Old Video Tapes

Well People! It looks like DVD's Are The Next Greatest Thing, so what do we do with our old broken Video Cassettes now?

One thing if you got the patience most videos can be either fixed or the tapes transfered to other unwanted videos. It takes patience and steady hands.

Other ideas?

1. You have at least 1 winder wheel which can be used for storing strings ribbons wires or whatever can be wound up

2. The hard plastic of the cassette itself can be used as a support either flat or standing as the underpart of displays like on a Chistmas or holiday display.

3. The video taken apart you can find assorted parts which creative people might be able to use in other projects. The screws that hold the Cassette together might be used in other small type construction.

4. The box the Cassette came with maybe a small gift box

5. A wall note pad and pencil or pen keeper.

6. The heavy Plastic Video cases could store anything from office supplies to a pretend purse and make up case for your children

7. These cases are about the size if some paperback books.

8. My last idea The cassette itself. It would be a neat place to hide money or valuables. Who would even want to look through 20 or more Video's when they broke into your home?

I hope others have more ideas, because I have got a lot of Videos.

Thank You,
Mr. Thrifty
