A place to share practical, durable and quality made products that are made to last, with an emphasis on upcycled and sustainable products!
Guidelines:
Things that are well-made and durable (even if they won't last a lifetime) are A-Okay!
Unlike that other BIFL place, Home-made and DIY items are encouraged here, as long as some form of instruction is included in the body of the post.
Videos links are not allowed as post titles, but you may use them in a text post.
A limited amount of self-promotion is accepted, IF the item you are selling aligns with this criteria:
- The item must be made with sustainable or recycled materials.
- If electronic in some way, the item must be open-source.
- The item must be user-serviceable (if applicable).
- You cannot be a large corporation.
- The post must be clearly marked with a [Self Promotion] tag in your title.

MODERATORS
Thank you for the recommendation! After deliberating back and forth over whether to go with this or a DIY solution, I ended up buying this one.
I saw a tildes comment talking about this adapter. I'm thinking that, once we finish the first couple of refills, we can decide whether we want to get a bigger donor cylinder to refill them through this.
And then, if this ever does break, we can switch to a full DIY solution at that point, since we'll then have more hands-on experience with the larger cylinders. So, we can gradually ease into a more DIY approach once we've shown we'll stick with it, and have a bit more confidence.
After I got my sodastream it tasted a little off, but good enough. When I got my adapter and a 20lb co2 tank, it suddenly tasted sooooooo much better. Not sure if it'll happen to you, but I kept the refil that came with mine as a backup for when I'm recharging my main 20lb tank.
