Sprues!

[Skarekrow07]

I have sprues...lots of them...and i dont want to just through them away...does anyone know a place to dispose of them or if anyone will take them...or if they are recyclable?

[Fizzics]

they are plastic... throw them in the recycling.

[BuFFo]

Why recycle. You won't change a thing. Just burn them in your backyard. This planet is already a deforested sewage dump anyway.

[fade_74]

Run em through the ol' food processor, and use the resulting particles for ground cover.
If a gamer buddy gets married, (it's possible) throw them instead of rice.
One word.....Hamsterbedding.
Build a plane Mcguyver.
Make letters and teach your kids the alphabet.
Show one to a non gamer and say...."Should this have come out of me?"
Make a sign out of them that says "Will work for Meltaguns"
Toothpick anyone?
Put one in your omlette at Denny's and pretend to choke on it.
Put one in your mouth and really choke on it. No...not like David Carradine.
Take a box of them to a friends house in the middle of the night and tell them "keep it secret...keep it safe"
Use them to stab your voodoo dolls of mellisia and buffo.
Whittle them down and put them with the coffee stirrers at the office.
Make a whole terrain set out of them and call it "GW headquarters".

fade...now...that is an answer...

[Spleen_stealer]

cut them up base coat them yellow and Switch them with french fries at mcdonalds... (no one will notice!!)

[DrLove42]

I've seen them cut down and used as scaffolding around building...

[darthrex354]

this is a little over the top but i used files, exacto and a brutal disregard for my health to turn sprue bits into melta barrels. i discovered that if you flatten the mag and ad a bit of the above sprue all those usless guard grenade launchers make cool looking melta guns

[Brass Scorpion]

My empty sprues go into the weekly county plastic recycling.

Really? No one knows about this program (http://http://www.wargamesfactory.com/Recycle)?

Best thing to do with sprues, IMO, if you're not cutting them up as rubble.

[Lord Azaghul]

Best thing about those necrons: totally GW tourniment legal, made from 100% gw purchased materials! Wow what a brillant idea!

That's... totally appropriate. It even looks surprisingly good.

[Duke]

Wow, what a collossally awesome waste of time! That is cool.

[BrotherAlpharius]

I would like to find somewhere in England that recycled sprue. I have kilos of the stuff and could probably build a whole cities of death table from sprue like that building further up the thread. I like the Wargames Factory scheme but shipping the stuff to the USA rather defeats the whole object. I might as well just burn them myself instead of the jet fuel that would be used!

My local council only takes plastic bottles. They specifically exclude rigid plastic items.

You know what company this would really seem right up the alley of? Mantic Games. I'm going to shoot them an email and suggest it.

I am always laughing and in a good mood!

Not my fault if everyone else has the pessimistic attitude that everything anyone types on the interwebs is cerius bidness.

[Spleen_stealer]

I see mold lines...

i use sprue to make my GS modelling tools, i always have the tool for the job. other than that, the necron army is a good idea, might do it for LoTR, anything is better than that heap of S*** game and miniatures.
