It can cleanly cut through almost any flat material, including all kinds of metal, wood, glass, tile, marble, granite and more. It will cut the thinnest sheet metal as well as materials up to a foot thick. It creates no heat, so materials like stainless steel, glass and stone that are usually damaged by heat are unaffected by waterjet cutting.The only common material it won't cut is tempered glass, although it works well on regular glass. Passing this class is a requirement to use this equipment at TechShop
