It is time i finally get a bed frame, my wife and i both like this one. It looks like something i can build myself.

I would love to try building this with as few nails/screws as possible. It is for a King Sized bed.

Three identical cabinets, the length of which added to the depth is equal to the length of the mattress.

If you don't want to carve out a rabbet, make the back of each 3/4" short, so you have a space to drop the stretcher boards.

If you don't want to use screws, dovetail the carcasses and dado the dividers.
