Episode notes

Zack Eakin, ex-Boring Company and Anduril veteran, just landed $42M to revolutionize composite manufacturing with Layup Parts—making carbon fiber and fiberglass parts as easy to order as Amazon, slashing production from weeks to hours. With two decades in motorsports and defense, Eakin spotted a massive gap: traditional composites still rely on manual processes while other industries went digital. He’s betting that with the right software and material science, custom parts could become a zero-click experience. Backed by top defense-focused VCs including Marlinspike, Cerberus Ventures, and Founders Fund, Layup Parts is poised to scale its team and facility this year, bringing high-performance manufacturing into the modern age.
