If I had a large number of them to do I would lay out all the cut
lines on them a lay them side by side then cut as many as I could in
one pass with a circular saw then flip and cut the other side. Will
probably take a 12 in saw to do it in two passes without having to
finish with a hand saw .....dont think they are terribly expensive to
rent.
