Ep. 69: Insert Innuendo Here

About this episode

In Episode 69, the hosts discuss their chaotic experiences with sticker equipment, outdoor bachelor parties, and CNC projects.

In this absolutely respectable and definitely clean Episode 69 of the Lone Machinist Podcast… things go off the rails in under 2 minutes. We kick things off with Curt accidentally spending what could've been a small mortgage payment on sticker equipment, because apparently "I can make my own stickers" is a perfectly valid financial strategy. Meanwhile, Jamie goes full outdoorsman, hosting a bachelor party that involves mud drifting, bass fishing domination, and aggressively avoiding anything resembling a normal bachelor party. Somewhere in between: * A vinyl cutter that definitely didn't fall off a truck (probably) * A fishing trip that cured burnout better than therapy * CNC projects that make you question your life choices * A Masso retrofit that somehow actually worked * And just enough questionable jokes to remind you… yeah, this is Episode 69 Also, we tried to keep it civil. We did not succeed. If you like machining, bad decisions, and the kind of conversations that start technical and end with "how did we get here?", you're in the right place. Come for the CNC talk Stay for the chaos Leave wondering why anyone owns this many stickers Links Discussed: * Xteink X4…
