Creative
Mini Roller Desk Toy
Thread several bushings onto a wooden dowel or metal rod to build a low-friction rolling module for a desktop marble run, fidget column, or mini conveyor. Use different-length spacers, paint or dye some pieces for contrast, and mount ends in 3D-printed/brass end caps. It’s fast to assemble and makes a tactile, kinetic desk accent.
Stackable Industrial Jewelry
Turn the nylon bushings into chunky, industrial-style beads: sand and prime the surface, then paint, patina, or laser-etch patterns. Stack multiples on headpins or elastic cord for bracelets, necklaces, or statement earrings. Offer color-matched metal findings and packaging to make finished pieces gift-ready.
Quiet Drawer & Sliding Glide Retrofit
Use individual bushings as replacement glides/bearings for small drawers, sliding panels, or cabinet doors to reduce noise and friction. Mount with a small screw or epoxy into routed pockets. This is a quick upgrade for furniture restorations, dollhouse drawers, or custom cabinetry projects.
Pendant Light Spacer & Shade Layer
Create a layered, modular pendant lamp by stacking bushings on a central rod as decorative spacers between translucent disks (acrylic, wood, or thin metal). The nylon gives electrical insulation and a clean white accent; alternate with colored rings for a modern look. Useful for low-voltage fixtures and craft lighting.
Kinetic Wind Chime / Garden Spinner
Drill a small center hole (if needed) and string bushings into vertical chains or radial arms to build weatherproof wind chimes and spinners. Their low weight and durability make them ideal for outdoor mobiles; paint with UV-resistant paint and use stainless steel hardware to increase longevity.
