It wouldn’t hold it, superglue has no sheer strength. If you are pulling directly against it the bond is incredibly strong the best way to break it is by pulling it sideways.
Lowering the tire pressure before applying the plate might increase the contact patch between the glue and the tire. Resulting in superior adhesion across the entire face rather than a circular patch in the middle.
You guys are completely insane! Never in a million years would I have thought of some of the crazy things you guys think up and try. Very impressed at everything your team accomplishes. Keep up the amazing work and stay safe!
I was surprised by the tires not peeling. As for the super glue it can hold up to 1000 lbs per square inch . In sure that lada weights in under 3000 lbs . So say it weighs 3000 lbs technically you would only need 3 square inches of contact for it to lift the car. So they could have used 4 one inch plates and achieved this if they glued it on flat steel surfaces. Still an awesome thing to do hahaha. They should try gluing 2 ladas together and seeing if they can pull themselves apart from a stand still. Then glue 2 ladas roof to roof and see if they can pick them up . That would be cool for a part 2
That stuff is Crazy strong . Hm try glue two cars back to back and then see if you can drive them free . Keep it up guys , in those times we need a lot of fun .
If you ever want to be shocked by how strong CA glue is. But CA glue with spray activator. It's often used in carpentry. Put glue on one side and activator on the other side. Put them together and in 2-3 seconds and its over. Wont move at all.
i remember back in the 90's watching an italian show, they actually lifted a car with 4 sheets of newspapers. each side has only one paper. if you try to strech a paper in a straight parallel way it's so strong. so they put each paper between two iron plates
I was thinking that exact same thing! Glue a mate's car or someone you don't like, to a driveway or just 4 small sheets of steel under all 4 wheels. It'd be like trying to drive with square wheels.
Let's popularize this, and market the LADA as a cool ceiling tile for tall room areas. Try to make a mini submarine from a LADA. A LADA hottub. A stretched LIMOLADA. A double decker LADA. Attach a LADA to a set of pontoons or a boat hull. Use all the metals from a LADA to make your own brand of guitar pedal stomp boxes. Legalize medical mj in Russia too.
No because it’s a carbureted engine and the float in the carburettor would be upside down which would cut the fuel off. If it was EFI (Electronic fuel injection) then yes it would be able to run but not for long because the fuel pick up in the fuel tank would be exposed and not in the fuel but say you got around that, then the oil in the engine becomes the next problem because the oil pick up is in the oil sump to pump the oil through out the engine, so it is now not pumping oil and the crankshaft is no longer being lubricated so it will seize pretty fast after eating up the white metal bearing shells on the crankshaft caps and big ends on the con rods plus the cylinders are no longer getting a supply of oil so will over heat and seize. Hope this answers your question thoroughly and if you have anymore just let me know.
A gasoline car won't run upside down. The pickup in the tank is at the lowest point and will only suck air when upside down. Some offroad guys convert their jeeps to propane because it can run in any orientation.
No wonder super glue never works for me. I have always glued two pieces of the same material. I guess I need to fix broken dishes, buy blending my broken fine china, with a glass plate from the Dollar Store... Really the only think I manage to get glued together is my fingers...
It glues rubber really well, big o-rings come in rolls of round stock and you cut the required lenght and superglue the ends, it works also for small o-rings, if you can't get the proper size you can cut a bigger one, the trick is to cut it square and then align both ends nicely... and you only get one try to get it right ;-) Other materials can be problematic, there is an activator but I've never tried it, baking soda makes it harden instantly and can be used to fill cracks and gaps where aesthetics are not an issue.
Let's build a house from a bunch of car parts, The House of LADA. And then make a yard deck for it entirely from recycled solidbody guitars reshaped to not leave any gaps when they are placed into a deck shape.
For a good couple of decades, a brand of Epoxy Resin used to had a picture on their yellow packaging (was it Loctite?) with a car lifted with a crane by a small 'Glued' patch on the roof, so this would be Super Glues version lol... 👍😏 😎🇬🇧
Glue four tires to four other tires and attach them to two cars, tire to tire. Lift both cars, one attached to the other. Lift from the bumpers of the top car.
If you mix Super Glue with Baking soda, you end up with a super solid mound that is drillable, sandable and fileable. GREAT for filling if done in layers (there's a video on RU-vid where someone made string string guide and guitar nut for a guitar). More uses besides too.... 👍 😎🇬🇧
It is always fun to watch your shows and experiments. Could you try to use the super glue like a head gasket or some else on the engine and see how it holds up.
Great job fellas!!!!! Here's a very weird project. Make a set of railroad wheels and drive on a set of abandoned railroad tracks. Oh if you do this hook up a locomotive horn in the vehicle.
I think that if G54 opened a used car lot you would get the worst best deals in Russia. Yeah, read into that however you want. Dual motor camry or Lada with s#!t glued to it.
It is matter of force by area more than adhesion. Even shiny polished metals can stick together. By the way save those old zikulis because, you can maintain them.
Glue 1 plate to the roof and see what surface area is required to lift it, 3 inch? 9 inch? Or maybe see if you can glue a car to something to stop someone taking it away?
When superglue was first released in Australia that’s how they advertised it, the hooked the car up to a harness and used one drop on the connector plate to the crane. It certainly held and lifted it but off camera to remove the car all they had to do was tap the connection sideways because superglue has no sheer strength.
I’m amazed the car’s suspension held up, since it basically never experiences significant loads in that direction and is therefore very weak. Because Vlada I guess.
Super glue is Crazy 😝. Cyanoacrylate sticks flesh like 😜. Used in Vietnam for triage. I keep it in my my first aid kit, mending and sewing kit, and in my toolbox 🧰
Very impressive! I'm guessing that you must have used the Lada-branded, made in Russia super-glue. The crappy chinese super-glue I have right now would have less than a -7% chance of repeating your success.
