I can see all sorts of vessels that have been engraved first.
Set of containers for the kitchen?
Accessories for the desk?
Acrylic Fishtank?
etc. etc.

I've used this stuff to make up brochure holders. It really works well. Just make sure not to leave any gaps.
Also would work good for plexi dust boxes for the cnc!

I use Penloc for most of my acrylic & other plastic bonding. Penloc 1:1 for general use & GT clear for clear acrylic as it is optically clear.
Quite fancied trying their uv adhesives but the uv lamp is an expensive bit of kit for my small needs.
