Creative
Industrial Jewelry
Turn each corrosion-resistant pivot bar into an industrial pendant, bracelet link, or earring. Clean and polish the metal, add a patina or clear coat, drill a small hole if needed, and attach jump rings, leather cords, or chains. The tongue shape and profile create a distinctive mechanical look that appeals to steampunk and minimalist markets.
Tilt-Frame Photo Display
Use the pivot bars as the hinge mechanism for small tabletop or wall photo frames that tilt for display or cleaning. Mount a pair to a wooden backing and attach the frame sash to the tongues so pictures can be angled or removed easily. This leverages the part's original tilting function in an artful home accessory.
Miniature Hinge for Dollhouses & Models
Repurpose the pivot bars as working window/door hinges in dollhouses, architectural models, or scale furniture. Their precise, sturdy metal construction gives realistic motion and scales well for detailed builds. Secure with small screws through the existing holes and finish to match the model.
Upcycled Hooks & Wind Chimes
Mount pivot bars on a reclaimed wood board as a set of industrial hooks for keys, small tools, or jewelry. Alternatively, make a wind chime or mobile by suspending multiple bars with wire or chain—the metal will add weight, texture, and a pleasing metallic sound when they touch.
