I made one of those chain keyrings out of the Shimano HG chain on my Timberline.

I've a brand new Deore rear hub currently acting as a paperweight on the mantelpiece thanks to Shimano providing the whole thing and freehub cheaper than just the freehub alone.

I made my girlfriend a pair of earrings from two Raleigh headbadges. Annoyingly, I keep thinking about pinching one back as I'm restoring an old Raleigh now :x
