Art/D.I.Y/Build projects thread..?

[Garrett]

Any interest here for something like this..?

I'm a complete novice when it comes to D.I.Y & making stuff, but I'll give it a go..  I've a few ideas that I hope to complete soon (see my other recent threads) & will post my exploits & 'finished' projects here if anyone is interested.

Was thinking that others who have done some cool stuff may like to share (& inspire perhaps) 

Instructables is a great site, I'm not brave (rich) enough to tackle most of the projects that interest me there, but it's handy for ideas nonetheless.

I like the site for make magazine.. but mostly I just build electronic kits  (or something I see in QST magazine)

Instructables is awesome, I use it to find cheaper ways of getting tools I need sometimes.  I make knives and swords.

 

[T.T.]

What kind of swords do you make?

Anyone like the look of this computer keyboard wallet..

And I only have cherry and alps keyboards left (and one mini membrane cherry keyboard to be fair, but you'll disassemble that from my cold, dead hands)

Decent, I might try one myself.


I have one of these, but its only good for holding cards, not really notes

Yeah, that's the problem with all the kickstarter wallets I've seen over the years. Fine for US money, but present it with a UK 20-pound note and you're stuffed.
