I have a fairly radical idea... how about you put it in an engine and make it go round and round?

Bolt a flywheel on it and on the other end a piece of square wood and make a bed side table.

ahemm <cough> <cough> you lot are not appreciating what you are seeing.
This crank is a bit unusual, see standard crank below. Can't bolt a flywheel on as it has 8 bolt holes.

Six months... pah!
My attention span doesn't last that long! A fortnight at most, then it must go for pennies as I will no doubt have my eye on the next useless
purchase!

Half a dozen self tappers and a 1/8 bit and your well away.

Crank has 8 bolt holes plus one dowel hole, standard crossflow flywheel has 6 bolt holes, cannot remember if it has dowel hole.
I don't think welding up the crank or a flywheel then re-drilling is viable or safe.
Pretty sure Burton Power could make one with the correct number of holes and pcd.
