Cutting Circuit Boards?

[Mike]

Anyone know of a tool that works well for cutting circuit boards? I need something that will allow me to cut it in funky shapes so tin snips won't work. Thanks for any help.

A razor saw would probably work fine. I use mine for plastic and wood, it'll go through circuit boards just fine.

Plastic modelers use them, you'll find them in any well stocked hobby store.

You might want to use something like a coping saw instead.

I'd bet a dremel with the appropriate bit would work as well...

A scroll works also.

Just remember, that fiberglass dust (from FR-4) type boards is extremely hazardous.

You'll need to wear some sort of dust mask when cutting it this way since the dust will be everywhere.

I think I'm gonna try a coping saw. The razors don't work fast enough. I've been going at it a while with several different exacto blades and a utility knife and I'm getting no where fast. Thanks of the suggestions. I didn't know if there was some tool that is designed to do it.
