I've been cutting .080 Acrylic at 8mm/s, 10mA, .125" Acrylic at 7mm/s, 10mA, .250" Acrylic at 4mm/s, 10mA. Is there anything wrong with going a little too slow, to make sure its cut through ALL the way? Inputting decimal speeds makes Moshi react funny, so my reliable increments are basically in huge 1mm/s bumps. Is it best to cut in 1 pass, when possible?
