So I got my front brakes done at the Dealership 3 weeks ago.. I asked them to save the rotors because I was thinking of doing an art project for them... since I was in the process of moving to a new state.

Beyond a clock...can't think of anything else.. and I'm not sure I want a 15 lb. clock on the wall anyway.

Any ideas?

Build a new record player (or 4).

I was thinking maybe bookends.. or bar stools..

I have an articulated desk lamp that clamps on the edge of the work bench, but it seemed like it was always just out of reach of the job at hand. I mounted the lamp base in one of the wheel stud holes and now I can put the lamp anywhere. The rotor will not allow it to fall over.

Three out of four say its very clever. The fourth asks if that is a brake rotor.

gunsmoker, lol thanks.

The lamp base is a good idea... I was thinking about building an industrial looking lamp. A lot of my furniture isn't matched though.. so I was looking to get rid of some of it and start an industrial theme..

any ideas for centering the lamp post in the rotor?

Want a stock exhaust for another art project? My attic is becoming a junk yard...

lol. I'm not much for art projects.. but this is the first place I've lived in the last 10 years that isn't temporary (guaranteed move in a year), so I'd like to add personality.
