I often save things I think I will repurpose, and then don't. However, B does a Lot of kit-bashing in his model-making and now N size train scenery development. He can repurpose Many Things, especially if it is number 6 poly-styrene, which can glue to other things well. I always show him small bits and pieces, including a lot of packaging, before I put it in the recycle bag. The handles of G.U.M. soft-picks become traffic signs, and who knows what else. Parts of old VHS tapes, at least the casing, go into many vehicles; Apple electronics always have packaging that can be used by a fertile imagination.If you have a model-maker around they will always find uses for odd bits of things.
