THE PLOWMAN, AND THE REAPER

THE PLOWMAN AND THE REAPERWhat a strange situation in our country, anybody can afford to buy a tractor — that it is not needed (well, except for fun in a rustic Villa), and to whom the tractor is necessary, because he lives off the land — to buy it, not the means. But bare hands without mechanization on the ground not much accumulated. That forced those who no tractor can not do, to do it yourself from another suitable or remanufactured units old or abandoned equipment.

THE TRAILER-TRUCK

TRAILER TRUCKTrailers for passenger cars, turning them into a small truck, particularly popular with rural residents and owners of summer cottages. Naturally they greatly facilitate the delivery of a wide variety of goods – sand and peat, sand and manure, bricks and gravel. It is a pity that load and unload their accounts entirely by hand – with a shovel. Offer readers the trailer-truck with tipper body. Having made yourself this, you can get rid of the problems when unloading.

DRILL THE HOLE UNDER THE

BUR UNDER THE HOLEThe idea is to make readers Boer came to me in the following everyday situations: having descended into the manor house, did not have time before winter to conduct water from the well. Dig the same trench though not long (about 5 m), but fairly deep (about 2 m) in the frozen ground seemed difficult. Not to wait for the next summer, I decided to drill a little below the freezing depth of soil horizontal borehole (the borehole of relatively small diameter) for laying in it steel pipe in 3/4″ for the supply of water from the well through the underground to the house.

GARDEN “STUFF”

GARDENING Tillers, mini-tractors, potato harvesters For economically strong farms and farmsteads such a technique has long been not unusual Destiny of the less fortunate, it seems, can only hope for themselves, for their ability almost from “scrap” to create a solid mechanical aides, but on extremely simple, but trouble-free agricultural implement is “the gift of deep antiquity”.

CABBAGE CLEANS THE HARVESTER

CABBAGE CLEANS THE HARVESTERThe development of specialized agricultural systems is unthinkable without the complete mechanization of manual labor. Many vegetable) crops do not require manual labor for their cultivation and harvest. But the stumbling block to this remains the mechanization of harvesting cabbage. Not developed cabbage harvester our industry. So we have in ancient times to strike each head, to put in baskets or bags, and then load the trucks. And all by hand.

TO PLOW, MOW AND STACK CHANGE

TO PLOW, MOW AND STACK CHANGEIn rural life, there are many laborious works, which nevertheless must be done quickly, such as a spring — sown, summer — haymaking, harvesting in autumn and finally the snow in winter When they are executed, if there are many helpers, without mechanization not do a Great help on the farm would be workaholic-a tractor, but is it “rent”? So try the hosts of the farmsteads, knowing techniques to purchase inexpensive some broken tractor and restore it But for everyone of those too lacking, and therefore the “paracasei”, try to make the tractor themselves from discarded scrap metal units and units of different machines.

SCALE THE HEATERS NOT TERRIBLE

SCALE the Heaters NOT TERRIBLEholiday cottages or dwelling houses of the manor type of water is generally pumped from wells or boreholes. Heat it for domestic use often in electrotechno (pass-through or cyclic action) is a relatively inexpensive and convenient thermal devices. However, offer the industry’s elektrolitny designed for “soft” water with low salt content. And well or borehole water is usually “hard” (and therefore delicious) because it dissolved salts of various elements, particularly potassium. When heated, this water (especially boiling), the Heaters (thermal heaters) in the titans quickly covers the gray “fur coat” — scale, which impedes the heat transfer.

METAPHOR

METAPHORIsn’t that a stark contrast: while the fields of collective and state farms are treated today powerful “Kirov workers”, the private plots of rural workers in the old plow at best plow horse, and at worst — just dig with a shovel. This work is unproductive, time-consuming, moreover, requires considerable physical effort. That’s why many of the “homebrew” without waiting for the industry mastered the production of agricultural micro-technology, develop and produce motology and microfracture, cultivators and power hoes. In today’s publishing, you will be able to meet with the drawings and description of a homemade motor-plow, constructed a work of pumping plant VI Petruna from the village Svessa, Yampolsky district, Sumy region. Design although it did not meet all the requirements of modern design, completely reliable and fully justifies the name of metaphora.
