Anyone turned old hubs into salt and pepper shakers?

Hi guys, has anyone done this? I have a few laying about, some shimano deore disc hubs and some old Normandy hubs.

Not done it myself, but I've got some split Hope's that would look cool. Always fancied having a go at S&P shakers with them.

But that would necessitate the use of pre-ground salt and pepper-so 1970s/motorway services. Now if someone can make a pepper grinder out of a ck hub and a cook bros crank then I'd be interested.

I need me one of those.

Never made the S&P shakers though I have made all manner of bicycle powered foolishness including a meat mincer and the below pencil sharpener which still sits in the man cave:

My mate on another forum has a pair of salt and pepper grinders that are made from Sturmey Archer AW shells.

A rear hub pepper grinder, where you turned the freehub body to grind the pepper, would be cool.

A coffee grinder made from a Sturmey Archer hub would be a cool thing.

One of the cook bros QR levers would work perfectly
