Instruction
1. Decide on the sizes and form of future sandbox and execute the drawing on paper. If in sand one child plays, then it is possible to make sandbox small – square with the party of 1.2 m. If there are many children – let it will be spacious. Side height – no more than 380 mm. That animals did not use sandbox as toilet, it is possible to provide for it cover. The cover can consist of two halves that children could open and close it.
2. Choose the place for installation of product on the site. Do not place sandbox too far from the house. Better if you are able to see children in window. You should not establish sandbox under trees. Dung of birds, the fallen-down foliage and shadow the most part of day – not the best satellites of sand games.
3. Cut board of necessary length. For cover rabbeted boards or veneer sheet can be picked up. Boards to proshkurta. If the sandbox is lacquered, separately apply varnish on each board. After drying of varnish process boards abrasive paper once again. Especially responsibly approach grinding of seats.
4. Collect product on plain surface. In corners establish bars and twist boards self-tapping screws. It is undesirable to use nails.
5. Prepare soil. Cut off the turf and fill up with gravel. This gravel pillow will not allow to be formed to the swamp in sand and will not pass weeds. If the area allows, it is good to make around sandbox and wooden blind area. From it it is easier to collect the sand which was pouring out in the course of the game.
6. Establish sandbox, having slightly buried bars and the lower board in soil. Paint product, fill up sand. The best is the washed-out white bank sand. Do not use sand for construction jobs. It spoils clothes and hands of children.
