However, modern summer tables are made of plastic and can not boast of particular durability. Therefore, in this article we will tell you how to make a table for a dacha with your own hands.
To start, you need to select a material. It should be durable, light and comfortable to work with. A table made of wood will be the best option.
Based on the number of people who are going to sit behind it, you need to decide on the size. It is necessary to make a drawing and a diagram of the dacha table, and start working on them.
Tools and materials
- wooden slats;
- wood hacksaw;
- measuring tape;
- self-tapping screws;
- drill;
- glue for wood;
- 8 metal corners.
Dimensions of wooden rails are different, you can use 50h50h1200 mm. The larger the size, the corresponding, respectively, will be stronger, but, and heavier the design. Based on the selected size of the slats, choose the appropriate length of the self-tapping screw. When everything is ready, you can start making a wooden table for the dacha with your own hands.
Preparation of
rails Knowing the dimensions of the table 120x120 cm, we saw the necessary number of racks of the same length. Then, these racks need to be laid out on a flat surface and measure the resulting length and width. According to these dimensions, from four racks, the skeleton is lost, into which prepared, identical rejki will be laid out.
Next, it is the turn of the legs. They, too, should be the same length. It will depend on the height of the table, which can be made at the level of 75-80 cm. Since, all the load will be on the legs, one rack per each leg will not be enough.
Therefore, we will fasten 4 racks together. To do this, first, glue them together with a special glue on wood, and then fix them with screws.
This concludes the preparatory work. Our photos and video of assembly of a table for a summer residence with the hands will help to understand in detail each stage of construction.
To increase the service life of the wooden table, before assembly, the slats and the legs must be treated with a biosecurity agent.
Assembling the table
The made frame is placed on a flat surface. Then, we begin to install the rack in the frame.
At the same time, each is glued and fastened together with screws in several places, and with a frame on both sides. Thus, we will get a table top without legs.
The legs are first connected to the plane of the table with screws. Then reinforce the corners of the metal, two for each.
Now, the wooden table is ready. It is not recommended to use it immediately. It takes time to dry up the glue. Then, it can be varnished or painted, and it will please you with beauty and reliability for a long time.
