I think someone (or maybe me) has already posted something from Instructables, but I was having a look at the site after a friend posted a pic of a project on FB.

The site has DIY (do it yourself) instructions on a truckload of things, and tons of categories to pretty much make anyone salivate. Well, anyone who like to work on projects that is.

There's even a STEAMPUNK category!

Like, just how cool are these?

And a channel for Arduino:

Or build an aquaponic veggie fish farm:

Way too many wicked projects there! :)

Just a reminder  :huh:

Instructables is alive and well and better than ever... :P

I've got a backlog of projects that shouldn't take much over 30 years to clear up  :D
