    Awesome, simply gorgeous, it took me a couple of looks to realize that the bench is attached to the footboard, very clever.

    Bravo, Garry! Excellent wood selection and utilitization. The birch/cherry combination is sweet, and I really like the arched design.

    VERY VERY NICE. I was wondering if you would share any information on how you finished the bed. I didn't see anything on the referenced page that described that. I really like how the finish came out.

    The design is excellent and the execution looks immaculate. Attaching the bench to the foot board is a fantastically clever idea. Bravo!!!

    Garry, I can’t think of any superlatives that haven’t already been used, so I’ll repeat,

    WOW!

    Gary,

    I can't add much, except echo the congratulations! Your work is simply stunning. I love the curly birch, and it blends well with the cherry.

    Simply outstanding!!!!

    great

    Man every time I come to this site I learn something. Your bed is awsome I especially like the way curly Birch panels contrast with the cherry. Super project.
