When designing this bed, the goal was pursued to get rid of legs sticking out in each corner and create the illusion of the bed soaring in the air. Thereby, it is forever forgotten, about how it hurts to hit the legs of this four-tailed "monster". In addition, there was a desire to retreat from the classics and make a bed with a modern design.
The bed was manufactured with a size of 2120mm * 1570mm * 350mm. Under the standard mattress. As a leg, a support is used in the center of the bed.
The support is pulled by cables, due to which it is possible to adjust the horizontal location of the bed with the inclined surface of the floor. But, even with such a small area of support, the bed turned out to be tilting, even if you sit on the edge of the bed.
For the manufacture of beds with their own hands, the following materials will be needed.
- board 2400 * 225 * 40mm - 8pcs- Furniture lamella
- Taldays - 9pcs
- Bolt (UCHO) - 8pcs
- Table
- M10x30mm bolts - 8pcs
- M10x130mm bolts - 4pcs
- Screws
- carbon black
- oil or varnish
Manufacturing process
The central support of the bed consists of six backups connected by hinges. And so that these backups are fixed motionless, they are fixed with the help of a cable and taught by talrepa.
Why is it necessary?
First of all, it is necessary, if there is a bias of the floor. And with the help of tension of cables, you can align the bed along the horizon. On the other hand, the complexity of the design gives the type of high technologicality and modernity. But if you are not interested in the manufacturability of the bed, and the floor you have smooth, then all the backups can be fixed with bolts and abandon the cables and tallpins.
All bed items can be cut out of 8 40mm thick boards., But to invest in such a number of material, use the cutting circuit. The board must be used dry so that in the future it does not lead.
And in order not to think over all the elements of the bed, I suggest download the drawings using which you will not be difficult to repeat the design.
According to drawings, proceed to the creation of boards.
Repeating details (backups) so that each time the drawing is not to transfer to the workpiece, it is advisable to cut one part. And then, using it as a milestone, lean it to the workpiece and outline the contours.
If there is a long cutter in stock, then you can immediately cut everything unnecessary by the mill.
When all the backups are cut out, it is necessary to fold them together and go through the surface with grinding to eliminate all irregularities. Especially these irregularities may occur if you solve the electric jigsaw board.
Cutter twigs all corners of parts. If there is no milling bag, then you can do the grinders.
In some details you need to make grooves. To facilitate the procedure for making grooves in bars, you can use a circular saw. To do this, it is necessary to limit the height of the circular saw and make several cuts in the bar, after which the chisel is knocked out everything too much.
So that the bed does not creak, do not use the screws to connect the parts, but use glue and furniture wanned.
After all the details are ready, to maintain a natural look, we process the surface with oil or we open lacquer. Naturally, in your desire, you can use paint.
As the hinges of the backups, the segments of the pipes with a diameter of 34mm will be used. The pipe is desirable to use a stainless thing to the years rust does not spoil the appearance of the bed.
Now it remains to collect all the details of the bed in one one.
To reliably fix the cable, use several clamps on each loop. It is better to be restrained than each time a bed to regulate the bed.
The ends of the cables, wrap the tape, or wear the thermal tube so that in the future when cleaning it is not damaged about sharp edges of the cable.
We set the level and proceed to adjust the bed.
With the help of tallyts, exhibit the surface of the bed into a horizontal position. I want to note that the adjustment is not so simple, and it is necessary to check the level of all the backups.
When the support is adjusted, you can install the frame of bed, back and lamella.
If desired, for a larger effect, you can install the LED tape under the bed, for the floor illumination, and to automate the turning on the power on, to equip the day-night sensor with a tensometric sensor. Thus, the backlight will be included only at night. A strain gauge sensor (weight sensor) will turn off the backlight when a person is on the bed and turn on when a person gets out of bed.
If there are no pets in the house, it is possible to install a motion sensor at all under the bed (as a rule, the motion sensors already contain a day-night sensor). And the backlight will be turned on only at night, and only when the movement near the bed appeared.
