#47629, "What to do with extra rim"


          

So I curbed the shit out of one of my rims this morning on the way to work. Ordered a replacement already, but now I'm left with the question of what to do with the old one. I hate throwing something out that seems like you could make something cool out of. Keep in mind I don't know how to weld. Any ideas?

Keep it as a spare stowed away somewhere. That way if you ever get stranded with a flat, you can go get it and voila.

It would work, except the tire from my old rim is fine, so I'm switching it over to the new rim! One of my co-workers suggested I make a necklace. Not a bad idea...

You could always add a slightly larger piece of glass and make a coffee table. emoji
