The Boss wanted something besides a cheap, metal frame that a mattress just sat on...
Un-treated Pine 4 x 4s for the posts
2 x 10s for the rails
Padded headboard panel was 1/2" plywood, covered with 1" foam, covered with gray fabric...
Finish was a Rustoleum Weathered Gray Stain/varnish....

Side rails connect to the head and foot boards via 2 lag screws. Need to be able to take the bed apart for any moves.
Head and foot boards are glued and screwed together. # slats, screwed in place, support a sheet of 3/4" plywood. It needed a filler along one edge...to get the 5' width.
Bed is solid as a rock, does not even slide around on the floor. Post have a bead detail on the "show sides"
