What types of saws are recommended for cutting?
For small jobs fine-toothed hand saws such as fret saws or hack saws are recommended. The work must be securely fixed and only light pressure applied. Powered saws with blades having alternative teeth beveled, as for aluminium, are particularly recommended for sawing acrylic as are band saws, jig saws and fret saws.
