36 pickup stake pocket wood rails ??

[Scott H in Wheaton]

The sides will be attached with old fashioned square head bolts mortised into the board.
I don't have the bolts yet but I'm looking for either 1/4-20 x 2" or 5/16-18 x 2"
This is a practice piece.
I have a corner mortising chisel on order to give me nice crisp lines.
I'm using Forstner bits in a drill press to sink the holes.
