Gents,

Does anyone have the dimensions or link to board sizes for the bed? I lost everything with my new phone and my [censored] can't seem to find it!

Here is my follow up posting!

Went to lowes and purchased poplar since they were out of oak. My buddy cut and notched it to specs, applied linseed oil, and here is the $350 outcome!

Wood-$280
Chrome strips- $70 (purchased from Stovebolt member)

I never realized the ways you can contort your body, arms, and fingers to get the bolts in place! I am going to be sore tomorrow!

Very nice. I like how the poplar has the dark and light streaks.

Does anyone know where to find the bed wood dimensions for a '46? Everything I find starts with '47....
