On Manufacturing (top)

Things that would have taken days to carve by hand are now done in a few hours and are PERFECT! We carve pave rings and pendants so that the stones almost snap into place and there is little bright cutting to do.
Thanks again, the ModelMaster is great!

ModelMaster has helped produce models that were virtually impossible to make and in half the time. The quality and accuracy of this tool is well beyond the expected.

Our company has been rewarded for the purchase of this system. Our model production has increased three times what we were doing before. In addition, the quality has improved as well.

ModelMaster has allowed me to design a piece and offer it in a multitude of sizes by simply scaling and duplicating my work. I also found I could keep the same border and simply design a new center within the existing diameters giving me an entirely new look.

The scaling and duplicating feature of the ModelMaster system is an incredible time savings. In the past, it has taken me a year or two to complete a new line. With ModelMaster, I designed a new line within a couple of months.

I have found this system to be the most powerful tool a jeweler could have. We are able to create pieces for mass production that would have been impossible to do by hand. Others that would have taken me at least a few days to carve by hand, with the machine in only a few minutes to around an hour for most jobs. Creating a duplicate of an old piece is a snap, right and left sides are a breeze.
Jeff D. Blower
Goldsmith Gemologist

We are able to create and complete designs in time periods unconceivable through the old methods of model creation. ANd we can create in ways that were simply not possible before: opposites and size changes virtually at the click of a button, modifcations that can easily be incorporated into developing designs at almost no cost, unlimited ability to reproduce master models. These are but a few of the advantages obtained through the use of this system.

The accuracy in which this machine works is incomparable to any other machine of this caliber. Our turn around on our line has increased tenfold.

ModelMaster's Art to Part system has increased my model production and has helped me make models I could not have made before.

Since we purchased the system, we've created many exciting pieces of jewelry that wouldn't have been feasible to create by hand. We've also had customers create designs on their computer and give them to us to manufacture with our system It's a powerful and amazing system. We absolutely love it!

A man came into the store looking for a charm of Arkansas (WHy would a store in Neveda carry a charm of Arkansas?) He and his wife were moving there the next week and she is an avid charm collector. I was able to create the state, personalize the charm with the name of the city they were moving to, and have the job ready on Monday!!! The customer was speechless.

I was a bench jeweler for 27 years but had to discontinue bench work due to health reasons. The system has not only allowed me to continue to stay in the jewelry profession, it has allowed me to focus on what I enjoy most; the design and creation of custom jewelry, but with much greater precision and quality than any jeweler could possibly do with their hands.

On Profitability (top)

In less than two months, the system has generated revenue equal to 26% of the purchase price of the system, and I can easily see where it this system will pay for itself in less than 12 months.

Even though retail sales slowed down after September 11, my custom CAD/CAM business is stronger than ever. Actually I am getting more and more repeat business mainly from other other jewelry stores that know that this technology is the best route for their customer. Satisfied customers equals sales. Bottom line this system makes me money!
Berry's Jewelry
Nashville, TN

ModelMaster has paid for itself in the first year. WE recieved one job for 800 pieces. Since delivering the initial 800 pieces, the company has ordered 230 more...

We have not promoted the ModelMaster system in any local ad campaigns. So if we can have this program pay for itself with no advertising, imagine what we could do with some marketing. I can't say enough about ModelMaster.
David Lorenz

Were it not for the introduction of CAD/CAM technology into our design and production, our ability to respond to the demands of today's market would be seriously handicapped. I would estimate that 90 % of our design is accomplished with the aid of the ModelMaster system...

I have but one concern with recommending ModelMaster. The system is so crucial to our growth that I dread others in our industry getting their hands on it. One shouldn't make a habit of giving away trade secrets. However in this case I will make an exception.

The ModelMaster System has proved to be an asset to my craft. The time savings alone have made my system well worth the money. AS you know, I ordered my second system only a couple months after working with my first.

This machine has brought us so much satisfaction, that we recently purchased a second one and a rotary table too.

On Customer Support (top)

Even though I have not had much problems with my machine and software, it seems that whenever I had a simple question or problem, you all were there to help.
When purchasing a product such as the ArtCAM system, it is important to have reliable and knowledgeable information at hand when you need it. Through the past three years of dealing with all of you, I have never been disappointed.
Thanks again for all your help and support.

I just wanted you to know how much I appreciate you and the rest of the staff at ModelMaster. I use my modelMaster mill every day amd it has paid for itself many times over. The service and support is incredible. You have always been excellent at answering any questions or working out any problems I had.

I am very happy with the machine, and it has been nothing but a pleasure to deal with the members of your staff. They have helped me through the technical support I would from time to time require when reinstalling software on a new system or how to make the machine perform some specific task that I might have forgotten, or did not have experience with yet.
I thank you for your help, your support, and look forward to getting a second machine for the new shop I am outfitting.
Jeff D. Blower
Goldsmith/GEmologist

Every time I have called for your advice, your help has been knowledgeableand infused with your characteristic enthusiasm. I look forward to these discussions not just as a client, but as a fellow pioneer, excited about the ever expanding possibilities that this tool has opened up.

ArtCAM is an easy to use program, and with each new release increases in it's capabilities. I am very happy with the machine, software, and support. After using it for a year, I highly recommend ModelMaster's CNC system.
Richard D. Hamilton

Our business has purchased several software programs in the last ten years and has seen a wide range of "customer support". Your technical support is outstanding.

The quality of the system, the technical support department, and the training programs for the system are, in my opinion, beyond reproach.

The training sessions are well thought out, comprehensive, and flexible. I was able to make the mill pay for itself quickly.

Thank you for your kind tutor in Bankok. Our designers told me that they have learned a lot from just two days, and some of the techniques they learned they could not have learned on their own. Too bad the time you could stay in Thailand was too short!

From the day we began our training, I never doubted the viability of your system. Your knowledge and experience were apparent. And I can't emphasise this enough; your determination to transfer that knowledge guaranteed its success.

The first day after my training, I made my first sale with ModelMaster!
David Lorenz

Originally I purchased a different CNC machine... the three day training I recieved from this company left me totally confused. The machine sat for months with no molds being cut.
Then I met Mike and Ces at the Atlanta Jewelry Show and they immediately started showing me more productive ways to use ArtCAM with short-cuts and techniques that allowed me to go back to the shop and start cutting models...
Now I have two ModelMaster CNC machines and I am able to produce several models a day.
