Default Should I Finish Bed Slats?

When building the bed rail piece to hold the slats, notch it 1/4" deep or so to
hold the slats.


Wouldn't tacking on small stop pieces be safer than notching
structural members, Charlie? Or how about a nylon strap from
head to toe with crown staples in each slat?
