Beds to make yourself with reclaimed wood and scaffolding tubes.

Free construction drawings for beds from wood and steel pipes.

Easy construction plans and assembly instructions for homemade beds and bedroom furniture.
Most of these constructions are made with tubes from scaffolding to make a frame, in combination with scaffold boards.
It is very easy to make these bed frames, but do not think that these beds are cheap.
You will need a lot of Kee Klamps, and those tube connections are not cheap at all.
On the other hand it is a good investment.

The longevity of these galvanised tubes and Kee Klamps is great.
And do not forget the possibility to repurpose the tubes and clamps again into other homemade furniture. Continue reading “Beds to make yourself with reclaimed wood and scaffolding tubes.”

Rolling table on wheels, made from scaffolding pipes.

Make a steel tube rolling table frame and tabletop from repurposed scaffolding wood.

This design for this rolling table is very similar to our construction draing how to make a kitchen table from scaffolding tubes.
The difference in this construction drawing are wheels under the table legs.
Our previous model had round metal footplates under the legs, and that made it a bit hard to move the table.

Wheels with brakes completely eliminate the difficulty to move these tables.
It will also prevent scratches on the floor.
After all, the tubes together with a scaffolding wood tabletop and all of the tube clamps have a considerable weight. Continue reading “Rolling table on wheels, made from scaffolding pipes.”

Scaffold tube table construction drawing and assembly guide.

Do it yourself example for a scaffold tube table.

Strong steel table frame made from galvanised pipes.
Table frame made from 42 mm. thick scaffolding tubes.

Make these tables with scaffold tubes 42 mm. in diameter.
That will make the frames very strong, therefore you will have no need for extra strengthening.
Nevertheless you can still use the same construction drawings for tubes that are thinner.
But in that case the scaffold tube table must not be too large.

This design is good to use for homemade dining tables as well as coffee tables.
Just change the sizes for the scaffolding tubes to make a larger or taller table shape. Continue reading “Scaffold tube table construction drawing and assembly guide.”

Tube clamps are available for many sizes of scaffolding pipes.
We recommend that you use a fairly large diameter to make these constructions.
A tube size around 40 milimeters is strong and still fairly affordable.
Bear in mind that the price for tubes and scaffolding clamps rises exponential with an increase of the tube diameter. Continue reading “Hammock and swinging bed supports, made with steel pipes from scaffolding.”

Goal for soccer and hockey, diy construction with scaffolding pipes and tube clamps.

Easy assembly method to make a goal for soccer or hockey.

Homemade soccer goal with tubes from scaffolding and pipe clamps.
Assembly of a homemade soccer goal.

You can adapt these construction drawings and assembly methods to any size of goal.
You probably do not want a full size soccer goal in the garden.
Make the goals larger when the kids grow up, you only need to change the length of some tubes.
One of the great advantages of scaffolding tubes and clamps is that you can repurpose all parts.

Maybe you already made such a soccer goal before, with PVC pipes.
That is also a very common material to make these goals, but PVC is a lot less durable.
Therefore we prefer to use steel tubes from scaffolding.
Continue reading “Goal for soccer and hockey, diy construction with scaffolding pipes and tube clamps.”

Round wood at the correct size for scaffold clamps.
Alternative to galvanised or aluminium scaffold tubes – round wood looks more rustic.

You have three choices for the tubes.
Firstly, and the most used, are the galvanised pipes from scaffolds.
Secondly you might choose pipes from aluminium.
These aluminium scaffold pipes are more smooth, have a colour and they are lightweight.

And finally you might want to use wood for the frame.
Round wood is available at the sizes for scaffold clamps, but not in every hardware store.
You can find more examples on our Pinterest board about Tube Furniture. Continue reading “Kitchen trolley construction example for scaffold pipes.”

This is a very strong system, that is clear when you see the materials that are part of these shelf constructions.
Thick galvanised tubes and clamps from scaffolds are the perfect materials to make a strong frame.

Footplates assure a strong anchorage to the wall.
The rack on this picture has three levels, and they are supported against the wall with eight footplates, each with two or even four screws.
That makes a total of 16 to 32 anchor points to the wall, for only three shelves.
Imagine the weight that such a support can carry. Continue reading “Shelves on a frame from scaffolding tubes.”

About the scaffolding wood.
This wood has been outside for several years.
Therefore it has a weathered look and feel to it.
This wood is lightly preserved and could even be used without any woodstain.
Nevertheless we advise to spend some time on a nice finish.
Choose nice looking planks, and sand them as smooth as possible before you aooly a woodstain to the planks. Continue reading “Tube chair with a frame made from scaffold tubes – adjustable inclination for the backrest.”
