The finished bed frame.  

I bought eight, eight foot 2x10s and thirteen 2x4s to build this project.  I have quite a few cutoffs left over that I can use for smaller projects.  

Here are some of the pieces rough cut.  

These are the leg posts after glueing.  

I sanded the headboard and footboard together.  

The joinery is pocket holes and glue.  

Here is a test fit before shaping and sanding.  The bed fit very well!

All finished except for sanding and paint.  

Spacers being glued in.  

I painted the bed frame with primer for now.  We do not know what color we will paint the room, so we can easily change the bed color later.
