Late to the party, but the wooden circles could be used as locking rollers for french cleat tool holders. Just drill an off centre hole in them and add a screw or dowel as the lever. They can then be attached to the back of a tool holder and then rotated to lock it into place so it doesnt come off the cleat.

[@gungagalunga7761]

Suggestion for the circle cutouts: My neighbor is a retired gentleman from the Ford motor company. He worked the assembly line. In his retirement he makes dozens of wooden vehicles (dump trucks, pick-ups, planes, bulldozers, fire trucks etc.) All have working parts and completely made from wood alone. He uses the cut outs for wheels. Come Christmas time he'll have made maybe 50 toys made from scraps and donates them to daycares, orphanages, Toys-4-Tots etc. so that underprivileged kids get something special and made with love. Now that my son is all grown up, I can't give up the trucks Bobby made for my boy. I have them displayed proudly in my workshop!

[@4cubedwoodworks]

Very nice idea. Thanks!

I used to make Conestoga wagons for my kids. A little canvas for the top, bailing wire for the hoops, and the extra round cutouts for the wheels.

My daughter received a tiny wooden cradle (about 6”) with a tiny baby doll (5”) once when she needed to spend a day outpatient at our local children’s hospital. It was such a precious little gift that she adored. It completely overshadowed the very unpleasant testing she endured that day. It was all she talked about and the only thing she played with for a long time afterwards. It was probably 15 years ago, and she still has it. Never underestimate the power of a handmade-with-love gift. It was just 5 little pieces of wood, but it transformed my daughter’s traumatic day into one filled with love and wonder. As a family, we are now learning woodworking together. She wants to make tiny cradles for scared little girls like she was.

For the round cutouts, if you route the edges and put a dowel in it you have wooden tops. The dowel can be pointed with a pencil sharpener. You can also make yo-yos, feeder-rollers for your saws, drawer pulls, coathooks, furniture wheels, container stoppers, and if you put a wide rubber band on it and lazer engrave the sides they can be roller stamps for applying designs to your projects.

2:30 An idea for those hole-saw circle offcuts: How many times have you had a metal patio chair with legs designed to set on a concrete patio or deck, but you have it in the yard or on a gravel pad, and the legs poke into the dirt or dig into the gravels? Usually those legs have a plastic plug, like a stopper in the end of the tubing. Simply drill a hole up into the bottom of that plug and attach that circle onto the leg with a washer and screw. The circle functions like a little snowshoe for the leg and prevents that poking or digging in. Paint them the color of the chair leg if you like. And if you want to remove them later, the drilled hole left behind in the plastic plug is no problem, as it'll function like a weep hole for any moisture that gets trapped anywhere in the tubing!

[@4cubedwoodworks]

That’s excellent. I love that idea. Thanks

[@billparrish4385]

@@4cubedwoodworks My pleasure! And I don't have a deck for those screw heads to poke or scratch the wood, but for those who do, just take a larger paddle or Forstner bit and make a countersink for the washer and head.

[@baudgaud]

George Stevenson already mentioned "drum sanders" and I think that is a solution to another issue mentioned in this video itself: Lots of leftover round cutouts, hard to sand the inside of the round cutouts... just knock another 1/8" (or however thick your sandpaper is) off the outside of a couple of circles, bind them together with glue and/or dowels, glue some sandpaper around the outside, and you solved both problems at once. You could also round off and smooth out those leftover circles and bind them together to make a bar for paper towels or toilet paper (depending on the OD of the circle and the ID of the paper towel roll). Or to make any kind of roller you need around the shop or house. You can also bind 2 or 3 of those together and hard-mount them to anything with a backing fence and use them for bending metal scrollwork (you might not need more than 1 depending on how thick or tall your metal piece is). Or cut them in half so they have a flat bottom and use the round tops wherever you want to make some kind of scale or balancing decoration. Or turn that upside down and mount the flat part to anything you want to make into a rocking/seesaw motion.

[@4cubedwoodworks]

Wow. Thank you!

[@BirdYoumans]

I had some drawer pulls that I made for drawers in my shop and I made them by cutting an oval hole the width of my hand and simply putting a pull over that so I could reach into the cavity and pull it out. In making the ovals I used a circle cutter and that left a circle with a flange on it that looked like a train wheel, so my grandkids and I made some train engines out of wood and used them as wheels. Yours doesn't have the flange, but they would make great wheels for kids autos, buses, trains etc. One wooden train set would take several wheels. I mounted them using copper tubing that I inserted into the wheel as a bushing so it would not wear so quickly and then used a lag bold thru that into the body of the engine which was simply a plank of wood with an octagonal shaped body fashioned and placed on the plank for the engine itself. A little cabin was placed behind the hex to depict the cab of the train. It was a steam train of course. A good time was had by all!!

[@4cubedwoodworks]

That sounds great. I love that. Thanks

Make a puck shooter. All of those pucks become ammo. Or use them like clay pigeons for a skeet shoot. Or do both. The things you can do with those is countless. Knobs, wheels for toys, wind chime center piece, jump stops on barn doors, coasters if they are wide enough, glue a bunch together to make a blow gun, put a piece of all thread throw like 20 of them at a time and make a roller table for the end of your table saw, string a bunch together to make one of those rain spout things they use instead of a down spout, put them on the sound box you made so they look like a toy wagon, put two together connected with a dowel in the center to make a yoyo, glue them all together with a piece of all thread thru them to make roller pins for the kitchen, turn them into jar lids like you see on candles, string a bunch together to make those door way bead things that hang from the top of a doorway, make toy tops (the kind you spin and let go on a table),etc etc etc. Or you can feed the wood burner with them.

Idea for circles. Cloth check board set. Use the circles as checkers. The hole in the middle can be used for a string or dowel. The cloth checker board to be wrapped around the checkers.

I would make a magnetic soap holder from the cut out: a piece of dowelling about 25mm thick and 75mm long, screwed into the cut out from the back. Screw a countersunk magnet to the end of the dowel, pointing downwards. The magnets I use have a diameter of 15mm and are 3mm thick. A beer bottle top pressed into the top of a moistened soap bar makes a great "receiver" for the magnet. You can use double-sided tape to attach the holder to the wall in your bathroom or kitchen. Make sure the soap is moist before you press the bottle cap in, otherwise the soap will likely not be caught properly by the bottle cap. You only have to do this moistening exercise once.

[@4cubedwoodworks]

[@TheWadetube]

If you have a source of wax or heavy grease from cooking, you can put four or five of your wheel cut outs on a stick, like a shiskabab and dip it in a little wax and blow wood shavings from your shaper or jointer or planer to make them prickly like a shrub and then set them ablaze in your wood burning stove or fire place as a fire starter.

Sand the splinters off the edges of the circles.. Glue the center of the circles, and press them on a dowel of snug fit.. Also gluing the circles together as you stack them along the dowel..

A 1-1/2” diameter drum sander, like attaches to a drill, would make sanding the holes easier. Or, you could easily make one from one of the cutouts.

You cut a square base and put 9 dowel rods in the place of the normal tic tac toe squares. Then stack them 3 high so you will have 27 per game board. Take 14 of them and stain them one color and do the rest natural or a different color. Then to play the game you can score points a lot like connect four. Straight in a row on any level diagonal across any level or straight up one post 3 in a row plus the normal ways times 3 levels. It is a hell a lot more fun than the normal tic tac toe.

You can make knobs for jigs and shop fixtures. You need a small 5"x5" board with the same diameter hole as the round pcs you have, cut out of the center of the board. Next using a 3/8" to 1/2" drill bit, drill 4 holes evenly around the cutout in the board so half of the drill bit bites into wood and the other half of the bit is in the empty area of the cutout. Then place the round of wood into the cutout and drill into it with the corresponding drill bit you used,(3/8 or 1/2") into the holes already drilled out. They are now a guide for the drill bit placement to make each knob. It's a reusable jig for making that size knob. I usually use a bolt washer on top and the bottom of the knob. It's a good way to use them. Or you can glue several together on a long threaded rod. Once dry cut a line through them length-wise about halfway. Don't cut right to the bolt. Then cut a piece of sandpaper to fit around the wood cylinder, and tuck the ends into the slot. If they are tight in the slot great, but if they are loose, cut a piece of wood as a wedge into the slot to hold the ends in. Just cut it a little longer than the cylinder and flush with the sandpaper.

Very nice! I’ll definitely do this. Thanks!

[@blackfrost273industries4]

@@4cubedwoodworks ooo, or even, cut in half for handles with a m and t style connection. Maybe a small flourish jigsaw cut away even. Ideas are coming together!

[@Joeswoodworking21]

Those are aweosme proubly really good gift!

[@4cubedwoodworks]

Thank you.

Glue the circles together and use them for lathe stock. (ex Candle stick holders, 1 stem flower vase with test tube insert)

[@4cubedwoodworks]

Cool, thanks

[@Amanda-ev1xz]

For the round cutouts you could sell them as little carving blanks for folks who make jewellery or as I’m sure someone will have already mentioned make little handles - use another hole saw and partially take bites out of the rounds (equally spaced) to create dimples and put a threaded insert in the centre and hey presto …..a knob! 😂

[@4cubedwoodworks]

That’s a pretty good idea. Hadn’t thought about jewelry blanks. Thanks

This would make much more sense for the scraps I have than some of the all day cutting, sanding and glue up of one table. People just starting out with woodworking, especially selling their work would find this so much easier and less frustrating that building bigger items. Thanks

[@4cubedwoodworks]

Sure thing. Thanks!

[@shielaotte9158]

Glue circles together to make "cylinders" then use for table legs, lamps, ect

[@4cubedwoodworks]

Great idea

[@twisteddreams1561]

Bit of salt sprinkled on the glue, will stop them slipping, if you want to try that instead of the brads. Thanks for sharing your process!

[@4cubedwoodworks]

Thanks. I’ve used that before. Works well.

[@georgestevenson6111]

I was contemplating on what to make today, viola, your video popped up. I usually set my phone on my chop saw and bounce the sound off of the fence, this is a great idea, thanks. There's so many things to do with those round left overs, selling them in bundles would make many craters happy, for me i'm going to make drum sanders and sanding wheels, wooden turn knobs, maybe a few games and group some together for a tape dispenser.

[@4cubedwoodworks]

That’s great. Thanks!

Look up the word VIOLA, it is not an expression!

[@markwhited1785]

Nevermind I should have read the details. Very cool.

[@4cubedwoodworks]

Lol

[@rayfortenberry6868]

Use the circles to make hiking sticks or canes.

[@4cubedwoodworks]

Ah. Thanks!

[@lena4533-n7e]

Great video! A suggestion for the cut outs... look into wooden toy food. Those could be little cookies (puddy the hole).

[@4cubedwoodworks]

Ah yes. Thanks!

[@truthseeker3715]

Those circles could be stained different colors then use them for a table top. Resin would make it real cool.

[@4cubedwoodworks]

Nice. Thanks.

[@hedgehog6412]

I made some condiment picnic tables, so I have a bunch of the wooden cut outs too. I was thinking about using them to make little wooden wheel barrows, and little wooden horse drawn carts.

[@4cubedwoodworks]

Nice. Let know how it turns out.
