I do the same thing. I'm just too damned hard headed or stubborn, or both to admit defeat. I call it "tinkering" or my hobby. But I've also learned a lot over the years. I walk the aisles at the hardware store every once in a while taking mental notes on things I can use as tools, or substitute parts later down the road. But none of these things were designed to do what I intend to use them for! I think it's a sickness.
