For many years, in our garden plot, as a temporary shelter for the summer, we built a wooden frame and stretched a canvas awning over it. But each time it ended with the fact that by the end of the season it turned out to be with holes, or even just spread. When we got tired of it, I decided to build a more solid gazebo, the main material of which was to be wood. It was conceived small - only 3,2x3 m in size.

First of all, of course, I marked out on the ground places for nine columns of the foundation. For them, I dug small holes measuring 0,5x05 m and also 0,5 m deep. Then I covered them with sand and compacted them well. On top I laid concrete tiles measuring 40x40x4 cm. On them - a row of brickwork and concrete blocks. Everything, of course, leveled out.

Initially, there were doubts about the "stability" of such a simple foundation. However, almost four years have passed - and nothing has squinted.

I made the lower harness of the gazebo from a beam measuring 150x100 mm, placing it on the foundation blocks on the edge - the narrower side. I connected the bars with metal corners measuring 100x100 mm.

The lags under the floor (100x50 mm) were "sunk" by 30 mm - to the thickness of the selected floorboard, connecting with the strapping also with corners.

Racks (beam 100x100 mm) picked up a height of 2,5 m. I thought that they were too high, but later it turned out that the arbor stretched upwards turned out to be much more beautiful and solid than the "short ones".

The lower trim of the bars 150x100 mm and the floor logs of the bars 100x50 mm (fastened with metal corners)

Cutting (1) and connecting (2) with self-tapping screws the corner posts and the upper trim Attaching the rafters to the upper trim with double angles (3) Fastening the lower trim with metal corners (4) Fastening the jibs with screws to the uprights (5) and the lower trim (6)

At the top of the middle racks, I sawed out a groove for connecting the bars (100x50 mm) of the upper trim "half-tree", corner - "half-tree" and in a "straight joint". I attached the racks to the lower harness with corners, and with bars to the upper harness with 6x100 mm screws.

In addition, to strengthen the racks, I installed jibs (50x50 mm) on three sides to a height of 1,0 m, attaching them with screws to the lower trim bar. I additionally connected the racks with the same bars and to the same height, connecting them to the top of the jibs. There was quite sufficient rigidity of the whole structure.

Then he laid the floor from a grooved board 30 mm thick, strengthened it with black screws 70 mm long obliquely into the ridge. Outside, to a height of 1,0 m, he upholstered the gazebo on three sides with clapboard, attaching it to the racks.

Gazebo under the tent
Plan of the lower trim and floor log: 1 - lower trim (beam 150x100, 4 pcs.); 2 - transverse log (beam 100x50, 5 pieces); 3 - longitudinal lag (beam 100x50)

Gazebo under the tent
Frame (view from the main facade): 1 - rack (beam 100x100, 8 pcs.); 2 - railing (beam 50x50); 3 - lower harness; 4 - top trim (beam 100x50,4 pieces); 5-roof rafters (beam 100x50, 8 pcs.)

When the lower part was finished, perhaps the most difficult part began - the installation of rafters. They went to bars measuring 100x50 mm.

First, laying two of them on the floor at an angle of 20° (this is how I planned to bring the roof out) to each other, connected the tops of the "half-tree" and fastened them with 6x100 mm screws. Provided for overhangs of 400 mm. Then, connecting with temporary rails, he hoisted it with the help of two friends (in six hands) on the upper harness across the structure. Here, at the attachment point with it, I cut out a groove and fastened it with double metal corners on the screws. Further it was easier: I put the longitudinal rafters at close range with the transverse ones with trimming at the meeting angle, and then also the corner ones; connected everything again with corners. Eight rafters converged at the top of the gazebo into one knot. Connecting them to the upper trim - corner cutting under the racks.

He laid the roof crate with clapboard, face down, and then covered it with soft tiles.

Laths measuring 30x18 mm went to the crate of the "walls", reinforced them with an overlap. For decoration at the top, the facade was covered with a furniture board 18 mm thick, having previously cut out arcs with a jigsaw.

The last - put balusters on the sides of the entrance.

I must say that all the racks, rafters, beams, jibs, railings were preliminarily planed and polished before installation. Then he covered in two layers with Tikkurila Valti Color paint, treated the floor with oil paint.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>
