The simplicity and efficiency of the guiding and alignment method is
impressively ingenious. Nice thing to share! And all the other good
words applied to every your sharings.

Don't hurt yourself. My fingers hurt just from seen your video (i have
cut myself in power tools before).

My own opinion, is that if spending more money than in a carbide scriber
or steel scissor to cut pcb's is better to spent it on a cnc router.
Your way all board is nicely cut, in a cnc a vacuum table is necessary,
or one as to leave 4 or 2 uncut connections. Since no handle needed
during the process, an cnc router is at least safer.
