How to chop the bath

The lugged bath is made of two types of wood - bars or logs. In both cases, the process is divided into three stages: the preparation of the material, the choice of the method of compounds and the construction of the walls.

The timber has the right geometric shape, so it is easier to work with it. Details are made faster, the battery construction time is reduced. The walls are smooth, it is easier to separate them.

Types of timber:

Non-profiled - brutal from all sides log without additional processing;
Profiled - Smooth Standard Size Bar;
Glued - reliable, not exposed to a drunken.

Disadvantages of material:

Less resistant to rotting than log;
The cost of production is higher - it costs more expensive.

For the construction of the walls, a smooth and smooth bar is suitable. Strongly ready, curved parts are rejected and later used for small elements. Wood with rotary traces does not apply.

The construction of the bath box requires the bonding of the bars in the corners, among themselves and in length. There are several connection methods:

"Lastochkin Tail" is a reliable way that provides a hermetic and warm bundle of parts without additional fasteners.
"Native Schip" - a simpler lock pairing, in which the fixed nodes have rectangular shapes.
The connection in the "paw" - the engagement occurs by half or with the "sleepers" of the spikes and nests.
Bonding "Online" is an elementary method when the bars are connected using a metal fastener: simply, but the knot comes out.
"In Polterev" - deforestation is performed in half the sections, the elements are fixed using round wooden rods.

The extension of the bars along the length is carried out with a direct overhead lock, oblique bore or "hardwood". In order to protect against purging and increasing the mechanical strength of the crowns, swords are used. Wooden liners are rectangular shape or in the form of a tail of swallows, made of solid wood.

Choosing a log bathhouse for construction, it should be remembered that they are different:

Breed (okay) log - the most natural material subjected to only minimal handling with a manual tool - the most durable and weakly cracking.
Rounded - smooth and neat logs of a strictly defined thickness made on machines and devoid of natural protection requires mandatory impregnation with antiseptics.
The planed log - has a sufficiently smooth surface, but a small drop of diameter in length is preserved - for service life is located between the two first species.
Float - Wood-made-made outfit, something mean between the bar and a log: is significantly reduced on both sides, due to which it acquires an even size and attractive appearance.

The best wood quality for a log is harvested in a cold period and searched within a month.

For cutting, a cut is required ax, a chisel, a chain saw (gasoline or electric) and a special circulation - carpentry. Dense dusting logs is provided by a longitudinal groove performed by the following technology:
