Written tables for children in a wide range offer various furniture stores, but there are several arguments in favor of making it with your own hands. First, with the personnel of all works, the materials used are controlled, their safety for the child. Secondly, such work will save significant funds, as it will have to spend only the material itself. Thirdly, it creates furniture of any unique and original designs.

Variety of writing desks for children

Children's desks for the house are not a single model, but a lot of design solutions with their own characteristics. Ordinary classic tables with drawers and a worktop, or furniture in the form of toys and fairy-tale characters, which the kids love very much. There are several main criteria for distinguishing children's tables:

• In color. The modern market for making furniture offers a wide color gamut, which includes standard colors and refined colors. When choosing the basis of the design of the table, you should consider not only the type of material, but also its color. For kids, vibrant and interesting shades are optimally suitable, which will attract their attention to the workplace. For older children, it is better to choose monophonic and calm shades that will not distract from work.

• Tables vary in shape. Standard tabletop rectangular shape, round tables, corner tables, tables of original forms.
• The presence of drawers and bedside tables. For a schoolchild, such modifications are simply necessary, as they allow you to classify and spread the entire arsenal of educational supplies. Various compartments designed for specific things help with childhood to teach a child to order and accuracy.
• Working corner. Such furniture provides not only the table, but also a system of hinged boxes, bedside tables, retractable shelves, etc. Such furniture is designed as a single composition and helps to fill the room not only by the desktop, but also cabinets for others necessary in use.

• Folding tables. Very convenient for small rooms. In the free time, the child folds the table and gets big space for games. Modifications of folding tables are also very different, the most simple for children is the table with a retractable table top, which opens and closes on the principle of the box. But if the apartment is allowed, it is best to stop your choice on the stationary table model with the presence of various boxes and offices.

Make a children's table with a curly worktop

One of the very ergonomic models of stationary children's writing desks is a desktop table. Such furniture has a recess accurately in the middle or a little displaced to the side, it creates a real study for the child. The creation of such a table begins with a sketch and project. If you plan to place an additional shelf under the tabletop, then they should be the same form. To save costs, the lower shelf is made of cheaper materials, as it does not bear the load and its fortress is not so important. If the child is left-hand, then the tabletop wave is located on the right. At this stage, a detailed drawing is created with the dimensions of each element. Next go the following stages of work:

• After creating the drawing, the material is reproduced. This work is performed independently or order in special workshops cutting sheets on the declared sizes. For self-cutting, an electrolybiz is used, the worktop is dried with a thin saw or a jigsaw to avoid chipping on the edges.

• On the sawn material is treated and decorated edges. To begin with, the edges are carefully grinding, this stage of work is not required if the sheets were separated by a format-saw machine. If a children's written table is done with their own hands, then the edges will not be even further and will require additional processing.
• After grinding the edge, it is necessary to stick to the edge. At home, it is most often used paper products, as it is the most inexpensive material, besides, it is enough to simply mount it. The lack of this type of processing in its briefness. The paper edge or melamine tape is glued to the products using an old iron and a cut of dense tissue. On the iron, traces of the tape remain in the irony, therefore it is recommended to use such a device that is not expected to iron clothes. The fabric is used to fix the edge on the sheet, the tape is pressed to the edges of the product during operation. A wide ribbon is neatly cut and customized under size.
• For more reliable processing, PVC edge is used, however, the tape will need an industrial hairdryer and respiratory protection tools. In the process of thermal treatment, PVCs are distinguished toxic substances, therefore be sure to use the respirator and thoroughly air the room. The temperature of the hair dryer exhibit at least 500 ° C.
• After processing all edges, the assembly begins. For a start, the frame is assembled, the legs and lower shelf are bonded between them. Each detail make a hole of the desired depth, then confirmants and boards are screwed together into these holes. A worktop is installed on the frame, it is complemented by plastic corners to strengthen the structure.
• When the base is fully ready, the boxes are collecting. The bottom is made from the fiberboard, it will make it easier and reduces the whole design. All other parts make from chipboard. The guides are installed on the boxes, one of which is fixed in a niche, and another screwed to the side of the drawer. When choosing guides, you should consider the future load on the box. All mounting decorated with stickers in the tone of chipboard.

This design is easily upgraded as a children's writing desk for two. For this, the countertop is lengthened and there are two wave-like cuts in it. Also separated by the table by the partition from the bottom and, if desired, from above, to zonate the space. Table supports are upgraded into the niches, thus eliminated the rag of boxes. An additional superstructures with niches and drawers are installed on the table, if there is a need for them.

Make a baby table corner

Children's written corner table is another great solution for small square rooms. In the room unused, most often the corners remained, located at the junction of the wall, the table will not take much space, but at the same time it is equipped with a fairly simple and comfortable tabletop. The table is easily upgraded under the computer, it is enough to mount the retractable shelf for the keyboard.

Making an angular table is quite difficult, as it requires a clippage of the wrong shape details. In the absence of skills and tools, it is recommended to order cut in specialized stores. The algorithm is described below how angular children's writing desks are manufactured, the photo shows a detailed diagram with dimensions:

1. Fasten guides for retractable elements on side racks. All side details are fixed by ducts, the nests are fought with joinery glue, fasten the heating. The rear surface is fixed by self-draws.
2. Collective drawer is going. It is attached to the seasons, processing the nests with glue. Before connecting all parts, they are treated with edge.
3. Fasten guides on drawers. On the front side, a 40 mm guide is recorded, on the back - 16 mm.
4. With the reverse side of the countertops, there are places for fasteners, drilled by nest marks. Holes are made deep, but do not pass through.
5. The worktop turn over and fasten to it with screws of the couch and the rear wall. If you plan to do a computer table, then at this stage you should provide a cable hole. At the bottom of the couch fix decorative grounds.
6. At the end of all works, boxes and doors are mounted. The shelves are fixed with self-drawers, the angular superstructure is fixed with round lumps or chrome-plated racks. After that, set the superstar shelves, which will serve as a stand for the monitor.
7. If the table was made of MDF, then the last stage is primer and painting surfaces in any selected color. The chipboard does not require coloring, the table from such a material after the assembly is ready to use.
