From Toolpaths to Turntables | Lean Built - Manufacturing Freedom E113
About this episode
This episode of the Lean Built Podcast starts in the shop but ends up on stage. Andrew and Jay begin by discussing machining decisions—when to model details in CAD versus when to let CAM and shop standards handle them, edge breaks, chamfers, and the balance between aesthetics and efficiency.
But midway, the conversation takes a turn into music...concert stories, 90s Christian rock, ska bands, artistry, and musical creativity. Along the way, they draw parallels between toolpath textures and vinyl warmth, and talk about some of the influences that formed them into the men they would become.
