I'm considering casting, although at this point I just want onesies, not
any great quantities.

Acrylic stock shapes are available either cast or extruded. The cast
stuff has better optical properties.

As for tough clear plastics, polycarbonate (Lexan) is the most obvious
alternative to acrylic, but more difficult to polish.
