Partition from pvc pipes with your own hands. What can be made from PVC pipes - from furniture to decorations. In what areas have PVC pipe cuttings been used?

With skill and a rich imagination, interesting and useful things can be made from any materials at hand, including plastic pipes.

plastic pipes different diameters are sold in any hardware store for quite affordable prices. They are used in plumbing, sewerage, heating, irrigation systems, and after construction or repair, unnecessary trimming often clogs the site, while it can serve as an excellent material for creative crafts.

Do not rush to take construction waste to the landfill - we will tell you what can be done from a plastic pipe to turn excess residue into beautiful and functional interior items.

What is good plastic pipe?

We will not talk about the direct purpose of the product, but about the convenience of using varieties of plastic pipes precisely as a material for crafts. Plastic pipes are light weight, strong and durable enough. They are resistant to dirt, do not collect dust and are easy to clean. Products made of plastic pipes are safe to use even by small children (they do not break, do not have a heavy weight, do not emit toxins).

For creative works PVC pipes are more often used, which are quite rigid and easily connected with special nozzles and "adapters", allowing you to get collapsible structures. Polypropylene pipes can also be used, but their connection will require a special welding machine or compression fittings, and finished products can no longer be disassembled.

Methods for connecting pipes in structures

From plastic pipes, you can make not only convenient household items, but also pieces of furniture. To such homemade product served for a long time and was reliable in operation, care must be taken to properly connect the individual segments. Since about the connection polypropylene pipes has already been said, consider the docking of only PVC pipes.

PVC plastic pipes can be connected in the following ways:

• in a bell with a rubber seal;
• with the help of an adhesive composition;
• bolts by drilling holes.

The first connection method is characterized by simplicity, but insufficient rigidity. Before connecting, it is recommended to clean the internal and external surfaces of the pipes at the joint from dust particles and treat the inserted part of the pipe with silicone grease. First, the pipe is inserted into the socket until it stops, after which it is carefully pulled back 0.7 - 1 cm. The structures assembled in this way can later be dismantled, which is convenient for seasonal products.

The second method of assembling pipes is distinguished by reliable fixation and greater labor intensity. Work on connecting parts begins with the processing of the mating surfaces of the socket and pipe with sandpaper for better adhesion. Then they must be degreased with methylene chloride. The adhesive composition is applied along the entire length of the prepared outer surface of the pipe and 2/3 of the length inner surface bell. Finally, the pipe is inserted into the socket until it stops and rotated a quarter of a turn. For gluing, it is required to press the parts for 1 minute. For good fixation, all operations to connect two segments must be carried out quickly enough. The connected elements are left for several hours until the adhesive composition dries completely.

The third method is more time consuming, as it requires marking and preparing holes, but allows you to get collapsible structures with a reliable connection.

For corner joints and connecting several segments at once in one node, it is convenient to use a variety of fittings. Plastic pipe structures can be of any complexity using numerous tees and fittings. Consider useful homemade in ascending order of complexity.

Original and functional little things for decorating the interior

Our Review interesting ideas open the simplest products from a plastic pipe, which even novice masters of homemade art can make. In addition, such crafts require a minimum amount of material, and in some cases even the shortest trimmings can be used.

From scraps of pipes of large and medium diameter, you can make a convenient and practical organizer for your office or workshop.

There are two options available here:

• fastening with self-tapping screws to a wall or table, for which one end of the segment is cut off at an angle - a stationary option;
• gluing the segments together to form a stable figure is a portable option.

The segments can be left white or gray, or you can paint it in your favorite color. Such an organizer is indispensable for schoolchildren and people involved in creativity and needlework. With him, everything will always be at hand, and on the table - the perfect order.

Additional comfort on the desktop will be provided by a drawing tablet and a laptop stand, which can be made from small-diameter polypropylene pipes.

Bookshelves are a special element of the interior. Their presence in a certain way characterizes the landlord. corner shelf in high-tech style will not go unnoticed.

From numerous short cuts of different diameters, you can make a patterned frame for a mirror or photograph. It is enough to glue the cut rings according to a pre-prepared layout, which can be applied to a sheet of cardboard. It can be floral patterns or something abstract. The dimensions of the frame will depend on the amount of suitable material.

Scraps of large diameter can be used to create a comfortable shoe shelf with numerous compartments-cells. This design will not take up much space in the corridor and will ensure proper storage of shoes and a quick search for the right pair. The elements are connected using glue or self-tapping screws. To fix the shelf on the wall, you can use a plywood sheet, to which the assembled shelf is first glued.

Some crafts made from PVC pipes will really appeal to lovers of fresh flowers. A reliable flower stand is simple in execution and looks pretty.

For the manufacture of flower pots for transplanting or breeding pets, small pieces of sewer pipes are well suited. Having shown imagination, such pots can be decorated with colored paper, paint or bright stickers.

It is easy to make a stylish vase for artificial flowers and dried flowers from elongated cylinders of medium diameter. If you approach the implementation of this idea creatively, then an original gift for a significant event can come out.

Another extraordinary idea for the interior is homemade techno-style lamps. There are a lot of execution options, but they all adhere to the principle of minimalism: no unnecessary details.

With the help of unused scraps, you can also make useful things in the hallway or corridor: a hanger for clothes and bags and a holder for garbage bags.

Crafts from plastic pipes for the playground

From PVC pipes, you can make a lot of crafts for children's entertainment in the yard: a developmental rug, an arena, a swing, a sled, a football goal, playhouse, outdoor shower and theater screen.

A very useful design for kids is a playpen made of PVC pipes.

Kids will love the lightweight swing that dries instantly after a warm summer rain.

In winter walks, homemade sleds will be the most reliable and fastest. The design is quite complicated, but with the help of practical videos you can figure it out.

For active games in the yard, safe football goals can be made from the remnants of plastic pipes.

Many children often dream of their castle in miniature. Making your childhood dreams come true is quite simple and not at all expensive. The frame is done very quickly. It remains to pick up a beautiful dense material for the roof and walls, and the house is ready!

The following structure will help to freshen up on a hot summer day. Such an open shower will be a joy not only for children, but also for adults.

From polypropylene pipes you can make a theatrical screen. It is enough to collect 3 frames, connect them together and close them with beautifully designed curtains. Home theater develops the creative abilities of children and creates good conditions for a fun time.

We update the interior economically: furniture made of plastic pipes

Crafts from plastic pipes with their own hands can occupy a key place in the interior. Craftsmen share many extraordinary solutions that can significantly save the family budget. Let's highlight the brightest of them.

The most common and sought after piece of furniture is a chair. Using pieces of plastic pipes and connecting elements, you can make high-quality chairs different types: for children, folding for hiking and fishing, armchairs and even highchairs for feeding.

Having mastered the assembly technique a little, you can proceed to more complex structures. A neat bunk bed made of polypropylene pipes is a good alternative for country house or cottages, when buying a ready-made crib is too expensive. Moreover, when the kids grow up, the material can be used to make other useful crafts.

The glass coffee table with a PVC pipe base in the next photo can hardly be called an amateur homemade product, because it looks like a design work.

Another one original idea- shelving for the hallway or living room. Having independently designed a rack with the right number of shelves of the required size, you can not waste time shopping in search of something suitable.

Useful crafts for a country house and a summer residence

Unused and superfluous building materials will definitely find a use for suburban area. Crafts from plastic pipes for summer cottages will make it much easier garden work, will make the rest more comfortable and help to avoid high material costs. At the same time, the designs look neat and stylish.

From small lengths and a few tees, you can get a nice dryer for clothes and towels. It is easy to clean and does not corrode.

Relaxing by the pool or in the shade of the garden is impossible to imagine without a sun lounger. The photo shows a chaise lounge, completely consisting of plastic pipes, but can also be combined with dense matter.

Carport - one more useful application PVC pipes. It will protect transport not only from a rain, but also from the scorching summer sun.

Often used for garden decoration garden arch, which can also be made of plastic pipes. A new element appears in its design - bent arcs. You can bend pipes for an arched vault by heating with a gas burner or boiling water. You can also put the pipe on a metal rod and, sticking one end into the soil, bend it in an arc. This method requires some physical effort.

A simple and light gazebo will decorate the garden and protect from the sun and light rain. For the presented option, it is enough to fix a waterproof raincoat fabric on the pipes and bend them on reinforcing bars. To make the design reliable, you need to take care of good fixation of the rods in the soil.

The range of application of plastic pipes is truly huge and limited only by your imagination and needs. You need a small woodcutter, a gate, a cart or a fishing rod stand - take required amount pipes and bring your idea to life.

It is easy to make a convenient feeder for chickens from sewer pipes. It is very convenient to pour grain with it without going into the corral. Chickens cannot rake grain in such feeders, which saves feed.

A small greenhouse in a summer cottage can also be made from plastic pipes. The easiest option: make a rectangular frame and cover it with a film or agrofibre.

A more serious construction - a seasonal greenhouse - will require more time and material. It is better to connect the elements with bolts so that it is possible to disassemble the structure into winter period. The optimal shape of the greenhouse is arched. To create it, the ends of the pipes are put on half-meter metal bars driven into the sides of the future greenhouse every meter. The dimensions of the greenhouse depend on the intended use. The greenhouse can be installed on the foundation or on the ground. Film, polycarbonate or agrofibre can be used as a covering material.

Plastic sewer pipes can also become a container for growing flowers, herbs and vegetables. Very often they are used to create vertical gardens.

To fence the site, you can use a low fence made of plastic pipes, which is durable and has minimal maintenance requirements (it does not need to be painted every year).

Specialization: facade finishing, interior decoration, construction of dachas, garages. The experience of an amateur gardener and horticulturist. He also has experience repairing cars and motorcycles. Hobbies: playing the guitar and much more, for which there is not enough time :)

At a glance find PVC application pipes are not easy, except for their intended purpose. But if you look at this material as a constructor, then you will surely have several interesting ideas in your head at once. In this article, as you probably already guessed, I will tell you how to make some useful crafts from PVC pipes at home.

Features of assembling parts from PVC pipes

First of all, I note that PVC pipes are a fairly durable material, which allows them to be used for a variety of purposes.. In particular, some home craftsmen even make roof racks from them for cars that are installed on the roof.

As a rule, for the manufacture of various crafts, in addition to the pipes themselves, tees and corners are used. Thanks to them from pipes you can assemble any frame structures as from a children's designer.

In cases where it is necessary to obtain a strong one-piece connection, the joints are coated with a special one, which, in fact, ensures the welding of parts. The instructions for working with it are quite simple:

1. First of all, cut the workpiece to the desired length;
2. then cut a chamfer from the end of the workpiece so that there are no burrs left that can scrape off the glue in the process of connecting the workpiece to the fitting;
3. then apply an even layer of adhesive to the adjacent surfaces of the workpiece and fitting;

1. after that, insert the pipe into the fitting until it stops and rotate the parts relative to each other by 90 degrees. In this position, they must be left for a while until the connection is securely glued together.

By this principle, you can collect any design.

Product types

I note right away that you can make any crafts from PVC pipes that only your imagination tells you. And as an example, later I will tell you how to make the following products from this material:

• laptop stand;
• rack;
• tent;
• flute
• blades for a wind turbine.

First of all, let's look at how to make the simplest craft - a laptop stand. To make it, you will need a minimum of parts, namely, six corners and five tubes.

This design is assembled very simply and quickly:

1. First of all, make two L-shaped parts of the same size. At the same time, the dimensions of the long tube depend on the depth of the laptop, while the short tubes determine the height of the stand, so their length is selected individually according to your desire;
2. then connect the two L-shaped parts with a cross member, which is attached to short tails, as shown in the photo above;
3. then install the corners that will hold the laptop so that it does not roll off the stand;
4. at the end of the work, you can paint the structure with spray paint in any color you like.

This completes the process of making the stand. Now your laptop will not heat up while standing on a table or, for example, on a sofa. In addition, it will be more convenient to work with him.

Rack

Making a PVC pipe rack is not much more difficult than a laptop stand. If the design is small, then it is based on four racks that are connected to each other by jumpers. On these jumpers, sheets of plywood or chipboard should be laid as shelves.

If the rack is large, its design can be complicated, as well as provide for fastening to the wall. These can be L-shaped brackets, which you can later attach to the wall with clamps.

In the process of making the rack, as well as all other crafts, make sure that all paired blanks are the same length so that the design does not turn out to be skewed.

Such a rack can be useful to you in the country, in the garage or in the pantry.

making a tent

The tent is a more complex structure, besides, in addition to the pipes themselves, you will need a tarpaulin or other suitable canvas that will stretch over the frame. However, there is still nothing super complicated in this work.

So, the process of making a tent is as follows:

1. start by preparing a drawing, which should show all the details with dimensions, as well as the location of the connecting fittings. The design is based on four pipes, to which four racks are attached.
   From above, the upper harness is attached to the racks, which serves as a roof. I note that it is easier to make a single-pitched tent, since it is quite difficult to find tees or 45-degree corners.
   If the tent has enough big sizes, include additional jumpers and racks in the design to increase its strength;
2. next, you need to cut the tubes into parts of the desired length, and also prepare the fittings. It should be noted that the fittings must be of high quality, since the strength and durability of the structure depends on this;

1. now you need to sew the awning according to the drawing;
2. at the end of the work, assemble the tent without gluing the joints so that the structure is collapsible, and then pull the awning over it.

As a result, you should get a high-quality tent, and its price will be disproportionately lower than a similar product from the store.

Making a catamaran

Lovers of outdoor recreation and tourism can be recommended to make not only a tent, but also a catamaran for walking on the water or fishing. Like all the other products described above, do-it-yourself PVC pipe catamaran is quite simple.

For its manufacture, we need three sewer pipes one and a half to two meters long each. The diameter should be as large as possible.

The design is made as follows:

1. connect large pipes with smaller diameter pipes. To do this, you can use clamps or make your own fasteners;
2. put caps on large pipes so that water does not get into them;

1. on the resulting base, put a shield of slats or other materials that will serve as a deck. In this case, a seat must be attached to the shield.

You can control such a catamaran with the help of oars, like a kayak. Of course, if you wish, you can make a more complex design with pedals and blades.

If you wish to provide Vacation home autonomous electricity, then you will need PVC pipes for the manufacture of blades. To do this, prepare blanks with a diameter of 160 mm. Of these, you can make blades up to 160-180 mm long, you should not make longer ones, as they can break off.

I note that the process of calculating the profile is quite complicated, requiring certain highly specialized knowledge. However, you can use a ready-made template, which you just need to enlarge to the desired scale.

The manufacturing process of the blades in this case will look like this:

1. first of all, you need to enlarge the template and print it on a scale of 1: 1, using several sheets of paper for this;
2. then, according to the template, it is necessary to mark the pipes;
3. further on the markup, you need to cut the blades from the PVC pipe;

1. after that, round the edges and sand the ends, as shown in the diagram above;
2. after completing the required number of blades, you should drill mounting holes to attach them to the generator.

The number of blades depends on the power of the generator. If its power is 30 W, four blades will be enough with a wheel diameter of 1.44 m.

flute making

From PVC pipes, you can make not only various useful products in the household, but also musical instruments, such as a flute. Even if you do not know how to play it, it can be a great decor element.

To make a flute, you will need the following materials and tools:

In general, the process of making a flute is quite simple, however, it is extremely important to correctly markup, since the height of sounds depends on it. Accordingly, if the layout is incorrect, the flute will not build.

Also keep in mind that the markup can be different, depending on the tuning and octave in which the instrument will sound. But let's not go into musical theory, but consider as an example how a shakuhachi flute is made in the key of D (re):

1. stick on the end of the pipe, after removing the stopper inside it. You can also use the cap by cutting off the end wall from it;

1. then grind the end and draw with a pencil a tangent line to the circle of the inner diameter of the tube, as shown in the diagram;

1. then saw off the upper part of the coupling along the marked line at an angle of 25-30 degrees to the longitudinal axis of the tube, i.e. as shown in the diagram above;

1. then grind the bevel with a file to form a notch of 3-4 mm;

1. after that, round off the lower part of the mouthpiece, which, when played, will rest against the chin;
2. Now we need to make a sound. Without holes, our flute should play the note "D";

1. then draw two opposite straight lines parallel to the axis of the tube and mark them along them, as shown in the diagram above;

1. then drill holes according to the markup. For the third hole, use a drill with a diameter of 9.5 mm, and for the rest - 10 mm;
2. now tune the flute according to the tuning fork, taking into account the fact that the larger the diameter of the hole, the higher the sound when it is opened;
3. when the flute is in tune, remove the small bevels from the edges of the holes with a sharp knife;
4. at the end of the work, decorate the flute, for example, by gluing a multi-colored strapping or electrical tape to it. On this PVC pipe flute is ready.

Here, perhaps, are all the crafts made from PVC pipes that I wanted to tell you about.

Manufacturing and assembly process

Below are the diagrams, drawings necessary for the manufacture of furniture from pipes. With their help, you can make armchairs, chairs, beds, racks, tables, a huge number of decorative elements. Products are interesting, durable and safe.

Armchair

The original way to use plastic pipes is to make a chair out of them. There are many options for its manufacture. It all depends on the desire, capabilities and imagination of the master. Plastic pipelines can become a material for the manufacture of a chair. You can make it with pvc pipes, a knife and glue.

To get an unusual chair, you need to do the following:

• First, cut pieces of different lengths. The main thing is that the longest segments should be the same length. They will act as supports;
• long will be needed for the back, armrests;
• then the segments are glued together so that the surface of the armrests and the backrest is on the same level. To the bottom, the length of the segments changes.

Thus, it turns out an interesting chair that will decorate any room in the house. To make it even more comfortable, pillows are placed on it or sheathed with foam rubber. In such an armchair it is pleasant to spend time, read a book, watch TV.

Details under the letter "A" determine the width and depth of the seat. The length of the pipes "B" determines the height of the seat from the ground. Details under the number "C" are the height of the armrests, and under the number "D" are the height of the backrest.

The above method makes a table, a bed. Different segments are glued together - it turns out the base of the bed. On top of it you need to put a comfortable mattress, pillows, blanket. This is a perfect place to sleep and rest.

In addition, cribs are made from this material. To do this, you need to study the diagrams and drawings. Then prepare the desired size segments. They are connected with fittings.

Furniture is made from plastic pipes. Two types of material are used in production: polypropylene (PP) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC).

Its advantages include:

• strength and durability;
• ease of installation;
• low cost.

The disadvantage of PVC is that when exposed to high temperatures, the pipes begin to deform. Unlike them, products made of polypropylene are not subject to shape change during high temperature water. They are able to withstand liquid heating up to 60 degrees, and if the pipe is reinforced, even more.

Both materials are equally suitable for making furniture. In addition, there are a huge variety of items that are made from scraps. These are shelves, coasters, a frame for a mirror and more. Furniture is easy to assemble. The design consists of pipes and fittings, the elements are also glued together. Even a beginner can make pieces of furniture from pvc pipes with his own hands.
