We had just moved from OH to NC and needed a bed for our daughter. We decided to build rather than buy when we found out the prices. We built it out of pine since we plan to upgrade to something bigger in a few years. The plans were easy to follow and we made a few changes to fit our needs and the trundle we built under it for stuffed animal storage for now. The process was simple since we bought all the material in one place. We glued each piece and used screws to hold it all together. We purchased brackets from online to allow us to remove the rails from the head and foot board for moving. Sanded each piece with 180 than 220 grit sandpaper and wood filled all the cracks for a smooth finish.
