This took me for-ever to build but mainly because I have an infant plus two other children. I think the actual time in hours was about 15 for the build and about the same for finish work. We modified the plans to fit my sons full size mattress. We also spent a lot on lumber because, initially, I thought I would stain but ended up painting.

This looks good.
Excellent job, even if it did take 4 coats of paint. Nicely done. I really liked the rope wrapped legs.
