I spent about $1300 in walnut (103 BF 8/4", 24 BF 4/4") and $60 on the poplar (31 BF 4/4"). I way overbought on the walnut and probably still have 30-40 board feet left over (only 8/4") since I bought extra to pick out the best sections of each board.


The bolts aren't visible from the outside. Here's another picture of a test joint I did so you can see how the bolts work better https://imgur.com/a/O2lhpwe which I got from Rockler https://www.rockler.com/bed-rail-connection-system.


I've slept on the bed for about 3 months before I put the finish on it (Arm-R-Seal https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IKNIDE4/) so I'm not concerned about the dowels breaking. Plus if they do break it's easy enough to take apart and put new dowels in or if I wanted to look into a metal rod instead of dowels.


Yes it's a Leesa mattress and I've been happy with it for the 2 years I've had it.

Seven coats of Semi-Gloss Arm-R-Seal.

I could never seem to get a great finish with minwax polly, but then I switched to the Arm-R-Seal polly and it was night and day. very smooth and just all around a higher quality finish

I did. I found that sealing it with three coats of Shellac and finishing it with something like General Finishes Arm-R-Seal Semi-Gloss seemed to work very well
