    the author does like to from scratch, shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxD-QRFQz730FJEh4f9BYSf-nkIMIC9hL_ as another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us dont have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we wont be able to practice the full stack project, is still great.

    Best video I’ve found so far. Planning on building a Murphy bed within the wall of our guest room, one wall backs to dead space. I figured I could frame it out and fit a queen size Murphy bed or a full with storage.

    Good build, but I have a request. Your videos have become a lot of cool shots of cutting wood and putting things together but after watching I cannot wrap my head around what you actually did. Could you take more time on the informational side of how to do the thing you are doing that day? Would really help me, thanks!

    @fuffalobucker 3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    PAINTING TIP: A neat trick is to start painting the raised "X" all the way around each where you did the caulking. Then you can go either up/down or left/right. It will save you time, use less paint, and give you a great coat.
    Loved the build and all your videos. Keep up the great work!

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Awesome job! I use to have a Murphy-bed in NYC it was a full-size bed, as a matter of fact, I found it next to a dumpster, and it worked beautifully all I did was painted black to go with my black & white decor then. Prior to finding the Murphy-bed, I slept on my sofa. The best thing about owning a Murphy-bed is that during the day one can use the room as an office & at night to sleep. Stay Safe & Healthy...

  • @Jonacarpenter

    I would add some sort of lighting and a background on the inside of the Murphy bed to give it a nice appearance when it's open.
