Submitter gsimon was in a hotel room with no phone charger. A data cable, a paper clip, a key, and the batteries from the keyboard of the set-top box combined to make a fine substitute.

Being way too Dutch to pay $20 for a pool skimmer, I paid 50 cents for some netting and stitched it to a wire hanger. Perfect!

Instant weapon and shield!

Wire + UPS battery from Freecycle + dc-dc converter which we had on hand + tofu tub = fixed!
