Mike DoolinGUEST
And I didn't screw any tops up.
Mike DoolinGUEST
You know, it wasn't until I got a CNC that I started screwing tops up.
Mike DoolinGUEST
And then you can screw them up fast.
Mike DoolinGUEST
Really fast and really bad.
13 MINS LATER
Mike DoolinGUEST
very encouraging about that.
Mike DoolinGUEST
He's always looking for submissions.
Mike DoolinGUEST
Yeah, probably the last really major article that I wrote for them was about carving archtop plates on a CNC.
Mike DoolinGUEST
And that one, the crux of it was how to get around learning 3D CAD.
Kyle DalyPANELIST
And it's perfect.
Kyle DalyPANELIST
But a lot of these machine shops now from some of the people that were messaging are getting rid of these machines, these tapping heads pretty cheap because they just don't use them anymore because most all the tapping is done right in the CNC machine with the rigid tapping programs and stuff.
Kyle DalyPANELIST
Yeah.
Kyle DalyPANELIST
You know, you should
David GrayleyGUEST
So that might be an operative, somebody working online or a particular technology.
David GrayleyGUEST
Our core offer is a level three, which means a technician level qualification, which will give people access to skills, not only things like hand fitting, but PLCs, robotics, CNC work as well, the relevant mathematics that are required around that and a whole range of skills that they need to apply that in the workplace.
David GrayleyGUEST
Our upskilling courses and reskilling courses tend to be shorter and much more focused on a single particular area.
David GrayleyGUEST
So we do things like additive.
Kit FranklinHOST
Have you got any appetite or have you looked at anything like sort of robotic welding rigs or sort of automating processes? Is that something that you're considering in terms of growth? Yeah, I mean, one of our massive investments is
Chris GordonGUEST
perhaps not... automation in the sense that you're talking about, but we've gone from a manual lathe to a CNC lathe.
Chris GordonGUEST
And that has made a massive difference on two week jobs now done in two days.
Chris GordonGUEST
And we'll see that when we go down to the factory.
Brandon BombardoHOST
Welcome back to Talking Shop with ShopSaver.
Brandon BombardoHOST
In this podcast, we like to tackle the CNC industry specifically and really talk a little bit about business in general.
Brandon BombardoHOST
Hopefully, you'll find some entertainment throughout it and hopefully some education.
Brandon BombardoHOST
But the next episode starts right now.
9 MINS LATER
Brandon BombardoHOST
So I just think that you would need more of both of those to be able to tackle an industry at the same level that our existing products do.
Brandon BombardoHOST
Because the reality is an edge bander is no less production, no less support, no less training.
Brandon BombardoHOST
It's no less of... demand than what a CNC machine is.
Brandon BombardoHOST
So I think we've just been fortunate enough to partner with some great companies over the years that specialize in that area.
Jacob EdmondHOST
What kind of tools and equipment do you have in
Santiago SolisGUEST
there? So we have from the most manual and rudimentary tools that we can have to what the ones that are like the CNC.
Santiago SolisGUEST
Of course, we have everything you need to work with wood, some stuff that is to work with steel, but also we have another lab that works with steel also, or metal, but we have a little amount of machinery that works for this, actually.
Santiago SolisGUEST
And then we maybe have... all the manual stuff.
Santiago SolisGUEST
And also we have the 3D printing, the laser cut, the CNC equipment for kind of a professional painting, you can say.
Jacob EdmondHOST
Okay.
Jacob EdmondHOST
And so you mentioned that a lot of times it's the engineers or the industrial design students that use it.
12 MINS LATER
Jacob EdmondHOST
How do we work through when something goes wrong? That's really where the lesson is.
Tommaso CostaGUEST
The first stage is the cut.
Tommaso CostaGUEST
We used a specific machine called the CNC machine.
Tommaso CostaGUEST
This is computer numeric control cut.
Tommaso CostaGUEST
And we need a special worker to put the panel inside the machine and start the program.
Francesca ChiorandoHOST
The CNC machine takes the design and cuts the panel to exact specifications.
Francesca ChiorandoHOST
To make sure they're getting it right, they assemble the whole interior of the boat, the walls, the fixtures, the fittings, everything before it's installed inside the hull.
Francesca ChiorandoHOST
So the client can see exactly how the inside of their boat will look before it's anywhere near the water.
Nathan TowleGUEST
That is going to require authorization.
Nathan TowleGUEST
Things like our CNC router carving tools, the laser cutters, which we're very excited about.
Nathan TowleGUEST
That's been something that we've wanted in Makerspace for a very long time.
Nathan TowleGUEST
Those are the sorts of things that are going to require authorization initially.
Leland LicciardiGUEST
So I'm the president.
Leland LicciardiGUEST
Kirsten is our VP of operations and we are a precision CNC machining manufacturer.
Leland LicciardiGUEST
So we specialize in Swiss and CNC lathe works, a lot of turning, as well as some milling for secondary operations kind of, but some only milling.
Leland LicciardiGUEST
But primarily we're a Swiss
Frank CottleHOST
strength of the person within the organization not enhancing them not augmenting them so they can produce more they're trying to save their selves or save their way to success rather than produce their way to success do you think that that is within large companies is too overwhelming a uh a position i mean everybody in manufacturing uh let's take the automotive industry oh yeah robots robots are going to be.
Frank CottleHOST
And I, I know a lathe operators in machining are one of those robotic machines, you know, CNC machines, et cetera.
Frank CottleHOST
You have people working remotely now running four or five machines, right? But somebody is still running those machines and you say, well, I got rid of five at lathe operators.
Frank CottleHOST
Yes, but you got a highly skilled individual, blah, blah, blah.
