can this be used to cut felt circles?

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 will cut wool blend felt but the littler ones don't come out perfectly clean. It's not sharp enough to cut craft felt.

I'm not completely sure AI understand what you're asking. If you had an angled side and wanted to rip a piece parallel to that, it would work. But circular saws aren't designed to cut curves. It might work to some extent, but it is meant for straight cuts parallel to straight edges. If you are trying to square up a piece that isn't square, the only things that will work are squares designed to do that or some fussy triangular measuring.

No. You should look at the Fiskars Circle Cutter, which cuts 1-8 inch circles, and you set the size.

I have not used it to cut felt, but believe it would be lovely. Of all of the sets of Framelits I own, this one is my favorite and, most used. I have a good friend who makes beautiful cards and this is her favorite as well.

I am not sure that this will do the job you are hoping to do...I have heard of the foam knifes being used to cut stamps, but the ones I have heard of doing so are hot knifes. This cuts foam board well because it has the blade for the paper and the heat for the foam. I think you need more heat than what this will give you.

I'm sure you could, Paul. I'm just saying that any quilter would have a heart attack that you would want to cut paper with a rotary tool! :-) It is very sharp though, so I'm sure it would do what you want. Just don't expect to use it on fabric after that!

Hi Hannah, We have not used this on felt but as long as the fabric is not too fluffy cannot see why it would not be successful, it is very good on T shirts and we have also used it on gift boxes

I doubt it. It is for light duty. For intricate patterns a scroll saw is what you want.

I would be skeptical of this use. With softer metals I think this tool would leave marks on the material. The wheels have an edge similar to the outside of a quarter, meaning lines perpendicular to the orientation of the material being fed through, this is to help grip the material to force it through. Sounds like you need more of a small sheet metal roller.

I would suggest using a coping saw, they are designed to cut intricate shapes from wood.

No it will not cut through felt. Its not sharp enough to cut through the fibrous of the felt. It may cut a little, but you definitely not get a good clean cut. I am afraid that it may dull the hole puncher if you use it on other fabrics that's not leather.

The blades are pretty sharp, and I am able to cut 2-3 pieces of card stock at once. I'm guessing it should cut felt with no problem.

Perhaps. You would have to use some kind of saw to do so. But it's not too thick to cut.

I just tried it with both felt and cotton fabrics. A single layer punches ok, but fabric and felt were both 'pulled' into hole and punched hole had to be finished with scissors.. Double layers of both cut fine and were stiff enough to cut hole all the way through without having to trim with scissors. Triple layer of cotton punched fine; but felt was too thick.

Yes. Should be ok for the pre-fabricated shapes. I pressed several pieces into my finger and could not cut myself. Hope this helps. What a neat idea for a pond.

I have used them for cutting three layers of denim. They would certainly cut through two layers of felt. I do not think they would easily cut through more.
