is a steel bed frame still a must if you are just going down the wood and acrylic route? im thinking of just doing a 4x4 for now rather then a 8x4 until more funds come in for a bigger workshop. would be cutting some fine detail in wood so i am thinking steel maybe a must but just for fund issues at the moment i would prefer to do it as cheap as possible like £1500-£2000. What do you think i should get at a minimum guy's?

cheers
