Since you work with it all the time is there a way to bond the acrylic with an inner/outer layer.

For Instance, if I wanted to bond a black or smoke acrylic with a canary orange/yellow for the inside so that it is strong bond and makes a nice clean seam?

Not totally sure what you mean exactly mean, any pictures ? ....

Normally when gluing Acrylic (Edges) I am using glue from Acrifix (The 1XX serie)

well when/if I build my own case I plan on having an internal structue and an external one for added strength and design aspect.

So, If I sandwich two different sheets together say a black and a orange sheet....what would be the best chemical to use so that I have a clean seam between the two....aka no melting or irregularities.

I think the link you provided is the answer I needed anyways....

Now I need to find a good place to get some 3/8" sheets in the colors I want.

So its not the edges, but the 2 hole surfaces you want to glue together ? .... Its not easy to make totally perfect, but depending of the size Acrifix could be used - Mostly working with CNC so no glue expert, sorry ...

You can use 3M spray adehsive as well and it works just fine.
