I have never tried to score it. I doubt it would work but it's worth at least trying. Komodo Dragons have a hard time scratching the stuff, hence my skepticism.

I have heard that heavy-duty "snips" work well but I've never tried those either. Electric powered snips for sheet metal would probably be ideal.

Of your choices I found a circular saw to be the most accurate, and the jig saw to produce the least dust.

I have a rotary saw but have not tried it on FRP.

Thanks for the input i will probably try out the jigsaw with a fine metal blade and see how that works. thanks again
