Production process for a replica of a historic firearm
 Čech, Jakub ; Chladil, Josef (referee) ; Kalivoda, Milan (advisor)
This thesis deals with the production of a prototype pistol with a wheel mechanism. In the theoretical part the history is described together with the terminology focused on firearms up to the 17th century. This is followed by a demonstration of the design of the gun in the software version and a demonstration of the machines that were used for the production of the prototype. The practical part describes the production process of some components needed to make the pistol mechanism, together with the overall evaluation of the final product.

History of traditional crafts of the Čestín area and their use in freetime activities today
 HAVRDOVÁ, Markéta
My work deals with the history of recent explotation of handicrafts in the relationship to a countryside and freetime activities. When describing the history of handicrafts and the life in a countryside, I supported my work with information I got from a specific literature. The interviews with the autochthons are used to testify the information about villages in the firsth half of the 20th century, when the handicafts performed an important task in an everyday life. I dedicated most of my attention to basket-making for which there are some more particular information about the history, materials and techniques used when making baskets. In a part of my work, dedicated to the recent use of handicrafts as freetime activities, I speak from my own experience with organising a craftmaking worshops in Čestín. My work reflects a view of one, to whom the traditional handicrafts offer a good way of artistic self-realisation, that helps improving creativity, patience and satisfies one?s intelectual interest about history and tradition, as a counterpart to our modern world.
