End grain with sacrificial wings run through a planer for science!

The shallowest, slowest passes possible: zero problems.

Good idea / bad idea? End walnut grain glue up with pine snipe / tear out sacrificial add ons. To be flattend with the dewalt 735.

Am I about to destroy this work?

We shall see…

Edit:

Hell yes!

Any reason this glue up would be expected to fail or give me problems?

So I know you’re not supposed to miter wrap cutting boards. But as I was speculating in this previous post,

I couldn’t help but try. Basically this is an experiment and if it fails, lesson learned. Basically this whole board is built out of scrap, I had just barely enough cherry to make what you see here. My hope that with the walnut end-grain filling the miter position it might give it just enough play to stay stable. Has anyone seen a corner detail like this, it is the hive mind prediction for failure as I suspect?
