Need to cut an 1.5" X into 96 tennis balls. (To attach to classroom
chair legs, if you must know ;-)

So far, a box cutter is not getting it done, neither a small "cutting"
wheel from a dremel kit

Best so far is with ball held in a vise, and using a miter box saw to
cut 2 1.5" slits in ball to form X. But this is a bit tedious for 96 x 2
cuts.

Thought of a table saw, but fingers would be too close to blade for my
comfort

Tried looking for a dremel type cutter that would go in a drill motor,
but haven't seen anything I want to pay for if it does not work any
better than miter saw.

Any suggestions ??

I would try a powered reciprocating saw.

Hhmm....... I could try mounting my jigsaw in the vise, if i can
"cushion" it to stay in place.


And yet you will use a half assed makeshift setup rather than a bandsaw.
OMG, look to buy a ready made item rather than risk by misuse of a tool.
I'd make a sharp X knife to fasten to my big tinner's soldering
iron. Just like butta'


Bet it wouldn't smell like butta...
