Sure! You can use it as a paperweight, doorstop, or even as a weapon if you add a handle.

Don’t forget jewelry, like a necklace or, uh, a cockring.

Cockring?! Look at the size of this thing next to my finger!

@Davi
Alright, no need to size shame here.

@Davi
Yeah, that’s not practical at all.

I wouldn’t use it.

Here’s where you can buy replacements:

I’d also recommend a magnetic drain plug to catch any fragments.

You’re awesome for putting this together for the person who posted.

Thanks a ton! I’ll check these out first thing tomorrow.

You can use it… to destroy whatever it’s connected to.

Don’t do it. You’ll end up with metal in your oil, timing issues, and probably a trashed engine. Replace it.

If you can’t find a new one, a machine shop can probably make one for you.

Finally, someone with a practical solution.
