Ikea type furniture
-
My wife got fed up with waiting for me to redo our living room and dragged me kicking and screaming (she did the kicking, I did the screaming )to the Ikea depot. We bought a sofa, two couches and a pine shelf unit in a white finish.
But when we looked for a coffee table and a unit for the TV and a couple of side units we couldn't find anything that went with the shelf unit. Seeing as we'd chucked out the old ones, I had no choice but to get down to designing and building these myself. I had to design them so that they looked as though they'd come straight out of the Ikea catalogue.
You can get 18 and 28 m"m sheets made of pine that are 250c"m by 80c"m and I designed all the pieces so that I could build the from those sheets much in the same way as you'd use plywood sheets. The only parts not made of these pine sheets are the legs which are 4cm by 4cm pine cut from a single 4.5cm thick plank of pine 3.4 meters long and 19c"m wide.
I used a bisquite joiner for all the joinery. You can see photos of them in the Woodworking sub-forum int the Special interest section.I'd very much like to have you comments.
These are the models:
