Building A Four Post Bed 

Congratulations on your new child. I will keep you ALL in my prayers. You are, I’m sure, a Great Dad. Very Nice bed also.

Love that there's no talking. Watching you work is enough.

Beautiful design and craftsmanship. Always learning new tips and techniques, also good to see you cut your mortise and fit the tenons, I always hear no you cut the tenon first so seeing a pro/ classic educated craftsman doing it makes me feel really good : ) Because I’m the type that what ever works best for you that’s fine. Take Care and can’t wait to see the new addition.

I love watching you work, its so soothing. You do everything with such grace.

Your work is always great, Andy and this is no exception.

Hey, thanks for showing the process. I particularly liked how you pinned the tenons for the headboard....I've been looking for ways to allow for wood movement with a laminated headboard. Now I know!

Thanks for sharing, Andy! Best to you and yours!

Absolutely beautiful work! That bed turned out amazing, I've been thinking about building a bedroom set for the wife. We've had ours since 2010...

I am amazed at the progress that you have gotten done. This is an awesome process to watch. God Bless You!

I'm finally building my wife the bed I promised 40 years ago. Better late than never. Nice build. Congrats on the new baby.

Beautiful work man! So cool!

Thanks for the video ! What a nice work!

Verry nice build. LOVE the classical inspired modern design.

you are truly a skilled carpenter, love your vids.

Two versions of the old saying. "Happy wife, happy life" and "Ain't Mamma happy, Ain't nobody happy." Both mean the same, keep the most important person in your life happy!

Another great build from a local master. Always interesting to see your approach to traditional furniture crafting. I am constantly in awe. We are doing a 4 post bed and I certainly rely heavily on more modern tools (aka CNC technology, festool, etc). I also do not have your hand working skills with chisels and planes! Always make me ponder if modern technology is considering cheating or perceived as a lower standard of craftsmanship. Anyway, another nice job Andy!

Awesome job Andy!

Hey amazing bed, congrats on the kid! Also FYI I been sleeping on memory foam for years. You really need to lay a solid plywood platform down. If not the bed confirms to those slates and can actually hurt you in the end. Hope that helps man :) amazing build super inspired the way you bolted the legs on with the tenons is great idea. I may do that on my bed build.

That mortiser is such a time saver. Once again Andy., Love the work you do. Happy wife, Happy life bud.

Turned out beautiful well done

Andy, when I was a kid I spent all my summers on my Aunt and Uncles farm in N. Central Arkansas. In the old log cabin, which was built shortly after the Civil War, there was my great great grandparents bed which was made out of Hickory, but it had no nails or screws. It was held together with wooden wedges and pegs. Have you ever made anything like that?

Very nice design. Congrats on number 3 on the way.

Perfect. Best wishes 😊

“Happy wife, happy life” great build Andy. Looks great.

Love the frame! great job! have to say though Casper gets a thumbs down from me, I liked mine for maybe 200 days I have had it for 2 years now. I need to get a new bed.

nice work!

Bela cama, bem estilosa parabéns! 👏👏👏👏

This is such nice work. Hell of a good job. BTW it's happy wife happy life

Great job

That is some fine woodworking, I’m interested to know how you connected the rails on top of the posts

I just picked up an old mortiser like yours. How are you liking it so far?

Beautiful job on the bed. What type of wood did you make it out of?

You are the best bro.

thank you

Great video, but even greater design, I love it...can I ask was your design process?

amazing video but I wanna ask you something ??? do you have an Amazon link for the bed bolts and nuts?? where I can found it

Hey Andy, pro tip for ya! Laying something flat underneath your mattress on top of the slats is a MUST! By leaving the slats exposed you’re causing your mattress to lay on an uneven support system. This causes the gapped parts to lack the structural integrity they require to give you the good nights sleep you both deserve. Since there isn’t a base, sidewalks, coil core, or any other structural component, the foam just sinks right into those weak spots. If you lay something solid and flat underneath your Casper mattress I’m sure you’ll notice a difference right away!

Hey I’m starting my own little workshop and crafting things and I’m wondering what wood I should buy for stuff such as plant pots cabinets u know simple things like that I heard pine is pretty good anyone?

Hi great video love to watch you making everything. Can you send me a link to the bolts you used please

Custom AR hat looking baller!

Awesome bed man, that Casper looks alot lighter than our purple mattress.

Haha haha!!! Can't stop laughing..... "You know the saying, a happy wife is a good thing. I think that's a saying." Haha Happy wife happy life buddy!

What type of wood did you use for this bed? I’m sort of new to woodworking and would like to make one in the future. I’m not sure if I should use pine or a harder wood.

Casper has no hassle on the return. But how do you send it back? In my experience, once it's expanded, there is no sending it anywhere. Does casper somehow let you bring a fully expanded king size mattress to UPS (how would i get it there in the first place?) and ship it back to Casper? Need details here.

Do you have is sketchup file of the chairs that are in the background?

great job on the bed I think it goes a happy wife makes for a good life

You may want to decrease the distance between the slates. That bed is 100% foam so, you may notice the mattress sinking between them over time.

That's some nice oak (I think?). What did you use for finishing?

Good video

What is the next machine you are going to refurb? I think you should look for an old crouch/ritter edge sander.

Great work sir! Best of luck on the birth, prayers for you and your wife (mostly your wife!)

Happy wife is a happy life is the saying you may have been thinking of. Awesome bed though

Nice! What species of wood?

Qual o nome desse produto que você passou na madeira no final do vídeo? ? #ótimo vídeo

What router bits are you using... they look extra long

Happy wife is a happy life😂

Andy, I may have missed something but will wood movement be a problem in the headboard? I saw you glued both tenons in place. Is rift sawn white oak stable enough across that width? Please don't take this as a criticism of your work, because it is outstanding.

Sponsored by Casper, every ad during the video, Purple. RU-vid with the jokes.

How come you didn’t rip down that post on the table saw?

Andy, now i'm going to build my bed selfmade. Thank you for the inspiration and the " how to "

the website is not working.

Where do you get the bed frame bolts?0

Is this scale-able to a twin sized bed?

Buiulding a four post bed Was I the only one who caught that?

Happy wife happy life pretty fricken awesome Andy

Happy wife. Happy Life. 😊

Love your vids Andy 10/10

Happy wife, happy life. :)

Wait...my wife wants a bed. The bed is for sale? Cmon man. Let her keep the bed

Andy good vid and good luck on the upcoming birth

Nice!

Use your domino we one of their dominos and that will give you an idea of how to fit joints

"Every morning there's a halo hangin From the corner of my girlfriend's four post bed I know it's not mine but I'll see if I can use it for The weekend or a one-night stand" sorry first thing that popped in my head lol great work as always!

6:35 haha the camera got hit- 6:39 AH

Happy wife happy life* or happy spouse happy house for all you people that may be "offended"

A happy wife is a good life

Happy wife happy life

Gidday Andy the 4poster bed was beautiful a simple but elegant design. Just one thing Andy I'm not quite sure how to say this Andy coz I love watching you work Ive been watching it from day one it's, kinda funny coz I'd already watched a project you were working on then Mr Matt demolitia carriker said go follow this guy & well a lot of us did, you're an amazing, talented dude Andy but do you think it's right that we should have to pay to hear your voice. Either way mate I will still watch every vlog you put out for those reasons I outlined above, love your work brother. RustyinOz

It’s happy wife happy life but close enough

Joints are just a little too tight, you need room for glue

"happy wife, happy life"

"Every morning there's a halo hangin From the corner of my girlfriend's four post bed" When I saw the video title this song immediately got stuck in my head... God I forgot how awful this band was.

Rad.

$4,400.00 bed wow very nice just not affordable

Happy wife, happy life.

The title😂only thing more impressive would be a three post bed

Hi there

Hi first

Just give it away...

👍👏👏👏👏👏💓🇮🇹 share on Facebook

Komentario número 7

Whats the point of the posts? I think it would look a lot better without them. I mean its still a great piece but those posts make it look like it was build in like the 1800s

Seriously, I have never watched one of your videos and not enjoyed it.

That's not making shit , all machines lol.....lol...u can't build man.joke....
