When I started out, with a handsaw, I used to get all these little triangles of wood instead of shavings.
With the nicer ones I'd pin them together to get a tiny inside-out frame, rebate on the outside. Then we'd make little boxes and these inside-out frames would be their lids - a marble or a wooden ball glued in the centre filled the hole. Used to sell them at craft shows - sometimes just the 'lids' with no box!

Did you know that if you get enough packets of Pork Scratchings and stick all the bits together in the right order, you can make a pig.
Once upon a time my cousin seriously considered opening and Irish-themed pub with adjacent curry house just so she could call it "Bombay Mick's"

Thanks for the welcome Guys and Gals..I wondered about preparing a little corner of the garden and sprinkling the stuff about in the hope that next spring I might get a nice little patch of moulding bushes or trees. I could be the first purveyor of GM free, organic, free range, planet saving mouldings. I won't feel so guilty about my carbon footprint then. (Mrs G was extremely cross about that and still hasn't managed to remove the stain from the cream carpet). I bet none of your customers get the chance to select their moulding whilst wandering around in a moulding garden...mmmm, a potential winner methinks.... Any suggestions what to do with the mountboard off cuts? A multicoloured mountboard mulch perhaps?
Serioulsly though, I took a big bag of it along to the allotment last week and burnt it in the incinerator bin thing.. forgot though that I had recntly made 50 frames for an exhibition using a polymer moulding..mmm that stuff burns well with some rather black and pungent smoke.. oh dear.. there goes the planet!

morso excrement
Hiya,
I use my chippings to light my fire with they're great for getting the house warm really quickly especially in the cold weather, as for my mount board scrap if i can i put them into frames made from scrap and sell them at car boot sales if they're not big enough i give them to the local school and they use them to display the childrens artwork or they make cards out of them as for my glass i take it to the dump in a cardboard box we don't have a glass recycling bin so it gets dumped in with the rest my parents greenhouse is forever being attacked with footballs so i go to alternate recycling dumps i have three all within reach of me so i never take glass to the same one.

Insider, Your only way is to burn Morso chips
Yes I have a Chimenea as well and fill it whenever a good Saturday night comes along.
First take a good friend, and a bottle of malt ,glenmorangie or something of equal standing.
Light Chimenea,and wait until fire is worth sitting down to.
Pour Drams.
Sit down in front of Chimenea and put the world to rights.
Add more morso cuttings and stay out until chippings are gone or until the world has been put right
Or until aforementioned drams are done.
Dead easy here in Scotland...Norrie
