Subject: Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] Cutter selection and/or hacks

From: Bob Butcher <bbutcher85@...>

I have used a paper cutter from the office supply store. It doesn't do it a lot of good cutting the abrasive glass fiber board, but the cost is not too bad. I would not recommend using an expensive sheet metal shear since it will dull it quite quickly. I sometimes use a bandsaw, but the dust is very abrasive and not good for the equipment in the shop, or your eyes and lungs for that matter. A metal cutting wheel on an angle grinder works too, but same problems with the dust.
