ry are these the kinds of things you are talking about? tires as planter boxes, a spoon to cook heroin, binder clips as cable stays, mason jar as barware or hurricane candle-holder; stethoscope for safecracking, CDs as bike reflectors? I hesitated over spoon because it seems to be the de facto "proper tool for the job" (is there a word that means "proper tool for the job")? Jan 23, 2013
