Make you own Extrusion Corner Plates
The author points out that these cost $3.5 each and you can make them for about $1.40. Me…tough call, if I don’t need alot of them, I might just buy them. https://www.instructables.com/id/DIY-2020-Extrusion-Corner-Plates/

Interesting ring build
The author basically is using a wireless coil to get power from another wired coil (i.e., a transformer) and that powers the ring. I could see other uses here to power a simple chip as well. https://makezine.com/projects/make-a-secret-light-up-led-ring/

How to make a neon like sign with EL Wire
I like how the author took a existing image and converted it to lines and then mark up where the EL Wire needs to go.

Interesting Tumbler build
Looks like an old motor, possibly a pool motor, and a 5 gallon bucket combined for this build. Its a bit noisy of a build too. https://www.homemadetools.net/forum/how-build-parts-tumbler-let-look-mine-74525?homelistings#post139366

Another nice sheet metal brake
Without welding and only with standard tools. The author built it to be 42 inches wide (which it a big one). Small ones you can get at harbor freight for pretty cheap.

Impressive build with cheap materials…but…OMG this would be a very time consuming build. Me…I’ll just buy one. https://www.instructables.com/id/DIY-Standing-Desk/

Interesting compound miter stand
Well if you have nice sawhorses, and an old ladder that you don’t need. I can see making this for your compound miter. Me…I just got one of those portable stands at Harbor Freight for cheap. http://www.homemadetools.net/forum/portable-mitre-saw-table-cantilever-design-74496?homelistings#post139266
