Granddaughter wants the bed I am building her to be red. I'd rather stain than paint. Any recommendations on getting to red using an oil-based stain? The material is two-bys in decent construction grade.

Get some transtint RED and goto town.
Either water based, or alcohol based.

Hope you are using maple, as I think it will work and look good on maple.
