I've found that they are either 77 1/8" long or 76 3/4" long. Which is correct?
Are they supposed to be 5/8" thick or 3/4" thick?
How wide is each board?
How deep and wide is the groove along the edge for the bed strips?
I've purchased a Mar-K box kit but did not think it was worth it for the wood as we have plenty of it up here in Canada. I figure I'd make my own but I do not know the exact measurements. Any assistance is always appreciated! | | |
