A simple way of extending a board
I needed to extend one of my pieces of walnut stock for an upcoming project. Naturally a few dominos or a scarf joint would have worked just fine, but I don’t really like trying to ‘hide’ something, I would rather make the joint very obvious and fun. In the spirit of that Japanese art of fixing broken pottery with gold, I decided to join the two pieces with a floating tenon of Zebrawood. I wasn’t able to get the tenon perfectly aligned top to bottom though, so I ended up covering my mistakes with Wenge inlay, and did the same to cover my sins on the edges of the board.
