MICROLAENA

MICROLAENAModelers often have certain difficulties in acquiring light and noiseless gears, wheels, propeller, and propeller and other parts for improvised structures. At the same time, these problems can be avoided if prudent, businesslike now use a throw away to landfill discarded, worn-out nylon products, old plastic items and other “synthetic stuff”.

BETTER – COLLET CHUCK

BETTER - COLLET CHUCKThe idea is to expand the capabilities of the lathe for matches, published in the journal “modelist-Konstruktor”, arose when it became clear that, first, wood is modern matches absolutely unsuitable for such work and, secondly, the size of matchbox blanks severely limit the choice of machined parts. As a result, fixing of workpieces on the motor shaft nipple rubber require replacement.

CURLY SAW

FIGURE SAWTo complete the profile of woodcarving, offer readers a “M-K” to assemble a simple machine based on the electric drill IE-1036Э with electronic regulator of frequency of rotation of the spindle. This mechanical almost universal, it is suitable for cutting curly proraso as wood and metal. To make it simple saadeldin, with experience on machine tools drilling, turning and milling. To jigsaws will need a pair of gears (Z1=14 and Z2=40), bolts, bearings, pipe pieces, a piece of steel channel, steel plates of various sizes.

THE PROPANE BURNER

PROPANE BURNEROne way of joining metal parts is soldering. With proper selection of flux and solder these connections are more reliable and can withstand a high load. Brazing is carried out various gas burners, with a supercharger and no bliss using as fuel liquefied propane. Homemade injector burner can be powered by cylinders with liquefied propane with a capacity of 1 litre (and cylinders must be equipped with a valve with a hose or cylinders with a capacity of 25 liters.

NO HAMMER AND DOLLY

WITHOUT HAMMER AND DOLLYIn the practice of homebrew somehow less common device is a bending machine. I don’t think this is due to the rarity can be accomplished with it operations, rather — the lack of information about how to do it. For example, I haven’t seen in magazines or technical literature his descriptions. But this simple tool is very useful: it allows even unskilled wizard efficiently curving blanks from sheet material. This ensures the absence of deformation at the bent portion of the sheet, making it impossible to achieve using the traditional mallet and mandrel. Experienced in the production of our NII bending machine proved to be indispensable in the manufacture of chassis of radio equipment, various housings, casings and connection sheets in the fold.

FROM THE GRANDFATHER IN THE INHERITANCE

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.

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.

YOUR WOOD-MACHINING

YOUR WOOD-MACHINING

Delivered to readers a woodworking machine I own was designed, personally manufactured and now successfully use when building a house on his land. See how successful the design: compact.technologically, it seems suitable to “replicate”. The machine is so simple that sverhusiliya detailing for its production are unlikely to be needed. For all the attachment here free access. So if you want the design can be easily disassembled and transported in the trunk of the car, collect in a new place for thirty minutes.

PLANE FOR TWO

PLANER FOR TWO

Since the days when “Tsar Peter arapa married”, carpentry work associated with a large number of planing boards or timber, produced a two-handed plane. Such a tool would no doubt be useful for beginners and vacationers, the area which has no electricity. It is also important that the width of the cutting edge can reach up to 90 mm, whereby the productivity of labour thanks to the efforts of two people is much higher. In addition, it does not require any workbench: can be planed, sitting right on the stack of processed boards, the length of which is not limited, since most work is conducted outdoors. Movement partners resemble a rowing boat: one pulls a plane behind the front handle, and second — is pushing at the rear.

THE OLD WIZARD GYPSUM

THE OLD MAGICIAN — GIPS

Lathe in a home workshop is not a luxury but a primary necessity: the fact of the matter is necessary to produce parts that are in the geometry are called solids of revolution. But is it really impossible to do without a lathe? Not to remember us on the old, reliable, easily formed material — plaster. There are many details that there is no need to sharpen the cutter for hours to iron with sandpaper, polishing, etc. and all they could be plaster. Working with plaster is much easier than with wood or metal, and “machine” for this can easily be done in just a quarter of an hour from a sheet of thick plywood or chipboard in the center of which is inserted the axle — a metal or wooden rod. Still need a “cutter” — a plywood template with a metal cutting edge. The contour of the edge must correspond to half of the cross section of future products, for example, the layout of the wheel.
