Folding wooden table for the kitchen. More about what kinds of tables are

Before you begin work, there will be no information on the varieties of folding tables for the kitchen. All of them are different, differ not only in shape and size, but also by functionality, as well as manufacturing materials.

Now details about all the nuances:

1. Material for the manufacture of the table is chosen taking into account all the requirements. If the table is needed for homemade to install in the kitchen or on the loggia, then the easiest way to make such compact wood furniture. But if the frequent dressage is planned to nature or the table is useful for the cottage, then it is best to make a lid from a more durable and durable material. For example, from aluminum or plastic (plastic - to cover the table top).
2. As for the tables made of wood: the material is durable, non-toxic, practical and looks like this table beautifully. Suitable for any interior. Naturally, the tree can not cost a penny, so the wooden table will be slightly expensive at cost than made of plastic or aluminum. It can also be said that it is difficult to work with a tree, not only time, but also certain skills, as well as special tools.
3. For the manufacture of a wooden table to the kitchen with their own hands, pine, oak or nut is suitable.
4. Tree - material, though durable, but very capricious. Therefore, from time to time it will have to polish the worktop, as well as to cover varnish.
5. As an alternative to wood - the manufacture of a table of a decorative plate or pressed sawdust (these are chipboard and Fiberboard plates). If you do everything yourself, then the slab end should be placed with a special film so that moisture does not fall inside. It is possible to cover with silicone, and the top of the tabletops is desirable to additionally protect the plastic panel.
6. The legs of the homemade table can be made of both wood and from another material (steel, aluminum). A good option is to make legs made of wood, shape and size - can be different and depend on the size of the table.
7. For the stability of the design, the legs can be placed in parallel or crosswise. The first option is the standard one, the second option is more reliable in terms of stability, just sit at such a table, freely peeling legs, it will be inconvenient.
8. The shape of the table or countertops can be standard rectangular, in the form of a square, round or oval. The most popular option is the manufacture of tables with a tabletop of a rectangular or square shape.

Plus - simplicity of manufacture, minuses are more because if you deploy such a table, then the person who will get a place in the middle will feel uncomfortable because of the fact that there are no place for my feet, they rest in the feet of the table. In addition, if you have to flatten the table, it needs to be constantly deployed and moving. As for aesthetics, the table looks boring, this option is considered the most common and budget.
2. The sliding structure is a fixed frame with firmly screwed legs. The legs remain motionless, and the upper part, that is, the countertop, is modified. It can be shifted to the side or disclose completely, but for this you need to push both halves, and insert an additional worktop in the resulting space. Such folding furniture is more suitable for spacious premises.
3. And one more variant of the mechanism with multiple layout options, depending on the destination: the worktop can be pushed to insert another segment, folded in half, open only one half, turn perpendicular to supplement the second half of the table top.

Many owners round tables are not satisfied. The reason is known, because everyone is used to the furniture of standard forms and sizes. But it is possible to break the stereotypes of the pasties and turn your own even a small kitchen into a cozy and beautiful place to prepare and eating.

Pluses of round tables:

• there are no sharp corners, which is very important for families where small children will be grown;
• the diameter of the smallest table for the kitchen is only 1 m, and holds up to 6 people at a table, and all those present at the table will see each other;

You can solve this problem like this: you need to paint the wooden table into light tones, then it will visually seem less. Plus, legs should be elegant, and the table top is thin.
