Any use for scrap aluminum?

OK, working on some custom turn signal brackets for my bike, and may be making some for some others too, depending on the reception. Anyways, as I'm always a packrat, wondering if there's any use for these scraps of aluminum before I toss them. Just some 1" square(approximately) pieces cut from anodized aluminum angle "iron". 1/6" thick. ANy tips, or just toss 'em?

I use aluminum pieces like that for guards/caps on my magnetic neck knives. Just brush finish them, they also help keep the weight of the knife down. Not a ton but, every little bit counts.

soft jaws for your vice

Thanks guys, think I'll actually use both of these. Still have 3+ feet left of this angle iron, of which I'm hopefully going to make some of these brackets to sell, but will cut some off to pad jaws of vice, as generally been using scraps of leather, and just setting them in there, and hasn't worked well. And J's use for the scraps will work well I think too.

Except of course for fact that both of these encourage my packrat tendencies.
