Built entirely from 2x4 - 22 studs altogether - the tricky part was cutting a rebate into the trims so that they look like 1x4 from the front. adjusted plans to suit australian king size mattress & made everything lower & used plenty of kreg screws to put everything together (inspiration from plans in the book). here studs are sold 'rough headed' - so there was an insane amount of sanding - not helped by the fact that I was a novice to the belt sander. Took the best part of 4 weekends to get it all together
