The whole saga began with simple - with the will. Here again, in the summer and wanted to freshen up at any time, and in the winter to warm your bones decrepit in his own bathhouse. Agree that the desire is quite justified.

Second Thoughts, assessment of their own forces and resources led to the decision that the bath - be. Was chosen the simplest project bathhouse from a bar 4x3. The foundation was supposed to make a columnar, everything else had to be to simplify and reduce the cost, but do not go too far and not skuperdyayskuyu infringe further operation.

The first place I went to was Google. Scrolling through more than a dozen options, I sketched in 3D steam room, suitable for my needs. Naturally, from an Internet models such banku much distinguished, e.g. asymmetry walls, a shelf in the steam room of 2.3 m, turned tiny washing (of 1.1 m in width). The ceilings have been made as low as possible (2.2 m). But to somehow expand the space, it was decided to make a wall frame 50mm in thickness.

Based on a makeshift construction model, sketched a rough estimate, which included absolutely everything (from the materials and finishing tools).

Immediately after the snow melted on my site, I went to the raid on the nearest construction base. The goal was to produce a larger number of necessary materials. It took about 6 m3 of wood boards fence etc.

As it turned out, the snow came down completely only with my site, on the road, he still had time to lay turn into slush, so everything had to ship their own hands, but somehow we coped 6 hands.

Glorified as sharpness and gravity, which helped to darkness all 6 drag timber cubes to the site. Now all the time needed to deal directly with the construction.

The first thing to do was razmotku because the area has a pretty decent bias and precision razmotki was threatened. Enjoyed only during a tape, thread and gidrourovnya (item to otvratno inconvenient, but is cheap and robust).

For razmotkoy followed earthworks, which took me half the legal holiday. Spin after the collision, "face to face" with the climbing shoes at a depth of 30 cm has decided that she wants to leave.

It was decided not to make too much of deepening (of 60-70 cm). This is not the type of construction, which costs all of these devices. Next, the wells were dug under the bars and oven, mixed concrete mortar in the old tub. I then took an oath even buy a concrete mixer, but stepped back, I forgot about this categorical decision.

Formwork for the foundation has previously been knocked together by nails, then dug in the pits, recorded with stones and iron bars. Each I sawed off with the measurement of the level, the slope of the pillars controlled normal level after the grout.

On all gone about a week. After pouring the concrete, I gave grips (10-14 days), removed the formwork, and was glad his own work as a child, because nothing not to go anywhere, not floated, stand firm. In the next post I will talk about how I built the walls, the roof and other elements of the bathhouse.
