What I do , as it's sometimes hard to get the start of the cut with a saw, cut a tiny bit with a dremel and a disc, and then gently go through the rest with the atlas razor saw, a straight neat cut is the result.

Hi again Koos.

Love the blog/website. Only a brief visit last night to familiarise myself with the layout; most impressed. Will pop back over the next couple of days or so. In the meantime, determined to make some headway with tracklaying, so I appreciate your post about the razor saw - which is what I've got (couldn't remember its name Icon_lol ). Sounds as though it's the Atlas blade I need, although I shall heed your advice about starting off the cut with the Dremel.

Regards for now and thanks for your support.
