When working with this material, what precautions should be taken? Is the dust similar to that of fiberglass?

That's rough. I'd find a way to get it! It's great stuff to work with, and is really a pretty ideal solution to the problem.

It can be cut with hand tools easily, and also cuts nice on wood tools. The dust is fiberglass, so vaccum while you cut and don't breathe it.
