Am snapping fret saw blades left right and centre and it's getting expensive!

get a tile cutter blade for a coping saw, cut to length and fit to the clamps on your fret saw, works a treat.
i use fret saw set up like this, i also use diamond disks on a dremel, and also have a small cnc cutter which will handle parts up to 220mm in length and 180mm wide which gets used for repeat parts, expensive to keep in mill bits tho. have also used a tile diamond disk in an angle grinder for long cuts to get them accurate. best tool to have for tidying edges and minor trimmings though is 80 grit aluminium oxide paper
