Hello all! what are the best things to make with Acrylics? I am a newbie and this will be my first project with acrylics. Thank you in advanced!
The whole point of the forum is to share projects, but it’s not always obvious to see how to search for them.
In the advanced search options, try searching for acrylic in the “made on a glowforge” category. Like this:
https://community.glowforge.com/search?q=acrylic%20%23glowforge-project-examples%20in%3Afirst
It is also sometimes called plexiglass, perspex, or even PMMA.

(there were no results for PMMA, which I was a little boooo about.)
As for where to get some acrylic (no doubt your next question), check out #1a:

You can also look in the Glowforge Catalog to see what is possible. At the top of the forum screen there is a Gallery that you can look through as well.

Oh yeah if you’re just after pics in a tight format I always forget this little workaround:

Google image search lets you really tear through the examples in the forum.
