What is a good use for 1/8 " Brass

[blgoode]

I have access to some 1/8" Brass......looking for ideas to use it on.

ANYTHING .............Buler...Buler?

B.,guards, buttcaps,spacers. You can laminate other metal, such as 99.99 silver to it for nice results, too.

Sharpen em each end and play mumblety peg.

Sharpen one end like a small chisel stick a handle on it and make an epoxy clean up tool. (The brass won't sratch the steel)

PINS

Buy some tubeing make Mosaic Pins.

Gap rod

Make little culry hooks

Cut two inch pieces and make a punk Mr. Potato head.

stacked handles....just be careful while grinding because it can heat up and delaminate.

Is it round pin stock, flat bar stock or sheet? All sorts of uses come to mind. Do you have access to enough that you're willing to share at a fair price?

its 1/8 flat. It is irregular shaped pieces. The guy at work hase a little. Its not an awfull lot but its very tempting. What size do you need?

 

[J. MacDonald]

Scraps, no smaller than 1x3x 1/8 (.125). Of course, bigger is better when it comes to metal scraps.

Larger hunks would be better. I have a bandsaw and I'll save you the labor..
