I found a few photos I have taken recently while showing homes. The improvements (or rather improvisations) that people do to their homes never ceases to amaze or entertain me.
First, there is the deadbolt placement on the front door:
Either the owner used their foot to unlock the door or the children had keys and needed easy access to use them.
Next is an interesting improvisation with items found at the hardware store. How many uses can you think of for a hinge? Would you ever consider a hinge as part of your plumbing?
Presto! Who knew that a hinge and a couple bolts could morph into a convenient leaky pipe-fixer thingamabob?
Finally, the greatest innovation I have seen lately is ordered to suit for convenience. Going to the grocery store is a hassle and time consuming. Life would be way easier if food just grew in your kitchen.
Bingo! Just throw seed on the dirt (after removing those annoying subfloors), lightly moisten, and you will have a bountiful harvest of fun foods in your former kitchen in no time.

That hinge you're referring to is actually a type of pipe clamp used to fix leaky pipes.
We utilized a similar apparatus to fix a leaking water main over a decade ago. Much cheaper (and equally effective) than ripping out the entire line and replacing it.
