For cutting plastic, is there a suitable router bit that would work?

Don't know. Need a good finish on bottom and sides and radius, all with
one cutter.

Any chance you can use a fly cutter with a hand radiused (sp) bit after
leaving 1/4" of material on the bottom?

I agree with Dennis - I cut UHMW all the time and a router bit will do
the best job (use about 6000 RPM)
