Abashi is unavailable to most bath owners due to the high cost. However, if you want to make strong durable furniture, then this type of wood will be optimal. Most often for baths choose linden.

After the required dimensions of the boards are determined, you can start working:

It is necessary to mount the frame of the wooden racks. For this, timber is taken.
Racks are fastened together. Even metal screws can be used here, because the body will not be in contact with this part of the shelf. The distance between two racks should be about 50 cm.
The frame must be attached to the walls of the bath.
Then the boards are attached to the frame. When mounting them, metal can no longer be used. The distance between two adjacent boards should be about 1 cm. This is necessary for the water to flow freely. In addition, such a device allows the structure to dry faster.

Stalls

A bench in the bath is done almost according to the same principle as the shelves. It is desirable that between the boards of the bench was a decent gap. The use of metal elements is almost impossible here. In some cases, benches are attached to the shelf.

For the bench you need to pick up:

seat strip (preferably thin);
wooden blocks for the frame;
fasteners.

Of the tools you will need in the first place a machine for grinding, or sandpaper. It is necessary for work not only with a bench, but also with a regiment. All boards should be perfectly polished, and their edges rounded. Otherwise, the furniture can be hurt.

Bars are measured. After marking cut.
The frame is knocked out of the bars.
On a frame levels are packed. The distance between them must be at least 1 cm.

For the manufacture of the average bench will require 6 pieces of timber 45 cm long, as well as 14 - 15 boards 90 cm long.
