I believe "Corian" with a C is what I used for the wedges I made for my QCTP toolholder holders. I found it to be brittle, there are chips and broken corners on the wedges I made. The countertops in our kitchen haven't exhibited any brittlenes or fragility as yet but I think my wife is trying to "test" them in the hopes that a failure will accelerate the kitchen remodel.
when machining in a mill or with a saw, chipping will occur with rough cuts. Finishing with a shallow cut be it with a router or whatever will produce a beautiful sharp unchipped edge.
