I got a fair ways into the project, finishing the posts and horizontal pieces for the head and foot boards, but I never went any further because mid-way through the project I bought the condo where Danielle and I now live. Most of my time was directed into fixing the place up, and then after that I found different hobbies; from beer brewing to electronics, traveling to cycling.<\/p>\n<p>Finishing this bed is one of those projects I&#8217;ve kept meaning to do, but at this point Danielle and I are looking to purchase a <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Bed_size\">king size mattress<\/a>, which wouldn&#8217;t fit into this bed, rendering it somewhat useless. This is something I never got around to finishing, and found myself at the point where it was time to abandon it.<\/p>\n<p>Last week I offered the wood to my dad as a project that he could finish up and today he picked it up.\u00a0I&#8217;m really glad to that he wants to work on it, and thus I hope it&#8217;ll serve as an enjoyable project and end up as something my parents can use.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thirteen years ago, back when I moved into my apartment, I started building what was to be a solid oak mission style queen size bed.&#8230;<\/p>\n<div class=\"more-link-wrapper\"><a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/2014\/03\/24\/a-project-unfinished\/\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">A Project Unfinished<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16,22,11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-17826","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-around-the-house","category-family","category-making-things","entry"],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17826","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17826"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17826\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":17827,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17826\/revisions\/17827"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17826"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17826"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17826"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
