From http://blog.ponoko.com/2010/06/17/how-to-make-snug-joints-in-acrylic/ "...a sharp corner is creating a weak point in the acrylic. Not good when this is structurally an important part of the design. A small radii in that corner does wonders to transfer the forces from one face of the hole or slot to the other and reduces the risk of the material splitting at the corner." This little tutorial shows how to do this in Sketchup. Once you done with your model export it to 2D and send for laser cutting
