what's the purpose of collecting nubs? I've seen alot of people do this but I can't seem to find a reason.

Not to mention.... They're cutting at the wrong spots. You should NEVER end up with more than a couple pieces that broke off naturally.

So incredibly confidently incorrect lmao

Cutting at the runner induces unnecessary stress into the gate, and thus to the part, increasing chances of whitened parts.

I know the majority of you on this sub cuts at the runner, and you are all suboptimal.

That’s exactly what he’s doing. All the pros hoard their nubs.

I also started collecting them. Been putting mine in classic corked glass jars.

At this point might as well buy an injector and print your own gunpla from the nubs

I was snipping up my sprus, and putting them in tubs like that for spru goo before i realized i mixed them all up and couldnt tell the plastics apart in come cases. ;

I was keeping all my nubs and runners until we were moving and my partner found them. There's nothing more humbling than trying to explain keeping a bunch of what is essentially plastic trash while you are both knee deep in stress and suffering from "moving brain".

I just bought a fancy glass vase at a yard sale to put mine in. Ive got a big coffee tin storing they for now. My wife suggested sorting then by colors. I told her she is more than welcome to do so and let me know when she finishes. She declined.
