Episode description

This week, Justin Gray shares exciting updates about Toolpath Labs' new tool recommendation engine and their partnership with Kennametal, while Zap details his frustrating shop power saga and van towing misadventures. We explore the concept of "technical debt" in both software and machine shops, discuss whether location matters when starting a machine business, and debate the merits of various CAM systems. The conversation covers everything from managing customer-supplied materials and appropriate scrap rates to essential non-machining tools for the shop, with each of us offering practical CAM, metrology, and business tips from our experiences.
