More and more often decorative mills become decorating the garden, and in the garden they are very original.
Therefore, many gardeners want to build something similar on their site. Each mill has its own unique design. However, there is one general principle of construction. So, to build an ordinary or water mill with your own hands, it will require building materials. Consider what the garden for the garden is with your own hands.
How to make a garden mill
For construction, the boards remaining after the construction of the fence, the stones and also different decor elements. And if you want to build a water mill, then you can’t do without a cement mortar and pump. Consider a few options made by your own hands.
DIY stone mill
The first step to create such a mill is to dig a pit for the foundation, 25 cm deep and 100 cm with a diameter.
The second stage is the pouring of the foundation cement.
The third step is the frame. Any unnecessary material is suitable for creating a cone -shaped structure. For example, you can take the old pelvis of copper, turn it over, put a disk from the wheel of the car on the basin, and the ending of the pyramid is an inverted plastic bucket.
Then the monastery of this frame is hung with stones and fasten with cement mortar. It is better to make the mixture in a proportion of 1: 5 so that the stones hold and cover the frame. Then in the plastic bucket you need to drill a hole. A metal pipe is inserted into the resulting hole, to which the wings are attached. After that, the bucket is covered with stones to the bottom. The bottom remains open.
The end is the installation of wings on the pipe. The wings for the mill are made of wood, then painted or installed on a metal pipe.
We make a water mill from improvised materials
To make a water mill, you need a wire bay, a transitional mechanism from an old grinder, an ordinary pump, a hose, several parts of the blinds, straw and reeds, water supply adapters, sealants and fittings.
We take a metal box in which the pump is fixed. The wheel turns the propeller screw from the old grinder (the wheel is made from the wire bay). Water circulates in a closed circle. The walls on the sides are made of reeds, which is covered with straw. The mill screw is made of parts of the blinds.
Additional scenery in this design can be finished any.
