I had a bear of a time cutting some plexiglass without cracking it.

It was 3/16 inch thick.

Using a very fine toothed sabre saw did not work.

I tried scoring it with a sheet rock knife.

I finally made some progress using a hack saw and going REAL slow.

Any tips ?

Indeed. Some friends needed a shelf in their kitchen window.
I bought a piece of lucite from Tap. They accept orders for
almost any size and will cut and polish to your specifications.

With lucite you really want all the edges polished.
The end result looks fantastic.
