Hi All,
It has been a long time since I have posted.
I am building a hand tool station and just as I was ready to glue the cherry dividers into their dados. It suddenly hit me that I have a major cross grain situation. What would you do here? Can I get away with using fasteners. Is the 18 inches of cross grain to much.Should I go ahead and glue them in anyway? I suppose if I cut some of the cross grain cherry dividers a bit shorter to leave a gap at the ends it may help. What about gluing just the center few inches and some brads at the ends? Please share your thoughts.
James
