Gee, that's funny...I was in the glass business for over 22 yrs and
that was the only way we cut plexiglass unless it was a pattern cut.
Used a circular saw for 1/4" or thicker Lexan.
What sort of blade? Every time I've tried it (not many because it doesn't
work ;-) I either melt the edge (and gum up the blade) or it shatters (and
tries to kill me).
