I Built A Futuristic Loft Bed For My Kids

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

The presenter continues building the side wall structure, creating angled supports for the top bunk and incorporating a sloped 'staircase' element. This part of the build is complex due to the angles required for the futuristic design and the need to accommodate electrical components. He builds a small, angled box structure to support the top bunk on one side. The presenter expresses frustration when realizing initial measurements for a side panel are incorrect, requiring adjustments. He attaches the vertical and angled supports using wood glue and screws, ensuring a strong and stable structure. This framing establishes the lower bed area, which will house the desk and gaming setup.

Goal: The remaining bunk bed frame, including angled supports and a sloped 'staircase,' is assembled, facing challenges with precise cuts and ensuring stability.

a good place. Here's the game plan. This is just a little brace. I'm going to pick this up on my own, sit it on top, carefully come in, put some screws in, and then use this extra 2 by 4 as a brace, which will allow for me to figure out how I'm going to construct the sides of it. I have some ideas. They're pretty good. >> Let's make sure we still have plenty of room for door access. Good. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. Uh it's a lot higher than I thought it would be actually. 35 >> What are you doing down there?
