Tires filled with sand and gravel from MAZ (Fig. 1), laid on a sand cushion, will serve as reliable supports for the garden house. This design, in addition to cheapness, is also good because it provides a large area of support and allows you to put houses where groundwater is suitable close to the surface.
Old tires will make reliable rubber pipes (Fig. 2). To do this, cut the tire (1) into sectors and put the links on a cylindrical frame (2) close to each other, for example, on a pipe segment or logs of a suitable diameter. Slots (3) of adjacent links should face in different directions. They are fastened with brackets and, if necessary, wrapped with strips of rubberized fabric or film (4). Gradually, stretching the frame, they increase the pipes to the desired length. Now they can be used to install the sewer network, and if you use a braid, then for drainage.
Sport tires and rides for playgrounds are made from old tires. Figure 3 depicts simple designs: Rocket and Carousel. They will look more elegant if the treads are painted in different colors with oil paint.
From tires, you get a durable and beautiful coating for garden paths. To do this, cut the tires from the sides, leaving only a relief "treadmill". Cut the ring and straighten it. To facilitate this operation, cuts at 2/3 of the cord thickness at the edges every 20-25 cm are necessary. The resulting strips line the track, slightly deepening them in the soil.
For gardeners who are accustomed to working on their knees, two pieces of tires will be a convenient tool (Fig. 4). The same segment with the “handles” cut out in it is a practical bag for carrying carpentry and locksmith tools (Fig. 5).
A piece of tire attached to the wall, a reliable "pocket" for storing flammable liquids (Fig. 6). A bottle or can will never tip over.
Old tire cover comfortable mobile pen for small home animals: chickens, turtles, guinea pigs. From time to time it is not difficult to move it together with the inhabitants to fresh grass.And wooden struts will expand the entrance to the "room" inside the tire, where animals can take refuge from the weather (Fig. 7).
A piece of tire nailed to a horizontal bar will make parking your bike more comfortable (Fig. 8).
Two small tires, laid on top of each other and fastened with wire, are good device for safe splitting of firewood (Fig. 9).
You do not need to hold logs with your hands, firewood does not fly apart, and in case of a miss the ax does not stick into the ground and does not blunt.
Car tire hanging on the wall is also a reliable storage for watering hose (Fig. 10).
Several tires, placed one on top of the other, will serve you as a flower garden or a mini-garden (Fig. 11).
Funny flower bed-turtle of tires (wheels)
To make one crafts we will need: tire, tread (cut into 4 equal parts), a small plastic pipe (neck of a flower bed turtle), newspaper and adhesive tape for the head.
Let's start making crafts from the wheel:
1. In the tire on the sides, make cuts for the paws, insert a pre-cut tread into the holes. A small piece of tread will fit for the tail. All limbs must be secured with brackets made of wire.
2. Now we’ll make a head - we wind a newspaper on a plastic pipe, giving the shape of a neck and a head, and then fix it all with tape. Insert all this construction into the hole (in the tire) and fix it with self-tapping screws.
3. Now you need to paint and draw a turtle face.
And then, only your imagination!
