I tried, ended up tossing them. I like the mayo jars for storage better.

They hold abrasive disks for a side grinder pretty well.

Glue 9 of them into a square and make a Tic-Tac-Toe board for the
grandkiddies !

Paint dead CDs red one side black on the other.


Great, just gave away my 'make millions' idea.

Oh well.....
have fun..

Got a bandsaw and a fine blade, with a kerf the same width as a CD
thickness ?

Clamp an inch or so of CD's together tightly (the CD-R store is useful
for this) and then saw 8 radial slots into the edge. Do a few
hundred, throw away the cracked ones, and you've made a slot together
construction toy.

Especially pretty with 15 seconds microwave time to craze the optical
surface of a CD-R wthout melting it.
