Here's a "fireplace" appeared in my apartment for the New Year, to the joy of my daughter.
About how and from what I made the "furnace" - I described another of my topic.
So...
The furnace is ready.. Proceeded to the portal ...
I must say right away: I collected from the “garbage” - chipboard trimmings, doors from discarded cabinets, trimmings of riling tubes, etc.
To start, I collected the lower part:
I don’t give the dimensions, because they, in the course of work, emerged from the existing requirements - I already had a “firebox” ready. First I assembled two cabinets, then connected them with a metal shelf, on which the “firebox” will be installed. The front arched panel made removable. (For normal operation of the fogger, a certain level of water is required above it. Therefore, in the case in which I drilled a control hole and removed the tube from the dropper. When refueling, this panel is removed, the tube is removed. Its end is lowered into an empty glass and water is poured through the top hole until it flows out of the tube. One refueling (about half a liter) is enough for about 10 hours of continuous operation).
After installing the "furnace", he began to manufacture the rest:
I must say right away: I love functional things, so I immediately decided that the "fireplace" would also be a chest of drawers. The upper part was made in the form of one big drawer, the side cabinets are just lockers.
I started to finish: I closed all the edges with a plastic "tsheshka", as furniture makers call it. (Profile "C"). "Facades" made of laminated white chipboard. (When buying, they were immediately cut to my size. It remains only to glue the ends with a white paper edge using an iron). For the manufacture of "bricks", I bought a couple of sheets of substrate for the laminate. I cut it into rectangles, treated it with sandpaper (specially carelessly), glued it with PVA glue. Painted with water-based paint. The whole "fireplace" was decorated with polystyrene bogete and moldings, which were putty and painted with the same water-based emulsion ....
He made a “fence” from the rilling tubes.
All electrics placed in the lower right cabinet. There is a power supply.For safety reasons (still fog, condensate and 220 volts), it earthed the metal parts and connected the entire structure via an RCD. The fireplace has two modes of operation - "flickering coals" (only neonki work. Energy consumption is miserable, like from "fireflies" in the switches) and "burning" ("fire", "smoke" and sound) For this, there are located in the cabinet three ordinary switches of the external layout - one includes neon, the second includes a fogger, cooler and halogen, and the third is a Chinese MP-3 player with a flash drive on which campfire sound is recorded and looped.
