Folks act like I'm sitting on my hands. Evidently, I need to learn to
work Lexan Polycarbonate! It's sort of like wood, except you can see

Biggest problem is it melts when cut with high speed implements is
what I experienced. I can set my bandsaw on slow as she goes and avoid
the melting problem.


I didn't have a problem with that when I cut Lexan on my table saw a year or so ago. And I've
cut plexiglas (acrylic) on the table saw many times without a melting problem.
