Matt Taylor in the UK made a clipboard out of a non-working LCD screen. Matt says, "Possibly the most expensive clipboard ever made, except NASA have probably made something a lot better." (No link, just photos above.)

Be careful; the chemicals used in LCDs are pretty noxious. Since an LCD is not exactly the paragon of strength, especially under point loading (such as from a pen), you may end up leaking that stuff.

Aaah! Well, it seems quite sturdy this one, and to be honest i'm probably not going to use it that much.
Just seems a shame to chuck it away hehe.
Luckily i've not put these bad boys into full production or else there'd be a product recall!
Thanks for the advice! I shall handle with care. (Mind you working in a school as an IT Tech, kids like to do stuff like poke screens and rip out mice, hence we usually purchase glass screen lcd's).
