Default Progress on the Bed job, AKA actual woodworking

In other words, you've been lazy, lately. I see (first pic) the Supervisor in the background, probably having to prod you with a stick (or scrap board), to get things done.

I can, somewhat, identify with slower than normal work. The heat and older age laziness has deterred me from getting into the woodshop (no AC), but I have been doing some upholstery work, lately, in an AC environment.

Anyway I can see the light at the end of the tunnel and hope to deliver
in the next few weeks.


It's looking good. Surely, your customer will be pleased.

Questions?


Seems the bed will be fairy heavy, compared to a standard(?) bed. Just wondered how difficult is it to disassemble and transport. These days, I dislike lugging heavy loads, anymore.

Does the bed's body rest on the floor? Seems, I see some casters in some corners... I can't tell what that hardware(?) is, if it's harware. Or is the body supported by the foot & head boards, only.
