will it cut 1/2 rebar?

I was able to cut 1/2" rebar by placing the rebar in the jaws, laying one end of bolt cutter on the ground, and bouncing with my 170 lb weight repeatedly for 5-10 minutes. My son, who was in strongman competitions, was unable to pull the jaws closed on the 1/2" rebar. So I'd say the answer is Yes, if you're sufficiently motivated.

Yes. I did it easily. Just use a hack saw to cut the bar down yo the length you want.

I do not know. However, look online at the end of the Wave (where the nose of the file rests, that side) and you will see a gap near the hinge, where this clip fits and locks in. If your Rebar has such a gap, you might be in luck. If not, probably not.

I have used this to cut 11 gauge 4 inch square tubing and 1 inch rebar. You just need to go slow and let the wheel do the cutting.

Yes, if you use the cutter without the plastic guides. There are two guides that come with the unit. The closer one cuts to about 1/4 inch. The other cuts longer, but I haven't used it, so can't say how long that would be.

Yes. Just enough depth of cut to handle 2" (really 1 1/2 inch) stock. This is not a powerful saw but it is extremely convenient. You won't frame a house with it but I use it frequently. It's my tool of choice for cutting 4'x8' sheet stock into manageable size pieces.

I don't see why not. The bar is a pre-measured length (18", 24" etc.). It just slips into the end caps. With a good hack-saw, there is no reason to think that you would not be able to trim the bar to a smaller length.

The maximum cutting depth of this saw is 3/4". It would not be able to cut a 2x2.

As I understand it, your question is really how deep a cut can it make?The answer is a little over 1 and a half inches, so the answer is no.I would try to get someone with a table saw or check with Home Depot or Lowes and see if they will do it.

yes it will, if you cut the boards twice. I use this saw to cut 5/4" by 6" decking into thinner planks for some trim things on jobsites. You will have to go slow and make sure you keep the material straight and plumb. Only other tools I own that i could make a cut like that with are band saw (stuck at a shop) or planer (take forever and make too much dust). Maybe not what this saw was intended for but it works great. Get a sharp good blade and you it will work no problem.

I would have to say No. The Kabar blade for which it was made is 1 3/16" wide & 3/16" thick. It's a perfect fit. No wiggle room.

Yes. I had to trim 1/4" off of mine to make it fit. It's best if you have a jig saw for a clean cut, but I think you could manage with a pair of heavy duty scissors even.

Nope, max trimming is 2 inches, any more will destroy the lever that retracts the seal.

I'm sure it could. I've cut through 2 x 4 stock (which is 1 1/2" thick) many years ago with a very muchlower powered and lighter weight jig saw. Just go slowly, use a sharp blade, and let the saw do the workwithout forcing the cut.

I'm not sure, based on my experience cutting thin wall steel tubing, cutting 1/2" SS will be very slow.

I do not know the specs on the bar, but I use the chain on two saws from different manufacturers-----so I suspect that it will work.

No. It's intended to be used for straight cuts. You could probably clamp it down and make it work but there are better tools for that.
