here is a pic of the home made tube cutting jig I use.



I have cut 9" tube on this jig by myself. oh also remember a proper acrylic blade for the saw is a god send, you can buy a high number tooth blade and it kinda works but needs a lot of clean up. if you use say a 120 or 160 tooth blade you will most likely just melt the acrylic and make a mess depending on your luck. a proper blade lets you go strait from the table saw to the gluing station with no additional edge prep.
