Right saw for wear-resistant plywood?
Hello! The old man is going to cut a body panel, the edges are getting frayed. What saw should he use? (he's a carpenter and has quite a few to choose from)

Is it the board that looks like plywood but has a slightly bumpy surface? Personally, I usually cut with a sharp utility knife where the cut is to be made and then if he has a circular saw with a sharp blade it should work. Alternatively, if splinters occur, sand the edge with a sanding block.
Edit: a plunge saw with a rail is even better

Ok then I know, I have such on the trailer myself, I think there is some form of plastic coating on it, I sawed with a circular saw and fine-toothed blade from the backside along the board so it became straight, maybe a bit of fraying on the edge, but I didn't care too much.
He says it splinters. Damn, the board costs 1400 SEK. Oh well, he'll have to figure it out.Mazen said:
