Just did this myself using a jigsaw with a plexiglass blade and it worked perfectly.

How do you measure the size of the acrylic

Hey man, really appreciate this video. Do the doors ever stick to each other while sliding, considering there's no track seperating them?

What do you use to cut the metal edging, and do you use 1/2 " for the side channels and 1/4 " for top and bottom?

I use a jig saw with a bi-metap blade for cutting the track. I use a dual 1/4" track for the top and bottom. Keeps the glass from rubbing and scratching. I use 1/2" on the sides if I use it.

Both glass in one aluminum rail sir?

I have done both 1/4" pieces in a 1:2" rail before but I switched and started using a divided rail. I got it from woodworkerexpress.(com). Part number 4041. They also sell it in a longer length. It is the upper rail, so has no rollers or anything. I used it too and bottom.

Cabinets can display anything. Nobody but nobody addresses the issue of shop dust covering the French cleat items. Cabinets with sliding doors will solve the problem. No back to cabinet. Hang French cleat items in cabinet frame. Use lexan panel for visibility. Your thoughts. Better yet build one and make the video!!!! Thx Bruce. Cleats and Cabinets ( sort of like root beer and ice !)
