Will this cut cardboard? If so how thick?

I use mine to cut card stock (for quilting templates). The thickest I have tried is about 65 lbs (thickness). I haven't tried it with cardboard (as in a traditional cardboard box material).

I believe it will. I have used it to cut numerous pieces of paper at one time, without any issues.

Based on my experience, I would say no. It struggled being able to cut properly through a piece of paper about double the thickness of typical computer paper. I doubt it can handle even the thinnest of fabrics.

It has more than enough power. Really depends on how thick the cardboard is. If it's 1/8 or more it will most likely jam.

The corigated cardboard across the raised wave would be a bit tough...with the wave would probably work. i use mine for I1-ply cardboard, thick batting, quilted fabrics, upholstery, heavy fabric & soft plastic. I AM AMAZED THAT THE SCISSORS HOLD THEIR CHARGE A VERY LONG TIME. WEEKS OF UN-USE & THEY ARE CUTTING WITHOUT A CHARGE.

Definitely will go through cardboard. Fill the box with folded newspaper or magazines then test to make sure it does not pass completely through. This is a powerful BB gun not an air soft.

I Would not recommend trying to shred something like that. I have seen more expensive type shredders struggle with cardboard. It may be okay if you shred in small strips. But it will eat up credit cards, CD's, and DVD's with no problem. Hope this helps

Yes, but if the cardboard is heavier you have to roll back and forth once or twice for a clear cut through.

I just got this. I have cut magazines up to 0.5 inches thick. I bought it to digitize my magazine collection. I haven't tried to cut any thick types of paper.

doubt it can cut it at all! More for fabric, cardboard, leather etc. Blade is similar to serrated not a saw type blade. try plywood blade on skill saw or a router or a band saw

This is probably thicker than you'd like for shelf liner but it can be certainly used in that fashion. It is definitely easy to cut and I think it will maintain a smooth edge once it flattens.

It most definitely won't cut a 2mm. soft wood. It's a good & precise tool, but only for light duty use. - It will handle business card thickness cardstock, but nothing more. - I have since obtained a Zutter Round-it-All Heavy Duty Corner Rounder to cut the 1/32" card I use. The cut isn't as clean as I would like, but it beats doing it by hand with scissors. Martha Stewart makes an inexpensive heavy-duty corner rounder that I would like to try, but they don't say what the radius of the cut is. (I require a 1/8" radius, equivalent to a 1/4" diameter.) If you search corner rounder on eBay, you will see many varieties from light duty to heavy duty table mounted ones. It most definitely won't cut a 2mm. soft wood.

I expect it depends on the material being cut. The plywood and thin material I have used, it splinters. It cuts a straight line but does not cut as I expected it to do as the ad depicted.

yes it will, if you cut the boards twice. I use this saw to cut 5/4" by 6" decking into thinner planks for some trim things on jobsites. You will have to go slow and make sure you keep the material straight and plumb. Only other tools I own that i could make a cut like that with are band saw (stuck at a shop) or planer (take forever and make too much dust). Maybe not what this saw was intended for but it works great. Get a sharp good blade and you it will work no problem.

It is a compress cardboard 1/8" thick. I believe will be easy to cut off with a small hand handle tool. Like a bread knife of small saw.

It will cut through cardboard, fabric, thin wood and leave cut marks on my table. I'm sure it will cut through felt. It's a handy gadget. I'm as is fixed with the results. It has various sized circles to use which are kept in the handle for storage.

I think it might possibly slip in place to cut but I do not think this cutter would be strong enough to cut paper that thick. Card stock worked well so I think that might be best.
