Collecting scrap hardwoods

Hi. I am looking to make use of nice scraps of hardwood to make dice boxes. I will be making blanks of approximately 2in x 9in x 1.5in, so any pieces larger than that work for me! Hate to see stuff so to waste now that we no longer have a scrap area really. Feel free to text me at 208 901 2374 or dm here

The trash cans in the woodshop are a great place to look. I’ve turned a lot of pens out of ā€˜trash’ wood :wink:

So – the woodshop scrap thing has moved over by the ā€œMember Exchange Shelfā€. Since it’s way over there, it’s not getting as much stuff as it used to, but it’s there.

No, the new shelf is literally less then 3 feet away from the old one! It’s on the pallet right under the pallet racks behind the first aid bag
But I have an egregious amount of scraps I’ve been holding on to that I’d happily give away knowing they’ll be used. I’ll place them on the shelf under the pallet racks tonight and help yourself, take the whole box if you’d like to

Great. I am around currently so if you are up here in the next couple hours I will be here to get it

Talking about scrap wood, I doubt anybody would have some thin pieces a quarter especially darker would that I could mount a I have an orange storage box up front and you can just slip a man thank

I’ll be there in the next hour or so

I went home but I will swing by in the morning to pick it up

I have a bunch of scrap walnut and other various hardwoods you can have. I make larger pieces so I’ve a stack of pretty good sized scraps. I’ll be up on thurs and fri

Left you what I hope is enough if not I have more but it’s got your name on it in the scrap area by the work benches near the woodshop so unless someone steals it it’ll be there waiting for you

great, that sounds perfect! Let me know when you drop it off and I will swing by to pick up

I saw a couple pieces but no box. Did I miss the box or maybe someone else picked it up

The storage place across the street closes at 8(which is pretty annoying) but that’s where I keep all my wood and that’s where the scrap boxes are and I didn’t make it down that way early enough to get it, so the box is still pending haha
Also I realize now I spelled your name wrong, for which I apologize

Oh ok haha that’s where I keep mine too. Public storage.

Do let me know when you drop anything off so I can swing by. No other plans to be down there in the next few days. If it is easier I can go to your unit with you as well.

I’ll go up there after work, I’ll pm you when I’m headed there with my unit number

Ok my number is 2089012374 that’ll be easier. I have an appointment at 5:30 so may not be able to make it today if that conflicts

Are you looking for 1/4"? PM me. I have a bunch of milled mesquite I could give some to you. Most pieces are 44" x 5". Jeff

I don’t think that will really work for my needs. I pretty much need at least 3/4 in. Thanks
