how about some cartridge blocks for loading?

Cartridge blocks would wear out a lot of drill bits very quickly !
Corian is so hard and abrasive you have to use carbide cutting tools.

Larger and make cutting boards. If you can get bigger scrap.

I like it. I'd be interested.

I made some cutting boards out of Corian many years ago. They were easy to keep clean, but hell on knives.

There are a few guys making handgun grips out of it. I don't know how they set up to cut out the shapes. An abrasive blade on a saber saw would cut it but unless carbide blades are available for bandsaws, that would wear out bandsaw blades rapidly.

There have to be other uses for the material but I don't have the artistic imagination to come up with many.

I have used corian scraps in a similar manner.

They also make good trivets to protect the table from hot dishes.

Sell em all day long on eBay. Getting money and an education at the same time.
