When arranging a living space, furniture plays an important role. She can decorate the interior created by you or spoil the whole external appearance of the room. Therefore, her choice should be treated responsibly. If you are looking for original solutions, you may find that there is a wide variety of furniture of the same type, made of MDF and similar material, on the market.

If you look at furniture made of wood, then its prices may seem exorbitant. With this in mind, many home craftsmen solved this problem by making wood furniture with their own hands. In this article, we will show you how and where you can use this furniture. The main question is how do-it-yourself wooden furniture is made.

What is the best to make of

First, you need to understand what is the best way to make furniture out of wood, or rather, from what kind of wood. Remember, quality wood doesn't have to be expensive. So, as a basis, you can take special wooden shields, which can be made from a single piece of wood or obtained by pressing.

Regardless of what material you use, the process of manufacturing wood furniture requires a special approach. So, you need to choose the right base material. Wood is divided into two categories:

1. Soft.
2. Solid.

It is easier to work with soft, but it is short-lived and subject to mechanical stress, that is, after an impact, traces / dents may remain in it. As for the solid, it is more difficult to work with it, but it has a much longer operational life. If we speak for the species of wood, then among the hard ones we can distinguish:

• Acacia.
• Ash.
• Apple tree.

This material can be used in the manufacture of frame furniture. That is, the furniture that will be exposed to serious stress. As for soft breeds, this list includes:

• Fir.
• Pine.
• Juniper.

These types of wood are mainly used for making decorative parts that are not intended for high loads.

When choosing wood, you should also take into account the operating conditions of future wood furniture. So, there are rooms in which the humidity level is significantly increased. As a result, you should choose the wood that is resistant to the negative effects of moisture, that is, moisture resistant. For example, the following wood species can be used for a sauna room:

• Linden.
• Cedar.

So, if you break it all down into categories, you can get this picture. The frame of furniture is often made from pine and other soft wood. All kinds of decor are also made. Among the more reliable species, beech looms. However, it is not resistant to moisture.

As for oak, its excellent characteristics, both in hardness and in appearance, are very popular in the manufacture of dressers, beds, wardrobes, etc. If you want to make a coffee table, then the best option for this is birch. It can be used to make chairs, tables and other items.

Advice! It is not always possible to use an array in the manufacture of wooden furniture with your own hands. You can use improvised material, for example, pallets, bars, logs, etc.

Features of the production of furniture in the workshop

To understand all the difficulties of the upcoming work on the manufacture of wooden furniture with your own hands, we suggest that you familiarize yourself with the process of its production in a workshop. So, all raw materials must be stored in a special warehouse. There is also a workshop that provides a room for assembly and painting. A drying chamber is mandatory. After that, the furniture is sent to the warehouse with finished products.

In the process of its manufacture, specialized equipment is used. A large number of processes are automated by means of installed machines. For example, the following equipment can be used:

• Grinding machine.
• Thicknesser machine.
• Edgebanding machines.
• Linear planing machines, etc.

However, at home, this all may not be. Therefore, we suggest that you consider the features of the process of how to make furniture with your own hands.

Do-it-yourself furniture

Regardless of what kind of wood furniture you make, the entire technological process will consist of the following steps:

1. Markup.
2. Sawing of all workpieces.
3. Processing of workpieces.
4. Drilling technological mounting holes.
5. Assembly of all parts into one structure.
6. Painting.
7. Varnishing.

Beautiful and stylish natural wood furniture has always been considered the best option for any interior. She has not only an attractive appearance, but also comfort and warmth. Today, you can buy a set from an array only at a fairly high price, which is not always appropriate. But why overpay when beautiful and high-quality wooden furniture with your own hands is in no way inferior to ready-made ones.

How to make a wooden headset for your home yourself? It is not enough to find a suitable drawing and buy boards, you need to start with the basics. It is important to determine what kind of material the furnishings will be made of. Novice craftsmen neglect such preparation, as a result, various defects are obtained, ranging from cracking to quick breakage, swelling of wood, and its complex processing. The choice of the right wood should come first here.

Soft or hard wood: which is better?

Furniture makers use about 40 different types of wood, but all products can be combined into 2 large groups, differing in properties, processing conditions, and operation. When choosing a material, you should immediately decide what kind of wood is needed: hard or soft.

Hardwoods include sycamore, oak, elm, beech, apple, maple, mountain ash, ash, walnut... They are processed relatively well, there are no problems with them. There are rocks that are considered superhard. These are boxwood, yew, white acacia, dogwood, pistachio tree. They are used only by professional furniture makers, since the work requires experience and special tools. If there is a need to use just such breeds, then it is best to immediately order individual elements, and assemble furniture at home with your own hands. This will cost much less than buying a ready-made one. Frames and supporting structures are made from the listed hard rocks.

Fir, pine, chestnut, spruce, willow, cherry, aspen, cedar, poplar belong to the category of soft wood species. Facades are made of these materials. Their processing is simple, the tree is beautiful, has a pleasant color.

What kind of wood to choose for the manufacture of a wardrobe, tables, chest of drawers?

When you decide to make furniture yourself, you need to choose the right type of wood, since not every material is suitable for work. It takes into account how the tree will be processed, what decorative properties it has, and operating conditions.

The most popular breed is pine, it is simply processed, even a beginner can work with it.

Beech is popular for the manufacture of luxury wardrobes and chests of drawers, but not everyone can process it, since the material is solid, it is difficult to work with it.

1. Pine is the most popular material, it belongs to softwood, it is easy to process. Its impact-resistant properties are low, therefore, it is not worth making cabinets and tables that will be subjected to strong mechanical stress. The surface is easily scratched, covered with dents. Of course, the product will not break, but its appearance will not be so attractive. It is best to make shelves, front doors, small cabinets, various decorative elements, frames for upholstered furniture from pine.
2. Beech is a tree similar in strength to oak, but beech absorbs moisture strongly, so this wood is no longer suitable for rooms with high humidity levels. Before starting work, beech boards are treated with protective compounds, they are not recommended for use in kitchens, loggias, hallways, terraces, verandas. It is beech that is better than other options for making curved furniture, for giving the headset an antique effect.
3. oak has always been in the price. Oak boards are well processed, although they have their own characteristics. All products are distinguished by a high level of strength, furniture is not damaged by insects, rot, and can be used even in high humidity conditions. That is why oak furniture is used for kitchens, balconies, terraces and open verandas. The weight of such products is significant, this must be taken into account before starting work, you can hardly do without an assistant. Most often, beds, large and massive bookcases, chests of drawers are made from solid oak. The appearance of the headset will be solid, and the shade of the products will be pleasant.
4. Birch is notable for its beauty, unusual and soft shade. Almost any furniture can be made from such wood, from coffee tables and chairs to tables and beautiful cabinets and shelves. The cost of this material is acceptable, but birch cannot be used at high humidity levels, as the products will deteriorate quickly. But the material is easy to work with, it can be beautifully decorated.

Why is the price of wood furniture so high?

Why is wood furniture so expensive? There are several reasons, even if you make it yourself, you will have to spend money on high-quality material. It is not worth buying the first boards that come across, they must be of high quality. The following factors influence the formation of value:

1. Solid wood is a natural product, and today the price for such materials is higher than for others. Even special laminated chipboard boards for furniture are much cheaper, but their quality is lower, not to mention environmental friendliness.
2. The array is not as easy to process as it seems. It takes a lot of time and effort to make the necessary piece of furniture, especially since the surface should turn out to be smooth and beautiful, safe for use.
3. There are not so many headsets made of natural wood on sale, usually a product in a limited quantity is valued higher, like everything rare.
4. The appearance of the furnishings turns out to be stylish and solid, even if it is an ordinary bed assembled from a board. Any furnishings that are solid and attractive will always cost more than standard furniture.

Wooden furniture will cost a lot, and some experience is required to make it. If you buy the material yourself, choose suitable drawings for work, then you can make a set of furniture yourself. All that is needed is patience and attentiveness. Attention should also be paid to the choice of wood, since the quality, appearance and service life of furniture items largely depends on this.
