WIP Bed Board
The LOML decided she wanted to update some of the bedroom furniture so i was instructed to make a new bed head, tas Blackwood was the timber of choice so I obtained the required timber
Attachment 174337
and started work. I chose a design that would have raised panels, so far I have the board made just have to make the posts and fit it up.

I thought you just liked making beds, but you really are making a bed now!
I'm tuned in..
I know you believe you understand what you think I wrote, but I'm not sure you realize that what you just read is not what I meant.
Regards, Woodwould.

I have the bed glued up and sanded now next item of business is to polish it. Shame I was not allowed to use the eye bolts.

It looks the business.
There's no need for eyebolts; there's a good sturdy hitching post at each end.

The bed is a bed base set I got sick of banging my head on the wall so I decided the bed needed a head. There are some brackets that will fit under the bases feet to hold it all together. Originally Posted by Sawdust Maker
