Haven't a clue?

It must have a use for something? I just opened a gallon of orange juice and after removing the cap, there was a plastic ring left. I took that off the jug and was wondering if I might use it maybe with something on a flat car load ? Kind of large and looks like it could be use as a Caterpillar tread. Hmmmm

Anyone figured a good use for this or is it garbage fodder?

Cheers, TOF

i found just two uses for thes plastic rings.
one putting some as wheel iron in a smitty, the other as barrel rings for scratchbuilt barrels.

Darryl,
I repair cars for a living so I cannot tell you how often I contemplate certain objects and have a pile of things that I now forget what I was thinking of using them for.

There seems to be two trains of thought.

Those who like tidiness and jettison what they consider junk or of no use and those who fill homes, garages or storage sheds with items “that may come in useful one day”. lol

well, i’m definitely of the second group.
each and everytime i throw something away, i could use it a couple of days later.

Junk is the stuff you should have thrown away years ago.

Junque is the stuff you should not have thrown away last week.
