What do you do with your cuttings?

[Travis]

What do you typically do with your cuttings? Do you keep them? Give them away? Sell them? I'm curious.

I don't keep to many of my cuttings. I would run out of space real fast. I give some away, donate some to charities(fund raisers) and sell some. The intarsia I do is all sold, usually before I can get it done.

Other than projects I make for my wife I give them away. Haven't sold any, want to keep my amateur standing.

Gifts and sales. Made a few contributions too. Like project Rudolph and local charities.

[edward]

I do craft shows, and some as gifts, and donate to benfits. Edward

Sell, give away, hide under bed from wife...

[wombatie]

Sell quite a bit, gifts for birthdays or Christmas and any John Wayne's that I cut go to my husband. (Yes I've done the one out of the pattern library). Lol

When I first started and ended up with a spare bedroom full we decided to try craft shows and turned out to be a very good way to make enough funds to continue my "hobby" . I also give away, donate, give as gifts and in general have fun with the "hobby".

Most of the things I cut are for friends and family, but I do work for costumers also, and lately what I do most in my free time is making patterns for others, and I do like that a lot. I need to spend more time on my scrollsaw....

[Marshall]

Most of the projects I make I give away for presents , do sell some . during the hot part of the year here I don't do much scrolling at all . Mine is a Winter time hobby or should I say a cool weather hobby .....................Marshall

I have no idea where mine go. I put them in a box and I look in there when I put something else in there their gone. Might have something to do with the neighbors, they stopped coming over when the saw was down. Now that I have it back so are they.

 

I have some ideas going that I'm thinking of selling. Just need to think them through and work them out on paper.

[Uncle Ricky]

I keep some, Sell some, and Give away some.

[Marshall]

I guess I would say that over 80% of the things I cut and finish I give away .............
