I'm waiting for photos before commenting. Putting waves on a flat surface was never in the plan so this could be a very interesting thread.
The first thing that comes to mind is the depth of the cut would be deeper at each peak of the waves. The center of the wave is of course the original depth set. This is because of the arc of the cut. Does this make sense?
