A simple gazebo in 1 day
A gazebo is simply an extremely necessary thing at the dacha to have a normal snack, drink tea, and just hide from the rain.
What do most people think: construction gazebos are a very long and labor-intensive process. Of course, there is some truth here, but it still depends on the design of the gazebo.
I will show you a gazebo that is absolutely possible to assemble in 1 day or 7-8 hours. Its advantage is not only that it is very simple, but also that it does not have a stationary foundation. And if desired, you can manually transfer it to any other place in no time without much effort.
You can use any boards to build a gazebo. As I already said, the gazebo does not have a foundation and is placed either on bricks or on the remains of paving slabs. But if you wish, you can dig trenches and pour a concrete foundation.
I won’t write down the dimensions of the gazebo, because I don’t know them, since I did everything by eye.
First of all, I decided on the perimeter of the rectangle and assembled it. I placed each corner on the tile. I then assembled two sides on the floor in the form of a pentagon, only without the bottom - the bottom board was already at the base. Notice that the pentagon secures a small piece of board at the very top. Without it, the whole system will fall apart.Attach the pentagons to the base. It’s better for two people to work here: one holds, the other pins.
Next we nail the longitudinal guides. Here I used a stepladder, but in general the roof can be assembled on the ground, and then put on the gazebo - as you like. We hammer the floor out of smaller boards and make benches. With this the entire frame is ready. The structure is stable and does not wobble.
I covered the gazebo with polycarbonate, but you can use a special roof covering, such as corrugated sheeting. But I decided to choose a cheaper one, although corrugated sheeting is better, due to the fact that it does not allow the sun’s rays to pass through. In general, what to cover is again up to you.
You can make such a simple gazebo not only for a summer house, but for a private home; the design is simple and unpretentious, and looks great.
