Welcome back,, I now have the bed base and rails done..on this project once again all the wood is 1 inch thick,good stainable wood..on my next step I have to come up with ideas for legs..and then be able to attach the bed base to the framing..I have many ideas swirling around my head we will see what works best..since the mattress I ordered is 10 inch queen size .. the side rails here are 6 inches..This way just tall enough to hole mattress but not to bother you while you are sleeping ..So thanks for following
