Price of lumber

comparison of different wood dimensions available at Lowes and the price. Beds will be 4 feet by 8 feet and 12 inches deep. I have a nifty coupon for 10% off my total purchase at lowes as well.

I am thinking of building the beds similar to this:

Try the doug fir and protect it. It should last for a few more years in your dry climate. Good luck with it!
