Bamboo is as hard as maple so have good blades. Pilot hole w/ a 1/2" bit and then a sabre saw. Go slow and it'll be fine. Draw your outline of course.I just re-sawed an opening in a moving shelf/ plinth from a Telefunken console to allow a much better Garrard Lab 80 to fit and it went fine. I've got to make a new plinth for my Dual 622 and may get two of those and sandwich them together to replace the plastic POS Dual included with this pretty nice table.
It is 3/4" thick, is that enough for you or are you putting two together. Two together would look nice w/the two tops glued together with about 10/12 dowels added to add strength.

EDIT: Just looked closer and the 11" depth of the chopping block isn't going to work for the Dual it should be about 13.5 deep min says Dual-and now I just saw that the Butcher block is over 14 D and would work.

I'm thinking of mounting it in one board with brass spikes that will rest on another board. The mechanicals and motor would be exposed. Will need to add a bore in the lower board to clear the motor.
I'll let you know how it turns out.
