    Within Tolerance Episode 270 - Wait, You Take Breaks? With Zap

    We catch up on a busy stretch: Zap’s UK stint, dialing in systems, and turning chaos into consistency—including saying no when it counts. Dylan locks the shop layout, keeps the S700, preps for the Hermle HSFlex and hyperMill, and shares a few hard-won long-cycle lessons.
