A twin will only have one set of drawers. Additionally measure how high you want the platform to be. Build the frame of the bed for the drawers. Begin by making a cutting a piece of MDF the length of your bed and height that you want your platform to be. Then cut the board to make the top and bottom frame piece. Screw these onto the center piece. Cut cross sections that will connect to the middle piece of the support mechanism. The drawers will go between each of the sections. You will have two on either side of the the middle piece. Screw into place. You will stagger the boards slightly to connect
