    Default Any scrap value in Pattern Plank 1052 dense urethane

    Does anyone know if there is any scrap value in pattern plank 1052 which is a dense urethane used for building patterns? The original cost of the material is quite high so figured there could be some value in the used material pieces. If there is no value will a recycling center at least take it so I don't have to pay to dump it? Thanks for any input.

    How much in weight or size of pieces? I probably have 1000 pounds, maybe more. Haven't pulled them all down off the racks. As for size pieces vary from small to a couple that are 8 inches by 12 inches by 18 inches. The big pieces are made of smaller pieces glued together so they are not solid chunks. These are all patterns. Most are positive/negative so there are some nice chunks of material in them still.

    If they are irregularly shaped patterns, then no; not really. But if you cut them into rectangular blocks, then people would probably buy them for small projects.

    I thought about that but is the time and effort worth the money? The offered to give the material to the pattern maker we use who actually made all these patterns but he didn't want to bother either. That could be because he was getting away with charging for starting with new material. Hahahahaaa

    Anyone know if this would be considered TPU? (thermoplastic polyurethane)
