So it would seem that we are in the process of moving house and apparently our current house is too small for only the two of us….don’t ask

Anyway, in prep I need to clear the garages which are full of part worn (new to me) tyres but I’ve also come across an old alloy wheel off my E class AMG merc which got buckled in a pot hole but looks fine.

Obviously can’t sell it but given we have space to fill with furniture and I’m going to have a man cave for a pool table etc does anybody know of somebody that coverts wheels in to glass topped tables to put my cold beer on?

Here is the wheel

Type in a search engine Toughened Glass Table Top Manufacturers Near Me

Then give them a call.

A typical glass table top in 10mm Toughened Glass with ground and polished edge in the diameter you choose should set you back no more than about £75.

A few small pieces of the Self Adhesive Door Seal applied to the rim to cushion the glass from the metal and you are ready for a few cold beers and a bowl of bar nuts.

Will be a cool feature. My father in law made his own using a V12 E-type block. Uses it as a TV stand/wine rack.
