Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

PFG.Live 2025-0907: Aperiodic Non-Chiral Monotile Lap Grooves
Q: Do you use Maple in your work?
The guest explained that Maple is a symbolic mathematics package, but he does not personally use it regularly and tends to write code from scratch.
PFG.Live 2026-0208: Snowpocolypse - Survived
Q: So you recently got an order for some parts made from Inconel and other nickel alloys; could you explain the material and its typical use cases?
Dale explains Inconel (Alloy 600) as a nickel-based alloy designed for corrosion resistance at very high temperatures, used in heat exchangers and reactor tubes where selective corrosion resistance and strength are critical; parts are often plugged off to extend service life without full retubing of boilers, balancing efficiency and maintenance.
PFG.Live 2026-0503: SLA Resin Washing - Why IPA?
Q: Carl, would you describe yourself as a retired industrial chemist?
Yes, I've synthesized acrylate polymers and helped select solvents, though I don't have specific background with 3D printing resins; I do have broad chemical expertise that helps evaluate solvent choices.
