Found this in the garbage at work, and I think it would be really cool to repurpose it. I just don’t know what. Dimensions are 10"x6"x3"

Maybe mount it to a wall in our storage room, and make it a first aid kit?

New Ignition for your car or battery kill switch

A liquor cabinet might be kinda cool. You could fake wire it to something for that inconspicuous look.

Use to resurrect a frakenstein-type monster.

That was one of my first ideas, problem is that at the moment I don’t have a car that would “work” with.

No one in my house drinks, but that does give me an idea to use it as a handgun case.

Well we already did that, so it wouldn’t technically be a re-purpose...

emergency whiskey supply.

I also like the liquor cabinet idea. But the switch has to open it somehow.

Put a Don’t Touch sign on it and hook it to a train horn.

Computer case.

That could be fun. That is, until my 3 year old gets over the volume and decides he just wants to honk it all day.

Wahaha! That could become an issue.

Make it a light switch or something else really normal that will confuse guests

Oooh that’s a cool idea. I would need one of those micro towers, though.

Ooh, I could put an electric pencil sharpener in there and connect the power through the throw switch.

I bet a mini ITX board would fit. Cooling would have to be creative and so would GPU placement. Could probably repurpose the power switch as the one for the computer.

They have a ton of these on the kink.com sets at SF Armory. Though I’m not sure “build a sex dungeon” was the suggestion you were looking for.

Emergency end of the world kit. aka a good book, condoms, lube, a lossless music player, crank power thing, several airplane size bottles of alcohol, and a Hot Wheels. why? to reminisce the good days

Definitely needs to activate something and not just be a storage box. Outside floodlights? Garage door power (kill it on vacations etc)? Christmas light outlet so instead of plugging them in you get a satisfying ca-CHUNK?

I’m liking the Christmas light idea. That could be a lot of fun.

The problem here is that I would need an enclosed switch that actually works...

Psh, details, details.

Not exactly. I’ve got the expensive masochistic hobby thing pretty well covered by virtue of being a car enthusiast.

Usually switches of this nature need to be in the off position. For safety.
