A lot! Even heavier once i get the battery and electrics in the front end. Once complete I will weigh the whole lot and let you know.
It is very much a "version 1" build. The timber was all free, and this is my first project, so trying to do it as cheap as I can. I've no doubt that I will build a light weight "version 2" bed frame in the future, but this will suffice for now. When complete, I will clean all the wood up, and cover with cord carpet for a better finish.
