Anonymous04/25/25, 22:55No.2912282Welcome to /diy/

Welcome to /diy/, a place to: Post and discuss /diy/ projects, ask questions regarding /diy/ topics and exchange ideas and techniques. Please keep in mind: - This is a SFW board. No fleshlights or other sex toys. - No weapons. That goes to /k/ - Weapons. The workmanship and techniques involved in creating objects which could be used as weapons or the portion of a weapons project that involves them (e.g., forging steel for a blade, machining for gunsmithing, what epoxy can I use to fix my bow) may be discussed in /diy/, but discussing weapon-specific techniques/designs or the actual use of weapons is disallowed. Things such as fixed blade knives or axes are considered tools, things such as swords, guns or explosives are considered weapons. - No drugs or drug paraphernalia (See Global Rule 1). If you want to discuss something that could involve such things (e.g., carving a tobacco pipe from wood) that's fine, but make sure it's /diy/ related and doesn't involve drugs or it will result in deletion/ban.

Some friendly suggestions for posting: - First ask Google, then ask /diy/. Your question will probably be better received if you do so. - List available resources (tools, materials, budget, time, etc.) - Try to use pictures and explain the goal, if possible - Be patient, this is a slow board; your thread will be around for days. - Share your results! /diy/ loves to see problems solved and projects completed!
