Dana, personally I would not worry about cutting up those blocks. Although I will say that I have not sliced up any blocks that have been stabilized before, but have done a bunch before from just plain old wood. If you have a table saw you can do it with that. They have some really great carbide blades that are real thin to keep the waste down. I have seen a couple before that are almost as thin as a band saw blade. If you have a band saw it is pretty easy to make an adjustable fence and cut them up on it where the 3/16th piece is on the outside of the blade.
I have bought a couple of pieces from Bobs Exotics before and they looked pretty good and the price was resonable. I have not had a chance to use the scales yet, but they did seem to be ok. Hope that helps some.
