What to do with these THINGS?

These are laminated truss scrap I scrounged from a construction site trash heap. Hey free wood you know. They are between 3-4 ft. long and 17.5 inches wide. I thought about another bench but was also thinking about making a couple fire pit benches to go along with a future landscape plan the wife has in mind. Any other Ideas out there??

Too short for a bench top. Rats.
Make great bench legs though.

What about one of those small high benches for dovetailing?
Maybe a small bench for sharpening station?
Base for lathe? Nice and heavy.

Fire pit benches, better idea. Enough there for two.

Envious.

New Kreg 720Pro

I saw the video Kreg put out for this new jig and had high hopes for it.
