This week on The Loan Machinist Podcast, Jamie and Curt battle the literal "Demon" of Tolerance Stack-Up, because apparently, adding up a bunch of "tents" actually equals one giant headache

Curt scores a $600 lens for sixty bucks and plays a high-stakes game of "Did I just buy a paperweight?" while Jamie contemplates becoming a full-time electrician because Fusion 360’s latest update is officially "unusable"

We also dive into the oily world of vacuum workholding, where if you aren't pulling enough mercury, you’re just turning your shop into an unintentional oil mist sauna

Plus, Samo the Marmo presses 10,000 rivets by hand, Jamie breaks his resin printer for a Deadpool bust, and we definitely (mostly) don’t talk about Project Hail Mary

Grab your calipers and your patience; it’s just you, the work, and the machines.
