Re: Before and After pics
That bed wood is nothing short of amazing. Did you hit it with some 80 grit or a hammer or something, so that when someone who doesn't care how it looks damages it, and it doesn't bring a tear to your eye? I don't fix anything around my home or vehicles to look really nice, because somebody is just going to mark it/break it/scratch it for you. I bought a new car in '16, and it had $1100 worth of body damage on it (by parties unknown) before it even got it's first oil change. I keep thinking about selling it and buying an old pickup with a crap paint job and chunks of rail road track for bumpers. Run into this, *****!

I hear ya, just can't have nice things anymore, not out in public anyways I actually chose pine because it was original style and chose the finish coatings for durability.. well, short of trying to be sloppy, it just turned out like that as a by-product of putting it together properly the finish coats were also applied for durability and as a result, look pretty decent it is going to be tough to initiate the bed again, but I suspect it wasn't much different when they were newly painted from factory we'll see how it looks when I go back to the farm next visit..

Re: Before and After pics
Good stuff guys. Encourages me on my new project although I don't think my budget is going to be a fraction of some of the ones I've seen here.
