So the pattern you where going for was like this?  Did you have a place for the 
router bit to run out or where you trying to keep inside the border? That would 
be really tough to do I would think. 

I'm trying to follow your description for the follower.   Was the router moving 
diagonally across the work ( both x and y axis in motion during the cut)?  
That's something I've wanted to try for a while for another style of cut.

hey tim when i made my stair tread last spring i tried making a
diamond pattern in the middle of the tread about 11/2" in from all
four edges with a groove around the whole outside of it sounded easy
in the beginning cut a 45 in a piece of mdf 1/8 wide for the follower
flip it to go in both directions move it in x and keep on going i made
three of them and each time i would be almost done with it and
something would happen to put a wiggle in it although i did not call
it a wiggle at the time and finally gave up and focused on making
nicer balusters i don't know what went wrong i decided that it just
wasn't the legacy's strongest point
