[QUOTE="wolfmjc, post: 118640, member: 2399"] just an opinion here, i have done some work with some lexan and plexiglass and I would be careful what type of cutting method you use. there is a special blade for a jigsaw (it has no teeth just a texture) but this is a difficult way to cut as it will melt the material as it cuts and a variable speed jigsaw is really needed. I would try a dremel tool, with a small saw ?attachment so you could set a low speed to keep the temp down? If you get to "rough" the material will crack... #-o :idea: [/QUOTE]
