Greetings
I was recently trimming off a tapered sliver from a wing locker piece. The curled waste that rolled off my snips was intriguing. I riveted it to a circular base and declared it a Christmas ornament. Experimenting a bit with sizes and such, I made a few more which I gave to friends as gifts. They seem amused when I tell them it’s a piece of my airplane that as it turns out, I won’t be needing. If curious, I have attached a low resolution image. A good case can be made that I have been working on this thing too long.
Cheers,
Bill

There is medication for that and it just so happens that I have a recently filled prescription if you need a couple of pills to tide you over....

I also noticed a piece like that the first year I was building and hung it on our Christmas tree. The wife cut her finger on it when she was taking down the tree.
I'll let you guess where she "stored" it.

What color of Scotchbrite did you use to deburr it...?

I made a circular mold to cook a scrambled egg in a round shape AND a doughnut cutter:
