Beautiful folding round wooden table for the kitchen-dining room

Tiny Soviet-style kitchens are not able to accommodate the furniture and household appliances needed in a given room. Putting an ordinary kitchen table is already a problem; it will clutter up the entire space there. The only way to somehow solve this problem is to use instead of the usual extendable table.

Extendable dining table - the secret of successful hospitality

Usually furniture is bought in a store, but our people have long found another way out of the situation - to make it themselves. Indeed, spending about twenty thousand rubles for, in general, a simple thing is somehow stupid if you can do it yourself.

Dining furniture for the kitchen, made by yourself

Wooden oval extendable table with a set of chairs

The desire to make an extendable table gives rise to many problems, and the first of them prompts the master to decide what kind of table he needs? If we do not take into account very exotic models, then all tables known to us are divided into two types: round and rectangular.

Rectangular folding table for permanent use and for entertaining guests

Folding round table made of natural wood after unfolding it becomes oval in shape and can accommodate more people

A round, or rather an extendable oval table is a reality Everyday life modern people, making this oval is no more difficult than a rectangle.

It’s another matter when you set yourself the task of making an extendable table with the correct round shape, including in the extended state. It is difficult to assemble such a piece of furniture, the number of its constituent parts is too large and this will require solving a number of engineering issues or using other people’s solutions, which will not lead to a significant simplification of the work ahead. For a practical person, such super-tasks are not typical; he follows the path of least resistance.

Round extendable table, which, if necessary, doubles the tabletop area and remains round in shape

The path of least resistance, in this case, is the manufacture of a rectangular or oval (in the shape of an irregular circle) sliding table. Round table will take up too much precious space in the room, so most craftsmen prefer a rectangle, and suitable materials It's easier to find for him.

Next you need to decide on the material. Due to the high cost and complexity of processing solid wood you will have to abandon the oak tabletop and legs. We will make the tabletop from laminated chipboard, and metal legs can be purchased at the store. Laminate for a tabletop is perfect because it looks stylish and beautiful, and the laminated surface of the table repels moisture.

Waterproof laminate suitable for countertops

Furniture metal legs are ideal for the manufactured table

In addition to pieces of laminate and metal legs, you will need many other parts, including:

• four aluminum corners, each at least fifty centimeters long;
• a pair of telescopic guides, the length of which coincides with the corners;
• dowels with a diameter of 8 mm and a length of 40 mm;
• self-tapping screws with a diameter of 4 mm and a length of 20 mm,
• bolts, nuts, glue and material for finishing the edge of the tabletop.

Additional accessories for table assembly

Self-tapping screws should be significantly shorter than the thickness of the future tabletop. The main tools for assembling the table will be a drill and a screwdriver. However, a screwdriver can be replaced with a screwdriver. The process will become more labor-intensive, but the satisfaction from the work done at the finish line will be no less.

Table top made of laminated chipboard

1. The process of assembling an extendable table should begin with measurements. The first thing you need to measure is the pieces of laminate. There should be three equal-width pieces in total. Two of them should be the same length, the third should be shorter. They should be divided into flat surface so that the short piece is between two identical ones, align and measure all over the place. Their total length will be the length of the extended table; it is important that it fits in the kitchen or room.

2. In order for the table structure to be solid, both in the extended and shifted state, at least two holes with a diameter of 8 mm and a depth of 20 mm must be drilled at the end of each piece of laminate from the inside. The holes on the insert must be drilled on both sides. The holes on one board should completely match the holes on the other two when they are connected to each other. Then, forty-millimeter dowels must be placed in the holes of the first board with glue, so that they are firmly seated there. The same should be done with the holes on one side of the insert. Now you can connect the pieces of laminate together. The dowels protruding from the end of one board will freely fit into the holes of the other
3. Then you need to measure the length of the corners and mark on one of the sides of each of them the middle and points of future holes that need to be drilled with a drill. In two corners the holes should be located to the left of the middle, and in the other two to the right.

   

   Drilling holes in the corners

4. Telescopic guides consist of two parts, with one of these parts being placed in the other and moving freely inside it. They need to be separated and bolted to the aluminum corner so that the wide, fixed part of the guides is attached to the corner with holes on the right, and the narrow part is attached to the corner with holes on the left.

   

   We attach the parts of the guides to the corners, mark the holes and drill them

5. The second telescopic guide should be connected to the second pair of corners in the same way. All that remains is to screw the guides to the two main pieces of laminate with self-tapping screws. In this case, the wide parts of the guides should be attached to one part of the tabletop, and the narrow parts to the other. Thus, a sliding mechanism is obtained that allows you to significantly increase the area of ​​the table, when necessary, and return it to its normal state, if necessary. big table disappeared.

   We screw the movable side to the right side, the fixed side to the left side of the tabletop.

6. A freely extendable table is convenient only in cases where it increases in size at the request of the owners. You can avoid spontaneous sliding apart if you install simple locks on all parts of the tabletop that hold the table halves together. The additional insert is held between the left and right halves of the tabletop not only by four dowels, but also by a sliding mechanism (on which it lies) tightly screwed to the tabletop.

   

   We attach a lock to each side of the table using self-tapping screws

7. In order to attach the legs to the table, you first need to attach them to the table. inner surface, the so-called heels, to which the legs are then simply screwed. The heels are attached to the tabletop with twenty-millimeter screws.

Finishing touches

Simple folding table with chrome legs

A kitchen table of this design can become a gathering place big family in the evenings or the center of a festive event (birthday, wedding anniversary, etc.). However, the old laminate itself is unlikely to inspire people to a long feast. It's a different matter if you decorate it slightly. It turns out that laminated surfaces, after some processing, can be painted and even drawn on them. Very little is needed to achieve the desired effect. Seal the end of the tabletop edge tape, it doesn’t matter what color, just to cover the ugly end. Sand the surface with sandpaper, treat the dents with putty and cover acrylic paint. The paint can be any color: from white to black. An image of flowers in the style of Zhostovo trays is applied to the black background of the table, turning the extendable table, an ordinary utilitarian thing, into a work of art. Handmade always risks becoming art, the master who creates it is always a creator.

Many novice craftsmen are wondering how to assemble a kitchen table without instructions, spending a minimum amount of time on all the work. The easiest and fastest option is to use a ready-made tabletop and legs. This design with correct installation can last quite a long time. There are other options for kitchen tables: completely wooden, corner, folding. They are all assembled according to approximately the same principle.

Required tools and materials

Most often during assembly kitchen table furniture board and laminated chipboard (laminated chipboard) are used. The main advantage of the first option is ease of use. On sale there is a pine board that can be easily drilled and sanded. You don’t need a workshop to work with it – you can assemble the table right at home. Panel furniture also has disadvantages. It has to be sanded to a smooth surface and further processed protective coatings– impregnation and varnish.

Particular attention should be paid to. The larger this parameter is, the stronger the furniture will be. A thin tabletop without additional reinforcement can bend under the weight of objects. For a table, it is not recommended to buy a furniture panel whose thickness is less than 3 cm.

Laminated chipboard is a more difficult material to work with: chips may form during cutting, and an edge will need to be glued to all open cuts. It is easier for novice craftsmen to buy a ready-made countertop made of chipboard the right size or order cutting and gluing of the edge when purchasing the material in hardware store. Chipboard also has its advantages. These include a wide range of colors and a variety of textures.

To create a kitchen table you will need furniture fittings– fastenings and ready-made supports. Sometimes timber is additionally used. It helps prevent sagging of furniture made from panels. To do this, a rectangular frame is made from timber. This design is called the underframe. Its task is to distribute the stress that most affects the corners of the furniture. Then the tabletop is placed on the frame. The timber is also used as table legs.

Tools you may need are a drill, a screwdriver or a screwdriver. The legs are often attached to the top of the table using self-tapping screws. Sometimes metal corners are used as fastenings.

Preparing for assembly

The instructions for assembling the kitchen table are simple. The first stage is preparatory. It starts with . First you need to decide how many people the table will be designed for. One seat is about 60 cm. Thus, the length of a table for 4 people will be about 1.2 m. The width depends on the area of ​​the kitchen. For small rooms it can be 75-80 cm.

U professional assemblers, including tables, will depend on the type of construction. It’s easier and faster to work with ready-made furniture supports. In this case, all the work will consist of marking the fasteners and installation. It is best to use adjustable legs. Such supports can be placed on the desired height after leveling the tabletop. These legs are suitable for those who have uneven floors. Alternatively, you can make the table on two supports. They are sold in furniture stores.

Assembly steps

Let's look at how to assemble a kitchen table with chrome legs. This option is simple and can be applied to any countertop. First, let's put marks for the subsequent screwing of the legs. Let's lean the mount against the tabletop and mark the points for the screws with a pencil. After this you need to screw the mount. To do this you will need a screwdriver or screwdriver. Then you need to install the leg into the mounting location. It easily screws into a special hole in the center. Similar actions need to be done with the remaining supports.

More complex issue– how to screw legs to a wooden kitchen table. Such a design is much more difficult to assemble, since you need to think about the types of connections.

The classic one is strengthened with the help of a special base, which is a frame made of timber. Minimum height each plank is 12 cm, and the thickness is 3 cm.

If the legs are made of timber, then their cross-section should not be less than 6x6 cm. Traditionally, the entire structure is assembled using a tongue-and-groove connection. Then, to fasten the slats and legs together, use metal corner. After this, they move on to installing the countertop. It can be connected to the base using screws.

Features of assembling a corner structure

Corner table is suitable for small kitchen. This model saves space and looks quite unusual. To construct a corner table you will need a table top and 2 or 3 legs.

How to assemble a corner kitchen table (instructions and step-by-step guide):

1. Mark on furniture panel the length and width of the future tabletop (both parameters are measured from the corner). Connect the two resulting points with a straight line or arc. The table cut can also be made curved.
2. Cut out the resulting shape using a jigsaw. Sand all edges with sandpaper.
3. Attach the leg to the tabletop and mark the attachment points.
4. Screw the legs to the top of the table using self-tapping screws.
5. If corner table Only 2 legs, then for greater stability it can be additionally attached to the wall.

Another option to save space is to make one that will be a continuation corner kitchen. This design is multifunctional and easy to implement. The table can be used as an additional work surface or take food after him.

Sometimes situations arise when guests come to the house and the owners have nowhere to seat everyone. In this situation, it is better to think about how to make an extendable table with your own hands in order to use it every day and in the event of a large feast.

It is worth noting that even beginners in carpentry can make such a model. You can easily outdo designer tables, adding a little personality to the furniture. This option can be used for both the kitchen and the dining room, it is great for large and small rooms. A practical folding table can be one of the most useful things in your home.

Dining tables have quite simple designs. Folding models are equipped with a special mechanism and additional tabletops. In general, everything is quite simple, the main thing is to draw up the drawings correctly at the very initial stage of work.

The main requirements for carpentry work are the quality of the material and the strength of its fastening. We all know what loads a table must withstand and must comply with this standard. In addition, this furniture is often transported, and this is another signal that you need to take care of the strength of the structure.

The dimensions are determined by who will use the sliding table. There are practically no restrictions here, except that the tabletops must be firmly held at the base.

The sliding parts are attached only at the very edge, so by making them very long, you will not benefit. Under any load greater than their own weight, they will sag and eventually break completely. It’s worth approaching this issue wisely and considering some diagrams that will tell you optimal length on your kitchen table.

Which material to choose?

All carpenters have a question: what material to choose for a do-it-yourself sliding table? A lot depends on what you plan to make, as well as your finances.

• pine;
• nut.

Before you begin to create the shape of the tabletop, the wood must be thoroughly dried. It is advisable to use a special moisture-repellent solution and cover the surface in several layers. Also, for additional protection You definitely need to use varnish.

To assemble the legs, you can use the same material as for the tabletop. A do-it-yourself sliding table will last longer if it consists of same material. The bars must be at least four centimeters, since only this thickness will allow them to withstand heavy solid wood and subsequent loads on the product.

Tools for work

It is worth understanding that assembling such furniture may take you quite a bit. a large number of time. To understand the process more broadly, watch the video on how to do it step by step with detailed explanations. You can learn something important from there and add something new to your table model.

In order for all the work to go smoothly, you should prepare everything in advance. necessary tool. Today it's not too much a big problem, almost everyone has a similar set in their home:

• screwdriver;
• drill;
• jigsaw;
• Sander;
• building level and tape measure;
• construction adhesive.

In addition, you should buy in advance the mechanisms for sliding kitchen tables, which will simply need to be installed later.

Assembly order

You should start assembling parts from the bottom of the table, that is, from the legs. Be sure to make marks at the joints in advance, accurately measuring all distances. Before direct assembly, it is advisable to varnish all parts, so the wood will retain its original appearance longer.

The upper part of the table and mechanisms are fixed to the legs. This results in some outlining of the product, onto which the countertops will ultimately be attached.

Remember that a correctly drawn up diagram will help you assemble the mechanism the first time, as experienced carpenters do.

The tabletops are attached to the construction angles to the finished contour. This should be done using small screws so as not to damage its appearance. Be sure to tighten everything thoroughly. For additional fastening of the fixed parts of the table, use construction adhesive.

Today, many people are trying their hand at carpentry. And this is right, because something created with one’s own hands is much more pleasing than something bought in a store. Especially if you creative person, then using your imagination, you can easily complement your room with bright details.

In this article we will tell you how to make an extendable table with your own hands. You, in turn, will be able to make sure that the manufacturing process is completely simple.

Equipment, materials and tools

Before you start making an extendable wooden table with your own hands, you need to prepare the following items:

• Laminated chipboard or wood panel for the tabletop;
• table top insert;
• chisel;
• screwdriver;
• roulette;
• sliding mechanism;
• drill;
• self-tapping screws for installing the sliding mechanism;
• hacksaw;
• screwdriver;

Selecting the product type

A wooden extendable table can have a round (or oval when extended) shape or be made in the form of a book-table.

The choice of one option or another is individual, but a round sliding table is more practical and has a presentable appearance.

Drawings of sliding tables with dimensions finished design easy to find on the Internet.

Step-by-step manufacturing of an extendable table

Before you begin assembly, you need to know the basics of design, that is, the requirements that apply to sliding tables of any type.

First, the table legs must be strong and durable enough. Their attachment to other elements should be as reliable as possible. Secondly, the tabletop itself must also be durable and strong.

The entire table must withstand heavy loads and be stable. Its surface should be practical and easy to use.

Preparing the main elements

The main elements are the tabletop and legs. Wooden components dining table good because they are environmentally friendly, reliable, durable and practical. Nevertheless, this material is most often used.

The tabletop can be made of either natural wood (oak, pine, walnut) or laminated chipboard (laminated chipboard).

You can make table legs yourself or purchase ready-made ones. Finished legs are round, square or carved. In addition, there are also on sale metal options this detail.

Assembling the table from prepared parts

The first stage is cutting and cutting out 2 pieces of the tabletop. If necessary, finish the ends and cover the surface. At the inner end of each part, 2 holes (8-10 mm in diameter) are drilled for the dowels of the removable elements.

Then a U-shaped box is made from the sidewalls, the corners of which are fastened from the inside with an aluminum corner. So that the box can move above the base, on inside the side parts of the body are secured by the reverse parts of the guides.

A tabletop is installed on top of the box. These elements are fastened together using aluminum corners.

Now you can proceed to installing the insert. Sliding mechanism, which is most often made of aluminum, is best secured with self-tapping screws, for convenience, turning the table over and placing it on the countertop. The guides of this device are screwed to long frames, and the sliders are screwed to one of the 2 parts of the tabletop.

To remove the insert when not needed, 2 slats are attached under the tabletop, which will hold the insert, hiding it inside the table structure.

The design of the sliding table can be changed if instead of 4 supports you use 2 wide ones or even leave one massive leg with a cross or platform. Also, these elements can have different shapes, for example, they can be made from figured or chiseled ones.

Appearance of sliding tables

This section presents numerous photos of sliding tables different shapes, sizes and designs. As you can see, such a piece of furniture can easily fit into the interior of any room.

Photos of do-it-yourself sliding tables

An oval-shaped folding kitchen table is perfect for those who like to have dinner with the whole family and occasionally receive guests. It's pretty easy to make yourself. Self-made furniture is distinguished by its original design and the ability to take into account individual needs determined by the characteristics of the room and the taste of the owners of the house.

Why an oval table?

An oval-shaped folding dining table is good because it has rounded corners. This avoids “unpleasant encounters” and is especially appreciated by those who have small children at home. The oval shape suggests the location of the table in the center of the room. However, if necessary, you can place such a table near the kitchen corner.

Preparing for work

Before starting work you must:

1. Determine the dimensions of the future table.
2. Make sketches and drawings of the design of the product and its individual parts.
3. Choice of tabletop material and supports.
4. Calculate required amount materials.
5. Purchase materials, fasteners and accessories.

Determining the size and shape of the table

The size of the product depends on the area of ​​the kitchen and the number of people that need to be placed at the table. The optimal solution for a medium-sized kitchen there will be a folding dining table measuring 120x80 cm (folded), consisting of two parts with dimensions of 60x80 cm each.

It would be correct to draw a sketch of the future product to scale in order to understand what ratio of the width and length of the table will allow you to maintain a beautiful rounded shape even when unfolded, and in a size suitable for a specific kitchen.

For a kitchen of this size, a folding oval dining table measuring 120x80 cm is suitable if placed with kitchen corner. If you place the table in the center of the room, access to the cabinets will be difficult kitchen set And household appliances. When receiving guests, you can place it in the middle of the kitchen.

The optimal length of the dining table top for a comfortable seating for one person is 60 cm. The sketch shows that an extendable table measuring 120x80 cm is perfect for four to six people (six will fit behind it if you move the table to the center of the kitchen). When unfolded, this table can seat up to 8 people. If you need a folding dining table for more guests, you can increase the size of the insert or make two identical ones.

Execution of drawings

It is necessary to complete the following drawings and sketches (option with a tabletop of two parts measuring 60x80 cm and one insert measuring 40x80 cm):

• drawing of the parts of the main tabletop, to determine the desired shape of the table and the corresponding rounding radius;

Tabletop made of two parts, size 60×80 cm, rounding radius 20 cm

Tabletop made of two parts, size 60×80 cm, rounding radius 30 cm

Tabletop made of two parts, size 60×80 cm, rounding radius 40 cm

• insert drawing 80x40 cm;
• sketch of the tabletop in an extended form;
• for tables with a drawer (underframe) drawing of drawer parts.

The specified dimensions of the drawer parts are suitable for a folding dining table measuring 120×80 cm in the shifted position. It is necessary to make two parts each with dimensions 80×12 cm and 40×12 cm.

Selection of materials

Details of the folding kitchen table:

• tabletop and inserts for it;
• supports (legs);
• king;
• edge (for tables made of chipboard and MDF);
• sliding mechanism;
• tabletop clamps;
• fasteners.

To make a folding table top, you can use wood, chipboard, MDF, natural stone and glass. Chipboard and MDF can be either laminated or coated with plastic. The thickness of the tabletop can be from 18 to 48 mm (sometimes more).

A natural stone- the most durable, moisture- and heat-resistant material. But this material has a significant disadvantage: it is quite expensive. As an alternative, you can use a countertop made of chipboard or MDF, decorated with ceramic tiles.

When choosing the color and thickness of the countertop, you must take into account the design of the remaining furnishings in the kitchen, especially the thickness and texture of the kitchen countertop.

The legs can be made from the same material as the tabletop, or you can purchase ready-made metal supports. They come in two types: for tables with a drawer and for tables without drawers.

The drawer can also be made from the same material as the table top, or from any other material suitable in thickness and texture.

The following edges are used to process laminated chipboard and MDF sections:

The most budget and least practical option- melamine edge, it is the thinnest and is a paper tape with a density of 120-130 g per square meter. m. Its thickness is 0.1 mm.

The PVC edge differs from it in its greater thickness and wear resistance.

The ABS edge is made of plastic and is characterized by increased impact resistance and resistance to external influences.

Acrylic edge is often called 3D edge due to its “3D” effect. This is the most advantageous, from the point of view appearance, option.

PVC, ABS and acrylic edges have a thickness of 0.4 to 2 mm. Depending on the thickness of the tabletop and other parts of the product, a suitable edge width is selected, which ranges from 18 to 55 mm. There are types of edges on sale with an already applied adhesive layer.

Sliding mechanisms for folding tables There are three types according to the method of fastening:

• for frameless tables;
• For internal fastening to the king;
• For external fastening to the king.

According to the method of sliding, there are two types of mechanisms: synchronous and non-synchronous. In the first case, the tabletop parts move apart simultaneously, in the second, separately.

When purchasing, you need to take into account the length of the non-expanded mechanism and the maximum size of the inserts (these parameters should be indicated in the characteristics of the mechanism).

For a folding table without drawers measuring 120×80 cm in a folded state with two inserts of 40 or 50 cm, a mechanism 98 cm long with maximum size inserts 50 cm (48/980/T2S).

To secure the tabletop, you will additionally need special locks. Their number depends on how many inserts the table has.

Calculation of required materials

Based on the completed drawings you need to calculate:

• the total area of ​​all table parts made of wood, chipboard or MDF;
• edge footage, for tables made of chipboard and MDF.

For a table without drawers with a tabletop made of two pieces of chipboard measuring 60x80 cm and one insert 40 cm wide, you will need: 1.3 sq. m. Chipboard, 9 m edges (with reserve), 4 metal supports, sliding mechanism, 4 tabletop clamps, dowels and screws.

Table manufacturing process

1. Cut out the table parts according to the drawings and cut them out.
2. Cover the cuts with an edge.
3. Assemble the table.
4. Finish finishing.

Tools:

• large ruler or tape measure;
• pencil;
• electric jigsaw;
• milling cutter;
• belt sander;
• drill;
• iron or hair dryer.

Uncover

Chipboard and MDF can be purchased in the form of sheets (boards) of a certain size. Minimum dimensions chipboard sheet or MDF are 244x120 cm. From the above calculation it can be seen that to make an oval sliding kitchen table measuring 120x80 cm (160x80 in the extended position) you will need one such sheet.

Examples of cutting chipboard sheets for an oval sliding kitchen table

The main tabletop will consist of two parts measuring 60x80 cm. It will be complemented by one part measuring 40x80 cm. The remaining material can be used to make stools and the result will be a wonderful set for the kitchen.

You can cut out the parts using a jigsaw; the roundings are done with a milling machine.

Edge banding

First, you need to carefully treat all the sections with sealant (silicone), let them dry, and then you can start gluing with edges. To do this, use an iron or a hair dryer.

It is necessary to first clean the cuts from wood dust. Then apply the edge so that it completely covers the cut (the width of the edge should be greater than the thickness of the table top). Turn on the iron and set the “synthetic” mode. Place newspaper between the iron and the cut and begin to heat the edge. After it begins to stick, smooth the finished area with a cloth and move the iron further. You need to smooth it until the edge cools down.

If the edge does not have its own adhesive layer, then you can use any universal glue. In this case, the cut surface should be smooth and free of dust. Glue must be applied to both the edge and the end and glue them together, while smoothing them with a roller or cloth. Instead of a cloth and a roller, you can use wooden block, covered with felt.

After completing the work, you need to carefully check whether there are any loose fragments. Then you need to chip off the edge protruding beyond the edges, remove any remaining glue and sand the edges with sandpaper.

Better adhesion can be achieved using a hair dryer. A stream of air with a temperature of 200 degrees should be directed only at adhesive layer. Well-heated glue should protrude from under the edge. Excess glue can be removed only after complete drying.

Table assembly

The assembly is performed in the following sequence:

• Place the halves of the main tabletop together.
• Attach a sliding mechanism to them.

• Install the tabletop clamps.

• Spread the halves of the main tabletop and insert the removable part.
• Attach the clamps to the insert so that when pulled apart, their parts coincide with the corresponding parts of the main tabletop.

• Screw the legs to the tabletop.

To do this on reverse side tabletops, we apply markings with a pencil to determine where to attach the legs. The optimal distance from the edge of the tabletop to the leg is 10 cm. On the ray connecting the center of the circle along which the tabletop was rounded with its edge, we retreat from the cut of the tabletop 13 cm (10 cm + 3 cm radius of the leg) and put a point. This point will coincide with the center of the support.
