              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.

                            Bob has brass props.
                            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.
