What do you do with your old ski equipment?

I'm forever turning over ski junk. Can't stop buying new boards,yes I know I have a problem(I'm a new ski addict) and don't have the room to keep them all so I was just wondering what do you do with your old boards and boots; Ski Swap, sell on craigslist or donate to charity. I usually give them to friends and family.

Just for giggles I might give them to the 4 millionth person who asks "What's the best ski for....?" that will probably be sometime tomorrow

Update:

The chair idea sounds cool...something like an Adirondack patio chair?

I reuse my bindings if I don't give them away. boxes of px14's do clutter up the garage abit

    Boots get sold at a tag sale or ski swap.

    Clothing gets donated to charity like Goodwill or the Salvation Army.

    Poles get used until they break or bend, then they become fire pit pokers or tossed.

    Skis I give to a buddy of mine who makes chairs out of them.

    Bindings get tossed.

    I use my poles until they break and I sold my last 2 pairs of skis on craigslist, my bindings went with them.

    Whenever I go to get new boots I return the old ones and get a discount at Surefoot.

    I use gloves until they rip, same with pants. I tend to keep my jackets though although oneday I'll need to find something to do with them.
