EXCELLENT CRAFTSMANSHIP what do you do so it doesn't crack. I would think it would want to crack. Again... Fantastic work.
Are you guys talking about where the lace wood and walnut are laminated together ? It's just glued together , just like a butcher block top , for example Once you make a perfectly flat glue joint , clamp it up, let it dry , it will never crack apart , but you must start with kiln dried stock ,acclimated to the environment (the shop). Probably would crack apart if you left it outside in the elements
