Waste bin or drainer for pod coffee maker capsules

homemade drainer for single-dose coffee capsules

I am going to teach you how to make a pod coffee maker waste bin that is extremely simple but very effective. It is so simple that I doubted whether to do a tutorial or not, because it is not a step by step, it is a single step. But I love these day-to-day solutions that anyone can do with everyday objects

But what is clear is that everyone who has a capsule coffee machine, in my case the Dolce Gusto, cannot throw the capsule in the trash for various reasons. Because we pollute and because it is emptying little by little and the garbage is dripping.

Home DIY dehumidifier

Simple and homemade, without any electronics or mechanisms. We are going to make a dehumidifier so that it captures the humidity of our closets, rooms or wherever we want.

We can talk about 2 types of dehumidifiers:

Desiccants using calcium chloride or Silica Gel
With compressor and condensers

SIM card sizes. How to cut a SIM card

SIM card Sizes. SIM, mini SIM, micro SIM and nano SIM — Wikimedia

This is a modification I made a long time ago, when I bought my old Nexus 4 and I needed to cut the SIM card. It may seem outdated because most new cards come precut but the truth is that many of us still have old cards and we can save a few dollars and with this hack.

And we will also use the article to talk and explain the sizes of the SIM cards.

I receive my Nexus 4 from Google. I’m going to try it and I realize that it uses micro SIM 🙁

The logical solution is to go for a duplicate SIM card, but they charge $5 (yes, it was free before) So you have to find a homemade solution and this happens to cut the card at home to convert the mini SIM into Micro SIM.

Aireless Tires wheels

Non-pneumatic heavy machinery Tweel wheels

This is one of those topics that I like even if it is not a DIY. It is not topical, since it has been talking about this type of airless wheels or non-pneumatic wheels for a few years, I think since 2002 approximately.

If you have never seen a wheel of this style it will impact you especially when you watch some videos and discover what they are capable of withstanding. I leave one for you to enter into matter. It’s from Michelin Tweel wheels.

How to start a beehive into a glass jar

We have already seen how to make a DIY beehive and now I leave a modification or extension that we can make to a hive as a curiosity. The idea is to get a honeycomb in a jar or glass bell.

It is a very interesting science activity to show children. Although I have seen this product for sale, here I present it in a didactic way as a way to teach children and adults the ins and outs of hives.

How to make

I collect this information because the original page where it was published and that it linked no longer has the article.

The technique is very simple although we need to have a hive, of course.

Place a bell, with strips of the hive so that the bees begin their work.

How to make gel ice packs

You do sports? No? Well, surely you know someone who does and that comes full of bruises, overloads, etc. and that they say the sport is good 😉

The other day after a long workout, I came home with knee pain. At home I had a 3M cold and hot gel pack but why buy a bag if we can make it?

How to make homemade baby wipes

If you are a father, you will use wet baby wipes and it is one of those things that from the tests you know that you will continue to use them forever.

I bring a tutorial on how to make wet wipes, which we can use either with our baby or for domestic use. A great and really homemade DIY.

The wipes we have obtained are very cheap, although it will be difficult to replace the commercial ones with these. Yes, it is true that if you have run out and the stores are closed or you have gone on a trip or your baby has some type of intolerance to chemicals that carry the commercial wipes, then this tutorial may come in handy.
