Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
Thanks. Its red oak. I wanted walnut, and the lumber yard scared me when they gave me the price. Lumber is expensive, I did not save much by doing my own bed wood but I like it.

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
Thanks for the information. I just have the stock pine that came with the truck. Still has to be stained and cleared. I am a long ways away from where you are at. Steve

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.

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
The contrast of the wood ton and green looks great...Very soothing combination.
