“AEROHOD” FISHERMAN

At that time, when decided to build a snowmobile, any particularly original design decisions and was not planned — the car was needed as a winter vehicle. However when picked up the necessary components, materials and set to work, began to appear the idea of different constructive solutions of some nodes. Even had some time to suspend work on the construction of the snowmobile and “to consider” the entire structure again — on paper. In the end, some decisions were not only unconventional (maybe not new, but considerably forgotten and not found in modern machines), and some original. Note design features.

MAPS WITH ENGINE CAPACITY OF FIVE SQUARE METERS

CARDS WITH AN ENGINE CAPACITY OF FIVE SQUARE METERSThe motor has been completely disassembled, and its dirty, greasy parts lying on the floor on spread out Newspapers. Vic sat next to me on his haunches, penetrating look gave details and stated authoritatively:
 
With this motor it will not work!
 
Sympathetically looked at me and said:
 
See for yourself. Piston rings (Victor bent one finger) no, magneto (he picked it up, skeptically fiddled with, put back in place and bent the second finger) ruined the clutch basket (there it went the third finger) can throw…

ORBITAL? YES, BUT THE EARTH

ORBITAL? YES, BUT the EARTHLYa LITTLE SENSATION. “After the invention was patented not only in Australia but also abroad, the curtain of secrecy that until recently hid work Ralph Sarich several parted. The look of the new motor is strikingly different from its predecessors. A prototype orbital engine is a solid disk with a diameter of 40.6 cm, a thickness of 12.7 cm and weighing about 45 kg, which are placed around the rotor of the combustion chamber… Engine Serica develops up to 200 horsepower. According to experts, in the mass production of orbital engine due to the simple design (only 10 moving parts) will cost many times cheaper motors used in the automotive industry at the present time”. This information was placed in the newspaper “Pravda” on January 20, 1973.

LIGHT STROKING…

LIGHT STROKING...Iron refers to those appliances, which seem to all have long known… Inside the case, near the massive base (sole plate) heating element is a tungsten spiral. The warmth of her through the soles heats the tissue. It would seem that I can come up with is new? Is it just to try something to change the design. But already there are more than two dozen varieties of irons. There is even a separate 307-75 GOST, according to which domestic irons are produced with a power of 250, 400, 750 and 1000 W, with weight from 0.8 to 2.5 kg with a temperature of 60-90°, 100-130°, 160-200°. Moreover, the heating time ranges from 3 to 10 min. And whether you ever get the idea to stroke… light? Yes, it is light. All know how hard it is to turn out of the cartridge burning lamp with your bare hands: you can burn yourself. And what it is stronger, the more difficult the task. The culprit — the so-called heat radiation. That used iron a new type of photon (author’s certificate No. 538074).

FIDO — HOMEMADE BOAT

FIDO — A HOMEMADE BOATIf you use our drawings and build this lightweight Dinghy roomy, believe me, will not regret it. The dimensions of the boat — 2,3X1,3X0,4 m and a weight of 32 kg. To build the best suited waterproof plywood, but you can use ordinary construction with a thickness of 4 mm. For cutting workpieces need leaf length 2400 mm as standard sheets have a smaller maximum size, the edges of their fill “on us” and stick together.

MINI-BOAT ANGLER

the Author with what tricks do not go to the fishermen, to much success. One day, my buddy is a big fan of fishing, lamented that it is often the catch is scarce only because of the fact that there is no way for you to go fishing-“the Donk” in the place where, by assumption, must be fish the bushes in the way, the strength is not enough. Then the idea was born to ship to fishing spots, tackle, and along with “baits” (complementary food in the form of pellets) to build a mini boat — RC small ship the size of a model.
