It looks like a lot of the weight/pressure is supported by the metal braces, so I was wondering if you've experienced any sturdiness problems... I really like the look of it.

Bought all of the supplies today and buying the wood tonight. ROCK!

I made my own bed this weekend after lusting after a platform bed for years. Your directions were perfect and my bed looks great!
