THE MILL, WHICH PLOWS

MILL, WHICH PLOWSEach 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”.

While still a “beardless boy”, made a tricycle on the tires. But a serious love of cars started after the publication in № 11’91 of the journal “modelist-Konstruktor” (a regular reader of which I am) on crawler-ski snowmobile “Idea-2” brothers Matveichuk from, Zavodoukovsk Tyumen region. This is understandable: in winter and summer in our area equipment — not just a means of transportation, but also the mechanization of household work: a vegetable garden to plow, wood to bring.

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.

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.

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.

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.
