Solid wood bed making process

Leg practice. The key to the production of solid wood beds is the bed legs, and the design of the bed legs is generally very ingenious, so you don't need nails or wires.

So, how to make this leg? I've been thinking about it for a long time. It is not realistic to go to the market and buy large square pillars and cut them, because many saws are currently unable to cut such thick wood. Even if the two sides are cut, it will take a lot of effort to dig out a groove. Later, I carefully studied the practices of others, in fact, everyone is basically sticky. Others glue it more hidden, and after the glue is done, the seams are cleared. I'm more obvious with this one. It's also to blame that the wood side that the home depot bought back was not a right angle in the first place. But then I didn't think it was ugly.

Steps: 1. Cut off the three pieces that make up the legs.

2. Apply wood glue.

3. Hold it with a clamp overnight, or press it with a heavy object.
