MINI-GALLEY OF THE BOAT

In a small cabin boats and yachts on the account each square decimeter square. To allocate a special space under the galley is a problem. Therefore, for cooking every time it is necessary to approach the shore, and the command is placed directly on the grass-field. In addition, you have to lug the dishes and supplies, something forgetting, annoyed and irritated. Especially if it’s raining or late with the choice of place for sleeping. However, for owners of vessels close to the dimensions of 2×5 m, the situation with the galley not hopeless, if the cabin to find a secluded area and attach the hands. An example might be the experience of a rational use of the area in the interior of our planing of the vehicle “Triton” (“modelist-Konstruktor” No. 5 of 1996).

GRANDPA'S INHERITANCE

Is made whether furniture or other woodwork — home of the wizard there is a desire to decorate their curly reliefs, patch convex pattern… Here it would be bailed out lathe. But the store to buy today is expensive. Do it yourself is another matter. The Bulgarian magazine “Young designer” offers to remember the simplest design, which was used by our grandfathers. It is attractive because it is available in the manufacture of almost everyone, has no complicated components and does not require any scarce materials. As possible, despite the “old days”, is no worse than any of the purchase options: after all, fine examples of folk art, which we admire in the local history and ethnographic museums were created about the same machines.

Yes, don’t waste it — and there’s no need. Just to implement their ideas, use every spare minute — they will develop in time”; then you will be surprised: when I mastered? Here to take at least the repair of the apartment. Even if it is not very “cosmetic” and no matter how large may be, it can be done in parts, and time. There are new techniques, if to look for them. Assume that you have already whitewashed ceilings, pasted fresh Wallpaper, updated floors, it was her turn to bring order to the kitchen and utility room.

CUT TRIPLEX

CUT GLASSI am sure that many Amateur automakers in the manufacture of machines are faced with the problem of glazing of the body. Most of them come of the situation, “tied” to the size and shape of automotive glass, used in used on production models. I dare to undertake the furnishing of “jeep” glass type laminated glass cut at the required dimensions independently. This used the diamond cutter. On both sides of the triplex drew them risks which rattled up to the appearance of a crack along the entire length. Then remove the part warmed by the flame of a spirit lamp. Connecting the layers of the laminated film was reheated, which allowed us to pull pieces of glass to. tion between the gap. Then I have to cut the film with a sharp knife, and the uneven glass edges to be dulled with sandpaper.

MOVE THE CABINET? NOT A PROBLEM!

MOVE THE CABINET? NOT A PROBLEM!If you decide to do in the house renovation, whitewash ceilings or just make a General cleaning, you will definitely encounter the necessity to move furniture. Here, for example, a wardrobe with clothes or books,— it does not budge until it’s empty. But even empty it is still not particularly transportable. Besides, if before the furniture was on the legs, but now it is mostly on solid supports, made in the form of a frame with a height of about 90 mm. So to sum under it, as before, the rope or slip Mat or felt is not always convenient.

“GUILLOTINE” FOR THE FRUIT

Delicious, fragrant Apple-pear. And vitamins not deprived. But with the safety of these fruits until next harvest problems, and sometimes considerable. But out drying, pickles jam and other methods of conservation. And the value of harvested products for future use, according to gourmets, will increase tremendously if the fruit is pre-cored. A normal knife is here ineffective as a commercially available special device. But the self-made pruner, dubbed my home “guillotine”, is beyond all praise. The bucket of apples cut into neat slices (removing from each fruit the core and storage in filled close to capacity) in 20 minutes!

READY FOR THE ARRIVAL OF GUESTS

READY FOR THE ARRIVAL OF GUESTSIn small families for meals often use the kitchen: quick and convenient — all at your fingertips. But the most cramped kitchens — normal “family” table size, say, 900×900 mm it will not deliver. It would seem that the solution is to use folding (food) design. However, the transformation of the table from small to large and Vice versa is accompanied by a significant inconvenience. For example, in the embodiment, when the table top is hinged at the top, you must first all of its items somewhere to move. In another embodiment, when the extra worktop is lowered and hangs vertically, it prevents the knees seated at the table of people.
