@@Danielism maybe hes willing to pay $500 a year if he sees value in it? Why tell him to forget about it when you're not taking into account his situation. Price is relative.
@@TheHMSBros you have to verify every year now, and it requires uploading a current transcript/bill/something with both your name and the schools name as well as the date
I'm not sure if you take video requests/suggestions, but I'd love to see how some of your older pojects have held up and what would you do differently if you did the same thing again again. The project that jumps to mind is the custom drawer system in the back of your SUV.
Using blue painters tape to help block out and visual furniture placement is an excellent tip that I need to start using. Also that feature drawer for charging is a great idea!
I made a horizontal Murphy bed a couple of months ago for my guest room. It didn't turned out as beautiful as yours of course but it was my first big undertake and I feel kinda proud hehehe. You guys make it look so easy!! I really need to take your course for planning. Love your channel!
Josh planned this project for a few weeks and worked out all of the design issues in Fusion 360 before we cut a single piece of wood. We try to make efficient use of our time and that happens in the planning.
Y'all need a theme song for your secret builds. The "SECRET TUNNEL, SECRET TUNNEL" song from Avatar the Last Airbender kept popping into my head, lol...
Is this comment the reason this video popped up in my feed?? Because I was just searching for covers of that song like five minutes ago. (Go check out the I Kill Giants cover, it's sick)
I love watching projects at Josh’s place. His toolset and shop are super relatable. I absolutely loved this project, even if we had to see a motorcycle gathering dust in the corner 😉
Your channel is getting me through quarantine and is also the inspiration for what I might want to do when I buy my own house one day. You are so cool.
This is exactly what I was looking for today. Very nice build. A couple of questions though. First, why do all the edge banding if you were going to paint it anyway? Why not just a skim coat of spackle? Also, why not fill the pocket holes on the upswinging door panels? Last, is that a full size bed or queen? I'm looking to do one for a queen and need narrow column storage as well. Great design. Thanks for posting.
Awesome job guys! Really enjoy seeing the whole team get in on the project! First time in awhile I recall directly seeing Anthony! Shout out to Forby. We know you're still there!
11:11 Recess the USB hub far enough from the edge so devices can be plugged in with the drawer closed. It is a given at some point somebody is going to break a cable otherwise.
Oh man, thank you for doing this. We're expecting our first baby next Spring and our home office is going become the nursery. We had no idea how to move the office into the guest room and keep it functional for both purposes. This is EXTREMELY helpful!
I'm setting up a portable home, this is real eye opener, these type of units are available here in Australia via local businesses. Thanks for this video
This looks GREAT! We've been looking for some ways to use a room as a space that can be a bedroom, but also a playroom and this definitely inspires some ideas!
Not gonna lie, that kit IS pretty cool. Any time I've ever made a Murphy or Hide-a-bed I've always been working with basic stuff, so it's just been a rectangular box with a hinged lid and you mounted the bottom up against a wall. This seems much nicer, and definitely looks like it works better. I mean, the box bed I made worked fine as a bed, but it's not gonna win any awards.
At 11:00, if you had have made a recessed spot underneath the table top, you could have also epoxied in some hidden wireless charging pads. The charge field is actually fairly strong, and will easily make it through a couple of millimeters of wood.
This turned out great! This came at the right time as I'm getting ready to build a couple of lower cabinets for vanities in our bathrooms. You made the doors easy to understand and build. I've always been intimidated by building cabinets as I never know how much plywood I'll need or how to cut it to get the most out of a sheet.
Looks great. I could do with that for my small room. Would leave loads of floor space when folded away. Noticed you mounted the USB hub a little to far forward. The cables stop the drawer from fully closing. Too late now though 😊.
I have a lot of ideas for projects, but have a hard time getting them started. Your Fusion 360 course looks great. I’ve been wanting to learn and use a similar program, but just didn’t have the will to get past the learning curve. With winter coming, I can stay warm and learn something new.
Josh’s builds seem a lot more planned and mapped out with his fusion 360 plans, etc. A lot of Bobs projects lately had the idea but were like “I’m not sure how we’re gonna do this but we’ll figure that out as we go along” or something on that line lmao
When we do projects at Josh's house, they have to be more planned out because we don't have access to the same equipment. And planning and project management are some of his strong suits.
Cool project. Love having Josh on screen more. P.I. Workshop was one of my favorite channels when I first got into watching makers on RU-vid. No offense, Bob. I love you too.
Great video. I love the internal lighting and it's nice to see Josh doing more on camera. Was worried you wouldn't be able to use the USB charger with the drawer closed but you proved me wrong!
I wonder how many noticed that the usb hub seemed to close to the face of the drawer. When you plug a cable in, you usually leave them plugged in. Additionally some devices create additional light that you would like to hideaway. With the current design you can’t closed the drawer without damaging the usb connectors. Greater possibility is the drawer just won’t close with bigger connectors. Especially since the usb connectors are oriented vertically. Might want to consider setting the usb hub further back from the front ledge when mounting it. Or you could mount it on the drawer and bungee the cable to allow it to pull out without binding up. Just a FYI to future builders who are considering these designs.
Not sure if you guys are still around, this video was great. I just bought a house and building things is so inspiring to me. Just the detail of the cuts and the tools used was so informative, I feel like it all just clicked. I have an area that I want to use as an office/bedroom so this was the perfect video. I was like, "I have that tool, oh that's what you do with it." Thanks for the small details for a beginner, super helpful!
This is awesome. I had no idea they bad murphy bed kits to mount sideways like this. Opens up a big possibility to build one in my sons room for when his friends stay over.
@@7R15M3G1 I know the difference between the main shop, Josh's house, and the Farm. I just suggested that they deserve a larger space that is not bob's basement.
I'm in the process of installing a horizontal murphy bed, myself! How funny! Thanks for the tips on the cabinets, I was kinda worried about how I was going to do it.
Very cool! I didn't know Rockler sold those kits, I'll have to check them out. I've been dreaming of adding a Murphy bed to one of my rooms for a while now and they seem like the way to go. I appreciate the way you went with the secret power drawer. I'm hoping that nobody copies this project but chooses to any sort of power that slides with the drawer. Moving power cords are a big no-no. I wish you had mentioned that as note in the video, just so nobody burns their house down. Love the finished result!
of all the bloopers I was honestly hoping for, I was waiting for the one where one of y'all found the track plate and go "... it was here the whole time 😑" lmfao. it was the chekhov's gun of the episode y'all. That being said, super entertaining build, I love seeing complex builds like these come together 🙏
I like the bring-your-own-cord lifestyle, but a built-in (or even just included) Qi charger would be great. I also noticed the pocket-hole assembly didn’t go perfectly on the upper left linen cabinet, I feel like that’d draw my eye every time I entered the room... Any plans to plane/sand it flush?
I would love to do a murphy bed one day for our guest room. We have plenty of rooms in the house but I love the idea of a multi-functional/multi-purpose room
I feel like switching the office and the bedroom would have been a good idea. That way you don't have to walk through a guests bedroom to get to your office. The guest would have to walk through your office but that's a lot less intrusive than a bedroom.
Esta increíble este proyecto, admiro tus ideas y forma de realizar las cosas! Gracias por compartir. Saludos desde México! This project is incredible, I admire your ideas and way of doing things! Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Mexico!
All I could afford was a studio apartment. But I wanted home theater. So I installed a TV on the bottom of my Murphy bed. All I do is flip up the bed, and boom, bedroom is now a HT with 5.1 surround and a 75" screen.
I never thought that you could make horizontal murphy beds but that makes sense and it looks great. That motorbike looks pretty cool too by the way :) I'm surprised you didn't 3d-print some brackets for that usb hub, is it something you considered?
Looks great as usual only thing I can see is an issue with the location of the USB hub. Do you intend for it to be closed when in use, if so isn't too far forward to be able to plug anything in without the drawer being in the way? Otherwise, looking great.
11:32 I would have placed the USB hub further back from that front edge, so you can plug in a USB cable and still be able to close the drawer all the way.
at 7:51 I see lifted supports going across at 3/4 locations. It would use less plywood if you had just put one support right down the middle and then just laid the slats across.
The instructions are are easy to follow. The kit isn't as involved as the unit we built. Check out the link in the description for the link to the kit.
