What are your favorite prints when you have too little filament left on a spool for anything interesting and you just need to finish it off?

I simply attach it to other filament leftovers and print stuff with it where color does not matter.

Im using a filament fuser 3d printed. Try looking for filament fuser/welder/connector on thingi or any other page. There are also professional solutions on the market but diy cheap printed thing works flawlessly for me.

I save all of my end of life spools for prints that I'm going to be on hand to supervise, then just spend the day hopping up to swap filaments every half hour or so as each one runs out.
