cutting a triangle out of plastic

admin

I want to cut a triangle out of plastic. I would like to make the triangle about 2 feet x 3 feet long.What is the best way to cut this sort of angle?Band saw?
Reply:I would think the bandsaw would work.  The biggest thing is the blade and speed you cut it with.  If it's going to fast the plastic will melt and not cut good.

Reply:Jigsaw and a straight edge works, as does a table saw with a fine cut blade, or a band saw, as mentioned above.MM350P/Python/Q300MM175/Q300DialarcHFHTP MIG200PowCon300SMHypertherm380ThermalArc185Purox oaF350CrewCab4x4LoadNGo utilitybedBobcat250XMT304/Optima/SpoolmaticSuitcase12RC/Q300Suitcase8RC/Q400Passport/Q300Smith op

Reply:circular saw works fine. i had to make a lot of cuts in 20" pvc pipe, had a wall over a inch thick. makes shavings like crazy.
