It really wasn't that bad, just set up the table saw gate at two inches and ripped through all the scrap and cut to length on a chop saw. What took the longest was gluing and screwing of all the pieces to make the top. Sanding also took awhile.
If I did another top like this i would run the pieces in the long way on the top, basically make two big slabs and bring them to a place with a planer and run them through to get them dead flat, would save alot of time on sanding...
I had the idea in my head for awhile, glad i took the time and used the material instead of sending it to the landfill.
