Juice grooves are router indentations inlaid 1 2 or 5 8 that follow the outer edge of a cutting board. The juice groove serves as a place for any juices oils other liquids or loose pieces of food being cut to sit and pool so they don t interfere with the food. My cutting board is 18 x 12 x 1 5. These guide rails were made from more scrap pieces of plywood cut into inch wide strips.
I have new white corian counter tops so having a white cutting board that blends in is a real plus.

From that point i measured the distance from the center of the router bit to the outer edge of the router base.
