The center section of a lot of steves boxes.  It can also be resawn for thinner projects.  Stand up puzzles. Picture Frames.  Some compound cuttings.  Bases.  Intarsia pieces.  Small crosses.  E-Bay.  Can I make a bid?

If you split the pieces, they would be great for ornaments.  They are almost large enough to do trivets as is.
