Can this be used to impress thin copper sheets?

Yes, I have cut copper roof flashing with it. In order for it to cut metal you only use the thick dies. It won't' work on the sizzlits. Use the Vintaj embossing folders made for embossing metal for the best results.

Yes. I used it to stuff in around wires in conduit to keep mice from getting into the junction box. I had used steel wool but the damp area caused it to rust out. The copper will solve this problem and you should work for you too.

Yes. Unless it's aluminum foil, I'd recommend a Dremel tool. If you're trying to score a piece of aluminum, this would work (briefly) but you'd be better off with a utility knife/box cutter.

I would not use for that purpose! Look on a can of Magnetic/Chalkboard Paint for the brand of extra-strong magnets recommended by the magnetic paint company.

If the metal shanks are relatively small and are made from a soft metal like copper, brass, or aluminum, I believe these will work. We use these for video installation work for flush cutting plastic wire ties and for electronic circuit board repair and manufacturing. These cut up to 18 to 20 gage copper without any damage to the cutting surfaces.

This isn't the tool for that job. It's designed for sheet metal. You'll need a proper thread-making tap (Not a rethreading tap.)

I have only used on sheet metal and no more than 1/4 " works great. 1/2 would probably wear at batteries pretty quick and progress would be slow.

I believe they are asking the user to use these on sheet metal and flat banding. Do not use these as wire cutters. If you're cutting flat, not round material all should be well.

I think so but I am not sure. Try a little on a test piece , set it out in the weather for a few days / weeks depending on the urgency of your project and see what happens. It wouldn't take a lot of material to do the test. The test piece should only be about one square inch.

I have used Trewax for years on all kinds of wood items. I have never tried it on copper so I really do not know how it would react. Perhaps you might try it on a small, relatively unimportant item and see what happens. If it does work, it would be nice if you add your experience to Amazon so others would also know. Good luck.

No, this mold is made of aluminum, so the temperatures required to melt copper is much higher than what this mold can handle. I suggest an iron mold for what you want.

I purchased it for use on aluminum,...but it probably could be used on very thin wood products. I suggest that you contact the manufacturer for their recommendation.

I suppose you could use this for bending flat wire for jewelry but it's not really made for small intricate work. Say for example you want to make a small ring or circle; the smallest this item will do is approximately 3 inches. Also, the rollers are knurled so it will leave marks on your metal which would need sanding and polishing.

A thin gauge could do the trick. It drills rather well, so you could put a hole in each corner of a sheet and screw it in. Definitely a possibility.

Yes, you can. This is pretty much what the tool was designed to do. I think I was hoping I could work with thinner material.

I found using these on mild steel they would break when applying any pressure at all!! I would think they would be better for the softer metals!! Remember to clear your chips when drilling copper!! Also use some lube!! I learned this 50 years ago drilling copper!!! Poor quality!!

Not sure, have just used it on copper. Would be afraid it might hurt silver.
