Interlocked Hose - How can I peddle this?

So we have tons of this to sell and need an idea. It is an interlocked stainless steel hose 1"ID x 18"-24" long.

You have seen these on old pay phones and the drink dispenser at bars.

What can we do with this? Sometimes we have sold them for little conduit connectors.

Rather than scrap them we need ideas and I figure my GRM family might have ideas. Grunge jewelry?

Space alien robot arms?

eBay fuel line coolers for 50+ MPG?

Brake ducting for show cars?

Parts for the brew-it-yourselfers?

Are they water tight or just mechanical shielding?

Maybe custom exhaust for the lawn mower?

Weld some together and sell it as art.

1. Find Local Steampunk Convention

2. ????????

3. Profit

PC modders actually use those a lot...sell these and show the buyers this:

they leak and are used as guard for cryogenic hoses.

Yeah, that might be my answer.

If you have a lot of it, you could sell it to a surplus store like this one: http://www.ax-man.com/ (one of my favorite places to shop, they have all kinds of cool and weird stuff.)

Pet Hose?

Sell them to pay-phone manufacturers and Bar equipment distributors

if I knew how much I needed, I would buy some from you. Would be great for protecting wiring inside the the fenders of my fiat

we buy it in 25' - 100' lengths and carry all kinds of ID's. The problem is how to cut the spiral ends and coupled them to something.

We do have people has us make assemblies for electrical conduit parts.

We make a lot of oxygen hoses and end up with thousands of shorts and really hate selling it to the scrap guy.

May be cheaper than using braided AN hose for shielding critical wires from EMI. (Stick the wires through and then ground the hose)

Armored protection for your brake lines.

Trick looking sheaths for your motorcycle wiring and cables.

Bling for the ricer.

Chew through protection for pets on electrical cords.

Ganged between two blocks of wood as a wiggle toy for kids.

Robo-dreads for hair weaves.

Unbreakable Chinese handcuffs?

1st gen RX7 fuel pump wiring protection, yeah its that much of an issue
