Extruded Acrylic

[aaasigncom]

i agree with all of you. it doesent seam to matter about bits and speed when cutting this material. you can have several good cuts, then for some reason the next one will be bad. i figure in an extra blank when doing this kind of work because because of these problems.
> bill l looks like your surface is not level,
the stroke of the letters gets wider on the right side of your piece. when the z depth is important, i usually take some scrap and cut a pocket to fit the piece i am working with. that way i start off with a perfectly flat surface. *** i have several cases of 8" x 10" acrylic award blanks with beveled edges for sale if anyone is interested $ 12.00 each
