Has anyone got any experience or info on how to open up a Suunto 9 sports watch? My usual resources are drawing a blank, someone on here may be able to help!

Thanks in advance for supporting local repairers!

Q5/A5 Most unusual item to recycle into a make? Maybe the toothbrush magnet from my previous answer. Or (a brave failure) a slice of polyethylene terephthalate from a drinks bottle as a stiffener for a cap bill. It warped to a tighter curl than was wanted, maybe it was heat sensitive.

Q2: unlikely combo

A2: there have been many odd combos as a maker. Most often for cosplay. The primary one that comes to mind is a shampoo bottle + PVC pipe fittings + sculpey to make a prop weapon. (I bought it just for the bottle shape and emptied it into another container to use it for the prop)

Unfortunately I can't find any photos still online. (It wasn't very good, it was the first prop I'd made in ~2003)
