    This is an old project of mine. just figured the peeps here might be interested?;)
    Here is the D-ring that I fabricated for my bed. It is Stainless steel so it will not rust! I still need to drill the hole and install it. I have 4 of them. Should be done in a few days.

    I got it off Ebay! Here is a picture of what it looked like before I did the mod.

    I cut off one end and welded a plate to the bottom, and drilled it!
