Who In California can cut a long bed for me?

I know I can find a bed for 800-1000 but I know others have had theres cut. Is there anybody in California that does this? I'm in the Fresno/Clovis area but willing to travel for a great price and good job.

Ok I'll start looking for 88-98 bed.

There was a guy here in Fresno that was doing it for 1000 bed and frame.

if u can do it yourself its worth imo but if u have to pay someone to do it, its normally going to cost u as much as a reg bed. but you never know, there may be someone on here who would go to to a lower price.

Here is a link to my cut job, still have not gotten around to finnishing. Actually think I would be better if you just find a good used bed. It's alot of work, but kind of a fun experience. I had to do it just to see if I could.
