Just bought a new to me MP4500FS Ironworker. Entry level for sure, even plugs into 110. Super psyched about it.
The machine clearly states "rated for mild steel only". Does anyone have any experience shearing or punching aluminum with one? Hate to dull my shear assuming that aluminum is fine to process with it. I use different alloys of aluminum.
Curious about SS too but feeling much more cautious about that.
Thanks for any ideas!
