Using the example of manufacturing this fence, changing the shape and length of the upper cut of a wooden blank, you can get the look of a neat fence, or a cascading ladder, fantasize, and admire your works in the future.
The necessary tools and material for the manufacture of flower beds
We need the following tool:
- Screwdriver
- Electric fretsaw
- Roulette
- Stapler construction and staples
- Screwdriver
- Galvanized screws
We need the following materials:
- perforated metal or plain tape
- a small piece of pvc tape, or any other waterproofing material
- board 15-20 mm thick and 100-150 mm wide
- wood antiseptic or paint
Let's start making a fence for a flowerbed, from wood blanks, it is best to use dried wood, it absorbs antiseptic well and is easily processed.
The shape of the blanks can be any; such a shape is chosen in the photo in order to save material.
One workpiece goes into another, while saving time on cutting blanks.
Mark up the pencil on the blank board. The length of the workpiece can be any. It all depends on what kind of plants a flowerbed is made of.
In this case, the length of the workpieces is 20 cm.
We saw the workpiece using jigsaw.
For convenience and speed saw, use a jig saw (For black sawing wood with a large tooth)
On a bed in diameter of about 1 meter, approximately 34 blanks are required with a width of 10 cm each.
With the length of the workpiece is 20 cm. You need 6 meters and 80 cm of the board.
When all the workpieces are sawn out, we start processing them with a special wood preservative, this will give them a beautiful look and help the wooden structure to remain in the ground longer.
After processing, the workpiece must be dried, for this they need to be positioned so that they are better ventilated
The next stage is the fastening of wooden blanks on the inside with a metal tape.
The tape can be used as simple and perforated, but always galvanized.
Simple tape is cheaper, perforated is more expensive, but it is more convenient to work with it, you do not need to punch holes for screws.
We spread the blanks in one continuous row and fasten the tape to each blank with self-tapping screws with the help of a screwdriver; we place the tape in two rows, top and bottom.
After that, it is desirable to nail a strip of roofing material or other insulating material onto the inside of the fence with a stapler, this insulation will protect the inside of the flower bed from dampness and extend the life of your flower garden.
Everything! it remains to connect the fence in a circle, then a flower bed can be installed in the garden and filled with soil for your flowers.
