Vinegar, Duct Tape, Milk Jugs & More: 1,001 Ingenious Ways to Use Common Household Items to Repair, Restore, Revive, or Replace Just about Everything in Your Life by Earl Proulx
An impressive set of uses for vinegar and baking soda.... Earl's main message also seems to be throw nothing away and everything has a new use. Entertaining and enlightening, really.
Yankee Magazine's Make It Last: Over 1,000 Ingenious Ways to Extend the Life of Everything You Own by Earl Proulx
Very dated, publish in 1997, more attune to 1990, those who seem to like it are very nostalgic.
Meh. Well, this book was published in 1985 or so; I already knew about a lot of the tips and tricks.
