Global Scale Modeller

I know this is a strange question but what do you do with all your on Sprues once you have built the model?

Circular file mate (the bin).

Once I know they're done and I don't want anything for spares its into the recycling and out of the way!

I chuck them too. I've seen people stretching them to make cables and rigging, but that's beyond my skill level at the moment!

there's always more sprue, no point in keeping it. My spares go into a zip lock bag labeled as what type of vehicle..ie panzer 3

I keep some for aerials and scratch building stuff and also some goes in the sprue goo pot if its getting low, the rest unfortunately goes in the bin.

Trash.

I tend to cut out the straight parts if they are long enough
Some get used as paint stiring sticks and others end up in the pencilsharpener if i need to make more filler but i made a lot last time so most gets cut up and goes in the plastic recycling bag for pick up
