I'm sure some people are thinking "why?" but it was an idea I've had for a while and wouldn't have wasted much if it didn't work.

I was surprised how clean the cut was in polycarbonate, I've used a jigsaw on acrylic before and the heat from the blade leaves a rough (melted) finish whereas the polycarbonate was very smooth and just need some sanding and plastic cutting paste to get a pretty professional looking finish. The bending was a little tricky due to the thickness I used, I'm going to try thinner sheet for version 2 and see if that's better.
