Hardware disposed of in a toilet

PCB Creations

Maybe your little ones like to throw things down the toilet (you remember when you did, right?), but now there's a toilet made of things you coulda have thrown down there, but wouldn't: High-tech hardware.

The Royal Data Throne is from PCB Creations and sold on Etsy, the marketplace of meshugunah. The Royal Data Throne may not be the best option for cold, winter mornings, but then at 12 inches by 11 inches by 5 inches, you're not going to be using this thing unless you're a duck. And maybe not even then. This crazy head will set you back $500.

"The Royal Data Throne is a place where data is ... disposed," says PCB Creations. "This is a fun sculpture that is full of detail, it has guts in the tanks and a secret hiding place for your ... data under the lid."

The artist, Steven Rodrig, uses "mainly include recycled printed circuit boards and electronic components salvaged from other computer gadgets," he says. "I hope you will find the beauty that is the PCB as I have; it has been a wonderful journey in discovering how to get this unbendable material to become part of many pieces of art."

It is a thing of beauty, but not for dooty, er, duty, that is.
