Good job on the bed! And I especially like the occupant of the bed at the end! He (she) seemed very happy with the bed as the tail was really wagging! lol!

I’m planning on doing this myself... 13 y/o, did some research and this will cost $661+ and my parents aren’t willing to pay for any of it... check back in about 7 years to see the progress

I'm no carpenter and do not pretend I want this bed, but it has been fascinating to watch your work. Thank you.

You should keep a white wood panel inside of the crawl space so in case there is an intruder, you can hide in there and if they look inside the cabinet you can put the panel against the hole so it would look like an empty cabnet

I'm watching this on Father's Day!! Happy Father's Day to all the wonderful dads out there! You do so much for us that we don't appreciate enough. Thanks for always being there even when we might not give you enough credit for the things you do. And thanks for always being there to support us through thick and thin! Shoutout to all Fathers!!!!!

I love the idea for a loft or attic. And I bet some kids would totally love it! I know I would have when I was younger! Thanks for sharing. Very cool!

Awesome hack. 👍😎👍 The dog wagging its tail at the end made me smile. 🤗

Am I the only one that wants to make this solely because underneath the bed is like an awesome fort?

My fav part of this vid was seeing the dog on the bed
