Over the years, I've had access to two different sizes of heavy-duty cardboard rolls. I've used white glue to put them together. One size made very good plant stands at three different heights, about 8' diameter. I can't decide how to finish the outside. I have another idea every week, some more expensive than others (mirror tiles; thin glass tiles used for backsplashes; plastering stencils for a raised effect, embossed wall paper, etc.). Cardboard circles were glued on the top and bottom after putting plastic bags of river rock pebbles to give them stability. Paper bags can be stripped and glued to cover the horizontal seams, just like covering the seams of gypsum board on the walls and ceilings. I also added the paper bag strips to reinforce the end circles seams. My first project turned out two different heights of small tables with a glass circle for the top. The rolls were 8-1/2' long with about a 4' diameter (used for the old, old IBM copy machines. I used a 'stone granite' textured spray paint around the outside and down into the tops. I should have primed them first. The textured paint was expensive, even years ago.

My Father had a similar situation at his work. He collected these 'rings' for many months. He had thousands of them. He glued them side-by-side and created a wall. Actually it was three walls; it enclosed his shop area that we had in our basement at the time. Kept a lot of the noise out of our play area, while he worked away in his shop. He even colored the rings when he was through. It was quite impressive.
