    Euro Beech and Cherry Headboard

    A headboard for our guest bedroom. This project has been on my honey-do list for a few years now. Finally got a round tuit. I told Mike (Shamrock) that I had finally finished it and was politely reminded of the "no picture - it didn't happen rule"! So here it is: pete

    King headboard- need design help

    We got a metal king bed frame to turn two beds into a king size bed for my daughter and SIL who will be staying with us for a month before they head overseas for their next posting. After setting it up, my wife decided the bed needed a headboard. My first thought was to whip up something...

    King-size headboard project

    I finished this one a bit ago, but forgot to post a picture. I needed to freshen the paint job to match some new bedroom furniture - that the LOML BOUGHT :no:! I think she got tired of waiting for the other pieces to get to the top of my project list. So anyway, here's the headboard... Dan

    WIP: Headboard

    Although it seems that all I can do is make tables, this is proof that I will do other work when asked:gar-La;. A friend wanted this headboard built but unfortunately he just wanted it in pine. Oh well, he's the boss. More to follow.

    Black Walnut Headboard

    I used a lot of the Black Walnut I bought from Jeff, on the 1st lumber run, to make the headboard shown below. That sucker is big. I had fun working with curves, but I am glad it is finally done. Feedback is appreciated. (This was done using a Woodsmith plan). Doug

    Claro Headboard - Gettin' it flat

    My first try at making a router sled to flatten the slab. It worked better than expected. I used a 1 1/2" bottom cleaning bit from MCLS (or MLCS, MSCL, whatever) and it did a great job. Very smooth cut with no tearout. I love that claro - think I'll have to make a trip to Kyle's to get a few...

    Headboard

    Headboard Question

    LOML wants me to cut out two headboards for single beds we have in the guest room. Just some 3/4 ply or MDF with an arched back that she will pad and upholster. Quick project. My question is about attaching it to the standard metal box spring frame. I was thinking of just doubling up the two...
