Grinning idiot wearing arc flash and electrical safety gear is posing in front of a large (1.6m x 1.2m x 1m roughly) Tesla-based battery. The connecting orange busbars look somewhat rib-cage like. It is a thing of beauty to the grinning idiot who built it

650V 135kWh battery built!
Safely.
Our control software works as expected. This project is going to make our client very happy.
Today I like my job.

New carpet in the bedroom. Prints above the bed worked better with the old black-and-white carpet. Did a $20 upgrade with some acrylic paint in order to reuse them and make them more cohesive with the new color. Left one is original - right one is after a light wash of teal color. #ReduceReuse

Lipstick on a Pig - Recycling

You fuckers don't get to feel good about recycling.

Only 9% of U.S. plastic is recycled. Energy costs for sorting/processing are high—often more than new materials. Reusing glass milk jars & ditching paper plates eliminates waste. #Sustainability #ReduceReuse

Did you know Americans spend $2.6 billion on gift wrap every year? And throw most of it away? How crazy is that?! Choose a more sustainable option: Rapt fabric gift wrap that can be used again and again. Easy, elegant, ecofriendly

Want to fight the machine and help the earth and spend less money? BUY USED. Buy used whenever you can. There are a million apps, and thrift stores everywhere. I sell and buy on Mercari with great success.

A four foot tall and six foot long bench is attached to the back of a red shed. Tools are piled on the bench and the pots can just be seen off to one side

An old pallet is collapsing from rot. A line of colorful pots teeter on the brink of falling. Everything is covered in dead leaves and twigs from the winter.

The pallet garden potting table finally died. So I pulled out the plastic lumber offcuts and cedar beams saved from the trash pile when my deck was replaced, and built a new one. Most pieces were exactly the right size and I got to use 3 of the strong ties from my Dad's old stash. #reducereuse

How cute is this little guy. Drafted by one of our sewers and fully completed by them. Recycled zip and scraps of fabric used so a great project to use up bits and bobs

I had the chance to co-lead a 3-day class at the HS where I work. The kids reused & upcycled found or thrifted items, to understand how to reduce waste, value transforming trash to treasure, & explore their creativity. Great week & I got to do projects too! #reducereuse #trashtotreasure #thrifting
