A place to share practical, durable and quality made products that are made to last, with an emphasis on upcycled and sustainable products!
Guidelines:
Things that are well-made and durable (even if they won't last a lifetime) are A-Okay!
Unlike that other BIFL place, Home-made and DIY items are encouraged here, as long as some form of instruction is included in the body of the post.
Videos links are not allowed as post titles, but you may use them in a text post.
A limited amount of self-promotion is accepted, IF the item you are selling aligns with this criteria:
- The item must be made with sustainable or recycled materials.
- If electronic in some way, the item must be open-source.
- The item must be user-serviceable (if applicable).
- You cannot be a large corporation.
- The post must be clearly marked with a [Self Promotion] tag in your title.

Second this. I was at camp (with my kids) this summer and able to keep my phone charged just by leaving my power bank charging at the tent while I was hiking. No more trying to find a free outlet in the dining hall, just recharge while sleeping. My power bank would have made maybe 3 days, but I was able to be gone for the whole week.
We got green bonus points at the camp inspections because I had that outside my tent as well.
