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.

HaI think she quite likes it secretly. It is, at least, useful to some degree!
In fact, long before Sky+ etc... existed, I'd rigged up a Mythbox in which we could pause live TV, record, rewind etc... She got so used to it that when she was round a friends house, she honestly couldn't understand why they couldn't/wouldn't pause the TV to go for a pee.
My kids have become so used to touching the screen to turn lights on and off that they find it odd when other people's houses don't have the same!
