I destroyed a good $40 paper cutter after 20 cuts of FR4 board.

I've used a grinding / cutting wheel on a dremel to cut boards, but its
very limited due to wheel / dremel body clearances, creates an enormous
amount of fiberglass dust, and often breaks wheels spectacularly.

I still don't have any sort of good means to cut up PCBs.  Its a
problem.  Hacksaw and nibbler.  Both tedious and make jagged edges.

Anyone?
