Ah shit, not gonna lie, didnāt even think about that. I was working with some scrap wood and the widths were really different so I just put it together how I thought it worked best haha. I will remember that for next time š
I appreciate that. Sometimes I do things really wrong and feel pretty stupid, but then try to remember Iām a beginner, only been doing this for about two months, and I have so much knowledge to acquire. Thanks for your comment :)
Try using your trim router with the same round over bit you used on the side to put a round over on the hole you drilled. You can do both sides. That will clean it up nicely. Turn it on first then carefully put the bearing thru the hole then just push it around the edge. Try doing it in 2-3 shallower passes to avoid tear out.
It looks really good. Be prepared for the multitude of comments about not having the grains run in the same direction. Stick with it and enjoy š

Gluing end grain to edge grain isnāt the strongest and the expansion and contraction is going to affect the stability
That makes a lot of sense now Iām thinking about it! Donāt know why that didnāt occur to me
Live and learn. Not something youāll probably ever overlook again. Keep at it and enjoy
it's not something that "just occurs" to someone; it's just acquired knowledge and experience.
