What materials can this cut? Can you cut a thin metal with it?

We haven't tried that... but it can cut thick plastic, such as credit card thickness. No thin metal here to try cutting.

We've used it on a variety of plastic materials. Would you want metal picks?

this was a gift and he hasn't used it yet . But on the box it says it can be used to cut credit cards, gift cards, id cards, plastic lids and endless kinds of materials. I would think that if the metal is as this as a credit card it would work

Isn't the blade the key to cutting anything? You can use this saw to cut darn near everything, including non-ferrous metals, IF you install the correct blade.

It is a harder type of plastic..If I was going to cut it, I was use a hot knife and a straight edge. And, just keep working it.So, yes I think it could be cut, but not necessarily without effort..

Yes, That's the way I use mine.. I would not cut anything really hard though.. Copper, Silver and Gold should be OK though

You need to purchase a chop saw if you want to cut metal. This saw is only suitable for wood.

Cuts thin metal like butter, thicker metal is a lot slower, but it will cut it.

It's a pretty hefty saw, so I don't plan on using it for cutting anything but concrete, block or brick. I know the blade that came with it can cut metal since I cut through an 8" concrete wall with 1/2" re-bar inside. No doubt a person could find a wood blade to fit it but doing that a lot could take out an operator's back since it is a heavy saw--there are a lot of lighter saws for buzzing wood.

Sorry, i have no idea! But i would guess this is not the tool for sheet metal unless you got a special blade for thin metal stock.

I don't think it would cut very well. It has a magnetic strip on the inside that is glued on so you would have to cut through that. The other material is a very hard plastic that might splinter

I. Don't know. I never cut metal with them. We are very pleased with our set. However, our grandson did use one of the knives to cut styrofoam, and also cut into our wooden table, and it did dull it somewhat.

there is some videos on you tube that shows how to cut metal. But be very careful because if you jam it you void the warranty!! Watch what not to do with a vagabond first.

The material is heavy duty plastic but probably could be cut easily with a jig saw. Shouldn't be a problem at all.

No. Not unless you have the ability to cut metal and it is pretty sturdy thick metal.

It can be cut with just a normal pair of shears. As I mentioned, I used mine for metal clay work sheets so I have my large piece all cut into various smaller pieces.

These are made of a pliable foam/plastic type material. Although I have not tried to cut mine, I would probably use a power miter saw to do so for the cleanest cut. I'm sure it would cut with a utility knife (box cutter) as well.

It has metal trim. So if you have somethign to cut metal, I suppose. I would reccomend finding one shorter if you want the want the metal trim or getting one without the trim that you can cut to size.
