    Aloha Zach, I am happy you enjoy and have been productive with Model
    Master products. Yes, we are always improving and upgrading our
    hardware and software, based on the requests and needs of our
    customers. The statement you refer to was in regard to Ferrous
    metals such as Iron, Steel and Stainless Steel, though we do have
    machines that can do that as well. The biggest issue is wear on the
    screws, you could do it, but would be replacing screws in short
    order. The other is productivity, it is faster to mill an EDM
    electrode, in graphite or copper and burn it or output out of ArtCAM
    to a 3D Laser to cut it. I cut T6 aluminum, gold, and other
    nonferrous metals with no difficulty, nor strain on the machine.
    Just to let you know and clear up any misconceptions. 

Best Regards,
Christian
