or
2. Do you want to cut a slot (more like a pocket in this case) 30 mm wide and 5 mm deep in the 100 mm long bar, leaving 5 mm on each side. If so, how long would the slot need to be?
or
3. Do you need a 5 mm wide through slot 30 mm long in the middle of the bar, leaving 35 mm from each end of the slot to the end of the bar?
How accurate do the slot dimensions need to be? If very tight dimensions are not required any of the three alternatives would be a quick and easy job. I'm a bit far away for you to drop it around though!
