Bill,
I have recently done something similar and used a
spiral saw with a masonry bit. Mebbe it was me, but I
had a deuce of a time keeping a straight cut. The
result was not neat, but as it was rough work, it was
not an issue.
I am looking at a similar job today, but neatness
counts on this one. I'm looking into a dry diamond
blade and right angle attachment for the rotary saw.
FWIW, if the job is small enough, you can get a
similar set-up for most Dremel tools.
I won't be trying this out until Feb. 7, so I won't be
able to tell you how it works out until then.
However, I've researched the beans out of this problem
and it seems this is a good way to go.
HTH,
Charlie
