I've got various electric hand saws you're welcome to borrow. I'd try a
fine-toothed blade on a jigsaw or reciprocating hand saw. You've got to
clamp the acrylic down so it doesn't vibrate, it will chip/break fairly
easily with power tools.
At a shop that works with it, I think they cut it and then put a torch
to it briefly which will clean up any scuffs and make it crystal clear.
