Surely you just burglarize a building site.

This might be a start… 😀

Its not actually scaffold. Its kee klamp or kee lite (note spelling for google). Available from RS or stage suppliers amongst may others eg http://uk.rs-online.com/web/b/kee-lite/. Pallets freely available. Scaffold planks also free or cheap if you get condemned ones. You’ll need a decent electric sander (and some dust masks) as the wood will be rough.

TBH I’d just get twice as many pallets and stack them on the floor for a similar industrial look but zero expense.

It’s key clamp not scaffold.

Cheers pp…..

I have had a quick look on builders merchants no real joy…

For pallets, go to almost any trading estate and go to goods in of a few units. Ask for any pallets you can take. You’ll have enough in 15mins!

Similar looking tube clamps here;

Must…..

Kill….

Hipster……

here you go, had these in my watch list for a project I was thinking about: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/161267867354?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&var=460306049221&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Just a thought about the bed base itself though – it looks like it is going to be very firm. I have always built beds with sprung slats and buy them from ikea. You can get them in silicone rubber holders or in a metal frame, the former being cheaper. So much comfier than thick rigid slats. I am sure you could adapt the pallet design to use them, maybe by flipping the top layer upside down so the slats sit over a void or just space them up so they don’t impact the pallet.

Statistics….no they are doing it…..team building or house bonding…..at least they can disassemble it….

There’s a hell of a lot of sanding involved to get it to look like that.

im sure it will look nothing like that when finished unless they have done a fair bit of woodwork in the past – im not confident i could get it looking like that and ive done my share of woodwork (although no carpentry)

Also, by the time you sling a mattress on it, it looks as though it’ll be quite high.

There’s a hell of a lot of sanding involved to get it to look like that.

A rotary sander and dust extraction system would make it a pretty easy job…

They’re Euro pallets, which are a different shape and size to normal pallets.

Disassemble them and run the parts through a planer thicknesser to clean them up?

suddenly you see how 2200 pounds comes from what is just to he layman “scrap”

Be cheaper to buy a basic frame from Ikea.

Won’t have that artisanal twang some require, but you can sleep on it.

Hope you come up with a better design as that’s ugly.

One for the ‘seen on Pintrest/nailed it’ page.

Very ambitious. I bet it weighs a ton!
Make sure they get wheels which lock – that one in the photo looks like it might start moving if any ,err, vibration occurred. 🙂

Key clamps come in different sizes – so you don’t need to go full scarf-pipe size heavy duty – you can order them and matching sized tubes (they come in different diameters) from FH Brundel – who also deliver

You’d want good extraction if you’re going to be sanding the pallets – all those branded logos relate to phytosanitary regulations and mean the wood has been treated for pests to allow international shipping – that can mean the woods been heat treated or it can mean its been drenched in something nasty – the logo doesn’t tell you which.
