Nice job on the bed wood. Oh and Coulter cool touch with the early VW deck lid hanging on the wall.

Re: Post your Bed Wood/Metal - Customized/Modified or Stock
My temporary bed. I used regular white wood boards from the local lumber supply yard, three 1x12 and two 1x8. Two of my original bed strips were not reusable, so the five boards worked out well, and only took ripping two of the 1x12's to line up with the original strip mounting holes. Primed everything with Kilz and rattle can flat black. I just needed something inexpensive and functional until I get the funds to one day do it right.

Re: Post your Bed Wood/Metal - Customized/Modified or Stock
I'm thinking about LineX'ing my bed, as I'll use it for renovation stuff. Anyone done this? What would be the best material to use underneath? Sealed exterior-grade plywood?

Re: Post your Bed Wood/Metal - Customized/Modified or Stock
plain old plywood for now. It won't see the outdoors and is only tempory. When I get the bed done I am probably going to use African Mahogony.

Re: Post your Bed Wood/Metal - Customized/Modified or Stock
TREX fascia board, exact thickness of factory boards, cut myself to GMC Paul's dimensions. Wanted something that would be good outside with zero maintenance.

Re: Post your Bed Wood/Metal - Customized/Modified or Stock
this is made from old aluminum slats from a walking floor trailer that has been out of business since the 90's. they are all bolted down from underneath and so is the bed. no exposed bolts at all

Re: Post your Bed Wood/Metal - Customized/Modified or Stock
That's a nice looking flatbed
 I like the aluminum deck. It looks like you have some popup tiedowns? Quote:
