In 1933 A. N. Tupolev proposed to make the Soviet analogue of “Martin”. He undertook this task, but decided it differently. His ANT-40 in no way resembled an American bomber. For maximum speed the fuselage is very compressed, completely abandoned corrugated cladding and outer charms of bombs.
SHOE, AND FOLDING
Universal cutter, known as the boot knife-Bong, easy to use, but inconvenient to store. If he give such a construction as shown in the figure, in inoperative position it will be just as safe as a pocket knife: folding, hide the blade in the wooden handle.
THE FILE — CHALK
When processing a file soft metal (or plastic wood) in the notches of stuck particles of cutting material, which is not easy then to get rid of. This will not happen if you RUB the tool with chalk or charcoal.
BRM “LUX” WITH TWO DRIVERS
In the encyclopedic reference book “Tanks” Hagle, published in 1935, stated that “with the installation of the dual control of the military value of the vehicles… can be enhanced as they are able to reverse it, and no u-turns”. In the early years of construction of armored vehicles were produced armored cars with two drivers occupying the front and rear control stations. An example is the armored AMD White (“white”), adopted at the armament of the French army in August, 1917, or Landsverk-185 (“the land sverk-185”), produced in Sweden in 1933 and Later, in 1951, again, the French have created even armor tank destroyer Panhard EBR75 (Panar) with 75-mm cannon, which also had dual controls.
MATT? EASY
To get out of the ordinary frosted glass, have it for a long time to handle with sandpaper or other abrasive. But there are less time consuming and easier way to achieve the same result. Simply mix the chalk powder with the silicate adhesive and apply it evenly on the glass surface: it will be Read more…

Is it possible to catch a fish, caught in an extreme situation and not having anything on hand for this? But the button that you have? And to dissolve any knitted thing, to get thread for fishing line? Then you are saved. At the end of the thread tie the head, and slightly above — Read more…
MEET: I — ROBOT “ORION”
Perhaps in the near future when the new spacecraft will go to the moon, Venus or Mars in the Arsenal of the astronauts will be robots who will come first to the planet’s surface to conduct scientific researches, to perform simple welding and Assembly work. So I decided the guys from the mug space simulation Sumy city station of young technicians and build a similar robot with their hands.PRESS PHOTOS…
To obtain good gloss on the pictures, you must tightly roll it to the plate elec-regencies. It is very convenient to do it with… washing machine, more specifically — squeezing rollers. Passed through them, the pictures size up to 20X30 cm not only tighter “stick” to the plate, but will get rid of the excess Read more…
I-17
In 1933, after the purchase by the Soviet Union license on 760 HP engine “Islamo-Suiza” 12ybrs. N. N Polikarpov again returned to the idea of creating a fighter with a liquid-cooled engine. The planned armament of two synchronised ShKAS machine guns and two promising guns ShVAK (nonsynchronous) caliber 20 mm. To achieve high speed, the fuselage is compressed to the limit, causing the cockpit was very cramped. Flight tests of the first instance And-17 began in the fall of 1934, but due to the identified deficiencies was short-lived.
