You are the lord and master of Acrylic :D
Now can you build me a small house out of that stuff?

I wanted to announce that I have added a substantial Photo Guide to this FAQ.

I have been going off with the acrylic this week--but because it is part of the Case Mod Comp 3.0 I will have to wait until after it is over to add the pictures to this FAQ--but what I can tell you is that it shows how to make a template and use that to do some fairly intricate routing of some thin plexi. I will also have a section to add about special lighting effects (hush hush just now) that can be obtained by using acrylic. IMO one of the most fascinating and delightful aspects of acrylic is the way you can use it to play with light--especially concealed lights. The idea is to have the acrylic light up without any sign of how or where the light is...
I will most likely be adding a section on polishing as this is what seperates hack work from masterful craftmanship. Some time with the torch and the buffing wheel can transform a dull rough cut into a jewel-like surface. Stay tuned!
