Ep. 47: Probe It Till It Works

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.Links Discussed: Michael Reeves gaslighting ai: https://youtube.com/shorts/WP5_XJY_P0Q?si=IUFpwV_guSkmgj3r   electronic lead screw: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005009697369216.html       The Lone Machinist: Website: https://thelonemachinists.com/ Bonus Content: https://thelonemachinists.com/#bonus-content Merch: https://www.jspeceng.com/online-store Patreon: https://patreon.com/TheLoneMachinistsNeed Work Done?
