You're better off cutting it by hand. A Sawzall will get away from you
too easily and make a real mess. Go down to your local lumber yard and
get one those short tapered fine tooth keyhole saws (probably called
some thing else now, maybe utility saw, whatever). It will be more
grunt work, but think how nice your abs will look when you're done.
