check with your local co-op, scout troop head masters, 4-H leaders- farmers, the extension office-even the senior center- all of these places will either want them or know someone who really really could use them- elderly retirees who are doing leather work- those people can be very creative- and industrious---most of the tools-materials we take for granted= and just toss out to the landfill- many many people would continue to use.
mine go to my mother- and to the co-op-- i do not know what they do with them- i do know when i said one day...i have these old rotory blades that are no longer usable for cutting fabric- what should i do with them? the guy at the co-op sure got excited about them...and told me if i wanted to just toss them into a container and drop them off any time he sure could use them.
i try to always share instead of sending to the landfill
