Plank flooring needs relatively few tools. If you’re trying to work out the way to cut. Experts endorse scoring the plank with a utility knife and shattering it. Vinyl scissors are a decent solution too. For more difficult cuts, consider a jigsaw or miter saw. Other tools you’ll need include a measurement tape, chalk or crayon, a straight edge, and a vacuum. Some manufacturers recommend a tapping block and rubber mallet.
