Bam, you never cease to amaze me with your talent! Your bed wood is too pretty to be out in the weather.

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
Well I got some of the wood installed, but I have to stop here until I have some of my buddies come over to help install the bed on the truck. I have access to the bolts that mount it to the frame at this point.

Thanks. I also think it looks nice together. It took awhile to get that stain mixture just right.

The contrast of the wood ton and green looks great...Very soothing combination.
