Help with acrilic was created by jvalencia
The finished piece is opaque, how can I make it transparent? I used a 6mm 2-flute end mill.

If you see the small pockets, they were done with a 2mm 1-flute end mill and they are more transparent.

Try to polish or heat (flame or hot air)

Tried with a flame but still not transparent.

I might look at acrilic end mills.
