Salut Caribou ;)
Not on Le bon coin, it was found by someone for me.
We used a table saw, because the wood is so hard the bandsaw couldn't make it.
Maybe I will try to find a workshop capable of making another resawing with a bandsaw on the thickest pieces of this board.
This would double the amount of sides available, for sure.

Looks like a board I scored many years ago. Cracks and everything! Congrats!!

Should I flood the black cracks with epoxy?
Which glue should I use for regluing some pieces that fell off naturally after all these years of drying? Is Titebond the right choice or should I epoxy?


For the cracks I'd use CA because it is thinner than epoxy & will penetrate deeper but epoxy has much better gap filling properties.

If you want to use epoxy you can heat it which will make it thinner but it will also accelerate the cure time.

Very nice, congratulations!

I think some folks stabilize BRW with CA glue.......but don't take my word on it.
