I guess I’ve officially turned this in to a series: posts about what my woodworking partner John has made in his woodshop!
If you want to see other posts on what he’s made they are all under this link – From the Woodshop (it will include this post; after you click on the link, scroll down to see earlier posts).
We did not have a headboard on our bed, we just had a platform on which our mattress rested. John decided to make a headboard for our bed using a design similar to the one he used for making Lazy Susans (see post From the Woodshop: No “Lazy” in the Making of a Lazy Susan):

Here is the headboard in progress in his woodshop:

And here are some images of the completed headboard:



It’s amazing how he keeps progressing on his woodworking journey, all self taught using YouTube videos!
