Sinker Cypress - edge grain

 From a piece of 5/16" sinker cypress that had its best grain on the edge, I made 42 crosses, most 2 13/16" high, a few 4 3/4" high.  The face grain wasn't what I wanted so I used the Thin Rip Guide to cut strips.  Turned them on their sides and laid out where to make dado cuts using the MatchFit Dado Stop.  See process notes from my journal, page 98.
