Does anyone have the capability to cut acrylic?

[mufret]

I need to make a filter sock holder and have the acrylic and the weldon but do not have the equipment to cut it or make holes big enough for the filter socks to fit in. Does anyone have the necessary equipment? Will be glad to pay you for your time and expertise. PLMK. Thanks, Mike

I have a table saw but I don't have a hole saw that large. Could try to cut the circular hole with the jig saw but that isn't going to be a nice cut by any means.

Just had a thought

How big of hole do you need I have hole saws up to 4" and I use a a circular saw with a 60 tooth blade to cut it at work.

Good idea. I can pull mine and use it as a template and then use a flush cutting bit on the router table. Never would have thought about that. Mike, if you want to make a trip out this way we can knock it out whenever you like.

Rich. just drill a hole in the table and use it as a pivot point and spin the item around to cut a circle.
