You might try the search function, or simply scroll back a few pages. I know this question has been asked at least once in the last couple of months...

Not sure if they ship to the UK but they shipped to me in Canada ok.
Not free shipping for ppl outside the US though.

Apart from using a router, how else can I cut the grooves for t-molding? I can't find the correct bit locally and I'm not waiting 2-3 weeks again for something from another country.

Using a router is the most practical approach. If you can't find a slot cutter, you might look for a 1/16" straight bit and try to build some sort of jig that will allow you to use it to cut the necessary slot. If you've got concave curves to deal with, you're in trouble...

i'm not actually serious, although if you a complete madman it could be done

The point is that most circular saw blades cut a kerf that is 1/8" wide. Which isn't terribly useful if you're trying to create a 1/16" slot...

I guess you have got one sorted but I thought I would add where I got mine for future reference.
I got a 1.5mm (about 0.004" smaller) slot cutter from tooled-up.com in the UK
