Museum of tanks in the garden Bashny.Net

"Bronemaster" Vyacheslav Verevochkin from the village of Great Oёsh Novosibirsk region manually, with a couple of mates, makes old iron military equipment - according to the drawings, to the millimeter sizes of surviving parts. Under the windows of the house - is a museum of tanks and armored vehicles.



The first thirty years of military equipment Verevochkin engaged on duty - in the army. Over the years his own disassemble and reassemble everything that moves in the army, and the modern technology he is not interested. Eighteen months ago Verevochkin retired, but left interest in machinery.



All tanks village craftsman does not outwardly different from the present, only the weapons they are not worth fighting.



Yard Vyacheslav Verevochkin like a museum of military equipment: here stands the domestic 75-millimeter cannon, mortars, fascist car "Kyugelvagen." All samples identical to the factory, to the last rivet.



As says Vyacheslav, for the manufacture of one tank goes from 6 months to a year.



Self-propelled armored copies of the last century - a unique product, collectors in the West willing to pay for such models, tens of thousands of dollars. Domestic fans of rarities and Russian museums work Verevochkin until demand.



Transmission in most cases borrowed from tractors, engines of trucks. The hardest part - trucks for tank tracks. They have to be ordered individually in foundries Novosibirsk plant. One track is worth $ 100, and they need to be about 70 pieces only on one side.



This year the designer has signed a contract with "Mosfilm", will build tanks for the film with the working title "Stalingrad».



Its tanks used for the reconstruction of hostilities. For example, in May last year, one such reconstruction took place under the Stupino near Belopesotsky monastery. This - Czech tank "Prague» Pz-38.



Once Vyacheslav was nearly brought to justice for the promotion of Nazi symbols. Now what else markings on foreign technology draws Verevochkin not avoid controversy.



The accuracy of copies of course is little doubt note that the intermediate wheel suspension joints only dummies. On the other hand - to make the most accurate copy would cost quite different money.



It looks like a tank inside.



And it blank for future technology.



As a material for the manufacture of models used ordinary sheet metal and parts from decommissioned tractors and combines. Of the tools - hammer, "Bulgarian" and welder.

Now, apparently Vyacheslav things went uphill and his hobby turned into work. A lot of orders, work in full swing. Nobody wants to buy his dacha tank?
