I'm doing a little project on a perf board that has lines of traces (all
in one direction). I'll have local "runs" of 2-5, which will be
isolated by breaking the trace on each end. What is the best way to do
this: Exacto knife, Dremel, vibrating engraver, other?

Thanks,
Bob

BTW - I haven't actually tried any of these yet - maybe it's so easy
that this is a stupid question. If so, sorry, & I'm not trolling.
