Hi all.
I was asked to build a bed for my coworker and she sent me a picture which uses tongue and groove boards with a V reveal between them. they sell these things are homedepot in 8' sticks (beaded on 1 side and v groove on the other)...she already purchased them and gave them to be to build with.
i'm basically building tongue and groove frame around the panel just like a cabinet door. should i glue the V groove 1x6's together at all or in the grooves on the frame boards. it's a king bed and my worry is that having a ~74" wide panel of tongue and groove boards fully floating individually is alot and will not be exceptionally study. I though about brad nailing the tops of the panel boards into the rail grooves in the center to hold them in place a little better? the v grooves are running vertically so there will be ~15 boards making up 1 panel.
i'm probably over thinking this but i usually use plywood or solid panel...
hope this makes sense as i explained it.
thanks!
Brian
