    Hello there Orchidians... The recent bench discussions lead me to
    wonder what folks find are the pros and cons of the cutout. I've
    never worked on one, and will soon be building a bench and had
    planned on the cutout...simply, I suppose, because I assumed the
    bench had evolved that way for good reason. But as I read these posts
    by those who've used them and prefer a straight edge I realize my
    blind assumption needs a bit of examination. 

    So! Pros/Cons of either, especially from those with bi-bench
    experience, would be greatly appreciated.
