    I cnc machine polycarbonate protectors on my machining centers. I've never had an issue with "yellowing".

    Acrylic is VERY brittle and is very tricky to machine without breakage, (I do it all of the time, but then again, I've been machining plastic for 35+ years).

    This is my latest machining center. It cost $80k
