Can this machine be used to cut felt shapes??

Yes, just put a piece of paper over the felt, place the die on top of that and roll it through!

doubtful - its slotted at each end - you'd have to cut a curved rectangle as well

I don't know about that. You'd likely have to contact Roland. They do mention not using felt beaters though. I made the mistake once and it marked it up almost instantly and looked like it could do damage fast. I get the feeling the felt beaters "grab" the pad material and pull it apart.

I haven't tried felt. Honestly it doesn't cut through thicker papers too well, so probably won't work with felt.

The felt insert sits inside a rigid lucite form. I guess it would be possible to remove the felt piece and cut it. However, the beauty of these items is their stackability. I love being able to move two layers of these units within the drawer. I used two sizes to get the units to cover most of the drawer.

No I don't think so. I have not tried it of course but I'm confident it's not sharp enough for that kind of cutting. Thick paper is fine.

I would not recommend this tool for the job....not enough power. Blade has a back on it so the angle of the cut would be too shallow. Use a skillsaw or table saw or band saw with infeed/outfeed table or rollers.

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

Yes. I've used it as a source of polyurethane foam for craft projects-- cuts well with electric carving knife or a utility blade. Any creases or crush marks come out well when sprayed lightly with water and steamed carefully with a warm iron.

It is possible but it would take a great deal of force as felt is very shock absorbent. We are currently cutting through standard gasket material which are about a 16th of an inch thick but we are also using it on 1/4 cork gasket material. These materials cut very well but the thicker you go the more difficult it will be.

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. You need the correct gauge that will attach to this cutter. That can be found here:

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'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!

I haven't tried felt, but it is supposed to. I have heard others using die cuts for felt and other material.

Yes, if there are a few small pieces I generally place all of them together, laminate and then cut themto the shapes. Else you can cut to your preferred size ans is done well.

Yes, you can use any of those tools, but you may find that the light sabre will warp the edges. What I use id a rotary cutter.see http://www.leevalley.com/en/wood/page.aspx?p=41729&cat;=1,250,43298,43314
