For a normal sized leg it should be fine if both woods are properly dried.

Mahogany is 2” x 2 3/4” each and Maple will be 4” x 1 1/4” to make each leg roughly 4” x 4”.

I doubt they’ll come apart but I suspect the glue line will show as the mahogany moves slightly more than the maple over time.

Onward!

Cut a rebate at the Mahogany/Maple glue line, so if the wood moves, it won’t show.
