Zap, Justin Gray, and I trade wins, war stories, and hard lessons. Justin breaks down Toolpath’s CAM automation progress—constraints, search space control, and getting from “seven ops” to the three you actually want—plus new work on undercuts and 3+2. Zap brings DMG mill‑turn tales, a 1.5× tool life bump, and the hidden cost of tool library drift. I talk CMM headaches and adding a newer manual machine. Then rapid‑fire Q&A: VF‑2 vs. higher‑end 30×16 choices, our aluminum rougher, Blum Z‑nano supremacy, zero-point with no probe, wear comp best practices, zero‑point/G10 for legacy setups, and real ways to recruit students (FIRST and desktop CNC done right). Stick around for a Mastercam RAM allocation fix, a Fusion post warning, Freddy bee‑duty, and why one‑piece flow still wins.
