Franken fixes

Soda bottle sprinklers and wire hanger toilet paper holders are just two of the weird, wonderful DIY contraptions at There, I Fixed It.

From the geniuses who brought you I Can Haz Cheezburger? a new-ish website called There, I Fixed It will leave you either inspired or completely mortified. But most likely, you’ll just have a good LOL session.
 
There, I Fixed It is basically a duct tape-heavy collection of photographs — some user-submitted — that proudly display “Epic Kludges and Jury Rigs.” While several of the DIY home repair projects featured on the site are actually innovative and eco-friendly, just as many are ridiculous and/or fall into the “don’t try this at home” category (I’m talkin’ to you Two Person Hot Tub and Fire Alarm).
 
I’ve picked out a few of my favorite home-related hacks from There, I Fixed It to share. Are there any offbeat, on-the-cheap DIY creations of your own that you think make the cut?
