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.

I bought a cheap articulated bedframe that came with "running lights" underneath, similar to this. At first I was skeptical. In practice, having a nightlight that illuminates just the bed's edge is unobtrusive and (surprisingly) exactly where you want light to avoid bashing toes and shins in the dark. Also, it only amounts to something like eight decent wattage warm LEDs; it's not even a whole strip. It doesn't take much.

yeah I like the look of the full length being lit up. Makes me feel like I'm doing something right with my life
