From old washing machines cylindrical shape, which is called "barrel", it is possible to make compact the concrete mixer and use it for domestic use.The device is quite complex, so to make it necessary to have at least basic knowledge in electrical engineering and plumbing.

first step is to remove from the washing machine activator.Instead, we will install the blades, which will mix the concrete.The blades need to cut and weld sheet metal (best if it will be).The blades should have a U-shape and a thickness of about 0.4-0.5 cm;must comply with a right angle between them.

Next welds the blade to the shaft at the spot where earlier there was an activator.Then you need to decide whether we leave the old engine or produce new.If you plan to mix a small portion of the solution, you do not need to change the engine.If the same amount of servings is large enough, it is better to install more powerful engine.Also, do not forget to put in place a belt transmission gearbox, which will reduce speed and increase torque.

Another useful device in the home, which can be converted stiralku - a juicer.However, it will be a very large and take up much space. for conversion into a juicer fit only old models of semi-automatic washing machines with the type of activator engine.

operating principle is the same as in the previous case: take out the activator and put yourself in his place made knives, which will shred fruits and vegetables.Knives should be sharp, so do not forget to sharpen them before installation.

Next, you need to work on the shaft: put on his thread, put on the blades, fix them suitable fasteners.Thereafter, sealing the drain and put into a centrifuge metal mesh with small cells.First, raw material is ground in a tank and then - wrung out in a centrifuge.

indispensable thing in the country - a sterilizer for cans. You'd be surprised, but it can also be done from the washing machine.The process of making jams and pickles will be faster, because in this unit can be sterilized several cans.

• put the plug in the hole of the activator;
• installed on the bottom of the support;
• support to put a metal grid for pots;
• drill a hole in the tank for the boiler;
• connect the boiler at 2 kV.

If the motor of the washing machine is in good condition, you can make it a grinder for knives and gardening tools.In addition to the engine itself, we need a grindstone.In addition, zagotovte base for the machine - for this is perfect thick wooden die.

the shaft adapter must be planted, which will be installed grinding and cutting wheels.At the base of the machine is secured by means of two pairs of metal staples.The switch for the device, you can borrow the same washing machine.

Perosemnaya machine - a device that allows you to quickly pluck poultry carcass.If you raise chickens, ducks, turkeys or other birds, such a device would be very useful to you.However, to make it yourself, you have to spend.Basic equipment: perosemnye rubber fingers are quite expensive.In addition, for each type of bird needed "fingers" of various diameters, since the size of a pen in different species may vary considerably.

Operation:

• produce a disc of steel (thickness - 0.3 cm diameter - minus 1 cm from the tank diameter);
• drill holes in the drive for "fingers" (the distance between them should be about 3 cm);
• drill the same holes on the sides of the tank, departing from the bottom 15 cm;
• install disk with vdet him "fingers" on the shaft;
• vdevaem perosemnye fingers in the holes drilled in the tank.
