Grooves on a Bread Board?
I would appreciate some advice on whether to get a bread board with grooves or not from those who have tried one.
At the moment I am using a regular flat board with no groove and crumbs from crusty loves kind of shrapnel everywhere when making the cuts on the first day. By the second day the loaf has softened enough to not fire crumbs everywhere so it is not so much of an issue.
I understand I could choose one which is flat, side to side slatted or has a perimeter groove. The board will be custom made so I have complete choice in what is done to it.
Pros and cons please?

, grooves on a bread board are over-thinking or over-engineering. I'd go with a non-grooved board.
... that I certainly wouldn't refuse a good board that already had grooves. Just wouldn't ask someone to go to the trouble, for what I consider very limited benefit.
cut-side-down on the board, that would already reduce your options ☺. The perimeter groove is handy to gather crumbs.
Enjoy, must be nice to have one made to measure.
