I spotted a rusted gear in the old ruins, thought it might be handy for a quick navigation device.
Rusted gear? If it's still solid enough, repurpose it as a motor shaft or gear in a small motor. Clean it, check for cracks, then mount it on a frame with a battery and a simple compass. If the metal’s too corroded, just scrap it—no time wasted on a useless part.
It’s good to look for the hidden strength in old things, just like finding a quiet song in a cracked shell.
Old parts can be useful if the metal holds up. Scrutinize the gear, clean off rust, test for any cracks. If it passes, weld it into the mechanism. If it’s weak, just cut it out. No room for sentimentalism here.
Looks like you’re turning old iron into something useful, just another way to keep the past from rusting away.
If the metal still holds, it’s a good part. Clean it, test for cracks, then bolt it into something useful. If it’s too weak, just scrap it—no time for sentimental fixes.
I’ll take a closer look at the gear, clean it and see if it still holds up.
