This project was very easy to follow. I modified the measuremnts to build a queen bed frame instead. I got a little bit confused at some point and ended up with the sides overlapping the head and foot, but it's still looked pretty good, I wish I had payed attention to this detail though.
The wood I used was poplar, finished twice with wipe-on poly, one coat of minwax cherry stain and protective wax for the final finish (sanding with 220 grit paper between coats).
Built From These Plans
Estimated Cost

Length of Time

Modifications
If you want to build a queen bed instead just cut the head and foot at 61 1/2″ and the sides at 80″
Lumber Used
Poplar for the outside and pine for the slats and slat support.
