A woodworkers or metalworkers bandsaw with a fine blade can be used, but it 
sometimes creates interlocking fuzz on the edge of the outer most paper. A bit 
of finishing can help with this... say on a disc sander. The bandsaw blade 
must be sharp, and well tensioned, or you can end up with a wavering edge on your 
prints.
