It sounds like you need a gang saw. *This is not the best picture, but

Mostly used in industry, but I suppose that you could make one.


We have a home made two blade at my work to cut plastic cases. Done with 5/8-18
threaded rod since the spacing needs to be adjustable. The general 'rickyness'
is why I am leaning towards a modified jointer at the moment. A real gang saw
might be in my future plans.

I have parts for a Fellowes paper shredder that self-destructed. The
blades on the grinder shaft are about 1.7" OD, 0.76" ID and 0.15"
thk. They were press fit on the shaft and the tips would also need to
be re-ground to cut wood. With a 3/4" arbor and some spacers, maybe
it would work for what you describe. You might look for a broken one
to use as a source of small blades.
