Bat bleachers; kinda cute notion.
Removing wood is wasteful of both wood and energy; why not
rip strips from a board, and glue or staple them as appropriate
to the substrate? Instead of a half-inch kerf, you'd be using
a .030" bandsaw's kerf when you ripped a strip from the board,
and maybe another .030" when you made the wide strip into
a narrower one. I've been known to apply glue with a paint roller,
it's REALLY quick to apply to a single strip.
