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.

I had a Fiesta on which the throttle cable melted onto the engineand stuck so the car revved uncontrollably on my way home from a night shift. Noisy.
The speedo clock also came loose and the pointer edged higher and higher, insisteng that the ancient vehicle was doing over 100mph and eventually breaking loose and spinning round like a propellor.
Happy days.
