Making A Modern Bed with Traditional Joinery

I made the bed mostly from solid ash hardwood that I bought rough sawn. The rough lumber needs to be cut and planed down to make the smooth parts used to make the bed, starting with the rails. The panels of the headboard and footboard are joined to the legs with sliding dovetails. The dovetails mechanically hold the joint together, while also allowing the panels to expand and contract with seasonal moisture changes. I used traditional joinery rather than metal hardware to put the bed together. The rails have tenons on each end that goes through the legs, and a walnut wedge locks the parts together. The slats that support the mattress are 1/2" thick and 4" wide strips of solid hickory and these rest on cleats fastened to the rails. I cut spacer blocks to fit between each slat to keep them separated. The bowties were added to the headboard as a decorative element. I used water-based polyurethane to finish the wood, spraying on three coats with a light sanding between coats. This bed was designed to match the night tables I made a few months ago:    • Modern Design Night Tables with Drawers - ...   ▶️ Project plans for sale: https://ibuildit.ca/plans/ ▶️Support the work I do on Locals: https://ibuildit.locals.com/ ▶️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=865843... ▶️ Join my Makers Mob for detailed build tutorials: https://go.themakersmob.com/john-heis...
