For while it attempts, as we know, was not successful, note that to perform this operation, in modern technical language, it took him three working “element”: one rounding (knee) and two power (paws). The most modern devices for bending tubes and bars contain the same three elements. Usually they are mounted on a special table. There is a metal loop, which is inserted into one end of the pipe, a stationary roller — on it is bent, and the movable roller with the lever.
Runabout created in 1957, little known at the time to a wide audience by engineer Alec Issigonis of the British Motor Corporation, justly called a masterpiece of design and autocostruzione. The urgent need for such a vehicle began to be felt in the large cities of great Britain in the mid 1950s due to increased car ownership and lack of space for Parking. That’s why an inexpensive, compact and economical car, capable to drive and Park there, where there is no place for a full-size, could find demand among buyers.

Central to the exhibition NTTM-78, dedicated to the XVIII Congress of the Komsomol, and the 60th anniversary of the Komsomol, very popular among the visitors enjoyed the section “Eureka”, in which he demonstrated unusual vehicles created by Amateur designers. Wheeled-tracked all-terrain vehicle “Arctic”, built as an electrician from Rybinsk Valery Medvedev, was one of those cars that arrived in Moscow on VDNH USSR “his way.” Yes, it was not a model but a live working machine, figuratively, “discontinued operation” in the household of his Creator.

Was close on the streets of big cities in many countries. Cars almost RUB against each other. The speed of the traffic flow often barely exceeds walking speed. But just watch — in a multi-bed machine sitting often only one driver, in the best case in society only passenger. The other places are empty. Then, maybe, you need to reduce the machine dimensions to one double-minicar, freeing up additional space on the streets thousands more like them?
