  1. It was a banner #TreasureHuntTuesday for bits and bobs. Found a metal plumbing hose to repair my outdoor sink, another Keurig cup drawer that's perfect for holding all my rivets, a roll of upholstery fabric to recover my sofa, a paper towel dispenser for my studio, an extension for my desk, a hanging rack for more books and other handy stuff galore. #reuse #repair #recycle

  6. Here's yet another tech repurposing/recycling post! :neobot_box:

    This USB SD card reader was DIY'd from a component I found in a trashed laptop someone had discarded and left on the side of a bin!

    The laptop's SD reader daughterboard was really just an USB device connected to one of the motherboard's internal USB ports via a ribbon cable. So, after figuring out which pin is which, desoldering that ribbon cable and replacing it with a regular USB one, as one would expect, effectively turned it into an external SD card reader

    At that point all I had to do was to find a case for it: I don't have a 3D printer, but trimming the board slightly and removing the plastic stands made it fit perfectly into this SD card holder, which does the job and is rather small all things considered!

    (And yes, the irony of using an SD card holder as its case isn't lost on me! :neobot_flop_blep: )

  11. This used to be one of those reels that you hang on the wall in the garage and then pull cord out when you need to plug in something. This is the second one that I've killed. This time I've decided to cut the wires off on either end, splice them, and have a spare extension cord. #Reuse #Repair #Recycle

  16. I pulled the papers out of the next half made block. After pressing, I drew seam allowances (with a little helper) on the relevant pieces. Spent the next few days machining sewing in the evenings. Another block completed! Yay!!! #quilt #reuse #recycle #fabric #art #textile

  17. Trudged down to the recycle centre with the old duvet the doggo's been sleeping on, which was fairly manky. "Goes in your black [landfill] bin, love," they said. This seems like a pretty egregious source of pollution #duvet #recycle #landfill Is there no better plan? It's like the vapes all over the roads because there's no place to recycle them… @greenparty_ie

  22. anyone know about the recyclability of shrink wrap?

    am opening a product packaged with shrink wrap right now.

    from a quick check online I see people saying that polyolefin and PVC are common materials (with the latter being more problematic). though this doesn't really tell me where to drop it off if i want to recycle it...

  27. Dites masto, pour un vieux coucou en 32 bit. Intel Atom, ssd en mSata, ddr2 (oui bon...) Vous conseillé quoi comme distro légère ?

    Pas pour aller sur le net, mais plus comme un terminal, prise de note, lecture pdf/ebook ?

    Comme les dernières distro font l'impasse sur le 32 bit, je sais pas trop. Une ancienne distro #mxlinux ? Une #antixlinux ? Une #alpinelinux ? (Me proposez pas #raspbian). Je reste attaché à debian, apt et apt-get...

  40. Found an extremely poorly reupholstered little bench for $2.10. I only care about it's bones because I plan to cover it with leather. Perfect for putting on and taking off boots by the front door. :) #reuse #repurpose #recycle #LeathetCraft
