Since this thing has a 5" integrated backsplash, whats the best
tool/method to accomplish a nice smooth square cut?

Circular saw from the underside?




Found that article a few years back. Made the jig. Worked like a charm.
Same integrated backsplash. Came out perfect. Had never cut a countertop
before.
