Re: Bed wood?

No prob. The key note is the lenght 97" in some cases can become costly in good-exotic wood. Sounds like you can have any length you want though.

Sillyoldman-
That's good info about the bed wood and dimensions. I always thought that it was black pine, but the info about the factory rubbing the wood with linseed oil and lampblack made perfect sense.
