[02:57:12] <default_> for some reason, at very low feed rates, it seems like any individual axis will not respond to a manual command until up to a few hundredths of an inch later

[02:57:22] <logger[mah]> Tom_itx: Log stored at

[02:57:40] <default_> I don't believe it is mechanical backlash, because this will occur when a sequence of moves in the same direction is taken
[02:58:04] <default_> this also occurs when the motor is off of the machine
[02:58:20] <default_> so I believe it may be entirely on emc's end
[02:58:23] <Tom_itx> pcw_home, i updated the bitfile pages to look more 'doc' friendly:

[02:58:53] default_ is now known as Nostoc
[02:59:03] <Nostoc> does anyone have any insight to this problem?
[02:59:14] <Nostoc> or knowledge about how EMC performs with regards to microstepping?

[03:04:25] <skunkworks> Nostoc: explain your problem like - 'manual command'
[03:04:42] <Nostoc> i'm not sure what you mean
[03:04:52] <Nostoc> I could try and simplify my explanation further
[03:06:40] <Nostoc> i'm using a micrometer to verify if the MDI commands are working properly; i'm doing this by issuing a command like g1 x0.5 f1 and seeing if the micrometer moves 0.5"
[03:08:15] <Nostoc> unfortunately, the instrument doesn't move 0.5" when I command it to; there seems to be an error with the distance, the error appears to be random, and it appears to be pronounced at lower feeds
[03:08:55] <Nostoc> To try and isolate the problem, I then removed the motor from the instrument, and tested it without any load on it
[03:09:35] <Nostoc> It appears as though the motor shaft doesn't start moving until EMC has registered between 0 and 0.3" of movement

[14:21:00] <jdh> cloth covered wires running from insulators across the floor joists?
[14:21:11] <Jymmm> knot and tube
[14:21:55] <skunkworks> knob ;)
[14:22:40] <Jymmm> I've been been a in a place where knob and tube wiring was is regular use, just in abandoned buildings and at the hardware store
[14:22:52] <Jymmm> ^never
[14:23:14] <jdh> I worked in a plant that still had shafts and pulleys running across the top to power machines
[14:23:42] <cradek> Jymmm: around me LOTS of houses still have and use it. I have some that's in use.
[14:24:02] <cradek> there's nothing wrong with it, it's a perfectly fine technology
[14:24:04] <jdh> it was pretty cool looking. huge leatherish belts, oilers on the pulleys
[14:24:37] <cradek> (I also bet you're wrong that you've never been somewhere where it's in use)
[14:24:43] <Jymmm> cradek: Yeah, there are a few places around here that still have some thus why I've probably seen it in the hardware store, including cloth wiring.
[14:24:55] <cradek> usually wiring is not visible
[14:24:56] <Jymmm> cradek: BRAND NEW too
[14:25:25] <Jymmm> Who in the sel makes much less sells cloth wiring is beyond me
[14:25:27] <cradek> well I'd be surprised to see it put in anywhere new... I doubt that's code anywhere.

[14:25:52] <Jymmm> No, but I suspect for repairs
[14:26:04] <Jymmm> maybe rat chewed or something
[14:29:08] <PetefromTn> I worked in a custom woodshop in downtown Knoxville that had all those old pulleys and shafts running to power the old machines but the machines were gone replaced by much newer state of the art machines. The floor was all tongue and groove wood and there were places it felt like a roller coaster when walking across the shop. Honestly it was really easy on your feet compared to the concrete slab I work on out in my shop.
[14:29:09] <PetefromTn> It is always warm and gives a little when you walk on it making it easier on you. We even had those old wood carts with the massive castors and plank decks to move materials around.
[14:29:57] <jdh> Pete: the one I was talking about was the old rohm and haas plant in knoxville.
[14:30:17] <jdh> next to 40 by 17th

[14:30:28] <PetefromTn> Aah interesting.. I worked in the building that burned down about four years ago..
[14:30:59] <PetefromTn> It was a damn shame actually it was kinda interesting building but I hear they are planning some nice new buildings for that place now.
[14:31:51] <PetefromTn> They said some homeless people built a fire in the next door building and it got out of hand and spread to the rest of the adjoining buildings.
[14:32:16] <jdh> is the plant still there?
[14:32:27] <PetefromTn> They had just recently bought a brand new fancy massive wide belt sander and a cyclone dust evac system for it and it all went up in smoke.
[14:33:08] <PetefromTn> No the owner moved his business to Oliver Springs where his property is and it was just way to far to drive for me so I had to get a job closer to home.

[14:35:50] <PetefromTn> I was just cutting some plexiglass for some cabinet door windows.
[14:36:02] <PetefromTn> Stuff cracks if you look at it the wrong way.
[14:36:14] <PetefromTn> okay then they are still there I guess.
[14:36:19] <jdh> they used to make plexiglas a that plant
[14:36:43] <PetefromTn> LOL maybe I should call them and complain.
[14:37:08] <PetefromTn> I just remember all the time it smelling like coffe from the coffe plant nearby downtown. Smelled like burned coffee all the time LOL
[14:37:18] <jdh> they shipped all plexi mfg to china in the early 80s due to EPA
[14:37:30] <PetefromTn> that explains it...
[14:37:45] <PetefromTn> Seems like if it gets the least bit hot from the cut it crazes and cracks..
[14:37:57] <PetefromTn> ANNOYING!!
[14:38:14] <jdh> I had code that made paint base for sherwin williams and insecticide. Turns out they are almost the same thing.
[14:38:47] <PetefromTn> Really no kidding... Nice to smell that in your house....
[14:38:55] <jdh> I've cut acrylic on my router. Never had any problems as long as I moved fast enough.
[14:39:08] <PetefromTn> CNC router?
[14:39:11] <jdh> yeah
[14:39:30] <PetefromTn> I cut acrylic all the time actually but these pieces are just 1/8 inch thick and it crazes bad.
[14:39:56] <jdh> use glass
[14:40:01] <PetefromTn> Mostly cut it on my tablesaw but this is radiused so I hit it with the bandsaw.
[14:40:13] <PetefromTn> I use the plastic for safety reasons..
[14:40:41] <PetefromTn> If it is lower close to the floor I use plastic, if it is up out of the reach of kids I use safety glass...
[14:41:08] <jdh> c'mon, pandering to safety fears just breeds weak children.
[14:41:12] <PetefromTn> Not sure if that is a great idea or not...
[14:41:45] <PetefromTn> LOL yeah exactly... Hell when I was a kid we just shoved our heads thru the non safety glass and got cut and went on our merry way hehehe

[14:43:06] <PetefromTn> the stuff looks exactly like a piece of glass once it is installed. cheaper to replace and safer somewhat.
[14:44:15] <PetefromTn> Just finished installing these bookshelf cabinets in a master bedroom the other day now I am trying to finalize the little details and I am going back over tomorrow to install all the trim and base mold, crown, crown base etc...
[14:44:56] * skunkworks hates trim work...
[14:46:27] <PetefromTn> Yeah me too but it is what pays the bills right now. Plus I have been doing it for almost 20 years so I am pretty good at it. Here is a pic of the unit so far.. Still needs all the trim and doors and pocket doors installed etc...

[14:54:34] <PetefromTn> Thanks man. Nothing too fancy but it will be nice when it is done. I am installing another little piece of cherry in the main opening that will house the dvd/cable box and lift the TV up
[14:55:28] <PetefromTn> aah it is not that bad. That one in the picture the floor goes away from left to right over 3/4 inches... Pretty bad when you are shimming level with 3/4 plywood blocks but whatyagonnado..

[18:50:49] <CaptHindsight> mozmck: yeah, that's the down side of Google and why the devs just ignored my interest in adding a large HD to the Chromebooks, they are told to encourage the use of their cloud
[18:51:23] <mozmck> most people I see are slaves of their little screens - and I think it is rotting their brains too :)
[18:51:39] <cradek> mozmck: I have a "smart" phone from work, and I'm used to it now, but I would be tempted to go without if I had to pay for it.
[18:52:07] <CaptHindsight> just for fun I installed 50 apps to a brand new nexus phone, within 2 weeks it was useless
[18:52:08] <mozmck> Yes, I don't like the cloud stuff for most things either. Especially for all my personal docs etc.
[18:52:47] <CaptHindsight> now I only have 4 that didn't come with the install and they require no access to my phonebook or location
[18:53:10] <mozmck> hah! trying to emulate windows!
[18:53:49] <CaptHindsight> why the hell does a calculator need to access my location and phone numbers?
[18:54:02] <mozmck> yeah - one wonders.
[18:55:54] <CaptHindsight> the phone used to go nuts at 3am and lose 50% of the battery while connected to various ip locations
[18:56:24] <CaptHindsight> like they were just rsycned with it
[18:56:29] <CaptHindsight> or similar
[18:57:16] <jdh> teh google needs to know where you calculate
[18:57:42] <CaptHindsight> location based algebra
[18:58:03] <jdh> needs to know if you want a , or a .
[19:00:21] <CaptHindsight> I'd be happy to pay for apps if they just did what I wanted and not traded my history for use
[19:01:04] <CaptHindsight> but they don't offer that and most people don't seem to care

[21:27:55] <CaptHindsight> how much do they want for it?
[21:28:17] <CaptHindsight> there was one near here that was for sale for months <$2k
[21:28:19] <mozmck> $2500
[21:28:31] <CaptHindsight> good size a decent shape
[21:28:51] <CaptHindsight> where about are you?
[21:29:12] <mozmck> he says it made one aircraft part all it's life. table is 14" x 54"

[21:37:07] <mozmck> hey! you're scared of a haas! :)
[21:37:18] <cradek> but surely $2000 is way too much for a stripped machine

[21:38:07] <jmasseo> god knows how long it'll take to get signed off on it
[21:38:37] <jmasseo> i'm considering playing with the emco on saturday and making sure i understand wtf i'm doing.
[21:38:54] <mozmck> I've got too many machines. I need to scrap or sell a couple lathes and a Doall mill and get a cnc mill set up.
[21:39:33] <jmasseo> what kind of lathes are you trying to offload?
[21:40:05] <mozmck> old, and needing work. I have a logan 14" that needs work.
[21:40:27] <mozmck> another may be spoken for, and I guess that's all for now.
[21:40:36] <MrSunshine> ahh machine painted, and new spindle on it and reassembled .. ripping material with new spindle =)
[21:40:40] <jmasseo> i would like to get a smaller lathe for the house.
[21:40:45] <jmasseo> i'm guessing that mill is a full sized knee mill?
[21:40:51] <MrSunshine> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k16CVVTwMk0&feature :P
[21:40:56] <mozmck> about 6500 lb
[21:41:03] <mozmck> yes
[21:41:22] <jmasseo> wouldn't be a bad idea for the space to have something like that.
[21:42:02] <mozmck> Well, it needs work too. I would sell it for about scrap price to get rid of it.
[21:42:14] <jmasseo> scrap price is like 10 cents a pound.
[21:42:25] <jmasseo> how much work does it need?
[21:42:42] <mozmck> It ran when I got it but had a tick in the head. It has hydraulic power feed that was working.
[21:42:58] <mozmck> I think it might need bearings?
[21:43:30] <uw> "This cnc machine made one part for an aircraft its entire life"
[21:43:45] <uw> sad but so believable

[21:47:27] <mozmck> I forget what all now. It had a variable speed spindle using the variable pulleys, and someone welded them together making it single speed.

[21:48:08] <mozmck> That's the main thing that I know of. I think a new set could be made fairly easily, but it all takes time.
[21:48:18] <Loetmichel> MrSunshine: on my machine i would quadruple the feedrate ;-)
[21:48:25] <jmasseo> i have more time than cash these days.
[21:48:48] <mozmck> It has a threading gear box (which might need work), and I think standard power feed (mechanical)
[21:49:00] <jmasseo> right
[21:49:30] <mozmck> It had a motor reversing mechanism that is worn, and I bought a reversing contactor but never got back to that project.
[21:50:03] <jmasseo> mechanism?
[21:50:06] <jmasseo> is it 3phase?
