Portable diffusion fabric with handle, I use this all the time. Best modifier for sunny days to manage the lighting.
Simple milk jug diffuser (cut the end off and slotted the edges to let it squeeze over the head of a Vivitar 285HV) - attached via homemade household sync cable to D70. D70 at 1/500, f13 - i think the vivitar was at 1/16th power.
Note that the jug kinda bounces around on the head of the flash - I tried using bongo ties to secure it (I left the handle on the jug, so at least there's something to loop them through) but it's still not terribly secure - a longer "neck" on the jug would help.

Have you ever been some place and in desperate need of a diffuser for your on-camera flash?
You've heard about using a biz card but you've got nothing to hold it in place?
Well here's my mod, which occured to me in just such a situation.
I used to do origami as a kid, spent hours folding paper over and over and... where was I?
Yes! The diffuser. Well you've probably folded an aeroplane using this method so I used it to fold my biz card and slip it into the gap that exists on my 400D built-in flash.
Method:
1. Fold each corner fully across the card
2. Colapse togther to form triangular peak
3. fold the 'ears' up to form a small square

Since I was a little kid, I’ve always loved the smell (& taste) of lemons and all things lemony … and now lemongrass. And who would have thought that they could bottle it.
I used the plastic origami coffee mug to trace out a origami diffuser using the mylar paper. Because it isn't as stiff, the fold-in tabs didn't keep it together. I used some gaffer tape to hold it together.
Fired using ebay remotes.
Custom 8'x5' diffuser I made using a full bed sheet and 1 1/4" PVC. Total project cost $50.
-5x 1.25"x10' PVC pipe
-4x '+' sign looking connectors
-4x T shaped connectors
-4x straight connectors
-4x tarp clamps
-1x Full 81"x96" 200 thread count sheet
Checking the workings of the Burnett Diffuser at Fairymead Sugar Mill, Bundaberg. This diffuser was relocated in 1982 to the southern side of the mill. Scanned from a publication (1969) by CSR Limited on behalf of the Australian Sugar Industry.
I wanted a diffuser for my flash, and I was feeling crafty. So, I built one. It's made of cardboard, nice white paper, gaffers tape, duct tape and glue, and it took me about 3 hours to design and build.
This the prototype that I cut out of a piece of printer paper. Yay origami. It worked, and was promising in test shots.

Mount Pico (Portuguese: Montanha do Pico), is a stratovolcano and highest point on the Portuguese island of Pico in the Azores. Further, reaching an altitude of 2,351 metres (7,713 ft) above sea level, it is more than twice the elevation of any other peak in the Azores, and the tallest mountain in Portugal.
History
Historical eruptions of Pico have occurred from vents on its flanks rather than the summit crater. In 1562–64, an eruption on the southeast flank produced lava flows which reached the sea. Another flank eruption in 1718 also produced flows which reached the coast. The most recent eruption occurred in December 1720.
On 29 September 2009 there were reports from local news sources that indicated that a fumarole existing at the pinnacle of the mountain (Piquinho) began emitting volcanic gaes. The region's seismic and volcanological monitoring centre (Portuguese: CIVISA Centro de Informação e Vigilância Sismovulcânica dos Açores) indicated that the phenomenon occurred in the early morning, turning intense and visible in various points throughout the island and from Faial. Although the event resulted from exceptional meteorlogical conditions and was visible in the Central Group, there was no liberation of anomalous volcanic gases and all other parameters fell within norms.

The pinnacle of the island and mountain: Pico Piquinho, also known as Pico Pequeno
The pit crater rim of Pico Alto on the summit of PicoMount Pico is part of the Madalena Volcanic Complex, one of three volcanological units that comprise the island of Pico, associated with three historic eruptions in 1562, 1718 and 1720. Current morphology suggests an age dating to the Holocene age, confirmed by radiocarbon dates younger than 6000 years. Structurally, this complex can be subdivided into two other sections: the Pico Volcano and the East Fissural Zone.
Pico is a stratovolcano, with a pit crater on its summit. Pico Alto the round crater about 500 meters (1,600 ft) in diameter and 30 meters deep tops the volcano, with Piquinho (Pico Pequeno) a small volcanic cone rising 70 meters within it to form the true summit. Meanwhile, the East Fissural Zone comprises several alignments of Hawaiian/Strombolian scoria cones and associated lava flows, which overflowed many of the cliffs, cut in older units and originated lava deltas (Portuguese: fajãs).
The tectonic structure is characterized by two fault systems.The main WNW-ESE structures are the dextral faults of Laoga do Capitão and Topo, that merge to the east, forming a narrow shallow graben. To the west, the graben is completely covered by the Pico stratovolcano occurring less than 10,000 years ago, and infilled by lava flows and cones of the Eastern Fissural zone, that includes many of the volcanic alignments and scarps. The second fault zone, running NNW-SSE, are markedly less in number and includes normal left lateral, oblique slip faults responsible for the main volcanic eruptions: the Lomba de Fogo-São João fault (basis of the 1718 eruption)and the Santo António volcanic alignment.
On top of Pico (Piquinho) there is an area of permanent degasification characterized by the emission of water vapour at a temperature of between 50ºC to 75°C. In addition, other vents also exist between 1,500 metres (4,900 ft) and 2,000 metres (6,600 ft) above sea level, as well as diffuse degasification along the graben between the Lagoa do Capitão and Topo faults. There is also a carbon dioxide-rich spring in the locality of Silveira (along the southern coast of Lajes do Pico, formed in the base of Pico.
A little bit of white tape is wrapped around the LED just above the rim, and then half of the top part is cut off and the other half is folded over to completely cover the LED.
Colours shown were mixed using fully on signals to each colour, no PWM and the resistors for each colour are the same.
RGB LED is from Sparkfun.com but the same idea should work for all of them.
