Alternate Uses For a Tortilla Press

A tortilla press is a very handy tool to have on hand if you happen to be someone who needs to (or wants to) make a lot of things from scratch, don't have a noodle press, and are not a big fan of rolling things out. Maybe not the prettiest or most elegant turn out, but definitely gets the job done. So far I have come up with two alternative uses.

Along with making flour or corn tortillas, it can be used for making--

gyoza or won-ton wrappers:

or noodles, such as noodles made form oat flour or buckwheat flour:

If you don't want to repeat anytime soon, make a larger batch of any of the above and freeze the leftovers for later use.  Just make sure to really flour the gyoza wrappers or to put wax paper between the units of tortillas you think you will use at a go, or you will have to thaw the whole batch to get them apart.
