I’ve got ~10 full sheets of .5" construction grade plywood taking up space in my garage. I’ve already built a climbing wall for the kids and a new scrap bin.
How else could I put it to use?
Jigs and more jigs. Replace any older/worn out ply in other projects (bench tops, shelving, …jigs)?
Shelves and bins for those shelves.
I just built a small shed using 7/16" OSB for all the wall and roof sheathing so 1/2" ply could work well for that too.
Some other things I can think of are a shop cart and assembly table, both would be nice to have. Been meaning to make a cart to wheel around my dust extractor + dust deputy cyclone.
Jigs are always handy, but you may prefer to build those out of 3/4 Baltic birch. The ones I reach for often are the crosscut sled, shooting board, bench hook, tenoning jig. Sacrificial fence and L-fence are also great additions. Also, a mortising jig for plunge router if you do a lot of mortise & tenon.
Other miscellaneous storage like cordless drill holders, charging stations, chest of drawers for hardware are also worth making to help give things that tend to wander a home.
That is a lot of plywood! I’d consider selling most of it just to get the space back.
Shed. Then a second Shed.
Look at Arthur ‘Two Sheds’ Jackson over here.
To be fair, 10 sheets of ply is going to make two very small sheds.

I’ll go a different direction than some of these other comments because it’s a project I’m planning on building soon. If you have cats build some homemade cat towers. You can cover with carpet/fabric to make them easier for cats to climb and hide the imperfections.
I don’t have cats but that would be a great use for it.
I used mine to build attic space in my roof.
Ah good reminder. I have a good bit of attic space that this just insulation. With some supports I could lay this down and gain a lot of storage space.
