Here’s how to make your own pipe bed, DenVogel writes – “This project serves as a guide for those who wish to build their own bed frame from pipe and modular fittings. The beginning sections are informational, regarding different approaches, preparation, and the resources required. The following sections are a reference for the do-it-yourselfer (DIY), and provides step-by-step directions. My main motivation for doing this project was to build a modern queen-size canopy bed frame that was made from aluminum pipe and galvanized metal fittings and would accomodate a standard matress and box springs. Many years ago, I had seen a similar bed frame in magazine ads by a well-known fashion designer. Unfortunately, their version cost nearly $6,000!” – Link.

You can now buy a kit from Simplified Building Concepts for not much more than it costs to buy the materials yourself. It includes pre-cut pipe, fittings, instructions, and even the wrench.
“for not much more than it costs to buy the materials yourself”? – Dude, their price is $1,299.00.
I admit it’s nicer, but IMO not that much.
