🧂 Mom genius: how to make the cover of a simple superinstrument Kitchen

All ingenious is simple - this truth once again confirmed through Victoria Sergeevne Lomakina from Kaluga. She sent a very interesting article about how an ordinary tin lid to the editor HouseChief can be turned into an instrument for kitchen. Do not believe me? Enjoy yourself.

Greetings to all readers and readers category "not a woman's business." I want to share a discovery that I have made through the World Wide Web. I tried to make it a life of its own, and seem to be getting!

Just screw cap

I'll start with a little history. In the summer does not pass without a single output gardenAnd garden - no kebabs. I agree, it is not useful, but this much we have in summer mode. And why not? We came here for the weekend, for a day on vegetable garden and house so to turn out that you really really want something in the evening for the soul. Yes, to be honest, the men to the country only barbeque and you can lure.

In addition to the meat very fond of vegetables grill. All that will grow on vegetable garden - served with a barbecue. Potatoes, zucchini, eggplant, bell peppers, tomatoes. Everything is baked, with the smoke - just do not come off. Usually just cut vegetables and lattice-grill bake. On it, unfortunately, not much fits. I saw once at Aliekspress device for cutting vegetables spiral. Ordered more last month, still goes somewhere. Waiting - not a pleasant occupation, so I started looking for a replacement.

It turned out, it is possible to make such rezachok their own hands, with from conventional screw cap. And all that is required for this - a nail or a drill and a sharp knife.

By the way, why screw cap suited for the manufacture of this tool? All the matter in the flanges. They help to firmly hold in their hands the torch for processing vegetables. Conventional flat seaming lid is not so easy to use, its edges will cut the hand.

The first stage - marking. We need to mark two holes.

The first is located exactly in the center of the lid

As you can see - we have formed two neat little holes: one in the center, the other - from the edge of the lid

Now we need the office building or a knife with a sharp tip. You need to connect the two slot holes. And you need to cut the lid from the inside.

Exactly the way you can cut a young zucchini, carrots, eggplant. Can be prepared from the spirals and a separate dish, if you rewind the vegetable spring-loaded long strip of bacon.

Now here I think what I'll do when I get an order from a Chinese store. Probably give it to a neighbor, she liked my dish of spirals. Try it and you make such a device - it's easy!

Thank you Victoria Sergeevnu for such a detailed story and excellent photo! In fact, everything is very simple. And most importantly - this device works! If you are using a home similar devices, write about it in the comments, and even better - send us your photo and description under the heading "not a woman's business."

To supplement this material can be only one more home-made device for the kitchen, which can be useful for those who have cottages near fish ponds:
