I'm such a novice that i hesitate to even ask this.
But the olivewood wasn't cheap and I'd like to avoid a mistake.
What's the advisability of joining olivewood with either walnut or hard maple?
Thinking of a cheese tray. Did a charcuterie tray from maple and walnut and that was okay.
Plan to edge joint, glue up and then use a planer to finish milling them.
Walnut has more contrast so I lean that way. All three types are well dried.
Are there pitfalls I should avoid?
