Make it yourself...vinyl clocks

About 9 years ago I was making some clocks out of records. They were ok and used spraypaint for the markings. These are better though and now with the internet people can share and teach each other how to do simple things like that.
Go to
instructibles.com to learn how to make your own vinyl clock or almost anything else. DO NOT USE GOOD RECORDS for projects like this. Only use beat up records that are unplayable.

Record Ratchet

I only posted this because it has records in it. As a DIY project it's fine but I think it's silly as a designer piece of furniture. I do like the concept using soft materials to make something strong and I like the idea of using what's around you to build something. However, Harry Hasson's ratchet furniture is just another example of why this concept just doesn't work 99% of the time.
