I never knew - never had a CLUE what wonderful equipment was sitting right under my nose at our family manufacturing plant until I started blogging in November 2010. All sorts of saws, metal equipment painting booth silk screening area and so much more. Plus vintage metal desks and chairs (like my Red Rooster Drafting stool) and shelving just screaming for new life in gorgeous colors! (Oh, how I wish there were more hours in my day!)
For a quick indoor project (yes, we are also having record highs in the 100s and Code Orange air all week like so many of you) I grabbed some old circuit boards and glued some thin cork on the bottom. These are 3-3/4" x 3-3/8" in size.
Turned them over and coated them with acrylic sealer to waterproof them, then tied them up with some twine laying around. This is a gift for one of my sweet geeky friends!

And just in case you didn't already know, e-waste (electronic waste) is a very fast growing waste problem for the earth (But, I bet you already knew that!) We have hundreds of obsolete circuit boards at our company alone. So, look for more circuit board projects, both large and small, to be posted soon!
Happy rest of the weekend!
Good that you are finding uses for some of the waste we are creating.
