Recycling: BROKEN file/folder/map.

    Blog entry posted in 'Other, ''random''', May 23, 2013.

    Well, the title may be bit confusing, i dont tell about recycling paper files/folders, but instead, i thought it would be good to share this info, if someone is interested :).
    So, i found that my loved paper file/folder (what is it called anyways in english, book-like thing you put papers inside to keep them organized?) decided to break apart. Nothing big, but the mechanism bended over, so it didn't serve well anymore. Normal people would throw it away, and buy a new one. But what i did, thought a moment, ''any further use for this?'' and bingo, i took it more apart, salvaged; couple stiff enough cardboard pieces to be used as cutting/drawing board, not smooth thought. Handle that shuts mechanism, would make great bended chisel, only needs handle and sharpening. And small bars where you put papers, make good clothes or other hangers, only threads needed and base to install them. YES i may sound bit cheap about all this :D.
