I was driving around yesterday and saw these sitting and not really knowing what I was looking at, I was looking from a ways off I asked the guy if I could have them? he said yeah I going to throw them away any ways. so I said I will be back tomorrow. well to my surprise it is all really grade "A" plywood very few knots. they were made to ship parts on to a construction site. now what on earth am I going to do with them hmm they are all 16" x 32" and the runners are 4x4 cut in half.

I have used runners like that to make several bandsaw boxes...and of course you can always find a use for the plywood...

Looks like your going to be very busy. Just watch out for nails and embedded junk that could really screw up the blades on a planer or break the blade of a bandsaw.

Free wood is my favorite kind. I noticed that the skids the steel coil come on at work were a lot heavier than the pine and spruce pallets we usually get. I started saving them and found out that the tops are poplar and the runners are ash, hickory and oak. Planed and resawn they make excellent (if narrow) planks. I also have found some really nice poplar and even a little red oak among the rough cuts that are used as dunnage for outgoing steel. A few of my co-workers are always on the look out for any piece of OSB or plywood they can salvage, but no-one besides me is interested in the hardwood.

Great find,
It'll come in handy for a thousand things. If the wife lets you keep them around long enough to think up uses.
