cutting up dbl sided bds is not trivial, cutting up multi's is even less
trivial
i know, i've done it for years
be careful with the set backs on the boundaries of your multi's and your
means of cutting and your fingers and the dust if using a saw (i hope
not)
there are really a lot of potential issues and considerations, sometimes
it works out great and other times it is a disaster
