Model of a catamaran-class “P” with a sail-wing. Few people remember that the apparatus used for movements the aerodynamic forces, was created more than five thousand years ago. It was a self-propelled vessel with a sail propulsion, which worked exactly the same as the wing of a modern aircraft. The only difference is that the lift force of the aircraft wing pointing up vertically, and the pulling force of the sail horizontally. In fact, the movement of the sailboat is the same flight, only on the side.

And if the first two cases of special mechanisms is not required, when building a house can do without them. And the most necessary woodworking machineries — circular saw, power planer, milling machine, fixture for turning or instead of them — one multifunctional machine. It does not matter what the walls of the house: brick, concrete, or any other. No wood structures and materials is still not enough, since the tree — building material is not only versatile, but indispensable, especially for indoor decoration.
Each year, digging up kitchen with family land on the plot where the tractor was simply not to turn, thought: “I Need a walk-behind tractor-tiller”.

And then decided to make a walk — behind myself!
The car’s handling and tyre wear, as we know, primarily depends on the state of the front suspension of corners of a longitudinal inclination of axes of rotation, and angles of camber and toe. As a rule, adjustment of all these parameters produce on special stands at service stations, but in this case it is not always the adjustment will be optimal for a specific vehicle and specific conditions.
Familiarity with this machine was held at last year’s show “autoexotic” (photo No. 11’2006) — a celebration of homemade and vintage of motor equipment, which has now become traditional and held annually in Moscow at the Tushino airfield. Represented the car Alex starilov her new owner. He tells her readers of our magazine.
Just so you can say about worn parts restored by the method developed at the Chelyabinsk Institute of mechanization and electrification of agriculture.

Man I’m not so wealthy to afford to have multiple vehicles for different purposes (even homemade). So the car that was going to build, was conceived as a versatile vehicle not only for transportation of passengers or goods, but also as assistant in different economic Affairs.
Schematic flying models — the basis of mass sports: Effective speech with “sketchy” the competition gives right to assign the Junior category. The first such model with rubber motor was created just 12 years before the flight of the first aircraft Mozhaiskogo, i.e. in 1870. So what should the modern student to repeat what a hundred years ago managed to create only a talented engineer?
