The post below was originally part of Davebozell's "Show us your current project" thread. The moderators have split the many projects in the original thread out into individual threads so the members can more easily ask questions and the builders can more easily answer.

Sawed the blank entirely with a rip saw and a frame saw:

Getting closer:
