Old tools get a new purpose

[zer01]

Anyone used old or broken tools to decorate their shop? Or have used the tools for a new purpose? Here is an idea I came across, I have also seen wrenches cut and used for a hose reel. In Cabellas they used huge wrenches for clothes racks. Looking for ideas to add custom touches to my garage.

Looks good, you can probably make a killing selling those on ebay

Most of my tools are warranted, so if they break, they get replaced. Cool idea though.

I come across random tools at garage sales that I really don't need but can't pass them up. Just wanted to see if people have ideas like these in there garages. I see a lot of creative ideas just throwing this one out there.

Open end wrenches can make great drawer pulls and cabinet handles.

Sweet use for busted tools! I don't usually have any broken tools, but may just have to buy a few cheap tools to do this with! Great ideas.

I mostly have lifetime warranty tools but when I come across cheap tools at yard sales I can't help but to make something useful out of them. I was hoping others had similar ideas

Some good ideas there.
