I would think that a Dremel is going to find PCB material hard work.  
Plus would probably produce very fine dust.

Best thing I've found for DIY cutting of PCBs is a sharp jigsaw blade, 
designed for metal (very fine teeth).  It won't be sharp by the time 
you've finished!  My jigsaw has a plastic plate that clips on the bottom 
to prevent scratching.  Otherwise, best to protect the PCB somehow 
(masking tape?)
