WITH THE BIKE IN THE SUBWAY

WITH THE BIKE - AND IN THE SUBWAYBut not to throw out it! And involuntarily thought creeps in to make it a foldable frame. The same as, say, the “Kama”. I reviewed the literature on the subject (including the publication in “M-K” № 3, 1990) and left unsatisfied — too difficult was the recommended design. Had to develop my — more simple. Tried it and now offer to the readers.

TWO SIZES AT ONCE

TWO SIZES AT ONCE

Gennady Krivopalov from Kuibyshev offers to make a clamp for the metal line. This device essentially has a new tool, you can use a square to lay parts flat and control immediately in two sizes, one of which is movable into the line – fixed clamping screw. When using this tool the accuracy of the measurements compared to the normal line increases to 0.3 mm. the two halves of a latch it is better to make from durable plastic – the metal is heavier. In the upper half, where there is a line, you need to saw through to her groove; the shank drill the hole and cut it the thread for the clamping screw. On the sloping faces should stick the second the same line.

WOOD STOVE AIR…

WOOD STOVE AIR...

A pity to throw away scraps of plywood, thin boards, chipboard, even if there is no place to apply them. However, I have a suggestion: make from scraps of a kind of wood-air oven. This will require glue (PVA or epoxy), sticks, strips, paint (or varnish) and possibly the fabric (e.g. old sheets). Required tools — a hacksaw, or “circular saw” .
So, explain the main idea and the details will depend on your capabilities or intentions.

TREHREZHIMNY HYDROPLANE

TREHREZHIMNY HYDROPLANEHigh speed RC model with electric drive is very popular with modelers-but-wickow and veteran athletes. This to a large extent contribute concise external form guide-registerof prototype that simplifies the design, allows you to make models from a variety of materials and used in the manufacture of a variety of technological methods — depending on experience, availability of certain materials and finished components (engine, onboard equipment and batteries).

FOR STUKELEY SCHEME

STUKELEY SCHEMEThe search for new solutions before the next sports season has led our members to very unusual for present-day design. In a subclass of HH-0.2 is now dominated by specialized yacht model. Basically it is a catamaran with a rigid sail-wing or newfangled pyramidal sailing tooling used again in mnogotochechnykh. However and those and others are clearly expressed signs of directions of designing of sports projectiles that have little in common with real yachts. So we tried to go back to the models one-korpusniki, refitting their sailing rigging. The fact that the classical scheme of a cutter with mainsail and staysail in its simplest initially losing performance in connection with birth defects tractive effort of the sails. We have used the so-called stukeley scheme (often referred to as the L-shaped mast). It has much better properties, as it provides the most Agnolo element snap — grotto — optimally and in a wide range of settings of the sails. Do note that designs based on technically sophisticated “bells and whistles” (like rotary wing masts and the like) are generally not considered when creating the model students all that’s out.

FOLDING BENCH

FOLDING WORKBENCHIn cramped urban apartments to find the place bulky bench is almost impossible. Well, my folded takes up very little space. In addition, it is light enough to carry in the summer the garden area and continue to work on the air. The workbench is made of two separate parts: removable bench Board and folding table base.

“BABY” PAVES THE FURROW

From the family of microstructures developed by students of Kharkiv Institute of mechanization and electrification of agriculture, the easiest and most accessible for self-production – how “the Kid” (HIMESH-2): it is the most used units and components of machinery produced by industry. It’s a small two-wheeled machine driven reaching for her operator. A large set of interchangeable towed and mounted implements makes a compact and versatile, allows to use it for plowing, harrowing, cultivating, hilling and other operations soil cultivation, plant care, and in the coupling with a single axle truck – like vehicle for transportation of various household goods. In the latter case, the operator becomes the driver and is placed on suspension seat on the front of the truck. Thanks to these properties, the tillers can be applied not only in a personal farming, but also can be used for mechanization of labor-consuming processes in crop production, especially in vegetable production and experimental plots of breeding stations, as well as livestock and greenhouses.
