Going to try cutting balsa sheet stock on my XL, any tips or tricks?

I’ve got some 1mm upcut endmills, intended for PCB I think, and a 1/8 collet for the DeWalt router.

The stock I want to cut ranges from 1/8’ thick to 5/32" thick.

I am planning to use the blue-tape+CA work holding strategy, and to leave tabs in the through cuts.

Does any of that sound really wrong? Any advice one what I ought to do to maximize chances of success?

Any ideas on the best way to fillet/chamfer this material would also be appreciated.

TIA
