    Thanks Buckgator! I used select pine from Home Depot, I hand picked my pieces to get the best ones. Select pine is a nice wood in comparison to a lot of the other choices. Lol, if I would have known the mill was gonna work as well as it does I would have spent the extra money and bought oak. I routed the edges and put a 1/8" spacing between my slats. I used 1 15/16" steel casters for my bed rollers. Anyway, it works good but as far as building another one goes.. It will be later on, I have a jam up turn table design figured out so that will be the next project on the to do list.

    I have an HF Mill from Spain and it is top notch. Don't know much about the mill maker but his name is on the mill. I bought it from a buddy of mine here in NC local. Whoever got this mill here to the US I am sure paid a fortune but it is here and I now own it for $450

    One thing I forgot to mention in my previous post is where I got my 1 15/16" conveyer wheels. This company has good prices and lots of options.
