Often customers need a rounded corner on their acrylic or wood, particularly when using it as a tabletop protector. For the most aesthetically pleasing finish you must follow the same contours of the piece of furniture you're placing it on and to do this you'll need to know the radius of the corner. But how do you work out the radius of a corner? We've written this simple guide to help you.
You will need:
2 straight edges
A curved corner
Step 1
Place a straight edge along each surface edge of the curved corner as in the diagram below and mark the points where the curve starts (A)
Step 2
From (A) create straight lines so that they both meet to make a quarter of a circle.
Step 3
Measure the length of each line, they should be the same. This is your radius.
Now that you know the radius you can have us cut it for you on your cut-to-size acrylic or wood sheets. Select ‘yes’ for rounded corners, click on the corners you'd like rounded (top left, top right, bottom left, bottom right) and then use the dropdown to select your radius. Please note radius corners are in millimetres and the minimum we can do with our CNC cutters is 5mm.

Everything was mm perfect, perfect quality and clearly labelled.
There was a slight delivery mix up (which to be fair was DHL’a fault) Cutmy handled it exactly as I would have wanted, refunded the delivery fee and got the rest of the package out next day.

Ordered 3 lengths of veneered mdf
Ordered 3 lengths of veneered mdf. Two arrived with veneer grain running longitudinally with the longest side and one cross grain.
Apparently you have to specify how the grain should run- otherwise it appears they'll cut anyway they like!
Firm has offered to rectify the issue so ultimately should get what was wanted

Very nice
I’ve ordered few pieced of wood with cutout it was delayed few days which is understandable since they had been busy this month every cutout is the exact size I entered. I place another order would recommend for DIY, if you have a problem just email the company they usually sort it out real quickly!

Looks great - well cut, packaged and presented
I used the full height wall panelling to cover a wall in an upstairs corridor in our house. It was delivered on time, was perfectly cut, packaged and presented with clear and simple instructions. At the price we paid as well, I am more than delighted - so much so Ive just placed another order to do a complete room. Very highly recommended.

Great product
Happy with the product (perspex table top), also with the customer service, they were helpful after I made a mistake with my measurements. The only thing I would say slightly negative is that I did order a polished edges (as I have very young children) but the table tops edges albeit polished - at the 'bottom' parts of the edging they are still very sharp, enough for a serious cut, god forbid a child would drag their hand along. As I am not sure if the perspex wouldn't crack if we tried to 'smooth' that edging ourselves, for now we've put a sellotape all around the edging and that made it ok.
