Buying first-class skills in solid wood furniture, from material selection to maintenance

It seems that many families have solid wood plots.
Visiting relatives and neighbors, I often hear that they are very proud to introduce their furniture. "This sofa is made of solid wood..." But in fact, I heard more, "I also like solid wood, but the pit is too More, I dare not buy."
Indeed, although solid wood furniture is closer to nature than fabric, glass, stainless steel and other industrial materials, and solid wood can give people a sense of visual comfort and psychological belonging, but the purchase of solid wood is very headache, light is not solid wood It has been very difficult, and it is necessary to distinguish whether it is the corresponding wood. After the purchase, there will be follow-up maintenance, not to mention the problem of money.
I am also a solid wood fan. Of course, like everyone else, I have stepped on countless pits during the process of purchasing solid wood. I summed up the experience of many pits and found that I only need to master some basic knowledge to eliminate most of the pits.
It seems that it is good to step on the pit, at least this time, you can share the experience of the summary, let everyone fill the pit together.
The first pit: Is this solid wood?




I used to think that this question is very simple, who knows that there are countless pits.
Before I went to buy a wardrobe, a store clerk (who didn’t say it) said to me, “Oh, I’m all solid wood...”, when I was dismantled on the spot, I changed my mouth and said, “Yes. I am a solid wood multi-layer board, which is laminated with a layer of solid wood..." When I saw this situation, I was too lazy to talk and turned my head and left.
At present, there are many products on the market that are packaged into solid wood for sale. Many people were pitted, that is, the board was bought as solid wood.
Never know who your next person is in the next pit. The best way is to learn how to identify yourself.



Before the bookshelf "Buy the bookshelf, I have the mood to read the book ah ~" has already mentioned the difference between the plate and the solid wood, (here the solid wood is pure solid wood, the solid wood plate also belongs to the plate oh), in the custom wardrobe text "custom Wardrobe shopping guide 丨 do not want to be fooled by sales, you have to know these, you have already taught you how to distinguish the various plates, now to teach you how to put those plates that are packaged into solid wood! (Knock on the blackboard, the following is the focus, pay attention to listen!)
The table and chairs are very simple. Observe the turning position of the table and chairs to see if there is any edge banding, or if there is no wood fiber section texture. Most of the plates are pretending to be solid wood, but the bark can't be folded and pasted, and most of the plates need to be edged to maintain their life, so it's easy to pick them up!



(This is the way the edge is sealed, and the corner is a long white gap.)



(This is the appearance of the wood fiber section, and the wood grain of the transition cannot be connected)



(When the turning wood grain can be attached, the depth and direction of the wood grain on the side and front can be matched)
The bed cabinet or the table and chair turn is painted, and there is no turning point. What should I do? It's also simple, you can see it by removing its metal joints! The identification method is the same as the above table and chair~



(This is the metal joint)
Ah! ! ! It looks very simple! The first pit was perfectly avoided, and the customs clearance was successful! Sprinkle flower ~~~
The second pit: What kind of solid wood is this?



Let's start to solve the next pit: Which kind of solid wood is it?
It is very simple to distinguish whether the solid wood is used, but it is difficult to distinguish which kind of solid wood. The type of solid wood is too much and too much, so you don't know how to start.
However, after scouring numerous online stores and passing through countless stores, I found that the solid wood furniture on the market is only the four mainstreams of pine, eucalyptus, white oak and black walnut. If you only need ordinary family needs, you only need to learn to identify these kinds of solid wood materials, you can swipe most home stores.
Pine, the cheapest in solid wood.



How to tell?
The best way to identify solid wood is to look at its wood grain shape. The growth characteristics of each tree appear on the wood grain.
The wood grain of the pine is horizontal and vertical, and there is no change. If you are not sure about the grain, you can also try to use your nails to make it easy to get the nail marks.
What is the wood?
The pine wood is soft, so it is easy to spur, so be careful.
It is also prone to insects, so you will see it is more scarred.
It is also faster to reflect the atmospheric temperature, so it is easy to swell.
Where do you often encounter it?
When you go to the store, you will find that the children's furniture store is almost all made of pine wood. Nowadays parents are worried that formaldehyde exceeds the standard and affects children. The formaldehyde content of solid wood is very low, and pine is the cheapest one in solid wood. Therefore, the children's solid wood furniture store is said to be made of pine wood. You can rest assured that it is pine. There is no cheaper solid wood. (ah...Is that I said too much...)
Pine is also commonly used as a cabinet drawer. It is hidden in the drawer as an auxiliary material, and it is often easy to be ignored, so some merchants will not specifically remind you, and slowly become a "regulation".
Elm, the most cost-effective.



How to tell?
The coffin is the easiest to distinguish! Because you will find that it has almost no wood grain. I always remember what a wooden friend told me. "If you encounter a drizzle, it is a coffin." If you also encounter such a solid wood with no rain on the surface, it is a coffin.
How is the wood?
The wood is hard and is very suitable for use as a table and chair.
It is easy to shape and is often used as an engraving material.
I don't know why, it is much heavier than other woods.
Where do you often encounter it?
The coffin is beautiful in appearance, hard in texture and not expensive, so almost all civilian solid wood furniture will be made of eucalyptus. Large furniture such as dining tables, sofas, beds, etc., will be made of eucalyptus. There are some stores in the store that use eucalyptus, and there are more independent furniture brands on the Internet.
The price of eucalyptus relative to pine is more expensive, but it is much cheaper than white oak and ash. If you want to buy solid wood furniture with high cost performance, it is super recommended eucalyptus, easy to identify, good quality, moderate price, no better choice. .
White oak, solid wood representative.



How to tell?
In oak, you often hear white oak and red oak, but in fact they are not distinguished by color, but by the length of the wood ray. From the above figure, the wood ray of red oak is relatively short. Only white oak is mentioned here, because domestic oak furniture is mainly white oak.



How is the wood?
The stability of white oak is very good, and the wood is hard and fully meets the needs of ordinary families.
After grinding, if you only apply wood wax oil, the feel is still a bit rough, and you can touch the wood rays carefully.
Where do you often encounter it?
White oak is a medium-to-high-end wood, which is rare in the store, but it is often standard on the online independent furniture brands.
Black walnut, the new darling of high-end furniture.



How to tell?
Black walnut is also easy to identify. Its unique chocolate color makes it clear to many people. When it is distinguished from wood grain, it has a straight texture, a fine structure to a slightly thicker and evener shape, and the string cut surface is a beautiful large parabolic pattern (large mountain pattern).
How is the wood?
The black walnut is very strong, so you don't have to worry about the bears at home.
The whole wood is also relatively stable, resistant to decay, not easy to crack, very delicate and smooth.
Where do you often encounter it?
Black walnut is the new darling of high-end furniture outside of mahogany. It’s new, but it’s been spent for years, at least since I touched solid wood furniture four or five years ago.
Originally thought that he is the most popular high-end wood used by online independent furniture brands (high-end is the price is very expensive), did not expect to visit a lot of stores, found that all are black walnuts. Why have you not let go of the black walnut?
Of course, in addition to these four, there are other solid woods, such as fir, ash, walnut, teak, and more advanced ebony, huanghuali and other mahogany, it is not a two can finish My kung fu is still not at home, I can't just say it.
The third pit: Is the quality of solid wood good?



Many people think that the quality of solid wood furniture is good. It is not a problem to use it for ten or eight years. But I often met someone who was on the street and said that it was not long before I bought it.
First of all, solid wood furniture is indeed of good quality, but the premise is that it has to be well maintained.
The most common cracking problem is that many people think that the quality is not good, but in fact, the maintenance is not done well. It seems that everyone just remembers the "quality" in front, ignores the "maintenance" behind, and then walks on the pit. Like solid wood, solid wood will cause thermal expansion and contraction due to changes in air moisture content. Although the wood that has been sold has been treated, sudden weather changes and geographical changes can cause cracking. In addition, many solid wood furniture surfaces are now coated with breathable wood wax oil, and the chance of solid wood coming into contact with air is greater. The possibility of cracking is even greater.
Generally speaking, the seller will have maintenance instructions (if you don't have to ask), according to the maintenance instructions, you can basically maintain the stability of the solid wood. This time is not a problem for ten or eight years.
Have you gotten the initial skills of these solid wood entry? There are also high-level skills, but I have to wait for another one to write an article, if I write here, I have to get a tens of thousands of words of graduation thesis.
These are all simple introductions, just the beginning.
