BUILDING A MURPHY BED
What happens here
Using 1x4 MDF (Medium-Density Fiberboard) strips, measure and cut pieces to form an outer frame on the front of the Murphy bed. Cut additional pieces at specific angles (e.g., 46.5-47.5 degrees) to create the 'X' pattern within each panel of the frame. The presenter demonstrates a technique to achieve angles beyond 45 degrees on a miter saw by using a spacer. Attach these MDF pieces using wood glue and a brad nailer.
Goal: Create and attach a decorative farmhouse 'X' pattern trim to the exterior of the Murphy bed cabinet using MDF strips.
