    Built mine with 4" cedar posts, and 2x6's across the back. Left the screws visible, because the stain I chose would've shown where wood filler was used, plus, never really was concerned with how the screws looked. Just sunk them in so they're not as visible.

        A Kreg jig will change your life.

        Go get one.

          I finished the loft, deck and stairs. Guess I could post up a pic this evening. I haven't got around to building the desk. If you were referring to me.

            It's one of my favorite items in the shop, but I feel like I'm cheating. lol

                I've built a few. Use pocket holes and then these brackets for the bed frame. https://www.amazon.com/No-Mortise-Be...nector+bracket

                  Kreg Jig like others have said. You will be happy with its uses.

                    Still need to touch up a few plugs and throw the mattress up there.
