AJ, done with weekday classes, plays courier on a stressful Subtract type II titanium anodizing job, then covers first heat-treat tests, BAM 2.0 CAM he vibe-coded for the Wazer, used Renishaw probes to replace a dying Pioneer system, and a custom Android launcher for Bob. In the Q&A, they advise Trevor on commissioning ball bars and a TRT 210 trunnion, trade shop fluids with Patrick, and warn Max off a Harbor Freight concrete-mixer tumbler.-----Check out the hosts on Instagram:https://instagram.com/audacity_microhttps://instagram.com/precisioningenuity

AJ juggles teaching with a stressful split Subtract anodizing job, explains how quoting 3.0 now tunes against 6,000 price points, and shares Multiply's first 109 parts, his calibrated microscope, a Tormach sensor fix, and plans to heat treat tiny A2 watch winder parts. In the Q&A, they cover Jamie's Freddy giveaway, validation parts for Trevor's new VF3SSYT, and whether Zackeree should get a Saunders plate or a zero point for his Fadal.-----Check out the hosts on Instagram:https://instagram.com/audacity_microhttps://instagram.com/precisioningenuity

In the 181st episode of Taps and Patience, hosts AJ and Harrison kick things off with Multiply Manufacturing, AJ's new 3D printing extension of Subtract, then catch up on AJ's week of deliveries: the Wazer water jet is installed (and has already cost him a camera lens), a heat treat oven and measuring microscope arrived, and his Tormach went down with a bad tool changer sensor. Harrison shares a reground drill that broke and kept cutting hardened steel, his move to Schunk hydraulic tool holders, the Haas VF4 now being built for him, and a tax PSA about depreciating machines too fast. In the Q&A, they cover helping struggling shop owners, plans for machine breakdowns, Subtract bulk buying, Haas installs, justifying a new 3D printer, and a possible Patreon project.
