Furniture for dacha by own hands

How nice after work to relax at the cottage in a circle of friends and family. But for this it is necessary to equip a comfortable and cozy place. And all the necessary furniture for the dacha is not necessary to buy, you can do it yourself. I offer to your attention several master classes on the manufacture of such dacha furniture, as a table with benches and a hammock.

Manufacturing of a summer table and benches

  1. The table and benches are made on one base. This allows you to install it in any convenient location in the suburban area. Dimensions of this dacha furniture, which you can make by yourself, you will see in the drawings.
  2. The crossings of the legs to the table top are fixed by sampling the half of the board and screwed with screws. To make a selection of the board, you need to cut the notch to the half of the board with a hacksaw, and then select the cut to the middle with the chisel. Before assembling the product, it is necessary to thoroughly sand all the wooden parts to avoid splinters.
  3. All elements of the table are fastened to 24 metal rods with nuts and washers.
  4. To the table and benches are not rot, they are treated with an antiseptic. In order for the wood to be visible on the furniture, a table with benches must be covered with stain, and on top - with varnish. Another option - paint all the paint and cover it with varnish.

Hammock to give your own hands

Hammock for summer rest can easily be made from unnecessary wooden pallets. To do this you will need:

  1. First, carefully sort the pallet into its parts using a chisel.
  2. We cut with a saw 15-20 boards of the same size, equal to the width of your future hammock. Then, on a single board, which will be our stencil, a marker, we will place the holes for the rope, which connects all the boards. In order for the hammock to withstand the weight of not only the child, but also the adult, and at the same time the edges of the boards do not split off, you should, by making holes, retreat from the edge of each board by about 2-3 cm. Using a drill you need to make holes in all the boards. Fine grind all the details of the hammock.
  3. The next stage of the work is the joining of planks with each other. A strong rope you need to bind the boards like you are lacing shoes. Knot the knot very tightly, and the edges must be scorched with a match or a lighter so that they do not swell.
  4. At the corners of the hammock on the extreme boards we drill two holes side by side. We pass the ropes, on which the hammock will hang, into the holes.
  5. If the ropes on one side of the hammock are made longer, you will get a hammock chair, and if the ropes are made of the same length - there will be a chair-bed. Ready hammock can be covered with stain and varnish.
