  • I was excited to tune in

    If it’s going to continue to be just a sales pitch, I have no reason to listen. As the owner/user of a shopsabre, I’d love to hear more about using the machine and controller, troubleshooting, tips, and real world advice.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Fail Forward: Turn Setbacks Into CNC Success | Ep 240
Q: How should a company balance cost versus advanced features or on-site services?
The discussion centers on prioritizing core reliability and performance over chasing every high-end feature; value should be found in dependable service, long-term supports, and the overall cost of ownership rather than just initial price.
Fail Forward: Turn Setbacks Into CNC Success | Ep 240
Q: Why do some machines require on-site training while others do not?
The hosts argue that on-site training depends on product build quality and the reliability of the in-house team; higher quality builds and better support reduce the need for immediate on-site intervention, though options remain for customers who want hands-on setup.
Fail Forward: Turn Setbacks Into CNC Success | Ep 240
Q: What would you do differently if you already knew the outcome?
The answer suggests leaning into the learning from each setback and moving quickly, since the outcome is known to be positive; the emphasis is on not letting the fear or anticipation of failure slow progress.
USA-Made CNC: Quality & Support for Shop Growth | Ep 227
Q: Should I wait until 2026 to see the costs of your machines?
Waiting until 2026 will likely lead to disappointment as prices are expected to rise significantly after the year-end sales event.
USA-Made CNC: Quality & Support for Shop Growth | Ep 227
Q: Why would I choose financing with your company when I can just go to my bank?
Financing with us means your machine is the only collateral, offering you more financial freedom without tying up other assets.
