Pretty risky in my experience


or cut with a regular fine tooth saw?

Table saw with sharp blade works fine. They say an ATB 60 tooth blade
is best.

Do you think I'd be able to use a hole saw to cut finger holes in it?

Yes. Use two hole saws, best on a drill press. Smaller pilot hole
first will keep splintering of larger holes to a minimum. Must be
really, really sharp. Support the stock well.

What he said, plus tape the area to be cut.

That can make it easier to mark up the work, prevent skidding,
and reduce splintering.

If you have a TAP Plastics store nearby, I'd encourage you
to visit them. Their people seem to be very knowledgable
and helpful. I have gotten lots of good input there on
material selection, cutting techniques, suitable adhesives,
and more.
