Every owner dreams of creating beautiful garden near your house. At the same time, you want everything about it to be perfect. At first glance, it seems that this requires a huge amount of effort and spending a whole lot of money. But in practice everything is somewhat different. For example, a transforming bench, the drawings of which you can even make with your own hands, will decorate any garden. Moreover, this convenient solution, if you plan to have frequent get-togethers with friends.
The peculiarity of this device is that it can be used as a bench or, if necessary, as a tabletop with two benches. In addition, you can buy a ready-made model in a store or make it yourself. Usually, in order to create a high-quality transforming bench, they use wooden materials. Moreover, both natural wood and plywood or PVC can be used. Of course, the first option will be more expensive, but the manufactured device will last not 2-3 years, but 20-30 years. Before use, it is advisable to coat the bench with an antifungal solution and also paint it with varnish. This will be an excellent prevention of rot.
Before you start creating a bench, you need to make sure that all the tools are available. So, in order for the transforming bench to be of high quality and last for decades, it is recommended to purchase the following tools and materials:
In order to properly make a transforming bench with your own hands, it is better to draw up the drawings yourself. After all, it is very important that the image of the final product is not lost. When drawing up a drawing, it is recommended to pay attention to 3 factors:
First of all, you should make parts that will later be used as legs for the structure. For this purpose, it is necessary to cut 8 identical segments, the length of which will be 70-75 cm. It is advisable to make cuts at an angle of 10 degrees on both sides. This is necessary to provide balance when installing on a slope.
Next you need to make frames for two benches. They are made from To do this, you need to cut 4 pieces 40 cm long and 4 parts measuring 1.70 m. Several reinforcing elements should be made in the frame. Actually, this is where timber is needed. It is nailed at a distance of half a meter from each other. This way the transforming bench will be protected from lateral deformation. The legs should be attached to the seat with 2-3 bolts so that they are held securely. A rectangle should be made from the timber, which exactly matches the length of the benches in size. WITH inside it is attached additional elements rigidity. This will be the back (or tabletop).
Now all that remains is to combine the resulting elements into one common structure. This is not easy to do because you have to work with large parts. Therefore, it is recommended to do the work not independently, but together with an assistant. It is necessary to cut 2 beams half a meter long. They need to be placed between the bench and the shield. After securing them, 2 more bars should be cut. Now their size should be 110 cm. They are attached to another bench in the center to make it easier to join both elements. In this way, a transforming bench will be made with your own hands, the drawings of which can be seen in the article.
The interesting thing is that such a device can also be placed indoors. It follows that there are two ways to cover it: waterproof paint is recommended for the garden, and stain or varnish is recommended for the home. And if the second one can also be finished, the first one cannot be painted with varnish and stain.
Many people want something unusual to appear in their garden, for example a transforming bench. Making such a device with your own hands is not difficult. Moreover, there is a wide variety of its shapes and sizes. The main thing is to paint it at the end suitable means. If this is not done, the wood will begin to rot due to exposure to moisture. It is best to paint once every 1-2 years so that the bench is completely protected from bacteria. If desired, you can decorate the bench with wild stone, clay and other materials.
Anything done independently is always interesting and enjoyable. In addition, “homemade products” provide the opportunity for flights of fancy and the realization of the most daring ideas. There is especially a lot of room for creativity for those who have a summer cottage at their disposal.

There are many ways to do homemade design incredibly attractive and original: it all depends on desire and effort, and success will definitely come!
Experienced owners say that beech, ash, oak or birch wood would be suitable.
One of positive points, going in favor wooden furniture, this is what can really be done wooden chair DIY baby feeding bottle. Naturally, in the case of twins, you will have to do two stools at once. Note that usually homemade children's high chairs made of wood are different - classic folding, transformable and growing.
In this article, in the “for dummies” style, we will tell you how to make a high chair with your own hands using the example of a wooden transforming chair. We will show two working options for a do-it-yourself feeding table and chair with drawings and dimensions, and also give some considerations about them.
ATTENTION!!! The article turned out to be long, since we are writing not only for experienced craftsmen, but also for beginners, as well as people who rarely do anything with their own hands. If you don’t want to read everything, use the table of contents. Heading tooltips will help you understand what it's about and choose what you need.
If you want to make a high chair with your own hands, but not a transformer, or you know everything - how to do it and like brevity, it’s also not a problem. Over time, a link to a post will appear in this place, where information about homemade high chairs will be collected in one pile. In the meantime, look at the site map and section, there are articles there.
The content of the article:
One of the big advantages of children's wooden transformable feeding chairs is that the design of the chairs is extremely simple, so even a beginner can easily build them on their own. You can make such a high chair with your own hands either from scrap materials, or you can easily purchase the material at a low price.
In the article high chair For DIY feeding, we looked in detail at how to make a folding high chair. It turned out that it is done quite simply. But its relevance is very doubtful - wooden furniture is always bulky and heavy, and after two years such a chair will have to be disassembled for parts and made separately children's table and a chair.
But the transformable chair immediately “kills” two birds with one stone: it is both a chair and a table-desk. First, the chair is used for its intended purpose, together with a small table, and then, after 1.5 years, it is disassembled, and the child gets a separate desk and chair. Convenient and practical. Perhaps this is precisely what arouses constant interest in a wooden transformable high chair made by hand.
All that remains is to figure out how to make such a miracle of technology yourself. First, let's look at a video of one of the craftsmen.
Searching the Internet on the topic of a do-it-yourself high chair, it will become clear that there are two options for a transforming high chair.
The first option is more complex, but for some reason it is the one that is popular on the Internet. Most likely, once someone made a wooden transforming high chair for feeding with their own hands in exactly this way, and then articles on how to make it yourself miraculously and thoughtlessly multiplied. Because where to get it correct option unclear. We present here the most understandable (for the author) description and sane drawings.
The second version of a do-it-yourself feeding chair is simpler and more logical; it is the method used to make factory-made wooden transformers. And we will also present it here, with our own measurements.
If everything is clear with the material and you are only interested in drawings and dimensions for a do-it-yourself high chair, then immediately go below to the parts of how to make a do-it-yourself high chair - Option 1, and How to make a children's wooden high chair with your own hands - Option 2. A For now, since we decided to write a story in the “for dummies” style, let’s talk about the materials used.
To make a high chair with your own hands you will need wooden blocks. A board with a thickness equal to the thickness of the bar used can be added. Plywood or chipboard, self-tapping screws, glue, washable fabric upholstery and any soft filler. Well, also staples for a construction (furniture) stapler.
You can use any timber that is sold or available. It would be better if it were planed. So there is less fuss with him. Otherwise, you will have to plan it yourself and make it smooth. It is most convenient to take a timber size of 20x30 mm.
As a table top for a desk table and a small removable table for a high chair, laminated chipboard or thick plywood - from 10 to 15 mm thick - will be used.
The hard parts of the back and seat of a do-it-yourself feeding chair can be made from fiberboard or plywood. It is not necessary to use thick plywood; 5 to 10 mm thick is sufficient. In general, plywood will be stronger, but the staples of the stapler fit into the fiberboard easier.
Some parts are glued together. To do this, you can use wood glue or just PVA glue.
To do soft back and sitting on a high chair with your own hands, you will need external upholstery - durable, easy-to-clean fabric, such as raincoat fabric or bologna, or just oilcloth, and inside there is soft filling - foam rubber, batting, padding polyester or something else. See for yourself how much you need. The soft filler can be glued to the hard parts of the back and seat, or simply fastened with a construction stapler, or you can combine both options. It’s easier to immediately fasten the upholstery with a stapler. It will be more reliable this way. The size of the staple depends on the stapler and the selected thickness of upholstery.
It’s also a good idea to have a medium sandpaper to sand the parts and make them smooth.
In the first version of the do-it-yourself high chair, only 4 wood screws are used: to attach the table top to the desk table. Other wooden parts connected to each other with homemade dowels, also made of wood. You can use the remaining bars on the dowels.
In the second version of the do-it-yourself feeding chair, there are practically no dowels, but there are many self-tapping screws for fastening all the parts together. Factory transformers are made using Euro self-tapping screws, and a children's wooden transforming highchair for feeding with your own hands can be assembled using any kind. The main thing is to assemble it correctly. Dowels are used only if you decide to make rounded parts that are convenient to attach to the bars with their help.
In both versions wooden table and a do-it-yourself feeding chair have rounded elements, although you can do without them. These elements can be made either from a board with a thickness corresponding to the thickness of the bar used. If the beam is taken, as here, 20x30 mm, then we take a board 20 mm thick, but 30 mm is also possible, it depends on how you lay the bars, just kidding). If there is no board, then the same bars are perfect. You just need to glue them together.
Depending on how many and how you arrange the rounded elements for cutting on the board or glued bars, this is the length of them (boards, bars) you should take. 4 elements must be laid at once on glued bars or boards. Therefore, the length will be from 0.5 to 1 m, and maybe 2 m will not be enough.
I suggest you pay attention to the wood material of the high chair. Let us immediately note that it is best to make a children’s wooden feeding chair from linden with your own hands. However, like any other children's furniture for kids. Since they are often used in the manufacture of wooden furniture conifers trees may not be suitable here: pine produces resin, which is very toxic. It’s better not to risk children’s health. However, construction stores often stock pine, so we try to take it as dry as possible and free of resin. Believe me, it will be better for the child, and it will be easier for you to do it yourself.
For added shine, color and protection environment It is better to use ACRYLIC varnish or paint. It is not as harmful to the baby as the others. Why him? The answer is - what if the baby tries the table or high chair that you made yourself? You are the one responsible for the consequences. Although, if this does not bother you or there is no way to get them, then you can cover the feeding chair with your own hands with whatever you want.
To understand what a do-it-yourself high chair in the form of components Option 1, we provide drawings and dimensions.
To make parts of a wooden transformable baby high chair with your own hands, take a beam with a cross-section, for example, 20x30mm. We will make the following parts from it. We indicate the length and quantity.
Work begins with a chair. To do this, bars are cut to the required length according to the dimensions. Separately, you need to make rounded parts - they connect the legs and armrests at the front and back. Naturally, all sawn parts must be made smooth, lint-free and treated with special care with sandpaper - small children are always an increased risk of injury. Therefore, to the question of how to make a high chair with your own hands, we give a pretentious answer - we work conscientiously.
The curves for the wooden transformable high chair for feeding are cut out separately according to the drawing. For rounded parts there is one IMPORTANT point. If you glue the bars together and position the part with wood fibers differently than shown in the figure, then such a part, when sawing out or in further use, may in an unexpected way break. Therefore, the bars must be glued together with wood fibers parallel to each other. And you need to place the round part of the high chair with your own hands along these parallels. The same applies to the board - we place the part to be cut parallel to the wood fibers of the board.
To successfully glue the bars together we use wood glue or PVA. Additionally, the bars do not need to be jointed or leveled. You need to select fairly even planes for the bars, position them correctly and simply press them harder with clamps. They will dry out within a day for sure.
Then you can make rectangular dowels from scrap scraps for a high chair with your own hands. Dimensions – 8x20x50 mm. In general, the length of the dowel should be 4-5 mm less than the total depth of the groove of the two parts being fastened. The edges of the dowels can be slightly rounded.
On all parts, mark places for planting dowels. To do this, you need to mark the contours of the groove, for example, with a pencil. Rectangular grooves for dowels should be made approximately 30 mm deep. To do this, drill 4-5 holes with a drill with a diameter of 6 mm. Next, use a chisel to align the walls of the groove and fit it to your own, individual, homemade dowel. And if you have a router, then we make the grooves with a router, it’s easier.
When all the parts are ready, there are dowels and grooves for fastening, you can start assembling a wooden transformer highchair with your own hands.
We begin to assemble the wooden transformable high chair for feeding with our own hands from the sides. First one is done, then the second. Draw a line on the dowels in the middle of the length. Using a light hammer, install to the marked line. Then we take the part to be connected and insert the dowel into it. We connect the parts first dry, i.e. without glue. After all the sidewall parts are connected, we check for the presence of cracks. If everything is fine, then carefully separate the parts and glue the dowels, and then reassemble them as indicated above. Then you need to tighten the parts and let them dry for about 1 day. You can tighten them with clamps, or wrap them tightly with rope on both sides. But at the same time, make sure that nothing is skewed and there are no gaps. It is less reliable to tighten with a rope than with a clamp, but not everyone has clamps of this size.
While the sides of the transformable high chair for feeding the baby are drying, you can start making the seat and backrest with your own hands. They are cut from plywood or fiberboard, according to the drawing. If the plywood is not thick or fiberboard is used, then to add strength it is better to cut out 3 parts of the seat and back and glue them together. Coat with glue and clamp with clamps. It also dries within a day.
After the sides, seat and back are assembled and cut out, we assemble everything completely. On the seat and backrest with planned reverse side For a wooden transformable high chair for feeding a baby with your own hands, you can immediately attach the crossbar strips. To do this, use either dowels or, which will be even easier, small self-tapping screws. To make it work properly, the planks must be attached with 5 mm gaps on each side along the width of the seat and backrest. The back and seat can be connected to each other metal corner, or a metal strip bent along.
If we do it on dowels, then we drill holes in the seat for fastening to the crossbars of the chair. It is better to attach 4 pieces. standard cylindrical dowels. For the back of such dowels - 2 pieces. We connect the sidewalls with crossbars on which the seat will then rest. We do it without glue to check and see the positions of the seat and backrest. Also, without glue, we place the seat on the crossbars on the dowels. When bending and bending the backrest, mark the position of the bar for fixing the backrest, and then disassemble it. If you wish, you can cut off the side of the backrest strip according to the drawing. There is no desire - everything will be fine too.
For a wooden transformable children's high chair, we cover the seat and back with a soft filling with our own hands: glue it to a hard part or nail it with a stapler. Then, again using a stapler, we stretch the upholstery. It’s better not to save money and not to try to secure the upholstery and the soft part with the same bracket. Something might get warped and it won't be good.
Then we assemble all the parts on dowels coated with glue. We put it in place, check the corners. We attach the backrest bar to the backrest with 2 cylindrical dowels. We check the gaps and tighten them with clamps or rope. We are waiting for it to dry. That’s it, the chair from the wooden transformable high chair for feeding with your own hands is ready 
.
We repeat. If you don’t want to tinker with dowels, you can really connect all the parts using ordinary self-tapping screws. It may not be as durable, but it will be easier to assemble. It's up to the master to decide, of course. And the most convenient and durable way to fasten the curves is with dowels, and then carefully coat them with glue. After this, leave the finished sidewall to dry for a day.
The last stage: we cut out a small table for a high chair according to the size with our own hands. It can be left rectangular, or it can be rounded in the part closest to the child. This is not important. It's just a matter of aesthetics and fuss. This table is attached to the edges of the armrests. It is possible on cylindrical dowels, it is possible on self-tapping screws. And when the child grows up, it is simply removed and that’s it, it is no longer needed.
The table for the high chair is assembled with your own hands in the same way as the chair. First dry, then with glue. Either homemade dowels or self-tapping screws are used. Let's start with the sides. We attach the upper and lower strips to the legs, we get two rectangles. When the sides are assembled, they, like the chair, need to be pulled together and waited a day for them to dry.
Next, the transverse bars are attached - with their help, the sidewalls are connected. We attach the crossbars for the feeding table with our own hands according to the drawing. The general idea is that they should be at unequal distances from the edges of the sidewalls. On the lower ones, which will be closer to the edge, there are the legs of the high chair in the high chair position. And the top ones serve as spacers for the legs of the chair so that the chair stands firmly.
A table top cut from plywood or chipboard is attached to the top of the sidewalls and screwed with self-tapping screws. Everything comes together and is tightened as usual, we wait until it dries.
When the do-it-yourself feeding chair table is ready, let’s turn it into a transformable high chair for feeding a baby. To do this, let's connect them. The table is turned over, the tabletop is at the back, and the chair is placed on the transverse slats of the table.
Finally, when the chair and table are ready, we check for roughness one last time and sand it if we find any.
When a wooden high chair and a transformable table for feeding a child are made with your own hands, they should be completely varnished - use exclusively non-toxic varnishes, or paint them acrylic paint. You can first stain and dry it to give the desired color.
That's it, the first option is ready. The most adequate description was found on http://mebelsam.com; material for the note on the first option was taken from this site.
To understand what a do-it-yourself high chair will look like in the form of components of option 2, we provide drawings and dimensions.
To make parts of a wooden transformable baby high chair with your own hands, take a beam with a cross-section, for example, 20x30 mm. You will need to make the following parts from it: indicate the length and quantity.
If there are no round parts
If there are round parts
General
The previous part about a wooden transformable high chair for feeding a child with your own hands turned out to be too voluminous. Therefore, in order not to write a sheet again, let’s say that everything is done according to the drawing and dimensions similar to the first option.
Dowels are not used, with the exception of the rounded parts of the high chair. They are made in the same way as in option 1, only they have different sizes. Everything else is held together with self-tapping screws. You can use ordinary ones made of wood, or you can use euro ones. If you use euro-tapping screws, then mark the places where they should go. And in a place with a smaller diameter we drill a hole for them.
The bars are cut according to size. Carefully processed with sandpaper. The fundamental difference from the first version of the DIY high chair is the absence of special round parts. But since sharp corners– this is an increased danger for small child, then they need to be rounded. It is the upper parts of the chair legs that are slightly rounded on one side. And the two lower crossbars of the table—the legs on which it stands—are also rounded.
You can also insert several blocks in the sidewalls between the armrest and the bottom bar to which the seat is attached, rectangular or round, it doesn’t matter. They can be placed anywhere at any distance, most importantly in the seating area. This is to prevent the baby from crawling through the sidewall, and it’s also good for beauty.
One more touch. 
How to make a high chair with your own hands with a movable back? You can make the back of a DIY feeding chair take several positions. You'll have to tinker with this.
To do this, the rear legs and armrests are fastened together using a round part, as was the case in the first version. In this case, the size of the armrest and back leg will be different (see description of the dimensions of the chair). In the rounding you need to make a hole into which a screw will subsequently be inserted, with a handle - a fastener at the end. One side of the screw is attached to the back of the chair, the other goes along this hole. The handle screws onto the edge and secures it in the desired position. The back is fixed.
The hole can be made either with a router, or several small holes can be made with a drill and then finished with a chisel. The size of the hole depends on the screw used. The handle can be whatever you like. In the handle, carefully select a groove for the nut, which will actually be screwed onto the screw and secure the back of the chair. It is convenient to fasten the screw itself not in the back of the chair, but in the upper crossbar.
Let us note once again that it is more convenient and better to fasten the curves of a high chair with your own hands using glued dowels. Using self-tapping screws will be awkward and clumsy.
This particular chair option is very comfortable for a baby, but it will take some effort to make it. If there is no desire, then it is realistic to do without a movable back, then there is no point in making a separate rounding. Just tilt the back as comfortable for you and your baby. We mark the place where the upper transverse bar touches the folded back and side panels. Let's drill a hole there. We fasten the side panel and back with a self-tapping screw. So on each side.
When the sidewalls for a baby high chair are assembled with your own hands, two transverse fastening bars for the seat and one on a movable cylindrical dowel for fastening the backrest are screwed to the lower bars of the sidewall. A movable dowel means that one of the grooves is several (mm) larger than the diameter of the dowel.
The back and seat are done in the same way as in the first option. Only the sizes here are slightly different - the back is longer. It's more convenient for the baby. It is also not necessary to fasten the seat and back together; it is enough to attach them to the transverse slats, and subsequently make them soft and upholstered, for example, with oilcloth. Before upholstery we sand and paint as usual.
That’s it, the do-it-yourself wooden transformable baby high chair is ready.
The table for the high chair is assembled with your own hands in the same way as in the first option. First the sides. When the sidewalls are assembled, they are fastened together by transverse strips located at the bottom - they also serve as stands on which the chair stands in assembled form. This is important because the high chair is installed on them, and this plays a role in its secure installation.
This is different from the previous option - there is no additional crossbar in the middle at the bottom of the table, which makes the table not closed, and it is more convenient for an older child to sit at it. In this case, two crossbars go only from below, where the tabletop is attached - there is only one crossbar. When everything is assembled, all that remains is to screw the tabletop.
There is one point here. 
How to make a table top for a transformable high chair with your own hands? The figure shows the diagram and dimensions of the version with grooves. For simplicity, you can simply place the tabletop of the feeding table with your own hands on the bars, as in the first option, or you can, as they do in the factory, sandwich it between the bars. The first option is simpler, but the screws will not be visible suitable place. The second one will require more fuss, but it will be more beautiful. To clamp between the bars, you need to make grooves in them. This can be done without any problems with a router or just a chisel, but it takes longer. Accordingly, the dimensions of the tabletop will be different. There is a plan to make the groove the thickness of the table top and a depth of 5 mm.
For greater stability of the high chair standing on the table, in the assembled form of a wooden transformable baby high chair with your own hands, you can additionally make four small blocks - two on each side. They are located under the countertop; it is better to install them “after the fact”. Those. When the table and chair are ready, we place the chair on top of the table, as it should be in the end. We mark on the inside on the sides of the table, where the legs of the chair closest to the tabletop go. Along the sides, parallel to the markings, we attach these blocks to the sides of the table, one on each side. As a result, it should turn out so that the legs of the chair closest to the table top pass between these bars, and they, in turn, prevent the chair from moving in different sides. This gives the chair additional stability.
The DIY feeding table is ready.
As usual, summing up the results, we talk about what is easier - to make a high chair with your own hands, or to buy it? The answer is clear - buy. Moreover, wooden transformers are very common today and are inexpensive. But there are people who want to make their own efforts and imagination, and maybe someone hasn’t sorted out the rubble of their building materials. Then let's go - creativity has been valued at all times.
The first option is, of course, the most common on the Internet, but it is not the simplest. There you have to tinker with dowels, make grooves, glue parts together. Great if there is a special large clamp, since ordinary rope can warp the part. And if you don’t compress the details completely, then maybe nothing will work out at all. In short, a lot of fuss. In addition, over time, such a product will definitely dry out, remember the old swaying chairs. And your child will definitely rock the ready-made do-it-yourself high chair you made.
The second option is not common on the Internet. But this DIY high chair looks like a factory transformable high chair. Assembled with self-tapping screws. The main thing is to ensure that when assembling the mating parts of the parts are at 90 degrees to each other and are not warped. Little fuss. Only if you want to make a movable back with a rounded element, then you will have to work hard.

It’s good if there is a drawing or photograph of the product that you can refer to in order to clearly see the parts and location of the parts. As a basis, you can take a model that is made according to the principle: a longer front frame will simultaneously serve as the back and front legs of the chair, and a shorter frame will become the rear legs and support for the back, the seat position is fixed by a crossbar mounted on the rear frame. The product is available in medium standard sizes.
