This video shows a slitting saw mounted in a
boring head. Is there a special reason for doing
this? The cutting is simular to that of a shaper rather
than that of a saw cutting continously.

Bad idea. And the saw slips for lack of a antirotation key. Probably cobbled
together.

And the saw blade is badly fouled with adhering chips - looks like aluminum,
even though the billet is dark colored. Slitting needs to be done wet.
