Will the ZipSnip cut medium to thick carpet?

Yes I have used it to cut carpet. It was a thinner carpet so not sure about thicker carpet

Oh yes. I had marvelous luck with it. You just have to go not too or put too much pressure on it and it works great. I took all the carpet and pad in my downstairs out with it (600 square feet) and I was very pleased. You just have to practice to see what the right amount of pressure and speed is best to use it at. Practice is the key.

I never did, but it probably will if you go slow. I would cut it on the back. Good luck.

No !!! Is a little bit more wider so you have to cut a 1/4 inch from side to side!!!

Yes, it will, but first, you need to slice them, about a quarter of an inch thick.

It will cut hard wood up to a certain thickness. Probably not good for this model, but there are better models that open up to accommodate a thicker plank. See the Youtube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5Cs9Hi0Nxo

Yes it will! Just follow the directions...there should be no cutting on any JK

This tool will use the same saw bits as the Roto-Zip which will cut various materials. It uses an 1/8", and with the adapter, 1/4" bits. as long as the bit would fit the chuck, it should work.

I believe it will work for marine carpet as long as the carpet is thin enough that the two pieces of the snap that you are using the tool to crimp together, are long enough to go through the carpet. They come in two different lengths. The tool has great leverage. That won't be the problem. I made a boat cover out of Sunbrella material and used the tool to install all of the snaps. The tool doesn't have a long depth to the throat of it, so snaps can only be set in from the side an inch or less. You will need to punch a pilot hole with something.

Yes. A sharp carpet knife will work for cutting the cord cover to fit the space.

Max thickness is about an inch and a half. I purchased mine to cut pinewood derby cars for our scout troop if that helps.

I would say definitely yes. I used one to cut about 1,200sq ft of laminate flooring which is much denser than pressure treat.

I am not quite sure. My carpet is a relatively short pile and it lifts it up nicely. I suspect that it would work fine with a deeper pile due to the fact that the teeth on the groomer are approximately 1-1/2 inches long.

It is sharp enough and strong enough to cut ordinary carpet, but only for occasional use. It certainly isn'y for regular job-related use.

Depends on the type of material. It may, for example, cut 1" thick aluminum but definitely not 1" thick steel (mild or hard).

Yes. It is a tight fit, so your cut must be clean. I am using a cold chisel on a small anvil for a burrless cut and sort of twist the cable to get it started but then is slips through nicely.

Yes, it would be good for that. As you learn to use it, you'll find that regardless of the setting you choose, the thickness of the cut can vary as your pressure varies. Uniformity comes with practice. This is not a precision device.

Ben...Yes, this would be great for that. It's thin (not much pile to speak of), but tough, and cuts fairly well with sharp scissors. Be aware it has no backing, so you may have to use something to hold it down. Double sided carpet tape is what I used in my vehicle for this. I was pleased with it for my purposes, and I think it would work well for yours.

Yes, but my carpets are Berber. I don't know if it would work well on thicker pile carpets
