I salvaged the drawers from a dresser a while back, for the 1/4" solid oak but I'm left with these curved fronts, plywood with a mahogany veneer. I can't think of a good use for them. Trash or treasure?
Sorry, they were face down but I'm sure most of us have seen old mahogany veneered dressers before.
With the holes already drilled for the pulls, the only thing I can think of to use them for besides curved drawer fronts is as a sanding block for large radius inside curves.
I can tell you one this is certain. A week after you trash them, you find a project that they would have worked on, and you'll be kicking yourself in the ass for it !

On the other hand if you do not trash them now you will never find a use for them and they will clutter your place for as long as you own it. You choose.
I have a doubt pile of pieces that I keep around for a month or 2 and if I haven't used them by then I throw them out.
Just can't hang on to all that stuff or your shop will become overrun.
I just burned 2 wheelbarrow loads of cut offs and took another truck load of scrapwood to the dump. I burned a couple wheelbarrow loads last fall, another couple last spring I have no trouble burning scrap, it's deciding what is or isn't scrap, lol.
