Useful tools for the garden. With his hands.
People do not get tired of coming up with all sorts of devices to work at their summer cottage it was easier and more productive, and the rest - comfortable and fun. Today we tell about some of the inventions that can make life easier for truckers.
dry the crop
In a wooden rack with drawers in several rows it is very convenient and eco-friendly store and dry the crop. Vegetables and fruits are well ventilated and not exposed to artificial materials - plastic and polyethylene, which contributes to their long-term preservation in its original form. In this design concept is easy, it does not take up much space, and even decorate your cottage.
The optimum height of the stack - 118 cm, it is designed to 5 drawers size 59 × 60 cm. If the rack to make greater use will be uncomfortable. However, no one stops to do a smaller number of boxes collected on the same principle. A principle is an assembly. You should begin with the walls. For each need to 2 bar with dimensions 5 × 5 cm and a length of 118 cm. It will shelving racks. In addition, the bars 12 need size 2,5 × 5 cm, length 60 cm.
Take 5 bars on each of the walls as guides for drawers, plus 1 bar - the top constructions. From the floor to the first rail distance should be 25 cm. A guide between - 17 cm. Let us give structural strength fastening diagonal bars 2.5 × 2.5 cm (length determines their exact diagonal walls). The ends of the bars cut at an angle of 60 °. In the outside bar at the intersection of the groove cut it out. Then seal bars bolts. To connect the wall into a single structure, grab bar 4 2,5 × 5 cm and 70 cm long each.
Overall dimensions of boxes - 59 × 59 cm, sides - from the board 2.5 × 8 cm. The bottoms of the boxes made of slats 1 × 2,5 cm of 17 pcs. The gaps between the rails - of approximately 1 cm. First mounted side boxes, and then fasten them to the rack.
Planting with ease
Adaptations for planting vegetables and herbs, many gardeners do with their hands. For example, Beets, carrots and vegetables, which are sown the seeds, very comfortable handmade wooden handle, like a rake. It allows you to draw a several flat rows at regular intervals. Depth row regulate pressure on the marker pen.
Quickly planted seeds on a bed of radish, onions on the pen, marker helps homemade egg tray. Take a piece with the size of the board tray and fasten thereto doorknob. On the other side of the board is pasted cells from eggs. When the glue dries, you can begin planting seeds. Push the handle into the ground, once we get ten identical depth landing pit. It remains only to throw into the wells seeds and sprinkle ground. For sowing spice plants to make green marker with a fine mesh of the tray from the quail eggs.
we grow seedlings
"Solar Box" for seedlings - a very simple but effective trick for summer residence. At the top of the carton is cut and one of the side surfaces. Now inside all the walls are lined with foil need, and the ends of foil to fix a stapler. We put in to get the seedling box and carry it on the windowsill. Thanks to the foil, sunlight is reflected, and the seedlings receives it several times more.
Bio-toilet with his hands
The simplest cottage composting toilet can be made of buckets, garbage bags and cat litter. Toilet seat is a large bucket. It is inserted into a tight garbage bag, which is attached with tape to the toilet seat. After each bag is filled using a cat litter or peat. As required, the contents of the bag is emptied into a compost pit. Your hands stay clean while.
From the refrigerator - in water heater
We suggest you make a homemade solar water heater consists of materials which can be found... in a landfill, and more specifically - the coil, which is mounted on the rear wall of the refrigerator (not forget to wash it from Freon). you'll also need an old rubber mat, a piece of glass (you can not new), foil and rail.
To start from the frame rails bring down to there freely placed coil. Coil and try on a rubber mat to the frame. It should be noted, where it will be mounted lower frame rail, and public places to make cuts to exit tubes. Between the rubber mat and frame to unfold the foil. For stiffening nailed lath structure with a reverse side of the chassis.
To the collector did not get inside the external cool air, all cracks should be carefully repaired with tape. Also, sealing tape space PVC tubing connections for water inlet and the coil. For fixing the coil clamps can be used, taken from the same refrigerator.
The next step - to cover our construction glass, taped it with tape around the perimeter. The solar collector is ready. Please note that for the best heat the sun's rays should fall on the glass at a right angle.
Now attach the water tank. Its circulation will take place by natural convection. By heating, the water in the reservoir will begin to expand and rise upwards, whereupon the tube will flow through the upper portion of the storage tank. At this time, cool water at the tank bottom will be displaced and will flow on another pipe to the bottom of the reservoir. When it is heated, it also rises in the tank, displacing cooler water.
Cooking in the sun
With the help of the sun, you can even cook. Khaled Bashir from the Gaza Strip, where electricity and gas are in short supply, even in 2000 built his first solar oven. Its advantages are obvious: a natural source of energy is available all year round and does not cost anything.
The inventor claims that his oven can cook everything except tea and coffee. In this case, the taste and quality of solar food - much better than those prepared in the usual way. Bashir has already helped his countrymen with the construction of 20 solar ovens. For the construction of a required two days, the cost of materials comes out to about 700 shekels. If you take no new wood and glass from old mirrors, the solar oven can reduce the cost.
Mini grills from scrap materials
If you do not barbecue, but want something to cook outdoors, make a one-time tiny Grill your own hands of a pair of molds for baking, three stationery clips - binders and one hanger.
The molds do the ventilation openings and connect them to each other terminals. Serpentine bend the hanger and place in the center of the molds. Everything. Elementary minigrill from scrap materials ready. Light a fire and roast hot dogs!
