JonnyBoy:

I'm pretty sure the general idea when cutting lucite is to score and snap it...or maybe that was lexan? Eh, I'm sure somebody helpful will reply soon.

Q*Bert_OP:

I tried that and it shatters.

Not 100% sure with Lexan, I haven't used any yet.  With plexi glass you can use a fine tooth saw for straight cuts.  If you want a rounded edge you can also use a router.  I recommend you get some scrap pieces and test your skills before you dig in.  Once you get the "feel" it should be no problem.

whatever you do don't use a dremel tool. you will have gummed up plasticy shards flying everywhere and ruining your dad's.... uuuuhhh... YOUR dremel bits.   ::)
