Hi .... cast acrylic is the best to cut, but if you use a single flute bit such as an Onsrud brand, at least a 5/32" #63-715 bit, 19,000 rpm, feed depends on the hp of your router.... you should do ok... remember too slow and it will melt!
Good luck,
Russ

I am having trouble router cutting extruded acrylic sheet, 3/8"
thick, the cutter clogs up and produces a bad finish.
I have tried different cutters, and different feeds without any joy.
