Materials:

7 standard EUR pallets (120 CM long x 80 cm wide) In Europe, all pallets are safe to use - just look for HT for heat treated. But i ordered a new pallets, so i'm fully sure that they are safe for health. If you will use old pallets, make sure your pallets don't have nasty stuff on them before you sleep on them.

Tools:

- Jananese Saw

- Screw driver

- Milling machine

- Orbital sander

- Vacuum cleaner

!!!You should protect your hands with rubber gloves, so wount damage them.!!!

Well let's start! We have to sand our pallets. Pallets are very rude, so we have to sand a lot. All flat surfaces i will sand with orbital sander. Other small part im sanding with my hands.

Protruding boards are cut off with a Japanese saw and sanded with orbital sander.

If I put 3 pallets together, their length is 240 cm. I need to trim the extra 40 cm. And sanding one more time ;)

I rounded all the corners with an Milling machine.

When tha paint dries up, its time to connect all pallets twogether. Headboard im attaching with 3 metal corners in first layer. Second layer i'm connecting with screws.

First layer of pallets i'm connecting with metal plates. First and Second layers in connecting with screws.
