Square tight fits make for a strong joint. I glue a facing dish to my table
saw blade before cutting to get square cuts, then just hit the edge lightly
with sandpaper before gluing. Glad you brought plexiglass up as I need to
build a go box for my radio gear, one where the radio stays mounted and you
just grab it and go, take it out set it up connect power antenna and you are
transmitting. Either that or make out of wood.

BUT, you have to be really really careful not to round the edges...
On the TV show, it did round the edge (ever so slightly). But they wanted
that effect.
But why would rounded edge be bad? Would that create a place for the
"crack" to start? Or you are saying that complete square edge would look
better attached to another 90 degree edge.
Just curious. I have no opinion either way.
