    Just run a knife-edge along the side of the cut, which will cut/snap off hanging shards of kerf.

    Replace plastic lost to kerf with. 040" (or thereabouts) strips of styrene.

    Now that the Diamond Wheel worked flawlessly, I will link them. Remember to not push the wheel too far in, keep an eye on that, the center of the wheel is thicker then the cutting wheel which is only .60 MM thick.

    I want to remind everyone following this as David said; DO NOT MOVE THE CUTTING WHEEL AGAINST ITS ROTATION!!!!!!!!!

    Insert three plastic shims of kerf thickness, tack glue in place, and proceed with cutting the other side.



    Idiot!
