Maple (whatever species) is a pretty stable wood and without a face plate you can make loads of things, candle sticks, crafting tools galore, priests, mallets, dibbers, handles for tools, hair sticks, pins, the list goes on. With a bit of ingenuity you can also make bowls, platters etc. Check out how pole lathe turners do it. Only problem that you might have is that the wood will be green for a good while (dries roughly 1" per year) unless you cut it down in size.
