The panels are made next, after selecting the board with the knots and/or figures that will, when resawed and bookmatched, provide an unusual design. More than one board width will be needed to get enough resawed

slats to panel two average size doors and it's best to get all your slats from a single board so the color and grain will be a good match between the doors.

The board is first crosscut into lengths equal to the panel widths (Fig. 3A). These lengths, depending on their width, are then ripped into slats usually two or three in. in width (Fig. 3B).

Take care to keep the slats in the same order as they were in the original board (mark them on their edges), then resaw the slats in half lengthwise (Fig. 3C). A tablesaw can be used but a bandsaw, because of its narrow kerf, will do a better job.

Stack the resawed slats in the same order as in the original board and open the slats like a book (Fig. 3D). The bookmatched slats are then divided between the two panels so that each panel has a design which is a mirror-image of the other.

Round off the edges of the slats with sandpaper and run each edge over the tablesaw to groove them lengthwise. I use a carbide blade which cuts a groove of Vi in, in width and elevate it for a 3/16 in. deep cut. Keep all face
