I have kept every single sprue ive bought for the past three years. now i paint entire army commissions for people, on to pof the crap i buy for myself, so over the years ive accumunlated a lot of sprue.... now if only i could think of something to do with them

Stitch is right, the beast thing (if you dint mind the irregularity in tehs hape) is to cut them down and use them for rubble.

i use the round bits on the corners to externd the legs on my marines before filling them in with GS, and i use shavings to make interesting shapes on my bases.

but, generally, theyre usesless, unless you happen to have an injection moulder, in which case you can just save them and melt them down to use for new sprues. of course not many people have injection moulders

now, the old polystyrene trays were a godsend for buildigns, now we get these crappy plastic trays taht cant be used for anythign other than bitz boxes (which is a good use). but i like polystyrene
