## Summary

Hosts Elliot Williams and Jenny List discuss a variety of hardware hacks, including Joshua Bird's non-planar 3D printing slicer for a custom core-XY printer, Ronald's high-fidelity DIY record cutting lathe built on a Technics SL-1200, and Laserborg's 360-degree LIDAR scanner using an RPLidar and Raspberry Pi. They also cover Eric Janet's Evertop cyberdeck running a PC emulator on an ESP32, Brian Minick's fully 3D-printable 3D printer, and Vic Oliver's micron-resolution 3D printer. The episode concludes with commentary on Maya Posch's article regarding physical media and Dan Maloney's history of X-ray detection technology.
