What do you do with your engine cores?

My fellow grease monkeys, what do you do with your left over engine cores? Scrap them ? Sell them? I've amassed quite a collection over the past decade not sure what to do with them. Some people say to sell it to scrap, any ideas of what an engine is worth?

Seriously though, scrap metal. If you've had a bunch of engine blocks from the last decade accumulated, I can't imagine what other crap you've hoarded.

The plan was to rebuild each one. Then came along a wife and kids and my free time disappeared.

I'd make a table out of it if it was worth the time. There is a lot of work involved in transforming an engine into a table. There was this great article on R&T? I think about a person that did one. I think the pic above was a part of the gallery of others that did the same.
