Good use of Boxes inserts

[scrollerpete]

Made lot's of boxes recently and I had all these inserts laying around, I decided to use it for what I call "Redneck Coasters".

I have 2 coats of Tung oil for the finish and I glued some cork under in order to protect the furniture.  Better than the wood pile.

Also I just finish cutting the maple leaf trivet posted on the site, excellent pattern and easy to cut.

There goes your fire wood supply.

Hi Pete:

Good idea.

It's amazing what you can do with the scraps for certain projects

Thanks for showing us

Nice work

I would have never thought of making something from the 'left overs' I get. I just chuck them in my wood burning stove to keep the shop warm. May have to give that  some more thought. Do I use my, otherwise scrap to make other new projects or do I continue to burn them and scroll in the warmth of my shop ? Great Ideas

I love it when nothing is wasted.  They look great and nice shapes too.  You did a fantastic job on the trivet.  Well done Pete.

I might be thick but where are you getting these parts from, what's in the bottom of the boxes you make any pictures or are you talking about the scrolled baskets??

The boxes patterns are from Sheila Landry, the walls of the boxes might be 3 or 4 rings so that's where these come from.

Nice selection of woods you've saved ,I 'd hate to use them just for coasters but what the .Good looking scrolling on the trivit too!

Pete, what a great idea.  I have used some for firewood because I could not think of anything to do with them.  Coasters, WOW I see the light.  Thanks.

Pete, that's a great repurposing of scraps, it's far better than burning them.

Nice stuff.   Great use of the scraps.  I really hate burning scraps of good wood.  You could easily tell that if you saw my shop.  I have lots of little scraps.  Keep thinking they will come in handy if I ever get brave enough to do some intarsia.
