Hello to all lovers homemade. When there is enough experience in the carpentry and the necessary amount of materials, then there is always the opportunity to do something different do it yourself, and spending a lot less money on this than buying in a store. This article will discuss how the author made a corner sofa with his own hands. Complex constructions will not be here, so any novice master will be able to repeat.
In order to make such a sofa, you will need:
* Sheet of chipboard or plywood
* Wooden blocks, boards
* A circular saw
* Screwdriver
* Wood screws
* Foam rubber and synthetic winterizer
* Faux leather
That's all you need for the further assembly of our sofa.
Therefore, we immediately proceed to the process itself.
Step one.
It is most convenient at the first stage to sketch a simple drawing, which will make it clear which details need to be cut and determine the size of the future sofa. First you need to use a circular saw or a jigsaw to saw off the sticks along the width of the future product, six of them will be needed. When working with a power tool, be careful and do not forget to wear safety glasses and gloves.
To strengthen the structure, you need to make corners of chipboard or plywood. The main component will be three parts from chipboard, which you need to saw out a jigsaw and make grooves for the bars, as well as sawn from the chipboard upper narrow walls, which will create a rectangular profile when sheathing. We supplement the side with bars, this will be the armrest. As a result, we should get separate parts, this is an even sofa frame and a corner, which has two sides, unlike the first and longer.
Step Two
Now you need to make a seat, we will make it from chipboard, plywood is also suitable. We cut out two sheets with a circular saw, one on the seat, the other on the back, after making measurements of the frame.
After that, we fasten the finished sheets to the frame using a screwdriver on the screws. We do the same with the second frame, it will take a little more material, but it's worth it.
Step Three
It's time to think about the convenience of using the future sofa, so for this you need to make it soft so that hanging out on it is as comfortable as possible. Two materials will help us to make it soft. These are foam rubber and synthetic winterizer. We glue our soft material over the entire surface of the back and seat.
Instead of gluing, you can use a furniture stapler and fix all the brackets.
Step Three
Is it possible to call such a product a sofa if it is not skin-tight, so let's do it. The choice of material was carefully considered and based on its advantages.
A few pluses eco-leather:
* The composition of eco-leather includes a polyurethane film, when genuine leather made from the skin of an animal
* Eco-leather air permeability is better than natural acrylic
* The resistance to wear and tear of eco-leather is at a decent level and is approximately equal to genuine leather, it also has a wide temperature range, both positive and deep negative and has the ability to recover from deformations
* Another plus is that eco-leather is a fairly warm material, but unlike genuine leather, bare parts of the body will not sweat when sitting
* Faux leather cannot cause allergies, as it is hypoallergenic, unlike natural
* As you use eco-leather products, you need to be careful and regularly clean it.
We talked about all the pluses, now you can even fit our sofa with this beautiful material.
