I have searched the web and there seem to be two general approaches to
cutting this stuff. One is to score it deeply on the back and then cut it
with a jig saw maybe using masking tape to minimize the chip out. The

second
approach seems to be to do it with a table saw taking care to prevent the
melamine from slipping under the fence.

Don't even attempt to screw around with this one.

Find a cabinet refacing shop in your area that has an edge cutting machine
for laminate.

Used to cut strips of laminate from a full sheet.

Basically, it uses a couple of rollers to break the material on a straight
line.

No way in hell can you duplicate the cut it will make.

Go with a cold 12 pack, late in the afternoon.

You should be good to go.
