[QUOTE="BillM, post: 3979547, member: 45785"] I have two Unimats, and they can do steel. You just have to take very small cuts, with very sharp tools. Be patient! Which is hard for me, too. ;) Are you a member of the Unimat group at groups.io? If not, you should join, and see what can be done with a Unimat!
