[00:26:16] <Jymmm> new printer, not bad so far
[00:26:37] <ReadError> like a 3d printer or printer printer?
[00:26:49] <tjb1> I'm betting printer printer
[00:27:04] <Jymmm> $40 Samsung laser printer
[00:27:10] <tjb1> I win.
[00:27:44] <Jymmm> USB, but I just shared it off the gf's imac in the office instead of plugging it into the usb port on the router.
[00:27:52] <ReadError> Fun scale: -3
[00:27:54] <ReadError> ;(
[00:27:57] <Jymmm> It's fast
[00:28:05] <ReadError> ya all i use is laser printers
[00:28:11] <ReadError> i dont print color really so its all i need
[00:28:19] <ReadError> i got a cheap 3-in-1 for copy/scan
[00:28:27] <Jymmm> Now, I just don't know what to do with the old printer
[00:29:31] <ReadError> extract the steppers of course ;)

[00:33:30] <Jymmm> ReadError: Yeah, looked at aftermarket toner cart for the samsung before buying, but I could almost buy a few of the printers instead of toner
[00:34:02] <Jymmm> I would have preferd the ether, but they wanted an extra $10 for that model.
[00:34:17] <Jymmm> $149

[00:34:45] <ReadError> wont be any loss if you are already out of toner
[00:34:47] <ReadError> refilling it
[00:35:05] <kwallace> Just use a sharpie in your mill.
[00:35:07] <Jymmm> $6 for a refill kit + chip
[00:35:31] <ReadError> 6$ vs 75$
[00:35:32] <L84Supper> Samsung sometimes uses a fuse in the toner cartridge that they blow when it's "empty"
[00:35:36] <ReadError> seems like it would be worth a shot

[00:35:43] <Jymmm> kwallace: I can do that with the laser and powder coting paint
[00:36:01] <kwallace> Good idea.
[00:36:08] <Jymmm> kwallace: laser engraver that is
[00:36:21] <Jymmm> kwallace: And it DOES come with printer drivers =)

[00:37:09] <L84Supper> ah, but that Samsung uses a chip
[00:37:15] <kwallace> I wonder if that would work as a resist for etching PCBs?

[00:38:02] <L84Supper> you can use many types of paint as as etch resist that you can laser engrave off
[00:38:31] <Jymmm> L84Supper: In this ase, the laser fuses the powder paint
[00:38:42] <Jymmm> case
[00:39:22] <L84Supper> Jymmm: yes, it's also a way of doing selective powder coating/printing on non-planar parts
[00:39:40] <Jymmm> L84Supper: If you engrave something, you then fill it with powder paint, drop the power a bit, run the engrave job again, and it fuses the paint in the engraved area
[00:40:06] <L84Supper> Jymmm: yes, i know, I'm working on a 4-color process for that
[00:40:07] -!- MarkusBec has quit [Excess Flood]
[00:40:11] <Jymmm> You can do it on the surface too, but looks nicer recessed
[00:40:46] <Jymmm> L84Supper: but, have you done it yet?
[00:41:22] <L84Supper> Jymmm: yes, I also develop the polymer powders

[00:44:43] <t12> like conductive/resistance/insulating?
[00:44:50] <L84Supper> also process color so you can decorate with powder for producing full color images, not just mono
[00:45:27] <L84Supper> t12: yes conductive, dielectrics, insulators, semiconductors
[00:46:23] <L84Supper> and also the printers with LinuxCNC inside

[01:14:04] <ReadError> whats the difference between A & B?
[01:14:13] <ReadError> i realize what the L & R are for
[01:14:18] <ReadError> but A and B not so much
[01:14:32] <ReadError> is A for cutting a shoulder ?

[01:16:09] <ReadError> so what would be used to just do straight cuts on a part?
[01:16:20] <ReadError> length wise
[01:16:43] <tjb1> Depends which way you are turning
[01:16:47] <t12> http://images2.mcmaster.com/Contents/gfx/large/3367al2l.png?ver=9790199
[01:16:56] <tjb1> B would be for a shoulder to the right, A would do a shoulder to the left
[01:17:14] <tjb1> Wait nevermind...
[01:17:31] <ReadError> ahhh i need FR
[01:17:42] <ReadError> 1st time ive seen one straight across like that..
[01:18:08] <tjb1> GR with a radius would probably be better

[01:27:31] <ReadError> soooo
[01:27:36] <ReadError> i just cut my 1st bit
[01:27:39] <ReadError> pic coming.
[01:28:23] <tjb1> Well the AL and BL can be used about the same then, just rotate the toolpost...

[01:33:42] <skunkworks> hmm - That looks like the angle of the top part is not negative.
[01:34:00] <skunkworks> but it is hard to tell
[01:34:09] <ReadError> well my holder is straight
[01:34:16] <ReadError> so i was under the impression it should be flat
[01:34:25] <tjb1> Why aren't you using the inserts?
[01:34:35] <ReadError> idk
[01:34:42] <ReadError> i kinda just wanted to try sharpening one ;)

[01:40:57] <archivist> yes the side has to have a clearance angle
[01:43:03] <ReadError> so bring in the bottom some?
[01:43:25] <ReadError> on the long cutting side?
[01:43:48] <ReadError> woh i think i turned this into a magnet
[01:43:55] <ReadError> it sticks to the 1-2-3 block now
[01:44:50] <archivist> http://www.steves-workshop.co.uk/tips/toolgrinding/toolgrinding.htm
[01:45:09] <archivist> relief angle
[02:05:10] <Tom_itx> i think my holder holds the tool at a good relief angle so i don't generally cut one
[02:05:19] <ReadError> http://dl.dropbox.com/u/25091878/Photo%20Jan%2001%2C%209%2003%2036%20PM.jpg
[02:05:28] <Tom_itx> i leave the top flat

[02:06:41] <Tom_itx> little better ehh?
[02:06:47] <ReadError> yea getting there
[02:06:51] <ReadError> still need alot of work
[02:22:27] <archivist> with a long thin shaft a long way out the chuck, use a lighter (thinner) cut
[02:22:45] <Tom_itx> and a live center if necessary
[02:23:03] <Tom_itx> archivist is that your tool tutorial or someone else's?
[02:23:11] <archivist> not me
[02:23:22] <archivist> a random one I googled

[02:28:52] <ReadError> now im cooking with butter!
[02:29:31] <ReadError> completely useless part but i managed to get a clean cut finally
[02:30:38] <archivist> note the cut also sounds nicer on a good cut
[02:31:25] <ReadError> i need some little shims i think
[02:31:30] <ReadError> to adjust tool height
[02:31:52] <archivist> very important
[02:33:46] <Tom_itx> yeah i was gonna suggest that
[02:34:10] <Tom_itx> my lathe has a cradle type holder with moon shaped wedge for that adjustment
[02:34:15] <ReadError> well i ground and cut with my 1st lathe bit today!
[02:34:24] <ReadError> thats my small victory for the day
[02:34:31] <Tom_itx> now face it off
[02:34:38] <Tom_itx> see how on center it is
[02:34:45] <ReadError> its below center ;)
[02:34:54] <ReadError> thats why i need some shims
[02:34:56] <skunkworks> ReadError: when is the lathe going to be cnc'ed
[02:35:06] <ReadError> skunkworks, once i learn how to use it i hope :)
[02:35:12] <Tom_itx> paper works if you have nothing else
[02:35:31] <ReadError> i have 5 extra nema 17's
[02:35:36] <Tom_itx> i keep some brass shimstock around
[02:35:37] <ReadError> they could work on a small lathe like this
[02:35:52] <Tom_itx> probably too small
[02:36:39] <ReadError> yea maybe
[02:37:01] <skunkworks> lantern tool post (think that is what those are called...)
[02:37:53] <Tom_itx> could be
[02:37:56] <Tom_itx> it's an older lathe
[02:38:36] <skunkworks> right

[02:40:05] <skunkworks> huh - that looks like grandpas lathe.
[02:40:06] <Tom_itx> that's what i've got
[02:40:11] <Tom_itx> heh
[02:40:50] <t12> heh i have one of those too
[02:40:54] <Tom_itx> i've made some pretty hefty cuts on it
[02:40:59] <t12> its annoying to center
[02:41:18] <Tom_itx> there's a trick to it
[02:41:29] <t12> do tell
[02:41:46] <Tom_itx> i pinch a piece of tool steel between the work and the tool and if it's vertical it's centered
[02:42:09] <t12> ah between
[02:42:12] <t12> the point and the work?
[02:42:23] <Tom_itx> the tool steel will be perpendicular to the bar
[02:42:38] <Tom_itx> so where it touches will tell you when it's on center
[02:42:45] <t12> cool i will try that
[02:42:46] <t12> next time
[02:42:55] <Tom_itx> just don't poke it too hard
[02:43:00] <Tom_itx> just enough to hold it
[02:43:17] <t12> i more just need to fit a better tool holder to the thing
[02:43:48] <t12> http://dodeca-t.com/photos/shop/_E088457.jpg
[02:44:17] <gene__> The lantern tool holder is, while fussy to set, the best of the lot
[02:44:22] <Tom_itx> nice size lathe
[02:44:42] <t12> some 1970's bulgarian direct import thing
[02:44:55] <t12> everyone at work decided it was crap cause they have no idea how to use it
[02:45:01] <t12> and locked it in some room for the last 8 years
[02:45:16] <t12> so i've been slowly getting it back into shape
[02:45:16] <gene__> All of the so-called quick change things hold the bit so far off the center of the compound, it makes them flex and tip over into the work
[02:45:51] <t12> need to make a new compound slide gib or restore the current one that will be
[02:45:52] <t12> uinteresting

[02:46:56] <t12> oh man
[02:46:59] <t12> that looks like a finger eater
[02:47:13] <gene__> nice sized lathe, if its in east of the river, I'd like to have one like that, to cnc of course
[02:47:32] <t12> maybe i'll linuxcnc up that lathe
[02:47:37] <t12> once i hustle up funding
[02:47:50] <Tom_itx> looks like WW2 surplus
[02:47:57] <Tom_itx> with the belt system
[02:48:15] <skunkworks> it is just east of the river... ;)
[02:48:22] <Tom_itx> was set up for a main driveshaft system
[02:48:33] <Tom_itx> where the power was overhead and the belts ran down to the machines
[02:49:03] <skunkworks> yes - someone made a v-belt sleeve to slip over one of the flat belt pullys

[03:37:41] <jdh> what's the most space efficient way to arrange 24 circles inside a circle? 25 would be ok also.
[03:38:19] <jdh> the application is 24 41mm LiFe batteries that have to fit in a cylinder
[03:39:16] <cradek> you will get hexagonal packing. put some pennies on the table and you will quickly see the pattern
[03:41:06] <cradek> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_packing_in_a_circle
[03:41:12] <cradek> wikipedia is awesome
[03:41:48] <cradek> heh it only goes up to 20
[03:42:10] <cradek> http://www2.stetson.edu/~efriedma/cirincir/
[03:43:19] <jdh> cool
[03:43:41] <cradek> cool, 18 and 19 are the same
[03:44:00] <cradek> so anyway I change my answer to I don't know
[03:44:01] <jdh> and 6 & 7
[03:44:09] <cradek> ah right
[03:44:34] <cradek> 17 is funky
[03:50:02] <jdh> I need a hole in the center though.

[14:11:26] <Dolence> hi!
[14:11:37] <Dolence> someone could please help me with a weird problem?
[14:11:57] <jdh> ask and find out!
[14:12:08] <Dolence> my cnc is losing steps when going to home/zero, the same amount of steps on each axis every time
[14:12:56] <archivist> go slower, or fix the ways so less stiff, oil, replace steppers with more powerful
[14:13:26] <Dolence> I've put a pen on the spindle position and tried to make a square, every time I re-run the ngc I loose 2mm on each axis
[14:13:37] <Dolence> when drawing I do not lose any step
[14:13:46] <Dolence> just when restart the ngc
[14:15:04] <archivist> reduce your acceleration and top speed and retry
[14:24:48] <Dolence> for 1/4 microstepping, allegro (same as xylotex) driver and nema-23 powermax II hybrid motor around 50 mm/sec in speed and 500 acceleration should be fine?
[14:25:52] <archivist> depends on hardware and friction slow down till you dont get problems

[17:24:55] <ravenlock> I'm looking for something to validate my CNC code, and possibly "simulate it".
[17:24:55] <jdh> you can install LinuxCNC in sim mode and preview the gcode in axis
[17:24:58] <ravenlock> is 4-axis work I suppose. (x,y,z,c)
[17:25:19] <ravenlock> c being rotation/orientation around z-axis
[17:25:28] <ravenlock> linuxCNC work with that?
[17:25:40] -!- psyhitus has quit [Read error: Connection timed out]
[17:26:04] <ravenlock> grrr… linuxCNC not ported to FreeBSD yet. :s
[17:26:18] <ravenlock> I can install in lunix is I must. ;)
[17:26:30] <jdh> the Linux part of LinuxCNC might be a key for that.
[17:26:32] <ravenlock> err… linux ?
[17:27:03] <ravenlock> right… well *many* linux things run native in FreeBSD as well
[17:27:09] <ravenlock> but thats a different topic really
[17:27:37] <ravenlock> so, the preview mode.....
[17:27:55] <tjtr33> linuxcnc can handle the xyzc, just needs a config that handle the kinematics of your machine. And the simluation is tooltip , not stock removal
[17:28:14] <ravenlock> simulation is "tooltip" ??
[17:28:19] <ravenlock> what does that mean?
[17:28:28] <jdh> it only shows you the tool tip movement
[17:28:31] <tjtr33> the path of the tooltip is diplayed
[17:28:33] <ravenlock> oh oh.
[17:28:36] <ravenlock> ha. k
[17:28:57] <ravenlock> that should be sufficient
[17:28:58] <jdh> there are some demo win* gcode previewers. Don't know if they do 4 axis though.
[17:29:28] <ravenlock> linuxcnc is fine for me if it will handle 4-axis
[17:30:04] <ravenlock> can I input a simple g-code program to it then?
[17:30:12] <ravenlock> or must I do work in LinuxCNC itself?
[17:30:45] <ravenlock> I have written software which automatically generates my g-code. It is this I need validated for sanity
[17:31:47] <ravenlock> would like to generate the g-code, then view it in "simulator" to make sure things are sane before taking next step.
[17:32:40] <jdh> where's the fun in that.
[17:32:51] <jdh> load it up on the machine, hit start
[17:33:04] <tjtr33> if you dont use linuxcnc, will your gcode be compatible? best check the list of commands and format requirements rs324-ngc? (not sure of the rs number )

[17:50:40] <ravenlock> I do not yet have LinuxCNC installed. My query was essentially if it could do what I am looking for
[17:50:48] <IchGuckLive> stepper means dir and ppulses
[17:51:09] <IchGuckLive> you can shure do a simple like mashine
[17:51:22] <IchGuckLive> there will be no problem for you
[17:51:50] <IchGuckLive> ravenlock: where are you from Country
[17:51:55] <ravenlock> is an OKK VC51. Servo I beleive.
[17:51:58] <IchGuckLive> Europ USA ...
[17:52:01] <ravenlock> USA
[17:52:24] <IchGuckLive> thy to get the servo drivers typ
[17:52:52] <jdh> for toolpath viewing, what difference does it make
[17:53:00] <ravenlock> trouble parsing that last line
[17:53:03] <ravenlock> "typ" ?
[17:53:07] <IchGuckLive> http://www.okkcorp.com/images/machine/VC51-3.jpg this is your mill
[17:53:07] <ravenlock> type?
[17:53:16] <ravenlock> correct
[17:53:17] <IchGuckLive> yes
[17:53:40] <IchGuckLive> X720 Y510 Z460mm
[17:53:59] <ravenlock> sounds about right
[17:54:31] <IchGuckLive> its a relativ new mashine what is wrong
[17:55:13] <ravenlock> nothing wrong (yet). looking for a "simulator" for g-code written by some proprietary software
[17:55:27] <IchGuckLive> ah ok
[17:55:40] <IchGuckLive> so there are a bunch of out
[17:55:49] <IchGuckLive> what is your CAD
[17:55:58] <ravenlock> so, basically…. I can produce g-code in automated fashion. Looking for something to "prove its correctness"
[17:56:03] <ravenlock> no CAD.
[17:56:05] <IchGuckLive> By the way im sitting in Germany and its late here
[17:56:23] <IchGuckLive> so you are searching for CAD/CAM
[17:56:28] <ravenlock> no. :)
[17:56:51] <IchGuckLive> the Control on the mashine has a path viewer
[17:57:01] <ravenlock> I am sitting on G-code. I need to see if I can "run it" without "rinning it"… and potentially borking a product. :)
[17:57:20] <IchGuckLive> it also has a 3D mode
[17:57:45] <ravenlock> I don't yet (cough) own the machine. :)
[17:57:58] <ravenlock> I am sending g-code "test palettes" to OKK
[17:58:08] <ravenlock> to have them prove their machine is sufficient for my needs
[17:58:18] <ravenlock> they will/have cut test patterns for me
[17:58:18] <archivist> just run linuxcnc in sim mode and play
[17:58:24] <IchGuckLive> so go with your code to the mashine get the toolpath in and press SetingsGraph 2x
[17:58:39] <ravenlock> but my "final tests" are much more agressive, and require 1000s of lines of gcode
[17:58:58] <IchGuckLive> the mashine can take 100k lines
[17:59:11] <archivist> what sort of end items?
[17:59:11] <ravenlock> is a streamed buffer according to them
[17:59:19] <ravenlock> no real limit… it pages it in
[17:59:20] <tjtr33> is there an example config that uses rotatekins?
[17:59:48] <IchGuckLive> XYZA
[17:59:53] <IchGuckLive> in the stepper
[18:00:09] <IchGuckLive> sim directory
[18:01:00] <tjtr33> does not use rotatekins ( cnat search for the text anyway )
[18:01:06] <IchGuckLive> http://mechmo.de/sculp.png
[18:02:05] <tjtr33> uses trivkins
[18:02:05] <IchGuckLive> ok
[18:02:13] <IchGuckLive> he only neads trivkins as he only got C axis
[18:02:19] <IchGuckLive> with XYZ
[18:02:34] <IchGuckLive> C mounted on X
[18:03:25] <tjtr33> i was trying to picture wether he could use trivkins, was not sure. like a troyke?
[18:03:50] <IchGuckLive> as the picture of he mashine showes
[18:03:56] <ravenlock> C mounted on Z I beleive
[18:03:59] <tjtr33> i remember how to mill a square pocket with a troyke, and wondered if Axis would diplay it corretly
[18:03:59] <archivist> ravenlock, if the end item is of the right form do you know you can "code" in gcode and not bother with writing cam
[18:04:04] <ravenlock> C is a "rotation around z-axis"
[18:04:04] <IchGuckLive> in Display GEOMETRY is the CXYZ
[18:04:20] <IchGuckLive> then it is shown as in my picture post
[18:04:55] <ravenlock> archivist ??
[18:04:56] <IchGuckLive> let me make a Qick sim Test mashine
[18:05:07] <IchGuckLive> ravenlock: 5min
[18:05:26] <archivist> RagingComputer,
[18:05:29] <ravenlock> don't go too far out of your way. I think I have enough infor for the moment
[18:05:36] <ravenlock> IchGuckLive, ^^
[18:05:40] <archivist> ravenlock, what shape items
[18:05:42] <IchGuckLive> NP
[18:05:49] <ravenlock> I will download and try linuxcnc. may do the trick
[18:07:55] <tjtr33> mill square using c x & z: plunge z, move +x, turn c, move +x, turn c, move +x, turn c, move +x retract Z NOT intuitive!
[18:08:23] <archivist> ravenlock, I started by writing code to generate gcode, these days I just write gcode saves a step
[18:09:40] <archivist> tjtr33, simple stuff to write in gcode, thats basically how I cut gears and other regular shapes
[18:10:23] <tjtr33> yes simple to write, can axis display correctly with trivkins? ( will try here )
[18:10:29] <IchGuckLive> ravenlock: mashine is running G-code needed one momend
[18:11:02] <ravenlock> you keep a mill in your pocket then?
[18:11:23] <tjtr33> :)
[18:11:40] <tjtr33> or are you just happy to see me
[18:11:51] -!- yuvipanda has quit [Quit: yuvipanda]
[18:11:58] <IchGuckLive> the boys here know that i got 100 mills like you say pocket size
[18:12:13] <ravenlock> nice
[18:14:45] <ravenlock> archivist… well is a "custom project" for a "fledgling bussiness". I'm obligated to "not say too much" lest you gurus get out there and beat employer to the punch. at which point… they relieve me of my duties.
[18:15:37] <ravenlock> but they products are small, essentially "flat". not like the nice 3d IchGuckLive posted here http://mechmo.de/sculp.png
[18:18:01] <archivist> play with the sim mode I think it covers a lot of needs
[18:18:17] <IchGuckLive> ravenlock: running

[18:42:18] <IchGuckLive> go for lucid 10.04
[18:42:35] <awallin> linuxcnc on 12.04 is only experimental for now... 10.04 is the stable release
[18:42:43] <ravenlock> what do you mean? downgrade ubuntu?
[18:42:58] <ravenlock> I thought 12.x was LTS ?
[18:42:59] <IchGuckLive> no frech install if you got space
[18:43:06] <awallin> yes :) if you can run 10.04 (some new motherboards may not work...)
[18:43:25] <ravenlock> I can run whatever I can pull down. Is VM.
[18:43:51] <awallin> can't control a real machine with a VM...
[18:43:52] <IchGuckLive> so go for dektop 10.04
[18:43:56] <archivist> get the livecd from linuxcnc site
[18:44:01] <IchGuckLive> awallin: sim only

[20:40:12] <gene__> Hi guys
[20:40:45] <gene__> Is there a newer version of counterbore.py that actually does what you tell it?
[20:41:53] <gene__> If I tell it a 1.0 bore, I get .740, if I tell it a 1 1/8" bore, its doing about 1.375"
[20:43:02] <jdh> any chance it is user error?
[20:43:18] <jdh> or incorrect radius compensation?
[20:43:49] <gene__> 4 times in a row? maybe, but its not making sense to me
[20:44:16] <gene__> what radius, it ask for bit diameter, which is always .25"
[20:44:30] <jdh> did you check the generated code?
[20:45:20] <gene__> What I'm trying to do is make counterbores for a couple 1/4" bolts, with hard washers that are about .770 in diameter.
[20:46:09] <jdh> I thought it did standard counterbores for SHCS
[20:46:15] <gene__> and about .500" deep, centered on the already drilled 17/64ths holes
[20:47:11] <gene__> SHCS is a strang term for me, yes it wants to drill a 1.125" SHDS hole about 3/4" deep too
[20:47:37] <jdh> socket head cap screw
[20:48:45] <gene__> The head is 7/16" but needs additional clearance for the washer & socket that will tighten it, hence the need fora recess about.8" in diameter
[20:49:40] <jdh> the pocket generator might be better for making arbitrary sized circular pockets?
[20:49:44] <gene__> the head is 7/16" std hex
[20:50:01] <gene__> let me see if I have it
[20:50:40] <gene__> no, link?
