My kids have been asking for bunk beds for a while so after a while of drawing up some designs and finding pictures of what they wanted I can up with a design for head board and foot board that could be stacked down the road to make a lofted bed. (They want a “fort” down below versus a bed).
We went to the lumber mill and they choose cherry for the material so I got to work a while back on it. This also forced me to get a few machines up and running that I had been putting off. (12” porter Jointer and 12” parks planer) Slow progress due to my day job (I travel a lot of work) and other honey to do lists.
Legs are (3) 3/4” laminated boards to get to 3.25 thick by 3” wide. I have 1/4 in veneer that readers that will get glued to cover glue lines and have a wrapped look. For the middle I cut dado’s that once glued acted as the mortises for cross beams. Cross bears are 1-1/4 thick. 1” x 3.5” boards will cover the top.
Here are a few pictures.
