I am well aware of this, however for the intents and purposes of this discussion where we are talking about a 17 year old building a practical short bed for a reasonable amount of money with a minimal amount of custom fabrication work, were talking about a little bit of a chore here.

And technically that will not be a short bed, it will be a super short bed, and personally I don't like em. And I know that some ones brothers cousins best friends former roommate has always done it bigger and badder, but man I am trying to be practical here.
