I'm looking for a local source or an online source to get a jewellers saw. If anyone has an idea or a substitute that would be great.

Thanks, Kurtis.

I would walk up to KMS after work and try there.

So I found a good source for these saws for future reference, Lacy West. The nice thing is that they are in Vancouver.

Also, if you're curious, I am buying these saws to put the slits in my MK6 stainless steel tube. I found a fellow online that had the same problem and he was saying that a jewellers saw is your best bet, just so the PTFE doesn't bulge out too much if at all.

Be sure to buy yourself some extra blades. Stainless is hard on cutting tools. You may want to see how thin of cutting disk you can get for a dremel.

Yea, the blades don't cost much at all so I ordered a few dozen. I will still be on the lookout for a suitable dremel cutoff wheel that is thin enough.
