Use for Old Rotors?
 
I'm replacing all four rotors (too thin to resurface) and wonder if there is anything the old ones can be used for?
The only thing I can think of is where suncoast sells bookends from quartered sections for $200.
Anyone done this?

Should be easy to do...or sand blast, clear coat and stick some clock works in the middle for garage clock.

I use mine for canopy and car cover tie downs.

Been thinking of making a set of giant wind chimes.

Anyone know what are they worth at a scrap yard, they are heavy?

Old Rotors
 
Mount a clock in the center and then mark the flat part of the rotor with numbers 1-12.
