I know people use the handles from old graflex flash handles as prop lightsabers..
But does anyone have any use for the reflector disks?
i suppose they would be good for making a desk lamp. But desk lamps are not hard to come by.
Anything else?
 
Solar cookers for Vienna sausages? lol. (In the U.S. those are basically tiny hotdogs that come in a can, I would hope they are actually something good in other countries.)
I like Jim's idea, but also don't rule out desk lamps. Sure, there are no shortage of desk lamps, but using a flash reflector would make something interesting and unique.

Of course, spares for people who would need them is also a good idea.
 
Ive been thinking about mounting one on the trunk (boot) of my car to dissuade nighttime tailgating.
 
cover the open section and use for soup bowl?
 
I could see converting them to an interesting hanging lamp. Not sure my wife would agree.
 
I use them to take photographs with flashbulbs, so since you have no use for them send them to me.
 
They do make beautiful desk lamps when fitted with a halogen bulb.... or just as a finishing touch like jewelry on display cameras.

got any pix of them?
