How to Make a Bed out of Pipes

by on Mar 3, 2010

Instructabler jtwanderlust decided to make a bed. Out of pipes. As the article suggests, the project had its hiccups, but the outcome doesn’t look it. JT estimates that the entire thing cost $400, HOWEVER, with some modifications, that cost could be less. Here’s some of the supplies JT used:

  • EMT pipe
  • a multi-tool
  • an allen wrench
  • a level
  • tape measure
  • Kee-Lite fittings (JT says there are cheaper alternatives, but the look might not be the same)
  • a helper
