So, I've read...
When cutting Acrylic using power skilsaw, table saw, etc, make sure the blade is:
* Triple-Chip tooth
* Carbide tipped
* Has Clearance angle 10-15 degrees
* Has Rake Angle 0-5 degrees
Figured someone may find it useful.

Re: Cutting acrylic
For what it's worth, I've found that when drilling acrylic with ordinary drill bits (there are special plastic ones) that a few drops of liquid dishsoap seem to work well in keeping the bit from binding or chipping.
