Creating miniature furniture for dollhouses is an engaging and rewarding hobby that combines precision with creativity. In this project, we’ll craft a beautiful miniature sofa in 1:12 scale using 3mm thick wood and a table saw to ensure precise cuts.

Required Materials:

  • 3mm thick wood
  • Table saw for precise cutting
  • Wood glue
  • Fine sandpaper

Required Measurements:

First Side of Sofa:

  • 70mm × 15mm (2.76″ × 0.59″) – 2 pieces
  • 60mm × 15mm (2.36″ × 0.59″) – 4 pieces

Second Side of Sofa:

  • 70mm × 15mm (2.76″ × 0.59″) – 2 pieces
  • 60mm × 15mm (2.36″ × 0.59″) – 4 pieces

Sofa Base:

  • 60mm × 20mm (2.36″ × 0.79″) – 2 pieces
  • 20mm × 20mm (0.79″ × 0.79″) – 4 pieces
  • 130mm × 20mm (5.12″ × 0.79″) – 2 pieces
  • 59mm × 10mm (2.32″ × 0.39″) – 12 pieces

The construction process begins with accurately cutting all pieces using the table saw, followed by sanding the edges to ensure smoothness. Next, assemble the parts using wood glue while ensuring proper right angles. To facilitate the building process, a tutorial video is available that explains the steps in detail – simply follow the instructions carefully to achieve perfect results.
