Re: Cutting Lexan
I just ran across this Acrylic Sheet Fabrication Manual that has a lot of good info on cutting and machining Plexiglas/Acrylic.

I know that a lot of teams may not have this luxury, but just about all our lexan was laser-cut.

The size of the pieces you are cutting is limited by the size of the bed. If you were cutting a piece over three feet long you would have trouble. But I must agree, for small pieces or small parts you can't beat the 0.03" wide cutting path. Lucky guys!!!
