   Hi Philip,

   Use an old saw blade  - cut and filed to size.

   Cheers,

   eddie

   Thanks Eddie,
   Ihave just the right thing waiting to be used. Should be very easy , what with those thin cutting disks for angle grinders- a new thing to me ,of great potential.
   A friend here has introduced me to Australian Wood Review magazine-had only seen some others which were not great. I think the A.W.R is a really good one-makes me want to nip across ....

   If you want a bit more rigidity, try an old table saw blade.

   The new flexible cutting discs for you angle grinder work well and seem to generate a lot less heat (and waste) than the alternative ridgid cutoff wheels. I have used these very successfully on 2mm+ hacksaw blade.

   I ended up using a z knife from an old Wadkin trenching tool-aprox.1/8 inch.
   Cutting disc=Norton -tremendous item- ate it up like corn off the cob-and no heat to speak of.
   It works less aggressively than #80 because you can't flex the blade, but still takes wispy shavings wiht a clean cut.
