Choosing a place for a gazebo

The ideal place of the gazebos for the cottage will be the shadow of the trees. The gazebo can be positioned near the trees - in this way you can relax in the gazebo for a whole day and do not worry about the sun. Also, if possible, the gazebo can be built near the reservoir. On any summer cottage, the hex gazebo will be highlighted.

Advantages of hex gazebo:

1. Takes little space.
2. Holds a sufficient number of people.
3. You can place several benches.
4. The gazebo is durable and stable.
5. It has a beautiful view.

Required Tools for Construction Arbor

So that labor costs were minimal, and the construction of a gazebo for giving with their own hands gave you pleasure, it is advisable to purchase all the necessary tools.

We will need:

• Hacksaw.
• Chainsaw.
• Nails.
• Plancock (desirable electric).
• Lobzik (also better electric).
• Circular machine.
• Hammer.
• Drill.
• Screwdriver.
• Device for leveling level.
• Plumbing (you can save and make yourself from the Kapron rope and weight).

Construction of a hex gazebo for giving with their own hands

The most acceptable and durable materials for the construction of the arbor - a tree ate or pine. For the price this building material is quite loyal.

Having a hexagon drawing in front of him, it will be easier for you to decide on its dimensions. Using tools - a circular machine, it is necessary to prepare the bars and boards of the specified size. So that they were smooth, they need to be treated with a reference.

We will proceed to the markup of the area for the hex gazebo. In order for the geometric figure - the hexagon was correct, you need to take wooden pegs and cutting of the rope and draw the circumference of the future gazebos in accordance with the dimensions specified in the drawing. Next, based on any point of the circle, you need to make notches that will be equal to the radius.

The next stage - you need to dig a hole for the foundation. The pit is digging at the intersection points of the lines. The depth of the pit must be at least half a meter. Fall asleep the resulting hole is best sand, carefully compact the sand (you can "hide" with your legs, under your own weight, the sand is well lost). Then sand needs to be water. The base of the arbor is best done reliable. For this, the blocks of concrete fit well.

Laying concrete blocks

So that our gazebo is durable, it is necessary to put concrete blocks (or bricks). To do this, in those places where the corners of the future gazebo are indicated, you need to drive six rods of fittings. The length of the reinforcement is not more than one and a half meters. Using a drill, you need to drill holes equal to the diameter of metal rods. After the holes are ready, you need to put a concrete block to fittings.

Take our pre-prepared wooden bars and in every drill hole. It needs to be put on the reinforcement on each other (the principle of "Well"). Next, we note the place of intersection of BRUSEV and cut. So that the bars sat firmly, you can make notches, connecting them on the principle "to the floor". Next, you need to collect wooden bars and consolidate them with nails. So that there are no gaps between the concrete base and wooden bars, it is necessary to put rubberoid or any waterproofing material.

Base

Estimated place for the future floor gazebos need to be placed in advance by polyethylene film. The film must be poured up with a thick layer of sand and put lags. Lags must be attached with bolts. So that the tree is not subjected to rotting, the lags need to be treated in advance by any protective agent (olifa, mastic). Any building material can be used as flooring for the floor. Depending on your budget, this can be like an ordinary planed board and plywood (choose moisture-proof), as well as wood-chip plates.

Build carcass

Install the bars that are located vertically. Previously need to drill holes for metal rods. After completion of the preparatory work, put the pillars to the reinforcement. So that everything is exactly and no distortion occurred, the level of poles (vertical) must be checked with a plumb. Preyatno perform the same operation with each wooden bar. We should have a ring from Bruusyev.

The crown must be done by the same principle, put it at the top and secure with bolts.

Install the hex roof of the arbor

To properly secure the top of the vertical rack, the rack is fixed with the bar and screaming them from the end. The angle should be resistant - 60 degrees. Next, fasten the design with the help of self-samples. The frame of the hexagon is ready.

The roof itself is best done separately. It is convenient to collect the roof on the ground, and then set the design to the top ring of our gazebo. If you still decide to make a roof directly in place, then you need to attach a couple of boards to the upper ring and set the support on them - a column. Then on the floor and it will be necessary to fix the guide bars.

When our roof is ready, it is desirable to sheathe. This can be done by any material for the trim. Wooden rails will look better.

You can cover the roof either tile or professional flooring or use another roofing material.

According to the drawings of the hexagon gazebo made by their own hands, the railing is also better to do. To do this, take the boards and granting the railing. Fack need to be removed. In the vertical post to install the railing, you need to cut the groove and adjust the railing under them. How to make this stage of work of the hexagonal arbor, you can look at the photo.

Vertical pillars if desired, you can enjoy ordinary clapboard or make a decorative wooden grille.

In order for the hexagon gazeb to serve you for many years, it must be processed. The tree can be covered with varnish or if you wish to paint in bright colors.

And in order for the arbor, the path was pleasant and comfortable, you can make a wooden track with your own hands and a small porch.

Let your ability to make beauty are proud of your friends and loved ones, and you can always share your acquired experience and tell everyone how to make a gazebo in the country.
