Smallest teeth/highest number of of teeth on the blade you can get (look for TPI numbers on the packet, bigger is better)
Use a couple of headset spacers and some duct-tape as a guide.

A reckon a lightsabre will lead to delamination later on. Probably best to avoid IMO...

I'm hoping that my fartgas from tonights curry and beer will be good enough to cut and fuse it in the morning.

Though it may be best if i do it outside as i fear for my lungs...
