A new thing seems to be " picture framed " boards . Double stacked face grain center sections with an edge grain frame around the outside to hide the seam and highlight the center .

Do the same with end grain center , and edge grain frame .

I'm not seeing what your calling out on the joints , but I'm gonna send you a setup I do for all my glue ups on a table saw . Works great , especially on shorter lengths .

Ok, thanks! The fence on the jointer was slightly out of 90 degrees. Which caused a slight cup on my glue ups. Corrected most of it while planing. There is still a very slight cup. If you didn't have a straight edge on it. I doubt you'd notice it.

That sounds interesting. Might give that a go as well.
 
chopsaw chopsaw What do you use to apply glue? A month or two ago. I ordered a paint brush on Amazon for 5.00. And got a dozen of these instead by mistake. Told them. They didn't want them back. 12.00 a piece. Ok. Thanks!

Silicone pastry brush. These work great. And the dried glue pulls right off.
 
Edge glue ups , I squeeze the glue on from the bottle , then mate the 2 boards together and move them back and forth .
I used that roller top for years . It came with it's own bottle , that I let the glue dry up in . I need to find one that works , or see if they sell a replacement . Be nice if it went right on a normal glue bottle .
For wide surfaces I use that small roller with a foam head . I just let the glue dry on it . Still works .

Those silicone brushes are nice . I have a few that I use at the grill . I like the angle on those .
