[01:54:03] <Connor> Anyone heard of using a touch probe that doesn't give you the ability to calibrate it for concentrically ? Guy claims you calibrate it via your control software....
[01:57:28] <jdh> seems like that would lack repeatability unless you could ensure spindle orientation each time.
[01:57:40] <Connor> That was my thinking...
[01:58:57] -!- eliezer_ has quit [Quit: Saliendo]
[01:59:44] <jdh> sounds like a cheap whatever.
[01:59:45] <Connor> This one... http://www.performancemotion.com/products.shtml
[02:00:30] <XXCoder1> heh got no idea how that probe works
[02:00:42] <jdh> like all the others
[02:00:43] <XXCoder1> I guess by slowly moving till touch
[02:01:11] <Connor> XXCoder1: That's how they all work.. but, they need to be concentric to the spindle.. or they're useless for edge/center finding.
[02:01:13] <jdh> tilting or pressing the tip breaks continuity
[02:01:45] <XXCoder1> define concetric to spidle - probe axis aligns with spidle axis?>
[02:02:10] <Connor> the tip of the probe is aligned in the X and Y center of the spindle.
[02:02:29] <XXCoder1> ok got it

[02:04:20] <FrankZappa> inspirational quote
[02:04:29] <XXCoder1> yep
[02:04:50] <FrankZappa> unfortunately, sometimes the goal requires people and/or objects.
[02:05:10] <XXCoder1> Anyway related to cnc building. I am thinking on making Z gear and rails box first, so I can think on how to design Y around it, then X around rest
[02:05:14] <FrankZappa> nobody can specialize in everything that they need to, in order to generally innovate.
[02:05:15] <XXCoder1> what you guys think
[02:05:43] <FrankZappa> do you have the tooling?
[02:05:49] <FrankZappa> sorry
[02:05:50] <FrankZappa> the tools
[02:05:56] <FrankZappa> that the z axis will hold?
[02:06:17] <XXCoder1> not yet lol I plan to buy a router first before I even begin of course
[02:06:29] <XXCoder1> I might grab router that has range 8 rpm to 20,000 rpm
[02:06:33] <XXCoder1> errr
[02:06:37] <XXCoder1> 8k to 20k rpm
[02:06:39] <humble_sea_bass> did you draw everything in cad at least
[02:06:49] <humble_sea_bass> measure twice cut once
[02:06:52] <FrankZappa> my opinion is that it's okay to design linearly, as long as you use the best possible foresight. Your method doesn't, because it doesn't start at the start.
[02:07:00] <XXCoder1> humble I did, but then I might change design idea. and yep I know that motto
[02:07:19] <humble_sea_bass> dont lick the table saw blade
[02:07:30] <FrankZappa> 1) what materials do you wish to work on this cnc 2) what tools work them to your satisfaction 3) will this machine be built with plans for enlargement ever
[02:07:31] <XXCoder1> frank yeah I probably will do new cad design first see how well design works
[02:07:34] <FrankZappa> those kinds of things
[02:07:35] <humble_sea_bass> don't write your name on tools when you work at high elevations
[02:07:49] <FrankZappa> start at the start.
[02:08:01] <XXCoder1> I want it to be quite rigid so thinking boxed gantry
[02:08:02] <FrankZappa> otherwise, wait, and keep the whole design fluid until you commit.
[02:08:19] <humble_sea_bass> in practice, you always change things along the way
[02:08:24] <jdh> then buy a chinese 6040
[02:08:24] <FrankZappa> (that was the nature of your question)
[02:08:50] <FrankZappa> humble_sea_bass has my vote.
[02:08:52] <XXCoder1> yeah. before quite nothing was rigid. now lengths are rigid
[02:09:10] <XXCoder1> 300mm for z, 600mm for x and y
[02:09:13] <FrankZappa> XXCoder1 if you're going to box yourself in, USE PLANNING
[02:09:19] <XXCoder1> lol
[02:09:34] <humble_sea_bass> xx, i learned that my OCD wants perfect before i start, but i learn more by going full thoughtful hog and perhaps not having the most optimal design
[02:09:38] <FrankZappa> what mat'ls?
[02:09:50] <XXCoder1> wood and high quality lamated wood
[02:09:56] <XXCoder1> both free so yeah
[02:09:59] <FrankZappa> okay so then what tools will work them?
[02:09:59] <humble_sea_bass> it may cost a bit of money to redo it, but you've learned so much more
[02:10:04] <FrankZappa> Milling bits?
[02:10:07] <XXCoder1> I might do partial metal frame
[02:10:10] <FrankZappa> Reciprocal saws?>
[02:10:16] <FrankZappa> dremel tips?
[02:10:19] <XXCoder1> it'll be cnc router
[02:10:29] <FrankZappa> router bits only?
[02:10:40] <XXCoder1> I plan to start with shitty wood and router bits yes
[02:11:03] <FrankZappa> And those replies won't change in the near future, say 2-3 years?
[02:11:06] <XXCoder1> I need to learn a lot before I get serious and actually buy 8020 and such lol
[02:11:46] <FrankZappa> ...
[02:11:47] <XXCoder1> I made huge progress at training job so 2 weeks later I start basic cnc machinist job lol (no real designing, just load up file and such I guess)
[02:11:56] <humble_sea_bass> you never learn until you fuck up good and proper
[02:12:02] <FrankZappa> false
[02:12:03] <XXCoder1> humble exactly!
[02:12:12] <XXCoder1> thats why I got cheap stuff
[02:12:14] <FrankZappa> Intelligence is learning from your mistakes.
[02:12:20] <XXCoder1> I'm sure I will break stuff and learn
[02:12:23] <FrankZappa> Wisdom is learning from other people's mistakes.
[02:12:40] <FrankZappa> I never had to touch a hot stove to believe mom.
[02:12:48] <XXCoder1> lol
[02:12:54] <FrankZappa> some people have to wipe the paint when they see the sign that it's wet, I guess.
[02:13:08] <XXCoder1> yeah. thankully not me :P
[02:13:39] -!- Connor_iPad [Connor_iPad!~connor@75.76.30.113] has joined #linuxcnc
[02:17:07] <XXCoder1> anyway yeah I'm still missing parts so I cant build it yet
[02:17:18] <XXCoder1> for example I has no ball screw system
[02:17:53] <jdh> chai can fix that
[02:18:11] <XXCoder1> no
[02:18:21] <XXCoder1> MONEY can fix that :P just dont have it yet.
[02:21:50] <FrankZappa> XXCoder1 I was telling you: listen to systems planners who've been there if you're asking people for a path forward
[02:22:12] <XXCoder1> ok
[02:22:13] <FrankZappa> "who've been there, if "
[02:22:20] <FrankZappa> my point is
[02:22:31] <FrankZappa> you don't want to be in a situation where you design and build your z axis
[02:22:33] <FrankZappa> with a holder
[02:22:48] <XXCoder1> it'll be a bit though lol I have money but its still on hold while my biz package travels to customer
[02:22:51] <FrankZappa> and with a certain ability to maintain position
[02:22:56] <XXCoder1> if it somehow gets lost I have to refun.
[02:23:07] <FrankZappa> then later, you decide whoa I would REALLY like to mount that plasma torch in my cnc
[02:23:15] <FrankZappa> and whoops, you can't
[02:23:23] <FrankZappa> because your early-built Z is too dinky
[02:23:35] <FrankZappa> that's what my earlier line of inquiry was designed to assist in avoiding.
[02:23:47] <XXCoder1> my first cnc wouldnt be very flexiable. and quite junky. best just for artwork and such
[02:23:55] <FrankZappa> then build.
[02:23:58] <FrankZappa> go for it.
[02:24:06] <FrankZappa> just use cheap/free shit
[02:24:11] <XXCoder1> when I have more funds and such I'lkl follow tough 8020 design I found online. by then I has most parts
[02:24:12] <FrankZappa> and you won't regret it
[02:24:18] <XXCoder1> indeed.
[02:24:29] <FrankZappa> are you a decent social engineer?
[02:24:38] <XXCoder1> even cheap it'll take me a bit. I has entire electrics and rail system. no ball screw system yet
[02:24:48] <XXCoder1> social engineer - deals with people?
[02:24:51] <FrankZappa> yes
[02:25:04] <XXCoder1> I can, but many people dont care to deal with "that deaf person"
[02:25:10] <FrankZappa> if so, you could scam some parts by just asking for sample components
[02:25:19] <FrankZappa> then design around whatever you can get :)
[02:25:38] <FrankZappa> or do something stupidly labor-intensive
[02:25:42] <FrankZappa> take tons of photos
[02:25:46] <FrankZappa> get your blog popular
[02:25:55] <FrankZappa> then get sponsored to make another one.
[02:26:03] <FrankZappa> that kind of bullshit.
[02:26:11] <XXCoder1> nice idea lol
[02:26:12] <FrankZappa> it's not really conning or bullshit bullshit.
[02:26:23] <FrankZappa> it's just level-1 bullshit.
[02:26:26] <XXCoder1> I just post pics to fb page :P not too fancy

[02:26:50] <FrankZappa> if the mark realizes it, they might say, "eh, he has some gear and is making things."
[02:27:12] <FrankZappa> Anybody reading this know the history of the printed word?
[02:27:16] <FrankZappa> (in the west)
[02:27:35] <FrankZappa> it's fastinating, and relates to you, XXCoder1
[02:27:42] <XXCoder1> got link?
[02:27:44] <FrankZappa> t=c
[02:27:50] <FrankZappa> I'll just type it
[02:28:00] <FrankZappa> So there was Johannes Gutenberg
[02:28:06] <FrankZappa> who invented movable type
[02:28:14] <FrankZappa> which enabled "mass" printing
[02:28:20] <XXCoder1> yeah
[02:28:26] <FrankZappa> of things that had to be "letterset" on press
[02:28:51] <FrankZappa> essentially, Gutenberg was like a machinist-entrepreneur
[02:29:00] <FrankZappa> a merchant who wished to be aristocratic
[02:29:42] <FrankZappa> He wanted to borrow a lot of money to buy fine clothes, housing, food, and drink, from the aristocracy
[02:29:46] <FrankZappa> so he swung some deals and made some impossible promises
[02:29:57] <FrankZappa> the chickens came home to roost on his line of bullshit
[02:30:11] <FrankZappa> so he whipped out the "cast some lead characters and print thme" idea
[02:30:22] <FrankZappa> (them)
[02:30:33] <FrankZappa> he was actually being pursued by his rich backers
[02:30:51] <FrankZappa> not unlike a mobster would pursue a shop owner who hadn't paid the extortion fee
[02:31:07] <FrankZappa> so at the last second, he machined up the first printing press
[02:31:12] <FrankZappa> and debuted it to his creditors
[02:31:20] <FrankZappa> He made a fortune, of course.
[02:31:35] <FrankZappa> the other thing was like alchemy or something, not remembering right now
[02:31:40] <FrankZappa> like transmuting lead to gold
[02:32:18] <XXCoder1> lol that old bullshit
[02:32:23] <FrankZappa> (story over)
[02:32:39] <XXCoder1> in theory you could just knock few elctrons off and make lead gold
[02:32:56] <XXCoder1> but in real world..

[02:36:19] <XXCoder1> ih I'm wrong
[02:36:23] <FrankZappa> only links have been deleted
[02:36:35] <XXCoder1> gold has 3 fewer protons than lead
[02:36:50] <XXCoder1> so just knock 3 protons and you got gold that was lead

[02:38:15] <XXCoder1> I really hope for real and cheap way to convert lead to gold.
[02:38:27] <XXCoder1> gold is FAR more useful than that poisonous metal

[02:40:57] <XXCoder1> not captioned but watching it anyway.
[02:41:57] <XXCoder1> interesting machines.
[02:44:12] <FrankZappa> you can't hear?
[02:44:26] <XXCoder1> yeah. for last 38 years. or all my life lol

[04:33:26] <zeeshan> 34
[04:33:32] <XXCoder1> oh yes
[04:36:17] <XXCoder1> anyway cool
[04:37:56] <zeeshan> i wish i bought a stainless steel coupler
[04:38:00] <zeeshan> instead of the aluminum pos i bought
[04:38:18] <zeeshan> it's supposed to be flexible... but its a little TOO flexible
[04:38:30] <zeeshan> to the point i don't think its going to survive 1200oz of torque
[04:38:35] <zeeshan> if it ever sees it
[04:38:43] <zeeshan> i guess it can act like a fuse :P

[04:38:58] <XXCoder1> if its cheap just run till break
[04:39:02] <zeeshan> yea
[04:39:08] <zeeshan> i like that idea :P
[04:42:57] <Connor_iPad> Use a oldham coupler.
[04:43:19] <zeeshan> i have one
[04:43:30] <zeeshan> but people say they have backlash
[04:43:33] <zeeshan> oh
[04:43:35] <zeeshan> nm its differnt
[04:44:00] <zeeshan> Connor_iPad: can you buy them at different 'torsional shear ratings'
[04:44:09] <zeeshan> so if they detect a certain amount of torque, they snap
[04:44:48] <Connor_iPad> Not sure, but the disc is made of plastic. So they can act as a fuse.

[08:11:38] <Loetmichel> hmm, i just spent 140 eur for parts for a 2*0-30V 0-4A laboratory supply. and there's not even the enclosure and the Volt/amperemeters in it. it seems DIY doesen calculate anymore. the 4mm "banana" plugs from hirschmann alone were 30 eur :-(

[08:16:39] <Loetmichel> you menat: ebay for the parts?
[08:16:45] <Loetmichel> the parts ARE from ebay ;-)

[15:40:32] <MrHindsight> what's usually the problem when a Bridgeport J-head doesn't want to stay in LOW, or for very long, clutch won't stay engaged
[15:43:26] <archivist> what keeps it engaged ?, eg a spring and ball etc
[15:43:49] <archivist> is the fault directional
[15:44:59] <MrHindsight> I think it's slips out in either direction and has difficulty engaging

[17:04:27] <IchGuckLive> XXCoder1: you shoudt first finish a system then think over tuning it
[17:04:35] <XXCoder1> yeah
[17:04:42] <XXCoder1> just curious while I save up
[17:04:59] <MrHindsight> IchGuckLive: solar won't work effectively here since we have more direct sunlight here than most of Germany
[17:05:08] <IchGuckLive> onec more the 400th time on you go cheep and fast first system ,Update on budget
[17:05:29] <XXCoder1> I'm unsure of rail bearing block mechinics though. it has 2 screws on top and side. it seems to tighten bearings
[17:05:38] <XXCoder1> that is correct right?
[17:06:18] <IchGuckLive> MrHindsight: i got a Univerity vaccumer that made the pipes from -2At to -6.5 where the Manufacture is at max -8
[17:06:37] <IchGuckLive> so i got a temp plus on fluid output by about 30deg
[17:06:58] <MrHindsight> XXCoder1: http://www.qbcbearings.com/RFQ/CoverPg/Images/Super-BB-Pillow-Blocks.jpg
[17:06:59] <IchGuckLive> at full sunlight i can get about 320Deg Celsius out of the pipes
[17:07:29] <MrHindsight> XXCoder1: the actual bearings and cages are held inside the block body
[17:07:42] <IchGuckLive> that heads the 5Qm tank up to 110degreCelsius the pressure is bad for all plumbing
[17:07:42] <MrHindsight> how thats done is not standard
[17:08:10] <IchGuckLive> in first summer as there where some days steam out of the shower
[17:08:29] <IchGuckLive> now we got a overpressure vent and a cooling down system
[17:08:36] <IchGuckLive> no direct flow
[17:08:55] <MrHindsight> IchGuckLive: of course, but since most of the US has more sunlight than Germany it won't work here :)
[17:08:55] <IchGuckLive> and a Arduino to controll the sunlight direction

[17:11:26] <MrHindsight> how much power is supplied now from solar in Germany?
[17:11:27] <IchGuckLive> this is enoph foor floor headsystem
[17:11:53] <IchGuckLive> about 16% in total of wind Solar and water
[17:12:13] <IchGuckLive> depends on region its up to 100 and more
[17:12:33] <MrHindsight> that would cut too deeply into the profits of the fossil fuel co's
[17:12:48] <IchGuckLive> they own the most

[20:40:10] <yoshimitsuspeed> I jumped ENA and no change.
[20:40:43] <yoshimitsuspeed> At what point should the motors hold? Will the drivers do it on their own or do they need a signal from the computer?
[20:40:52] <yoshimitsuspeed> My motors show no signs of life.
[20:44:38] <archivist> they should grab as soon as you apply power
[20:44:58] <archivist> make sure you have wired them correctly
[20:46:19] <archivist> do your drives have LEDs to say alive are they red or green
[20:47:32] <yoshimitsuspeed> Red
[20:47:45] <yoshimitsuspeed> On the breakout board should com be ground or 5v?
[20:48:15] <archivist> com is normally gnd
[20:48:16] <yoshimitsuspeed> I'm thinking 5v since the KLs say 5v+ on them
[20:48:42] -!- FrankZappa [FrankZappa!~z@unaffiliated/frankzappa] has joined #linuxcnc
[20:48:46] <yoshimitsuspeed> They say to wire it to pul+ and dir+ though.
[20:49:55] <archivist> use a meter to see what voltage it is at
[20:50:29] <archivist> that is a terrible diagram
[20:51:50] <yoshimitsuspeed> Yeah they don't make it easy
[20:52:07] <yoshimitsuspeed> pul + and dir+ are grounded
[20:52:58] <yoshimitsuspeed> pul- reads nothing, neither ground nor current
[20:53:09] <yoshimitsuspeed> dir- reads 5v
[20:53:33] <archivist> I have a breakout board here that also has a series resistor for the opto in the driver, there is also a resistor in the driver, that meand double the resistance and not enough drive into the opto to make it switch
[20:54:49] <archivist> your two driver pins need to go to 5v most likely not gnd
[20:55:05] <archivist> pul+ and dir+
[20:55:50] <yoshimitsuspeed> That's what I am thinking too. If I jump it to go 5v is there any risk of damaging anything?
[20:56:54] <yoshimitsuspeed> dir- is also reading 5v though.

[21:03:44] <yoshimitsuspeed> So on the breakout board going to the drives pin t has 5v. All the rest are ground. That doesn't seem right does it?
[21:06:07] <archivist> you can switch the opto either up to 5 with the - pin at gnd or on the low side with + to 5v
[21:07:00] <archivist> I had a board here the other day with the red and black swapped for gnd and +5

[21:10:06] <yoshimitsuspeed> I did switch the jumper for 1-9 to 5v instead of ground. They are reading 5v but still no sign of life.
[21:11:04] <archivist> the red LED means the drive thinks you have a fault
[21:11:41] <archivist> did you use a meter to check which coil is which
[21:12:13] -!- Einar1 has quit [Quit: Leaving.]
[21:14:37] <yoshimitsuspeed> No, I just wired it by that diagram. I used all the solid wires and ran the colors by the diagram.
[21:15:05] <yoshimitsuspeed> This should be the right motor but the wire colors aren't all the same as mine.
[21:15:07] <yoshimitsuspeed> http://www.kelinginc.net/KL23H286-20-8B1.pdf
[21:15:37] <yoshimitsuspeed> I have red, blue, green and black.
[21:15:39] <yoshimitsuspeed> Then I have four of the same colors but with stripes.
[21:15:43] <archivist> check with a meter
[21:16:04] <yoshimitsuspeed> What am I looking for?
[21:16:12] <yoshimitsuspeed> Continuity?
[21:16:57] <archivist> yes very low resistance
[21:16:58] <FrankZappa> green with stripes is grounding
[21:17:04] <FrankZappa> usually grounding conductor
[21:17:14] <FrankZappa> at least in the USA
[21:17:16] <archivist> this is motor wire never to be grounded
[21:17:16] <yoshimitsuspeed> You will have to bear with me here. I have build machines like this proffessionally but I am much more familiar with the mechanical design and fabrication side.
[21:19:26] <FrankZappa> white-brown-orange-green are your stripes, I guess
[21:20:27] <FrankZappa> so those are A and B circuits
[21:20:36] <archivist> yoshimitsuspeed, you have 8 lead motors not 4 as in the diagram
[21:20:44] <FrankZappa> 4 plain wires for ACOM, 4 stripes for BCOM
[21:21:00] <archivist> you can series or parallel the coils

[21:21:52] <yoshimitsuspeed> Bagh stupid diagram. I assumed that just meant the other 4 weren't needed.
[21:22:22] <yoshimitsuspeed> What are the pros and cons of parallel and series? Been too long since I read about that.
[21:22:29] <archivist> is there a diagram with the motors
[21:22:51] <yoshimitsuspeed> no
[21:22:52] <FrankZappa> yoshimitsuspeed parallel increases current and keeps voltage same
[21:23:03] <FrankZappa> series increases voltage and keeps amperage same
[21:23:09] <archivist> you only have 9 A so probably have to go series
[21:23:31] <yoshimitsuspeed> Okay.
[21:24:05] <yoshimitsuspeed> That diagram above is all I have found for the motors. Were you looking for more than that?
[21:24:12] <archivist> yes
[21:24:33] <archivist> that diagram is for the break out
[21:24:50] <yoshimitsuspeed> no this one
[21:24:54] <yoshimitsuspeed> http://www.kelinginc.net/KL23H286-20-8B.pdf
[21:25:07] <yoshimitsuspeed> And this one
[21:25:11] <yoshimitsuspeed> http://www.kelinginc.net/KL23H286-20-8B1.pdf
[21:26:22] <archivist> try bipolar series connection, wont be as fast as bipolar parallel
[21:27:32] <yoshimitsuspeed> Okay
[21:27:51] <yoshimitsuspeed> looks like I have some wiring to. I'll do one and repo back.
[21:28:03] <archivist> note both those diags have different colours
[21:28:42] * archivist has met chinese "consistency" before
[21:30:09] <yoshimitsuspeed> Lol yeah, just noticed. Fortunately one has the same colors as my motor so we will hope it's right hehe.
[21:31:11] <archivist> like I said, check with a meter
[21:34:35] <yoshimitsuspeed> They all show continuity of varying degrees. The solids show about .6 to 1 m
[21:34:37] <yoshimitsuspeed> Solid black to the stripes reads all over the place.
[21:35:00] <yoshimitsuspeed> What exactly do I need to figure out with this test? What am I looking for?
[21:35:54] <archivist> a very low resistance (do this when not wired to the drives
[21:36:24] <yoshimitsuspeed> Yeah it's disconnected completely now.
[21:36:29] <archivist> that the colours match one of the motor diagrams

[21:37:41] -!- MattyMatt has quit [Ping timeout: 276 seconds]
[21:37:42] <FrankZappa> the stripes shouldn't show any continuity to the solids
[21:37:46] <FrankZappa> I thought, at least.
[21:37:59] <FrankZappa> depends on how it's wired & protected
[21:38:13] <FrankZappa> but those two strings are acting independently on the motor.
[21:38:15] <yoshimitsuspeed> The solid to the matching color stripe reads 3.2 ohm
[21:38:27] <archivist> FrankZappa, look at the diags before you say stuff
[21:38:38] -!- jduhls has quit [Ping timeout: 258 seconds]
[21:38:53] <archivist> yoshimitsuspeed, as per the diagram
[21:39:05] <FrankZappa> why not disable one COM string and meter then?
[21:39:19] <archivist> in http://www.kelinginc.net/KL23H286-20-8B.pdf
[21:40:05] <yoshimitsuspeed> Yeah that's the one I am going off of.
[21:40:24] <FrankZappa> oh, that's very different
[21:40:50] <yoshimitsuspeed> Red to R/W reads 3.2 ohm As to all the solids to their respective stripes. Does this sound right?
[21:40:56] <FrankZappa> so, what's the issue? gear not working, or doesn't power up?
[21:40:58] <archivist> yes
[21:41:24] <archivist> FrankZappa, please read the scoll back
[21:41:28] <archivist> scroll
[21:41:45] <FrankZappa> k sorry for interrupting
[21:41:59] <yoshimitsuspeed> Okay so I should just wire it per the diagram.
[21:42:05] <archivist> yes

[21:43:02] <FrankZappa> that's what it looks like based on your meter reporting.
[21:43:16] <FrankZappa> that's the only config where the like colors + stripes are on same strings
[21:43:17] <yoshimitsuspeed> okay
[21:43:28] <archivist> not best but probably ok for 4 motors on that supply
[21:46:45] <archivist> do not leave the supply on the bench with the motors running and the bench vibrating a lot, I had a little phut here and the smoke got out, one of the heatsinks came unscrewed internally

[21:56:54] <FrankZappa> yoshimitsuspeed the other wire meterings reported 0/inf/NC, right?
[21:57:20] <FrankZappa> you only got resistance from a color + its stripe, right?
[21:58:45] <yoshimitsuspeed> I got some resistance between all I tested. Solid to solid was about .8 m for example.
[21:59:22] <yoshimitsuspeed> Solid to stripe were about 3.2 ohm

[22:11:24] <FrankZappa> in my experience
[22:11:34] <FrankZappa> having differently sized drawers is great.
[22:11:36] <MrHindsight> http://olimex.wordpress.com/2014/05/14/rk3188-som-quad-core-cortex-a9-running-at-1-6ghz-system-on-module-first-prototypes-work-fine/ similar to BBB prices but with 4 faster cores and decent GPU
[22:11:51] <FrankZappa> a heavy-duty industrial bin-type filing cabinet is good for bigger stuff, like long calipers etc
[22:12:09] <FrankZappa> but those felt-bottomed shelves are the tits for smaller tools.
[22:12:29] <FrankZappa> they often have tray-type addon organizers for the top of the shelf too, as a 2-pc thing
[22:12:45] <Connor> FrankZappa: Not a drawer, a shelf.. under the chip tray. for tool holders, 123 blocks etc.. my draw will be for sensitive stuff and end mills not in holders..
[22:13:25] <FrankZappa> ah ok
[22:13:34] <FrankZappa> I'll let the more experienced ppl here speak to that

[22:27:38] <yoshimitsuspeed> Okay a few new questions. Is the motor supposed to get hot? If so what is safe? I don't remember them getting this hot on the big machines I used to work on. Got to about 50C then I turned it off.
[22:28:12] <FrankZappa> you could rewire in series
[22:28:17] <archivist> 50 deg c is safe, the machine cools it when bolted on
