Get it powder coated so it'll last. I'm sure you're going to have your nut in a lota people hands when they see it.

One of my pithy sayings to myself (Heh heh) is that a 6" hex nut cost $50 to make and is worth almost nothing because it's not generally needed. That explains why a beautiful 32" stroke 1922 shaper goes to the scrapper when a hand operated shaper that can only do 1% of what the 32" can do sells for ten or twenty times what it sold for in 1925. Supply and demand, though in this case the nut is good as a conversation piece it's less likely it will ever be used as intended again.

Don't take this the wrong way but I'd love to fondle and customize your nut.
Now I wish I had bigger nuts...

I've got a couple of nuts about that size from that were replaces as part of a cone crusher rebuild. Originally I wanted to hang them off the back of the 71 before that became big but never got to it. One day I will get around to building a flatbed for one of my trucks and use them for tail light protectors/steps/decoration.

CudaChick1968 wants to get a nut from you! :hitit:
I'd take her up on it. If you had two of them then you might have bragging rights to something....

Whatever it's for, it'll sure keep it there! Wow.
That's a bummer on the second part. When ya mentioned the chrome paint I kinda thought you might be inclined to have two pieces of art instead of just the one in your signature line. It'd even fit in a flat rate shipping box. But I'm no salesperson. Lol
I expect, like has been said above, that it's going to get a lot of attention and will be the originator of many future finger strength contests amongst your friends. I just hate to think of all the rust stained hands and paint flakes decorating your floor. < grin >

Too funny Fencer!! I was hoping he would. Just think of the memories his friends would have. When they finished playing with his nut, he could invite them to wash up afterwards with a ******** from the Mistress. I still have a few bars left. My picture attempt will probably be upside down in true GJ phone fashion but I'll try.
