Actually, the appointment of all racks is one thing - to place the necessary items ordered, but accessible. So that I did not have to turn the bunch of trash in search of the desired thing.
In addition, a wooden rack is a pretty simple design that is easy to build with your own hands.
What can be wooden racks for home
- Stationary rack. These racks are the basis of racks and crossbreaks, and shelves laid on this basis. To increase the strength of such a structure, often the frame is attached to the wall. The stationary can be attributed to the Wooden Wooden Rack.
- Mobile. This type of structures involves the presence of wheels for free shifts of their location without mandatory discharge of content.
- Rotating. Very convenient to accommodate small things that are needed all the time.
- Half wood shelving. These facilities with stretch can be called racks, rather shelves. But their use is justified where all the outdoor space is occupied, and empty only under the ceiling. Scattered shelves racks can be placed in several parts of the room, where there is a free space.
What will be needed for the production of wooden shelving
- Billets from boards with a thickness of 15-25 mm, chipboard, plywood for shelves.
- Bruks from a tree with a thickness of 100 mm for vertical racks and horizontal crossing.
- Metal corners.
- Screws and screwdriver (or drill and drills).
- Pliers.
- Bolts and nuts.
- Paint or varnish.
- Fortress for wood.
- Putty knife.
- Brushes or roller.
- Sand paper or grinding machine.

How to make a wooden rack
- Decide which sizes and which mass there will be subjects for which the rack is made. This will depend on the height and width of the shelves.
- Rate the existing empty space, compulsory it with your needs. The highest ways usually make the lower branches, planning there to place the most overall and heavy items. For example, solving the task how to make a rack in the garage, it is necessary to provide a high lower shelf for storing canisters, tires and oil tanks.
- Make the necessary measurements with a roulette and pencil.
- Make a drawing indicating sizes. There is no need to be a great drawer, just portray an exemplary pattern.
- Cut the bars on parts of the required length (according to measurements) and polish.
- Pencil check the location of future shelves.
- In places marking to vertical racks, screw the metal corners with screws with screwdriver with a screwdriver.
- On the other hand attach to the corners of the cross bars, which will hold the shelves.
- Treat frame water-repellent composition, and prime with color.
- Install the frame in place.
- If necessary (if the rack is designed to hold the contents of a very massive), attach the vertical guides directly to the wall.
- Paint the billet shelves, let them dry.
- Place the shelves on the horizontal bars, screw them with self-draws.
What you should pay attention to when planning a production of wooden racks
- The width of the rack should be equal to the width of the empty space in the wall minus 5-10 cm, for ease of installation.
- Shelves do no longer than 1.5 m to avoid savings and deformations. The optimal size is 1 m.
- The depth of the shelves should not be greater than 0.5-0.6 m, otherwise it will be difficult to get the content from the bowels.
- The optimal height of the shelves is 0.25-0.6 m. The bottom shelf can be built with a height of 0.8-1 m, if you are thinking about to store large things on it.
- The installation of the shelving is more comfortable to produce in a horizontal plane, and then set up vertically.
This is, of course, the most primitive example of a wooden shelving, the price of which will be equal to the cost of consumables spent on its production. Such will be appropriate in the storage room, in the garage or basement. By the way, as an option for cramped conditions, you can make a wooden corner rack. In this case, two racks are joined at an angle of 45⁰, which should be reflected in the drawing plan. Accordingly, the configuration of angular blanks for shelves and the length of the crosslinor will differ from the standard option.
Development and creation of racks is an extensive space for the manifestation of fantasy and imagination. Wooden racks presented in the photo below can easily perform not only the task for placing objects, but also a decorative function.
The basis of the creation of a rack from a tree may lie any method of connecting the shelves among themselves. Whether it is fastening with metal corners, screws, bolts and nuts, special glue, and even ropes, the main thing is to remember, for what weight the design is calculated. As for the design and decoration, there is also a lot of options. The rack can be simply polished and opened with a mourn or varnish, you can paint. Painting, cracker, decoupage - all this can be appropriate. It is important that such a decor "fell out" from the overall picture.
Fantasize and dare! Maybe you will have something masterpiece?!
