To save, it is possible to make all the hands, for this purpose it is necessary to know how to make an arbor. There are many various options differing in material, a design, color, etc. That everyone could cope with work, we suggest to consider a simple arbor from a tree which will become decoration of any personal plot.
How to make a simple arbor?
For a start it is worth picking up the perfect place which depends on several factors. In the first very much it concerns illumination or opacity of the territory. Consider also existence of winds and quality of soil. Interests many from what cheap to make with own hands an arbor, and so everything depends on a design and than it is more difficult, more material will be required to those. The most popular and available material – a tree, but also it is possible to use polycarbonate or plastic. To begin work, it is necessary to prepare the tools specified in the table.
How to make an arbor in house conditions?
General plan of construction:
Work course:
- Using pegs and threads, designate perimeter of the basis of future arbor. Surely check that diagonals were equal. To fix racks, dig out openings about 60-90 cm in depth. Pour 5 cm of sand twice more concrete there. Then insert racks and surely level them a plumb and fix in two directions that they were not displaced. Concrete has to dry at least 48 h.
- Saying about how quickly to make with own hands an arbor, it is worth understanding a framework of a floor which will not concern the earth. For logs take bars of 5х15 cm and stack them through each 40 cm that will allow to create a strong design. Use the level that everything was exactly. Metal corners, attach logs in a wooden frame.
- Establish additional racks for support of a roof, and it is better to fix them by means of big nails. After that it is possible to pass to a floor for which it is the best of all to use special floorboards which are not afraid of weather changing. Using self-tapping screws, fix them to laths. If you take nails, then previously drill openings.
- Continuing to understand how to make a summer arbor, we will pass to a cover for which at first it is necessary to make the top binding of racks. Bars of 10х10 cm on which ends it is necessary to make L-shaped pro-saws that the design turned out strong are suitable for this purpose. Fasten them with big nails, having made previously in opening boards.
- To establish a roof, it is necessary to cut the bearing bars of a construction farm and to fix them, hammering nails on a corner. After that symmetrize additional rafters, being guided by the drawing.
- To cover a cover, it is possible to take boards or big sheets of plywood. It is necessary to fix the chosen material self-tapping screws through each 25 cm. From above roof roofing material, and then, a bituminous tile or sheets of metal.
- We approached the finishing works, and it was necessary to create an arbor protection, in principle it can and be not done, but it adds a cosiness and safety. Besides you can choose other option of a protection, but rail-posts which have height of 70-80 cm are usually used. Attach the lower and top bars, and then, and horizontal membranes. It is the best of all to do it by self-tapping screws, twisting them at an angle. In the same way it is possible to make also the top protection. If in operating time there were cracks, then it is possible to close up them by means of filling on a tree.
