Picked up a large sheet of thin (.08) acrylic plastic. Would like to cut out pieces to use as see-thru ship bases. Any tips on how to cut neatly pieces of acrylic? Can one score and snap or will that leave messy edges? Your idea ware welcome, thanks. Dan |

Laser cutting is best, of course, but the above will work. |

When I ran a warehouse for a sign company wholesaler we had lots of acrylic sheets. They were all cut with a fine toothed table or skill saw. |

Hook ended Stanley knife blade. Removes the material from the cut. |
