Fragrant shavings curl from under the cutter. And now, from a small workpiece, the contours of a rolling pin, pushers, handles of the day of a hand tool arise ... but you never know useful things can be done with a lathe at hand. But to make its simplest version, say, on the basis of a drill, but any home craftsman can do it, since almost all parts of the machine are made from an accessible and easily processed material: pine or birch bars.

The base of the machine is formed by two guides connected with a gap of 20 mm transverse bars.

Three vertical posts, reinforced on the base with screws, have landing trunnions for the necks of a hand drill fixed by pressing machines.

The tailstock is also made of a wooden block. It can be moved along the guides and clamped in the selected position by a long bolt, the head of which is fixedly fixed in the shoe located under the guides.

In the same way, on the longitudinal bars of the base between the tailstock and the drill mounts, the support plate for the cutters is mounted. The stop post is a thin-walled duralumin tube with a wooden rod inserted inside. A cut in its upper part and an annular clamp bent from a metal strip make it possible to fix the rod with a horizontal stop at the required height. The carrier plate having a longitudinal groove can also be displaced in a perpendicular direction.

The leading center, clamped in the drill chuck, is made of a stud with a wing nut screwed onto it. The pointed end of the stud serves as an axis around which the sharpened blades of the nut rotate the part.

The supporting center, also in the form of a pointed rod, is installed in the blind hole of the tailstock.

For the floor version of the machine, four wooden legs are required, which are attached to the base with metal threaded pins, tightly planted in the blind holes of the legs, and four nuts fixedly fixed in the sockets of the transverse bars of the base.

As you can see, the design of the machine is simple and affordable. However, in the manufacture of its components and assembly, it is useful to adhere to the following recommendations. Check the surface of the parts with a square and thickness gauge. Finishing with sanding paper; remember to blunt sharp edges. Connection of all elements - on screws or nails. When installing the drill, make sure that its body lies snugly in the trunnions of the racks, and the axis of rotation of the chuck is parallel to the base guides. The tailstock should move without play. The alignment of the leading and supporting centers is ensured when making a hole for the center in the tailstock - by drilling on the machine itself: install a drill in the chuck and feed the tailstock along the guides.

It is more convenient to work on such a machine with an assistant who sets the part in rotation; the use of an electric drill will greatly expand its capabilities.

Alcohol content of warm beer 07.05.2024

Beer, as one of the most common alcoholic drinks, has its own unique taste, which can change depending on the temperature of consumption. A new study by an international team of scientists has found that beer temperature has a significant impact on the perception of alcoholic taste. The study, led by materials scientist Lei Jiang, found that at different temperatures, ethanol and water molecules form different types of clusters, which affects the perception of alcoholic taste. At low temperatures, more pyramid-like clusters form, which reduces the pungency of the "ethanol" taste and makes the drink taste less alcoholic. On the contrary, as the temperature increases, the clusters become more chain-like, resulting in a more pronounced alcoholic taste. This explains why the taste of some alcoholic drinks, such as baijiu, can change depending on temperature. The data obtained opens up new prospects for beverage manufacturers, ... >>

Major risk factor for gambling addiction 07.05.2024

Computer games are becoming an increasingly popular form of entertainment among teenagers, but the associated risk of gaming addiction remains a significant problem. American scientists conducted a study to determine the main factors contributing to this addiction and offer recommendations for its prevention. Over the course of six years, 385 teenagers were followed to find out what factors may predispose them to gambling addiction. The results showed that 90% of study participants were not at risk of addiction, while 10% became gambling addicts. It turned out that the key factor in the onset of gambling addiction is a low level of prosocial behavior. Teenagers with a low level of prosocial behavior do not show interest in the help and support of others, which can lead to a loss of contact with the real world and a deepening dependence on virtual reality offered by computer games. Based on these results, scientists ... >>

Traffic noise delays the growth of chicks 06.05.2024

The sounds that surround us in modern cities are becoming increasingly piercing. However, few people think about how this noise affects the animal world, especially such delicate creatures as chicks that have not yet hatched from their eggs. Recent research is shedding light on this issue, indicating serious consequences for their development and survival. Scientists have found that exposure of zebra diamondback chicks to traffic noise can cause serious disruption to their development. Experiments have shown that noise pollution can significantly delay their hatching, and those chicks that do emerge face a number of health-promoting problems. The researchers also found that the negative effects of noise pollution extend into the adult birds. Reduced chances of reproduction and decreased fertility indicate the long-term effects that traffic noise has on wildlife. The study results highlight the need ... >>

Display for creating 3D holograms in the air 04.05.2014

The Apple patent published by the United States Patent and Trademark Office will be able, if implemented, to demonstrate to the owner of a device with this technology the most realistic visualization of a three-dimensional virtual world, and will also allow you to interact with it using various gestures.

The development, called "Interactive 3D Display System", will provide an opportunity, as noted above, not only to visually perceive a XNUMXD image, but also to touch it. According to the technical documentation, this patent describes nothing more than a holographic projection.

A registered "air display" optical system will need parabolic mirrors or lenses, which are key parts for projecting an image. Also, an infrared laser system with built-in sensors will take responsibility for creating the hologram, which will be able to recognize and store some of your gestures in memory in order to be guided by these commands to update images in the future.

Such an interaction between the projected image and the person implements the tactile control mechanism and opens a new stage of interactivity, allowing the viewer to rotate, scale and control the 3D objects created by the laser system. Thanks to the innovative "display", you can see the received images floating right in the air without the need for special glasses.

Apple is not the first company in the world to think about the implementation of such 3D holograms. In 2011, a Microsoft Research project called Vermeer made it possible to recreate an optical illusion that was presented to the viewer as a spatial model. The concept was brought to life with the help of parabolic mirrors and projector light, so the demonstration objects also had interactivity, reacting to certain movements.
