Simple balusters manufacturing technology for stairs in garage conditions
Stair railings, handrails, balusters, sometimes do not have a small cost in the price of the stairs in private homes.
This is the average price for a baluster.
Prices start from 100 rubles. and may be 600 rub. / pcs. (Depending on the type of product, the tree and its varieties). As can be seen, the margin in the manufacture of these products can be up to 1000% or higher.
The information below will be of interest to those who have a place (garage, joinery). A short video shows how not having a lathe to quickly produce balusters:
Key points in the specification and the manufacturing process:
Drive - powerful latching procurement trident (made from a drill and it is welded to the segment of the thick wire). An additional bearing in a sanitary clip on a wooden frame which would relieve the main bearing in the drill structure.
Speed control - a clamp with a manual tightening. As they say, all brilliant - easy!
Clamping element for fixing the workpiece (headstock) - screenshot factory. But it is possible to weld and from scrap tube sections, angle pieces and a pair of nuts with a pin. All is fixed to a frame of plywood.
Tools - Bulgarian with a disk on a tree. Fixed on the wooden base frame with centering the disk axis at the corner of a wooden axis on a platform, which removes from the geometry matrix.
Matrix of plywood, sawn on print pattern.
OPERATION: ground with grinder moves the table, copying, repeating the matrix circuit, and transmits this drive to the workpiece geometry, obtachivaya it.
The picture in the process
Less in the words of the author: between the die pad and get sawdust and shavings and must be continuously removed. It solved a vertical slit in the plywood.
Another is also a simple but ingenious machine - for spiral balusters:
Hand milling cutter is fixed on the carriage, and when moving through the system blocks a cable operated cranks workpiece.
The process can take a look at the video:
The result obtained depends on the type of cutters used. Video about this machine - of several parts.
The sale of such products, balusters with the geometry of the saw. The model in the video looks impressive, unusual and we can say exclusive. The idea is not earnings, for example, a pensioner in the manufacture of balusters under the order. And those who manufactures stairs, as well as designers and developers can always provide orders.
In the description of the video there is a contact of the author, who can help with the drawings of the machine.
