Typically the desired thickness is obtained by grinding with fungus with glued on end cloth, is inserted in the Chuck of the drilling machine. This method is most affordable, but it has several drawbacks: poor performance, inability to process veneer with thickness less than 0.5 mm, because of the rotation of the fungus veneer escapes from the hands and broken, and finally, the main drawback is the large air pollution wood dust. To handle more than three or four plates is not possible even a respirator.

“RAZLAGALSA” BATTERY

On the recommendation of the manufacturer to eliminate the memory effect of Nickel-cadmium batteries (NiCd) should clear their element to 0.4 V. For the implementation of the above requirements and automate the process of disconnecting the battery reaches level 0.4 V the authors propose a simple device.

To reduce the disconnection threshold of the discharge transistor /T2 is selected with a high rate of current transfer. The load (in addition to the resistor R2) and at the same time an indicator is incandescent НL with a voltage of 1 V at a current of 75 mA. In the absence of a low-voltage light bulbs a consumer may be led АЛ307Б.
