I was just playing with something similar after drilling the door handle holes out of 29 doors, I was left with these "Tinker toy" like wooden circles. I started playing with different ways of joining them into objects....
Then I found this. http://www.carwangallery.com/objects.php

Where I live, these are common, but are usually strange looking small dams, and 1000's of meters of obtrusive pipe.
Good on the Norwegians.
