Single beds are usually for children, who no longer fit in them, or for bunk-room arrangements where fantasy is not as important as utility concerns. You can build a basic frame, from low to ground wooden double-bed in an afternoon. Add to the day if you decide to paint the painting.

2 Lay the plywood sheet 39 by 75 inches on top of the parallel beams, with the 39-inch edges aligned with the top and bottom edges of the beams. Center the blade so that each 75-inch edge meets 4 1/2 inches beyond the outer edge of the beam on that side.
3 Fix the plywood in place by driving eight wood screws spaced evenly along the center line of each bundle. Insert the screws through the plywood and into the edge of the beam below, using the power drill and a screwdriver tip.
