So our 3-year-old boy, Brayden, finally made the switch to a big boy bed full-time! Of course we needed bed rails to keep our rambunctious little one from rolling out of bed at night so of course, like usual, we made them ourselves. Custom fitted to his bed, these bed rails are not only sturdy as heck but they are a nice wooden alternative to the cheap plastic looking rails that are all over the place. The best part about is that we made these for about $15 a piece! For the full plans with cut list and printable PDF visit: http://rogueengineer.com/diy-toddler-bed-rail-plans/

After cutting the boards according to the cut list (found on RogueEngineer.com) assemble the rail with 1-1/4" pocket screws.
Now assemble the support with 1-1/4" pocket screws.
With the support between the mattress and box spring, stand the rail up next to it and mark where the support should connect to the rail.
Connect the support to the rail at the appropriate height, sand and finish as desired.
