Finally Bought A Safe

My bed room is to small to getgood pics if the rest of the bed. There are two large drawers on each side that can have pistol racks in them, or can be made as one bid drawer for long guns. It can be made that all three sections on the end are gun drawers. The head board can also have easy access compartments.

The furniture market is not very good right now as the cheap made in China crap is taking over. I would love to get my beds on the market.

Where in China do they make something like this? With the gun market still going strong and with all the new firearms that have been bought, you may have a niche for what you do.

Set-up a website, figure out how to make your frames modular (which they sound like they already are), get a freight company, and it might grow into a viable long-term business. Don't know if I would include all the camo curtains and toilet seat in your pictures. For some, wifes will have to agree and say yes to the purchase. So a few pictures with female decor would be in order.

Wiersay, to say I'm impressed mate is an understatement. I really liked you application of Realtree in the bathroom...and as for that thunder-box (crapatorium)...awesome. As for the "shinys' "...your dogs have a lovely sheen to their coat, so that will suffice mate.

I'm definitely with Slim on this one mate...your work looks very good, and he is totally correct about that niche market. Even if the price is a bit "up there", those that want what you have to offer are happy to pay a bit more for the product. As Slim says...nothing like this coming out of China.

Cheers, Vince

Thanks Vince, I have toyed with the idea of marketing for a couple of years now. As you know a good woman is behind me in all of this. My wife made the bedroom curtains. We looked all over for a shower curtain but could not find anything in the style she wanted. After a little trial and error she came up with the design I posted. I'm gonna have to do a little more research and see if I cant get some thing going. I know I have a good thing here.

man I am gobsmacked. that furniture sure is great. here in NZ we have to have our guns in 1 place locked up. the ammo in another locked up. and the powers that be prefer the bolts in a third.... oh yeah and we are NOT allowed to use weapons in self defence. I got to show my wife the bathroom pics that is classic and I agree with Vince those dogs sure look fine.

Thanks guys! My wife and I got tired of the main stream formal decor and decided to decorate the way we live. Trying to find other suppliers to see if I can bring the cost of material down so I can have some room for the cost of labor. I am making plans for another prototype to put in my extra bedroom. I am going to try to incorporate all the best features into one bed. It should be an interesting design. The most fun and challenging part is making things appear to be something other then they are.

Can you show some pics of the head board compartments?

I wish I could but that is one feature I didn't put in this bed.
