                    Eeeeeuuuup.

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

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

                                        Next I will clean up the cut lines. David, any advice on cleaning up the Kerf would be appreciated!

                                            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.

                                                    Of the approximately 40,000 men who served on U-boats in WWII, it is estimated that around 28,000 to 30,000 lost their lives.
