Agreed- bricolage is an honorable & highly useful art!

However, the halfwit who set up the Wading Pool of Electrocution here is a not a bricoleur, just a dumbass.

Don't even know why the faucet pliers made the list... I've seen those things used as replacement handles, etc. more times than I can remember. Back in the days when TVs had easily-lost rotary channel & volume controls, they were a fixture in many living rooms (yes, back in the dark ages when you actually had to stand up and walk across the room to change channels)!

I ran out of pages too fast. :( But it did entertain me for like half an hour.

I did too, dang it, I need amusement at work.

In the neighborhood me and Confess come from - we've seen people put wooden planks on their cars as a bumper heh.

Lots of people. lol

I saw a guy that had plywood screwed to his roof to cover his broken sunroof today. I tried to take a pic but it wouldn't come out.

They'd be too cheap to paint any of the wires though.
