I want to make coping joints. Would this tool be useful for this task?

Technically it probably could since it can do some cutting tasks but I would not recommend it. There are other tools much better suited to that job - like a coping saw.

It would sure do the job, but I would think a jig saw would do the job for less. The Sawzall is a real heavy duty tool, especially good for deconstruction, where you are cutting through studs, drywall, and the occasional nail or electrical wiring, hopefully when the juice is turned off.

I would think that this tool may be powerful enough, it has as much power as any dremel that I have owned, however, depending on how big a sheet you are talking about, there may be much better tools for the job. I find that cutting metal or some other materials that are flat and wide are often challenging with a tool like this. If you get the right fiber type disc and are patient enough it will probably be fine. If you have large sheets especially ones that are 1/4 inch thick, a skill saw, table saw or even miter saw with metal cutting blades will probably make life easier.Hope this helps... it is a really good tool for many things.

In theory, this type of tool will do this. For me, this tool was not useful for anything. I'm accustomed to the all metal type of tape binding presser foot and this did not compare in any way.

Yes, I used mine to make a supportive pillow to sit on for meditation. It should work just fine for those projects.

Yes. I don't think this will be the right tool. It only cuts in circles and is hard to cut where it breaks evenly.

if you work slow and let the tool do it's work. this is a hobby tool and not built for alot of stress. Great for the price.

I'm not a professional with these tools, just a DIY-selfer, I used it to cut sheet rock, but it appears to be a stubby saw for ripping the teeth are not very fine IMHO, but your mileage may very depending on your skill set and patience after all, necessity is the mother of invention, or application in this case.

You would find this a useful tool. I work for an architect and we use it to do field measurements.

Haven't done it but went and looked at the instructions and yes, it can be used for jointing. has instructions on how to set it up.

This could be used for that purpose, but turning a bunch of hardware with the various wrenches on this tool might be a pain in the ass. It is a very bulky thing to have to twirl over and over.

I purchaced this attachement to rip some reclaimed maple to make a table for my wife. It worked great. I think it will work for what you want to do as long as you can follow a straight edge. I did rip some pressure treated landscaping timbers and it did work well. Let the saw do the work do push to hard and i think you will be fine. Good luck Dave

Probably not - would be very difficult adjusting left, middle and right side of knives. Also the refernce bar is too small. It's great for fence and and blade/table alignment. For setting the blades on my jointers I use a One Way Multi gauge Amazon Sell for about $95 - it's the best for the job.

Hello Diane,Yes, this tool would be great for the job you described. It even comes with a tile cutting blade. Hope that helps!

I would think you could use it but in reading Twain's answer. That sounds like the better solution. Lining it up would be the hard part. As the other comment said, it is quite strong and thick. You would likely only get one chance. I used it for fixing a book binding.

I find it very useful in this respect. This wonderful contraption can be positioned to reach trigger points on most parts of the body. With practice, you will enjoy great relief. Good luck and feel better.

I can't honestly say if this opener would be what you need for painful joints. However, it works exactly like the typical opener except it is far easier to insert and turn than almost all that's out there. I am happy with it currently and the proof will be (following all cleansing instructions) that it maintains quality.
