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.

I made
mine IN the garage and it was too big to get out. A proper Frank Spencer job that one was!
I was thinking of dedicating my old xbox to a 'cocktail cabinet' style one, one that might be a little more 'wife-friendly', but true to form, I've pretty much destroyed it by drilling the back out to add USB ports (for a keyboard) and nicking the HDD for another box (I have no idea what has happened to my original 8gb one, so I can't put it back).
