Just add 16 inches to the length of all the horizontal components: the 1x4s and 2x4s. The back support structures of a DIY king size headboard is the same as the queen size headboard. The plan below is for a king size headboard. How to adapt this DIY headboard plan to any size bed, such as a king bed, a twin bed, with or without headboard, etc. We laid the panel of slats flat on some 1/8″ to 3/16″ thick plywood and propped the panel up a bit to create an offset when attaching panel of slats to the posts.īelow is our finished DIY headboard! Because it is integrated with our DIY bed frame ( tutorial here), we have those brackets and a 2×6 bottom rail. You can have the panel flush with the posts, or create a little offset. We find the screws easier to use in this case.Īttache the center panel to the posts using 1.25″ and 2.5″ Pocket Hole screws as indicated on the plan. You can also use wood glue and nails to attach the braces to the planks. Hold the wood in place with bar clamps, screw the 1×4 braces at the back of the headboard to the wood planks using 1″ to 1.25″ wood screws, 2 for each slat on each end. ![]() Once identical, the panel is perfectly squared. If the measurements aren’t the same, push the long corner towards the middle of the structure until they even out. These little spacers will give the wood rooms to move.Ĭheck for square by measuring the entire panel from corner to corner. ![]() If these 1x4s as placed tightly together during a dry month, the headboard can bulge when air moisture goes up. If you add all the 1×4″ slats, we have a total of almost 1/2″ of wood movement. A 12″ wide board can expand or contract by 1/8″. Wood fibers swell as they absorb moisture and shrink as they release it, causing the wood to expand and contract across the grain.

They are everywhere, we take them for granted. I folded thick magazine covers 3 folds and used them as spacers between the slats. ![]() Lay the 1×4 slats on a flat surface, arrange the wood according to the numbers we marked on the back. To create the center panel, first drill all the pocket holes using a Kreg Pocket Hole Jig on the 1×4 braces ans 2×4 top & bottom piece as shown in plan below. You wouldn’t want all the knots to end up on one side! □Īfter getting a layout you like, mark the back of each piece with a number because we will be building our DIY headboard with the front side facing down on the work table. We propped up the 1×4 wood planks and arranged them so that the various wood grains and knots look natural when put together. This is such a fun step to get a glimpse of the finished wood headboard! Look at each post and slat, and choose the best looking side to face front. Sand all the cut surfaces with 120 grit sand paper to remove any splinters, and sand the front and side wood surfaces with 300 to 400 fine grit sand paper to make them super smooth!

Ten years ago Miranda & Austin didn’t get the wedding that they had wanted because, according to them, “we were young and couldn’t afford it.” Now that they both have healthy careers and an established foundation they aren’t holding anything back.

We’ve been married for 10 years and have seen the good, the bad, and the ugly things in both each other and through life’s challenges.“ Their plans for their vow renewal included the same vibe and colors as their original wedding 10 years ago-red, black, and white.

The former president has strong allies in top roles at the Nevada GOP, including McDonald and Republican National Committee member Jim DeGraffenreid. Michigan and California have also passed rules this year that are seen to widely benefit Trump. Nevada isn’t the only state to have adopted rules seen as favoring Trump, whose team has worked for years to shape the system by which state Republican parties award delegates to presidential candidates.

Trump is now facing criminal charges in two jurisdictions over those efforts.Ĭaucuses, which typically reward grassroots support and organizing, are expected to benefit Trump given his solid grip on the GOP’s most loyal voters. Many Trump supporters view the former vice president as disloyal for failing to go along with the former president’s attempts to overturn the 2020 election results.

In addition to forbidding candidates from participating in both the caucuses and primary, the state GOP also restricted super PACs from trying to bolster support for candidates in the caucuses. Last month, the Nevada Republican Party approved rules that rival campaigns say tilt the state’s nominating process in Trump’s favor. But some presidential campaigns and Nevada Republicans have warned that the state’s impact may be muddled after the local Republican Party opted to run its own caucuses two days after a state-run primary on Feb.

What wasn’t on display, however, was something potentially far more lucrative to the company than iterative updates to vacuums and purifiers: how Dyson was planning to manufacture what it promised will be radically new types of batteries. Various staff members demonstrated research products, including autonomous robots with grasping arms that can help pick up household objects, while dishing out miniature models of vacuum cleaners as mementos for the journalists, constructed using the prototyping lab’s bank of industrial 3D printers. Here’s the breakdown.Įager to flex its engineering muscle, Dyson’s jaunt around its Singapore sites brought journalists on a behind-the-scenes look at its St James Power Station, the Singapore Advanced Manufacturing facility (to see the makings of its digital motors), and the Singapore Technology Centre. Hot off the hot mess that was the Zone air-purifying headphones, and some excellent new hair straighteners, Dyson is unveiling its first wet vacuum, a completely redesigned robot cleaner, and an air purifier intended for large open-plan spaces (fortunately, this one you don’t have to plonk on your head). The main reason for all this is hubbub, which Dyson is modestly branding “the future of clean,” is the launch of not one, but three additions to its product lines. The company has flown dozens of journalists from all over the world to attend tours of the HQ’s various facilities. “Our engineers continue to employ technologies to reduce the cognitive burden on our owners, saving time, energy, and effort … a true set-and-forget mindset.” Perhaps this is bad time to mention that according to a recent study in Neurology, completing household chores may actually lower the risk of dementia?Ĭhurchill is holding court at Dyson’s global headquarters, St James Power Station, in Singapore, during a splashy three-day press trip in April. “Our future vision is of a home that can look after itself,” says Dyson’s chief technology officer John Churchill. The storybook art on display here is gorgeous, and fast travel renders it all moot.Dyson is firmly of the view that we need to do less of this cleaning nonsense. Plus it feels like an insult to the wonderful areas Insomniac has created. That’s a stopgap though, and only helps somewhat mitigate the game’s awkward way of shuttling you as far in the opposite direction as possible at each new objective. To skirt this, Insomniac’s created a fast travel solution so you only have to re-run so much of each area. Even at the best of times though Song of the Deep feels stilted-too big, too empty, too contrived. The worst offenders are some sections that delve into the ol’ “Gather These Three MacGuffins” trope, sections that send you to all the cardinal points of the map to find random objects. Song of the Deep ‘s progression is haphazard. You’re given opportunities to take advantage of your new abilities without it feeling forced. The best games of the genre (in my experience) have a way of seamlessly guiding you from area to area, suddenly surprising you with “Oh, I’ve somehow gone full circle and am back where I was three hours ago” moments. Torpedoes you’ll barely need, I might add-combat’s fairly easy, especially if you pursue even a portion of the game’s “secrets” (shown on the map) and keep upgrading Merryn’s abilities.īut mostly the game just doesn’t have a satisfying flow. Merryn’s repertoire of abilities mostly boils down to elemental versions of torpedoes. It runs out of enemies within a few hours, then resorts to recoloring them (for “new” enemies) the rest of the game. Despite all this, Song of the Deep still feels a bit thin. |
