I am making a fence out of metal headboard/footboards. My younger brother brought me this today, said he found it in a ritzy subdivision on garbage day, gotta love little brothers:

Love, love, love it! My brother has been known to scrounge around on garbage day, but doubt he has ever seen anything like that. It looks brand new! Can't wait to see your finished bed!

Thanks all, if we ever dry out in Louisiana I'm gonna have my soil hauled in and start putting it all together. Rain, Rain, go away.
