Wow. That's really cool work you did, making things better on your own.
We find it very rare nowadays as everything is available in the market and people don't care to repair anything, they just will throw the previous things and replace them with new ones.
I had some chances to visit junkyards and believe me there were things which looked really good but people threw them away.
As far as I am concerned, I do try to save my money as much it is possible but when something is totally useless then I throw it away.
Wasteful assholes.
Saving money is only one of the benefits of recycling/upcycling and repurposing, it feels good, brings satisfaction I guess. It helps the environment a little also.
Yeah. Helping the environment is above all.
By the way that third tag was hilarious 😂
