Scrap Wood Gifts - Coasters

Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


Every so often, after enough other projects have either been completed or abandoned, the wood pile in my shop tends to have lots of oddly shaped, small pieces of wood that just aren't big enough to do much with. I imagine most of you are like me when it comes to this trait, but especially on hardwoods, I have a difficult time throwing scraps away, even if I know its such a small amount its unlikely it will get used. Its just such nice wood, and rather expensive.; and In the back of my mind, I always tell myself ill come up with something for it. Usually this is a lie I tell myself and I have a pile full of mismatched odds and ends pieces. To rectify this issue, about once a year I'll make a batch of these end grain coasters. They seem to be popular gifts, and in truth, its kind of a fun little project.
