Blade emitter question

Question:

This sounds like a good idea, but what do you use to cut the groove? A dremmel wouldn't work for that.

I have cut grooves in PVC with a dremel with no problems. The trick is to use the lower speeds. I have also used the good old hacksaw method for pieces mounted in a vice, works fine everytime.

I wanted VERY straight grooves down a 16" PVC tube on one project that I did and I set a table saw with the blade depth, set her up and got er done. Took about 2 hours to laser mark my groove points and 2 minutes to cut[]

Sounds like a lot of work. I guess I could cut the PVC tube in half cut the grooves on the opposite sides and then glue it back together. That might be a bit faster.
