I would have to second Terry on this. Two passes (per board edge) on a
table saw with a fence and dado blade will make the cuts much faster and
cleaner than a router.

As an aside, not to take away anything from the resources section of
chevytrucks.org, I have gone through the archives and combined as much
info as I could gather on bedwood. Not only are there dimensions, but
also finishing information. Check it out and let me know what you think
(and please point out any errors which are entirely mine.)
