An important part of a healthy and comfortable rest is comfortable furniture. Furniture does not have to be purchased at a sufficient level of skill and ability, you can make some items of furniture yourself.
For example, excellent product is a rocking chair. It not only allows you to relax and unwind after a hard day's work, but also a little meditation, reminisce, thinking. Make the design is not too difficult if you first draw a detailed drawing and prepare high-quality materials.
What material to choose
When it comes to the production of rocking chairs, many generally choose FC or plywood WBP. Their main difference - adhesive with which fasten the layers of veneer:
- In PSF as coupler is used phenol-formaldehyde resin, which under certain ambient conditions capable emit toxic compounds. So it is better to avoid this material during assembly of these pieces of furniture, like a rocking chair;
- FK plywoodOf course, the more preferable in such a case. It is environmentally friendly, so you can have peace of mind for yourself and your family.
dimensions
For the manufacture of structural parts (e.g., side plates, bearings, etc.) Are best used plywood sheets 15 mm in thickness and more (it depends on the product load). Everything else quite will transfer more lamellae (10 mm).
wood veneer
Here the choice is also not very large. If rocking chair will always be in the room, you can use birch wood or plywood sheets. All other cases require the use of softwood (such as pine less often subject to decay).
process of manufacturing
Step 1. You will need a detailed drawing. If you are not a civil engineer, who on this dog ate it, it is best to use the ready drawings from the Internet. The less will be the construction of the connecting points (lines), the better for you.
Step 2. Move on graph paper drawing of the product. Follow all proportions. If a complex structure, it is necessary for every detail to make separate curve.
Step 3. Make veneer sheet cutting work. Maximum tightly Lay all the drawing pieces to cutting as little as possible waste and excess material. For cutting, use an electric jig saw, he will most accurately cut parts.
Step 4. Now remove all the roughness, unevenness of the cut sides. It should be done carefully, because the negligent approach, you run the risk of constantly put yourself splinters when using the chair. Thereafter, the workpiece is processed by special means to prevent the appearance of mildew and rot.
Step 5. Go to the assembly of parts. Of course, each assembly process will be different depending on what kind of drawing you used. For fixing using not only adhesive, but small screws. Each fixture must be in the plywood sheet vertically, so as not to damage the product. Drill primary channel by a thin drill.
The secondary channel will need to do a drill has a diameter which is slightly less than that of the screw shaft. Do not hurry, it will help to avoid mistakes.
"Caps" screws must be drowned in the veneer during installation (so that it is necessary to pick another drill, the diameter of which is approximately equal to the top of the mounting element).
Step 6. Further, there is only the plug fasteners (pixels) and finishing the article. Here, everything is individual, it is possible to use lacquer, foam, fabric, trim, etc. It can be somewhat improved primary structure, if you are confident in their abilities.
Nothing more difficult in the manufacture of self-rocking chair there, you can connect your imagination and modify the appearance of the product.
