[19:56:19] <Mjolinor> ok, need brains
[19:56:49] <Mjolinor> I have soem steppers here and I sort of assumed that if they were not notchy to turn when unpowered then they were knackered
[19:56:58] <Mjolinor> is that reasonable?
[19:58:00] <Mjolinor> thing is that these steppers are smooth to turn, they are 180 oz in steppers, 5.9 volt adn a resistance of 1.2 ohms (6 wire stepper,, resistance 1<>3, not end to centre
[19:58:38] <Mjolinor> so if I statically power one of the windings with 2 amps tehn I get a holding torque of about 125 oz in which seems ot me to say they are OK
[19:59:09] <Mjolinor> full current would be 3.1 but I dont have that on a constant current source, 2 is the most I can manage
[19:59:29] <Mjolinor> so, my assumption that steppers should be notchy if they are OK seems to be flawed
[19:59:36] <Mjolinor> comments please

[20:20:33] <archivist> would depend on the magnetics how notchy they feel unpowered

[20:22:38] <jdhNC> connect the coil wires and see if it feels notchier
[20:23:41] <archivist> as in short them together, it becomes a generator working into a short so you have to provide more effort

[20:30:29] <Connor> So, What would be a good sized fly cutter to get for my G0704?
[20:31:02] <Tom_itx> 3" ?
[20:31:10] -!-
jarray52 [jarray52!~purplehaz@unaffiliated/jarray52] has parted #linuxcnc
[20:31:32] <jdhNC> there are cheap 3 sets on ebay
[20:31:50] <Connor> Cheap on Shars.com too
[20:32:05] <Connor> http://www.shars.com/products/view/743/3_Piece_Fly_Cutter_Set
[20:32:06] <syyl> hmm
[20:32:12] <Mjolinor> good thinking
[20:32:22] <jdhNC> looks the same, other than price.
[20:32:22] <Mjolinor> they go extremely notchy when you short one winding
[20:32:25] <syyl> make it yourself :)
[20:32:37] <Connor> syyl: Was thinking of that too.
[20:33:11] <jdhNC> I ordered an R8 facemill for mine, but it hasn't gotten here yet.
[20:33:22] <syyl> in best case directly with an morsetaper/R8 shank fitting your mill
[20:33:57] <Connor> Why not 3/4" with Collet ?
[20:34:14] <syyl> personal preference ;)
[20:34:31] <Tom_itx> fewer things to get out of center
[20:34:37] <Connor> Do plan to go TTS at some point.
[20:34:37] <syyl> in my mind, direct chucking is better, more rigid..
[20:34:45] <syyl> tts?
[20:34:46] <Tom_itx> yup
[20:34:51] <Tom_itx> tape to shape?
[20:34:57] <jdhNC> tormach
[20:35:17] <Connor> Yea. Quick Change.. AKA Tormach.
[20:35:25] <syyl> then make one with an interchangeable shank ;)
[20:35:44] <jackc> Connor: how well did the cnc conversion go on your G0704?
[20:35:49] <jackc> was it a huge hassle or not bad?
[20:35:58] <Connor> jackc. Still in process. :)
[20:36:02] <archivist> I make my own flycutters
[20:36:11] <jackc> ah. are you replacing the screws with ballscrews?
[20:36:20] <Connor> I got side tracked. having to save up $$ for the motors and electronics.
[20:36:23] <Connor> not yet.
[20:36:43] <Connor> just doing the phase 1. I made all my motor mounts and stand off's though.
[20:36:49] <jackc> those cheap dovetails always scare me... how much does the table wobble when you ahve it tightened down properly?
[20:37:01] <jackc> (sorry to interrogate you, ive been trying to pick a mill for my house)
[20:37:15] <jdhNC> life is full of tradeoffs
[20:37:21] <jackc> quite
[20:37:23] <Connor> It doesn't. the 704 is very rigid.
[20:37:35] <Connor> more than the X3 by most peoples accounts.
[20:37:38] <jackc> wow
[20:38:08] <Connor> http://www.cnczone.com/forums/benchtop_machines/111863-hosss_g0704.html
[20:38:27] <Connor> go read that thread.. It'll take you a few days... or more. :)
[20:38:47] <jackc> will do- thanks for the info!
[20:39:10] <jdhNC> it (and the youtube videos) convinced me.
[20:39:17] <Connor> G0704/BF20/BF25 etc.. are easier to convert to CNC than the X3's too from what I can tell.
[20:39:19] <jackc> jdhNC: you ahve one as well?
[20:39:24] <jdhNC> yep
[20:39:34] <jackc> jdhNC: stock screws, or ball?
[20:39:47] <jdhNC> not sure yet.
[20:39:47] <Connor> he's waiting on me to get mine converted.. :)
[20:39:53] <jdhNC> heh, yep.
[20:39:54] <jackc> haha, ah :-p
[20:39:58] <Connor> ROFL
[20:40:13] <jdhNC> that and I picked up a brand new X2 for $200 that I'll probably do first.
[20:40:29] <jackc> cool
[20:40:39] <jackc> i gotta get back to work, catch you guys around
[20:40:46] <Connor> I got a little 7x10 lathe on long term loan.. that helped allot on making the stand off's
[20:43:55] <Gromits> Anyone know how to have a button be a specific size in Gladevcp? If I define a single button it is huge. I have tweaked most (or all) of the settings in glade to no avail...
