Found it on the curb, and I liked the design. Looks like solid wood, but the joints are all coming apart and look tricky to reinforce. Would you bother?

I just made a table saw box joint jig, I like the idea of using that to redo the joints on this.

And thanks for the word of caution about chipping on very hard wood, maybe I can test on a small area.

If so else fails, some nice scrap wood for making splines.
