You drill plexiglass with a standard HSS drill at a low speed and with a piece of wood right where the drill point will exit the work.
a standard bit or tile bit will work fine

how do you get egg off of plexiglass
I cut and work with plexiglass a lot, and find Bi Metal Hole Saws to be best, especially if they are used in a drill press at a fairly low speed.

Most plexiglass does scratch, acrylic plexiglass can resist scratches better then most types but will still get them.
Yes. Plexiglass is a plastic, whereas glass is comprised mainly of silicas. Glass is about twice as dense as plexiglass, so a sheet of plexiglass is lighter than a sheet of glass the same size.
My acrylic cracked on my tanning bed can I replace it with plexiglass?
It may also be used for plastics or plastic laminates.
with a drill bit......ANS 2 - It helps if you use an automatic centre punch first, so the bit doesn't slide. Also it's better if the drill bit is NOT new, so the edges are not extremely sharp. Drill at a fairly low speed (450-500 rpm) for best results. ( This all applies to Plexiglass too )
Absolutely. You should be perfectly safe if you walk into a war zone wearing nothing but plexiglass.
Plexiglass is a hardened form of plastic that is used as a cheaper source for glass. Plexiglass is stronger because it tends to bend on impact instead of shatter like glass.
To cut plexiglass you should use a handsaw and make sure it is a handsaw that can cut in straight lines. You should also measure out how you much you need and what shape you need.
