Pat, A couple of the group members have websites with details for making a compound miter sled. I haven't gotten around to making any of them yet, but have...
Greg, If you rip boards into strips for inserting between segments, then the strip end grain will show. Many hardwoods have very nice end grain so it doesn't...
Kevin, Is there usually a preferred way to place them? (end grain vs. long grain showing?) Thanks, Greg p.s. I'm having an absolute blast messing with cutting...
... Whether you have the end-grain or the long-grain showing will depend on the effect that you are trying to achieve. The end-grain will appear as a darker...
Greg, Long grain showing is my preferred way, usually. Although with some woods, like osage orange or black palm, I always have some end grain showing on...

You are absolutely right ... we are truly blessed! Do you know anyone with first-hand experience with either of these??? I spoke with Kevin Clay at Oneway and...
