Benches for the garden © JAHRESZEITEN VERLAG. The garden bench, made by own hands, represents a wooden rack construction of "sidushki" and two variants of "stone" supports. The first type of support - a kind of metal cells filled with stone. The second is the beds of molded colored concrete. We will also talk about how to make not only a wooden bench, but also a serving wooden tray.Benches for the garden with their own handsLauchka on florists:
Bench on gabions:
Depending on the size andDepending on the shape of the stone chosen, the appearance of the supports (and the entire structure of the bench) will change greatly. These can be either calibrated cubes of black granite or its concrete imitation measuring about 10x10 cm, large broken pieces of irregularly shaped gray stone, or maybe even simple sea stone, the shape of which has been worn away by water. Gabion* support First, metal cages are assembled from a grid. To do this, their sides are connected with strong wire, and the ribs are additionally reinforced with another wire, spirally twisted. Then the cages are immediately installed in the place chosen for the future bench. At the next stage, they are filled with rough stone. And finally, they are also covered with a grid on top, and the upper ribs are reinforced with spiral wire. Such supports have one drawback: you can’t put anything level on unprocessed stones. To solve this problem, you can make a convenient serving tray. * Gabion - (French gabion) - a metal mesh box filled with crushed stone; used in regulatory and coastal protection structures.
