You'll be using a power tool in your shop, right?

How about a drill? McMaster-Carr, for instance, has many long-length,
small diameter drills. Their # 2986A51 is a 1/8" by 12" drill...you
would need to draw it out and clear it every inch or so, But I would
think that you could carefully drill a hole (or row of holes) right
next to the end of the slot and then somehow clear the remaining
material with a sharp object - maybe even the knife that will fit the
hole?
