Built this over the course of a week, but could have been done in a weekend if I didn't have three young ones. My husband is military and we move often, so it is built to be broken down into three large pieces. Used these http://www.rockler.com/5-surface-mounted-bed-rail-brackets to attach the rails to the head board and footboard. This bed is a tank and doesn't move at all! We are in love with the way it turned out!
