How to make a mini submarine with your own hands. Homemade submarine. What to make a propeller shaft

If you and your children love to craft, then especially for you we offer a great idea for children's creativity: make rare view military equipment - a submarine quickly and easily with your own hands. Having learned how to make such a specialized vehicle, the kids will be able to give them to dads and grandfathers on February 23. Or just play with such unusual and unique toys that you can’t find on the store shelves.

How to make a submarine with your own hands using the origami technique

For those who like to fold paper using the origami technique, we suggest making a small submarine with a periscope and a propeller in the tail section with your own hands. This submarine looks like a toy model. Collecting it is difficult, but possible. To do this, take a square sheet of colored paper and fold our model according to the diagram below.

Good luck in studying the scheme and folding the submarine.

To create such a craft, we need the following materials:

  • 3 cardboard sleeves (you can take from toilet paper rolls or make your own).
  • Napkins.
  • A straw for a cocktail.
  • Colored paper.
  • Glue.
  • Scissors.
  • Stationery knife.

Let's get to work.

  1. We unfold the first sleeve, glue it front side colored paper (in our case, we used orange).
  2. We cut 3 holes in the first sleeve: two of them are smaller - at the same level, the third hole is larger, just below two. The third hole should match the diameter of the hole in the second bushing.
  3. Glue the second sleeve with blue paper. Cut out in the center round hole, coinciding in diameter with a large hole in the first sleeve. To make the holes even, use a clerical knife.
  4. We insert the second (blue) sleeve into the first - orange. We combine large slots with each other. We got the hull of a submarine.
  5. Next, insert the third sleeve, cut in half, into this large slot. This sleeve will act as the hatch of the boat. We fix with glue in the sleeve a straw for a cocktail - the periscope of our submarine.
  6. We wrap napkins in a blue sheet of colored paper. We form two convolutions, the thickness of which coincides with the diameter of the boat hull. Cut out the tail of the submarine from orange paper and glue it to one of the bundles.
  7. We insert the bundles into the hull of the submarine.

Our submarine is ready!

Let's analyze another option from a bottle and from plain paper

A very simple craft that can be made at any time from such materials at hand:

  • Papers.
  • Plastic bottle.

Print out the submarine on a sheet of paper.

We glue photos of family members into the round windows, or draw little men - the passengers of our submarine.

We insert this picture with photographs or drawings into a plastic bottle.

Our boat is ready. We are sure that your child will like it. In addition, its advantage is that you can play with this boat in the water. Water procedures with such a unique toy will become even more exciting.

This craft will appeal to young children, especially boys. To create it, let's prepare:

  • Thick paper.
  • Scissors.
  • Ruler.
  • Markers or pencils.
  • Glue.

Working process:

  1. We cut out a sheet of paper 12x15 cm. We make two cuts on it, 4 cm each. One on top, the other in the middle of the sheet.
  2. At the level of the lower notch, draw a submarine and a water surface.
  3. We cut a strip 3 cm wide and 4 cm longer than our sheet. Draw a periscope at the bottom. We glue paper 5 cm long to the strip below so that the periscope does not stretch out of the incision.
  4. We skip the strip through the incisions. Pull on the top end to raise the periscope.

Like this interesting craft ready for the little ones.

Let's make a submarine with our own hands from crackers and improvised materials

What gift for Defender of the Fatherland Day could be better than a do-it-yourself submarine model? Now we will tell you how you can make a model of a submarine from the simplest materials at hand.

For work we need:

  • The case from the big cracker.
  • Plastic ball, suitable for the diameter of the clapperboard.
  • Flat cap deodorant.
  • Cardboard.
  • 1 preservation lid.
  • Matches.
  • Cotton buds.
  • Scissors.
  • Glue.
  • Awl.
  • Spray paint (black).

Working process:

  1. We take a cracker. She will be the hull of our boat. We cut a hole in the middle of the cracker into which we insert the cap from the deodorant. This will be the cabin of the boat.
  2. We make a cardboard cone and glue it to the tail.
  3. We cut out the rudders, nose and tail rudders from cardboard.
  4. We fix the steering wheels by gluing them to the body or inserting them into special slots for them.
  5. We cut out the screw from the lid for preservation with scissors for cutting. We bend the propeller blades, make a hole in its center with an awl, and fix the propeller with a match to the tail section.
  6. We make the nose part - we put the ball into the body of the cracker and fasten it tightly. We glue the bow rudders, stepping back a little from the bow.
  7. We pierce 2 holes in the roof of the cabin with a hot awl, insert the antenna and the periscope, using the rod of a cotton swab for this.
  8. We paint our boat using paint in a spray can.

Our submarine is ready! If desired, you can write the tail number using a corrector.

Video on the topic of the article

We believe it will be interesting and useful for you to watch the video we have prepared on the manufacture of a submarine. Happy viewing!

The large diesel-electric submarine B-396 "Novosibirsky Komsomolets" of project 641B (code "Som", according to NATO classification - Tango) belongs to the boats of the 2nd generation, designed at TsKB-18, now TsKB MT "Rubin", chief designer project - Z.A. Deribin, since 1974 - Yu.N. Kormilitsyn.
The submarine was laid down in 1979 in Nizhny Novgorod (at that time - the city of Gorky) at the Krasnoye Sormovo plant.

From 1980 to 1998, the submarine carried out combat service as part of the squadron of the Northern Fleet, performed tasks in the Atlantic Ocean off the western coast of Africa, in the Mediterranean Sea, carried out combat patrols to protect the state border in the Barents Sea.
In 1998, the B-396 submarine was decommissioned and withdrawn from the Russian Navy. On October 20, 2000, it was delivered from the city of Polyarny to the city of Severodvinsk to the Northern Machine-Building Enterprise, in April 2001 it was lifted onto a slipway and then transferred to a workshop for conversion into a museum.
On July 4, 2003, the submarine-museum was launched into the water in a festive atmosphere. At the end of August, the ship set off on its last voyage along the Severodvinsk-Moscow route. Having passed the White Sea, the White Sea-Baltic Canal, Lake Onega, the Volga-Baltic Canal, the Rybinsk Reservoir, the Moscow Canal, the submarine arrived in Moscow.
Now the Museum and Memorial Complex of the History of the Russian Navy, located on the Khimki Reservoir in the Severnoye Tushino Park, has become the place of its permanent parking.
The entrance to the submarine in the museum version is carried out from the starboard side through a specially equipped vestibule.

Before the conversion, the crew entered through the hatch.

The first compartment contains 533 mm bow torpedo tubes. On the right is a torpedo screw, on the left - torpedoes before loading into a torpedo tube.

If necessary, the crew could leave the submarine through the torpedo tubes, which served as airlocks. To perform work overboard or emergency ascent, there were sets of SSP-K1 submariner equipment on board, consisting of an insulating respiratory apparatus(rebreather) IDA-59 and diving suit SGP-K, in addition, to ensure ascent from great depths (up to 220 m), the kit included a DGB cylinder with helium (in the composition of respiratory mixtures for deep diving, air is replaced by a helium-oxygen mixture, which makes it possible avoid nitrogen intoxication and reduce the risk of decompression sickness).

There are changes in the interior of the submarine, in particular, openings are equipped in the sealed bulkheads between the compartments of the boat for the unhindered movement of visitors. During the period of combat service, crew members moved between compartments through hatches.

Galley. Soviet submariners at sea were supposed to have three meals a day: breakfast (also called morning tea), lunch and dinner. The first meal of the day was the lightest of all. Mandatory elements of breakfast were tea with sugar and white bread with butter. The most abundant was the second meal of the day. The traditional first course was navy borscht with fresh cabbage, soups were also prepared - bean, potato and rice. The main dishes were various canned meats with a side dish of rice, buckwheat porridge, beans or mashed potatoes. The third dish was naval compote, which was sometimes replaced with cocoa or jelly. In autonomous navigation, dry red wine was served without fail for dinner, as a rule, from the Cabernet Sauvignon grape variety, 50 ml per crew member. For dinner, as a rule, there was boiled or fried potatoes, buckwheat porridge, beans with pickled herring, canned fish or meat, cocoa with cookies.

Kubrick is equipped in the aft compartment. In their free time, the sailors could watch a movie.



The submarine is installed on an underwater hydraulic base, the ship is raised by 4 meters, which made the propeller-steering complex open for viewing.

The submarine carries the guis of the Russian Navy.

There is a site dedicated to the work of William Wardrop (William Wardrop), which is called - Stream Noir.
William collects cardboard models on your own, according to its technology.

After decades of extensive research into the history, concepts of military technology and classical literature He applied his modeling knowledge to create unique 3D examples of many types of innovative and eccentric vehicles of the 18th, 19th and early 20th centuries.
This exhibition is a prime example of how vehicles Victorian era based on steam technology have been catching up with science fiction to create technical marvels that have changed civilization and pushed us into the modern age.

Nautilus Jules Verne (The Jules Verne Nautilus)

This model was developed from Jules Verne's descriptions and original illustrations for his 1870 novel Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea. Although this model looks less elegant than the Nautilus that Hollywood came up with, it is built in accordance with the first real submarines.

In this image, Professor Aronnex can be seen arguing with Captain Nemo about the fate of mankind.

Gustave Zede

Gustav Zed was a big step forward in the development of French submarines, but not very successful. She carried two torpedoes on drop rings, which made them vulnerable while the submarine was in the docks. She also didn't hold depth well, and it eventually took three sets of floatplanes to help this design error. Gustav Zed was 48.5 m (159 ft) long, 3 m (10 ft) in diameter and had a 208 horsepower engine.

Pioneer (The Pioneer)

Built in Mobile Bay by C.L. Hunley before CSS Hunley was built, this vessel was a prototype and was never used. His armament was a mine, which was released behind the submarine and pulled on a cable until it found its target, from the collision with which it exploded. The main problem with this system was the possibility of winding the cable around the screw.
The pioneer was captured by the Union Army in 1863 and exhibited in the Washington Navy Yard until it was sold for scrap in 1867.

American Diver (The American Diver)

Built by C.L. Hunley after Pioneer. An American diver, or Pioneer 2 as it is sometimes known, sank in Mobile Bay while being towed to launch an attack on the Union fleet. The three-man crew was extremely small, and the submarine was not able to fight the tide. Descriptions of this submarine appeared in the newspapers of France, Jules Verne may have seen this description and included many of the American Diver's unique attributes in the Nautilus, such as double cabins.

Nautilus Harper Golf (The Harper Golf Nautilus)

Designed for Disney's 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, original model was created by Harper Golf to create a more Victorian style, as well as individual elements that make it more similar to sea ​​monsters. And although hydrodynamic tests proved that the submarine would be reliable, a full-size working model was never created.
The giant squid attacking this model of Nightloos is over a meter (three feet) long and was made entirely from pipe cleaners by Laura Butler.

The Alligator (Naval Institute Press Version)

This is a prime example of why you should always find as many references as you can find before jumping in and building a model. The alligator shown here is what I saw in the book "American Submarines Before 1945" from the Naval Press Institute. I said, "Cool!" and went to work. It took 26 hours to build and paint the model. I was pleased with the result and chalked up another historic submarine to my collection. However, two days after I put the model on the rack, I read on a news site that the original plans for Brutus de Villeroy had been found in Paris, France. One glance was enough to understand that my model looked completely different from original projects. It turns out that N.I.P.'s schemes are guesswork and have never been tested!

The Garrett Nordenfeldt 1886

Following the "success" of George William's Littler Garrett with the first Resurgam steam-powered submarine, in 1879 he was commissioned by the Turkish government to build two submarines in 1886. They were built and sent disassembled to Constantinople, where they were assembled. The first sank almost immediately after launch, and, oddly enough, no more crew could be found for the submarines. They stood in dry dock until 1914, when they were blown up by the German army to avoid a threat to the safety of the population.

Seal (The Seal)

Originally launched in a Virginia shipyard in 1911 as the Seal. This submarine was renamed G-1 when she was assigned to the U.S.N. in 1912. After a long journey as a test and training ship, she was decommissioned in 1920 and later used for depth charge tests in 1921.

Welman - a two-man World War II submarine powered by a gasoline engine that lacked proper ventilation and caused many deaths due to poisoning carbon monoxide. Torpedoes were too small to be a real threat to the warships of that era and had a limited range. The submarine featured a double hatch and general design, which had a significant impact on the development of submarines of that period.

Dupuy de Lome

Named after the famous architect of armored warships, the French submarine was launched in 1915 and scrapped in 1935.

Ictineo II (Greek for fishing boat)

In 1864, in Barcelona harbor, Narcis Monturiol launched the Ictineo II: the world's first real submarine. She was over 17 meters long, displaced 72 tons and had a working depth of up to 30 meters. What made this submarine so unusual was its steam engine on a chemical basis. The engine needed fuel rods, much like the uranium rods in a reactor, but using a chemical reaction to heat the water in the boiler, at the same time the reaction produced pure oxygen for the crew! The hull was made from olive wood to reduce the cost of the prototype, but an all-metal boat, the Ictineo III, was also planned. The time spent under water, without lack of oxygen, was 8 hours! The only limitation was the number of fuel rods. The Ictineo III could have pushed submarine technology to the next level, but Monteriol's funding ran out and his submarine was broken up and sold for scrap.

Following the precepts of the program "Crazy Hands", the DaVinci Learning channel told us how, from improvised materials, for the most part plastic bottles, make a working model of a submarine. It operates in the sense that it can float and sink not at random, but at our request.

So, what you need to work:

« » on Yandex.Photos

Two bottles, large and small, balloon, hose, rubber ring and electrical tape. If you tear the tape with your teeth, then a knife is not needed.

In a small bottle, you need to make many holes, with a diameter of 3-4 mm. I pierced with a nail heated on gas. I must say right away that more was needed - both in diameter and in quantity. But it worked out well too:


« » on Yandex.Photos

Make a hole for the hose in the cork of a small bottle:


« » on Yandex.Photos

Insert the hose and attach the balloon to it. I actually wanted to tape it with electrical tape, but my son insisted on an elastic band, so that "like on TV." Well, with an elastic band, so with an elastic band:


« » on Yandex.Photos

After that, push the ball into the bottle, tighten the cork and secure the hose. Again, I wanted duct tape, but my son again insisted on the option "from the TV", and covered it up with plasticine:


« » on Yandex.Photos

Now it remains only to connect both bottles with electrical tape (like on TV, yea!) And the submarine is almost ready:


« » on Yandex.Photos

The only problem is that this design categorically does not want to sink without ballast. And this is already some kind of garbage turns out, not a submarine. Just filling a large bottle with water is also not enough - it still floats. Some beautiful sand was poured inside the transmission, but the sand that I managed to find did not want to pour through the funnel. So I threw all sorts of rusty bolts and nuts into the bottle. Well, he poured water. By the way, it is convenient to regulate buoyancy with water, because it would be much more inconvenient to pour sand back.

Alright, now for the sea trials.

We got a strong trim to the stern, because the bolts and nuts, such infections, fall off in one direction, at least shake them. But in principle - it turned out :-)

Do-it-yourself submarine, military-themed craft

The active development of underwater shipbuilding can be attributed to the 17th century, although the idea itself is rooted in ancient times. William Bowry, Cornelius van Drebbel, Robert Fulton proposed new projects for a submarine, tested it and modified it. In practice, the first boats were used by the Americans during civil war at the end of the 18th century. After only two centuries, submarines began to be introduced into the navies of many countries and played an important role in wars, as well as during the exploration of the deep sea. We invite you to make an original do-it-yourself submarine.

Materials for crafts - submarine:

- cardboard;
- match;
- glue;
- awl;
- cotton swab;
- can of black paint
- a can of beer;
- scissors;
- a plastic ball;
- cracker;
- Rectangular antiperspirant cap.

1) Empty the contents of the cracker. Circle the antiperspirant cap on the surface of the cracker and cut a hole. Glue the cap to the cracker and you will have a felling. You can make holes in the cap with an awl and insert an antenna or a periscope, which are easy to construct from cotton swabs.

2) You need to make a cone out of cardboard so that its base is equal to the diameter of the cracker. This cone will become the stern of our submarine.

3) Cut out the blades for the stern from cardboard, which will act as rudders, as well as bow and stern rudders.



4) Glue the cardboard parts on the cone, you can make slots so that the parts hold more securely. Bow rudders are glued to the bow of the boat.

5) Cut out a 6-blade propeller from a tin can and bend them slightly. Make a hole in the center and insert a match into it. Attach the screw to the stern.

6) Now left ready product paint. It is very convenient to use an aerosol can, but acrylic paints are also suitable. The submarine looks original in black, but you can make it gray or green.

7) Draw the tail number in white acrylic paint or corrector. You can also print or cut out the numbers. If you want to give someone a submarine, you can also draw or paste the name of the future owner of the submarine as well as the tail number.
