    Thanks for putting this video together. I'm curious how heavy the side drawer boxes are when bring them in. I was thinking that since you don't see the top or bottom of the side boxes, that you could replace those 3/4" panels with a rectangular frame made from 2x4's to save weight while keeping strength. The sides and divider of the frame would still be 3/4" plywood so you could attach the drawer slides to them. Then finally, I'd use 1x4 furring strips as slats that would be supported by the 2x4 frame. I figure that would also save a bit of money since almost all of your plywood is hidden behind face frames and the mattress.
    Any reason the frame idea wouldn't work?

    • @gerberdesignco
      @gerberdesignco  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      That’s a super smart idea. I think that would definitely work. I know that if I ever remake this style I would do some things differently. Using 1x4s for slats is definitely on the top of my list. I appreciate the comment. 👍🏼

    Hey, great video and good work !
    I'm in the process of making a tailor-made plan using the same design because in addition to being French and therefore not having the same measurements, I have little space in the room to do exactly the same as you. Tell me, is it easily movable when fully assembled ? Or is it better to put a rug underneath to move it and have access to all the drawers ? aha I hope you understand the question.
    Thank you 😊

    • @gerberdesignco
      @gerberdesignco  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you! It is definitely not easy to move when it’s fully assembled. I would definitely put a rug under to make it easier to move if needed.

    • @gerberdesignco

      I don’t have an exact cut list I’m sorry. I just measured the size of my king mattress and made adjustments as needed.

    Do you have an instructions guide and supplies list for this bed frame build?
    Im looking to make this bed. 😁

    • @gerberdesignco
      @gerberdesignco  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I don’t I’m sorry. I just made the video. I think it was
      3 sheets of 3/4” plywood
      6 drawer slides
      About 3 or 4 1x8x10 boards for the face frames and drawer fronts.
      I would but bed slats instead of using 2x4s like it did. I’ve since added the bed slats and it’s way better.
      And 6 drawer pulls. But I would also not add those. I would cut out finger grooves instead. Save your ankles 😂😂

  • @TheDiamz
    @TheDiamz ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Can I ask why you would use bed slats instead of the wooden frames? Are they not as comfortable. I want to build the same but I wanted to use the frames instead but if it's not as comfortable, then I'll just use the slat. Any advice?

    • @gerberdesignco
      @gerberdesignco  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      No real reason. This was the first time I made something like this. If I were to make it again I would probably change those things.

    also what where the dimensions of the poplar boards ? i know they where 4/4 but the length and width ?

    • @gerberdesignco
      @gerberdesignco  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I think it was a 12’ board and it was about 8” wide.

    What do you mean by 25 board feet of 4/4 poplar in the supplies list?

    • @gerberdesignco
      @gerberdesignco  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hardwood is usually sold by the board foot. So it’s the Length + the thickness off the material to ge the price. But if you go to Home Depot they sell it in linear feet. I’m sorry I don’t really know how to explain it well via text.

    I prefer if the drawer handle was engraved or not sticking out. But nice design anyways.

    How much did you spend on the whole build or how much material did you use?

    • @gerberdesignco
      @gerberdesignco  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It cost me about $600-$800 depending on the type of wood you are using for the drawer fronts and the plywood.

    • @gerberdesignco
      @gerberdesignco  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It was just a 1/2” piece of plywood hold each box in place. It isn’t necessary tho. I would also recommend just buying bed slats and screwing them to the rest of the bed frame.
