    Make something

    Heck, these days I am in conflict with myself if it is right to scrap metal so it can be sold to the
    Chinese. More and more I want make some art or usefull objects out of my scrap.

    Those rims might make good plant holders. Just get a welder friend,who does aluminum, and have them weld on some legs and there you go!

    Look specifically for an "aluminum recovery" yard as opposed to a scrap metal yard. Yards that specialize tend to pay more for the specific metals.
