Chris,

Curious about your experience: How wide is the material that you would (comfortably) resaw?

This is great. Thanks for sharing. Your build threads are some of my favorites here. Please continue to share your new projects.

And from someone who's never tried it, the marquetry is mighty...

Really great video and pretty humbling. Thanks for sharing.
