I have a wood dresser with 3 drawers wide and 3 drawers high. I would like to make it into 2 dressers, 1 with 3 drawers high and the other one with 3 drawers high and 2 drawers wide. What is the best way to cut it?

I believe it has a veneer surface....
Why not just pry the top off and use a saw to shorten it to the height you want.
Not super easy. Remove top and drawers, draw your cut line and use a fine tooth blade on a skill saw and cut. Will have to add sides to cut ends and new tops. Probably will need to make a new base or add feet.
