A roof over my head and need a four-legged friend that’s guarding your house. It does not require much, but shelter from the weather is necessary and the dog. And to build a kennel is available to any owner, and this does not require special skills, special tools or materials – enough that usually have on hand: boards, roofing material, nails, handsaw, hammer.
So, for the cause!
After 1990-ies the influx of all sorts of previously scarce goods on the shelves is not cool the imagination and enthusiasm of the Russian homebrew. Confirmation of the club “Russian craftsmen”, created in 1992 in Chelyabinsk and combining proactive and creative craftsmen. Over the years the club has accumulated considerable experience in creating original household devices, and design and technical documentation for their manufacturing. Many homebrew familiar with the work of “Russian craftsman”, gladly use it; the reviews are mostly favorable. The highlight of the club’s structures — maximum utilization of the products ready for the possibility of low-cost parts and components.
The beginning of the nineties were particularly unpredictable are growing by leaps and bounds. Of ordered structures in my summer cottage, the builders made the walls to the chopped bath dimensions 5×3 m without a roof, and disappeared. Remained nothing how to take for completion, but not baths, and a small house with a stove in which it would be bearable to live until better times.
The desire to build the house occurred to me simultaneously with the receipt in the middle of 1980-ies of land— coveted six acres. Problem how to build a house: brick or wood— it was not. Brick and concrete walls rather tired and in town. Naturally, the choice fell on the hardwood. Only here what type to prefer: chopped (log, Brusova) or panel-frame— this question remained open. All agreed the case.
Designed and manufactured by me bee feeder resembles a school pencil case. The side and rear walls made of planks with cross section mm 60×10 each of them with the 4-mm deviation from the upper edge chose a circular saw, the groove depth of 4 mm the width of the groove was done such that the valve is cut from a glass, entered into it freely. Given its front wall height is 8 mm less than the side and rear.
The ventilation needs of many suburban buildings. Without it, mold in houses and sheds, get wet cellars and basements, and only use luftblasen, where there is no fan, to put it mildly, uncomfortable.
Of course, to equip the toilet or cellar electric supply or exhaust fan is not difficult, however, many summer cottages are not always electrified. But the fan that I want to tell the readers, electricity is not required – it rotates… rotor wind turbine.
An interesting new trend observed in modern suburban areas: they are less likely to be perceived as a place of garden chores, and, increasingly, as a place of serene rest. Hence, all the more changing the appearance of a country manor court, if berry bushes and fruit trees are still losing out, the beds in many cases are inferior to their area of smooth green lawns and beautifully equipped recreation areas with pavilions, miniature decorative pond, stationary grill and unprecedented barbecue.
Creative search is possible in all areas, and agriculture is no exception. For example, at the individual plot of each can experiment as much as you want at your pleasure. So I went to the dacha gardening. So I want to share some experience of experimental cultivation of potatoes — without the use of any mechanization and, moreover, without plowing the land.
Because as usual planting potatoes? Trying well loosen the soil and remains in her tubers. And then you have, more than once, to fight with weeds, for whom this earth as a Paradise; then the earth and again to dig in the fall to harvest. Well even if the soil is sandy or has the opportunity to use the mechanisms, and when clay? Yes, there are only a shovel and a rake, Yes weather —rain. No, there is no inventive imagination is not enough.
This house (Fig.1) with an area of 17 m2 consists of one room (see Fig.2) and may serve as a temporary shelter during the development of new suburban area. It is designed for four people — two adults and two children. The basis of its design is the frame (Fig.H), sheathed on the outside with asbestos cement sheets — flat for walls and wavy roof. Plasterboard going on the inner lining. Between the outer and inner covering of the walls and ceiling laid glass wool, which serves as an insulating layer. Design rests on the two tie concrete blocks that serve as the Foundation (see Fig.1 and 4).
It so happened that a winter forgot to drain the water from the washstand in the garden. Came spring, and the frost broke. Without the washstand in the country bad. A trip to the hardware store proved fruitless. At the time nothing suitable in the sale were not available. Then decided to make a vanity myself, out of scrap materials.
