The jig for assembling furniture

Becoming the owner of a set of furniture is a happy owner of one-on-one with a lot of parts and fasteners, out of which it is necessary to lay down quite functional objects: cupboards, tables, shelves and other components of the suite of furniture.

There are two ways: call the master for the assembly of furniture, which in a few hours of professionally assemble and install in the right place all the furniture items.

And get this job a lot of money.However, this workman people try to solve the problem yourself assembly purchased furniture.

And there could be surprises.Firstly, for the assembly of furniture, you must have a set of tools.

Secondly, in the furniture can be openings that are not required, and not be holes that are necessary for assembly.

And, thirdly, drilling holes in thin panels made of particleboard also requires considerable skill and dexterity.

conductor for the assembly of furniture is designed to facilitate the individual assembly operations, especially drilling operations.

This jig can be not one, but several different individual assembly operations.

There are some conductors, industrial production, which are used in the assembly of furniture by professional artists.

However, there are a number of conductors, which can make your own hands, and use them to build their own furniture, as well as to assist with good neighbors.

When assembling furniture, there are two operations that can be combined with the help of a homemade jig.

Generally speaking, the conductor is a device that allows the same to produce some operations, such as drilling.

Given that the furniture wall is quite thin, poor drilling can damage the components and the deterioration of the appearance of new furniture.

So simple template for marking and drilling holes.The basis for the conductor will square piece of reinforcement, such as 10x10 mm.

hacksaw Cut the desired size bar and we clean it with a file and sandpaper.It is necessary to get the right box.

Next is counting centers for drilling hole patterns.

From the edge of the center is to defend at a distance of eight millimeters, this corresponds to half of the board thickness of the chipboard, the pitch between the centers of the holes should be 32 mm, which corresponds to the furniture standards.

centers on the planned drill holes with a diameter of 5 mm.

Then we make an emphasis furniture conductor of a metal plate to a thickness of 1 mm and a width of 25 mm.

plate bend at right angles, fixed in the clamp with the drilled piece fittings and drill holes for screw connection.

After threading connect two conductors together.

conductor for the assembly of furniture, in its simplest form, ready for use in the assembly of furniture.

With it you can easily drill holes in the ends of the CPD without any fear that the drill goes awry and leaves on the surface of the plate.

Such simple conductors considerably facilitate the assembly process and protect furniture from the possible violations of integrity.There are other types of jigs for installing fittings and other operations.
