How many times do I need a 1/2" length of 1/8" styrene whatever ?
Enough times to make saving all the "cutoffs" very worth while. There's just something about opening a new package for so short a piece. I like the feeling that I didn't have to buy, another package of, in order to complete a project.
I even have my styrene bits separated as sheet, strip, rod, and tube. No, not down to size or thickness, but at least to type.

As for paint ? If I look at a bottle of almost dried up, just a drop left, paint, and remember that.....to quote Billy Joel, "I knew it complete when I wore a younger man's clothes", it gets trashed.
We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!
