What you need to know when making children's beds from a tree with your own hands

There is not always a desire to spend money to buycertain furniture. But this is not necessary. After all, something can be done independently. In the modern world, with such a variety of tools and materials, it will not be difficult to make children's beds out of natural wood.

What is required to design a bed

To build a crib, you need the following:

1. Side boards. They need 4 bars and 18 round bars. In the bars from the front side it is necessary to make through holes, so that all parts can be bolted together.
2. To assemble the beds of wood with your own hands, you will need a side board. It will need 14 bars of various sizes and 12 round columns, 4 of which should be a bit narrower.
3. Bottom. For the bottom we need 2 wide thick bars, 4 bars thinner, twice smaller than the previous ones, 1 sheet of plywood.
4. Assembling the beds of wood with their own hands without fasteners will not work. You will need 8 hidden bolts, nuts, washers, 4 legs, which can be unscrewed from unnecessary old furniture.

In order to make wood beds your ownhands, you will need the following tools: a hacksaw, a flat surface, stationery, tape measure, angles, a screwdriver, pliers, a drill.

We proceed to the assembly.Knowing the algorithm of work, you will be able to continue to build beds from a tree with your own hands. Immediately it is worth paying attention to the fact that the parts are fastened to each other with corners, and not with bolts. In the bars we drill through holes and insert them into each other, fixing it with glue. When sawing it is necessary to strictly observe the dimensions so that the bottom panel of the bed matches the width of the mattress. Feet for the bed, if there are ready, put on the glue. You can also make supports yourself. To do this, we cut a wooden bar into equal parts. In addition, to make a children's bed, we buy a mattress that matches the size of the bottom panel, or adjust the old one to the required parameters. After that, we attach the legs to the transverse side panels. To do this, leave gaps of 1.5 cm across the main bed panel, so that later you can fix the supporting bars. After that, we fasten the legs to the furniture we assemble, and we also install the longitudinal part of the bed. Next, fasten the base for the hinge and install the hinge itself. For the base of the bed it is recommended to choose plywood, as it is light and sufficiently durable material.
