cut them up and use as extreme weather fire lighters.
light a strip with a lighter and it'll burn even in the rain. nasty black smoke tho so only use little bits.
you can send em off to be made into belts n stuff can't you?

I use tyres for belts, and inner tubes to make bags:

They are also useful for masses of things - bungying stuff to stuff, cut up to make shims etc. I'm working on a wallet, just need to master sewing them.

That was funny :becool:

Why do I never have an old tube when I want one?

Decent sewing machine should do you shouldn't it? something that can do heavy duty material?
looks good tho :biggrin:


We have a heavy duty machine, and we've had to buy a teflon foot - the main issue is with the rubber being pushed on by the grippers underneath, but failing to slide on the foot, so it rucks up. We should be all set to sew them now, we're just so busy with the house at the moment, the crafts have taken a back seat for a while.
