[01:39:34] <andypugh> No messing about with 10/32 UNF for you, I see.
[01:43:49] <skunkworks> no way!
[01:46:47] <toastydeath> nice
[01:47:29] <toastydeath> 4 axis or 3
[01:48:26] <andypugh> 3.75 I think, 3 + 0.5 + 0.25 :-)
[01:48:40] <skunkworks> 3.5 ish
[01:48:58] <toastydeath> 3+1
[01:49:00] <toastydeath> cool
[01:49:04] <toastydeath> i like that kind of machine
[01:49:22] <skunkworks> oh - I thought you meant the machine - it is 3 axis + and the table indexes. (5deg)
[01:49:46] <skunkworks> the rigid tapping is done with spindle sync. (encoder on the spindle gears the z axis)
[01:58:52] <skunkworks> faster....
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2E3PMooch1k
[02:00:58] <toastydeath> nice
[02:01:14] <toastydeath> that's pretty fast for that diameter cut tap, have you had any breakage problems
[02:01:27] <toastydeath> with chip weld
[02:02:12] <andypugh> Have you timed them? I am not sure if the actual cycle time is shorter with the added decel time.
[02:02:37] <skunkworks> heh - just playing around.... ;)
[02:03:14] <skunkworks> andypugh: May be - but we could also cut the tap distance a lot shorter.
[02:03:38] <skunkworks> at the faster rpm - play the deceleration! ;)
[02:03:54] <andypugh> True, once you know the decel time you might be able to use a negative hole depth :-)
[02:04:06] <skunkworks> toastydeath: this is the first time this machine has ever rigid tapped. ;)
[02:04:37] <skunkworks> andypugh: heh :p
[02:06:06] <toastydeath> nice, i was just curious about the tool life itself, 100-120 fpm is the usual speed for cut taps
[02:08:21] <skunkworks> toastydeath: a 1 inch diameter tap running at 400rpm is about 110 fpm according to our chart.
[02:08:39] <toastydeath> oh, i must have scarfed the math when i just calculated it
[02:09:56] <toastydeath> oh, you're totally right
[02:10:05] <skunkworks> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6S-QfmWcsI
[02:11:05] <skunkworks> toastydeath: so our 1952 slide rule fpm calculator is still right? ;)
[02:11:49] <toastydeath> haha totes

[14:02:02] <andypugh> <Rant! Fume!> Not content with simply re-posting the exact question when he didn't like the answer he got (after 5 pages of trying to help) a certain forum user has now taken to posting the same question as a private email to me!
[14:02:10] <jthornton> yes he does
[14:02:24] <jthornton> LOL
[14:03:18] <jthornton> andypugh: I just ignore those e-mails
[14:03:33] <psha> at first i tought that it's just case for mharberler's gladevcp userfuncs but now i'm really happy that i've not done that :)
[14:04:00] <andypugh> I can understand finding it difficult to get your head round stringing together as much stuff as we are, so finding it technically different is OK, but the way he keeps re-asking answered questions is odd.
[14:05:06] <jthornton> I wonder how hold he/she/it is?
[14:05:26] <jthornton> s/hold/old
[14:06:18] <andypugh> Well, I was just thinking that a GladeVCP button to just run a file would be a nice addition. The button -> hal-pin -> halui-command-pin -> custom G-code -> shell script -> file.py system is stupidly complex.
[14:06:40] <psha> andypugh: yea, that's why there is MDI action (just fill desired G-code) and userfuncs

[15:54:18] <JT-Shop> skunkworks: couldn't find a big tap to try out?
[15:54:48] <skunkworks> heh
[15:55:09] <JT-Shop> pcw_home: the more research I do on my little project the ssr you found is perfect!
[15:55:28] <elmo40> horizontal machine? nice. No spindle brake, though... not good for blind holes.
[15:56:35] <skunkworks> elmo40: horizontal - yes. no spindle brake - right.
[15:59:42] <elmo40> any way to implement a spindle brake?
[15:59:47] <elmo40> did they ever come with one?
[16:01:19] <skunkworks> the original machine didn't have a spindle brake - but the spindle was hydraulic and If I remember correctly - it stopped pretty quick when the spindle motor was stalled out.
[16:02:10] <skunkworks> there are a few things we could do - I could play with the vfd braking - but I think I had it to the point that it was on the edge of kicking out.
[16:03:36] <cradek> I tap slow - 350 or 400 is the max I ever use
[16:03:44] <pcw_home> skunkworks: that impressive (and kind of scary)
[16:04:50] <cradek> skunkworks: with your setup there it would be interesting to put an indicator on the plate, to see if the tap is pushing or pulling it on the retraction
[16:05:19] <skunkworks> cradek: easy to do. could make a video of it.
[16:05:40] <cradek> skunkworks: haha, only make a video if it doesn't move much :-)
[16:06:02] <skunkworks> (and we could tap slower - not like we are doing high production ;) et
[16:06:04] <skunkworks> yet
[16:06:09] <skunkworks> heh
[16:06:17] <cradek> if you traj & servo are 1ms or less, I bet it doesn't move much at all
[16:06:34] <skunkworks> yes - I think that is what it is set to
[16:07:08] <cradek> you sure do need more braking don't you! that fast one is a little nuts
[16:07:58] <skunkworks> yes - we have braking resistors on the vfd - but we may want to revisit the parameters and see if it could be tweeked
[16:08:29] <cradek> bbl
[16:08:47] <skunkworks> cradek: are you running master on jr?
[16:08:54] <skunkworks> never mind - ttyl
[16:08:55] <andypugh> Hmm, looks like the bldc component needs work, I broke reverse.
[16:09:07] <andypugh> I think that I am reversing twice, probably
[16:09:20] <skunkworks> oops

[16:21:49] <pcw_home> Ah nikos. got his BLDC motor running (though it did take reading the manual)
[16:24:35] <andypugh> desperate situations call for desperate measures
[16:25:58] <pcw_home> I suppose you could have a util that spins the motor 100 turns or so in stepper mode
[16:25:59] <pcw_home> to determine encoder factor Hall sequence etc (or read the manual)
[16:27:04] <andypugh> Perfectly possible as a standalone utility.
[16:27:35] <andypugh> But tricky, there are so many ways to do it.
[16:28:01] <andypugh> I will be writing up a process for manually working out motor parameters.
[16:28:35] <pcw_home> I did notice someone wrote a nice graphic tuning program
[16:28:49] <andypugh> For example, instead of swapping encoder scale, I think he could have swapped two motor leads

[16:38:14] <andypugh> Fame! No where's the fortune?
[16:39:15] <andypugh> I posted the hex boring to CNC zone and got one comment saying "it's not a very good fit to the allen key" and one saying "rotary broaching would be faster". I think they both rather missed the point.

[18:36:51] <Jymmm> maybe 0.100" hole in glass
[18:37:17] <awallin> we drill 1.6mm holes with ca 6-8krpm small drill and diamond coated bits
[18:37:20] <awallin> in microscope slides
[18:37:20] <andypugh> abrasive diamond bit
[18:37:35] <awallin> with water surrounding the bit and hole
[18:37:58] <andypugh> You can buy them for cutting holes in tiles.
[18:38:10] <awallin> the bits which are shaped like a cylinder (no middle part) work well
[18:38:13] <Jymmm> I have the ones for tile, but not THAT small
[18:38:34] <awallin> 1mm and 1.5mm were easy to get hold of over here

[18:49:59] <Jymmm> Yeah =)
[18:50:29] <andypugh> Get the next size down too, I think they tend to drill oversize
[18:50:47] <Jymmm> ah
[18:50:51] <Jymmm> good to know

[18:55:19] <lilalinux> Is it possible to have live plot also plot the tool's diameter?
[18:55:33] <andypugh> I think it does
[18:55:49] <andypugh> If the diameter is in the tool table
[18:55:54] <lilalinux> it is
[18:56:10] <lilalinux> it shows the tool with diameter, but not in the "history"
[18:56:18] <lilalinux> only at the current position
[18:56:18] <andypugh> That should switch the representation of the tool from a conical point to a scaled cylinder
[18:56:24] <lilalinux> yes
[18:56:29] <lilalinux> but it doesn't keep the traces
[18:56:32] <andypugh> Ah, No.
[18:56:50] <lilalinux> :-/
[18:57:26] <andypugh> I think it would tend to clutter the display somewhat.
[18:57:55] <lilalinux> in 3d yes

[19:09:34] <elmo40> our MAZAK machines have that. ;) for both simulation and actual tool cutting. the problem I have with their version is when I move the view it erases all that was cut and just does a continuation. very weird. as if it requires so much memory that they didn't want to cause problems.

[20:19:33] <SWPadnos_> they all have to authenticate to the device, and there's a royalty on the chip/code that does that
[20:19:36] <Jymmm> There are shitloads of those coming out of china, it must be those that liense the hardware connector/logo
[20:20:22] <SWPadnos_> it doesn't "just work" - you (the developer) have to go through some shenanigans
[20:20:55] <andypugh> I guess it depends on where the plug in. I doubt that devices that connect to the headphone jack do, and I think that the audio signals are available on the dock connector too.
[20:21:33] <Jymmm> another reason to fsck iWhatever
[20:21:40] <SWPadnos_> headphones no, dock connector devices probably yes - even chargers need to authenticate
[20:21:59] <SWPadnos_> jymmm: I agree wholeheartedly
[20:22:26] <Jymmm> ok, I'm outta here for a while

[20:27:15] <Roguish> andypugh: little help with 7i39 ?
[20:27:22] <andypugh> Go on...
[20:28:08] <andypugh> I am actually fiddling with one right now.
[20:29:20] <Roguish> in hall3 there are hall phase inputs. where (what) do they get connected to?
[20:30:45] <andypugh> Firstly: I am about to submit a new interface module called simply "bldc" which will allow a lot more (too much?) flexibility.
[20:31:34] <Roguish> also, on the 7i39 board, there are 2 inputs on the encoder connector: senseA and senseB. what are these???
[20:31:35] <andypugh> I assume your motor has Hall sensors and an encoder? And that the Hall sensors are wired to the 7i39?
[20:31:53] <Roguish> yes finally got a motor with both halls and encoder.
[20:32:03] <andypugh> Roguish: Current sensing, I think.
[20:32:17] <andypugh> Roguish: Have you been using bldc_sine?
[20:32:24] <Roguish> no
[20:32:29] <andypugh> OK.
[20:32:58] <andypugh> The new component will let you run motors which don't have Hall sensors.
[20:33:11] <Roguish> using 3pwmgen and encoder in hm2....
[20:33:32] <Roguish> all my motors have halls, not all have encoders.
[20:33:46] <andypugh> But, anyway, to answer the question: the Hall sensors connect to GPIO pins in HAL.
[20:35:01] <andypugh> The 7i39 manual shows which 7i39 pin the Hall outputs are on, but the pins into HAL don't have any special names, they are just GPIO. (but in between the special pins).
[20:35:28] <andypugh> net A bldc.0.A-value hm2_5i23.0.3pwmgen.00.A-value
[20:35:28] <andypugh> net B bldc.0.B-value hm2_5i23.0.3pwmgen.00.B-value
[20:35:28] <andypugh> net C bldc.0.C-value hm2_5i23.0.3pwmgen.00.C-value
[20:35:42] <andypugh> Sorry, wrong block of code.
[20:35:51] <andypugh> #net hall1 hm2_5i23.0.gpio.003.in => bldc.0.hall1
[20:35:52] <andypugh> #net hall2 hm2_5i23.0.gpio.004.in => bldc.0.hall2
[20:35:52] <andypugh> #net hall3 hm2_5i23.0.gpio.005.in => bldc.0.hall3
[20:36:01] <Roguish> oh, ok.
[20:36:03] <andypugh> (lose the #, obvously)
[20:37:45] <Roguish> ok. i finally got a .ini and .hal file that run (at least start axis). and wired up the motor to the 7i39. now i can straighten out some of the plumbing.

[20:48:20] <Connor> I asked this yesterday, but,I think everyone was out or something.. :)
[20:48:29] <Connor> Those of you who do wood routing with a CNC, and use a dust shoe... Does your dust shoe and vacuum souround the router exhaust port?
[20:48:29] <Connor> I'm re-designing my dust shoe.. and I can make sure the exhaust is deflected so that it doesn't get sucked up by the vacuum.

[21:12:52] <andypugh> Does a Google Images search give any clues?
[21:13:18] <Connor> I've seen all kinds of different things.
[21:15:02] <andypugh> I think it would depend on the vacuum air flow. It's obviously bad if the router exhaust raises the pressure in the shoe a bit, and disasterous if it raises it above ambient.
[21:15:32] <andypugh> On the flip side, with a lot of vacuum you get better motor cooling at low speeds.

[22:24:50] <JT-Shop> lilalinux: is this 3-d mold work or just putting a radius on a profile?
[22:25:32] <lilalinux> JT-Shop: I just thought it would display it in the live plot instead of a cylinder
[22:25:53] <JT-Shop> no, the display is rather primitive at best
[22:26:07] <JT-Shop> the tool display
[22:27:35] <JT-Shop> I have determined beyond a shadow of a doubt that 16 2x6x10' studs in a wall is all I want to stand up by my self
[22:28:07] * JT-Shop is glad there is only 2 small lifts left
[22:28:35] <andypugh> You mean all together in a lump, or individually?
[22:30:04] <andypugh> Anyway, walls should be stone, brick, or block (at a pinch). Wood is no good for building houses, it only lasts a few centuries.

[22:54:21] <LawrenceG> front end loader makes a fine framing assistant
[22:55:35] <andypugh> Makes quite a good scaffolding too. I was rather glad to be stood in the JCB bucket when the stone outhouse I was fiddling with the roof of collapsed.
[22:56:35] <andypugh> The structure in the foreground here:
http://www.bodgesoc.org/before2.jpg was a lean-to double-privvy on the side of the barn.
[22:57:01] <andypugh> Turned out to be a whole lot less stable than it looks.
