Which gives rise to the question why you never see boards made from
two suck wedge-shaped ones glues together to form a rectangular slab?
That is a _very_ good idea....
why?
More QS wood from the same tree (less waste), wider QS planks from the
same tree. The only disadvantage I can think of now is that the edges
of the plank would have a glue line.
Are we missing something? Why hasn't it been done? Is it a question of
cost, i.e the effort is not worth the additional wood? Or did Juergen
have a true inspirational moment?
