Have you guys seen this thing before?

I wouldn't expect much from them, but would like to get my hands on some of the parts, like that chuck. Or maybe when it's been around longer and if it gets good reviews I might pick one up. I could make some stuff with something like that.

It's a knockoff of a product made by Union, never heard of them. Anyway, it's around $300 for the Union, probably $180 by the time you add shipping from hobby king.

Says it will do soft metals like aluminum, but I was doubting it.
