: The drawback is that I have to be very careful when beveling the edges.
: Always have to do the cutting on the one side of the strip. Never on the
: white edged side. I am thinking that may give me some problems.

When I beveled my strips, I always beveled only one side. I would bevel the strip about to be installed such that it mated to the previous strip. Having only one edge to bevel would require the strips go down in a certain order.
