Bars are selected, the quantity of 4 pieces (Required hardwood), size 600X50X50 350X30X30 mm (8 pcs.) Board, as well as screws 40 x 4.

Preparing the tool (which is) this list: a ruler, calipers, turning gouges, drills of different diameters (20, 10 and 5 mm), saw, planer (fits double), semi chisel, file, rasp, screwdriver and polished shoe. Even if all listed in there you do not, you can use different technologies and use different tools. All you need, expressed in actions that: sawing, planning, cutting, drawing and sometimes assumed.

Guides on points at the ends of the blanks for the legs, make them neat octagonal. Alternately, it is better using a lathe to grind out the details necessary for you form.

Realizing the device stool and having the necessary skills for this will be to recreate a set of variations on how to make a chair and maybe even completed construction of other furniture, which is similar in structure (for example - tables, yes, even chairs).

Our work continues - Manufacture of seats. One of the edges of the boards we planning, trying to make it as straight as possible. The resulting work piece We saw in half. A part of gluing or another, then it is all carefully Planes.

Guides on the contours of our board of stool, take a hacksaw, rounded and flat chisels, with the help of rasp and if it is possible to file holder, cut a slab of markup.

On the inner side of our plates are strengthening small bar, and then screw it with screws. This action prevents the stool from warping. Then perforated with holes, resulting in the legs. Each part file off the stool, lacquered be stained. All our parts are assembled with glue and screws.

Again, it's not necessarily all, and some tools might well replace the other. In general, all you have.

We saw on the length of a piece chair legs, mark on each end of the contours and centers for the holes - to begin drilling. Planers remove thin shavings from the surface and the chamfer of the edges. Place points at the ends of rungs and attach them (by grinding), a cylindrical shape.

Desirable using a lathe for wood alternately grind round studs on each of the blanks. Separate each piece with varnish, stain or treat and collect the chair on glue.

As a material for interior can serve as a cotton rope. Ordinary clothesline stained in the color, coupled with the tone of our wood chairs. Criss-crossing her seat and back, and after each of the moves with a rope, make an extra turn around the cylindrical rod.

To produce the elements you can apply polyurethane foam upholstery or foam. Cutting it to the desired size (about 40x40 cm and 20x40 cm seat to the back) and wrapped in a beautiful tapestry or cloth.
