Kids need tablesaws too, right? This one uses a sheet metal nibbler so it's completely safe, even a toddler-sized pinkie finger won't fit into the moving cutterhead.
Full credit to this cool instructable - I was going to use an oscillating multitool until I stumbled across this idea which is even safer:

To explain the theme - I have a lot of Dewalt stuff so I wanted my kids to feel like they had a real powertool, not some plastic kiddy toy. It cuts paper, thin wood, thinner cardboard (think Amazon boxes, not Target or diaper boxes) and sheet metal. I haven't tried that last one because I don't want to scratch up my nice paint job.

I had an old 18v drill with a wobbly arbor so it was perfect for this project. The cutterhead is just a cheap sheet metal nibbler.

Now that's pretty cool. Heck, my local makerspace could use one of these, they'd be great for cutting many sheet goods!
Thanks! I might have used it myself once or twice when I didn't feel like cleaning up after the jigsaw...
