[03:05:40] <t12> PCW: yeah it certainly can. somehow the driver knows the model of the motor.

[06:06:05] <MacGalempsy> ive been printing these inserts for our wedding reception
[06:06:30] <MacGalempsy> been drilling oil wells all night, so far
[06:07:39] <archivist> pair of scissors, a ball bearing and a vice with no serations, soldering iron and files makes most of http://www.collection.archivist.info/archive/DJCPD/PD/2010/2010_07_27_tinware/
[06:09:38] <mrsun_> in the choice for a collet holder for the lathe inbetween cold rolled steel and cast iron, what would you make it out of? :P
[06:10:35] <archivist> you can anneal the steel to remove stresses
[06:11:19] <Jymmm> PCW: Carpool lane is from 5am to 7pm tomorrow
[06:11:43] <archivist> or just get collets that fit the morse taper
[06:12:33] <mrsun_> i have some collet holder already for the lathe but not the collet i need, but got a set of ER25 collets and stuff so was thinking of making an ER25 holder for the lathe =)
[06:14:10] <archivist> mrsun_, I got http://www.arceurotrade.co.uk/Catalogue/Collets/ER-Lathe-Collet-Chucks to mount on a lathe
[06:15:57] <archivist> but can also get morse taper er chucks http://www.arceurotrade.co.uk/Catalogue/Collets/ER-Milling-Collet-Chucks
[06:17:34] <archivist> there are plenty of sellers on ebay of the various ER chucks
[06:18:16] <mrsun_> ye but with morsetaper you do not get the hole into the spindle :P
[06:18:25] <mrsun_> and i want it kinda now .. not in 4 weeks :P
[06:19:09] <archivist> now!
[06:19:48] <archivist> that first mount should be easy to get locally
[06:20:48] <t12> pcw: not sure exactly how to interpert
[06:20:57] <t12> pcw: https://www.dropbox.com/sc/8xntpci9ikr8emi/ylUe_rDk5i
[06:21:15] <t12> the long acq i read as 90 symbols over 36us, 400ns per symbol
[06:22:00] <archivist> mrsun_, I have to wait two hours to drive over to get one (opening time) :)
[06:22:12] <mrsun_> haha
[06:22:18] <t12> not sure where to consider the beginning and ending of the other burst, in it trace 1 is the controller, trace 2 is the motors response. If the glitch delimits it, 8 bits on the request would make sense
[06:22:21] <mrsun_> well you are lucky then if you can do it like that
[06:22:26] <t12> but not sure what to think of start, stop bits
[06:22:31] <mrsun_> here for the first part the local stores almost doesnt know waht a lathe or a mill is
[06:22:36] <archivist> that company is only 25-30 miles away
[06:22:48] -!- The_Ball has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds]
[06:22:57] <mrsun_> and if you are lucky enough to get to talk to someone about it they check the most expensive sources they can find just to tell me that they cannot get the stuff i want
[06:23:31] <archivist> there must be something like J&L or Cromwell there
[06:25:37] -!- |1li__ has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
[06:26:11] <mrsun_> but now im gonna get out of bed, go down and see what nuts and bolts i need for the milling machine and go and buy it so i can get it in "working" order =) yeah!
[06:27:11] -!- archivist_herron has quit [Ping timeout: 260 seconds]
[06:27:20] <archivist> mrsun_, i could even go fetch one and airmail it :)
[06:27:37] <mrsun_> heh well i do not have any spare flanged for the lathe either :/
[06:27:46] <mrsun_> and cant realy afford to buy both flange and collet holder :/
[06:27:53] <mrsun_> or neither .. atm :P
[06:28:04] <archivist> make the flange

[08:03:09] <_DJ_> MacGalempsy, sorry, have to go shopping in a few minutes. cnc stuff is only a hobby for me, not my professional job ;)
[08:08:43] <MacGalempsy> heh. thats cool. cnc is my hobby, too. I just happen to work at home on a computer

[08:23:22] <mrsun_> thanks for the offer but ill pass for the time being =) like i said .. cannot afford either of them :( gonna start atleast with making a standard for checking the internal threads =)
[08:24:38] <mrsun_> something is fuxored with my lathe :/
[08:25:46] <mrsun_> the register on the outside of the spindle throws 0.04mm ... if i put a center in the spindle morse taper i get a throw of 0.05mm on that center ...
[08:26:49] <archivist> look for dirt, damage, rust, and is the spindle bent
[08:27:28] <mrsun_> got alot of burrs in the taper that i removed with a MT broach but i guess the taper inside is irellevant as long as the outside is true for chucks etc
[08:27:55] <mrsun_> archivist, from what i remember i checked the spindle shaft when i had it dismanteled before, put it in and checked it where the gears etc are sitting and it was dead true there
[08:27:55] <archivist> if someone ran into the chuck in the past the spindle could be bent
[08:28:20] <mrsun_> but its off at the nose
[08:28:50] <archivist> true the chuck mount on the nose
[08:29:08] <archivist> then you dont care about that small error
[08:29:36] <mrsun_> ahh that is true, so i make it and put it on then true the stuff up =)
[08:29:48] <archivist> yup
[08:29:53] <mrsun_> but would be nice to be able to use a dead center .. but i guess i can regrind the MT also
[08:29:56] <mrsun_> when its on the machine
[08:30:52] <mrsun_> but it sucks that its off, as the throw of the spindle at the nose according to the manual is allowed to be 0.015mm so im quite off =)
[08:30:55] <archivist> or use the taper reamer from the tailestock in the machine
[08:30:56] <mrsun_> but then again, its a very old machine
[08:30:58] <mrsun_> that has seen some abuse
[08:31:12] <mrsun_> wont help if the spindle is already off ?
[08:31:20] <archivist> my old southbend is a lot out
[08:31:48] <mrsun_> i bought the reamer to be able to get the burrs out of the spindle but aparently that is not good enough :P
[08:31:57] <mrsun_> thinking of having a new spindle made at the local cnc shop :P
[08:32:05] <mrsun_> as i know the lathe operator there :P

[08:42:12] <mrsun_> im missing alot of tools for the lathe =)
[08:42:36] <mrsun_> i need a drive plate to make the test thingie for making the drive plate accurate :P

[20:36:37] <WalterN> I thought all galvos were bi-directional
[20:37:02] <WalterN> not all scanning lenses are bi-directional, but arnt all galvos?
[20:37:14] <FinboySlick> WalterN: You're probably right. I was thinking of the spinning mirrors in printers.
[20:37:15] <CaptHindsight> travel is ~170 deg
[20:37:27] <CaptHindsight> but they use far less
[20:37:32] <WalterN> yeah
[20:38:17] <CaptHindsight> the galvos are the highest cost part next to the enclosure
[20:38:22] <PCW> I would think a couple octagonal scanners would be cheaper (but would need more laser power)
[20:38:35] <CaptHindsight> acrylic lid and some anodized aluminum
[20:39:53] <WalterN> anodizing is cheap
[20:39:57] <CaptHindsight> http://bunniefoo.com/form1/f1td-elec-back.jpg you can see both mirrors more clearly here
[20:40:09] <FinboySlick> PCW: More power because they'd be less reflective?
[20:40:33] <PCW> more power because you always scan the max area
[20:40:42] <CaptHindsight> I expect a Chinese version for $995 soon
[20:41:05] <CaptHindsight> probably <$500 within a year
[20:41:28] <FinboySlick> PCW: OK, more power consumption you mean. The laser itself wouldn't necessarily need to be stronger, right?
[20:41:45] <PCW> so a directed beam would be faster for small objects

[20:44:17] <CaptHindsight> either is possible
[20:44:42] <WalterN> <3 vectors
[20:45:04] <WalterN> that reminds me, I should make a business card
[20:45:29] <WalterN> bleh, so many things to do
[20:45:34] <CaptHindsight> 3d systems put the brakes on Form1, I guess it's supposed to ship by jan 1 2014 now
[20:45:43] <PCW> I would think a laser printer company could make a scanned one for not a lot more than a laser printer
[20:46:30] <CaptHindsight> the main difference is the lack of a drum
[20:46:34] -!- gambakufu has quit [Ping timeout: 246 seconds]
[20:46:46] <PCW> might even be 2D mechanical 1D scanned
[20:46:57] <CaptHindsight> the SLA printer projects onto the bottom of a flat transparent vat
[20:47:03] -!- gambakufu [gambakufu!~ah@bzq-84-110-39-3.red.bezeqint.net] has joined #linuxcnc
[20:47:17] <WalterN> hmm
[20:47:21] <WalterN> wouldent have to be flat
[20:47:49] <WalterN> well, the plane would have to be
[20:48:04] <WalterN> but meh
[20:48:10] <PCW> so the guts of a laser printer pointing up with a 2 D stage and the IR led replaced with Blue is just about it
[20:48:12] * WalterN flails and starts downloading debian
[20:49:24] <PCW> plus the laser printer people know more about correcting scanning aberrations
[20:49:53] <t12> theres those scanning aoms from old xerox stuff
[20:49:54] <t12> + driver
[20:49:59] <t12> that can be had on ebay for $30?
[20:50:21] <CaptHindsight> the galvo approach is out of patent
[20:50:39] <CaptHindsight> and it's slower than using a DMD
[20:50:48] <WalterN> DMD?
[20:51:04] <t12> dmds are expensive to play with
[20:51:07] <PCW> I had one of those printers (HeNe laser +Elctro Acoustic modulator)
[20:51:09] <t12> short of rigging projectors
[20:51:09] <CaptHindsight> the mirrors in a DLP
[20:51:24] <t12> 640x480 ish devkit is 600
[20:51:28] <t12> the higher res ones are thousands
[20:51:49] <CaptHindsight> http://www.ti.com/lsds/ti/analog/dlp/overview.page
[20:51:50] <t12> and you need to put some optics in front to really use them
[20:51:54] <WalterN> what is DMD?
[20:52:14] <CaptHindsight> Digital Micromirror Device (DMD)
[20:52:20] <PCW> laser printer guts can do 5000x5000 and cost next to nothing
[20:52:34] <PCW> a projector is silly
[20:52:42] <t12> i've seen the projector units
[20:52:44] <t12> they are silly
[20:53:11] <t12> you need to add an axis to laser printer guts right
[20:53:25] <PCW> Yes 2 D mechanical axis
[20:53:30] <CaptHindsight> laser or DMD need a Z-axis
[20:55:13] <WalterN> woo
[20:55:14] <WalterN> so
[20:55:38] <WalterN> I'm downloading debian for this computer that I'm going to turn into the server for http://www.tryton.org/
[20:55:51] <WalterN> and http://www.openplm.org/trac
[20:56:59] <WalterN> I have two hard drives inside that I'm going to set as RAID1
[20:57:08] -!- FinboySlick has quit [Quit: Leaving.]
[20:57:17] <WalterN> single platter hard drives
[20:57:17] <CaptHindsight> getting ready for some large projects?
[20:57:43] <WalterN> just setting up a nice backend for a company that I'm now a part of
[20:58:32] <WalterN> I need to set up email somehow with the domain name that was bought, but didnt do anything with
[20:58:58] <WalterN> I think it can be tied into gmail somehow...
[20:59:15] <WalterN> could set up my own server, but its kinda a pain in the butt
[21:00:12] <WalterN> setting up SSL is annoying
[21:00:20] <WalterN> for dovecot
[21:02:15] <WalterN> part of that is to look professional to the customer
[21:05:09] <CaptHindsight> PCW: the big difference is exposure time, the laser is at only at 1 point at a time vs >1M points at a time for a DLP
[21:05:32] -!- MattyMatt has quit [Read error: Operation timed out]
[21:05:43] -!- terabyte- has quit [Quit: terabyte-]
[21:05:51] <PCW> at 1 millionth of the intensity :-)
[21:06:24] <CaptHindsight> that is a non-issue
[21:07:20] <CaptHindsight> the polymers cure so quickly that the limit to build rate is cooling the part being built
[21:08:40] <PCW> how much time per layer?
[21:08:47] <CaptHindsight> <1 sec
[21:09:31] <PCW> a scanned laser can do that a lot better than a DLP can
[21:10:32] <PCW> better resolution, lower cost, basically a $300 laser printer with different mechanics
[21:11:22] <WalterN> thats about how much I payed for my color laser printer
[21:11:53] <PCW> its a solved problem
[21:13:03] <_DJ_> gn8
[21:13:51] -!- _DJ_ has quit [Quit: bye]
[21:14:10] <CaptHindsight> the laser scanner printers are all slower than the DLP based
[21:15:28] <PCW> Bad design? Theres no reason they should be slower (and much better resolution and contrast)
[21:16:11] <CaptHindsight> as I mentioned before it has to to with how many places you can have light at the same time
[21:17:13] <PCW> I dont think so...
[21:17:46] <CaptHindsight> it's ok :)
[21:17:59] <PCW> theres no issue doing < 1 sec/layer with a 2d raster scan

[21:22:30] <CaptHindsight> "at 1 millionth of the intensity" is not the case, it might be if you were to use the same light source
[21:24:32] <Meduza> Byt you can go up to higher powered lasers

[22:18:48] <MacGalempsy> looks like servo on the atc, too
[22:18:50] <JT_Shop> so your just wanting no OK from your tool change button?
[22:20:14] <andypugh> No, I want to totally bypass hal_manualtoolchange when _I_ initiate the toolchange, but I also want to be able to clear the dialog with a physical button when the _G-code_ initiates the tool-change. The second half is working

[22:25:39] <JT_Shop> that makes sense to me for work flow to not have to click the extra OK
[22:26:50] <andypugh> There is an air of "look, computer, this is me telling _you_ what I just did, don't yo go acting like it was your idea!"
[22:26:56] <CaptHindsight> PCW: contrast is not an issue with a DMD. I think that there must be lots of misconceptions of how to use DMD's for SLA.
[22:28:21] <PCW> Just saying you can do a lot better
[22:31:30] <CaptHindsight> depends on the application but a million vibrating mirrors usually beats one set of spinning mirrors
[22:32:11] <PCW> not resolution wise and probanl not cost wise either
[22:32:18] <PCW> probably
[22:36:17] * JT_Shop likes the way andypugh thinks about computers
[22:36:43] <CaptHindsight> ~2M mirrors for $100
