Here's a nice twist on the traditional vinyl-LP-as-a-clock craft: a cut-out AT-AT mod. From Etsy seller NotByLaser (which implies that this was not cut by a laser!).

Star Wars AT-AT: Hand Crafted Vinyl Record Clock - Made To Order (via Neatorama)

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

    I worry when records ARE cut by laser. Vinyl cyanide and CO2 lasers do not mix.

    You could get bonus points for using an Empire Strikes Back soundtrack LP, mounted in a frame in front of the album cover, but you’d probably make a lot of people cry for destroying it :)

    (you could just use a thrift store LP and make a copy of the ESB label…)

    I love the multiple mashup.  Time to start a competition.  ”3D printed steampunk unicorn.”  ”Maru the cat in a hobbit home dangling from a suborbital balloon.”
