what to do with extra cardboard strips?
i need some suggestions guys
i have a shitload of cardboard strips (http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff281/daniel262b/P1010003.jpg), leftovers from some project i had
all strips are 1 millimeter thick, so they're pretty tough, yet slightly flexible.
i was wondering what i could build out of what i have, as i'd hate to just throw away all that good cardboard. I might try some furniture, but right now all i could use is a box with multiple compartments to hold my pencils, which i will make today.
None of the strips are wide enough to be A5-size book covers.
any ideas on what i could do with all that material?

Glue them all together and smash that synovial cyst on your wrist.

I had to make a bridge out of manila paper once. It was pretty cool, give it a shot you don't even need to use all the cardboard.
