Today’s “unobtrusive service”, which have to apply for the small problems of household systems, effectively “bite”. Even the call an electrician, technician or plumber to diagnose, not to mention the simple elimination of minor faults, is quite expensive.
Therefore, minor damage or imperfections is much better to perform on their own. But to do this at home worker should be at least the most basic set of working tools. But if the head of the family or children, there is also passion, desire something to make with your own hands, you will need an Arsenal of tools.

VENEER DO
During the construction of the models is often necessary to apply a veneer of varying thickness. Typically the desired thickness is obtained by grinding with fungus with glued on end cloth, is inserted in the Chuck of the drilling machine. This method is most affordable, but it has several drawbacks: poor performance, inability to process veneer with thickness less than 0.5 mm, because of the rotation of the fungus veneer escapes from the hands and broken, and finally, the main drawback is the large air pollution wood dust. To handle more than three or four plates is not possible even a respirator.
GLUE COOKING
Advantages of adhesive bonding are well known. So to advertise no need. Amateur masters have long been actively using the method of bonding parts in their designs.
Currently, the range of materials has expanded considerably, and each requires its own glue. Need, unfortunately, is not always on sale. But in hardware stores and in the pharmacies you can buy individual components from which it is easy to make adhesives for many materials.
Today’s edition of the “Club house masters” introduces readers to recipes for adhesives that can be manufactured at home.
WITH ONE CALL
In your journal in one of the rooms of yesteryear has published an article — “the plug”. I must say that the proposed options combined metal dowels rather complicated to manufacture, but their use is justified for hollow panels and panels of partitions, which in modern buildings are not too frequent. Novosel is usually found with the need to drill or punch holes in concrete, brick and rarely in gipsolitovye panels, and requires significant skills, experience and special tools. Besides produce during operation the noise causes discomfort to the neighbors.
AND SHARPENING, AND DRILLING, AND MILL
To create a lathe-boring woodworking machine me prompted memories of school days when in the classroom I received the first skills of work on a lathe — lesson interesting and exciting. Since then, as they say, much water has flowed, but the desire to do of wood pieces of furniture with a beautiful chiseled details is preserved, but the necessary lathe I had. And I decided to do it, adapting to the bed of the other machine, consisting of a “circular saw” and electrofunk (see “M-K” № 1 ‘2011), thus obtaining woodworking mini-complex.
THE DRILL OF DRILLS
I’m probably not mistaken saying that the majority of home handymen’s dream is to have a universal bormashenko. How many opportunities it opens! Engraving, abrasive machining of parts of complex configuration, the manufacture of dies and molds, drilling and countersinking holes located in hard to drill places, jewelry work — this is not a complete list of operations to perform which allows this mechanism. It is not surprising that bormashenko, due to its large SROs, it is not easy to get.
THE MACHINE OF DRILLS
Everyone who had to drill holes using a hand drill or a hand brace, knows how difficult it is to keep the drill bit in the desired position (usually perpendicular to the surface of the workpiece). In many cases, to avoid such difficulties helps homemade machine hand drill.
Its design can be like this. Thick wide stand mounted vertical stand with two guide rails. In the grooves of the rails easy to move the strap connected to the Shoe (“slide”), to which by means of a metal strip is attached to the body of the drill.
The SMALLEST V12 ENGINE
A Spanish engineer named patalo were collected 12-cylinder V-shaped engine, which, he believes, is the smallest such engine in the world. The engine consists of 261 element, made of aluminum, bronze and stainless steel.
SCREEN “GOES OUT” TO THE BALCONY
Again getting popular pretty ancient, but timeless furniture design for home comfort — screen. Indoors she was fenced off area of the patient; modestly covered shy of dress; served simply with a partition separating a living area in the room from the other. When it was not desired — developed in a flat pack, without disturbing anyone and without taking up virtually no storage space, being tucked away in a closet or placed on the balcony. But in this latest version of its screen location, it turned out, not only can be, but also to perform, according to the Hungarian magazine “Earmaster” even a new feature, competing with the now popular Windows.
“ETERNAL” COVER
Thrifty owners tradition harvested in the winter, various pickles, jams has always existed, but today it is particularly topical: products are expensive, and the purchasing power behind. At the same time the country is experiencing a suburban boom, and the plots — planting, greenhouses, fruit trees, berry bushes. Grown crop requires processing and canning for the winter, and that means rolling many cans you need the metal cap.
