Kitchen the hands from scratch. The detailed story from the first person

In our loved heading the hands we, in the main thing, write about small pieces of furniture, lamps, benches and so forth without the aid of others the made people worldwide. The present post strikingly differs from a previous material: in – 1-x, the kitchen – completely is made completely; in – 2-x, in particular it is curious and informative that the kitchen was made not by a professional mebelshchik or the cabinetmaker, and programmer Dmitry Podpalchenko. The main specialty of the founder, nevertheless, affected success of so tremendous project – as Dmitry writes, at first it collected all necessary information, in details understood all aspects, precisely calculated all necessary materials, accessories and the special tool, and only then, started implementation of the thought.

Impressing on adequacy and a rationality an approach and, as a result – a beautiful result. And now we esteem as Dmitry depicts (and illustrates a photo) each step to advance to success of own epic action.

The apartment is bought, repair is made, line for furniture. We begin, of course, with kitchen.

What kitchen we wish? Easy in an interior. We refuse the top lockers owing to open shelves from the tempered glass — such makary, we will not close a fascinating sketch of a tile. Comfortable in use. For the bottom shifaner one right decision — boxes of complete promotion, the conclusive favourite in these decisions are products of the Austrian company Blum.

Having made miscalculations at mebelshchik — beginning from garage samodelkiny and finishing known brands — I received numbers (Kiev) from 4 to 7 тыщ dollars (were as well other, frightening numbers are higher 10 тыщ than dollars — Alno, Scavolini). It thus that at kitchen is only the lower part. And it without the price of equipment, a sink, the mixer. It is a lot of? Strongly there is a lot of. For these means it is possible to get the car.

Let’s understand pricing of mebelshchik a little. As it appears, everything is very simple — total prime cost of materials is multiplied on factor from 2 (garage) to 3 and even (brand) is higher. The two third prices of cool kitchen as it appears, it is the share of accessories. The accessories for the 1st kitchen box of complete promotion of Blum Tandembox cost a little less than 100 dollars, but to you each box will manage in 200–300 dollars. Good profitability, taking in attention very ordinary in assembly and perfectly documentary accessories, the truth? Actually — it is a profit in 100–200 dollars in 15(!) minutes of work.

But there is more to come. Having paid very solid means, at all the fact that you receive a candy. I made sure of it on an example of the neighbor who has given for kitchen of 3 тыщи of dollars — lack of expensive accessories, is made through an ass, a dopilivaniye method on a place, the table-top was blown up in some months of use. At present the neighbor is going to have legal proceedings with these companions.

And if you wish that – or such — any not standard, prepare for all aping and assurances that it is unreal in principle. Mebelshchiki drive a potochka — to what they got used and that it is possible to do not so including brains.

Well and a finishing signal there was a zaniye of that fact that to the neigbour the locker room absolutely and without the aid of others was made by her sister. If similar in a condition to make the woman for what I finished Polytechnic University?

So, the decision is accepted, we collect kitchen without the aid of others.

Certainly, in any business there are many aspects, and a demon as it is clear, in details. We fill up theoretical base at forums, on website very quite good for these purposes sdelaimebel.ru (have a look, what furniture is done by the ркуами by people in the section "Competition"), we study a photo. More shortly, in a web there are answers to all questions.

We divide work into stages:

Stiffened

The most usual step which nevertheless, it is necessary to execute especially laboriously. As it is clear, right angles do not happen also to you, to within mm, it is necessary to execute the place drawing where you wish to arrange kitchen, having specified at all this placement of conclusions of water, an electricity, well and any bad pipes if you have them.

I on a step of repair bought a laser range finder of Leica Disto D2. It is megaconvenient piece which in life is required not once therefore it is necessary not to stint.

During measurement I faced that the corner appeared not direct, but developed — 91 degrees. And here this here one degree will give us a five-centimetric hole between a wall and a bum of the last curbstone on three-meter sector — it if we collect "truly", at right angle. Later I will show, how without efforts solved this dely.

Development of a design

The kitchen furniture actually always has a modular design — in other words consists of separate curbstones. The width of a curbstone is usually multiple to 15 centimeters — 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 120 see. In fact, it only a tribute of unification of production therefore nothing stops from difference from this standard. At assembly, kitchen curbstones are fastened between themselves and covered with a table-top — therefore the modularity of a design can be not obvious.

What does the kitchen curbstone after all represent? A bottom, two боковины, two very narrow levels fastening боковины from above (do so, only for economy of a material) and a back wall from narrow DVP. It is base on which all is made up the weight another. Whether it is difficult to make the such? No, absolutely not. On a design step we do not need to know, what method we will fasten all these spare parts together.

There are some favourite programs for furniture designing. Certain do it in the autocode, someone voobshchy does not use software and does drawings on paper. I recommend PRO100 — it is truly ordinary before excess, you will accustom to it in a couple of hours.

Here that at me left finally:

In total as to Blum production — it is tremendous. Use a firm aaplet of Blum Dynalog — it will make everything for you and as result, you receive drawings from all accessories necessary for installation by a marking:

I will tell design details below, on an example of a photo of already finished articles.

Purchase of kitchen equipment

I recommend not to leave this step to a result. At least, it is better, if not to get then truly to be caused with that you buy later and to download all documentation on these products. The oven, a plate, a sink — they though are made on certain kitchen standards, but can have constructional features. To do kitchen, at all without representing what equipment you there will put — incorrectly, намучаетесь. I here, for example, not considered everything with an oven — therefore заместо a facade under an oven, you while see a hole (it is necessary is sensitive фрезернуть a facade, yet did not master).

I bought an oven and an induction cooking surface of Gorenje, Eleyus extract, Franke Java sink, the mixer with system of a filtration of Grohe Blue (the 1st in Ukraine in this performance, by the way). $3200

Order of firewood (particleboard, DVP, facades)

Earlier I heartily considered that furniture creation — is the huge shops, expensive machines, 10-ki people of the personnel. Happens naturally and so, but many work and in garages. For this purpose, to create furniture it is not necessary to saw a particleboard and to do facades — to these just and are engaged 10-ki people in huge shops on expensive machines. There to us it is expensive.

The Excel-file containing the list of all panels necessary to us should become result of design. Here is as follows:

Kitchen the hands from scratch. The detailed story from the first person

Concerning plitny materials, my choice was such:
Particleboard of Egger Cappuccino 18mm as a material of cases
Particleboard of Egger Platinum White 16mm as a material for boxes
DVP Egger for back walls of cases
Colored MDF as facades

Now look, what aspect. That company where we will come, has a warehouse aaplet of a particleboard — these are those options of thickness and flowers which they keep in stock povsevremenno in large quantities. If that the particleboard which is necessary for you, is in a warehouse aaplet — all ok, you pay for so many square meters, how many it is necessary for you. And here if does not come — you should take a particleboard sheets. One leaf, in case of a particleboard of Egger — is 5,8 sq.m. And if you need 6,3 sq.m. all the same it is necessary to get two leaves.

The companies which are engaged porezky and a kromkovaniy particleboard, creation of facades, now it is possible to meet actually in any regional center of the country. You to them — drawings and means. They to you — all your firewood in packed form with delivery though to the apartment.

Porezka and a kromkovka of a particleboard, DVP, facades, delivery — all this managed to me in 650 dollars.

Accessories order (handles, legs, тандембоксы, other)

Any troubles. But Lerua Marlenam as there it is presented in the main thing unworthy массмаркет is better not to ransack on everyones. It is better to find the decent company supplier of furniture accessories with the huge range and to take everything there.

I bought:
12 sets for boxes of complete promotion of Blum Tandembox Intivo
2 loops + bluemotion for a door under a wash basin
1 vykatny grid with a dovodchik under an oven
All this costed $1200

Tool purchase

Voobshchem, at though what rukasty little boy already is certain tools.
I had to buy in addition шуруповерт Makita, an electrofret saw of Bosch, a clamp and a prisadochnik of Wolfcraft.

I to a descent will warn — without шуруповерта in assembly of furniture there is nothing. There absolutely unlimited quantity саморезов. And the Chinese single hand-made articles for 40 dollars will not promote you. Shurupovert for the man, it as дилдо for the lady. Do not stint. Please itself. It is required.

So, at first process we have:

At first, we will carry firewood on a balcony and we will sort on curbstones. The benefit, on each element is the sticker respective number of a detail in the above-stated list of details:

Well and, perhaps, we will begin assembly. Actually all Italian cabinet furniture gathers on shkant (чопики) — advantage of this method that any parts of a fixing element not вылазят outside, a shortcoming — the furniture collected on shkant is not folding. Mebelshchiki for such purposes prefer конфирмат — it is much more least exacting according to admissions.

Connection on shkant asks accuracy of adjustment of reciprocal openings in 0,5 mm. That result is achievable without introduction of the special tool, but with bolshushchy hemorrhoids. Therefore, that was acquired here the tool:

This is a prisadochnik under shkant of Wolfcraft Dowelmaster, the principle of its work can be beheld here.

We drill the 1st openings in боковине curbstones:

So, our problem to collect the first curbstone and to realize, whether our hands grow from an ass, or nevertheless from shoulders.

We take боковину, we will do openings which will be connected to a bottom shkant. Direct attention to the limiter of depth of drilling on a drill. For what purposes it is necessary, I hope to explain it is not necessary. Бзззынь:

Here that at us left:

Openings on each side — 40 mm. from edges, central in the center. Width боковины (it matters, I will tell later) — 560 mm. Prisadochnik works in a mode as drillings of reciprocal openings, and copyings. We copy on the second боковину. Such mechanism of work of a prisadochnik for drilling of reciprocal openings, I show on an example царги:

Kitchen the hands from scratch. The detailed story from the first person

I will remind that at connection on shkant, accuracy of drilling of reciprocal openings (a plus-minus of half of mm) is basic. With data of tools at me never appeared difficulties with they be details entered each other (postanyvy) with small effort. This accessory costs practically nothing — 40 dollars. It very much will save up your time — I, for the sake of enthusiasm, tried to make a manual marking on test slices of a particleboard — it in times more time and much more a great opportunity for a mistake.

Here a box bottom with already drilled reciprocal openings under боковины:

We drilled 20 openings and вуала, our hands grow not from an ass:

Oka, we move further. Now we need to equip a curbstone with dovodchik, legs and a back wall from DVP.
In installation of dovodchik there is nothing difficult — all in the same aaplet of Blum Dynalog, you receive the accurate sizes of points where will be fastens the directing. One rule here operates — seven times measure, one cut off:

Kitchen the hands from scratch. The detailed story from the first person

It is simple, as two times two. If will be mistaken in borders of 3 millimeters — all the same everything will perfectly work. It is beautiful equipment.

To mount legs — too anything difficult. The main thing to set for itself a standard on their arrangement and to follow it on all curbstones:

Kitchen the hands from scratch. The detailed story from the first person

One more curbstone (the widest, 80 see) kept up. On it already stand directing and legs.

At all it is not necessary to worry because of a certain hlipkost of a product — as the back wall will be mounted — the curbstone will be poured by pleasant durability. Here the initial step of fastening of a back is shown — the bottom is taken by 2 саморезами along the edges, diagonals and corners are measured, the top is taken by a clamp to царге. Now it is possible to beat safely саморезы (having made preparatory drilling by a two-millimetric drill):

Well here, it seems, already there is a progress:

We prepare facades. At the left on a facade — the drilling conductor (the same Wolfcraft), more to the right — a manual vertical drill:

Process of assembly of boxes, to chagrin did not photograph — with these accessories it is very usual work. On one box 10 minutes leave at most.
Three business hours and facades already on boxes:

Here business was entered by an electrofret saw — to them I sawed through openings under sockets, after that просиликонил opened рез. Well also hung the control unit the filter and a derzhalka of the filter:

When all curbstones were ready, time them came to reunite. On this step essentially, regulating legs, to deduce them in level — in other words top of curbstones should lie in one plane. We clamp curbstones between themselves clamps, and by all means we do "lining" — wood whetstone in which there is a drill. If it not to make — on an exhaust outlet there will be severe chips.

Brought a table-top, Luxeform Boston of 38 mm. Asked to make cuts, made, but, look, how it is original (I truly, voobshchy, commas placed?):

Kitchen the hands from scratch. The detailed story from the first person

In principle, they are right. To transport a bulky stoleshka with complete cut — risk — can break. It was necessary to work as a fret saw. Rez by all means it is necessary засиликонить — the open end face of a particleboard will promptly become swollen, if it not to make. Well and right there it is possible to behold, as the question with an obtuse angle ventured — everything is very simply leveled. Naturally, I for earlier did the drawing with geometry calculation.

The small ambush waited with a sink. To summaries it is written "The companion, take a core and *бни it is good on the sticker center". From the back, in that place where there should be openings, it is made spent on drink — ah so time, as on a table-top. I took a core, took a hammer and give тюкать on a sink for 500 dollars. Well not so so. The hand did not rise, the heart was compressed. Therefore I hammered and made openings around after that тюкнул, processed ratfily and everything became excellent:

I too mastered bathroom equipment. Oh, as I напарился with a crane choice … The filtered water is necessary, but to deduce this bloody additional tap to me it would not be desirable at all – I aimed to find the crane with giving both filtered, and tap water. The choice of similar mixers in the market is very poor. I was wildly pleased, when found such piece, as Grohe Blue. Its beauty, it seems, that it not only only the mixer and the firm filter, and that company as Grohe, I am ready to trust blindly. Well high:
