Hello /diy/. I'll be moving out soon and I want to get rid of my old broken bed. I'm planning to build a plataform bed. The thing is I don't want to use nails or glue. I have at my disposal files, handsaw, hacksaw etc. I plan on using 4 boards and using the wood square grid thing that holds the matress from my old bed. I want to know what kind of cut should I do on the edges of the board to fit them like the pic so they don't slide or move.

It's my first "large" carpentry project. All I did was small sculptures. I was thinking of shit like the japanese joints. But I don't know any of them so maybe someone here can give me pointers.
>>
sounds somewhat unreasonable to expect an autism-filled image board to teach someone how to become a master japanese joinery expert, since such instruction requires an actual expert, and 1000's of hours of hands-on training.

Nvm, found what I was looking for.

Came to post this specifically, glad OP is an able person. When you get it done, post pics.
>>
>>1216326
God speed op. The easiest way is a Craig jig imo, but joints look better.
>>
they make steel hangers specifically for these bed joints. you'd be a fool to use anything otherwise, especially if you're not a virgin

I think I won't be able to post pics. I still need to get power on, internet access and a bunch of other shit in the new place. But I'll try!
>>1216412
wood joints folded a thousand times can hold me and ur mum :^)
>>
No nails/screws is easy. No glue is going to be a son of a bitch. Why u no glue tho?
>>
>>1216326

mortise & tenon would be way easier. Make the mortise all the way through and make the tenons long so they extend out the other side. Drill hole through protruding tenons and drive a wedge in the hole to secure in place. That's probably the easiest way to do this without glue or fasteners.

because I'm graduating in electric engineering and I have right to be autistic with stuff. Also i like joints.
And my dad studies old houses and the colonial houses from the 1880s here used no nails or glue and I got interested.
And It'll be easier to disassemble.

Is it ok to do it with only hand tools? Chisel, plane and saw in my case

>Is it ok to do it with only hand tools? Chisel, plane and saw in my case

Yes. Go to Paul Sellers channel on youtube to learn how to do mortise & tenon with a hand saw and chisel.
>>
>>1216443
Ok, thanks anon! Also my whole carpentry knowledge is based on this jap crew channel. I don't understand a word of japanese and I'm not a weeb but I love it.

here pic related was my suggestion.

Not OP but how would I'd go to making a glue-less, screw-less, nail-less table ? I've already done a couple with old doors, 2x4s and plywood. I can make a frame only with joints but how would I go to attach a tabletop to the frame ?
>>
>>1216472
You don't. This is one thing you always want to use screws for. Sure you can tenon the top to the base, but it will just crack and come lose as the humidity changes from summer to winter.

Look up Japanese Joinery.
They've been doing it for thousands of years (and are still doing it, though mostly as masturbation) because they never managed to develop glue. Expect your table to come out a lot THICCer than a table made with nails and screws.
