Cutting Lignum Vitae
 

I have a block of Lignum Vitae 10"Wide by 6" Deep and need to cut off
a piece to turn.
It is too thick for the table saw , I'm not trying a hand saw!
Do I cut it with a chain saw?

How about, make a cut on your table saw, turn it over and cut the same
track from the opposite side, then use your handsaw to saw down the
kerf and finish it?

Got a friend with a bandsaw? No? Might be a good time to make a new
friend. Or visit a local high school woodshop (if there are any left)!
