Geometrical form. Also, the finish is different!

For the manufacture of ottoman we need.

2). Wooden bars with a section of 40x40. (8-10 pieces).

Nike meter, vernier caliper.
12) .Fabric furniture (tapestry, velor, capitone, leatherette, etc.).
thirteen). Legs or furniture castors.

Having decided on the necessary dimensions of our ottoman, cut two circles from sheet plywood with a diameter of 360 mm, and cut the same circle out of foam rubber.

We cut the circles out of plywood, saw off the bars in size. We mark the center on the bars and on plywood, using a caliper.

We drill 3.0 mm then 5.5 mm 2 with a hole from the bottom and top in the bars and plywood. We connect the bars and circles, tightly fixed them with screws - the Skeleton for the ottoman is ready.

Circles and bars connected by euro screws to the skeleton.

Then a rectangle with a width equal to the height of the skeleton should be cut out from a sheet of plywood and fixed along the perimeter, making a wall.

Around the perimeter we fix a sheet of thin plywood or fiberboard.


The wall is fully fixed.

A part made of foam rubber 40 mm thick is glued to the seat, and around either 10 mm thick foam rubber or synthetic winterizer, to choose from.

Fastening of foam rubber and synthetic winterizer.

A cover is sewn from the selected upholstery fabric according to a pattern similar to that in which we made blanks for the skeleton, do not forget to leave room for a seam, cut 10 mm more.

We sew a cover.

The cover is ready.

Ready cover - the upholstery is put on a wooden soft ottoman and with the help of a stapler or nails and is fixed at the base of the ottoman.

We put on a cover and fasten with a bottom with a stapler or nails.

We cut one circle of thin plywood. It remains to attach the legs and the ottoman is ready to do it yourself.

We cut out the legs with a crown. We fix the legs or furniture wheels.

Ready product!
