Zoom in far enough and you’ll realize eyeballs are nightmare fuel.

S04:E41
This week’s episode drifts through the realities of year-end laser work — juggling ornament season, balancing what your time is worth, and knowing when to say no. The guys catch up on the November Coin Challenge, talk through design quirks like eyeballs and portal concepts, and debate community expectations versus personal bandwidth. Things shift into industry news as they unpack the Glowforge situation, the risks of cloud-locked machines, and how consumer tolerance has changed now that the market is crowded with alternatives. Mixed in are jokes, tech speculation, and some honest shop-talk about evolving the podcast format for Season 5.
