A couple headboard questions?

[justallan1]

Well, I finally got the time to work on the foot board yesterday and am pretty happy that it was a lot easier to do that the first.
I used a plank that is narrower than the headboard and will have another set of planks to make another the same or will grab the wider one for this footboard.
I did get a chance to saw a couple small logs for legs and am figuring making them 2-1/2' for the foot board and 3-1/2' for the headboard, does that sound about right.

I'm slowly getting the parts made for this thing.
Today I got two sets of legs sawn so if I ever decide to make another I'll have all the parts already.
I had to do some trading with a co-worker for some old ugly logs to get what I wanted and he got a couple of my wider slabs and all of the thin pieces shown here. I like how these look and know he'll have enough to keep himself busy for a good while, so everyone is happy.
