I'm thinking about getting that and cutting it in half. Its pretty big too , at approx. 6" by 4"

Would it shatter or somehow get screwed up if I cut it?

that could be pretty easy to snap,but if ii snaps  kinda where u want it you could then file it down tough work i know,but its worth a try

[ed1380]

if you cut it with a fine blade it'll be ok. like a hacksaw or a steaknife

They should have some cheaper stuff than that.  Last time i went to their store (in person) I found some perfboard that size for about $1.30

could use a band saw if you had acces to 1

I use a bandsaw to cut boards like that all the time.

You could also use a mill, scroll saw, or a dremel with the right attachment.

Oh, and don't breath in the dust.
