I am wanting to see what kind of results anyone has had with carving plastics on the CW. I am wanting to make a mold to do some plastics casting and was thinking about using cast acrylic. My concern is that I need the surface to be ultra smooth to get the best finish possible so my castings come out slick. I tried a test with a piece of HDPE last week with much success, but I wasn't able to finish sand or polish the surface to a level that I was happy with.
Has anyone done cast acrylic and if so, what were the results?
