Alternative use for blown subs

A sub's basket is an interesting lamp shade and they conduct heat away from the blub so it lasts a wee bit longer. I glued a few sub magnets to the underside of a homemade delivery car sign and it worked pretty well even on the highway, I also used to use them to prop up my bed/furniture so they don't leave a deep dent on the carpet, it slides well too.

Some coils makes a weird-looking arm/ankle bracelet if you roll the sharp edges, especially coils that have overheated and just barely staying together. Tell that bish it's art over machine torture and it represents carnage in the electrical world.

I used cones from blown subs as popcorn baskets and candy trays, little kids tend to beat them up but this is where metal cones shine since it doesn't rip. A dog ate part of a blown cone once a few years ago, it was funny.

I have used blown coils as wire to tie stuff up, kind of like yarn,
Cones have been used to hold nuts and bolts.
