You ever think about how a controlled blast could turn a perfect board into a masterpiece?

A blast can be good if it’s measured, but you don’t want splinters to ruin the grain. I’d lay it out, mark the spot, test the pressure, and then see if that crack gives the board a character that feels honest. If the edge stays straight, you’ve turned a perfect board into a story. If it’s a mess, you’re back to the bench, fixing it. It's all about precision and letting the wood speak, not screaming.
Sounds solid, but remember: a little overkill can turn that story into a horror movie. Keep the test rounds tight, then let the wood do the talking—no room for second‑guessing.
Sounds good, but keep the pressure on a tight curve. Test a few small blasts first, measure the deflection, and only then let the wood react. No room for regrets.
Nice plan. Just make sure you don’t get carried away—one big blast and you’ve got a splinter storm. Keep it tight and trust the wood, but stay ready to swing back to the bench if it goes sideways.
