As others have stated those among us who are less talented at woodworking can purchase from Bruce Horkey, link here: https://horkeyswoodandparts.com/page29.php#woodcross. Given your woodworking capability you won't need to do that, but the picture might help.

I have saved a few pictures of original 3/4 / tonner and F-2 / F-3 beds with good condition original appearing bed wood, notice the welting along the edge of the bed wood between the outer board and the bed side.
