Happy to boost - it's definitely an area worth studying.
Have you published anything (formal or not) about "Repair Cafes" and other popular movements to reduce e-waste / re-use "obsolete" electronics?

Today on #TreasureHuntTuesday I found storage. Found a square rolling cart with a large central cavity and lots of pockets that fits all my bookbinding supplies so I can wheel it out of my studio until I need it. Also found three plastic sets of drawers for $4 US each: perfect for out-of-sight basement storage. I also found a set of shelves to hold machines I rarely use until I need them. This freed up space I can use for everyday purposes in my studio. #reuse #repurpose #thrift

If you are in the #Regina #SK area, there is a Repair Cafe happening this coming Saturday (16 May), located in the George Bothwell library in the Southland Mall.
This one is a bit special: it's part of a larger event that's happening, the Climate Expo. There are a bunch of other things going on as part of it, but one is that Bike Regina will also be there, fixing and tuning up bicycles.
I'll be there, fixing electronics, small appliances, and random other things, but I'm just a volunteer, not an organizer or official spokesperson. There will be the usual array of other fixers repairing sewing, knitting, game consoles and controllers, jewellery, and other things.
There's also going to be a teardown table for the kids to have fun with ripping stuff apart to see what makes it tick.
So come give your stuff a second lease on life. Keep it out of the landfill, and as a bonus, stick it to the manufacturer that made it just good enough so that it died right after the warranty expired 😜 .
Walk-ins are welcome, but you can also book a spot in advance here:

I also found a folding bookcase, something I've been searching for for a while. One of the brackets to hold a shelf up was missing, with a screw in its place. In my mixed hardware bin I found a similar bracket normally used for mounting curtain rods. I cut a piece off the bracket to make it more suitable for this new purpose and it works a treat. Now the bookcase is renewed and sturdy. #reuse #renew #repurpose #vintage

Microwave technique recovers 87% of batteries' #lithium in 15 minutes
By Michael Franco
July 30, 2024Excerpt: "Normally a compound needs to be heated in order to force metals to precipitate out and in the case of lithium-containing compounds, an oil bath usually provides that heat source. But the process takes a fair bit of time during which the lithium compounds can begin to degrade.
"To speed things up, the Rice team decided to give microwaves a try, knowing that the choline chloride that leads to the isolation of the lithium is very good at absorbing microwave radiation.
"The speed boost was impressive. The researchers were able to precipitate out the lithium almost 100 times faster than an oil bath. In fact, it took them just 15 minutes to get back 87% of the lithium – a process that would take 12 hours using an oil bath.
" 'This allowed us to leach lithium selectively over other metals,' said Sohini Bhattacharyya, one of the other lead authors and a postdoctoral fellow in the Nanomaterials Laboratory. 'Using microwave radiation for this process is akin to how a kitchen microwave heats food quickly. The energy is transferred directly to the molecules, making the reaction occur much faster than conventional heating methods.'
"The researchers say the method can also be tailored to target other elements by tuning the DES composition, so it could have the ability to recover other metals like cobalt or nickel from batteries. The team also highlights the eco-friendly benefits of its approach.
" 'This method not only enhances the recovery rate but also minimizes environmental impact, which makes it a promising step toward deploying DES-based recycling systems at scale for selective metal recovery,' said Pulickel Ajayan, the corresponding author on the study and department chair of materials science and nanoengineering."

Are you in the North Bay area and into reuse and up-cycling, especially textiles? Come visit me at the Reuse Hub in Petaluma Saturday April 11th from 5pm-7pm. I'll be one of the local artists demonstrating ways to repurpose fabric scraps at the Reuse Hub's Half Birthday Party https://www.reusealliance.org/events/reuse-hub-half-birthday
My demo will be English Paper Piecing, a very satisfying way to make small scraps into a bigger cloth using tessellating shapes!

Another banner #TreasureHuntTuesday. A few things I got were new (bread slicer, yet another cocktail smoker, a cold brew coffee maker) but also found some good Pyrex, metal pans that fit my air fryer, quirky coffee mugs and some nice glassware. I'll probably make a leather case for the smoker and offer it at my next crafts fair. #reuse #repurpose #thrift

Just returning from #volunteering at our local Repair Cafe. For $REASONS, they didn't have one in January or February, so I was kind of missing it.
Good turnout, though there weren't many who booked a slot in advance - just a lot of walk-ins. Everyone got seen. I worked on the usual small appliances, had a peek at a sewing machine, and oddly enough, a shoe/boot. Now I'm a cobbler, apparently?
Helping people feels good. Saving stuff from the landfill feels good. Saving money for people who can't really afford repairs and definitely can't just buy a new $SOMETHING feels good. If you enjoy fixing things - from sewing/garment repair to bicycles to computers to anything else - maybe look for a Repair Cafe in your city. I'm sure they'd love your help.
But I haven't been in the middle of that much people noise in months - maybe years. Decompressing...

I bought this amazing quilt at Cambridge Antiques Market. I want to make a quilt coat but I Feel Bad about cutting up someone’s work (yes I know this is complicated). This, however, is the perfect amount of fucky for me to feel like this is collaboration and completion - the person hand stitched the binding (!) but then only hand-sewed one set of cherry leaves before giving up entirely, and the rest are just stuck on (barely, in many places). So it’s just undone enough for me to not feel guilty about transforming it.

#SodiumIonBatteries offer an alternative to tricky #lithium
Oct 26th 2023
Excerpt: "Fortunately, lithium is not the only game in town. As we report this week, a clutch of firms are making batteries based on sodium, lithium’s elemental cousin. Since sodium’s chemical properties are very similar to those of lithium, it too makes for good batteries. And sodium, which is found in the salt in #seawater, is thousands of times more abundant on Earth than lithium and cheaper to get at. Most of the companies using sodium to make batteries today are also Chinese. But pursuing the technology in the West might be a surer route to energy security than relying heavily on lithium.
"Besides its abundance, sodium has other advantages. The best lithium batteries use #cobalt and #nickel in their electrodes. Nickel, like lithium, is in short supply. #Mining it on land is #EnvironmentallyDestructive. Proposals to grab it from the #seabed instead have caused rows. A good deal of the world’s cobalt, meanwhile, is extracted from small mines in the #DemocraticRepublicOfCongo, where #ChildLabour is common and working conditions are dire. Sodium batteries, by contrast, can use #electrodes built from #iron and #manganese [and wood #lignin], which are plentiful and uncontroversial. Since the chemical components are cheap, a scaled-up industry should be able to produce batteries that cost less than their lithium counterparts.
"Sodium is not a perfect replacement for lithium. It is heavier, meaning sodium batteries will weigh more than lithium ones of an equivalent capacity. That is likely to rule them out in some cases where lightness is paramount. But for other applications, such as #GridStorage or #HomeBatteries, weight is irrelevant. Several Chinese carmakers are even beginning to put sodium batteries in #ElectricVehicles."

Fast-charging #SodiumIon battery uses anodes made from trees
By C.C. Weiss
June 09, 2024"A month after #NatronEnergy began its first-of-kind sodium-ion battery mass production, Swedish sodium-ion developer #Altris has identified a means of making the LithiumFree batteries even more sustainable. Together with partner #StoraEnso, it's adapting tree pulp-sourced carbon toward use as an anode material.
"A byproduct of wood pulp manufacturing, #lignin has long been investigated for possible use as a more sustainable electrode material. Finnish renewable materials company Stora Enso made headlines in 2022 when it partnered up with Swedish battery manufacturer #Northvolt toward using its proprietary #Lignode material in lithium-ion battery anodes. Stora Enso describes Lignode as a hard carbon material refined from lignin.
"By teaming with Altris, Stora Enso looks to go even more sustainable while further localizing the European battery supply chain. As we looked at when Natron Energy kicked off production a few weeks ago, sodium-ion batteries eliminate the need for rare minerals like lithium, cobalt and nickel, relying on abundant sodium that can be sourced locally without harmful #mining.

Mrigakshi Dixit
Feb 20, 2026 06:59 AM EST"A new sustainable method turns discarded #MobilePhoneBatteries and industrial lignin into a powerhouse material for #SodiumIon batteries.
"It is a stunning example of circular economy innovation. Rather than letting these materials sit in #landfills or go up in smoke, the team from China is giving the waste a high-tech second life.
"When tested as a sodium-ion battery anode, this composite of #nickel-#cobalt sulfides and #lignin-derived carbon delivered electrochemical results."

While out and about yesterday, I stopped at Aldi for essentials and picked up a pineapple while I was there. Then, at Goodwill, there was a pineapple corer/slicer, brand new, still wrapped, in the box. I figured this was a sign so I bought it.
It's hard to express just how handy that thing is. It stripped that fruit of its pineappley goodness in mere minutes. Totally worth the $3.20 US it cost me. #thrift #reuse #recycle #grateful #PineappleInTheDehydrator -
My bread machine hurled itself off my kitchen counter a few years ago. I haven't missed it much except it was very good for making dough. Today I bought a used one, in excellent condition, at the thrift store for $6.29 US. A baking blogger was kind enough to provide the user's manual on their site. I figured I could use this bread maker until I find something better but the more I read, the more I like it. It's smaller and more efficient than the model it replaced. #grateful #thrift #reuse

There's apparently not going to be a Repair Cafe in my town this month. I look forward to them, so this is a slight bummer.
To cheer myself up tonight, I spent half an hour replacing the corroded battery spring contacts in a $2 kitchen timer, and cleaned up some crappy wiring and soldering inside it while I was in there. Felt productive. Yes, I could have replaced it for $2 - but I like the feeling I get from keeping it out of the landfill and fulfilling a useful purpose.
Your city may have a Repair Cafe, too.
