The One Where They Go Metal | Off The Cut Podcast Episode 238

Deric took the week off, leaving Zac and Eric to hold down the fort. We're diving deep into Zac's newest obsession: desktop CNC milling. He's been trying to mill a custom copper water-cooling block for a PlayStation 5 mod and snapping plenty of bits along the way. We discuss the unique challenges of cutting metals like copper, the fluid dynamics of turbulent flow for better cooling, and the steep learning curve of finding the right feeds and speeds using budget bits off Amazon. We also share our skeptical excitement over Bambu Lab's newly announced 3D scanner. We vent about the headaches of cleaning up 3D scan meshes in Fusion 360, the nightmares of scanning shiny surfaces, we even debate old-school police radar jammers versus hanging a CD from your rearview mirror. Finally, we take a brief detour into a rumored AI-generated Adobe software clone.
