I have been thinking about this for a while with the following personal thoughts that hopefully will encompass others that have been thinking along the same lines:

The usual general tips & tricks

DIY safety tips

DIY budget tips

DIY getting started

DIY repairs (mainly consumer products)

Domestic appliance tips

Tips on how to manage the boss lady 🙂

Smart Home stuff (lots of that)

Projects with features that also cope with ageing/disability

Repurposing ideas (don't throw that out)

Other uses for a particular product or item

My workshop, what I do/how it's setup.

I will kick-off with a few example posts.

Cheers

Plasterboard fasteners-

Below is my favourite one and for some reason is not well known.

Macsim Anka Plugs

(Note that image is not from the Bunnings website)

I have asked a question about that and @MitchellMc responded with this:

'As Macsim is one of our suppliers we can place a Special Order for them in the store if anyone is interested'.

That is good news because I am thinking other DIY'ers here would like to add that to their kit.

I'll be back with a tip about how to use that...

Mailbox Delivery System-

Although mailbox alarms are available I decided to make make my own system with a real Ozzie flag 🙂

Interesting... my system is the opposite to the U.S. Postal Service where the flag indicates USPS carrier mail pickup.

This is just a overview with random work-in-progress photos.

  

  

  

  

  

   

    

Back tomorrow to finish...
