THE WAY TO “EAST”

Categories World of models

THE WAY TO The subject of today’s article – geophysical rocket R-2A. In previous publications we described in detail the technology of making copies of R-1 and R-2. The same technology used to create the model of R-2A. Will not be superfluous once more to tell for those who have not read those numbers.

I want to draw the reader’s attention to the fact that a copy of the R-2A for the competition will undoubtedly be more difficult than the previously described R-1 and R-2. But it justifies itself. First, the presence of side boosters (containers) due to the complexity of manufacture of the Central block leads to an increase in points for “the stand”. Secondly, if you do the ejection side of the mortars in the model (but more on that below), increased the rating for the flight demonstration.

THE WAY TO Model-a copy of the ballistic missile R-2

In 1951, took arms ballistic missile R-2 (product 8Ж38), created under the leadership of S. P. Korolev. Its performance characteristics were: missile launch weight of 20 to 300 kg, the maximum flight range is 576 km, mass of warhead – more than 1000 kg. R-2 to improve accuracy in lateral direction had a system of the frequency control with two antennas on the body, weight an untucked missiles – 4430 kg.

“RUBBER” BED

Categories Own hands

Children grow up fast: more recently, the baby and the stroller was large, and look – already and the crib is small, it is time to buy a grown-up.
 
But the proposed design can serve as a child without replacement from kindergarten age to adolescence. The fact that the bed sliding her length can be almost any. How is this achieved?

EXACTLY IN THE RING

Categories Good recommendations

When sawing any, but in particular plastic pipes (due to its “softness”) to withstand the cutting line is exactly perpendicular to the axis (or if necessary – on the contrary, under the right angle) will help the duct tape. Wound appropriately a ring from it will not allow the cutter to get off.

The majority of cabinets for the hallway there is one drawback: it is not possible to accommodate long items like skis or household step-ladder.
Proposed for the independent production of the French magazine “System D” rack-column has the winning height, a special unit, just designed to accommodate long items. The rest of the design decision is quite traditional: a section plus mezzanine.
