Ideas for a comfortable life

Fresh air, a hammock and a bed of strawberries? It would be nice to them and even a shower with warm waters. And for a long stay in the country just needed washing machine. But how to connect it, if there is no running water?

Golden hands and head light users FORUMHOUSE We have come up with and implement many ideas for a comfortable life. We offer you a selection of interesting innovations summer.

Washing without water supply

The summer season at their summer cottage all is good, but unstable water spoils and work and leisure. Especially when the hands reach the wash. user FORUMHOUUSE Terristor I found a way to connect the washing machine without running water. only the capacity required with water, which will satisfy the needs of the machine, and a small electric modernization itself "stiralki". Electromagnetic relay is connected on one side to the solenoid of the machine, on the other - to the pump. The principle is simple: parallel programming pulse from the washing machine to open the valve switch is activated, the pump and fills the car.

The development of this idea and alternatives to the use of a washing machine without water supply can be found in this theme.

Summer shower

Organization of the soul at their summer cottage - no longer a question of luxury, but a common option. The shower is needed - it is clear to all. Current problem for householders today - how to make it to the maximum comfortable and at the same time not too expensive.

At the user's FORUMHOUSE Foxic the new dacha soul were such requirements:

• shower should have a full locker room (an old shower curtain performs this function);
• Shower should be warm;
• in the shower should be hot water.

To ensure cottage hot water shower, so even in the absence of running water, she decided to use wood-burning-type hot water tank column "Silistra" or waterline. According to the instruction, this column should be connected to the water supply. Water simulated barrel with water, installed on the roof and creates thus the water pressure.

Shower size 2,5h1,6h2,5m Foxicconstructed of timber and lining.

Woman on the structure of the roof was inspired by the idea of ​​the car boot (trunk level fixed on the sloping roof) over the lean-sloped roof is made of timber flat area on which was installed a 250-liter barrel. Given the height of pillars and foundations blocks cask is lifted from the ground by three meters, so the pressure in the shower - decent.

According to members of the forum, this shower is an ideal design after the following modifications:

• homemade mixer from the ball valves to increase the flow of water;
• laying pipe from a pump, water, etc. the barrel will allow once again not to go up to the roof;
• sensor installation allows you to control the water level in the barrel.

Innovative sawhorse

There are two ways to cut wood, nobody straining requests to hold a log: the good old wooden box and taped logs innovative profile. The second option is more convenient, practical and productive. Such non-standard box allows sawing logs at a comfortable height, and the tree, thanks to strong attachment, does not rotate when cutting. The basis of this design was the idea of ​​Swedish inventors, advanced users of our portal.

Also, it took a bit of steel bands for braces on the teeth and some bolts and nuts. The design allows you to work one nag convenient. For the purchase of the profile can not be spent - the design can be assembled from the available scrap. Taped can get heavy, and to navigate through the site it is possible to priladit wheel.

Ventilator machine for greenhouses

The opportunity to live permanently in the summer in the country is not at all, but to seedlings in the greenhouse is not "cooked", requires regular ventilation. To solve this problem will auto-closers opener vents.

Purchased a great variety of designs, but many prefer to make automatic vents with your hands.

Affordable option - take the gas cylinder from the trunk "Lada" 04, 08, 09 models, or "Niva" and modify, as did Rognarek.

The basal plate drilled hole produced gas, and cut it 10h1,25 thread for hose connection - you can use the front brake hose "Niva" (long), it is in any auto. He fastened the bolt, the same as a brake for the "Lada", but with the M6 ​​stud on the head (as the one that was basal plate cylinder), for fixing the head of the hinge into place. It will have to be ordered from Turner.

For manufacturing receiver required turning and welding works, welding sealed need - better gas. Receiver capacity - 600 ml, such as tube 40 mm in diameter and 400 mm in length. It is important to collect all sealed, since leakage of oil straying setting. It is possible to check the tightness of air from a conventional foot pump for wheels, under a pressure of 6-7 atm.

A detailed description of this and other designs look in this theme.

Dryer for shoes

Validating vet24 old oil heater turned into a comfortable and aesthetic dryer for shoes. The simple design is indispensable in a country house hallway. Bonus attached additional heating hallway.

Materials: 500 W heater, block 30 * 50 mm. Fasteners: screws, metal corners, small river stones, paint.

Deprive heater unnecessary attachments. Putting box-base. The design of the author radiator sandwiched between two cut out the shape and size of the heater frame. The power supply with the cord and the indicator is better to leave out the dryer housing. This prevents the ingress of moisture flowing from the shoe, on the electrical components. A required element - the legs. Without them, simply on the floor, tumble dryer will get very hot and very heated floor.

After the design verification of operation laid the stones on the radiator, completely filling the space.

According to the developer, after several months of use, the dryer perfectly recommended itself. The horizontal arrangement of the radiator did not affect its work. In addition, the owner set the timer on the outlet: unseasonably device works almost around the clock, with a pause of one hour every three hours.

There are, however, believed that the drying temperature is high - not very useful for shoes. Maybe better to make a device for drying at room temperature air flow? Quiet and safe drier obtained from computer fans, scraps of corrugated plastic sleeves for cable laying and the raspayachnoy plastic box.

Out of the box we take out the two plugs and expand the holes to tight start to the two cutting sleeves. Top round cut through the fan box and fasten it with screws. Of course, it is necessary to make sure that the fan blew air into the box, but not vice versa. The free ends of the sleeves deafen, and on the side of the hose ends do a lot of holes - perforations. The box set connector and solder it to the inside of the fan contacts. Connect to any connector adapter 12B and turn it into the net. Insert the ends of the sleeves inside the shoe - safe drying process went! According to the author SA Innovation Shasharina, Wet shoes dried for two to four hours. In this case, the machine has an extremely low power consumption - less than 2W, and is completely safe.

automatic cornice

For its automatic razdvigatelya forumchanin curtains Vlaus I used Standard cornice at the supporting bars. Traction roller on little engine - rear of the vehicle wiper. Carriages (details of children's designer) pulls a clothesline. Motor is controlled by a button in the car as the windows, and remote control of the anti-theft device.

Vlaus (User FORUMHOUSE):

As previously lived without such a device? In the morning in bed on the button you press the remote - and the curtains parted. The beauty!

According to a similar principle forum user Karapett adapted the engine and gearbox from the old grinder for automatic sliding gate opener - the engine power was quite sufficient. For a remote control panel from the car alarm.

Generally, the remote topic everyone and everything is very popular with gardeners. User Aleksandr7577, eg, collected radio garden pump unit by connecting with pendant radio button to the starter pump via a relay. Now he can operate the pump from any point of the garden.

holiday online

The Internet is so firmly entrenched in our lives that leave them not even want away from the working office and city apartment. Fortunately, cellular operators are now offering enough speed to use a global network with comfort. But what if the mobile operator tower located at a considerable distance from your home, the signal is too weak and the connection is lost on a regular basis?

User petrOvich, shoveled a bunch of ideas and solutions from the same Internet, I found a simple and inexpensive way, and now chatting and watching a video online with no problems.

petrOvich (User FORUMHOUSE):

I have a number of two towers, Megafon - two kilometers, MTS - three km. Neither the tower to move or to move closer to her unreal, but it is possible to increase the signal from the tower with the help of antennas. I have to increase the rate of two to three times the required small homemade antenna aimed at the tower and putting it out of the room.

And what if the tower is not up to three, and all of 30 kilometers? To add a satellite dish scheme - and you can have in the country is quite high-quality 3G-Internet. Development of the theme and the experience of other members of the forum - in thisand this branches.

Too many ideas truckers concern the creation and improvement of tools for building and gardening work. This theme is so rich in innovation, which is worthy of separate collections. The old slogan "Express Yourself! I invent! Try! "The owners of country houses are still popular. Indeed, so eager to life and work have been even better, more comfortable.

Materials for the production and modernization of plant, machinery, instruments, tools that facilitate the work in the house, on the site during construction, assembled in this section of the forum. Guide is the innovative list here. Interesting homemade to facilitate work described in this video.
