Zap joins me this week to kick off the first in-person episode of 2025. We dive into Zap's recent travels and adventures, including a trip to another country, getting a head tattoo, and dealing with various machining and business challenges. We discuss the nuances of tool libraries, the importance of five-axis machining, and the comparative merits of OEM versus third-party automation solutions. We also touch on personal growth goals, balancing work and life, and the latest purchases that have made a difference in our workflows. Additionally, we share our experience with CAM software, the benefits of new shop equipment, and planning for a more stable and efficient year ahead.
