. There is a child's platform bed, but you could always size it for King size. If you are going to paint it, get poplar, soft maple or alder. If you are going to stain it, get whatever looks good to you and you can afford.

Go to your library and pick up "Beds" by Jeff Miller. It has a queen size platform bed in it with the math you need to make it into a king. If the library doesn't have it, it is a Tauton press book so you can probably order it from their website.
