    Using laminate floor scrap?

    I've just finished putting in two rooms with laminate flooring, so now my garage/shop is full of scrap flooring pieces. I figured I'd keep some of the longer pieces for fences, jigs, etc. but I'm wondering about the smaller stuff.

    Anyone have any examples/ideas of what I might to do with the smaller (6-12") pieces? I'm trying to be a reformed pack rat and only keep stuff that may one day have an actual use.

    Where is the fun in being a reformed pack rat????? If it was leftover pieces of hardwood flooring I'd keep it for smal boxes but laminate <12" I think I'd feed to the landfill monster. Pat

      Popeye, I think Scott (Scottydont) might take exception to this.

        I've used some as drawer sides.

          I made some ZCTP's from laminate floor scraps. Works pretty well.
