I use my table saw and chop saw to cut fiberglass PC board all the time.  They 
cut great, true, accurate and very easily.  It's a piece of cake.

  Fellow Drake Enthusiasts, 


  Yes, the subject line is strange but trust me, it does relate to Drake.  I'm 
in the process of finalizing a project and will be describing it in some open 
source publication or website.  It relates to the power supplies used with the 
Drake L4, L4B, and L7 linear amplifiers.


  As part of this project, I need to saw the phenolic boards used in the 
supplies as well as sawing fiberglass-epoxy board, 1/8 inch thick, that is 
similar to high quality printed circuit boards, only without any foil on either 
side.  My question is, can I use my table saw typically used to cut wood, to 
cut the phenolic and the fiberglass-epoxy board?  I'm not sure if the material 
is so hard that it would cause heating and binding, or whether it would rapidly 
dull the blade.  Your expert advice would be greatly appreciated.


  Enjoy those Drakes.


  73,


  Evan
