Therefore okosyachku (obsadu) is required to make to prevent deformation of the plastic constructions for mounting technology.

Okosyachka is a special design that will take care of all the load bearing walls.

Thanks okosyachke, new windows will not warp or become deformed in the process of shrinkage of the wooden frame.

Okosyachku usually made of timber 100x150 mm.

for manufacturing carriages in the middle of a bar with a chisel, an ax and a hand-held circular saws choose a groove width of 50 mm, and with one end cut out the size of the spike 50h50h25 mm.

slots do so: circular saw saw through longitudinal cuts, which are then selected with an ax, and if necessary, modify a chisel.

Then, using chain saws to start carving ridges at the ends of the framework.Combs - it studs 50x50 mm.Marking crests should be carried out strictly according to the level.

The next phase - installation of the central riser and the formation of the opening between the risers.
