[00:09:10] <micges> Connor: bit pin or float pin?
[00:09:30] <Connor> number.. so, I'm thinking motion.analog-out
[00:10:57] <micges> Connor: http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/html/gcode/m-code.html#sec:M66-Input-Control
[00:12:46] <Connor> crap
[00:12:50] <Connor> s32 can't be float
[00:13:09] <micges> Connor: M66 E0 L0 ; will read motion.analog-in-00 into param #5399
[00:13:33] <Connor> yea. but the value is coming from a component output the value as s32
[00:14:05] <micges> use conv-s32-float module
[00:14:22] <Connor> yup. on it already

[00:58:42] <Connor> trying to figure out why my do loop is infinate loop when #5399 should be 0 and #5 is too.
[00:58:56] <Connor> PetefromTn_Andro: I'm good.. Doing this in the simulator.. trying to figure the hard part out..
[00:59:06] <Connor> once that's done.. we should be good on other building blocks.

[02:43:12] <Connor> Hello? Anyone care to comment on tool tables and pocket numbers?
[02:43:38] <R2E4> Conner, PEte comingback topnight?
[02:43:46] <Connor> probably not
[02:44:12] <R2E4> ah... Ran m,y first gcode dry..... Everything looks good so far.

[02:46:57] -!- Connor_iPad [Connor_iPad!~connor@75.76.30.113] has joined #linuxcnc
[02:47:27] <Connor_iPad> From what I can tell. The POC field in the tool table isn't used.
[02:49:19] -!- Thetawaves [Thetawaves!~Thetawave@186-51-178-69.gci.net] has joined #linuxcnc
[02:51:51] <Connor_iPad> So, can anyone confirm or deny that?
[02:54:14] <skunkworks> I think it depends on if you are using a random tool changer or not.. (if the tool goes into the same pocket it was taken out of - or the pocket of the new tool)
[02:55:16] <Connor_iPad> So, then POC is only valid if random is turned on?
[02:55:41] <Connor_iPad> Other wise it uses the row number as the pocket?
[02:58:07] <skunkworks> that sounds right... But I only have a limited knowlege of it
[02:58:26] -!- R2E4 has quit [Ping timeout: 265 seconds]
[02:58:37] <Connor> That's kind strange.. I would think it would use the POC field regardless...
[03:01:14] <skunkworks> I think poc is the physical pocket.. (and can change if it is a random tool changer is used)
[03:01:27] <skunkworks> otherwise poc = tool number
[03:01:41] <Connor> No. POC != tool number..
[03:01:45] <Connor> ever.
[03:01:50] <skunkworks> really?
[03:02:14] <Connor> it's the ROW in the tool table.. or the POC # based on that random tool changer value
[03:03:07] <skunkworks> my tool tables all have Poc=tool number
[03:04:39] <Connor_iPad> Strange. Not sure what this means.

[12:37:42] <skunkworks> 3%
[12:38:03] <R2E4> sorry, meant for another window.
[12:38:20] <R2E4> I ran some gcode last night on my machine with no problems.
[12:38:44] <skunkworks> really? you got it tuned decent enough?
[12:38:57] <R2E4> yeah, its good. Really smooth
[12:39:11] <R2E4> I'm ramped up!!!!!
[12:39:13] <skunkworks> Awesome!
[12:39:31] <skunkworks> You definatly put a lot of sweat into it :)
[12:39:51] <R2E4> All these big machines I think you have to.
[12:40:00] <R2E4> I dont see a way around it.
[12:40:20] <R2E4> But I'm learning bigtime every step of the way.
[12:40:27] <skunkworks> sure - you have a retrofitter come in and drop 100K on it ;)
[12:40:53] <R2E4> HUH? Thats what they would charge?
[12:41:10] <skunkworks> heh - no clue.. Just assume..
[12:41:25] <R2E4> 100K, you could get a brand new one.
[12:41:54] <skunkworks> you think you could get a machine that is similar in size for 100K brand new?
[12:42:26] <R2E4> I would think so. not sure.
[12:42:37] * skunkworks doesn't know either
[12:42:37] -!- maximilian_h has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds]
[12:44:08] <R2E4> 800 hours * say 50.00 is 40 G's, Dont think it would cost that much to retrofit. 800 hours is alot of hours for a company that does just that.
[12:45:04] <R2E4> http://www.haascnc.com/vmc_we.asp?sizeID=30_40INCH_VMC#gsc.tab=0
[12:45:41] <JT-Shop> they get more than $50 hr for sure
[12:46:27] <R2E4> For service calls, i agree, but for installation and retrofit, they have to be compettitive.
[12:46:38] <skunkworks> with who? ;)
[12:46:57] <R2E4> yeah, you got a point...lol
[12:47:47] <JT-Shop> competitive is $100 hr most get more than that
[12:48:41] <R2E4> maybe hours is off, 800 hours 100/hr thats 80,000. HAAS vf2 brand new is 59,000.00
[12:48:42] <archivist> "what the market will bare" pricing
[12:49:15] <R2E4> IS there companies out there doing just retrofits and service?
[12:49:29] <JT-Shop> yes
[12:49:32] <R2E4> cause other than here, I dont see much of that happening.
[12:50:22] <JT-Shop> you don't see it from here, I do build/refit machinery for a living
[12:50:56] <R2E4> well.... there you go. thats cool. So I saved a good chucnk of change?
[12:51:05] <JT-Shop> most of my work is in factories and we use industrial stuff
[12:51:14] <skunkworks> R2E4, yes - plus you can fix it...
[12:51:38] <R2E4> hehe, I will know this machine inside and out, thats for sure.
[12:51:52] <JT-Shop> did you really work 20 40hr weeks refitting it?
[12:52:15] <R2E4> LinuxCNC is really cool. It just f%^$king works.

[12:52:24] <JT-Shop> or did you spend most of the time learning the trade?
[12:53:05] <R2E4> no, not really. Your right, if I break it down, it was mostly learning, and figuring out how the machine works and figuring out linux.
[12:54:27] <R2E4> I spent alot of time researching the motors/drives and figuring out they work.

[15:13:37] <somenewguy> its a split brass nut on 1/2 x 20 tpi rods, so I can tighten it up,but the danger of missed stepps comes up
[15:15:33] <archivist> might be better to add another nut with a spring between the two
[15:15:38] -!- george2 has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
[15:16:12] <archivist> you can add compensation for the play you have in linuxcnc
[15:16:40] <somenewguy> oh is that feature nice and relialbe?
[15:16:49] <somenewguy> I knew it existed, just sounded fancy
[15:17:15] <somenewguy> also for th record I have yet to notice any issues with my play, my tolernces aren't that tight, and everything circular I have milled sure looks circular
[15:17:29] <somenewguy> I worry about the slopp causing damage when I am climb milling or whatever
[15:18:17] <JT-Shop> you shouldn't climb mill with a sloppy acme screw axis
[15:18:42] <archivist> depends what you are cutting too
[15:19:01] <somenewguy> so 1.5 thou counts as sloppy? that is the real question here
[15:19:34] <somenewguy> I have no clue what the orders of magntitude are with these things, I am not a machinest, I just pretend when no ones looking
[15:19:35] <archivist> far better than one of my axes :)
[15:20:22] <somenewguy> my machine isn't super rigid, being a desktop mill, so I don't take very aggressive cuts, but I can revert to conventional milling if that is best
[15:21:50] -!- mozmck has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
[15:22:19] <JT-Shop> you probably have a lot more than 0.0015" positional error with an acme screw... you just have to work within the limitations of the machine
[15:22:25] <archivist> for a 6 thou cut per rev 1.5 thou is not too much
[15:23:03] -!- mozmck [mozmck!~moses@67.210.159.209] has joined #linuxcnc
[15:23:13] <somenewguy> its not an acme screw, its 20tpi 1/2inch rod
[15:23:24] <JT-Shop> all thread?
[15:23:43] <somenewguy> no, its too straight to be all thread, factory equipt on a TAIG
[15:23:45] <somenewguy> gimme a sec
[15:24:07] <somenewguy> well i guesss technically yes its all thread
[15:24:15] <somenewguy> just when I think all thread, I think the junk from the hardware store
[15:24:46] <JT-Shop> lol yea there is all thread and there is all thread
[15:25:08] <somenewguy> http://thehobbyistmachineshop.com/Taig/DSC04207.jpg
[15:25:23] <JT-Shop> so basically you have a 1/2" NF threaded rod
[15:25:27] <somenewguy> http://thehobbyistmachineshop.com/Taig/DSC04214.jpg better picture
[15:25:30] <somenewguy> yes
[15:25:43] <somenewguy> never seen such a big fine rod
[15:25:48] <somenewguy> ....I can't belive I just said that
[15:26:36] <somenewguy> so it sounds like .0015 is enough that I should start using software compensation
[15:26:41] <archivist> that is what the actress said to the bishop
[15:26:52] <somenewguy> is that a set-and-forget feature, or do I need to be concious of it when I am using the mill now?
[15:27:02] <somenewguy> I'll start reading about it tonight after work
[15:27:31] <somenewguy> just want to make sure its worth distracting myself lol, so much to and play with, so little time
[15:27:32] <skunkworks_> archivist, do you guys over there actually have vicars and tart parties?
[15:27:40] <archivist> measure now and again and adjust as the nuts wear
[15:27:52] <JT-Shop> if you use backlash compensation read the manual carefully
[15:28:10] <archivist> skunkworks, I have no idea, I am an innocent boy
[15:28:15] <skunkworks_> heh
[15:28:29] <JT-Shop> you can also "map" the screw
[15:29:08] <archivist> the hobbymat has a similar leadscrew, I used it for my Z
[15:31:58] <somenewguy> ok, maybe when it warms up I will map out the screw
[15:32:20] <somenewguy> do you just attach a digital vernieer to the axis and tabulate position data?
[15:32:34] <somenewguy> with "just" in quotes of course
[15:34:21] <archivist> some of the digital verniers are quite good so can be used for that
[15:34:47] <archivist> others are known as guessing sticks
[15:34:53] <somenewguy> haha
[15:35:13] <somenewguy> I compared mine against some real measuring devices and the resolution was impressive
[15:35:18] <somenewguy> but I still don't trust it
[15:35:27] <somenewguy> I assume the accuracy over a range is spotty
[15:35:40] <somenewguy> wayyyyy too cheap for them to be as good as they seem
[15:36:04] <archivist> I have tested mine on blocks, usually within half a thou
[15:36:24] <somenewguy> ok mine are the same, but they are like 10-40 dollar verniers
[15:36:37] <somenewguy> find it kinda hard to believe, even tho they have yet to fail a test against a standard
[15:37:19] <archivist> watch for dirt/burs in the jars and loose gib screws on them
[15:37:44] <somenewguy> will do
[15:38:05] <somenewguy> thankfully I have exactly 1 good mearing device that I can compare all my other discount ones against
[15:40:05] <somenewguy> sunnen bore mic w/ a gauge ring that is +-.0001
[15:40:37] <somenewguy> vs my set of 6 mics that I think I paid 45 bucks for brand new... somehow all the mics are actaully accurate
[15:40:51] <somenewguy> but the gauge/setting blocks they came with are ALL .002 oversize

[23:06:33] <XXCoder> its still too expensive
[23:06:42] <XXCoder> simple method needs fountary
[23:06:43] <Valen> just have a pool of hot steel and use a solenoid or something to cause it to squirt some out
[23:07:00] <XXCoder> theres ones that directly fuse metal but pricing ow
[23:07:17] <Valen> most of the metal ones Ive seen are metal powder + laser
[23:07:24] <Valen> the better ones use electron beam welding
[23:07:34] <Valen> but they always introduce cold metal then add heat
[23:09:21] <XXCoder> well any process that result in model thats either done or needs some simple process to be done is nice

[23:25:08] <andypugh> I worked on an electron-beam welding project once, it’s great.
[23:25:08] <CaptHindsight> inkjets are actually pretty finicky
[23:26:19] <andypugh> The project I was on did 1m (3’) thick welds in a single pass. Just butt two flat plates together, and weld.
[23:26:23] <CaptHindsight> you can jet molten metal from a ceramic nozzle using high pressure nitrogen
[23:26:40] <CaptHindsight> andypugh: nice
[23:28:03] <XXCoder> dang 1m
[23:28:07] <XXCoder> nice.

[23:28:56] <XXCoder> it says one second per part and theres lots parts
[23:29:11] <XXCoder> if it makes 60 parts in 60 second thats one per sec
[23:29:28] <CaptHindsight> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iLndYWw5_y8 metal powder injected into molten metal

[23:31:38] <CaptHindsight> so if you had 1000 machines it would 1 part per mS

[23:32:13] <XXCoder> multi-machine cant be counted as single run
[23:32:34] <CaptHindsight> sure it can

[23:49:37] <cradek> I read a study recently that found strong evidence that the placebo effect works EVEN when you make it clear to the patient they are getting a placebo
[23:50:09] <cradek> I should say: that placebos work
[23:50:18] <XXCoder> yeah placebo effect is all kinds of weird, but it cant do everything
[23:50:34] <XXCoder> no matter how many times it states it would cure cancer, it wont.
