@TheConversationUS There's not enough #copper being recycled! We need to perfect those methods and #LeaveItInTheGround!
Today's kind of pointless project - converting an LED worklight with a non-functional battery to use a tool battery.
18V DC conversion to 9V using a buck converter.
I always think of these great ideas when I am supposed to be doing something else, like cleaning. Or writing reports.

A Young Owl! Trash Art by BORDALO II. The colourful side represents new questions, ideas and solutions

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...
seeing as the world's going down the shitter - anyone got any thoughts/recommendations on best compost toilet builds? wanna build one on my land this year

Positive News
After years of introductions packaging from mushrooms is gaining traction. Without realizing it, many people have already receive products secured during transport by mushrooms.
More and more companies are starting to use mushroom derivatives to replace polystyrene. |
Instead of forever micro-plastics, we now get packaging that composts in weeks.
The video shows some nice examples.
