It WILL bow like crazy the way you have it..
I see a failure in your future..

I wish you would have explained what you were doing so we could have corrected your mistakes and not let you continue..

IMO rip it all out and start again with .220"(1/4") material..

Number 1 is finger boards on your table saw..
number 2.. sandwich the piece between a sheet of cheap plywood and use finger boards push very slowly

and i agree that acrylic is much to thin if there is any back pressure on it ..
