For many years I used a carbide tile cutting scribe to score/snap PCBs.
But with thinner PCBs they bend and distort. So a shear might be better.
But they do NOT work on FR1 boards which are more rigid and more flat.
I recently switched to this 4" desktop saw for more precision and faster
'production' type work as I am starting a kit series.
The diamond blade is awesome and the product captures the dust by using
it in the same box it came in - cut down to access the table.

PCB distortion and dimensional precision is critical when trying to
build cavity filters etc.
