Bath in a private home is a great way to keep the body toned and having fun with friends. One of the stages of the arrangement is the installation of wooden shelves for the bath . To do this yourself is entirely within the power of everyone who has ever held a saw and a hammer.
How to make shelves for a bath?
First of all, we calculate the amount of material. The depth of the upper and lower shelves is 600 and 500 mm, respectively. The width of each 2 m. For the construction of such shelves for sauna and bath, we need to take the following:
- 6 p / m boards 40 x 100 mm;
- 13 p / m 50 x 50 mm;
- 26 p / m of the floorboard (alder or aspen will suit);
- self-tapping screws 75 mm;
- 6 pieces of metal corner 40 x 40 mm;
- wooden furniture piles Ø8 mm;
- nails.
Now consider a simple step-by-step master of the shelf manufacturing class for the bath.
- In two boards of 40 x 100 mm we make three grooves with a size of 50x30 mm. These will be guides for the remaining boards. We retreat from the edges of 350 mm and divide the middle into equal parts.
- We fix the first workpiece. To strengthen the structure from below, we fix in addition three bars 50 x 50 mm.
- Then, at a distance of 600 mm, we fix the corners and to them a second board with grooves. From the bottom, we also reinforce the posts.
- The manufacture of the skeleton of the shelves for the bath is completed.
- We make the lower part of the shelves for the bath with our own hands. To do this, at a distance of 400 mm from the floor to the posts we fasten a bar of 50x5 mm with a length of 1100 mm. We fix the corners and attach a third board to them, in which we also cut the grooves beforehand.
- Similarly we make props from a bar.
- We lay in the grooves of the beam 50 x 50 mm.
- Consider the last step of the instructions on how to make shelves for a bath. At a distance of 8-10 mm, lay out the boards. Drill holes about 5 mm deep in a diameter of 7.5 mm.
- Gradually go to the bottom shelf.
- In the end, everything is opened with a special oil and shelves for the bath with their own hands are ready!
