I need to cut several panels for window
glazing out of Lexan. I know how to cut
and score plexie or acrylic but haven’t
sawn Lexan. Anyone know from glass the
best blade to use?

Use a good carbide blade, tape the area withmasking tape or tape your shoe (either to prevent scratching), use a good straight edge, set the blade deep, and take it slow, nice cut every time, trim the fuzz off with a utility knife blade. The material seems to melt and fuse as you go thru it. Have use a wood cutting blade in a jig saw for curves, again, tape the shoe to prevent scratching.
