I want to cut some grooves in concrete to help drain some areas where the
concrete man had low spots. These grooves would be about 1/4" deep and
wide. I was thinking of using a diamond blade on a SkilSaw, and turning it
45, and running it along a 2x4 fence with bricks to hold the end down. Is
there an easier better way?

Recently watch some guys making relief cuts in driveways. They used a
long steel straight edge, diamond blade and the cric saw had a rolling
mount attached.
