Any input as to a Rule of Thumb for the depth (thickness) for dutchmen? I am currently working with highly figured maple that I have milled to approx. 2 3/8" thick and has a fair number of checks/cracks. I am thinking that 50 - 60% is reasonable (that equates to about 1 1/4" thick) but am soliciting input. The cracks are epoxy filled.
Thanks for any ideas.
