Love and Tinkering

Hello, and welcome to How to Break Stuff. A recent bout of introspection vis a vis my involvement in several blog communities centered around Wesleyan University has shown me that I am a hopelessly geeky n'er-do-well. Many of my posts to Wesleyan's Anonymous Confession Board and Wesleying have involved how-to's on nerf-gun-modification, choosing the right respirator for various tasks, and other little things of that nature. In the spirit of blogs like Hack a Day, HtBS will offer various bits of tinkering and advice. But also, in the spirit of the Wesleyan communities, ridiculousness. Don't take us too seriously. Take us just seriously enough. In addition to things that might actually be useful, expect features like Drunk Project of the Week, the Social Science Major Power-tool Review, and How serious were those warning labels?
Sometimes we know what we're talking about. If you have a question about Love or Tinkering (we're also equally adept at interpersonal relationships) send us an email at howtobreakstuff@gmail.com, and we'll reply with a post or something witty, useful or both.
Gavin and I have broken a fair amount of shit in our day. We know what's up.
