A few more pics of the Mission style bed build.  Danl

When I sawed the Head and Foot board rail checks, I used my TS tenoning jig.  The boards cleared the ceiling by ½.” 

 

I used my TS with a flat bottom blade to make the tenon shoulders.

 

I decided to have two tenons for the wider rails instead on one.  I used a jig saw and a chisel.

 

Trial dry fit.

 

 

I made (4) corbels and used a routing template to help clean-up the rounded profile.  I will use splines to help attach the corbels to the bed legs.

 

The bed spindle are located by using spindle strips.  The strips were match made using a dado stack on the TS.

 

A few more dry fit pics.  The footboard was done the same processes. 

 

 

That's going to be one handsome bed. Great job.

 

Not sure if that's a King or Queen but I hope you have plenty of help carrying it to it's resting place.....that is one sweet bed!

It is a queen size bed.   I just hope the box springs fits inside of the rails.  I could not find any plans that were for a queen size using a box spring.  So, I used my best guess.  Yes, it will be heavy.   Thanks   Danl

Thanks Dan for the pics, tips and taking us along. Awesome craftsmanship going into this build.
