Today many people face such a problem as a lack of money. Especially this problem becomes actual in the repair and arrangement of a new apartment. Imagine only that you are buying an apartment in a new building, and suddenly the prices for building materials and furniture are increasing. This greatly affects the family budget. Many people face this problem today. Of course, you can save on repairs or furniture. But, at the same time, care must be taken, since the use of poor-quality material may end up as you wished. In many cases, this leads to the need for re-implementation of a particular work using better materials. As a result, expenses are doubled, or even higher.
If the savings on building materials are meaningless, then with furniture this option can be considered. In this case, the best option is to make furniture with your own hands. This allows you to save considerably, because the money will go exclusively to the material, not pay for the production or assembly of furniture. Of course, the manufacture of furniture is a rather complex process, in which it is necessary to take into account some of the nuances.
Bedside cabinets
If you decide to make your own furniture for your new home, it's better to start with something simple. In this case, the optimal start will be the manufacture of bedside tables by their own hands, which has a very simple design that will allow it to be performed even by a non-professional furniture maker.
So, how to make a nightstand with your own hands? The creation of a bedside table by one's own hands, and other furniture, must begin with the definition of its design features. To do this, you need to take a piece of paper and depict on it a future element of the interior. Of course, before that, it's better to see the photo of the bedside tables by yourself. If you have a computer, then you can create a sketch of a bedside table made of wood with the help of programs that professional furniture manufacturers use in their work. Here the main thing is to accurately determine the size of the bedside table by yourself. In order to facilitate the process of manufacturing bedside tables, each of its elements must be separately depicted with exact dimensions. Drawings of the bedside table with their own hands allow you to quickly and easily produce blanks.
As for blanks, they can be ordered in a carpentry workshop, where professionals on machines will quickly solve this issue. In this case, it is worth paying attention to the edge, which is applied to the end of the boards. For such an application, you will have to pay a large amount separately, especially if you take into account the number of blanks. In order to save on this, you can independently conduct this process with the help of a common household appliance - iron. You just need to buy such a tape and under heat treatment fix it on the ends of the workpieces.
You can also make a cabinet with your own hands from materials that simply lie idle and take their place for nothing. So, for example, a curbstone made of particleboard by one's own hands can be the best solution for you.
So, if the bedside table with its own hands is made from improvised wood, then its blanks will need to be processed. First of all, the blanks are cut to the dimensions that were determined during the sketch. To do this, it is better to first make a cardboard table with your own hands, which will allow using it as a stencil. Once they are ready, they must be processed using a grinder. This will give a surface of beauty and smoothness. Also, the details will need to be treated with stain, which will protect them from negative environmental factors and give a beautiful shade.
After that all the details of the product can be assembled into one design. Often, for bonding wooden elements, glue and screws are used. If the manufacture of the bedside table with your own hands is carried out with the help of material from the workshop, you can use hexagon bolts, which are widely used in the manufacture of modern furniture. In order to use this fastening, it is necessary to make holes of the appropriate diameter. At the final stage, the installation of accessories and gluing the edges.
Some tips of professionals
1. In the process of manufacturing blanks, you must accurately withstand the dimensions that were determined during the design of furniture. A deviation of a couple of millimeters can reduce all work to "no."As a result, it will be practically impossible to assemble a nightstand with one's own hands. This is particularly true for the corner table itself.
2. Cutting wood should be done carefully and slowly. This will allow for a qualitative cut. Especially it concerns sawing with the help of electric jig saw.
3. For manufacturing of furniture it is necessary to use qualitative material. If the appearance plays an important role, then it is worth choosing a classic version of the material - chipboard with a laminate coating. Of course, if it is possible to produce furniture from an array, then it is worth using this option. Wooden tables with their own hands have many advantages.
4. To create a beautiful appearance of the bedside table, you should use high-quality accessories. Cheap hardware can completely ruin the appearance of furniture, which completely erases your efforts. As for quality, special attention should be given to the curtains and guides for the boxes. Decoration of the bedside table with your own hands depends on these elements.
5. For boxes it is better to use ball guides that do not make noise during operation. Such designs differ not only in quiet operation, but also in strength. In the side tables on the balcony with their own hands you can use conventional roller, as the noise during their work will be insignificant.
6. In the process of pasting the edge, it is worth using a piece of paper that is placed between the iron and the material. This will allow you to properly glue the edge and avoid it spoilage while working with the iron. If we are talking about the bedside tables in the bathroom with our own hands, then it is necessary to approach the edge of the edge very carefully, since moisture penetration can disrupt the structure of the material.
Bedside table for TV
You can make a bedside table yourself with your own hands. By the same technology, kitchen cabinets are made by hand. The difference is only in the size and number of boxes and compartments. As for the technology, it is everywhere the same, which can not be said about the TV table itself. If you like to watch a lot of movies on your DVD player and you have a lot of CDs in your house, then you just need a TV stand with your own hands. In it you can install not only a video player, but also fold discs and magazines.
A bedside table for TV can be bought ready, or you can make with your own hands. The advantage of the second option is that you can create a nightstand of this design, which you only want. Also it is possible to make a folding table of a curb by the hands under an aquarium. In order to make a TV cabinet with your own hands, you will need:
1. Wood. In this case, the best option is a laminated chipboard.
2. Joiner PVA for better fastening of workpieces.
3. Glass. This is if you want to make glass shelves.
4. Fastening elements, castors.
5. Edging.
So, how to make a cube yourself? For the manufacture of a pedestal with your own hands made of wood, it is best to use a laminated chipboard, the thickness of which should be at least 16 mm. As with a nightstand for the aquarium with their own hands, the manufacture of furniture must begin with the drawing of a sketch. The design of the nightstand should be difficult, as it is often installed in the living room. With the right approach it will be possible to make furniture, from which not only your household members but also guests will be delighted. In this case, it is better to use designs with rounded corners, which will give the product a modernity and elegance. Such a decor of the bedside table will allocate it from the rest of the interior.
The advantage of using a laminated chipboard is that you can save time on making the bedside table for an aquarium with your own hands or under TV, as there is no need for processing and polishing the surface. So, the drawings of the curbstone under TV with their own hands and its individual parts is ready. Now you can proceed to the direct production of blanks. When applying dimensions to the material, it is necessary to adhere to the exact dimensions.
In the process of sawing, the saw blade should not go beyond the mark line. In order to make a smooth cut, it is better to use an electric jig saw. In this case, the movements must be smooth. If the tool is pushed with great force, this can lead to a disruption in the integrity of the top coating of the chipboard.
When the blanks are ready, you can start drilling holes for fasteners and furniture fittings. If the cabinet itself has shelves, it is better to use modern holders of the "tablet".To fasten such elements is quite simple. It is only necessary to make a small diameter hole and insert the holder, made in the form of a capsule with a stop in the middle. Before storing the nightstand, all the holes must be cleaned of chips.
After everything has been prepared, you can start folding the aquarium cabinet yourself. When fixing the elements of the construction it is necessary to use PVA glue. Adding a bit of glue in the holes for the fasteners will improve their fixation and make the connection more durable and reliable. After the structure is ready, the edges of the chipboard must be glued to the edge. The iron is still used here. In this case, it is necessary to remember the use of a sheet of paper, which protects the surface of the edging tape from the hot soleplate of the iron.
The production of the bedside table is completed by the installation of shelves. A good option for the bedside table under the TV will be glass shelves, which will give a graceful design. If desired, the tub for the aquarium with their own hands or under the TV can be installed on the wheels, which will move it around the room, if this becomes necessary.
In order to create a modern bedside table that does not differ in any way from the models in the store, it is necessary to use complex designs. A deaf drawer with several drawers here will not be the best option. To improve the appearance of the product it is worthwhile to use small structures over the lid of the bedside table. So, you can make one niche under the TV, in which you can install a video player.
The main thing to remember is that having such a complex design will make the product a real work of art, from which all your guests will be delighted. Special attention should be paid to the use of modern materials. Glass and metal will give the product a style and beauty. Correctly prepared drawings of thumbs for the aquarium with their own hands or under TV will create furniture of any configuration.
You can also make furniture in any room with your own hands. A curbstone for shoes with their own hands, a curbstone under the sink with their own hands, a bathroom cabinet with their own hands and much more will save a lot on the arrangement of a new apartment. If you do not know how to make a bedside table under the sink or in the hallway, then you can watch video on the Internet. Thus, you can learn the basics of creating a particular furniture.
