Title: Boo backed edge grain
Post by: DC on June 12, 2015, 08:30:17 pm

Is there any reason not to use the wood edge grain if it's going to be backed?

Nope. 

Do it!

It's the best way to do it as long as its clean. Pin knots running all the way across the belly on quarter sawn wood can cause some problems. Otherwise it is awesome!
