One of my favorite aspects of Burning Man is the DIY and maker culture. So many people from different backgrounds who find themselves doing new things and learning new skills and making weird stuff, either for simple survival, creature comforts at camp, or spectacular artistic sculpture and display. Sometimes people have been makers for years before getting out to the desert, other times Black Rock City opens a new door and gets somebody who was never into DIY before into making stuff at home. This thread is for the stuff we make at home in the default world. Planter boxes? A shed? Doing something interesting from a flatpack furniture kit? Tell us about it, share pics if you're able to... show us the cool and weird stuff you're getting up to
To put pictures in your posts, you will ideally want to upload them to a hosting site. If you've got a server or a wordpress blog or something, great. You can also create a free account on a site like tumblr (that's the one I use, though there are others). Upload there, and then 'copy the image address' ... from there, you can click on the Insert Image button in the toolbar above the site's post editor, and paste in that image address. See my example below.
