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.

Flag on a phone antenna
My part wasn't technical - I just used a flowerpot, a cuphook and some string.

Thames Water put an empty lamp-post up outside my house, so their water meter could get a cellphone signal. It looked so empty, I had to put a flag on it.

I find it humorously ironic that when viewing your blog, it says 'flag blog' at the top of the page.
