Need a piece of acrylic cut

[PotHuntR]

Anyone have a quick method or tool to cut acrylic? It is .22 thick and I only need four cuts to finish my new sump.

Thanks

I have always used a table saw to cut acrylic.

I tried a table saw anf it shattered. Colin was successful in using a table saw i just used a level and razor knife. It cut very easy and was clean.

Tile saw is better than a table saw. If you take your time on a table saw, you can get perfect cuts.

Michael if it is under 21" I can cut it for you on my router table. A router with a fence is the best method I have found. We need to hook up anyway.
