Once you have fabricated the pieces, the OP Bunkbed is ready to
be assembled. It is a good idea to leave all the hardware slightly
loose while assembling. After everything is assembled, you should
go back and make sure that everything is tight.
Click on the pictures below to see larger
versions.
| The first step in assembly is to assemble
the headboard. Lay out the two tall legs and attach the short
horizontal braces. Next attach two short mattress supports,
and finally the short X-brace pieces. You may choose to attach
the shelves while you have it on the floor. After everything
is together, stand the assembly against the wall, but make sure
that it won't fall |

Next, you will assemble the footboard. Lay out the two short
legs and attach the steps and the other two short mattress supports.

Partially lift the short leg assembly and fasten one long
mattress support. Having another person is really helpful with
this.
|
 |
| Lift the free end of the long mattress support and fasten
it to headboard. |
 |
| The headboard/shelf can be installed in the lower section
or at the top of the bed. Or you could make two headboard/shelves
and have them at both locations. |
 |
| Install the bottom back long mattress support, the long X-brace
pieces, the bottom front long mattress support, and a bottom
center mattress support (in that order). |
 |
| After attaching the top long mattress support and top center
mattress support, you are now ready to drop in the plywood.
Before doing so, make sure that you didn't leave anything under
the bed such as tools, or the family pet. |

Bunkbed!
