Can it cut thru poster board paper?

Yes - it can cut through poster board - one sheet at a time. I used it on very heavy recycled paper to make round wedding fans. It did very well on that!

I wouldn't think so. It's for a rough-cut sort of use for packaging and wrapping. You'd need more of a sliding sharp blade device. I sell fine art prints and this would NOT be an option. If you don't have many to cut, get a nice cork-backed metal ruler and an X-acto blade.

In response to your question, I took a heavy cardboard box that had been used to ship produce and tried to cut it. I cut the cardboard into several pieces and it cut smoothly but with a slight resistance (a little more force than with plain paper). Accordingly, within the dimensions of the cutting board and guard, you should have no problems.

yes, but you would have to clamp it down. and I wouldn't recommend that for common use. It's just so heavy that a cheaper cutter would be easier in the long run. It also has a problem cutting straight (regardless of how much paper you cut)

I usually cut 4-5 sheets of 22lb paper at a time. It really cuts poster board as well.

Yes, it can do full cuts which cut through the label and backing, or half cuts that cut through only the label.

no!!! It cuts the snowflake but you can't get the paper out without tearing it.

I do believe it would as I have cut 4 Britol Board prints at one time with no problem. Blade is exremely sharp and is not one of your typical paper cutters found in schools. Eric Lucero

I don't see why not. I use it mainly for cardstock. If you cut more than one layer though, you want to make sure that you have a really strong press on the paper, as it can tend to slightly move with the depression of the blade.

I would say no. I don't see how the poster could be attached, and the product leaves a slightly rough cut edge. I would suggest an office cutting board. The type that cuts the heaver mil paper into post cards.

No. I don't think so. I use it for rolls of thin paper to cover tables with. I would not use it for precise cutting.

I haven't tried, but I doubt scissors could do the job. The pad is about 1/16 of an inch thick, but it is soft flexible material. You might be able to cut through it with a box cutter or other razor type knife, but it would take several passes, and you would lose the pad's nice rounded corners.

Yes, you could, just have to be really careful, as the sheets are very thin and yes, you can cut it with scissors as any piece of paper

Hi Debra: I have used this tool to cut out graphics printed on matte photo paper and it does just fine. No worries.

Yes. You can use this cutter to create puzzles. You'll have to either find and purchase a puzzle file or have patience and create your own. It will cut through chipboard (light weight) with a few passes without issue.

Yes. It's a piece of junk. Absolutely impossible to pull paper through without the edges getting caught.

Yes, it will cut through, as long as you take into account: 1) You have to have the hand strength to compress the punch to cut through a thicker material. If you can't squeeze the punch hard enough, the blades can't do the work. 2) The blades will be initially sharp enough, but will dull a tiny bit with each use. To sharpen the blades, cut through a very fine sandpaper a few times. You will feel the difference. 3) If the contact paper has a sticky adhesive, it will get on the blades and you will need to stop and clean them. You could try one of the label removing solvents, like Glue Gone, on a cotton ball or rag.
