Has anyone made some kind of bracket to mount a waterbed headboard to a regular bed frame? We are getting rid of the waterbed to go to a regular mattress, but like the headboard and would like to keep using it. But I need to find or make a bracket to mount the headboard to the standard frame. Any ideas or suggestions would be great.

There are lots of different "L" brackets in the hardware store.. And attaching the headboard to the wall behind the headboard would be a good way to do it. But remember most waterbeds are Taller than most regular bed frames, so they will not match-up. But the best way to reuse a waterbed headboard is to put your matress into the actual frame for the waterbed. You can, but you dont have to use a box spring for this application. You can just place the matress itsself into the whole reserved for the waterbed matress.

Your mattress frame shouldn't be going to be powerful sufficient. Water weighs about 8.33 lbs per gallon. A traditional water bed could weigh as a lot as 1200 lbs. You would have got to build a body to support the water mattress underneath your current bed frame.
