It is time i finally get a bed frame, my wife and i both like this one. It looks like something i can build myself.

I would love to try building this with as few nails/screws as possible. It is for a King Sized bed.

How you gonna stop the mattress from sliding off of there when you get to fucking?

That shouldn't be a problem since he doesn't want to screw or nail...😜

I guess that means our ace won't want to nut either.

If you're desperate enough to go to Ace hardware there are other issues...

Serious answer to an unserious question, but you could drop the bed slats by 10-15mm to “tuck” the mattress into the frame and stop it from sliding around during rigorous nighttime activities.

IMO, this would look better too. Maybe as much as 50mm, but no further. Otherwise it might be tough to get the fitted sheet on/off.
