What will come out of creativity and old parts: a selection of homemade tractors for a farm and a summer cottage
It is not for nothing that our country bears the proud title of the most powerful armored power in the world. Why? Because every third farmer is a design engineer! It will be necessary to assemble a wheeled tractor from old spare parts; there will be a need - will figure out a caterpillar mini-monster.

How our self-taught people differ from overseas ones: a little humor
How does a European construction enthusiast work? Probably, as it is necessary to work: transfers the idea to computer graphics, visualizes it; makes complex drawings; orders parts at the factory or buys ready-made ones at a car shop; sculpts the frame, assembles. Done! Original, nice, there is some know-how.
Then at some regional exhibition in the local county, everyone applauds and admires the "invention." But this is not very interesting, because a simple overseas self-taught person will not repeat a Caterpillar or a Volvo. And why all this work, if a European farmer can easily buy any agricultural machinery?
Our utilitarian approach
But our self-taught designer makes a tractor not for exhibitions, but for real farming. And he starts not with drawings and graphics, but with a crazy idea to connect a tractor launcher and a box from a Zhiguli. And our farmer does not look at the units and parts at the factory, but in the garage, from what is lying around.
If something is missing, it doesn’t matter: there will be motors, wheels, and bridges at any auto dismantling site. When all of this is brought into the farm garage, the harsh process of Russian fitting begins. First, a powerful frame is cooked from scrap metal. After the chassis is installed, then the engine with the box. At the final stage, all this is disassembled and assembled a dozen more times for final adjustment.
As a result, the old parts, the place of which in the landfill, come to life and turn into a multifunctional an assistant capable of: plowing, cultivating, harrowing, mowing, transporting building materials and other severity. If necessary, a homemade product can remove the snow and pull the car out of the mud. Some models can be operated as a convertible - a ride to the store with a breeze. If Elon Musk had known these people, he would have applied for a job without hesitation!
But seriously ...
In our market, equipment for the farmer and gardener is poorly presented. The reason for this is low purchasing power and, in the literal sense, a deadly credit system. An imported tractor bought in installments will be released at the price of a bulldozer after payments.
From the available there are walk-behind tractors, which, to put it mildly, are more suitable for summer cottages than for a good subsidiary farm. They are weak, uncomfortable, unreliable - the resource of such a technique is limited. Here, as they say, there is more noise than action. So you have to collect agricultural transformers in order to somehow facilitate the work.
