I have nothing to do tonight so i am planning on making my bed.
Although the instructions i cant seem to work out 
I dont see why they just cant explain what to do in words rather than confusing pictures

good beds a word of advice screw the slats down as they move under "certain movements" and youll fall on the floor.

Whatever you do, you'll end up with loads of spare nuts and bolts, which are probably important

Mine doesn't squeak yet but c8rsa! is right, you can fall on the floor under certain movements 
Building the bed is so simple tho, you don't really need instuctions to screw 4 bits of wood together and drop slats in!!

on ours the slats keep coming off, the middle beam came away from the headboard and dumped us on the floor right in the middle of sex, ruined the moment. Now we have had to rebuild it to move it to a lower level due to a big hole in the bed where the beam should have stayed...
