Upcycling my bones

[Homatron]

I'm sat in a queue with some thinking time... having just worked out that (based on mass alone), my skeleton could supply material for over 5000 bone nuts, I'm wondering what other resources I could be mined for.

 

Is there a better, more musical use for bones? Perhaps I could be turned into a xylophone.

My vote is for turning you into an osteophone.  😉

Haha... touché

Don't forget your skin.  Perhaps you could skin a banjo...

If you take lithium for a mood disorder, you could be rendered down for that. There may be as much as a millionth of a Tesla battery in your body.

... or, if for weird reasons you dislike banjos, then your skin could be used for a Renaissance serpent, that snaky, leather clad wood instrument with a mouthpiece like a trombone.
I'd buy you!

It's starting to sound like with sufficient planning we could equip a folk band!

Also to be used as frets on the Homatone da gamba.

Glue? And of course, Bones themselves:

I’d donate a femur or humerus for a flute/tin (bone) whistle.

A cunning way to stay in the Gear Abstinence challenge, the next time someone with a hip replacement needs a bone nut!

I shall be using my chest hair to manufacture the world's smallest violin bow.
