DIY and repurpose rather than buying new

This is a good thread.

I started one on repairs.

Repairs - the thread where we fix things

Bringing this thread back. I just fixed our cantilever umbrella thanks to a series of youtube videos [$2 repair! DIY - Fix restring offset / overhanging umbrella using parachute cord!] [$2 repair! (Gear Assembly) Part 2 -Fix restring offset / overhanging umbrella using parachute cord!] [How to Replace a Cord on a Crank Umbrella - Fiberbuilt Umbrellas & Cushions] Incredibly satisfying to get the parts and do the job instead of just throwing something away.
