repurposing unneeded parts

[heartlandcruisers]

well after building up several bikes and doing a lot of restorations, I have acquired a parts pile of unused parts I probably will never use.
so the question is what to do with them.
I could sell them, but then I would not have them and have to worry about damaging them during shipment and whatnot.
so, my idea is a simple one repurposing them.
I am going to begin by turning my firestone sprocket which is warped into a clock.
I know I have seen lots of repurposed bicycle parts so feel free to share you're creativeness.

This is not mine, but I have seen some of these around here and they look cool.

that is a cool idea!!! good way to prevent the frames from going to the dump and ladnfills.
I actually may have to "borrow" this idea it is very creative and useful
thanks for sharing

I think I saw some in either downtown Green Bay or Oshkosh, but didn't have a pic. They are a great idea tho!

That track bike is insane cool. Ive made different variations on this. I chopped off the bar extensions/ length, so its less of an overhead lift (im sure that bianchi is wicked heavy ). More importantly, I learned the hard way () to put bar tape back on the bars to prevent scratching top tube.
