I really like the cove cut in the border; a very nice touch. I don’t think I could bring my self to cut on it either!

Yep, gonna be hard to make that first cut but if you do it gives good reason to make another one! :) Great job!

Thank you all for all those good comments. I am thinking of making a chessboard table later on. Maybe it will be soonner than I was thinking.

WOW ! I never would have guessed that it was a cutting board from the pictures….much too fancy indeed ! What type of router bit did you machine the Santos with ?

I did not use a router to machine the santos. I did that cutting board outta scrap pieces at work. That piece was one side of a laminated handrail . We machine that pattern on a shaper. But still the bit is available for the router : Molding#2 16J54.02 at Lee Valley.
