Preparation of parts of the structure

All parts of the Hamac chair are created separately, and then they are already compiled in the whole design. The course of work:

1. A three -meter jeans fabric must be cut into two equal parts of one and a half meters each. Curtain each part four times and apply an arc with a pencil. The arc is the fourth part of the circle, the diameter is 65 cm. Cut the fabric according to the drawing and expand. As a result, two equal circles should be obtained.
2. On each circle, move away from the edges of 5 cm and draw another circle inside the large.
3. On one circle, mark the slots through which the belts will be attached. Fold the circle four times, the bends will become the axis, according to these axes, straps will be at the 45-radio angle. To note their location, it is necessary to turn the circle one more time in half. The mark that turned out to be connected to the center point in the circle in a straight line, in this place there will be a slot. Similar actions must be carried out on the upper section of the circle. To mark the two lower parts, it is necessary to determine the length between the axes and divide it into three different parts.
4. Expand the two circles on the table and connect them with the facial parts, the circle on which the marking should be upstairs. Fasten the circle with a pin and cut the slots along the planned dashes. Do the same on the second round.
5. You should get on the fabric like petals, they need to be unscrewed so that the wrong side is from above. And sheathe them with a braid, if there is no it, then you can replace the trouser braid with an understudy, and then cut the canvas. Having retreated from the edges by 3 mm, to remove the slots.
6. Retreating from the edges by 4 cm, sew both blanks for the cover. At the same time, see that a gymnastic circle that will serve as a frame can enter the circle. After that, turn the cover on the front side and reward with an iron.
7. Now the turn has come to process the hoop, it must be well sheathed with a thick synthetic winterizer. After that, put the hoop in the workpiece, flatten the entire structure and, retreating from the edges by 6 cm, sweep two parts of the cover.
8. Sew a section of the workpiece through which the hoop was placed, if somewhere the filler came out, you need to carefully cut it.
9. Strengthen the slots for reliability with a manual stitch, and fasten the entire cover according to the principle of a cotton mattress.

Gamak assembly

1. Before starting the assembly, it is necessary to cut the belt that will last slings. The segments should turn out to be 2 meters long. The end of the belt tape must be treated with fire.
2. Using the ends of the tape, grab the hoop. Strengthen the capture place with metal clamps.
3. Put into buckles the ends of the slings at the opposite ends, before that, pass them into the ring. They will make it possible to choose the necessary height of the hammock, a slope.
4. If you are planning to use a hammock with such a chair as a cradle, then you will need to take a smaller circle diameter.
5. Hang a hammock chair for a favorite place, it is better to do it in a shaded place in the garden. Make such an angle of inclination so that it is convenient to relax.

Wicker Hamac chair

The Hamac chair, created from wicker ropes, has some kind of charm. Even in the photo they look charming, then to talk about what they saw with their own eyes. You can create it yourself, for this you need to have at least basic skills in macram.
What will be required to create a wicker hammock chair:

• hoop - 1.10 m, for the back;
• hoop - 0.7 m for the seat;
• cord with a polypropylene core;
• cord connecting the rings - 2 pcs;
• slings - 12 m;
• wood rods - 2 pcs;
• rubber gloves for work;
• scissors;
• roulette.

To weave a gamak-clerk with your own hands, you need to perform a number of such works:

1. You need to do two hoops. Bracing them with a cord so that the metal is not visible. About 40 m cord is spent on a meter of metal hoop. The turns must be done tight and for better quality, after 20 turns, you need to strengthen the place with the winding, the extreme loops while pulling it off as much as possible. When wrapping a hoop, you need to make sure that the cord lay down smoothly.
2. Now the turn has come to do sitting. To do this, on top of the winding you need to weave an ordinary grid, attach it to a double loop to the hoop. If you have been engaged in macrame for a long time, and you can weave intricate patterns, you can choose any of them. If you are in this matter is a completely newcomer, then try the simplest pattern called “chess”. Those ends of the nodes that remain to hang from the seats do not need to be cut, they will then be used in the design of fringe. It is also worth considering this moment: the faster you will weave your pattern and pull the cord, the, in the end, the seat will be firmly released.                                                                                                                                                                                                                 
3. Now the turn has come to connect the hoops in one structure. The front part, where a person sits down, both hoops are thoroughly wrapped in a lace.
4. Make tapes on the four ends of the bar and place them from the side of the back. Thus, the hoop will be well fixed, and the chair will have the right back tilt.                                                                                                                                                                     
5. Now it is necessary to start braiding the back. And again, in the presence of macrama skills, choose an intricate pattern, it will depend on it what appearance will have a chair. If you are not particularly versed in the wisdom of this craft, then use this simple method: attach the lace to the top of the circle and moving down, braid the back. When you reach the bottom, tie all the cords to the bottom of the back. And end to braid the chair, making a fringe.
6. Attach to the place of the rafters, and place the Hamac chair in place.
