More rapidly advancing digital satellite TV, coming to replace the bulky radioligand lines. The population of our vast country, even in its most distant corners, appeared a real possibility of a wide choice of television channels with excellent quality of image and sound. Therefore, a great demand began to use satellite receivers with antennas in the form of “saucers.” Installation of reception of the electronic equipment does not cause trouble, but with the installation of the antenna sometimes there are difficulties: for example, in the zones of “shade” trees, high buildings, etc. In some cases, the reception of the satellite TV signal even becomes impossible. There is a need to install antennas as high as possible to get out of the “shadows.”
GARDEN “ROASTER”
Barbecue has long been the international (or interregional) Russian dish, spreading throughout the former Soviet Union and even beyond. Every connoisseur of this dish is your “brand” the secret of its preparation. Besides, meat kebabs, many people prefer now the variations from birds, fish and even mushrooms and vegetables, leaving unchanged only the final process of obtaining the finished product — roasting, which, in fact, gives a special flavor to food.FLOATING LOUNGER
The apparatus which I have named “aquaplane”, designed for active swimming on the back even for non-swimmers, with stops to rest as on a sun lounger, directly on the water surface. It consists of two separate parts: the float and foot oars plywood blade with “pedals”, the United articulated. The float consists of a foam Read more…
“GODDESS”, THE CHARACTERS AND SYMBOLS
Few ocean giants — “Rurik”, Gromoboy and Rossiya, though it presented a menace to navigation “ancestral enemy” — Britain in the case seemed such a possible war, but the scale of such threats were clearly insufficient. Three ships, even very powerful, did not make the weather. Cruisers need to have a lot; this postulate was confirmed by the experience of past wars and the logic has not yet occurred.

The classification of the European Association of Amateur athletes of ship modeling sport (“NAVIGA”) provides for managed competition models of sailing yachts in three classes: F5-M (“Marblehead”), F5-10 (“Enricher”) and F5-X (free). The design of boat models the first two classes has the names of the first winners of the European competition.THE LOCKING MECHANISM FOR HANGERS
Now, increasingly, reminders to us of the purchased clothing meets recommendation: to dry after washing on hangers. However, on the clothesline they are — a favorite toy of the wind: a pin is not secure, and that drives them, twirling, and then reset.

A TRAILER THAT CAN FLOAT

The trailer is made of sheet steel and aluminum, weighs 380 kg. inside, there are miniature pantry, two sofa beds, a washstand, gas stove, sink and even a TV. The upper part of the roof removable.VELOTANDEM – “ROAD”
Description a three-wheeled tandem, published in issue No. 3, 1979, I liked inherent in it the idea to tandem bike of the usual single, without making major changes to the original design. But the proposed version was not very satisfied: still frame of the second bike had undergone the unwanted interference. I wanted to find a way of articulation, that when there is no need to tandem it was possible to restore the bike to original form.
MAPS AND METAMORPHOSIS
What started karting? In the 30-ies very popular among American boys was competition for non-motorised trolleys moving along slant paths. Some Joker aptly called them “racing soap boxes.” And not without reason. The first truck actually had instead of the body wooden box, attached the wheels, instead steering was a rope connected to the ends of the front axle. Over time, the “racing soap boxes” has gained the rank of all-American Championships, which often have become well designed and carefully made by non-motorised carriages. But their name lived for a long time.FIRST GIMLET
To facilitate the screwing of the screws in the wooden part or wall of the tube made a simple device — a small gimlet, and doing some preliminary socket-deepening. Here is it the screw even by hand easily screwed in a few turns — then we can tighten it with a screwdriver. By the way, Read more…
