    Default DIY Upcycling - Show me your contraptions!!

    I love reusing old stuff where I can, stoner engineering is some of the finest in the world

    Share your contraptions/ideas and lets see your creative sides.

    Here's my drain table/pot stand made from an old dog crate, zipties and tent poles.



    After the harvest I hung it from rope ratchets and used it to hang dry from

    I also use a valeters grit guard ziptied to my middle tent pole to force the tent sides out instead of sucking in can just see it poking out the side of the opening above

    My feed buckets are too big for the sink so use this to fill them on the floor. Five litre bottle and some old tube, turn on the tap and let gravity do the rest

    Nice one, those 5L bottles can be cut into compost scoops too as another use 4pint milk jugs work better for that tho as the handle is on the side.

    Cheers Ice, I use 25L plasterer buckets for feed and they are way too big for the sink. I'm far to lazy to carry em to the outside tap Infact I think most of my ideas are born from ways to be lazier It's my inner sloth channeling through

    Who says laziness can't create positive stuff hey lol

    I have a massive yellow bucket which JUST about fits into my sink, but I usually use a 5L jug to fill it up..we all get around it in some way or other.

    Some up-cycled blue pickle tubs from when I made my RDWC system now cut down and turned into a recirculating system with some rhizo stands stuck on top I had in the shed from when I first started coco drain to waste.
