Rusty,

If you're having trouble drilling plexi, you can try a trick that works about 85% of the time for me. Deliberately dull the drill at the point where the grind angle transitions to the outside diameter of the bit. By dulling these 'ears', it will prevent the bit from catching as you drill.

You can also pilot drill your holes with a propane torch and a nail.
