This is a question DIY Techno-hacks

Old hard drive platters make wonderfully good drinks coasters - they look dead smart and expensive and you've stopped people reading your old data into the bargain.

Have you taped all your remotes together, peep-show-style? Have you wired your doorbell to the toilet? What enterprising DIY have you done with technology?

Extra points for using sellotape rather than solder.

vast majority of it took very little money. USB Relays on ebay at around 30 quid, old PCs, bits and bobs of electronics, Arduino + assocs are around 30-60 quid for all-in packs.
