I would certainly laminate some of the discs and make a bowl. A few members have made pens out of plywood blanks and they looked very good. :thumbs:

Plywood depends on quality it can pick, flick disintegrate, delaminate or stay sound. Wish you well but there a thousand uses for this product, nice gift IMHO.

Plywood off cuts never goes astray.
If it is low grade be careful if you turn bowls out of it, you can find sections that haven't been glued properly.

Not sure it was very expensive (well is cost a lot ) they are off cuts from large speakers and they are just sanded and stained so I think its good quality.:praying:
