I know alot of people use there scrap HIPS for repair strips and maybe other things as well.
Just today I was stumbling around the shop looking for a mixing stick for my bondo......and I thought HEY Idea I can cut the edges off my last pull for a perfect size stir stick.



BAM, a stir stick......



a very simple tip, but I thought I would share.

Great idea! And to add to it, bigger pieces of HIPS scrap, say 8x10 inches make great Bondo mixing boards, and just like the ones you can buy, after the bondo sets, you can flex the mixing board, and the dried stuff pops right off.
