  2. My 1 bed bachelor pad has a portable aircon, but no window vent dingus, so I’ve decided to make one from wood offcuts and a 3D printed socket for the adaptor at the end of the hose that’s supposed to attach to said dingus.

    I could have bought one from Amazon for $40 delivered but ::waves arms at late stage capitalism::.

    Not just for cost or delivery/fuel waste reasons – this is a continued expression of my addition to the “3/5/x R’s”: ”Adapt”.

    Not only am I utilising offcuts, but also iKEA shelf upright extensions, in a way I can take them apart to return them to original purpose.

    Yes, I hoard offcuts and extras of things like IKEA shelf systems (Gorn and Sten for the win!) – I do that because those trees have already been cut down, and they’re often milled to a “good enough” spec for such projects.

    Offcuts often get used in multiple ways over their life with me. I lament leaving bed slats on hard waste pickup nights! And yes, I have rescued some of those and used them in the past.

    I’m not making much of a difference in the grand scheme of things, but it feels good to be creative in reuse.

    It’s funny, my fave grandparent (Pa) and my second father-in-law (one of nature’s gentlemen), who both lived through the depression (my Pa as an adult and father, my father-in-law as a child) exemplified this ”hoard”/reuse/adapt philosophy as well.

    No real point to this post except to perhaps encourage others to adapt what’s already around them.

    There is a real sense of accomplishment in making something with your own hands which I commend to everyone.
