What would you do with this wheel?

I have this 19.5" one piece RV that is junk, the bolt holes are wallowed out and wouldn't be safe to use. I hate scraping auto parts if there is still some use for them. I can't think of any good use for it so I'm turning to the FTE brain trust to come up with some ideas. The most useful the better but also the most humorous the better. I know there are some who think differently in this group so let's hear from you.

I was considering using it for the air hose in my shop but this thing weighs 40+ pounds. I do need a better hose storage but I'm thinking retractable hose reel. I'd really need some strong fasteners to hold it to the wall.

I have retractable electrical extension cords handing from the ceiling in my shop. They're really nice to have, eliminates using extension cords laying on the floor.

How about a wall clock? Of course I'd have to hang it someplace where if it fell it wouldn't kill someone
