New project - bunk bed


Started a new project yesterday.  This is a twin over full bunk frame.  It will be done in 2 x 6's that are fairly rough.  The thought is for a boys room, it would be fun to use something that can/will take a beating.

I did this drawing in Google SketchUp in order to figure out the angle of the slanted support, and thought I'd post it, since I liked how it looked.  SketchUp 7 is a free program that can draw in 3D, and it can do quite a bit for a free program.  If I had the upgraded version you could move the object around in the picture and zoom in and out, which is pretty cool.  Someday, I'll upgrade.
