I pulled up the maple hardwood flooring in my house. It was in decent shape but needed to go. Any idea what to do with this stuff? Same stuff that is used on basketball courts made by Mercer. I pulled it up gently as I could. Hate to throw it away as I'm sure it could be used for some other project

One thing to note is court reclaim just like bowling alley reclaim is BRUTAL on milling tooling on the finished side. A lot of woodworkers avoid it for that reason. It isn't so bad if you only will have one side ever showing and can just plane the back side to thickness it and avoid milling the front side all together. One project I remember seeing from years ago was a cool conference table:
