I cut 1/8" plastic engraving stock with it. It works great if you are careful to use a sturdy straight edge and make 2 or more passes and then snap it.

the blades are very sharp so I don't see having a problem although I have not tried cutting my plastic yet.

I cut 1/8" with it. I watched YouTube videos to learn how before I tried it.

No, It won't cut anything thicker than 1/16". I have cut plastic and fabric with mine.

I would think it could do the job easily. The tool is not heavy so you won't get tired and I think you can be pretty precise with it. I was using it for my garden needs.

Tool works well for cutting rope, line, and paracord made from nylon or Dacron. I have plastic funnels which It would cut easily, and then there are others it would not. Your material is the key.

I used this on some heavy duty plastic with no effort so I think that it would punch through felt just fine.

well, it's made of plastic so it's probably not that easy to cut unless you have some professional tools I think.

I don't know. I use it mainly for cutting dense cardboard similar to a strong cereal box and around 8-10 sheets of regular 22# paper. I get square cuts by using the clamp that is operated by the crank handle that clamps the paper parallel to the cutter knife. I'm not using it in a professional manner.........just home stuff. If the guides are adjusted correctly, the measurements are close enough, easily within 1/16". This is not a machine tool for cutting to tolerances on the order of 1/1000". Be aware that this cutter is very heavy and needs a sturdy table or bench.

It depends on the gauge (thickness) of the metal you are wanting to cut, but the blade included is meant for cutting through wood, metal, and plastic.

It depends on your cut, and make sure its not that thick in diameter.8 inches long, diameter should no thicker than a pencil.

My thoughts is, the teeth on the saw will grab the plastic like material and shatter or split the plastic. I've cut plasiglass with a controlled sabre saw and if you're not carful, you can split or crack the material. Maybe go as slow as possible cutting it ...if can test..do that first.

Have not cut poly. Have cut styrene plastic 1/16th and 3/32 easily. (just turn the heat up a bit). Don't see it can't cut 1/8. Take your time...move slowly. Hope this helps. R/DLF

I would not recommend this tool for the job....not enough power. Blade has a back on it so the angle of the cut would be too shallow. Use a skillsaw or table saw or band saw with infeed/outfeed table or rollers.

I used a regular saw...the plastic is soft enough that it's easy to cut right through

Haven't tried anything smaller than 1/8" but I would guess it can handle smaller bits.

This tool is not really designed to do what I think you are doing. It is more for precision cutting and does not make long cuts in a perfecly straight line. It has a very thin blade so it doesn't remove very much material such as a piece of plexiglass would fill. It would be very difficult to make a straight level cut longer than about 4 inches. I would recommend using a router, with a fence attachment. You can clean up the corners with a hand chisel and have a nice straight step to set the plexi in.

I have used these to cut up to about 1/2" branch...takes a little muscle but works just fine.
