I have a box full of the plastic sleeves that my turning tools came in. Has anyone found of a use for them? If not I will throw them in the recycle bin.

cover for ice-fishing rod
You could blow through them and make obnoxious noises. Good for entertaining the kids...until their mother's patience gives out.
I had to repair an a/c condensate drain pipe that broke at a place hard to replace. The tube i had fit inside perfectly and was a fast and cheap repair.
Could use as cover when traveling with tools.

You could use them as mold for making resin filled turning blanks.
I've been saving mine too in case something comes up to use them for. Lol

Very large spitball shooter?
If they are the rigid ones they are very handy.
I use mine for holding long boring bits, long drill bits etc.
