That is what a majority of my hard wood scraps is for, at least they

I got in that habit more and more when I was learning to turn wood.
Projects and objects d' art seem to quickly turn to scrap and even fly
apart at 3000 rpm.

Plus, after working all afternoon on piece only to have it crack, warp
or break in the final stages ****ed me off. I get a weird
satisfaction out of burning up a broken bowl or cracked Christmas
ornament. I feel like I am getting even.
