yes but the blade rotates 360 degrees.... so if your cutting a rounded corner you dont need to back of as much....plexi glass doesnt like to vibrate either so make sure whatever your cutting is clamped down good and tight.

bah.... i make the blade move a little faster next time. but no melting occured... used a fine metal blade
I used a jig same and took my time, I used a hole saw for circles and took my time . You can also score the sheet with a plastics knife but that takes as long as cutting with a jigsaw. But like said before it REALLY likes to vibrate
Use a sabersaw (jigsaw) with variable speed control, a relatively low speed as to not remelt and bond behind the blade after you cut it. Play with various types of blades. What worked for me is a fairly course blade and slow. When I redid my windshield this worked well. I did have one small crack about an inch lond that I lived with.
