Instructables in the Daily Green
More news and press about Instructables here.When Eric Wilhelm started Instructables five years ago, it was supposed to be nothing more than a side project – a dalliance from his day job as a designer at Squid Labs. But Instructables, which catalogs super cool do-it-yourself projects in easy-to-follow detail, has grown into a full-fledged site with a huge following of its own. DIY was bigger than he thought.We spoke with Wilhelm about Instructables, the cult of DIY, and just what makes a homemade Dachshund wheelchair so darn cute.

I tend to find a lot of un-green stuff, e.g. PVC and other synthetic-based builds, and some very-poor green-flavoured postings. Would you be able to get some decent "green" assistance for some more competitions? I have ideas that more innovation could be pulled out of people with a bit more incentive. E.g. a Bamboo comp'.
