I’ve been a longtime reader and a regular subscriber of the magazine “modelist-Konstruktor”. For nearly forty years, not only got acquainted with the machines and mechanisms for designers and fans, but also created their. So we can classify themselves as a cohort of “DIY” with the experience. Built mainly teleoperative and transport equipment (walking tractors to monster trucks).

The permeability of the motorcycle, in principle, “everywhere.” The only exceptions are water obstacles to a depth of over 30 cm (floods the ignition system) but the swamp where the man gets bogged down knee-deep On a motorcycle can carry cargo up to 30 kg, and the trailer under 80 kg in the summer — on the wheel (high flotation tires), winter — sledding.

In our home the garage there is a well-worn snowmobile “Buran”. I’m not going to Express their attitude to it in General, because the views of the owners on this issue diverge.

The basis of design — fir or pine Board dimensions mm. 40Х300Х650 Even better to take a few boards with a thickness of 80 to 35 mm, pripojovat them to each other and glue put it on both sides of the plywood (thickness 4 — 6 mm) cheeks. The workpiece slideway (Fig. 2) apply a grid with a side of a square equal to 50 mm, and gently move it to the contour of the Shoe. Vygruznoy saw cut out detail and clean edges.
