A place to share practical, durable and quality made products that are made to last, with an emphasis on upcycled and sustainable products!
Guidelines:
Things that are well-made and durable (even if they won't last a lifetime) are A-Okay!
Unlike that other BIFL place, Home-made and DIY items are encouraged here, as long as some form of instruction is included in the body of the post.
Videos links are not allowed as post titles, but you may use them in a text post.
A limited amount of self-promotion is accepted, IF the item you are selling aligns with this criteria:
- The item must be made with sustainable or recycled materials.
- If electronic in some way, the item must be open-source.
- The item must be user-serviceable (if applicable).
- You cannot be a large corporation.
- The post must be clearly marked with a [Self Promotion] tag in your title.

MODERATORS
I bought a Blendtec about ten years ago and it has been amazing. Never once has it even needed maintenance, let alone broken.
Don't breathe this!
Seriously some of the best marketing. I know almost jack shit about blenders, but as soon as I saw this post, I immediately thought of Blendtec. Why?
Because I watched the owner demonstrate many times that his blender could turn things like smartphones, other blenders, and even an entire fucking rake into powder. If I'm shopping for a blender, I think I'll go with the one good enough to literally blend other blenders.
But he used a new blender every time.
Once you render a blender into powder, you have to start with a new one next time because of the laws of physics and entropy.
(Just kidding.)
Does It Blend?
A normal blender probably couldn’t blend it, but another Blendtec might be able to.
