I like making shit. So when I got this dead ass tortoise my first thought was I had to make something out of it.
Descrip of the dead ass tortoise.
>Mummified as heck.
>All them legs and head chewed off.
>Someone dun popped a cap in it's ass. Looks like it died before that though.
>It rattles a little when shaken.
>Da shell bits aren't well connected to da, bone bits.
>It's dead. (I think.)
>It's like 9"x7"
So now you know what I'm working with. As far as tools available to me, I don't have a band saw which means no cool cross sections and I don't want to take a hand saw to it. I need ideas other than "Encase in resin" or "throw at [Insert asshats name here]" I would prefer ideas that don't involve expensive materials or tools other than basic hand tools, belt sander, drill, wood lathe, chop saw, table saw. I don't want to break the bank over a dead ass tortoise.

Use pig blood for runes

Use its shell as a basis to make a kick-ass figurine of your favourite Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle

I like your brain think, but that's gonna be a huge figure. I don't know if it would be able to fit on my shelf of interesting items.
>>18379639
Clearly your shelf is unworthy of the figure and requires an upgrade.
Turn that dead-ass tortoise into a kick-ass shield/buckler/whatever-the-fuck,-you-get-the-idea. Pretty sure that's possibly something Caedes would maybe consider doing, at the very least.

Turn it into a helmet

>pop plates of shell off, like the middle already has
>get a nice belt
>glue to belt with something heavy like epoxy
>sick fuckin turtle armor belt
>>18379589
A hanging basket?

You can make guitar picks out of the shell. Lots of people want them since they're banned and apparently sound better than plastic

Maybe make a decorative wall mount, possibly make it look like a shield or something.

What is an ass tortoise?

Heard of turtling? Well an ass tortoise is an extra dry turd doing that.
