Fabricate and Install Railing

keeping the cables out of the way for the railing it's going to be the 1x2 it's going to be stacked maybe three of them vertically on the side grain i think to look great it's like pine stains very well so we won't have any issues there now as far as the ladder the ladder is going to be the side of the bunk bed and i'm just going to have four maybe five railings coming across the only issue that i'm running into is that they don't have two by two select pine so i'm gonna have to make my own two by two and so the only way to really do it is i'm just gonna put a bunch of glue down here stick this together clamp it let it sit overnight and then we'll put some pocket holes and start installing this thing so kind of making things up as we go after the two by two's dried i sanded everything smooth rounded over the edges and drilled two pocket holes at the ends i finished them off by applying one coat of stain wipe the excess off and apply three coats of water-based satin polyurethane using a very inexpensive hvlp sprayer when installing the ladder and the railing i used total tech heavy duty adhesive and pocket screws to secure both the railing and the steps to the post using a small level to ensure that everything is straight and leveled i wiped off any excess adhesive using rubbing alcohol and a simple paper towel before the mattress went on i installed and secured the face frame to the drawer using one inch screws and i spaced it out to be one inch off the ground to act as our drawer pull
