Anyone have experience in accurately cutting 1/8" thick acrylic Plexiglas

I need to make filters for some panel meters of my own design, but am having
trouble finding off-the-shelf bezels and filters of the sizes I need.
Before everyone tells me that there are cheap Chinese panel meters available
on the web, I already know about them. My meters are for a unique
application and the available digital panel meters can't be modified to fill
my needs. The display is the really unique part, and I need to make my own
filters for the displays. I need 3 different sizes; 1.25" x 2.5". 2.75" x 5"
and 4" x 5".
I've thought about using a table saw with a cabinet-grade finishing blade.
That's possible, but somewhat dangerous due to the small size of the
filters.
A triple chip for plastic would be your best bet.
