I wonder if I can use a pen knife to cut it but it will take ages or even damage on the process... and of course it more hard to get a clear clean cut.

That's using Laser Or WaterJet

Pen Knife or Normal Cutter cant do that ...

You see all the details and those curves ... If use Hand .... you will scream and banging your head ... Hahaha tongue.gif

it's laser cut work .. .look at the edge of the wording and u would know..

if it's hand cut the edge surface would be cacat and need lots of hand sanding work to get it smooth ... brows.gif

there is a shop at Leisure Mall cheras that do laser cutting on acrylic loh ..

my cousin did her project with acrylic as well ... they'll cut it out for you, with the AutoCAD design ... the rate is around RM 8.00 per minute i think

it's pretty quick for simple design

after cutting a line, your hand need to rest for a week.

but still a good one to do a simple design cutting

using hand to cut
it is impossible to get nice cutting edge and also require a lot of yr time
trust me still need to use laser tool to cut
very fast and expensive
depend on the design more curve more $$$
