Hi all. I had some very small and thin scraps of spalted wood in the shop and decided to play around with them. I resawed them (most were around 5/16 thick or so) and glued them up using a clever jig set up I read about years ago. They came out surprisingly well, So I've decided to make some box lids from them.
My question: If you look closely at the photos you'll see that the lighter areas are actually tightly packed sawdust left by whatever bug or worms bored the holes. I'm wondering if I put some thin CA glue on those (rather large) spots if that would work? Being so thin I'll laminate then to a substrate so I won't have to worry about the plugs punching through at some point. Opinions?
Thanks Rich
