Diamond scribers used to be available in a kit with UV pens (for
security purposes) from all sorts of places (e.g. a big WH Smiths)a few
years ago. I know RS sell them now. That should do the trick

Not used this board, but a Stanley knife will work on the high temperature
glass/cement board used (for example) above woodburners. Blades are cheap
enough!

Tried unsuccessfully to use a stanley knife. Scored the board to a depth of
about 1mm, and the board broke everywhere except where I scored with the
knife.

Not tried this, but I am considering cutting the board with a circular saw.
This is a last resort as it will be messy and may spoil the board which is
expensive.

After much experimentation, the best thing to cut this stuff is a circular
saw.
Thanks guys for your suggestions.
