The issue I have is, that grain doesn't show on all four sides of a piece of wood. I looked all over the internet for a veneer to apply to the edges that I wanted that look on. 4 foot by 8 foot sheets, 1 inch by 500 foot rolls of material, none of which was what I wanted, and at stupid big prices. I ended up cutting thin slices on my table saw, which, if I can sand the blade and burn marks off of, should be OK to use.
Good luck! I generally cut my edge banding on the band saw. It takes a bit longer, but I don't get burning and the saw marks are a lot easier to sand away.
