0.5" crochet needle (double ended)
Ewt wants bigger crochet needles, and since I can get 0.5" aluminium rod for about GBP 4.85 for two metres, I'll be able to make 20cm long needles for about 50p of materials and some time with a needle file getting the hook right. One to Ewt in exchange for the inspiration and a chunky crocheted object (not sure what yet), one to Sarah's mother as a present, and I've still got 160cm of aluminium rod to play with! Yay!
Hamster cage
I'm making an outer frame of aluminium. Aluminium flat bars form the rectangular top and bottom, and extruded angle sections form the corners, making a 1m high, 350mmx240mm or so cuboidal frame.
I will then use extruded channel section to put shelving ledges inside (along the long axis) at various positions in order to support platforms.
Since the top/bottom and shelving ledges all go *inside* the external angles, there is then a space for clear plastic sheet (3mm) to go down. Little flaps joined to the outside of the angle pieces to keep the sheeting in there, and it'll be able to slide up to open the cage.
I'll drill some vent holes in the side for air to get out, and will force air in with a small fan at the top level.
