Mighton will sell you the cutter, pile holder and pile.
I always run a small rare earth magnet over where I want to rout the groove as one small nail and the cutter is knackered.

It's there, it's called a brush seal cutter and costs £35.00. It's like a slot cutter but it cuts a T shaped slot. Just give them a call, they're very friendly especially Sonia.
