A little while back i got my wood for the truck. Its been at least a year in the making because i cant do woodwork and wasn't going to buy any crazy expensive wood. A buddy of mine gave me a tonnn of next-to-free wood.. enough to do the bed once in cherry and once in walnut. then a wood worker friend who actually makes jewelry boxes in his spare time took the walnut as payment and did the cherry to spec. not all the boards were wide enough, he had to glue them together. Then they weren't all straight, it was just a mess, but it turned out veryyy nice. see it here-
