How to cut PFL Laminate sheet the easy way
Cutting large plastic laminate sheets 96x34 (or any size) using a straight edge, a trim router and a 3/8 flush cut router bearing bit.
You could use a 1/4" bit but it does not have a bearing on the end and sometimes creates problems. A bearing bit is much smoother riding on the straight edge and will keep the straight edge in good condition for future work.
A larger bit will just create more waste (dust). No one wants to clean up dust so when indoors I use a 3 meter Bosch hose attached to a Ridgid ProPack 5HP shop VAC.
I don't like rolling vacs in a finished kitchen for obvious reasons. The main reason is they get pulled into and ding corners and doors. This ProPack has all the power and stability, coupled with the soft flexibility of the long Bosch hose making cleaning up so fast and easy.

I needed a new hose and found Cen-Tec with ALL the connectors included. WOW... https://amzn.to/3hF6WkS
I have cut Laminate with almost every conceivable method and I have found that this is the fastest, portable, adjustable, flexible, lightest, lower-cost method to cut PFL sheets I have found. I love it. If you try it, you will find just how accurate and fast this method can be.
