Bed base made of birch plywood, by Wieke

Wieke had a large sheet of birch plywood cut to size and made a bed base from it. Convenient, because birch plywood is extremely strong!

Wieke's Bed Base

Wieke made a bed base using Birch Plywood. Smart, because birch plywood is extremely strong! This allows the base to be made from a single sheet. For finishing, she had the edges of the sheet rounded. This eliminates sharp edges and gives the sheet a nicely finished look. At TOSIZE.it, you can not only round edges but also apply various other finishes to the material.

Working with Plywood

Plywood is not only extremely strong but also very flat. Because multiple thin layers of wood veneer are used, it is much flatter than solid wood. The layers of Birch Plywood are among the thinnest used for plywood. This makes the sheet very flat and gives it enormous bending strength. Additionally, plywood has a natural look due to the visible wood grain. However, this also means that it is important to treat the material properly to keep the sheet beautiful and strong for as long as possible. For indoor use, a coat of varnish is sufficient, while for outdoor use, it is recommended to use Waterproof Okoumé Plywood.
