Wooden fence with his hands

beam, boards and screws.What can be drawn from such a modest set of materials?Build a fence!Wooden fences unfairly overshadowed.And absolutely nothing!Of course, in terms of stability and reliability of the fence boards essentially loses its brick and concrete counterparts, but the erection of a wooden fence spend a minimum of time, effort and money.

Thus with carrying out all necessary activities can be managed independently.With a little imagination and do everything according to the instructions, you will create a truly original and interesting design.

From which to build a fence?

Before the construction of the fence, to pay due attention to the choice of starting material.For the arrangement of the hedge only use high-quality solid wood.Perfect oak, aspen, ash, larch, alder, mulberry.

Of all these options the most interesting is the Siberian larch.Built from her fence will serve as long as possible.If one of the main enemies of the majority of wood is moisture, the larch from contact with water becomes only stronger.

use pine limit except that arrangement of the intake shield in case of breakage or wear a fencing material can be replaced without any financial cost and effort.

Important!And in no case do we use for the construction of the fence birch tree - it is extremely unstable and short-lived.

also important to choose a high-quality material for the manufacture of bearings.With wooden spans best will combine the wooden poles.It is possible to dig in them in the ground and fixed to a special metal stand (consoles), concreted in recesses previously created.

Important!To extend the life of the wood it is necessary to pre-impregnate antiseptic.It will reduce the intensity of the damaging effects of moisture, air, mold, and other harmful microorganisms in the building material.

recommended to treat a special dye, for example, the Swedish paint to secure the wood effect.It will give the material a very beautiful shade.If desired, the top of the Swedish paint dry can cause the dye of a different color.

To prepare the Swedish paint we need:

• bluestone - 250 g;
• salt - 250 g;
• iron ocher - 250 g;
• linseed oil - 230 ml;
• flour - 570 g;
• water - about 4.5 liters.

Follow the proportions, you can prepare any necessary amount of dye.

paint quite economical.To cover 1 m2 of surface spent about 200-250 ml of dye.The above recipe allows you to prepare the paint golden brown.If you want a different color, replace minium peroxide of manganese, in ocher or other component to your liking.

Swedish paint is prepared in the following order:

• cooked paste.For its preparation stir in flour 3 liters of water;
• finished paste is passed through a sieve - this allows you to remove lumps from the mixture;
• strained paste again put on fire.The mixture is added to the salt and copper sulphate.Constantly stir the mixture, achieving complete dissolution of vitriol;
• continuing to stir the paste, add to it drying oil, then pour some water (usually about 1.5 L) to obtain a homogeneous liquid formulation.

Ready paint is put on a double layer of wood.

Walkthrough for the construction of a wooden fence

proceed to build our fences.

first step. Take a few wooden stakes about 600 mm long and sharpen the lower edge of each of them.

second step. Trying to drive the pegs with a two-meter increments around the perimeter of the fence at the installation site.

third step. looped a rope pegs hammered, quite pulling it between the sticks.

fourth step. Determine the desired height of the fence.At this moment the focus on their preferences and the terrain.The average height of the wooden fences kept within the 150-250 cm.

fifth step. Cut or order the desired length of the board.In this example, we will strengthen the board vertically.you can perform a horizontal trim if desired - procedures will remain roughly the same.

sixth step. sand cleanly boards, impregnate them with an antiseptic, and we put a double layer Swedish paint after it dries (can use other means at its sole discretion).

If desired, you can buy ready-made boards, but they are much more expensive than the raw material.Do as you prefer.

seventh step. take out the pegs hammered and drilled holes are left over from a depth of 0.5 m Optimum -.. 60-80 cm in the rest of the future guided by the size of the fence and the weight of the structure.

eighth step. put in the deepening of pre-impregnated with antiseptic wooden props, carefully aligning them vertically.With the function of supporting pillars wonderful wooden handle bar section 7.5 x 7.5 cm or 10 x 10 cm. For small and light poles fences can be used cross-section 5 x 5 cm. Depth member of the timber better pre prosmolit to wood is not rotted.

ninth step. Fill the hole with concrete.If the fence is being built compact, we can restrict backfilling pits with soil compacted thoroughly.

tenth step. Drives in the upper end of each column of the nail and contract all the support rope on the perimeter structure.In the future we will be able to focus on that rope and do trim a fence most smoothly and efficiently.

eleventh step.Getting fixed to the horizontal supports prozhiliny.For this purpose, we use board 100 mm wide and 25 mm thick.Prozhiliny fix with the same pitch (about 25-30 cm), departing the same distance below the ground.

for fixing boards using screws or nails long enough to mount a fully passed through prozhiliny and delivered from the back side of the support column by 20-30 mm.The protruding portion of each screw or nail carefully and thoroughly Bends.

twelfth step. with screws to attach prozhiliny planking.If desired, instead of the boards can use timber - will fence in a rustic style.Colorize the logs, you will create an original composition, which analogues are unlikely to see somebody from neighbors.

If you want to get a "dull" the fence, nailed planks close to each other.You may want to leave between the elements of the fence 10-50-mm intervals - as you wish.

During mounting boards are guided by the top cord taut.If necessary, saw off the excess length of the shell parts, to get a nice and smooth fence.

Finally, we will only cover the fence paint the desired color.If you are satisfied with the Swedish paint shade, no additional painting is not necessary to carry out.

Non-standard methods of fastening planks

Simple vertical mounting boards you seems too primitive and boring?No problem, there are many more interesting solutions!

For example, you can build a fence on the principle of the fence.Boards are fixed in a bent condition.Trying to straighten up, they will be enough to adhere to the supporting pillars.

Another great option - filling the space between the pillars with wooden siding.fasten paneling boards, starting from the bottom, maintaining a 25 mm overlap.

not less original look fence, made in the form of blinds.Stacked planks sloping down towards the street, you'll not view the fence, resistant to wind loads.

boards can also be pinned to the end.To fulfill the highest quality skin, do pre-layout on each rack.

In the case of installation of metal poles they can hide, sheathing on both sides of the rack.Top metal supports close the wooden plugs.

can do more original fence and wooden support columns, if desired.Making cuts in bearings angled-grooves and then insert them into the ends of the slats.Additionally, each bar fasten with screws.To hide places close fastening screws wooden plates.The upper part of the towers crowned caps.

To make it look more original fencing and modern, we can fill the board with a small gap (15 mm).In this case, the narrower will be the board (of course within reasonable limits), the more interesting it will fence design.

can also use the boards of different widths.If you choose this method, be sure to follow skin to drawing on adjacent sections match.

design variants wooden fence very much.Choose vending and start the construction of the fence.With all the necessary knowledge you already possess.

Successful work!
