Building a house from matches

Today we will learn how to make houses out of matches. This is a very interesting technique manufacture souvenir (or pyrotechnic devices:-)) from the cheapest material - matches. Moreover, you do not need any glue or nails. Interested? Then let's go ...







For the manufacture of the house we do not need the standard tools to create anything useful:



NAMA will need: 1 package of matches (in the best case, we use only 5 boxes). 2. Box from CD-ROM or book (table will serve to build, which can easily be rotated without disturbing the structure itself) 3. Coin (ideally - 3 Soviet penny, but you can use a 2-ruble coin. Paper money and Credit cards will not work:-))



Place the box on the CD-ROM to ourselves and begin assembly. Put the next two matches, parallel to each other so that the distance between them was a little less than the length of the match.



Do top deck of 8 matches. Recent matches should lie flat and form a square with the matches that lie below.



Put a second layer of planks (8 matches), perpendicular to the first. Matches that lie within, not necessarily have equal distances between them, but it will be easier, if you immediately place them exactly.



Now do well from the 7-series. Try to make it smooth. Head matches wells should be placed in a circle.



Carefully put on top of the well deck of 8 matches. It is desirable that the direction matches the upper deck was opposite the bottom.



Put the second deck, but now out of 6 matches. The last 2 matches, we'll add later. The resulting structure is pressed against the top coin, as the press. Now we can work with a house, pressing his finger. If we had not used the coin matches stuck to the fingers and the house could collapse.



Holding the house with one finger, stick vertical angle matches (at the top of the head) on the edges of the house between the decks.



Matches the lower decks can push the other match, but it should be that the house would not pulled off the bottom of matches.



Thus, the four corners match stuck through the upper and lower decks and stand on the box from the disc.



Very carefully match sticks on the perimeter along the walls, flooring auxiliary pushing match and holding a finger structure.



Compressible wall house on all four sides. Take out a coin. It is we no longer need.



Now the house can pick up. Compressing it from all sides.



Pressed into the match, which went around the perimeter until the end so that they pressed heads flooring. The resulting square of the heads of matches will serve as the foundation of the house, that is, from the outset, we began to build the house from the top.



Put the house on his legal foundation. We had a skeleton sticking out in all directions ends of matches. Now you can collect house on hand, so it will be more convenient. Protruding ends of matches, which we inserted the perimeter will be riding the house.



Do the wall. The walls are composed of two layers of matches - vertical and horizontal. Inserts a vertical matches on the one hand the house.



Do the same with the remaining 3-bedroom walls, inserting all heads-up match.



Now put a horizontal layer of the walls. Matches should go in a circle, as in the construction of the well head and matches should alternate with the ends of matches. After all the matches will be inserted, press the horizontal head matches so that they pressed matches the neighboring walls.



Ok, almost everything is ready. It remains to make the roof. Insert the missing matches in the corner holes and tucking the vertical wall below the match, take them out on the top half. Do not be afraid, the house is not to fall apart.



Put match the roof perpendicular to the upper deck. Starting from the edges and alternating direction matches, put on the first 2, then 4, then 6, and two middle rows - 8 matches.





Now between the protruding vertical matches paste match "tiles" heads to the middle (rather complicated process, you'll understand why). Presses the "tiles" in a circle heads side matches, pressing their fingers.



All house is ready. It can decorate the tube (4 matches are inserted into the entire roof), windows and doors (break matches in half and insert into the wall).
