Does this craft punch cut plastic?

NO! I've tried. It cuts 110 lb cardstock, and 155 lb tag weight very nicely. But just can't cut plastic.

I take back my answer, after (a lot of) practice, I can get a smooth, attractive cut about 90% of the time :3--Original Answer--Yes, but it probably won't be a very attractive cut.I used it to cut plastic and it rarely came out looking good.

YES... straight cuts only, and plastic must be solidly suported on both sides of the cut and bottom to diminish or exclude vibration. And let the blade do the cutting--do not rush it.

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.

I'm not clearly understand what does card stock, but plastic cards this tool will punch.

No. I have not had success using it to cut stickers with a plastic coating or to cut plastic lighting materials.

I have used to cut truck liners so I know it works on plastic. I'm not sure if I have tried wood or not but I can't imagine why not.

No, it is a solid piece of plastic but I see no reason you couldn't cut one if it was needed.

Buy a paper punch,it would be cheaper than this tool. It's made for punching metal. I've used these type punches for the past 25 years as a sheet metal worker and they are great for metals but paper would tear...unless you punched a bunch of sheets at a time I'm guessing.

I've tried cutting through foam sheets and haven't had much luck at all. You can punch through 2 pieces of cardstock (the lightest kind) or 2 to 3 pieces of construction paper.

I've used it on all types of wood, hard and soft. It cuts great. It would depend on the thickness and type of plastic you want to cut.I don't think it would be good on all plastic, you would need a finer point saw for some.

I make reproductions of Neolithic hand tools, I use the blades to cut slots in wood and antler tines, however I can't see why they wouldn't cut sheet plastic. I would adjust the speed of your rotary tool so you are cutting, and not melting the plastic. Hope this helps.

I don't know the answer to that honestly. It will cut vinyl with the right cutting blade. But I have a feeling it won't cut fabrics. I also have not seen it advertised by cricut at all. Sorry

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

I'm not totally sure what you mean by punched. If you mean like a small hole punch for threading something through then the answer is no.

No, it only slices. The one I ordered I only used twice. The second time the plastic holding the blade broke and the blade feel out.

Yes, but the cutter is very cheap as it is plastic but the rest of the set up is well worth it.
