Does anyone have any pics of a dremel tool set up to cut abalone purfling? I know I've seen one that someone posted on the forum, but an archive search came up empty. TIA.

do you want to cut the abalone into strips? a wet tile saw with a diamond blade is usually used.

if wanting to size abalone strips to length they are ususally broken off and filed square if necessary.
