General interest competitions rakatomalala (the first open championship of Asia and championship of Russia) resulted in a model of Rotorua (class Ѕ9А) Russian athlete Vladimir Menshikov. Will talk about it in detail. This model is schematically recall the development of the first of rotochutes (1994 — 1996) at the dawn of this category. It was then suggested that a similar version V. Menshikov. But the current model is at a higher technical level. It does not apply to the type of rotochutes container type. The body of the model consists of four blades made from balsa plates with a thickness of 1 mm. folded along the axis of the model, each blade, or rather its width (chord), is 1/4 of the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 40 mm.
TABLE-SLADES
This folding table is very convenient addition to the pantry room or closet where you store tools. When folded, it occupies so little space that he will notice something is not right. I made this table out the door of the old wardrobe, and for more stability I added another fold-up foot. M. SHAPKIN







To check the symmetry of the punch of a model of the ship on the drawing manufactures all of its frames (or polosamote). Although this work is easy, but requires time and material cost. For ship modeling clubs and laboratories, which launched production models of ships of various classes, I suggest using a universal mechanical pattern. It reliably and quickly provides control of compliance with the hull lines of the model of the vessel its theoretical drawing and defines even the most minor asymmetry to each side of the punch.

In the journal “modelist-Konstruktor” was published an article by a teacher from the city of Severodvinsk Vladimir Arkhipov, dedicated to the manufacture of plastic fine-grained cylindrical gears for motor car, ship and plane models on the example of gear made of polyethylene with the basic settings of m = 0.8 mm and z = 8. Continuing the theme, the author offers the readers a mold similar to the previous one, but with one fundamental difference — it is designed for making small batches of disc gears with the end location of the tooth.
