Then re-sawed a few other pieces and ran a square blade through some for the coasters and there it is. Nothing wasted.

Butcher Block
Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)
 im an admitted amateur. i built a butcher block, not edge grain as i dont have a table saw. in fact, i escaped the city during the pandemic and was holed up at my inlaws- so i built this with a sawzall and a drill sander. it took forever. i had very few tools and wood selections.here's some pre-jointed pine (green and blonde) that had 90' sharp edges. i only had one clamp. so one clamp it is! i spent some time lining up the grains. then, lots and lots of sanding. hours. and softening the edges. you can see i dont have a planer as it's far from straight. i'm no good with a handheld router, so there are some burns and messy handles. then some mineral oil and a waxing. this has been one of my best projects, it came out so much better than i thought. and i shouldnt have used soft pine, but it's held up, and again, it's all i had!
