I’ve done this surgery with a fine-toothed blade on a table saw, a sharp knife, a router, and a syringe full of Plexiglas solvent cement.  You’ll need a new piece of plexi for the top.

Subject: [MUSEUM-L] Cutting plexi

 

Does anyone have experience with cutting down their Plexiglas exhibit case tops? We have a couple of vertical tops that have cracks at the corners and would like to shorten them in the hopes that they will last longer. I’m looking to find out what the process would be and the tools that are needed. Thanks for the help.
