We have a spare 6"x8" beam left over from framing that has been stored in the basement. We decided to use it to make joists from the bed platform on top of the master bedroom closet.
That beam was about 20 ft. long and VERY heavy. I cut it in to rough lengths using a circular saw. Then used our miter saw to cut the beams to finished length. Then Katie sanded them to clean them up and make them suitable for indoor use.
After insulation and drywall, we'll install the beams permanently, put a plywood deck on them and install railing, ladder, and a matress.

We put them temporarily in place on top of the closet.
