I'm building my own version of this lamp and have a question on how to cut one of the uprights lengthwise (corner to corner). The purpose of the cut is so I can rout a groove down the middle and glue the two halves back together. The lamp is 4' tall (hence a 4' long cut which must be perfectly straight) and I'm using 1x1 walnut stock (which is actually 0.75"x0.75"). The two options I see are using a table saw (and waste a bunch of material) or use a bandsaw. I'd rather not waste the wood using a table saw, but I've not really used a bandsaw before (convinced my wife to let me buy a Delta 10" specifically for this project ). Any suggestions would be helpful and appreciated.
