This is a great thread, Paul.
I've learnt a lot of great ideas on this one!
I recycle some of these things like the sticks and containers etc. And my dad did too.
These were given to me by my dad when they downsized a few years back. I think they're old Telecom rotary dial containers. And they're full of recycled fastenings etc.
Although thinking about the square shaped containers people have suggested here, I might look into more space efficient containers... Lol
The unlabelled ones on the top are empty.
I don't usually have to buy new screws etc. but it sure takes a while to find, say, 8 matching 1" 4G brass screws I might want to use for a project...lol

I recycle old tools I find it great pleasure to bring something back from the Rusty Dead.
Cheers Matt.

while appreciating your expertise, it must be nice to have little else on the go.
I sold our business 2 years ago, supposedly retired a year ago, , and get depressed looking at the list of things that need / want doing around the house, get so depressed I crash and dull my senses in front of this stupid computer. Then at end of week get even more frustrated cause Ive achieved so little.I would love to grow my own food, but I can not find bacon seeds

Tonto, I absolutely feel your pain. The internet is a stupendous waste of time. It is best to turn the router off at the wall at 9am!

How is this for recycling?
I'm a hoarder, can't throw anything away so when we had a shin of beef (discounted on specials counter at s/market) for Sunday roast a few weeks ago the left over bone looked too useful to put in the bin.

So after de-greasing, bleaching, drilling, fitting some feet and a brass tube for the pegs, I now have (another) cribbage board.

That's a very unique and great looking cribbage board, Mark! I love it.
My grandfather, who I inherited a lot of old hand tools from (which got me into woodworking), taught me how to play crib as a young boy of 6 or 7. He used to play it with me every time I visited. He used to make his own boards from timber. I will always remember him teaching me to count score...15-1, 15-2, 15-3...

Great job on the crib board. Shows some dedication making it out of bone. I use bone blanks to make guitar nuts but the smell off the sander is a bit overpowering so I take the extra time to do the filing and sanding by hand.
Crib is my favourite card game.
Regards
John
