Can anyone think of a practical application for sanded epoxy putty powder?

Posted in Custom Workstation

I managed to gain a small collection of epoxy putty fragments from various projects over the years and have had no way of disposing of them (I have concerns about simply tossing them in the trash). It finally reached a point where the "collection" became an unmanageable mess, so I decided to take some time to sand each fragment down into powder, and now I have a 12 oz cup of the powder. The problem is, now I have the cup of powder just sitting there, and I can't help but wonder if something can be done with it. I thought it would be worth trying to blend portions of the powder with some fresh putty (hoping to increase the mass of the putty), but this was hardly worthwhile as it made the putty become less tacky. SO, now I've come here in the hopes of finding some use for this powder. Does anyone have any ideas?

A common trick in model building is to use powder mixed with super glue as a filler for gaps

Mix it in paint and use it for textured surfaces in your display dioramas ( like streets or concrete walls )
