CATERPILLAR AROUND THE MOTOR
Many of you probably heard about the interesting winter sport — skijoring in which competing skiers towed by a motorcycle. In the Nordic countries is cultivated in this sport — towage of the skier by a horse. The vehicle, which we would like to introduce you to, will allow you to fully experience the charm of a high-speed slide on the slopes without resorting to using horses and not burdening a fellow motorcyclist (who wants to travel in the winter on an open two-wheeled car!).
PUMP THE “FROG”
IT IS CALLED “BTR”
Amateur designer Oleg Aliev Old from the Moscow region village of Ostrovtsy is known by many thanks to its handsome jeep “SIMOT”, built in 1996. This car can be seen in the television program “the suburbs” and on the feast of the newspaper “Moskovsky Komsomolets” in the Luzhniki stadium, in the “Race to the bottom” in Krylatskoye and motor racing “the frost-98” in Moscow, where he participated as a machine breakdown, and finally in rally “the Golden ring”, dedicated to the 850th anniversary of Moscow. Everywhere the jeep attracted attention, despite its somewhat austere appearance, therefore, by the way, he earned the nickname “BTR”. Even on the streets of Moscow, literally Packed with cars, “SIMOT” is of interest to overseas owners of expensive SUVs.
RUN — THROW
Throwing gliders enjoy enduring popularity among modelers — both beginners and experienced. The fact that these miniature models have performance more solid aircraft — they are capable of when you start hand to gain a height of over 20 m, hold steady to the “terms” and sometimes too far from the start.
TILLERS FOR ANY SOIL
Based on its first walk-behind tractor I took the “Vyatichi”, technical description, sketches, key components and parts of which were published in the journal “modelist-Konstruktor”. However, my opportunities, logistical and industrial base differed from what had the author of “Vyatichi”. The result was a homemade, little resembling the original design. Collected, as they say, every little helps, a farm machine though and does not look flimsy, but in front of a heavy loam of our black earth gave in — slip and quickly buried in the ground. Was not helping, lightweight or powerful enough engine of the scooter “Electron” or “bus terrain” with studs, welded on lugs. Namayavshis with such would – be tillers in the seed, I had to disassemble it in order to fly to make yourself a stronger metopomancy, working equally well on different soils and under any weather conditions.
FOR THE GARDEN
Technical solutions offered by one of the authors of our magazine, addressed to the owners of the garden and does not require for its implementation of high costs of labour, materials and cash. Perhaps the only thing you need is the desire to make everything better, sturdy.
GARAGE LIFT
JAVA-NO BATTERY
For the conversion of motorcycle into bezakkumulyatornyh I purchased: alternator 43.3701 (from motorcycles “Minsk” or “Sunrise”), two thyristor switch, CAT-1, the unit BKS-261.3764, inductive sensor and lamp and a sound signal of 12 V. you Can also make a 12 volt generator two generators Г427 from the old models of motorcycles: one to use as a base along with a section of the lighting (she wound a thick wire), and from another — only section of lighting. For this first generator need to remove three sections, wound with thinner wire (without touching the coil plug which is covered with a metal plate), and put instead of them the lighting coil removed from another generator. Then the two sections be connected in series. If the subsequent verification of the generator on the bike will determine that the voltage generated by the generator is not increased, but decreased, you need to reverse the connection of one of the sections on the opposite.
CAR? Air SUSPENSION!
In the taiga edges is not easy to do without the vehicle of the increased passability. Therefore, all-terrain vehicles have always held in high esteem. For example, I ride my both summer and winter. And he helps not only me. One day I went ice fishing. Steep coast with a height of about two meters from the river was covered with snow, was like a descent. My car is freely moved in this place on the ice where the depth of snow was more than half, and moved on.
