I'll start by cutting some light wood to make sure everything is working properly (I did the "hello world" program with a sharpie marker amd that worked) Then finishing passes on my XOP platform beam to remove the stepped surface from the square endmill. After that I might cut out the riser pieces for my next longbow. I had previously made some in a pay/hour workshop, but wasn't all that pleased with the quality I got the first time using the spindle sander. And I dropped one of the pieces in my garage. It broke, so I need to make a new one anyway. The router should perform the task perfectly.
I think a hollow-cut would look better on the tree, what do you think?
Probably, and it's easier to make. The "SH" logo had some disconnects so I'd need to modify it slightly to keep everything in one piece.
Have you put any thought to making strap on steps for a platform out of 1" starboard material? You can buy it in black and the stuff is very dense. You could probably make something to rival the plastic ameristeps.I made one ornament and now a bunch of people in the family want one. Good thing is it only takes 4 minutes to cut.

I'm not sure what the Ameristeps were made of but aluminum would have similar weight and 10X the yield strength of HDPE, which is what Starboard is comprised of according to Google.
