I would like to see acrylic glueing as well. And maybe just describe what tools and methods you use to machine acrylic, what the differences are from wood working?

The two most important tools to have are a router with a good flush trim bit and a table saw. For saw blades, there are special plastic cutting blades where the teeth on the blades are designed to reduce melting and provide cleaner cuts (i.e. less chipping). Usually they recommend 80 tooth blades for 1/8-3/8th thickness, 60 tooth blades for 3/8" and up.

Just a little teaser on the silver pom pom I might bring , I think the color is amazing. You can see the color comparison to the regular pulsing beside it

Dad, what if I want a whole cookie, and not just a piece?

I have the white pulsing xenia too, they are much nicer than my regular brown ones. If only they would grow as fast, I have found the brown to spread quicker.
