In this video, I'm going to show you how to build a mid century modern inspired dog bed made out of white oak and walnut. What makes this dog bed stand out is the embedded tennis balls on the side. Overall, this was a pretty simple project, with a little bit of math involved for cutting the grooves for the tennis balls! Thanks for checking out the video and let me know what you think!

That is the coolest dog bed ever!
Thanks guys!
Sammy is a doll. Great work on this bed!!!
Now that's a really nice dog bed - great build and video Alex!
Thanks Ethan!
Looks great. If only my dog would use a dog bed!
Hah
Nice work!
Thanks!
awesome job on making her feel loved and confortable!
Thank you!
Color me intimidated. Nice work!
Haha
great project. My Golden Doodle Max approved and told me to say Hello to Sami..
Thanks!
Awesome build! Definitely think the grooves on the front make it pop!
Thanks!
I always look forward to your videos and the general loveliness of your creations. This was all the more special in view of its loving purpose.
Thank you!
Sammy is SO cute! She could be in the videos more often! The bed looks REALLY nice btw! A piece of art, as always! =]
Thank you! Yesss she’s a good girl! :)
Wow...amazing project. The bed is wonderfull and looks very cozy. Thanks for the video.
Bevelish Creations A very great presentation. Nicely detailed each step of the project.
Thanks!
It‘s great! Looks very nice! If your dog could talk, he‘d say that he is proud of you!
I hope she is!
That was a fast heart! :)
I love this design and idea. I plan on going to make some similar for my fur friend.
Beautiful dog, clever design, amazing finish! Keep it up, always love seeing new videos from you!
Thank you so much :)
Not at ALL a criticism...but I found it a little amusing to see Festool, Incra, Woodpeckers, Jessem...and a Ryobi jigsaw. I don’t think I’ve ever seen that combination. But hey, if it cuts, it cuts!
Yep if it works it works
Beautiful work...making a dog bed this weekend and needed some inspiration for design. Thank you!
Great job, as always, Alex! Love how creative you are and able to turn a “mistake” into a beautiful design piece 🔥
Thank you!
Wonderful!
Thanks!
Amazing piece of work. Thank you for sharing 🌺
Thanks!
What an awesome build! Lovely bed and what a cute dog!!
Thank you!
Great! I’m happy to see you back on TH-cam as before
I never left :) it’s just a hobby though so I don’t post once a week like others
@@BevelishCreations Oh ok! Anyway I enjoy a lot watching your videos and it woud be great to see more of your awesome work
Awesome job, and nice Maker Knife :)
Thanks!
It came out great! I have a Golden Retriever who looks about as old as yours, and I'm pretty sure she wouldn't be able to rest until she got the tennis balls out to play with, lol.
Thanks! Mine hasn’t shown much interest with the tennis balls haha
It came out very nice 👌
Dude. This is awesome! I was just thinking of making a bed like this for two of my girls. Now I have a couple of good ideas from you. Cheers!
Glad it was helpful!
It looks Incredible! 😍
such a wonderful video to watch, as always.
Thanks :)
Alex I really enjoy watching this great design you made, really happy with the results and how you explain all have a great day, from today I'm subscribed to your chanel
Thank you!
Such a nice bed, Great work! From at design POV, I really like the groves you cut in the front panel, but better than I think I would, if it had been Sammys name - good call. :)
Excelente!!!!
Thank you!
Great work
Thanks!
Nice work, Alex. The design looks great. Sammy looks really content with this too.
I did notice a little of the finish on the tennis balls, but that looks really tricky not to get any on. One thing of note though my good man, treat yourself to some nice chisels, you deserve it! 😁
That actually isn’t finish...Sammie started pawing at it and I couldn’t clean it off lol
Bevelish Creations. Oh. Lol. So she likes it a lot then.
Loved it!
Thanks!
I am curious on your choice of wood. Why walnut and white oak and more specifically any reason why white oak in only in the front panel, is it more appealing?
Outstanding job, I really enjoy this design
Thanks. There’s no reason other than I liked the look of them together and in that configuration
What are the silver clamping aids you used on the joints? Seems like a great way to get clamping pressure on miters.
They’re called “clamping Blokkz” and I got them from Rockler. But I’ve seen free files floating around that people use to 3D print
Love the piece! What type of finish did you use?
Thanks!i used arm-r-seal
💛
🙏
That bed is beautiful. What stain brand and color did you use? It looks very good
I used walnut and white oak :)
Really enjoyed the video. Makes me want to throw out the poplar one I made for my girl. She deserves walnut!
I’ve seen some gorgeous poplar!
Bevelish Creations I've seen some gorgeous VW Beetles haha for sure poplar can be gorgeous. I used it for all my drawer fronts and face frames on my shop furniture. But I don't think it's holds water to walnut. Just take the compliment man 🤣
Would you be able to include the woodworking plans you used for this dog bed?
I’ll work on these :)
Hey. Is the mattress custom made?
Hi Alex. Really cool! I noticed you set up your incra sled to the right of the blade. I was thinking of doing the same. Any particular reason you prefer that? Also, what are those cylinder holds you have clamped to the corners to help.. clamp the miters? Thanks!
I set it up on the right because I do a lot of angled cuts. I won’t be able to do that on the left side. Those clamps are called “clamping blokkz” and you can get them from Rockler. They’re pretty expensive. There’s a free file somewhere out there that you can download and 3D print them for free if you have a 3D printer
The design intent of something can be for all sorts of reasons. Aesthetics, function, etc.. I wonder what the reasoning was for lifting the bed (legs) which an old dog then needs to jump up onto.
It’s actually better to give old dogs elevated beds to reduce the amount of height changes when getting in and out of bed
@@BevelishCreations Interesting. How does a raised bed "reduce the amount of height changes"? The dog goes from floor to floor plus bed plus raise, as opposed to going from floor to floor plus bed. Seems like the raise creates a greater height change rather than a lesser one. I mean, that's what the word "raised" means right.
Please google this topic, there’s been quite a bit written about it.
I’ll just say, it’s the same as why it’s easier for us to get in and out of a bed that’s raised with legs and a box versus just a mattress on the floor
@@BevelishCreations I don't think it is the same. Watch the footage of a dog getting onto a bed, including Sammy in your vid. They move to standing upon the bed and then lay down. We generally do not jump up onto our beds and then move from standing to laying.
Same question as in your previous video...what is the jig that is attached to your fence in frame 7:52?
It’s by Jessem
I think that you should have kept the tennis ball whole, made a hole through the side of the bed to hold the balls in place, then you can take them out and use them to play with your dog. Just an idea...
My dog doesn’t really play fetch anymore. And even if she did, the balls would get really dirty really fast so I’d always end up getting new ones to put in. That’s why I didn’t want to do it that way
Which cross cut sled are you using?
I use both Incra 5000 and Rockler
Where did you get the mattress?
Amazon. There should be a link to it in the descriptions
Woodprix comes with very useful plans with all the details you need.
9:15 Careful, you're doing a climb cut here with the back of the router bit! If you need to make 2 passes, you should do the inside one first, then move the fence further from the bit for the second pass.
James Hamilton over at Stumpy Nubs did a video about this a few months ago: th-cam.com/video/0RK1JK8HPJA/w-d-xo.html
Hey thanks for the heads up. I noticed it while I was cutting it, but I'd already started so I just kept going haha
I started with Woodglut plans.
Try the best carpenters and woodworkers plans. Woodprix.
Very nice design. Where did you get the plywood with the thick veneer?
Which plywood with thick veneer? I think they’re all pretty much the same
