商品簡介
Techno-crafters twelve and up will enjoy this guide to repurposing old computer parts, outdated cell phones, and various other electronic gadgetry destined for the landfill, into snazzy accessories like ribbon cable hair clips or a scanner side table perfect for holding a post-industrial nightlight and mouse pencil sharpener. Step-by-step instructions for 62 such projects are detailed with clear illustrations and photographs of the finished creations. A section on tools, techniques, and safety describes the inner workings of computers and presents basic information on electronics. Younger readers will benefit from adult supervision, as some of the projects require power tools. Sarafan is a San Francisco-based new-media artist.
