After nine years with the old bed and the fact that it doesn't fit properly in the new Ford, I decided it was finally time to build a new one. This new bed is the same basic style, just slightly larger in length, width, and height.

I think a painting the bed navy blue would look good. Adding a pop of color that would look good with the gray interior....

@CrazyQuady 28 дней назад

I'm considering a blue tinted gray stain. I don't want paint though because I like to see the woodgrain

I just posted the same thing before seeing your comment. Great minds think alike.

@cynthiadriver9781 28 дней назад

At 19:50 it kinda looked like a coffin lol..I'd stain it lighter shade of gray to pop from the dark interior ✌️

@JeanneAgolli 28 дней назад

I agree with you. You don’t need drawers. More trouble than they’d be worth. My sweet husband was not in any way a handyman! He used to fix the toilet with twisty ties! lol. We made it thru 53 years until he passed away 10 yers ago. Looking forward to see you camping with your snazzy new bad. A new expression I’ve picked up lately. “ Not too shabby”.😊

@seemorebucks4186 11 дней назад

A little tip: if the screws are long and you dont want to predrill or cant. Dip the tip in some Vaseline and viola! I promise you!! 😅

@CrazyQuady 11 дней назад

Really!? I'll have to try that

@tumsfestival 27 дней назад

Your "project" videos are always informative and entertaining. And you're right about not adding drawers. You'd constantly be moving stuff off the floor every time you needed to open them. The lid design is perfect.

You know Mike, You are really talented. I've seen you build and create quite a few things over the past couple of years. Just think if you went into the truck camper bed building business. I bet people would pay a lot of money for something like this! I bet it will be much more comfortable.

@hollyondrias602 28 дней назад

Heck yeah!!!!

@gregkrueger331 26 дней назад

I would wrap the sides with regular gray speaker box carpet to match the bed rug and topper liner. Nice job either way.

@CrazyQuady 24 дня назад

That would look nice but it's more carpet to trap dirt etc

@Iam1869 27 дней назад

a small slide out kitchen would be sweet...self stored...eliminates a tote...would only have to use half of it and in inclement weather you could raise the whole thing and cook inside and have counter space then have a small camp chair opposite

@anthonybattaglia5937 27 дней назад

You should get the old truck out and give Mrs Quady a primo parking spot in the driveway! Lol! Great build on the bed! Plenty of space to store items.

@CrazyQuady 27 дней назад

@axeamaniac4490 27 дней назад

I would have done yellow for the wood. Add some color, and it will add an open feeling when you're inside.

@olD_Eazy681 28 дней назад

I think the bed would look good with a white stain. It matches the truck and will add some pop to the black and grey.

@CrazyQuady 28 дней назад

That's not a terrible idea, I never even thought about white

@olD_Eazy681 28 дней назад

@@CrazyQuady I think it will look classy bro. Especially when you build the cabinet to match. Maybe add a blue led strip? I don't know why I'm giving away the ideas I have for the build I want to do after I finish my Harley LMAO

@edwardm438 27 дней назад

Dark walnut stain. Would look cool

@Street-Shred82 27 дней назад

Hey Quady, I know you already have the bed built, but just a useful tip for ya next time you build something... If you don't want to split your wood or mess with pre drilling all your holes, you can just run the screw in counterclockwise for about half an inch, then run it in clockwise and it shouldn't split your wood. Not sure why or how it does it, but works for me everytime and saves a ton of time. Cheers🍻

@CrazyQuady 27 дней назад

I might have to try that 😂

@Toltecgrl 27 дней назад

Came out nice! Plus having a drawer would get in the way. Because if you cook inside when it’s raining and you have your cooler or other stuff out, you won’t be able to pull the drawer open. The neighbors probably thought you were building a coffin 😀 If I was your neighbor I would look out my window saying what’s that dude up to? 😅 And where is his wife? Sorry I’ve been watching too many Datelines 🫣🤦🏽‍♀️

@user-hb5qp1tu8z 19 дней назад

I'd go low to zero VOC coatings, paints and stains can off gas for a while and in a confined space like that it's hard to get away from the fumes. Vermont Natural Coatings would be the only place I know of with zero VOCs, although there may be others.

I have a custom built bed with storage and opposite storage boxes that fit a F250, 6' 8" bed. Free, in Norman Ok. Available 4/28 to 5/5. Don't mean hijack, but I hate to trash it. I spent 800. on material alone.

@Willytwoscoops 27 дней назад

Love how that came together! I didn’t think about the airflow issue and makes total sense. Drawers on that setup don’t make sense as you can get to the stuff under it pretty easily

@carrievornkahl6442 27 дней назад

I see lots of space for you to put stickers now!!! All along the faceplate and when you lift the lid, the underside of the lid!!

Great video my friend. Awesome job on the bed. Looks great just need a mattress now. Yall got a chance of severe storms and tornadoes tomorrow highest chances are down in OK though. Be careful out there. If you ever need help with the storms I got you. I would never want to see you get yourself hurt trying to catch a Nader. You know what would be cool is making a tiny camper out of the trailer. I'm thinking once I get a new landscaping trailer I'll turn my current one into a mini camper. Cheers drinking one for you bud. See you in the next one.

@steddyk 27 дней назад

I’m a pretty new subscriber to the channel, that bed looks really good. If you went with a drawer all your stuff would get wet having to jump out to open it since you camp a lot in storms. I just put together a rig in a ‘22 Duramax 3/4 ton and I used a disc-o-bed cot that slides over the wheel well. All my totes fit underneath. Everything can be taken out in minutes to convert back for truck things.
