The proposed development has, of course, nothing to do with space. In this case, PMC (Control Center) is a control center for only the power supply of electrical equipment, not for flights into the Universe. Constructively executed as a compact electrical panel, it contains the most essential automatic blocks for a garage. Here are the Read more…
The house is built. Electricity is connected. Winter is coming… I suggest making a water heating system using an automatic tubular electric heater (TEN) “Ariston”. Reliability and automatic regulation of maximum heating are big advantages of this company’s “tens”. The simplest option is a boiler with a single-phase heater, similar to a piece of pipe. Read more…
Aviation mechanic M.A. Masterov is one of that remarkable group of amateur designers that the Udmurt land has always been proud of. His achievements include such serious works as delta- and motorized deltaplanes, an aircraft of his own design and a restored Yak-18T, various machine tools, and much more.

Whatever amateur designers may attempt, no better running gear for snowmobiles has yet been invented than the repeatedly tested combination of “ski plus pneumatic tire.” I became convinced of this after building and testing three variants of snowmobiles of my own design in sequence. The first machine had two skis in front and one wheel Read more…
Both during construction and during further operation or repair of an individual or country house, a special ladder is needed for work on the roof, preferably wooden, with an L-shaped end at the top so it can be hooked over the roof ridge. Often it remains there unused until the next time, due to the Read more…

You’ll need a water heater – a device that allows you to use the heat of hot gases exiting through the stove’s chimney. Design and operating principle. The water heater Read more…
I set myself the goal of making a nimble, reliable, and compact walk-behind tractor. So that this mechanical assistant would work in the garden, plow the vegetable garden, cut beds, plant potatoes in the home field, weed seedlings, and harvest… And most importantly, so that I could operate this equipment while sitting in a comfortable Read more…
