here my experience..
I have used a plummer sisor or whatever it is called in english :)
the problem is that it bend the edge and if it is with photoresist , the resist is unusable 5 mm from the edge. the same had been the result when using a guilotine.. but after, it is very nice.
I have ended with a proxxon table saw ,its very nice and small, and with the vacum cleaner connected to the saw, I can cut in my kitchen too
I cant see any fibres in the air , when I use a spotlight to make it visbile..
the proxxon is rather cheap at Reichelt in germany.. around 100euro ,the hardmetal blade is rather costly affair, but after a year
I'm very satisfied with it..after ,say ,5 meter cutting.
