Russian Self Made Hummer

Recently we had a Russian guy from Kazakhstan who has built a Rolls Royce Phantom at home out of old Mercedes car. Seems that this trend is getting stronger. Now meet a Hummer car clone.
It can’t be called full replica as it is more likely a Russian approach for the Big Agressive Car that can be used to climb mountains, to sow and plough thru the fields, to clean snow and mud and even to… drive underwater.
“I have only one oxygen mask that can be used while you are driving by the bottom of the lake/river. Once we were crossing some lake and the car got stuck in the bottom mud. My passenger didn’t have a mask so he had to swim out to the surface to get some air and get back down to me to help releasing it.”, says the owner.
And yes, it can drive through the fire too! And now the pictures:
Robo Somethings

This days there is robot contest held in Moscow where different Russian self-made robots participate.
It’s not clear what are the robots for, so the captions are just translated from what we had.
Russian Wall-E Case Mod

This project took 18 days from this Russian guy to accomplish. It all has began after he has watched that cartoon. An idea sparked thru his head “I want to build such thing to hold my computer stuff in it”. A solid-metal Wall-E computer case, each detail carefully cut from the metal sheets processed and put in place. Swiss precision homemade heavy metal WallE geeky step-by-step history is waiting us below:
Pickles and Lamps

Russian drivers complain: “Mitsubishi Galant headlamps on cars coming from USA tend to break each every time there is a damp weather and fog lamps on.” But now seems they have found a great solution to this problem with the help of Russian pickles cans.
The Mobile Computer

When the recession reaches it’s most coarse drastic form and the consumption would aim for zero point values, then all the Asian production would stop causing so much chaos there. That means for us that no cheap consumer electronics would be made.
Still some middle-class proffesionals would need a mobile computer to be carried with them on their job tasks, so anyone would be able to make a mobile computer like this.
It’s durable, lasting doesn’t attract much attention and still it’s a mobile computer!
Some people in Russia has already started making some.
Sketch2Car

It’s all has began from small sketches he drafted every free minute he had. Then it has got to life as a new self made custom car a few years later.
Car of Wood

This guy in Ukraine removed all the exterior metal parts from the car and replaced them with wooden panels which are used for the floor parquet. He modified the car itself too, now it looks like a semi-cabrio - one part of it is without roof and another side is covered with a hard wooden roof.
A Painted Air Condition Set

Some Russian people are not happy with white air condition sets “ruining the overall designer’s look of my flat”, so this new service of painting air condition sets seems to become more popular these days.
The Paper Office

Some people have way too much free time on their hands, like these guys who have wrapped everything in the office into paper to make fun on their co-worker.
Floppy Discs Bag
