Hinged shelf for the house with their own hands for 15-20 minutes
If you want an original and inexpensive hinged shelf, which will differ from those sold in furniture stores MDF-ok, we recommend that you take a closer look at this craft. 
For the manufacture will need 2 wooden boards,2 belts, nails and dowels with screws. The boards need soft coniferous wood, for example pine,. You can buy new ones or find old ones, but not rotten ones. Belts are exclusively leather, thick and strong with powerful metal buckles. Buy them in the store will be too expensive, so we recommend you look for "junkies" or "secons". There they will be 10 times cheaper and much higher in quality. Begin to do First determine the width of the shelf and under it we adjust the length of the boards. Saw the boards better with a small hacksaw to get more accurate. If desired, they can be dyed, varnished or treated in a different way. Next, measure an equal distance from the edges (7-15 cm) and mark it with a pencil. 
After the specified mark we establish belts andWe nail them with nails (the upper board is attached to the straps only from the butt.). You can also use thin screws, pre-drilled holes for them so that the board does not crack. # Gallery-1 {margin: auto; } # Gallery-1 .gallery-item {float: left; Margin-top: 10px; Text-align: center; Width: 33%; } # Gallery-1 img {border: 2px solid #cfcfcf; } # Gallery-1 .gallery-caption {margin-left: 0; } / * See gallery_shortcode () in wp-includes / media.php * / 
After assembling the structure, it is necessary to attach itTo the wall with dowels, well, or nails, if the walls are wooden. It is better to mount each belt in several places using wide washers so that they do not tear. Please note that for the two shelves, you may need to use 4 straps. Two belts simply fit together with buckles. On the shelf it is still desirable not to put too heavy things. But the book, a couple of flower pots and other small items, they will survive without any problems.
