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.

Oh, where do I start?
Well, just this morning I fixed a phone that had been dropped in water, dried, and now was constantly vibrating. I hacksawed the vibration motor out. I knew exactly where to cut because I used to have the same phone. I was mugged by a wave last New Year's Eve, and it washed up this year to provide one last service: blueprints, extracted at hammertime.
I'll post yesterday's DVD player antics tomorrow.
