This is a question DIY Techno-hacks

Old hard drive platters make wonderfully good drinks coasters - they look dead smart and expensive and you've stopped people reading your old data into the bargain.

Have you taped all your remotes together, peep-show-style? Have you wired your doorbell to the toilet? What enterprising DIY have you done with technology?

Extra points for using sellotape rather than solder.

Cruft on the telly
Since several people have posted about burglar alarms with pressure mats, it reminded me of this.

I crufted up the original design for the player mobility stations on top* 1990's TV series Cyberzone using pressure mats from burglar alarms and a number of different lengths of colored wire.

* lie.
