Fun use for shredded USD?

I have about 10 oz of shredded United States dollars from a mint museum trip a while back. Kind of hate to throw it out because it's kind of cool, but I can't think of a clever use for it. Any ideas? 😁

What about making a cutting board/serving board? Maybe lay it all out on some flat sheet and glue it down, then cover it entirely with epoxy, sand and polish the epoxy so you have a perfectly flat clean surface. No idea how well it would work in practice but in my mind it sounded cool [emoji28]

I second this idea. That could make for such a dope charcuterie board!

Haha, this was my first thought. Package filler for when you sell a watch?

Ha, neat idea! I've never done any epoxy work but I'm an ok woodworker.

Now that would be some baller filler lol. That would be too funny if the buyer realized what it was and had to ask :lol:

You could also use it to decoupage a watch box, as that's where so much of your money is located!

Hahaha
