I never built anything before this! My First Woodworking Project as DIYTyler, Build a Toddler Bed!

A look back at how the first project I ever made as DIYTyler is holding up. Do we even have that project anymore, is it used? I build a few things before this project back in the day with my dad but no furniture. This was a build that was completed before I ever filmed anything for this YouTube channel.

As our family started to grow we needed some more furniture and for the price that stores were asking for items that I knew would not hold up. I started to investigate if a toddler bed was something that I could build. "I just need this one tool and I will be able to make this!" Famous last words...look where we are now.

So with a Kreg R3, a Sliding Kobalt Miter Saw, drill and sander I made this toddler bed for our eldest and we are still using it to this day, almost 9 years later. It is WAY overbuilt with 1x3 and 2x6s but it was the material I was able to work with at the time and, even though it's difficult to move around, the kids bed will last forever!

If you want the plans for this bed shoot me an email at DIYTyler@gmail.com and if enough people ask about them I can add them to my website.
