Make a Serving Bowl from a Vinyl Record

If you'd like to create a unique gift for music lovers you can make a serving bowl by heating a vinyl record until it becomes malleable enough to form a bowl.

Youtube user mururuoar shows in the video above how to create such a bowl. There are a few variations on technique if you look around but all involve setting your oven to a low temperature, adding the record, and forming the hot vinyl around an existing bowl to get the shape right.

You'll not want to do this with a record that has any collector's value or that someone might want to listen to again, but it's a great way to make an interesting gift out of the stacks of polka records at your local thrift shop.
