Is this the correct monitor to fix it? Also, is the cabinet itself worth trying to restore or should I be looking at parting? All help is greatly appreciated.
I took one look at this car and knew I was looking at Swamp Thing.

Hi everyone!
I've somehow accumulated around 50 empty tuna cans, and before I send them all to recycling, I'd really like to see if I can give them a second life.
They originally contained about 70g of tuna, and although I don't have the exact dimensions, they're a pretty standard small, shallow metal can.
They're all virtually identical in size.
A few things that might make them useful:
- They're metal
- They're fairly wide and shallow
- The inside edge/rim is rolled and rounded rather than sharp
- I have around 50 of them, so there's plenty to experiment with.
I'm happy to drill, punch, paint, glue, sand, etc.
I'm interested in something useful or genuinely cool, rather than simply making decorative objects for the sake of it
I'm considering things like:
- small planters
- tealight candle holders
- magnetic trays for screws and small parts
- desk/craft organizers
- tiny storage containers
- wall-mounted organizers
- something for camping or outdoor use
- some kind of modular storage system
or perhaps something completely different that I haven't thought of.
I'm also quite open to making sets of something since I have so many identical cans.
If I come up with something particularly nice, I might even make a batch to give away to friends.
So what would you do with them?
If you've seen a clever project using small food cans, I'd love to hear about it.
And if there's a particularly good way of modifying these cans that I'm overlooking, I'm all ears!
Thanks! 😊
My dad bought me this back in 2005 when I moved into my first apartment. It was just before having a Vitamix became popular/mainstream. He has also never been one to get caught up on a brand name if the specs/warranty are better for a lesser known brand. My pops has always been OG BIFL mindset… he’s 78 now and still goes out of his way to BIFL with most things.
Likely coming down from Three Mile Island if I had to guess
Elmer Fudd’s sister’s car… I just imagine it pronounced by him.
Going through my sons backpack from last school year and found this in his back pack along with mulch. He’s 6 and likes to collect things he finds on the playground.
