A few months ago I made a pair of matching credence tables for a church in Maryland. The tables are identical, and have carved aprons on all four sides.
The tables were made from quartersawn white oak
The curved molding was modeled in Aspire and machined with 3D offset tool paths. The remaining relief was machined as a pocket, and the cross was cut using a prisim/vcarve tool path, due to the time constraints from machining 8 aprons. The crosses were further refined with sanding, and a little hand carving.
I also used the bot to cut the mortises in the legs, and breadboard ends.
