    We DIYers are a dying breed in this materialistic world (or maybe youtube is bringing it back). In any case, I know we love to share the things we made (or fixed) instead of just buying new. So do it here!

    I just finished making a tooth out of silver. I used to have a plastic 'partial' (fake tooth on a retainer) but i lost it in the trash at Carls Jr some years ago and have just been 'rednecking' it ever since. But I just cast a new one out of silver and it works! I have a tooth now, and no dentist fees :)

    Yay for amateur home dentistry.

    Right now I'm in the process of redoing my brother's kitchen. He said "this contractor only wants 12K for this project" then I said "I'll do it for free". Knocked the walls down, removed the island. In the process of re-tiling. Granite counter tops are on the way, and I've done all the millwork for the spot I picked out for the new fridge.
