Ideas for old wet suit?

[stanw]

I have an old wetsuit that someone gave me that I never intend to use. Before I throw it away, I was just curious to see if anyone had any ideas for I might be able to use material from it or do something with it?

Thanks.

If you were in our area, our shop would recycle it for you. We have a local business that makes a variety of items to sell using old wet suit material.

knee pads? Cut the arms off and make a shorty? Cut the legs off and make a neoprene bathing suit?

Send it to me.

I can use the neoprene as gasket material for the pet caskets that I make.

You could make a lot from it, I can't think of something that wasn't already said at the moment, but why not sell it as a wetsuit to someone.

I cut them up and use them as mats around my boat. Works good for sitting tanks on to keep the fiberglass in good shape. I also use the mats right infront of the tuna door for when I bring large (300+ lb) tuna's on the boat so they don't bruise themselves up as bad while I am getting ready to bleed them.

I paid $95 for my neoprene dome-port cover.

DIY Seat covers similar to what these guys do:

Car Seat Covers | Waterproof Neoprene Automotive Seat Covers | Wet Okole Hawaii (http://www.wetokole.com/)

That's an idea for my motorcycle when I get back if these folks can't help me out.

Wetsuits can be utilized when working with Autistic people in some situations.

I had a cat who loved neoprene strips. He could dig his claws in them, bite them and toss them around. Much cheaper and lasts longer than cat toys.

I made a pair of neoprene socks out of an old 6.5 mil suit that was junk. I still use them. All I did was take a pair of worn out picasso freediving fin 3 mil socks, cut one sock apart at the seams and used the parts as a pattern. Worked great!

If you like to rappelle, the arms and legs make a great rope protector. :-)

The suit is dirty with holes, that is why I was thinking of tossing it and not giving it to anyone else., however, I am liking some of these ideas.

What would you recommend for disinfecting the suit?

Thanks!
