I go for the minimalistic on everything. the only thing im going to put a safety stop on is the scrap cable stripper I made . that is lethal don't fancy having my arm ripped off and crushed . never anywhere near the pulleys on the saw so don't bother no kids or ayone near when running

To be honest, I'm generally with you on all that. It was only when s-b-f mentioned it I thought it would be a good project for the plasma cutter, plus I'm bored at home and am trying to think up new tasks to get me out of the house

Today I... reversed a water tap (who knew they were reversible?), fixed a dining chair with a broken back, moved the overhead LED lights in the garage to be over the workbench and fitted an 8 way power bar that I got off Northwest on here

Actually there have been times when I could have done with something a bit larger than a cereal box (& the folded corners can be a pain). Where do other people obtain their cardboard from in the same thickness as cereal cartons.
Don’t want to have to buy it in bulk

Amazon.

(I don't mean I buy cardboard from Amazon, just that the seventeen deliveries per day result in a lot of spare cardboard)

Yes I get a fair number of deliveries but it’s generally corrugated or on the thickish side. Just large area of cereal box thickness would be ideal
