ricklab Posted September 9, 2017 Report Posted September 9, 2017 Any ideas on uses of small pieces of wood left over from intarsia projects? I have done some coasters, cutting board by glueing up pieces. Any other ideas, suggestions? Most pieces are 1 - 2" by up to 4". Quote
jscottj Posted September 10, 2017 Report Posted September 10, 2017 I have resawn some of my scraps using pushsticks on my bandsaw to make refrigerator magnets, Christmas ornaments, or other types of smalls for box lids etc. Quote
spirithorse Posted September 10, 2017 Report Posted September 10, 2017 you can make some miniature intarsia and refrigerator magnets. Perhaps some are long enough for name plates or glue some up to make them large enough for name plates. God Bless! Spirithorse Quote

JOE_M Posted September 10, 2017 Report Posted September 10, 2017 You make even smaller intarsia pieces with the scraps... http://www.scrollsawvillage.com/forums/topic/25565-finished-a-few-more-smalls-this-weekend/ Quote
Jim Finn Posted October 5, 2017 Report Posted October 5, 2017 I had accumulated lots of wood scraps of various spices over the years. I used them all up by glueing them together into a block and making bandsaw boxes of them. Ended up making over twenty of them and sold them all. Time consuming, but got rid of a lot of scraps. I have started to accumulate more scraps now. Quote
