we have about a hundred discs we don't want..

 

anyone think of a game we can invent to get rid of them in an entertaining way?

 

Disc shooting wouldn't work as they are not heavy enough, and we have nothing to shoot them with.

 

So all idea's welcome!

Mmmm, microwave them! We used to put all the free CDs in the microwave when we were at uni. It's pretty! :D

 

 

What happens?

 

 

 

 

I know it is boring but we use ours in displays and awards and also as bird scarers and pretty mobiles.

 

Here's some ideas:101 Things to do with CDs and DVDs

A couple of years back the DT department took hundreds off my hands for use as little hovercraft - they glued old bottle tops ontop them and then stretched a balloon over that so that the air rushed out through the centre hole.

make a massive disco ball...

 

That would be huge.. and uber tempting. Wouldn't we have to make them all square though? thats alot of effort!

That's alot of bottle tops, way to many E numbers before diner. But could race them, almost like a geeky rubber duck race

 

Glue them togther and make a chair or table out of them:p

 

or glue them to a chair? easier?

Food Tech probably want their microwaves whole

 

build a clay pidgeon style launcher and fire them at the sports field on sports day!!!!

 

CD's are to light, blow around to easily. If not we'd just get a kid to throw them :p

 

"Explode" them with a Dremel?

 

YouTube - Exploding CD

 

Youtube's block on my mac, will check it out later.

In the mean time, explain what happens?

 

make sure that they they have no personal data on them.

 

using CD labels print various highly confidental central Government style labels and then leave them on Buses and trains. Then sit back and watch the local news reports

 

They're only Dell discs, class idea but printing labels could class as a "waste" of resources for this reason.

 

Might get one at home and do this though :D

 

Remember those old foam disc throwers? I wonder how far they'd launch a CD, with appropriate modifications of course.

 

That's an idea. All we need is two REALLY FAST spinning wheels placed an appropriate distance apart

*contemplates*

 

make a artsy fartsy collage mirror type thing on your office wall :)

 

To original, we haven't got all that much blue tack too

 

or burn them using a magnifying glass. May take a while but thoroughly enjoying!

 

Isn't that why god invented ants?

Araldite them to random teachers' desks...

 

or the cd drive

 

GENIUS!

 

Keep the ideas coming, will film the Tech team (all two of us) carrying out the best idea and stick it on here.

Probably in the summer holidays if it's messy

How about coasters for the staff room.

 

people will probably try and return them, like we've left them there by accident
