Wooden furniture and utensils with their hands
Self-production of pieces of furniture in demand for many reasons: the economic component here, when you purchase the furniture can not afford, and aesthetic - Samodelov always is exclusive, and the opportunity to show imagination and skills. In the future, every thing is done to remind you that not gods pots, and we ourselves were not born yesterday. One of the craftsmen, which on our portal a great many, starting with the widespread alteration of building pallets, came to the creation of wooden utensils in a deliberately rough, but no less attractive style. The results of his endeavors, he enjoys sharing with all who are close to this theme.
Shrek Style
Khasky Do Samodelov of pallets prompted, primarily straitened circumstances - after the completion of capital construction funds to purchase even the most essential is left, but the pallets just was excess.
Khasky (User FORUMHOUSE):
It's about furniture from pallets, want to share their own experience of manufacturing. He built a log house, stage of capital construction ended in September. And there was an urgent need to equip minimal interior before the rain and cold. In view of the minimal budget has decided to put to use pallets - the good, they have enough.
So as a writer living at a distance from population centers, and reminds himself known brutal character from the same cartoon, and the furniture began to do the appropriate - solid and functional, and aesthetic will follow. "The first sign" of his personal collection in the style of Shrek has become a massive rack from the pallet.
Starting operation began processing pallet chainsaw - curly crop, to give an interesting shape.
Following in the course went brush kratsovka (hard), smooth out the terrain and show the beautiful wood structure.
After the preform was impregnated with stain, after drying, it has turned out quite decorative. But this was not enough, and "aging" has been used already soft kratsovka.
In the same way it was made shelf and decorative sidewall after assembly - varnishing, mounting and installation of hooks to its rightful place. time and minimum investments, a little imagination and work, and the result is not just a functional piece of furniture and interior decoration presently.
The problem outerwear placement was successfully solved, but after there was another - the kitchen table, as in the absence thereof, the food is cooked on improvised surfaces, which greatly annoyed, and it was just uncomfortable.
The priorities are the same: the practicality and durability, with minimal investment.
At this time, in the course went to the remnants of lumber on the ground floor and rack - roof boards, dubious merit of which was "Helicopter", on the countertop - 46x146 mm decking.
What is still used board with a tongue - in an article about lodges.
Rack cut to size and processed stain for countertops gelled wood panels. tongue and groove system enhanced adhesive bonding, and from the pallet and collected simplest Clamp bars (press), and in which "condition reaches the" blank for countertops.
After one day ingot has been ground, the corners and edges are rounded and processed as impregnation - mordant. Further Khasky I cut a hole under the sink electric jigsaw.
To subsequently not bother to sweeping out from under all the garbage table, master table has collected on the bottom boards which were also processed and impregnated stain. Partitions and shelves had to buy more furniture panels, end panels - from the same tray. Assembled lacquered table, is brought from the sink - the convenience is obvious.
The next exhibit, facilitate and beautify life Khasky, became a table / stand for the audio and video equipment. Shrekovskaya tonality is preserved, materials and technology - conventional: the sidewalls of the pallet, top in the tongue, a shelf of a furniture board. Pallets handled kratsovkoy, all the details were covered with stain after assembly - finishing varnish.
On refinement and improved decorative article is not meant, but the owner is completely satisfied and, together with the rest of the surroundings and by the house, it looks natural.
And most importantly - fully performs its function at modest cost of raw materials, as well topikstarter work is clearly a joy.
The speed of the stand there was an original bedside table, is both a mini-table, and a minibar. "Body" of the baby was the beam from which the core is removed, inserted shelf, worktop - leftovers from the kitchen. Standard processing kratsovkoy, stain and impregnation coating lacquer. Now Khasky watching television, sipping brandy - in the locker just put the glass and bottle on the table and - an alarm clock, and eventually other necessary stuff. Saturated color stain some visitors seemed too dark theme, but was deliberately chosen to set off the walls of the house.
Khasky:
I experimented with different stains - "Nut" when applied to a birch tree with green molds. But fumed oak looks more or less noble. As for the dark / light, I personally wanted something of a contrast with the light walls.
The next stage of Shrek, as he calls himself Khasky, He engaged in the manufacture of wooden household utensils, and although neither the skills nor the theoretical knowledge on the subject is not there, it does not become an obstacle for the craftsman. Winter evenings studied related sites, forums, instructional videos.
Although some use in the collected base, according to Shrek, eat until you want to do a practical embodiment, it is useless. It is necessary "to make the hand" to experience the process and to understand all the subtleties and nuances.
The raw material for the steel embodiment fantasies felled trees from oak groves in the neighborhood, the thickness of the branches allowed survey inquiring party portal.
The first thing a log suitable soaked in flowing creek in a ravine - two to three weeks, depending on the thickness, then - drying. Since oak and on its own strong, and we soaked it becomes even stronger treatment with hand tools such as chisels and chisels - not an option. Rough ingot sawed already proven pallet chainsaw, then - a drill, to select the array, and sanding - for shaping.
The first pancake, which is not a success, became cup - Kuksa Cup.
Various nozzles to power tools make it possible to perform the processing as accurate as possible. Naturally, proprietary technology created by experimentation, pile of wasted time and damaged discs. But as a result there was a technique that allows you to receive and decorative and functional products.
Khasky:
Finish lapping is performed drill, set in different packing, and for every small step is important to choose the optimum. I had to experiment, in the process discovered a chic way to grinding concave surfaces, and things went much more fun. What's interesting - the final shape of the product emerges in the process. One plan, and in the course once he is cut more attractive option. Probably, this is the moment of creation. By the way, the second hole is not even planned in the cup, and then, after the finish grinding, still do - and voila ', a cup formed the arm as a native.
Over a cup of woks followed - at least for the bath, even for the home.
The set went to scoop bowls.
After shaping and polishing of wood utensils digested within two to three hours in the saline solution - 25%, after boiling it should dry a couple of weeks. Dried products in a number of approaches are impregnated with linseed oil, they must be manually rubbing the composition, five or six times, allowing each layer to dry.
Finish lapping is typical polishing, but even here there are some nuances - do best ointment of his hands, neither felt, nor the paper did not give the desired result and does not compare with his hands. According Khasky opinion, this is due to the energy that is transferred from the hands of the master tree.
All manufactured objects were used in everyday life.
Khasky:
In Shrek is now good-quality, durable utensils, not split, crack, does not rot, and in the kitchen, bath and handy. Well, yeah, crooked, so after the first training work. As the developments of skills, I hope, will be obtained and tidy, and simmetrichnenko.
As the operating time set utensil considerably extended, receiving replenishment as circles, woks and bowls. Fearing cracking boil bowl Shrek did not, by performing the impregnation and polishing. Everyone who decides to follow his example, he advises to pay more attention to a pig - any, even microscopic cracks at the edges of the bursting threaten to turn after the cooking product. It would be a shame that so much time and effort spent in vain, it is easier not to take risks and to select the whole piece.
Khasky and plans to continue to equip their life with their own hands, charm Made with love furniture and utensils not replace standard headsets and kits.
