Ep. 47: Probe It Till It Works
Description
Join Curt and Jamie as they dive into a week of machining mayhem, including the saga of the impossible tool stick-out, eight-sided geometry gymnastics, and a near-miss crash that proves physics always wins.
They also get into probe repeatability experiments, neighbor-induced noise paranoia, hand-crafted chamfers, and the eternal battle between fancy 3D toolpaths and good old common sense.
It’s another episode of chatter, chaos, and questionable overhangs — held together by coffee, carbide, and pure stubbornness.
