[00:05:07] <MacGalempsy> making those tired probably violated clean air laws
[00:05:09] <MacGalempsy> heh
[00:06:26] <andypugh> They last decades and never get ounctures.
[00:06:36] -!- adb has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds]
[00:07:26] <MacGalempsy> ive been going through this digital drive for the last two nights and am having difficulty figuring out the wiring
[00:08:19] <andypugh> Yeah, good luck with that :-)
[00:08:48] <MacGalempsy> loading windows 2k so I can attempt a serial interface with the companies obsolete software
[00:09:09] <andypugh> Try a VM
[00:09:58] <MacGalempsy> virtual machine?
[00:10:07] <MacGalempsy> in linux? not sure how to do that
[00:10:28] <Valen> solid tyres.... fun fun fun ;->
[00:11:10] <Valen> You could perhaps look at making urethane tyres, you can do that at room temp at least
[00:11:10] <andypugh> VirtualBox, I think
[00:11:32] <Valen> We make them for small robots so i'm not sure how well it'd carry over
[00:11:51] <andypugh> Some of the steam guys use urethane. Our problem is that we are actually quite fast and do 1000+ miles per year.
[00:12:25] <Valen> speed shouldn't be an issue, durability would be my only concern, but then we use super duper soft stuff
[00:12:37] -!- asdfasd has quit [Ping timeout: 272 seconds]
[00:12:38] <Valen> you want some qualifying tyres for your fire engine? ;->
[00:12:48] <andypugh> Speed is an issue. We tend to over-heat the tyres
[00:13:09] <Valen> would you consider going to a penumatic tyre?
[00:13:13] <Valen> presumably with inner tube
[00:13:44] <andypugh> We had a set that lasted 20 years, then the next set game away from the hoops in 3 years.
[00:14:02] <Tom_itx> guess they don't make things like they used to ehh
[00:14:05] <andypugh> The current set are doing better. it's been about 10 years and they still seem fine.
[00:14:24] <andypugh> There are no rims on the wheels.
[00:14:36] <Valen> how do they attach?
[00:14:38] <andypugh> The tyres are bonded to a steel hoop, and pressed on.
[00:14:52] <Valen> that sounds like awesome fun to change ;->
[00:14:58] <Tom_itx> you can still get them made?
[00:15:50] <andypugh> Here are two more of the same model. One was converted to Pnuematic in the 1930s, and they just don't look right: http://ccmv.aecsouthall.co.uk/img/s3/v26/p121267194-3.jpg
[00:15:52] <Valen> I'd suggest if you did do urethane, make it with multiple grades, go a harder inner then towards a softer outer, it'll reduce the heating
[00:16:25] <Valen> I figured you would go penumatic in the same profile
[00:16:47] <andypugh> I am pretty sure that they simply don't exist
[00:17:02] <Valen> they don't but if you are making stuff why not go nuts ;->
[00:17:53] <andypugh> Scratch-building solid is probably easier than pneumatic. Making beads and plies? That's tricky stuff
[00:18:19] <Valen> I was thinking inner tube to handle most of the tricky stuff
[00:18:29] <andypugh> When the time comes, we will find a way.
[00:18:43] <Valen> plies aren't that hard, doing the side walls could be tricky
[00:20:10] <andypugh> As for fitting, we know an old bloke with a solid-tyre fitting press. Actually, I think that he died, and someone else has it now. But it is a priceless bit of kit (water-hydraulic) and it's pretty certain that it will always find a home (despite being 20 tons and buried in the ground)
[00:21:25] <Valen> lol nice
[00:21:59] <andypugh> I know at least one chap in his 30s who would happily install it in the corner of his yard.
[00:22:14] <Valen> make that 2 ;->
[00:22:22] <Valen> shipping could be a touch expensive lol
[00:23:13] <andypugh> This is him here, rescuing a 1908 truck from under a house (I helped, a little bit) http://hmvf.co.uk/forumvb/showthread.php?13636-1908-Dennis-Truck
[00:25:48] -!- The_Ball has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds]
[00:26:56] <andypugh> Interesting that Dennis were claiming to be "The oldest motor maker in England" in 1907. I guess that means that they still are.

[00:30:58] <Tom_itx> what was it doing under a house?
[00:32:00] <andypugh> The chassis had been converted into a NAAFI wagon trailer, them the trailer into a caravan, then the caravan into a holiday home, then the holiday home, rather organically, into quite a big house. :-)
[00:32:34] <Valen> I can't imagine the histronics that would happen if council found out about that here
[00:36:34] <andypugh> It's really rather unconvetional here. Perhaps even more so. The reason that Ben has not got a lot further with his van is that he is converting an old factory into a house, and the building regs hoops he is having to jump through are ludicrous. (Because it is a change-of-use it has to be up to all the very latest regulations.) I am just grateful that the house I built had always been a house (for 500 years) so we were exem
[00:36:35] <andypugh> from nearly all the rules (and ignored the rest :-)
[00:37:23] -!- Nick001 [Nick001!~Nick001@74.47.92.6] has joined #linuxcnc
[00:37:28] <Tom_itx> at what point did you update the house with modern utilities? or is it?
[00:38:02] <Tom_itx> that would be a chore in itself
[00:38:42] <Valen> I want to design a house to last 500 years
[00:39:11] <Tom_itx> you'd never know if you succeeded
[00:39:12] <Valen> the name of the game is "expansion", who knows what people will want to run by then, probably going to need a matter pipe
[00:39:33] <Valen> if its still standing when i kick the bucket I'll call it close enough?
[00:39:44] <Valen> I love the idea of making stuff to last, things that'll last a long time
[00:40:20] <andypugh> Valen: http://www.bodgesoc.org/slaithwaite.html
[00:40:44] <andypugh> (a very old website, from the days when "thumbnail" was literal.
[00:41:31] <Valen> I'm working on some pliers at the moment, replacable carbide/hss inserts for the cutters, user serviceable hinge joint, stainless handles
[00:42:00] <andypugh> What brand?
[00:42:18] <Valen> I'll be making them
[00:42:29] <Valen> I haven't seen anything like that in pliers, they are all disposable
[00:42:41] <andypugh> Though I am rather parial to box-jointed pliers and nippers, partly because I have no idea how they make them.
[00:44:13] <Tom_itx> they must burnish the 'rivet' joint
[00:44:20] <Tom_itx> then grind the outter part
[00:44:41] <Valen> I was going for a pair of angular contact bushings with adjustable preload
[00:45:02] <andypugh> That's the easy part of the puzzle. The hard part is how they assemble them..
[00:46:40] -!- The_Ball has quit [Ping timeout: 245 seconds]
[00:47:48] <Valen> andypugh: probably stamp them after putting them through each other
[00:48:44] <andypugh> Well, yes, but, it is still pretty impressive how all the curves still fit after that.
[00:50:03] <andypugh> I have no reason to think that this might not last 500 years: https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/RXISmcDuivLRVKO9-hnzqdMTjNZETYmyPJy0liipFm0?feat=directlink
[00:50:10] <Tom_itx> http://www.cogsdill.com/products/burnishing/
[00:50:22] <Tom_itx> that was what i was thinking of
[00:50:26] <Tom_itx> the process anyway
[00:52:36] <Valen> hey anybody know much about vapour deposition
[00:52:51] <Valen> I was wondering how much vacuum i need to pull to plate some copper
[00:53:01] <andypugh> I used to.
[00:53:27] <Valen> it looks to be simple enough in the home shop
[00:53:38] <Valen> not trivial of course but not OMG either
[00:53:40] <andypugh> Time was that I would be doing VD every day, when I was an electron microscopist.
[00:54:01] <Valen> heh, might be a little higher end than I need
[00:54:36] <andypugh> At the time it needed both a roughing pump and a diffusion pump.
[00:54:49] <andypugh> But things have moved on a lot in that area.
[00:56:24] <andypugh> http://www.ebay.com/itm/Pfeiffer-TPH-055-turbo-turbomolecular-vacuum-pump-UHV-/251358783172?pt=BI_Pumps&hash=item3a8626a6c4
[00:56:56] <t12> the one i have at work uses a roughing pump and a tiny turbo
[00:57:02] <t12> for use with carbon
[00:57:42] <andypugh> It makes me feel quite old that when I played with HV the turbomolecular pump hadn't been invented.

[00:58:13] <Valen> My application is plating copper onto glass, I want a decent coating for electrical conductivity

[00:59:21] <Valen> Think that'd be needed if i purged with argon first?
[01:00:52] <andypugh> Yes
[01:01:29] <Valen> :-<
[01:01:49] <Valen> I was hoping I could get away with a refregeration pump
[01:02:36] <Valen> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ne4-10kiSaE&noredirect=1 I should speak to this guy
[01:02:42] <andypugh> I guess this is out of your budget? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Emitech-K650-Large-Sample-Sputter-Coater-/251321284641?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3a83ea7821
[01:03:05] <Valen> heh just a touch ;->
[01:03:43] <Valen> I wonder if thats some kind of turbo pump under the chamber he has there
[01:03:44] <andypugh> He looks to have a diffusion pump there.

[01:24:26] <cradek> joebog: impossible to say -- measure resistances
[01:24:37] <joebog> thanks
[01:24:37] <Tom_itx> an ohm meter will tell you
[01:24:51] <andypugh> You can check the ends with a multimeter. I would rather expect black/black white to show a few ohms to each other.
[01:25:24] <andypugh> Alternatively, if you connect any two wires, only the phase-ends will make the motor harder to turn
[01:25:25] <cradek> if you have the motor in hand, and no ohmmeter, you can also do a quick test shorting the windings and feeling the cogging increase
[01:25:29] <cradek> ha
[01:25:37] <cradek> great minds think alike, and so do we
[01:26:50] <andypugh> What also matters on an 8-wire is the phase directions. I had a couple of motors where the data sheet didn't match the actual wires. So my serial connections ended up back-to bal
[01:27:02] <joebog> what I just found is that red/white and yellow/white are shorted toigether and black/white and orange/white are also shorted
[01:27:12] <joebog> sorry for stupid question :D
[01:27:27] <andypugh> ... back to back. Lots of current, no torque. The wire-shorting method is the only way to sort that out.
[01:27:58] <cradek> you should expect a few ohms, not a dead short
[01:28:17] <cradek> you probably have two coils with center taps, and the resistances will help you tell which are the centers
[01:28:27] <cradek> andypugh: he has 6
[01:28:41] <Tom_itx> a couple may be centertaps
[01:28:46] <joebog> have received from china the new controller for indexing headDM860A VERY nicely made !!!
[01:28:48] <andypugh> it's not a stupid question. It's actually pretty involved when you are trying to sort out A1 from B2 etc on an 8-wire, and figure out the directions too.
[01:29:11] <andypugh> Ah, 6 is easier. Must learn to pay attention.
[01:29:29] <joebog> there are 6 wires out of the motor but are shorted as I noted above
[01:29:40] <joebog> I didnt see that at first
[01:29:44] <andypugh> joebog: Were you the guy who orderef the flat-belt from lathes.co.uk?
[01:29:52] <joebog> yes I was
[01:29:59] <joebog> still no answer
[01:30:03] <andypugh> Strange.
[01:30:11] <joebog> two machines
[01:30:17] <andypugh> I have noticed that the online shop has disappeared.
[01:30:44] <joebog> just checked emails again
[01:30:53] <joebog> nothing and its like a month ago
[01:31:05] <joebog> maybe they are translating ASCII to morse ????
[01:31:12] <joebog> :D
[01:31:31] <andypugh> They still seem to offer belts, but it looks like they might have given up on the online shop. Perhaps due to problems with it.
[01:32:29] <andypugh> My belt definitley arrived, and is very good. You can see it at the end of this video: http://youtu.be/0rwoD2vZUl0
[01:33:46] <joebog> I still need flat belts if anybody can reccomend somewhere
[01:33:53] <joebog> dont care yank or pommie
[01:34:21] <joebog> and milling cutters etc
[01:34:25] <joebog> collet chucks
[01:35:20] <andypugh> I don't know what has gone wrong with the belt order. I suggest you might need to try a telephone call. Though that might be tricky and a bit expensive.

[01:48:47] <PetefromTn> Watching the dark night.....kickass movie.
[01:49:19] <someone972_> That's the third one right?
[01:49:53] <PetefromTn> The one with Heath Ledger as Joker. Chilling performance.
[01:50:26] <someone972_> Agreed, he did an incredible job.
[01:51:33] <PetefromTn> The way he spoke, the things he said and that freaking crazy look on his face.....probably the best bad Guy in any movie ever. Period.
[01:53:22] <PetefromTn> Anyone making anything interesting with LinuxCNC today?
[01:53:38] <someone972_> Well I'm trying to get my homemade cnc machine moving
[01:53:47] <andypugh> PetefromTn: Did you see my pulley?
[01:53:55] <PetefromTn> Homemade CNC what?
[01:54:20] <someone972_> It's a standard 3-axis stepper driven machine built mainly out of parts from home depot
[01:54:25] <PetefromTn> Andypugh no I missed it apparently
[01:54:34] <andypugh> I think that was slightly interesting, I doubt that more than a few flat belt pulleys get made in the average week :-)
[01:54:45] <PetefromTn> Cool router then?
[01:55:01] <andypugh> http://youtu.be/0rwoD2vZUl0
[01:55:32] <PetefromTn> Ooh video.....standby while I watch. On my smartphone here LOL.
[01:56:24] <someone972_> So is there anyone on that's familiar with the LinuxCNC source code that could point me in the right direction?
[01:57:19] <andypugh> You shouldn't need source-code level knowledge to get your machine working
[01:57:21] <andypugh> :-)
[01:57:45] <someone972_> The controller isn't exactly standard :p
[01:58:49] <andypugh> What's the question?
[01:59:02] <someone972_> Essentially I want to offload the final step generation to the control board
[01:59:12] <andypugh> OK.
[01:59:27] <andypugh> Your own control board?
[01:59:42] <someone972_> ya
[01:59:48] <PetefromTn> Andypugh damn that is some serious turning man. Jealous dude. My kingdom for a horizontal vertical mill LOL.
[02:00:37] <andypugh> someone972_: You have built the board? I only ask as you can buy a PCI card that does this for $80
[02:01:48] <someone972_> I kind of built it - it's on a breadboard right now. It's more of a learning experience then for practicality's sake.
[02:02:14] <someone972_> Although I have a pcb designed so it can cut out it's own board when the time comes ;P
[02:02:39] <PetefromTn> What's the structure built from?
[02:03:07] -!- mrsun has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds]
[02:03:19] <someone972_> Are you asking andy or me?
[02:03:30] <andypugh> But, basically, the axis.N.motor-position-cmd HAL pin updates every 1mS (if that is the servo thread rate) so all your board has to do is to set its pulse rate correctly to make the right number of pulses in the next servo period. Ideally compensating for any pulses it under-shot or over-shot by last time.
[02:03:31] <PetefromTn> You...
[02:04:00] <someone972_> What do you mean by structure?
[02:04:20] <PetefromTn> I mean whayzitmadeof?
[02:04:52] <someone972_> Oh, MDF (wood particle board) and aluminum bars
[02:05:14] <someone972_> It's fairly small, it's mostly designed for simple circuit board milling
[02:05:58] <PetefromTn> Aah cool....
[02:06:24] <andypugh> You probably want to look at the intearaction between the make-pulses and calculate-position functions here: http://git.linuxcnc.org/gitweb?p=linuxcnc.git;a=blob;f=src/hal/components/stepgen.c;h=09bbcf3c90771a7b67201e7d34f50182ff884cc7;hb=HEAD but the closest analogue of what you are trying to do is the (less simple) code here;
[02:06:25] <andypugh> http://git.linuxcnc.org/gitweb?p=linuxcnc.git;a=blob;f=src/hal/drivers/mesa-hostmot2/stepgen.c;h=0538d8a833be8d9f16a10d401f2934a5f01d5f6f;hb=HEAD
[02:07:36] <PetefromTn> Kinda like a microcarve?
[02:07:40] <someone972_> That looks like a good place to start
[02:09:34] <someone972_> Kind of, except the z axis is fixed in the x/y direction while the x y tables move below it
[02:10:03] -!- exco has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds]
[02:10:50] <PetefromTn> Interesting, i like the looks of the microcarve machines. Would not mind building one.
[02:11:31] <someone972_> It probably would have been a good idea to come on here and other forums before building it, it's loosely based off of various diy designs I found online, and a lot of seat-of-the-pants engineering
[02:11:44] <someone972_> Is that the right term? Sounds weird
[02:11:56] <PetefromTn> Cool got a pic or three?

[02:31:09] <someone972_> So lets say that I want to queue commands on the control chip, where would I be looking for that?
[02:31:46] -!- The_Ball has quit [Ping timeout: 265 seconds]
[02:34:32] <andypugh> We don't do queuing
[02:34:59] <andypugh> LinuxCNC is "realtime"
[02:36:14] <andypugh> When an axis position command is sent, then the expectation is that next time the system looks (1mS later, typically) then that is where is will be.
[02:36:59] <andypugh> So, the system sends an updated position request every mS (pretty much exactly) and the job of your board is to make it so.

[02:38:11] <someone972_> Maybe I'm thinking too high-level of the read-ahead queueing

[03:00:55] <Tom_itx> they were VMC though
[03:01:06] <andypugh> someone972_: Yes but, LinuxCNC is realtime too,
[03:01:25] <andypugh> And, in fact, has no way to not be realtime.
[03:01:59] <someone972_> What is considered realtime?
[03:02:02] <t12> http://www.quantum-munich.de/fileadmin/media/media/higgs/Higgs-press_picture_apparatus_01.jpg
[03:02:18] <andypugh> It's only "soft" realtime, but it is realtime enough that queuing would be hard (and pointless) to implement.

[12:49:20] <MacGalempsy> a sucessful night of wiring the encoders. time to wire up the electric and setup the axis motors
[12:50:49] <probotix> our mail server is not flagged by any of the blacklists that i have been able to find
[12:52:01] <skunkworks> maybe ping cradek - I think he may be one of the admins of the sourceforge list
[12:52:11] <probotix> and i get the same result when the email server is sitting on an ip address that has a reverse mx lookup
[12:57:16] <archivist> probotix, only one name server

[13:11:34] <probotix> thanks archivist, but i just don't see the problem and this is something that suddenly started happening without us making any changes
[13:12:21] <archivist> what skunkworks says and people are now requiring txt records for mail too
[13:13:22] <cradek> probotix: I got your mail. I also gave you advice about this days ago, not sure if you saw it.
[13:14:01] <cradek> and no I don't have much control over the lists at all, and I can't see sourceforge's logs unfortunately. they have a trouble ticket system that you might try if you need their help.
[13:14:13] <probotix> i did, and i contacted our host who setup a reverse record for us, but i still coulnd't get through on that ip address
[13:14:16] <cradek> but you should fix your dns problems first, and you should also probably stop sending html
[13:14:43] <cradek> the mail you sent me personally has Received: from vps.probotix.com (vps.lunarpages.com [67.210.123.95] (may be forged)
[13:14:44] <probotix> whats stange is that i can send email from any other domain on that same server, its only *@probotix.com that fails
[13:15:00] <cradek> that means your forward and reverse DNSes don't match up, as I advised earlier
[13:15:14] <cradek> that would also tend to implicate DNS problems

[14:53:58] <cradek> yes make forward and reverse dns match each other, make sure your spf records are right, don't send html
[14:53:59] <archivist> I hate setting up mail too :)
[14:54:19] <archivist> you have no spf record
[14:54:32] <cradek> oh that's probably fine
[14:54:37] <cradek> no record is much better than a wrong one

[14:55:38] <cradek> probotix: do you have access to YOUR sendmail logs?
[14:55:53] <cradek> probotix: it would be interesting to see whether they're accepting your mail in the first place
[14:56:23] <probotix> yes - it looks like they are accepting
[14:56:24] <cradek> probotix: if your mail gets dropped and you don't get either an error when sending or a bounce later, SOMEONE has something very wrong
[14:56:39] <probotix> and no bounce
[14:57:36] <cradek> paste the acceptance line?
[14:58:09] <probotix> i turned on "Receive acknowledgement mail when you send mail to the list?" and sent one to developers yesterday morning - got the acknowledgement, sent another two minutes later and it disappeared into the ether without an ack

[15:04:13] <probotix> the ack i was talking about is an actual email that SF will send you letting you know they received your email
[15:05:00] <probotix> the subject is "Emc-developers post acknowledgement"
[15:06:23] <probotix> you have to turn that on in your SF settings
[15:07:39] <cradek> your FCrDNS still fails today. I suspect that's the most important thing you should fix: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forward_Confirmed_reverse_DNS
[15:08:01] <cradek> specifically for 67.210.123.95

[15:09:20] <cradek> it's a very important spam indicator
[15:11:30] <cradek> if you don't have adequate control over your dns, you might want to send through your isp's smtp relay (aka "smart host")

[15:59:44] <CaptHindsight> PetefromTn: is 4-5 axis CAM what you really need and not the CAD?
[16:00:35] <PetefromTn> CaptHindsight: Actually I don't even have a fourth yet but sure would be nice LOL... I actually was hoping for a good cad too tho I am using that freecad for 3d work now and it is nice but has aways to go before it is really working well.
[16:02:26] <PetefromTn> Really just wanted something reasonable that has full 3d toolpathing and maybe fourth axis for down the road but integrated would be real nice. Only thing that comes close is Bobcad Cam for anywhere within a reasonable price range to me.

[20:00:03] <PetefromTn> That's pretty cool but I gotta say that excellent barrels are available nowadays for so cheap it is not worth the trouble anymore unless you just want one.
[20:00:24] <jdh> being able to make one well woudl be cool in itself.
[20:01:33] <PetefromTn> yeah agreed. You can button rifle easier too with a homebuilt draw bench I understand. Again never tried it due to the great barrels available.
[20:03:29] <jdh> they might not be available when you need one.
[20:03:53] <jdh> after the impending Obama^Wzombie apocalypse.
[20:04:58] <Jymmm> PetefromTn: Not that cheap http://www.riflebarrels.com/products/centerfire_lilja_rifle_barrels.htm
[20:07:00] <PetefromTn> Cheap is relative...
[20:08:11] <PetefromTn> I recently bought a sweet barrel for my continuing Precision Airgun Field Target rifle I am working on from Weirauch in Germany and it was just over $100.00... It is far and away one of the finest airgun barrels available anywhere.

[23:13:34] <PetefromTn> That does suck, too bad it's not a set true model.
[23:16:00] <archivist> andypugh, toolpost grinder :)
[23:16:38] <andypugh> The position and extent of max eccentricity depends on the diameter being gripped. I reckon the scroll is worn.
[23:16:45] <archivist> but before you do that check for damage
[23:17:34] <archivist> sounds like it, at least you have the technology to remake the scroll
[23:18:18] <andypugh> I also have eBay, which is likely to be more efficient.
[23:18:28] <archivist> cheat :)
[23:18:44] -!- syyl_ws has quit [Quit: Verlassend]
[23:20:00] <PetefromTn> Too bad but three jaw scrollers are often shitty even the better ones. Consistency at varying diameters is hard.

[23:35:53] <PetefromTn> never seen those, out of Production apparently, any good?
[23:36:14] <archivist> were often used on older lathes
[23:36:33] <andypugh> Allegedly, though Archivist has a point, and they were rather heavy.

[23:37:56] Valen1 is now known as Valen
[23:38:23] <PetefromTn> I need to fab me up a 5c collet closer for my lathe. It would come in REAL handy.
[23:38:56] <JT_Shop> they are pretty cheap PetefromTn
[23:39:18] <andypugh> I have been trying to figure out the mechanism. (I think I have)
[23:39:30] <PetefromTn> Yeah but I have a cheap asian 12x36...
[23:40:09] <PetefromTn> I did get a GREAT deal on a nice almost brand new Stainless Gas grill off Craigslist today tho!!
[23:41:09] <PetefromTn> We just finished grillin' some brontosaurus burgers on that thing and compared to the old POS we used to have it sure was nice to use the new one. Now I just gotta haul off that piece of crap we used to use.
[23:41:14] Cylly is now known as Loetmichel
[23:42:56] <PetefromTn> andypugh: How can you make a scroll like you were saying, using your Horiz?
[23:43:42] <andypugh> Well, I wasn't the one saying I could do it, but it sounds like a job for a face-grooving cutter and G33.
[23:43:55] -!- probotix has quit [Ping timeout: 260 seconds]
[23:44:24] <andypugh> Actually, there is not a lot to be lost by having a go at re-machining the existing scroll.
[23:44:57] <archivist> that loses strength
[23:45:20] <archivist> I would do it on the rotary
[23:46:11] <andypugh> How does that lose less strength?
[23:46:44] <archivist> thinner scroll "teeth"
[23:47:09] <andypugh> The chunky bevel gear on the back, and the heat-treatment is a bit of a barrier to making a new one.
[23:47:29] <archivist> we called that take out the wear in clock repair
[23:47:52] <andypugh> Yes, I know that re-machining loses strength. My question was how doing it on the rotary is better?
[23:48:16] <andypugh> (It's a foible of mine, of a job _can_ be done on a lathe, then I tend to)
[23:49:51] <PetefromTn> It's too bad you can't just cut the scroll and not have to do anything to the jaws but I imagine the clearances would open up leaving a bunch more slop.
[23:49:59] <archivist> think spiral.ngc but actually it may just be a g1 x0 a(25*360)
[23:50:35] <archivist> or whatever the number or rotations are needed
