What kind of bit did you use to cut this?

I used a 1/8" two flute flat nose endmill.
Brent Bousquet

There are a few big factors to consider when working with acrylic but the biggest I have seen by far is the type of acrylic you use. If you make a thread about it on the forum I would be more than happy to help. I cant give a full comment as they only let you type 300 characters in the comments.
