Let see, brake rotors, truck wheels, plow discs, lawn umbrella base,
plywood, work bench with plywood steel plates and more.
Lots of great ideas. I think Joe nailed it when he said mostly people just

suggested so now I just have to cobble something together so I can get back
to grinding :)
Thanks!
