The downstairs guest room in the cabin didn't have a proper bed. It looked like this:

We started construction on a log bed to replace this 'platform bed' about three weeks ago. The plan was log posts and redwood headboard and footboard. The mudroom doubled as a project room.

Here's Kyle working on the headboard. Yes, he did most of the work, but I helped.

I'm pretty sure between this project and the desk job, we used every tool we own. Kyle made a neat jig for making the mortises in the headboard with a router.

The headboard and footboard with and without stain.

The new bed frame in its new home...we put it in the upstairs room instead of the downstairs room.

Made up...
