A cutting apparatus for fiberglass insulation and the like for use at home or on construction sites. The apparatus includes a workboard with a groove thereacross and a blade which may be moved through the groove to cut fiberglass insulation placed on the workboard. An elongated handle attached to the blade allows insulation to be cut from a standing position. Fiberglass leavings are collected in a chamber associated with the groove so as to not impede the cutting operations. Collection of the leavings and cutting from a standing position reduce the respiratory hazard associated with airborne fiberglass fibers. The apparatus permits individual pieces of fiberglass insulation to be cut to size in a non-factory setting quickly and without waste of material.
