In furniture stores, you can buy everything that will need: wooden elements, the basis of MDF or chipboard, fittings, etc. Moreover, in your power to independently make part of the details.

For example, after trimming fruit trees, a lot of natural material remains, from which you can make a plank and a plank. Much faster and easier to work with freshly sponsored branches, which are processed using an ax and hacksaws.

Parts of the trunk are splitting on the lamps, each of which is clothed from all sides before receiving a plate. You do not need to do too thin blanks, otherwise the future shelf for books or other items, made by their own hands simply cracking back in the drying process. The latter occurs at room conditions, and continues at least 2-3 months.

If there is a need to build the most simple and concise honeboard for the kitchen or bathroom, you can go as follows:

• Stocking two long and pair of short boards, the height and length of the shelves will depend on the dimensions;
• Buy not less than 12 self-length of medium length and a couple of canopies so that your regiment can firmly and reliably hang on the wall;
• It does not matter whether your purpose is a simple shelf for shoes or other items, you will have to work with a screwdriver and a drill with your own hands. Do not forget to buy a decorative edge ribbon and couple of anchors;
• Assembly begins with the fact that individual wooden elements need to correctly set up relative to each other. Transverse boards are attached necessarily flush;
• To facilitate work, a shelf for the phone or shoes, built with your own hands, should do in stages. So, for example, if it consists of two horizontal parts (as in our case), it is better to initially collect two midwakes, which will be collected together by self-sighted fasteners;
• At the end of the work, the shelf must be painted if it is made of wood, or go to the edge of PVC, if it comes to the product from MDF or chipboard.

When the shelf for the hunting bow or decorative baubles, made by their own hands, will completely dry, on the joints of the boards are attached canopies. And screws need to screw both in the upper and lower board. On the wall, in exactly titled places, holes are drilled, choppers are driven there and screws screwed.
