Message: <blockquote data-quote="guywhofishes" data-source="post: 63809" data-attributes="member: 337">great idea with the router - wish I had bought a thick cutting board and just done that ;:;bangheadBTW - no metal is exposed to the knife. The bolt heads are underneath and I tapped the license plate holder with 5/16 coarse threading. The bolts were cut just long enough so that the bolt ends sit well below the riding surface of the knife but grabs all the threads. The license plate holder has recessed screw holes on the front so that worked great for hiding metal from blade.The back side of the license plate holder is flat/solid/continuous unlike most pressed/formed plate holders, so there's just the seam where it fits flush with the cutting board. A guy can lever up a little bit on the non-bolted side of plate holder to wash out under it but I experienced no solid bits getting underneath it - just blood. I bet some Goop would make it seamless but I probably won't hassle with it.[ATTACH]3081[/ATTACH]back side view - bolts sit lower than cushions so they don't scratch counterI tightened the bolts gingerly with a pliers so as not to strip out the license plate holder holes that I had tapped an alternative to elevator bolts would have been tapered head machine screws but I don't have a taper bit at home to make them sit flush underneath - so bought the goofy elevator bolts with the wide (but low profile) headsagain - a router would have made quick work of this chore - dangit</blockquote>
