If you find a way to get clean lines without it eating way what you dont want please post back with your findings. I tried to do this once and got fed up with the results.

do not try to finish the pick with this process, use it just for cutting to near the line you want then finish with a file.
Wake up and smell the Kafka!!!

Yes, i am eventually going to try this set up for making "blanks" from hacksaw blades. as before i need to cut them down via my dremel. And well, that is a slow process, specially now because i need to replace my cutting wheel :(
