Angle Bedroom Suite
This is a bed that was built a long time ago. It is from the kids furniture site. I started with the storage bed headboard and designed everything else from there. The angle concept of the headboard was transferred to the chest and desk pedestal. If I remember correctly, the customer choose the chrome feet.
The wood is maple with a clear coat finish only.
This was a fun project. I wish I could do more like this.

Custom Corner Desk
This is a desk that was built to match a bed that I built for a customer in June (see example). Actually I built the bed for their home builder. The customer wanted a matching desk.
Because of the space problems between a wall and window, I had to adjust my normal depth of the desk. When dealing with angles small changes can effect a lot of different areas. I put all the measurements in a spreadsheet and entered formulas in for all the variables. When I changed the depth, I see how if effects the spacing in the center. I played with the numbers until I came up with good ratio.
Normally I don't build my raised panel sides. I outsource them. I built them this time because I didn’t know the depth of the overall desk until too close to the due date. This desk was completed in August 2011

Hudson Bay Murphy Bed Ebony Finsh
More pictures of this bed can be found by clicking here.
This is the first time I’ve used the Minwax Ebony stain by itself. I’ve used it in combination with a dye to achieve my cappichino finsh, but never alone and on oak. This bed was built in February 2011. It is a version called the Hudson Bay Murphy bed. It is the standard Alpine version with some added moldings added to the face. This is that free add-on plans that I send with my do-it-yourself murphy bed kit.
This one I also added a couple 18” bookcases. They have a door at the bottom and adjustable shelves at the top. I added lights to both the bookcase and the bed section.

Baseball Wall Unit
This may look like one of the many murphy beds that I build but it is not. It is a standard baseball bed with a wall unit. I took the headboard of the baseball bed and surrounded it with a couple bookcases and light bridge. It was completed in February 2011.
The bookcases are built just like the ones I use on the murphy bed with the full length door and a couple drawers at the bottom. If you ever wonder why the drawers of this style bookcase never start at the bottom, it has a cubby hole. It’s there so there is not interference with the lower hinge and drawers. I think it give a nice little effect. You need somewhere slightly out-of-site to store them dirty cleats.
It is built mainly from maple with some MDF. The finish is pigmented lacquers.
The lights are controlled by a touch dimmer at the top of the headboard.
Here are some of the true Murphy bed styles: Yankee's Special Edition, Vintage Style

Contempo Murphy Bed
This is a murphy bed completed in December 2009. It is a new style, which turned out to be a popular one. I’ve build a few of these last month. It is a real simple one with a contemporary look I call the Contempo. This one has just one bookcase.
