I have no idea what the item that I am seeing is called.
How would I cut a slot into a very small piece of brass rod- I have tried a hacksaw, but getting it central and straight is proving impossible?
The rod is 5 or 6mm in diameter. I want to cut a deep slot into it, like a flat headed screw, but it will be about 12mm deep. it will then be cut into 25mm lengths, so half is slotted, half is solid.
Any thoughts- I need a few of them, so a production line of sorts rather than a one off.
