A hydraulic jack is installed between them, as necessary pressing the stop to the lower crossbar of the frame. The force of the press is regulated by a jack, the dimensions of the working area are selected depending on the size of the workpieces.

When carrying out repair, construction or plumbing work, it often becomes necessary to use certain tools. But what if there are none at hand, and there is no opportunity to purchase them? In this case, you can make homemade tools and fixtures. Usually they are mounted from materials accessible to all.

Some items are easily modified, improved, resulting in products best quality. So, worn out and unnecessary things acquire new characteristics with an extended service life.

Methods for transforming individual items

1. A small diameter drill is easily made from a bicycle spoke.
2. Pipes of different calibers, tightly connected to each other, are easily transformed into devices for drilling side grooves. Their rods get different indicators sections. External thickness steel pipe equals 0.5 mm, internal foundations made from iron plates.
3. In the manufacture of the cutter, knives from electric razors are used. They are fixed in the drill chuck in the same way as the rollers from the lighter are placed.
4. The anvil is made from the remnants of old rails using an autogen. With it, the device takes on the appearance of an iron.
5. Waste vial left after gasoline lighters, easily modified into a butter dish. An old ballpoint pen with a cut off writing part allows you to make a hole in the lid of the container taken, then it is glued to this place. This oiler is designed to supply oil in small portions.
6. Needle files and files are made from cans for refilling the siphon. Such devices are attached to this container, tightly wrapping around the neck.
7. An empty tube after using toothpaste can be converted into a convenient lubricant storage device. The bottom of the old container is unstuck, washed and dried thoroughly. After that, the cap is unscrewed and the tube is filled with contents. Then the bottom is rolled, the lid is put in place. To provide maximum convenience, the cap can be drilled.
8. A disused ball will become a convenient vessel for stirring any composition. Such a container does not need to be laundered: after work, it is easily turned inside out, the solution leaves the elastic walls.
9. Old engine from washing machine or a vacuum cleaner can be modified by welding the mount and fixing the shaft on which the grinding fixture is placed.
10. You can make a convenient dust collector by taking it from conventional vacuum cleaner. A mesh filter is inserted into it, which allows you to protect it from damage. When using a magnet in it, the smallest particles will not be inside, but everything will be on the brush. Thus, fallen nuts, washers, screws will not be lost.
11. A serviceable motor of an out-of-use fan or mixer can be used to make an important tool in the household. An emery disc with a cross section of 4-6 cm or a circle of wood is taken, on which an ordinary emery cloth is put on. Also, the surface can be covered with felt, this fabric will allow you to grind small-sized parts, polish the cutting edge.
12. From unusable plastic bottle easy to level. Water is poured into it, the lid is tightly closed. After calibrating on a horizontal surface, the position of the water bubble is applied with a marker.

homemade tool almost every craftsman has it. A well-made mechanism affects the result of the work carried out. So, in metal products with a cutting part, the sharpness of the blade becomes an important feature. It is important for saws, axes, chisels. In the process of work, their edges quickly lose their previous indicators, so such products have to be sharpened periodically.

Back to index

The sharpening process will be noticeably facilitated if you use homemade devices for this. They help to improve the quality of the actions taken. An important part of such a device is a clamp, which consists of clamping and support bars. These elements must be the same size.

For this you need to take:

• wood trimmings;
• screws, nails.

Such devices are made from wood of any solid grades. Multilayer plywood is taken as an analogue. In the prepared parts, not far from the end part, cuts are made. The grooves should be the same - 50 × 9 mm. The support rail is connected to the base with card loops.

The length of the main part of this tool will be 10 cm longer, given that the length of the protrusions on each side corresponds to 5 cm. The device is fixed with clamps on the table top using these elements. To provide the mechanism with an inclination convenient for sharpening knives, you need to put a bar at the junction of the clamp and the base. It can be fixed with screws or nails.

One of the closely spaced faces of the bar is cut off, it is given the desired angle. To sharpen a hacksaw, you need to lay it in the space between the support and the slats with the teeth up and clamp it with bolts. The blade should be set in such a way that the saw tip protrudes 20 mm above the clamping part.

So, the main work on the manufacture of a sharpening tool has been completed. Could do some work to improve it appearance after that it is ready for use.

Owners of private houses and lovers of crafts dream of creating a carpentry home workshop. They buy interesting power tools and try to make their own carpentry tools. For these purposes, they use an electric drill, circular saw, jigsaw.

Carpentry equipment

"Advanced" masters have good workbenches with a vice, rare machines and tools that are very necessary for the manufacture of furniture:

The ubiquitous grinder

Every man has a power tool called a grinder. Actually this Grinder used for abrasive cutting of metal, stone, ceramic tiles and other materials. To do this, install a special abrasive disc with a thickness of 0.7 to 2.5 mm. Diameter cutting disc from 115 to 180 millimeters, it all depends on the hardness of the material being processed.

The peculiarity of this machine is the high speed of the electric motor, for example, the Whirlwind UShM-125 has 11 thousand revolutions per minute. It is this indicator and low weight, only 2.5 kilograms, that excites the minds of home craftsmen to adapt it to perform unusual types of metal-cutting work.

Homemade grinders are available in every garage and home workshop, moreover, each master makes a device for his own needs.

Cutting machine

A home-made option for the workshop is proposed - a cutting machine suitable for cutting corners, pipes, square profiles, fittings. The design of the device is simple:

• Desktop;
• brackets with a return spring;
• platform for mounting grinders;
• emphasis.

For this, a special protection is made, similar to the standard casing that comes with the tool. It has a slide, two handles and a rotary device. The slide looks like a plate measuring 200 x 120 millimeters, with a slot for the saw blade to exit.

The plate is attached on one side to the casing on a hinge, the other to a steel strip with a slot 9 mm wide for sliding along the M8x1.5 stud, which is on the casing for fixing with a wing nut.

Two handles are welded to the casing to hold the sawing machine during operation. Cutting and sawing lumber of small thickness is very convenient, and the high speed of the machine on the carpentry machine makes it easy to cut material up to 30 millimeters thick.

Vertical drilling model

The bed can be made from pieces of a corner of 50x50 millimeters and steel sheet 5 mm thick. To do this, weld two corners along the edges of the sheet for the entire length, they will serve as legs. Table size 350 x 200 mm. Weld the bracket on top square pipe 80 mm high for rack mounting.

The stand or guide for the drill is made of a square pipe three millimeters thick. A piece is welded into the upper hole water pipe eight millimeters long. A cable tension mechanism is inserted into it. Stand height 700 mm. The rack is inserted into the bracket and crimped with four bolts - two each on two sides of the square pipe.

The carriage is a movable unit on which the drill is attached. It is made of 50x50 corners, welded together, height 170 millimeters, the eyes are made of a strip three millimeters thick. An axle is inserted into the eyes, on which the cable is wound.

A continuation of the axis is a handle that drives the carriage.

The carriage drive consists of an axis on which a cable and a handle are wound. One end of the cable is attached to the bottom bracket. The upper end of the cable is fixed in the pipe at the upper end of the rack. A special bracket is attached to the carriage with seat under the electric drill. The drill itself is tightened with a special clamp made of a strip 2 mm thick and 40 mm wide.

Homemade turning fixture

There are a lot of home-made designs of lathes for wood. They are united by the presence of four main nodes:

• drive unit;
• bed;
• tailstock;
• assistant.

The difference is only in the choice of drive. Whoever has something from electromechanical devices is installed on the product:

• electric drill;
• Bulgarian;
• milling cutter;
• washing machine motor.

You can improve the already made metal-cutting structure by adding additional functions to it. For example, you can place a drilling machine horizontally on a workbench or table. The drive is an electric drill. The tailstock will be a working table in which a hole is drilled along the axis of the drill in the chuck and a thread is cut to screw the fixed center.

Additionally, install the handbrake, fixing it on the movable bracket of the rack. The workpiece is fastened with one end in a trident clamped in a drill chuck, the other end in a fixed center. For a small number of simple parts - a completely good home-made woodworking machine with a fixture and equipment for the manufacture of figured parts obtained by turning.

The list of tools and mechanisms for a workshop or garage is limited only by the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe premises and the material capabilities of the owner. Despite the fact that many products are made from waste, the costs of purchased parts and the tool required for assembly are quite tangible.

Sometimes it is cheaper to get a service in a specialized workshop than to do this work yourself.

Do-it-yourself garage press design

The design is intended for straightening, pressing, bending sheet materials and for compression. Locksmith devices are characterized by a compact and simple design. Efforts from such a press can vary between 5-100 tons. For garage work, an indicator of 10-20 tons is enough.To make such a design, a manual drive is used. hydraulic device contains two chambers with pistons.

Do-it-yourself press from a jack drawings

How to make a simple device can be viewed at special video do-it-yourself press from a jack:

A simple option is hydraulic, which can be constructed from a bottle jack.An important element is the bed, inside which the jack is placed. The platform is used as a reliable base. The upper surface is used to support the workpieces. The table should move freely up and down the frame.In this case, rigid springs are attached to the base on one side, and to the working surface on the other.

Here simple circuit assemblies:

• according to the drawings, the necessary elements are cut;
• the base is mounted by welding. Wherein steel structure should resemble the letter P;
• a mobile table is made from a pipe and a channel;
• at the end, the springs are fixed.
