  • Also file strips for the grilles of the 35 cm shelf

Tip. Use S4S bars for planks if you cannot find lattice molding. S4S means that the board is sanded from all four sides.

Sand the parts with sandpaper at all corners and edges so that they are smooth and free of debris.

Drill two through holes at both ends of each rail.

Tip. The holes should be slightly smaller than the diameter of the screw to prevent splitting of the tree and small enough for a tight grip.

Assemble shelves

  4. Repeat the same process to complete the other five shelves.

Tip. Cut a 1.5 cm workpiece to fit between the rails for a convenient layout.

Determine the position of the shelf

  1. Place all four legs on a flat surface, parallel to each other and flush at the ends.
  2. Measure the upper end of one leg, mark every 40 cm with a total of four marks. Draw a line by connecting all the marks to indicate the centers of the shelves.
  3. Continue the line around each leg.

Tip . The upper shelf will be flush with the upper ends of the legs, so here you do not need tags.

Assemble a shelf and two legs

  1. Place two legs parallel to each other on a flat surface at a distance of 35 cm.
  2. Apply glue to the upper surfaces of the legs in one of the places on the shelf using lines.

  3. Attach the support to each leg with screws.
  4. Fasten the rest of the legs
  5. Repeat the process with the other two legs, that is, set on a flat surface and apply glue.

Bathroom rack

bathroom shelfLayered racks for the bathroom Provide ample storage space, look stylish and without taking up too much space. This convenient shelving cabinet consists of four shelves with a width of 60 cm, a depth of 40 to 10 cm. The design is not complicated, if you have basic skills in carpentry, that is, you can use ordinary tools, then if you have all the materials, you can easily assemble the rack for 4 to 5 hours.

The picture below shows the tools and materials that you will need to work.

bathroom shelfInstructions on how to make a do-it-yourself bathroom rack

1 Cut the bottoms of the shelves. Use a circular saw to cut a sheet of plywood. Use the resulting template 60 x 120 cm to saw the rest of the workpiece for the bottom of the shelves:

  • 40 x 60 cm
  • 30 x 60 cm
  • 20 x 60 cm
  • 10 x 60 cm

2 Cut the plywood into strips. Saw off six 8-centimeter wide strips from the remaining sheet of 120 x 180 cm plywood. This will be your stock for legs and shelves.

3 Cut legs.

  1. Cut out two front legs.
  2. Mark a 15 ° angle at both ends of each leg so that they are parallel to each other.
  3. At the upper end, from the corner, mark 2 cm along the upper edge.
  4. Then another one centimeter from the opposite corner.
  5. Connect the marks to create a line that grips one of the 15 ° angles.
  6. At the lower end of the leg, measure the angle and make a mark. Draw a line between the mark and the opposite corner.
  7. Cut the entire width of the sheet at the lower end.

Tip. Lower corners allow legs to stand on the floor. It is normal if these angles are not perfect. You can simply polish them, here a lot of precision is not needed.

4 Cut the shelves and the rear bar.

  • 8 pieces of 65 cm for the front and rear
  • 2 pieces of 40 cm for the bottom shelf
  • 2 pieces of 30 cm for the second shelf
  • 2 pieces 10 cm long for the third shelf
  • 2 pieces 10 ms for the top shelf
  • 1 pc 65 cm for the rear rail

5 Sand and assemble shelves.

  1. Sand the parts with sandpaper, rounding off all sharp edges.
  2. Apply glue to all four edges of the bottom of the first shelf and to the ends of the two side parts.
  3. Set the front, back and sides to the edges of the bottom, with the sides located front and rear.
  4. Drill additional holes from the lower edges of the front, back, and sides, positioning them 15 cm from the edges of the bottom.
  5. Repeat this step for each shelf.

You should also consider that the holes should be slightly smaller than the screws.The idea is that, on the one hand, the hole should be small enough so that the thread holds tight, but at the same time large enough so that the screw does not split the wood.

6 Cut your legs at an angle.

  1. Fold your legs in pairs.
  2. Place the hind leg over the corner foreleg so that the upper end of the front leg aligns and merges with the upper end of the hind leg.
  3. Use a pencil to draw a line where the parts overlap.

Tip. Cutting corners can lead to some errors. Therefore, install the shelves on the front and back legs, as if they were already attached to check how the legs connect from above. Cut the corner on the front foot accordingly. Do not worry if the corners do not turn out perfect. Most joints will be covered with veneered staples.

7 Align the legs together.

  1. Drill three evenly spaced through holes through the tapered top of the front legs to penetrate the hind legs.
  2. Apply glue to the rear edge of the front foot and fasten to the rear foot with screws.
  3. Repeat the same process to connect the second pair of legs.
  4. Let the glue dry.

8 Fasten the joints

  1. Saw two squares of plywood 15 cm each.
  2. Place them flush with the top of the joined pair of legs.
  3. Trace the outline of the two connected legs in a square, and then saw along the lines to make a bracket.
  4. Drill holes and screw each bracket to the outside of the legs with the screws in each leg.

9 The final stage.

  1. Pokraste regiment, although it is of course optional.
  2. But what is desirable to do is to varnish the surface to protect the shelving from moisture.
  3. Use a square and a pencil to mark the places on the shelves for the inner surfaces of both pairs of legs.
  4. Set the square at each mark flush with the rear edge of the hind leg so that it crosses the front leg at an angle.
  5. Draw the top of the square to represent the top of each shelf.

10 Assemble the block.

  1. Install the bracket between the pairs of legs so that it is flush with the tops and rear edges of the legs.
  2. Drill through holes through the brackets on the outside of the legs.
  3. At all ends, secure the brackets and legs to the rear rail with screws.
  4. Position all the shelves between the legs so that they are flush with the rear edges, and its upper edges are located on the location lines on the legs.
  5. Drill two through holes through all four legs and screw them into the shelves.

Tip. Assemble the rack by putting it on the back, so it is easier to fasten the shelves.

If your bathroom is as small as the author of this project, you can take advantage of his experience. In this case, the small size of the room is an advantage, because you need two walls close to each other to fix the shelf between them.

  1. Measure the size of the profile.
  2. Cut the rubber to size.
  3. Glue the rubber to one L-profile. (on the outside where there are no holes)

Shelves in the bathroom from pipes

 

Rack from pipes to the bathroom

do-it-yourself pipe shelf in the bathroomTo make such a shelf out of pipes is not a difficult task, but you will have to work. The main task is to get the pipes. If you want to do everything yourself, you will need a grinder and a die and, accordingly, a complete set of locksmith tools. From materials, if you are going to make the same shelf in size as in the photograph, you will need to prepare:

 

  • Two pieces of pipe 300, 260, 460 mm long
  • 200 mm pipes for cross - 8 pieces
  • 700 mm pipes - 2 pcs.
  • Eight tees
  • Ten knees
  • 4 galvanized flanges
  • Plywood 25 mm thick 600 by 300

 

 

 

First of all, we prepare all the details, cut the plywood according to the size of the shelves

  • We drill holes in the shelves of 25 mm, grind, varnish or paint.
  • We screw flanges on the lower ends of the pipes, tees on top, a horizontal pipe with tees at the end to the tees.
  • We fix the next part of the pipe from above, and through the holes we “put on” the shelf.
  • So gradually we collect the entire rack, at the upper ends we wind the flanges.
  • Check the level, if necessary, adjust the shelves horizontally.

By the way, the flanges can not be screwed to the floor, but simply glued, unless you are going to store something very heavy on the shelves.

  • PVC primer and cement
  • PVC pipes half a inch thick
  • PVC furniture connectors
  • PVC corner connectors and caps
  • 3 wooden boards 23 x 60 2 cm thick
  • Drill

Step 2: Cut the pipes

You will need such sizes

  • (4x) 15 m long for legs
  • (9x) 53 cm for long horizontal support
  • (14x) 6.25 cm long for side supports
  • (20x) 27 cm long for vertical side gaskets
  • (4x) 10 cm long for the top

Step 3: Assemble the Parts “Dry”

Step 4: Glue the base

Step 5: Install end caps

Working with PVC caps is a great way to make the structure beautiful :) In addition, this prevents water and dirt from entering the open pipe. By adding end caps to the top and bottom of the shelf, we create foot pads and completely seal the pipe against potential contamination.

Step 6: Glue the top shelves

Shelves should be cemented along all seams, except along the axis into which the set screw will be inserted. The top shelf has shorter racks with end caps.

Step 7: Shelf creation

Cut the boards to the desired size. Mark where the holes will be and drill. Clean the board with sandpaper and varnish.

Step 8: Set screws

If in the future you are going to disassemble the shelf or use in another configuration, then it is better not to abuse the glue. Therefore, the author decided not to glue many joints, but instead add a set of screws. Add set screws along the vertical axis of the joints by drilling a hole through the fitting and pipe.

Step 9: PV paintingX

For painting PVC pipes, spray paint is required, which is intended to be connected to plastic. Apply three coats, with a break of 20 minutes. To completely fix the paint, it is best to wait 48-72 hours, otherwise the base layer may crack.

Step 10: Reassembly

Reassembly occurs between levels. It is not long, but it will take a little effort to put the parts in place with a hammer. Insert the set screw and slide the shelves between the layers so that the shelf is placed on the pipe fitting.

Step 11: That's all.

The latest photos show how the shelf looks in the interior.
