This twin size high bed plan is a modified
version of our Queen High Bed Storage Plan
#04-212.
(For a shorter storage beds with one row of drawers see our Mate's Twin Bed Plan
#03-202). It is very practical as it converts
unused space into an under-bed dresser! A sturdy frame and platform support contain the mattress, thus eliminating the need for that space-wasting box
spring. The spacious drawers, six per side, use ball bearing drawer slides to
ensure smooth and long lasting operation. You may choose to have drawers on
only one side if the bed is to lie against a wall. Drawers are constructed
using dado/rabbet joinery.
The bed is built using plywood and
hardwood products and incorporates simple joinery techniques.
Most of the fastening for the bed frame assembly uses
corner zinc braces and screws, thus allowing for easy assembly/disassembly.
We'll show you how to easily create the simple fluted lines and dentil trim
that adorn this piece of furniture.
This bed will accommodate a twin (long) size
mattress in the range of 39" by 80". Note that extra space around the mattress is allotted for
bedding. The bed has a mattress height of approx. 29" when using a 6 1/2" thick
mattress. Some people may find the assistance of a
bed step stool useful for
getting in/out of bed.
