I think it should just go in a woodchipper and have chipboard made out of it. They need *something* to make low-quality speaker cabinets out of, why not use a PRS?

Ha Ha 100% agree

Or the new 'PRS' furniture range by Ikea

My mate keeps pretty much everything from the wood he uses, and if the scraps are too small he sands them to dust and puts the dust in old tic tax boxes for repair or filling work. I have a box of ebony dust myself which has proved useful on numerous occasions. Although that might be offset by the abrasives used ha ha.

i have actually done that, but there is only so long you can do it for before you have as much as you are ever going to need.

I have had a few reasons to clear out crap in the past few years, the drinks straws filled with random coloured saw dust i might need one day were the first to go, off cuts not long after, guitars i was not happy with just after that and much harder to justify scrapping - but with a whole house to sort out and a workshop to empty i didnt get chance to process all those guitars down to more useful scraps

To be fair, if you think PRS are bad, then you ought to visit a big far eastern factory... PRS probably create a very small number of rejects due to their low output numbers (relatively so) - when you have a factory churning out literally 1000s of guitars in a batch, even a 5% QC fail rate creates a lot of dead instruments/scrap wood.

Is that quarter sawn?

Cacofonix

Declined offer at £25.00.

He knows it's worth way more than that.
