Fill these, too?
I'd fill the cracks, even if you leave "rustic" edges. Otherwise, the cracks will be a housekeeping problem, collecting dust, dead insects, etc.
Depends on what other hobbies you may have.

"I find them a handy place to prop up targets."
That is especially true if the crack is in a shooting board. ;-)
