With the "rolling shear" of the microbootlegger I am expecting more pronounced "faceting" than in a design with sharp chines. But you're right- I'm probably fretting more than is warranted! I milled the lumber myself, so these strips are a bit wider than typical 1X material- nearly 7/8"- so I'm sure that will affect things, too.
I will say that after fairing/sanding, the faceting was far more pronounced in the (concave) interiors of the hardwood strippers I built my kids. I suppose I should take that as reassurance this "faceting" is not too difficult to overcome with the more visible convex exterior.
Regardless, I'm feeling better about things. Back to ripping strips so I can get this show on the road.
Thanks,
Patrick
