    Mouse on the scrap pile

    I was adjusting/testing/practicing resawning on my new(used) BS and as I was slicing scrap 2x4, it occurred to me that the sheets may make an interesting mouse pad. Sure enough, after a few coats of poly and lamininating it to my existing pad... it works great

        Very nice idea. I have a small piece of cocobolo that I've been trying to decide what to do with. That would look great!

                John,

                that's one heck of an inventive concept. You might have a real "Pocket Change" idea there.

                If I were you, I wouldn't show it again without a © sign and your name and year, you could be sitting on somethng there.

                      I did think about it briefly. then I realized most who would be interested would just make there own. I thought it might be a nice little "Ooops I forgot to get so and so an Xmas present and the stores are closed" present
