I recently was given about 300 bf of walnut from a friend of mine. About 100 bord feet was sap wood. I would like to use the sap wood to make a top for my work bench but after cleaning the lumber up I am left with a lot of short pieces. What would be the best way to glue up short boards to make up a 6' bench top. I have never glued up boards end to end before.
I was thinking about a brick pattern or like hardwood floors look.
Please help
Thanks
