  • Rather than pay the high price for a new Thuma platform bed, I decided to build my own using American Cherry hardwood.

    The bit about making the castle joint stronger is so important. Excellent craftmanship and video.

    Nice work. The splines at the castle joint for strength was genius and added to the look when stained. I love working with cherry.

      i don't understand how the splines add strength for the castle joint

    • @thepeacefulwoodworker9356
      @thepeacefulwoodworker9356  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The splines are positioned at a 90 degree angle to go against the wood grain. Otherwise the notch in the joint will break along the grain.

    Check your DeWalt Compund Miter saw, models DWS779, DWS780, & DWS790 saws were recently recalled for a safety issue. If it was manufactured between 2019-2022, it has a plastic rear guard assembly that can shatter or break exposing the saw blade creating a laceration risk. If it was made before that, it should have a metal piece not prone to the same failure.

    Great idea to rotate the grain in the castle joint! I was about to run into a similar project and this video happened to be in my feed. Was glad to see it!

    • @Kaodusanya
      @Kaodusanya 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      what happens if you dont have that spline in the castle joint. There seems to be more than enough distribution of stress in the joint. Also I bet its fine with a table, you don't usually have 300 pounds of weight plus and mattress on a bed all the time.

    • @joek511

    • @joek511
      @joek511 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@Kaodusanya Weight is not the issue. Just a little lateral movement can snap the tab at the end right off. So he added the cross grain going up and down. Then cut the notch. Like splitting wood. It splits easy with the grain but not against it.

      Remember to turn on the air conditioning when working in your shop and there will be minimal sweat. If your shop does not have AC, you should consider adding it. Makes it so much more enjoyable to work, when you are comfortable.

    Mesmerizing build! I've watched this at least a dozen times.
    Great idea for re-enforcing with a spline. Others have skipped this part with inevitable breaking.
    Love the using of biscuits for alignment of add on rails, strength!
    I've been practicing with a length of 6/4 reidwood and really knew I'd need a spline.
    Your method is really on the mark. Thanks
    My dimensions have been 1 1/8 thick to do a build up for the castle. Works okay but
    the overall dimension is 3 3/8. I think your 4 1/2 is better looking for a kingsize.
    How much of drop do you have for the mattress, I was thinking an inch would work and give
    the bed a 22-24 inch height. Your thoughts?
    Thanks again for such an informative and enjoyable video.

      I believe it was an inch and a half drop, but once I added the slats it was under an inch. I do experience a little bit of mattress drift, and I have to push the mattress back into place every so often.

    • @WW-hr1hd
      @WW-hr1hd 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      ​​​@@lucaguarro6116 The spline is arranged so that the grain is at 90° compared to the rail. This prevents the end of the rail at the notch from splitting off along the grain.
