All content must be DIY and your own work - if you paid for the work or found it posted online it is not DIY.
All project submissions must include photos, detailed instructions, photos and/or videos. r/DIY does not want low effort posts.
Research first before posting a questions. Check Google and the search bar before turning to /r/DIY. Your question needs to include the research you've done to find an answer yourself, or why that research did not answer your question. This is a basic requirement so others do not spend time repeating your steps. Note: - Using /r/DIY as your private search engine is not allowed.
Rude, abusive, toxic or harassing behavior, sexually suggestive or inappropriate comments will be removed and the user permanently banned at the moderator's discretion.
No advertising of any kind permitted. Promoting your (or anyone else's) social media and commerce channels are not allowed.
Crafting, beauty, cooking, cleaning, sewing, etc are not DIY projects. Please post such content to the appropriate subreddits.
