    Hi Marilyn ~ I am a compulsive keeper and it seems that doing so at
    my bench is a very good thing,  And, like you know, those bits of
    sandpaper are as irksome as they are handy. 

    When tracking them becomes too much of an exercise in minutia, I put
    the little bits and scraps into a ziploc plastic container that I
    keep at the back of my sweeps drawer.    

    While I use folded and rolled pieces, I also contact cement some
    strips to soft wooden sticks, such as frozen treats handles, or tongue
    depressors, coffee stirrers, and strong toothpicks.  I wrap fat and
    thick ends of chopsticks with it, cementing some of them.. some held
    with a rubber band.  

    It's fun to see how much mileage I can get out of one piece of
    sandpaper, sawblade fragment, bit, bur or charcoal block. <grin> 

Best regards,
Frif..
