What’s the Most Impressive DIY You’ve Done With Limited Tools or Materials?

So, I’ve been thinking a lot about how many times I’ve wanted to take on a DIY project but didn’t have the right tools or didn’t want to spend a ton on materials. You know, the “I’m gonna make it work with whatever I’ve got”. So, I’m curious — what’s the most impressive (or at least surprisingly good) DIY project you’ve pulled off using random materials or limited tools? Like, I’m talking about those projects where you had zero expectations, but somehow it turned out great? Anyone built something using only duct tape and a prayer? Or turned some crap into a treasure? Would love to hear your stories and maybe steal some ideas for my next “make it work” project. submitted by /u/Odd_Wear_9599 [link] [comments]
