Bodge JobsIf you can't fix it with a hammer and a roll of duck tape, it's not worth fixing at all, my old mate said minutes before that nasty business with the hammer and a roll of duck tape. Tell us of McGyver-like repairs and whether they were a brilliant success or a health and safety nightmare.

I oncemade my own DVI adapter by cutting the end off an old VGA cable, soldering the pins from an old serial cable on the ends, poking them into the DVI output, and sticking a big blob of araldite over them to hold them in place.
This was in the days and in a country where DVI was pretty much non-existant.
It worked pretty well for about 2 years. Took fucking ages to find the pinouts in the first place though.
