DIY Techno-hacksOld 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.

uhmif I were pushed, I'd say all in (on and off) one man week in labour, and around 300 quids worth of parts, tops - PC, adapter cards, lighting, etc etc
Having all your own woodworking & electrical tools certainly helps keep costs down.
Considered doing this as a business actually as a few people have said they'd buy custom built ones.
