Thought Bubble:
reusing stainless from specific truck salvages to make pins, buttons, toys, fidgets, and other items.

No one with FreeCAD, CNC (or machine shop access) or a hydrolic press from harbor frieght could ever possibly make a die and stamp set to make very clever symbols with all of that stainless.
It's as if we AREN'T the means of production.

Gosh stop trying so hard.

Over past couple of months I’ve found 2 different Kärcher pressure washers by the communal bins at the end of my road. As it was a lovely afternoon decided to check them out and see what works. Just need to order a replacement hose off eBay for £15, use the wand off one and the body of the other and I’ve got myself a £100 pressure washer. Result. #BinRaiding #Reuse

Reuse, Repair, Recycle

‘Repair’ workshops are not just effective, they change the way people think about what they have and what they might buy. Having volunteered a day a month over 4 years I also understand the satisfactiongives. Not to mention making some things economically viable for those who don't have the ‘luxury' of dump and repurchase and encouraging manufacturers to reform.
