DIY Loft Bed 

There is also a version of the scaffold end frames that is adjustable, anywhere from 3 feet to 5 feet, so that it would not leave a gap depending on which size mattress you selected. Most stores don't stock it, but usually the pro desk can order them in for you. With the 5 foot frames, if the goal was to re-use as much as possible, it may have been better to simply purchase a second (and third) scaffold deck. 3 of them would be just under 60 inches, which would be the size for a queen mattress.

I can imagine this design becoming the next college fad, especially for art students, you can hang an easel off of one outside end; just a thought. Another great idea.

is that bed strong enough for netflix and chilling 😂😂

PLEASE film the build of your new house. PLEASE!

Great idea but I would drill a few holes in the plywood to give the bottom of the mattress some ventilation so it doesn't get funky and moldy.

This is going to be so much cheaper than buying a queen size loft frame.

This would be really good for small apartments, minimalists and minimalists with small apartments

Looks amazing but wont the pipe legs leave horrible marks in the floor?

I wouldn't trust my self sleeping in there, I would most likely fall off the bed during the night, even with that rail installed 🤣

This channel is going to make New Yorker go nuts, specially the ones who live in the city.

I've always wanted a loft bed. Especially due to my small house I think it'd be great because of the usable space underneath when you need every inch of space in your home for storage and stuff.

"guys we're out of scaffolding".. "fear not... come with me to the bedroom"

Never liked scaffolding more. Awesome!!!

10/10 Would build, if i had power tools and hands.

It’s 11:25 and I’m watching a video about how to make a loft bed from the comfort of my loft bed

Great secondary use for scaffolding... I have some old scaffolding behind my garage, I might need to clean it up and build something w/ it! 🤓👍

Now that's industrial.

Did this. You said to use 1/2" plywood, however the MetalTech scaffold walk uses 5/8" plywood for a perfect fit.

The wardrobe thing makes it look chic.

That bedside table was inspired!! Awesome

Really cool design, but you should make sure the mattress is able to ventilate from the bottom. If a mattress is put on a closed of surface like you did here there's a high risk of mold forming inside the mattress.

I don't think he knows what Netflix and chill means.

this was one of your best videos and most clever use of industrial supplies. Thanks for the idea!

I’m super tempted to do this... it would also give me an excuse to get a double mattress.

I’m trying to figure out how to develop and build my own portable loft bed with ease if disassembly. This is so inspiring that I’m willing to try some semblance of the design. The only thing that I didn’t like aesthetically was the stabilizing crossbars in the back, but the ingenuity and innovative transformation/repurposing was very convincing. I think I may reconsider using scaffolding to achieve my LEGO loft bed design because of all the options you presented. Thank you. 👌💪🏽✅

This is a great idea! I was thinking of doing a loft bed for my daughter's room when she's old enough. This would make it super easy.

Ok this is a great idea. So clean looking 👍👍👍

My god that alarm caught me off guard. Need a warning next time lol

I'm so doing this. I have like a studio and this will save space. Thanks

Pretty Cool! Only issue is that the bottom of the mattress isnt breathing. That's a quick way to get mold. Just a heads up!

The video which you need to see when you buy new house and there is no money for furniture ... Been there done that ✔️

How would you make a platform for a full size mattress? Great idea and video!

I already thought about making a bed of scaffolding. But my idea just mount them normally. your idea is so much better.

DAMN. I needed this video like a year ago! I love it!

That's even cooler then how you described it on the podcast! Awesome job!

When you have elevated work to do, but don't want to get out of bed....... another great idea y'all👍🏾

You should drill some large diameter holes in the plywood so the mattress can vent. It’ll make a difference on those warm J tree summer nights.

I love those chucks!

HomeMadeModern makes the best commercials I've ever seen *no sarcasm intended.*

Love this idea, even if I had money for something fancy I’d like something like this better 😁

Saw your guest appearance on This Old House. A tough crowd to impress. We are going to adapt your plans for an outdoor concrete + cedar kitchen island to make a smaller bathroom vanity to fit a sink we got for next to nothing at a Habitat for Humanity Restore. Your designs are great. Thanks

This idea is AWESOME... and dare I say EPIC!

This is cool. I would do this but I have no building skills. I would probably make the bed collapse when I got on it lol.

Awesome video! I’ve been on the road a lot lately, and have been blasting through the podcast. You guys are killing it!

Wow congrats on buy a lands! It is so nice for you and good luck!

@HomeMadeModern How much did this cost in total?

smart and creative. i like the idea. keep on keeping your bar high.

Awesome idea best in years

how much did it all cost

Man, u r my new hero! This idea was just great!

Great repurpose of already existing material. Very clever!

Nice build Ben, Great idea and use of the scaffolding.

i like anything that is modular and industrial.. so great make.. :)

I work with scaffolding a bit, how much wobble did you guys get at night?

What’s the max weight for something like this. Great space saver for small bedrooms

This is perfect for cleaning and organizing

I would either fall off the bed at night or bump my head on the little night stand 😵😂

I need more information, i am legit planing on doing this.

Good integration of sponsor in the video almost felt like part of it

I live for your videos. I have made so many things inspired by you guys!

Simpli Safe needs some scorpion and spider detectors if you're in the desert Ben. Also, that alarm demo set my two dogs off lol. This is great I've wanted a loft bed since my apartment off-campus is tiny :(

Great video, man! I’m looking forward to your house project!

love love love this idea! definitely want to try this out

May I ask how tall the room is?

Love this project man. Inspirational ideas...

dont the feet need something to spread the load more since theyre a bit narrow and theyre carrying a bed and 1 or 2 ppl ?

Absolutely brilliant!

Super clever! Love it

Love the bed idea that's cool

What a creative idea!🤙🏻

Super cool 😎

Just brilliant man!

Some really neat ideas! Great build!

Well done! Very well.

This is awesome! Well done!

mais um grande projeto desse canal...abraços do Brasil

Nice

Nice project Ben! & Jessie! Thanks for sharing the video with us.😎👍JP

Wow!. Haven't seen anything new in a while from you guys. 👍

I see you getting your sponsoring on. 😉 SimpleSafe got game 🤣

What was the final cost?

Nice! I am impressed

That alarm made my cat jump off from sleep and even I

it looks great ❤️ totally going to make one for my room

Great idea and great job.

You should open up an Etsy store it’d be awesome!

sometimes i wish ben is my brother. Sure does he can build whatever i want. ben you are crazy ! bought a land and when you rent you don't buy any furnitures but build them. man ! ahhahahha

Thanks for the tutorial

For that bedside laptop stand, I would try to find a way to make it angled instead of flat and have a wood bracket lip or something on the bottom to keep the laptop on there.

Really cool!

If I was single I would do this in my house. It would be cool to take for a car camping setup too

genial

Can you try to make a workout station using Scaffolding?

Excelente video , gracias por compartir

Man, I wish I was handy enough to build something like this...

Genius! Subscribed!

Frickin Amazeballz!!!!

I've been thinking of doing something like this in my bedroom. Creating a mezzanine space for sitting/sleeping. I've contemplated the idea of welding some 1.5"-2" square steel tubing together to make a frame and then using plywood to create a floor, but something like this would be a great alternative, probably a lot cheaper, although not as customisable as if I were to make it from my own design. I wonder if they have these in the U.K :/

Great idea & build!

Looks so cool
