The use of chipboard as the main building material
Today, a natural massif in its pure form is almost impossible to find in the setting. After all, headsets made of natural wood are considered expensive and quite elite pieces of furniture. Therefore, the array is replaced with affordable material such as chipboard.
In most cases, the thickness of these plates reaches 16 mm. Thicker sheets are also sold. Material cutting is carried out on machines.
You can carry out work at home using an electric jigsaw, but you can’t avoid bumps and chips. After all, it is almost impossible to saw off the chipboard at home with a jigsaw.
Edging
One of the weaknesses of this material is considered to be sawing, since it is through it that moisture passes through the easiest way. In this regard, due to poor-quality protection, swelling of the ends is not excluded. Therefore, it is preferable to cover the ends with edges, as in the photo of furniture, which is made by yourself below.
On the modern market there are several varieties of edges:
- Melamine. This is the most affordable edge of excellent quality. Its gluing is possible independently using a conventional iron.
- PVC is an excellent edge choice. Its gluing is available exclusively on the machine.
- ABS edge, reminiscent of the edge of PVC, but only created from natural material.
Facades
The front part and doors of the decor, including garden furniture with their own hands, are made of the best quality material.
The facade is considered a separate piece of furniture and, as a rule, is made to order.
In the case when the facades have unusual shapes, they can be produced over an extended period of time.
Types of facades
Since the main function of the facade is decorative, it is accordingly proposed in a wide variety. They differ in facade in material as well as externally.
Laminated MDF is a pressed and sufficiently moisture resistant material. Usually the surface is processed under a natural array.
However, even in the most durable film, after a certain period of time, the edges crack and also recede. The main advantage of this material is its affordable cost and speed of production.
In addition to the facades of the deaf type, there are options for the figured appearance of a stained-glass window. The glass part is fixed on a special pad.
Wood facades will appeal to adherents of natural materials, but their cost is quite high. In addition, environmental friendliness is also controversial.

Crates
There are many methods for the production of boxes for headsets, as well as furniture from pallets with their own hands. One of the simple ones is perimeter assembly using chipboard.
If it is necessary to create an original facade, it must be screwed onto the frame main part from the inside.
In addition, the facade is often mounted on an eccentric in the form of one of the walls of the box. Moreover, the main task is not to assemble the necessary box, but to fix it correctly.
