Quick Bed Bolt Question

I have finished painting the bed wood and bought a new set of bed bolts. The bolts came in 2 different thicknesses (these are the strip bolts not the 4-5 in bolts to the frame). I am assuming the thicker ones should be used to bolt to the cross sills, and the thiner ones are for the strips only. Does that sound right?

Re: Quick Bed Bolt Question

yes that sounds right.....The larger ones should fit the counterbored holes in the wood panels......

Ahh ha! Figured it out. The thicker ones are used around the perimiter of the bed.
