Default Would You Make The Slots First Or Cut The Triangles First?

Slow day...

I stumbled across this tip and it got me wondering. This isn't about the
bench pads themselves, it's more about the instructions and the order
of the steps.

If you were to make a set of these bench pads, would you follow the
instructions and make the slots in the individual triangles after
they were already cut or would you make the slots in the board and
then cut the triangles?

Seems to me that working with the long board would be easier than
working with the triangles.

Looks like an excellent excuse to but a Domino. :-). It would probably be
easier to cut slots first.
