# DIY Recycle Spray-Can

Narcelio Grud from Brasil came up with one of those amazing ideas, only DIY experts can hit on. He developed *Splay*, a simple but effective low-tech spray-can made of recycled spray-can parts and other commonly found resources like car tyres!

> Low-tech systems aim to develop strategies and mechanisms, bringing solutions that replace and expand the uses of material and techniques for street actions.

I really like that idea although I can’t imagine to take some tyres with me the next time. But in times like these, when spray-cans are getting more and more expensive spray-can recycling is probably the best thing to save some cash...
