Freestanding custom bed for mobile home

 This is the space i was asked to make a bed for. Its not quite 2 meters long.  The bed had to be 1.4 m wide.
 These are the legs. I  cut these by hand so the sides and ends would have shoulder to sit on to add extra strength.
 Cutting along the grain is always tiring , more so with a less than a new saw !

Here you can see the shoulders more clearly.


From this photo you can see how the sides and ends attach to the legs.
The finished bed frame. Note how there is no proper foot end or head board due to the width being so small ! The walls work just as well for a head board in this mobile home! It also means that the mattress will fit on the base !
