All in a *DIY's Work - Noblility
*DIY kolektif - sinonim dengan konsep gotong-royong. Ringan sama dijinjing berat sama memikul.

How Safe Is Do-It-Yourself *DIY Homemakers?
Adakah kerja-kerja *DIY selamat?
Salam... and Goodday...
More people beginning to think they can build simple home projects themselves. But with some of today's at-home handy tool-gears products, self help may turn out to be self-destruction.
In handling tools especially electric tools, strict safety meaures and the operation guidelines must be adhered to. Just imagine if the portable circular saw (among dangerous tool) were to be operated without cutting blade protection guard or not wearing safety gorgle and proper attires, you'll never know when the cutting splinters may strike your face.
Accident during *DIY may occur. Always take extra precautions when handling with unfamiliar tools. Read and understands the given manual very well, pre-test the machine before actual operation take place. Think safety-first and pay attention to warning hazards if any (e.g radiation emission, inflammable or explosive materials)
So, is *DIY homemaker a passing fad, or can it play a role in the living quality of the people? There is no doubt that it has had an impact both on people and contractors. As people become more aware of themselves, and more vocal, they've started questioning their contractors, the do-it-yourselfers (DIYee) might treading dangerous stuff.

Senang cerita.... ramai orang sangka mereka boleh buat sendiri projek-projek mudah dikediaman mereka secara *DIY. Mereka lupa bahawa penggunaan alat perkakas, mesin-mesin tanpa ikut peraturan mengundang marabahaya terhadap diri sendiri. Tidak dinafikan bahawa projek *DIY ada impak kualiti hidup pada DIYee dan kontraktor, namun pekara keselamatan wajib diberi keutamaan. Bila langkah-langkah keselamatan diamalkan dan jadi sebati dengan jiwa, dengan sendirinya ia akan mempengaruhi hasil kerja *DIY kita menjadi lebih mudah, selamat dan bermutu.
Riasrumah mengambil pendekatan ini supaya bab keselamatan, konsep dan pengenalan menyeluruh *DIY diberi penekanan sebelum memulakan topik terperinci projek pilihan nanti.
Foto ada makna - Keselamatan *DIY macam pandu kenderaan, pemandu kena akur tanda-tanda isyarat jalaraya.
*DIY safety first - likewise motorist must adhere to warning displayed by road signs.

Projek *DIY Pilihan Riasrumah gaya AMI - Taman Kolam Ikan
Salam... and Goodday...
Another *DIY project of Riasrumah gaya AMI - Fish Pond Garden.
Taman kolam ikan sangat sesuai tempat kita beristirihat. Pesekitaran udaranya nyaman. Ada terapi. Deruan dan titisan air terjun membisik kalbu, kilauan ikan hiasan bak pancaran delima, sekali sekala melompat lompat di kolam dipayungi teratai. Bunga teratai pun ada terapi, kuncup kembangnya selari dengan peredaran matahari timbul hingga terbenam, pokok hijau dan bunga mekar menyejukan lagi mata memandang, burung2 pula bersiulan irama tweet-tweet.
Kolam nii..kalau pelihara ikan jenis buat lauk pun boleh, sekali-sekali kena ikan bakar ditepian kolam. Menyelerakan. Duduk bersantai sambil membaca novel Riasrumah lagi boleh....

Better Half?
A husband's work is never done. He is electrician, plumber, painter, odd-job man, wireless mechanic, chauffeur, gardener, wood-chopper, carpenter, laborer - and that's before he's even taken his jacket off.
Then there's moving the wardrobe, mending the clock, putting his finger on a granny knot, winding wool, washing a spider down the plug-hole, taking the dog for a walk - but that's just routine labor : it is not until he has already put in a ten-hour day and had his tea that the cerebral activity begins.
In the first place, he is an experienced political adviser. There is not a husband in the land who, after scanning the evening newspaper, is unable to give his family run-down on the likelihood of a nuclear war between France and Belgium. Then he must be a skilled economist. When his wife demands a new dress there has to be someone with the necessary qualifications to tell her that she is not getting one. There are men in the corridors of power earning $30,600 a year for doing less.
Add all these jobs together, put them through the statistical mincing machine, multiply by six and take away the number you first thought of, and you will see that our man is working 200 hours a week - and is worth about $153,000 a year.
- Keith Waterhouse, London
Seharian bekerja!
Kerja isteri pun melambak, dialah yang bangun awal dari tidurnya dibandingkan dengan sang suami, mana hendak membasuh pinggan mangkok, kain baju, siapkan anak-anak ke sekolah, siapkan sarapan pagi sang suami, celah tu - dia pun perlu siapkan diri untuk bekerja. Nasib baik tengahari tidak payah masak sebab makan di luar. Petang pula qadak menyapu luar-dalam rumah untuk pagi punya, waktu petang mengadap pasu bunga - cari siput2 untuk dibuang, lalu siram pokok hiasan, kemudian buang sampah. Manakala tuntutan Ilahi mesti dibuat. Dan demi dan, cukuplah tu....
Kebolehan berDIY dapat membantu kita bekerja cekap dan jimat masa. Konsep cara berDIY hendaklah difahami betul, kalau tidak alamat seharian berkecelaruan dan pancit kita!

Hidup dan Keindahan
Salam..
Santapan jiwa DIY
Hidup dan Keindahan
Manusia sejak dia dijelmakan, selalu merentangkan tali diantara alam dan hatinya. Tumbuhlah kehalusan perasaan itu dengan sederhana pada mulanya, kerana melihat keindahan langit, kesuburan bumi dan keluasan laut, warna-warni bulu burung dan mekarnya kembang, matahari terbit dan terbenam. Tetapi kerana beratnya tekanan hidup, mencari beras seliter kadang2 kendorlah tali hubungan hati dengan alam itu atau pudar sama sekali. Demi apabila keperluan se-hari2 beransur kemakmurannya, mulailah dirasai bahwa hidup bukanlah semata2 "cari makan". Hidup bukanlah semata2 tekun mencari ilmu. Ada yang lebih tinggi dari makan dan ilmu, yaitu kehalusan perasaan buat menangkap yang indah, yang ada keliling diri.
Bila ini tercapai, inilah " Tiang Hidup".

Projek Pilihan DIY Pagar Riasrumah jenis Smog-Killers
Salam and Goodday!
Trees as Smog-Killers
Engineers, builders and urban designers are beginning to recognize that the small green leaf is one of natures as most amazing technicians as a preserver of the enviroment. Leaves "breath in" carbon dioxide and other combustible gases released by vehicles and industry, and turn them back to the atmosphere as oxygen. Their hairy surfaces catch particles and keep soot from saturating the air. They also smother noise.
Planners are giving more emphasis, as a result, to having trees and scrubbery along highways, near airports and industrial sites, and in residential areas. "Greenbelt" of hedges, trees, scrubs, grass and vines along busy thorough-fares have been found in some cases to tune down the sound of heavy traffic by as much as 60 percent.

Sesungguhnya pokok-pokok dan renek dapat membantu persekitaran alam dengan udara yang nyaman dan mengurangkan bising dan asap dari kenderaan. Kaedah semulajadi ini seperti dilaporkan oleh TCM sememangnya dipraktikkan oleh Riasrumah. Dalam kes ini, lihat gambar projek DIY pagar rumah gaya AMI. Sebelum ini pokok renek atau pokok teh telah ditanam sepanjang sekeliling pagar rumah. Kini pagar diDIY berbentuk petak (partial hedges). Design berdasarkan nilai estatika dan mengimbangi masa senggaraan (Trimming hedges do consume time!) Detailnya dimuatkan dalam legasi siri Projek DIY Pilihan Riasrumah gaya AMI.

Abah... apa makna tikus baiki labu bah....
haa.. macam sianu tu la.. repair tv kesudahannya dari ada gambar kalor dah jadi kelabu asap...
(in an early volume of the English Who's who, George Benard Shaw listed his creations as "Cycling and showing off."
Humbly in an early posts of the DIY Riasrumah listed a new dimension "In DIY world don't let a mouse repairs pumpkin.")
Abang.... kata... nak cuci bilek air dan longkang belakang... usah gusar sayang.., klorin kan ada, malam kang abang tabur klorin secukup rasa, esok sumpah.. putih bersih lagi berseri!
(In DIY world, you got to do it in a smart way too, remember don't overdo it, otherwise if the chlorine as a cleaning agent were to be poured excessively, your floor or drain might spoil and harmful.)
Sayang.... kalau iapun nak betulkan pasu bunga orkid you, tak payah ler sambil pegang payung! lalu dengan jelingan manja I... bukan pro... ya!
(When you DIY something, at least be practical.)
