Nancy I have a machine called Gryphette that I got from Johnsgems. They make a groove cutting bit for the machine. I've talked to people who do it freehand with a dremel and a diamond cutoff wheel but I can't imagine getting a good groove with that. If you want to risk it it send me some cabs and I will groove them for you.

Brain finally kicked in a bit and I realized that with the Graves machine I could do more if I ground down several at a time then proceed with the next steps through each one. Then I won't have to change stuff so often. So I will send you a couple next week. Send me your address please. Appreciate it
