Rotor Clock
I made this myself.

They're old rotors that have been lying around, but I hated to throw them out. I had them media blasted, then I clear coated them to keep them from rusting. I made the clock face using Corel Draw, from a picture of my 993 tachometer. Kinko's printed it out for me - actually, they cut the image from vinyl. I applied that to a plastic background, inserted the clock guts, and attached it to the rotor. If anyone is interested, I can make one for you. I have one spare, but it's going to be a Christmas gift to a friend of mine. E-mail me if you are interested. I am not sure what the cost will be, I haven't added up what I have spent here.

Reminds me of the line in that racing commercial...something to the effect of "Racing Fever...How bad do YOU have it?" Cool clock!! <img src="graemlins/beerchug.gif" border="0" alt="[cheers]" />

Looks pretty and very creative, but I'd be afraid of something as heavy as a metal brake rotor hanging up at 5 ft. or higher on my wall.
Good luck!
