Now is a great time to get those legs cut, don’t you think? Cut (6) 4″ legs from your 4×4 stock.Īttach the two center support legs 16-1/4″ off of the frame to the center-line of the legs. (2) screws on top, flip it over and (1) screw underneath in the center. Measure the halfway point between the two side frames and attach your center 2×4″ support. Glue the inside end of the 2×4 (that will be pressed up against the frame)…Ĭlamp the 2×4 to the frame and get to screwing! Perhaps even a dog.įlip your frame over and set your 2×4 in line with your 1-1/4″ mark. It doesn’t really matter, we just want enough screws to support the weight of the slats and mattress…and you…and a friend. You may have +/- 7″ between the last hole and the far end. Once your Kreg Jig is set, drill holes 2″ from each end of the 2×4. Mark out 1-1/4″ down so that we can use that as a guide in the next few steps. These supports are set down 1-1/4″ from the top of the frame. Glue and screw your frame together using 2-1/2″ pocket screws.Īfter joining the frame we’re going to attach the 2×4 supports. The proper setting for 2×6’s and 2×4’s is 1-1/2″. Familiarize yourself with the Kreg quick start guide because we’ll be using it all day.

Our painter came back to do some minor touch ups, and I showed him what I used. I ordered two more packages because I didn't want to run out. To our delight the pens worked incredibly well. My partner found these and showed them to me. The painter tried using pens from a well known paint company, but they didn't work either. The floors themselves took nine coats of stain because they were so old. Our floor guy tried staining them, but it wouldn't take. They were pretty banged up over years of use, and, after the floors were redone, all the nicks and scratches just stood out that much more. We had the floors refinished to their original beauty, but the baseboards and stair risers were a challenge. Promising Review: " My partner and I recently bought a 140-year-old home with original wood floors and wood work throughout. Get a pack of four from Amazon for $13.87 (available in seven colors).

I would have missed out on the best cheapest organizers I have ever found. I am so glad I took the chance and did not listen to the reviews. I wear a 32DD and the bras fit beautifully in the organizers. I figured, worst case scenario I would have to cut the dividers out of the bra organizers. At just $15 for four organizers I took my chances and ordered two sets of four. Promising review: "I LOVE LOVE LOVE these organizers!! I almost did not purchase them due to the reviews saying that larger than a C-cup would not fit into the bra organizer.
