I think he/she meant crappy as in 'no use beyond the standard stuff'.

Crafts and furniture. I'm not above making bins and barrels out of platinum and blue stuff. I've taken to requesting rose gold and various gems from traders and turning them into high quality crafts that I turn around and sell for several times the initial investment. You don't need many resources when you know how to trade smart.

Build a modern apartment building. Steel structure, glass windows, metal furniture.

Put in marble tile over the steel floor, though, it's classy.

make traps

You could always use them to build a giant, hollow cat head to keep all of your furry menaces in. You could also keep cats there.

And it's unlikely Toady will ever add electrolysis.

if you have galena, you should really consider building furnitures for they r basically useless, apart from being a good material for bins, for the sake of furture reclamation.

and silver. i use silver for blunt, and many furnitures for high end, non-noble rooms. with the metal resource being stretchy, silver and other less valuable precious metals are good for decoration.

i reserve aluminum for noble rooms and big halls. they suck in any other ways.....and making into crafts and selling them to caravan ends the posibility of recycling once for all.

in .19 ammo is kinda a problem, since i always value shooters over footmendwarves... crappy metals make terrible bolts, good steel are hard to get, even with iron ore and flux...digging down is a bane, getting coal before magma furnace is another...

Metal? I listen to it.

On the other hand, play .19. This will solve you metal excess problem.

Alternatively, you could build a giant iron man who spits magma from his eyes an chest. Or you could do the ultimate trap course.

.19 solves your metal excess problems with metal shortage problems.

Not really. Just embark on a place with metal, as I did.

With two different biomes with tetrahedrite, one biome with hematite, and one with native copper, I'm swimming in metal.

I made two entire towers out of checkered gold and obsidian to house my marksdwarf garrisons once. It was quite nice. 4 levels each, about 20x20 squares per level.

Nothing but the best for my half functional half retarded marksdwarves, after all.
