[03:50:44] <L84Supper> WalterN: you can use the mill for both
[03:51:21] <L84Supper> 3-axis gantry, just leave enough z-axis movement
[03:51:50] <L84Supper> or mount a laser and galvos on the z-axis
[03:52:21] <WalterN> heh, and use it for laser engraving too
[03:52:26] <L84Supper> or an extrted + nozzle for FDM
[03:52:32] <L84Supper> extruder
[03:52:50] <L84Supper> you can swap lasers
[03:53:18] <L84Supper> UV 405nm for curing photopolymers and IR for sintering or engraving

[14:04:59] <mk0> isn't it?

[14:05:43] <Jymmm> "fluoro" usually isn't at high heat
[14:05:46] <L84Supper> how high a temp range?
[14:05:51] <mk0> maybe. in vocabulary it's a synonym. polytetrafluorethylene
[14:05:59] <Jymmm> Literaly thrown in a fire
[14:06:09] <mk0> об no then
[14:06:24] <mk0> 400 deg C
[14:06:51] <L84Supper> sand cast aluminum within your range of ability or desire?
[14:07:12] <Jymmm> I want to be able to booil water in the SS bottle and route the steam off

[14:07:41] -!- holst has quit [Ping timeout: 255 seconds]
[14:08:16] <L84Supper> make a mold of the cap, max wax mold, sand cast or ask somebody here to machine two for you :)
[14:08:25] <L84Supper> max/make
[14:08:44] <Jymmm> maybe I can just use silicone
[14:08:55] -!- mk0 has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[14:09:07] <Jymmm> I just wanted something a lil more denser
[14:10:15] <L84Supper> http://www.jbweld.com/product/j-b-highheat/ is good to 400 F
[14:10:41] -!- V0idExp has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds]
[14:10:41] <Jymmm> actaully 550F, but not food safe
[14:11:18] <L84Supper> cast or machine something
[14:11:48] <L84Supper> even ceramics
[14:11:59] <Jymmm> I think casting will be simplest, just need to figure out what to cast it in

[14:12:29] <L84Supper> you have the original cap as a mold
[14:12:39] <Jymmm> yep
[14:12:40] <L84Supper> to cast two?
[14:12:50] <Jymmm> to withstand abuse
[14:13:39] <Jymmm> I want to go backpacking and be able to desalinate water
[14:14:39] <L84Supper> I'm pretty sure they sell aluminum bottles with aluminum caps
[14:15:01] <Jymmm> al always taste nasry
[14:15:13] <Jymmm> nasty. That's why i use SS
[14:15:19] <L84Supper> anodize it
[14:15:32] <Jymmm> SS works for me
[14:15:44] <Jymmm> doens't melt when toss in the fire either =)
[14:15:58] <L84Supper> I like you Jymmm
[14:16:06] <L84Supper> you answer your own questions
[14:16:30] <Jymmm> Not yet,
[14:17:46] -!- psha[work] has quit [Quit: Lost terminal]
[14:18:03] <Jymmm> Silicone is food safe and will withstand high temp, but it's not durable to things like nicks and abrasion. What I needed from you L84Supper is some polymer or addistive for solicone to make it more durable to abuse

[14:19:55] <L84Supper> that's the fun of working with these components, the suppliers only like to sell in drums
[14:20:27] <L84Supper> 4-5 or more components in a blend

[14:44:02] <L84Supper> why didn't you just say so?
[14:44:21] <Jymmm> Not gasket, screw cap
[14:44:38] <Jymmm> and I DID SAY! You just didn't listen =)

[14:53:42] <Jymmm> ah
[14:54:32] <skunkworks> he has a cnc and rotory axis - why is he offsetting the crank to make the journals? :)
[14:54:36] <L84Supper> so if you drop your phone in the water, you can just shake it off
[14:54:44] <skunkworks> could all be done with one setup

[18:52:05] <xxoxx> ok. I am thinking about getting one.
[18:53:55] <andypugh> I think their EZ-Trol is linuxCNC with a different GUI, but I could be wrong.

[18:55:34] <WalterN> L84Supper: ah, yeah... herm
[18:56:04] <xxoxx> I only got a C0 baby lathe right now. Thinking about getting a full size one.
[18:56:05] <WalterN> is that sweeping roller thing hard to make correctly?
[18:56:16] <andypugh> xxoxx: I would certainly want to see one in action before spending the money.
[18:56:24] <xxoxx> ok
[18:57:00] <L84Supper> WalterN: not really, if you can make the router you were talking about
[18:57:12] <xxoxx> I see Smithy's adverts in magazines a lot
[18:57:17] <andypugh> I am actualkly more a fan of old machine tools, made when Iron was cheaper.
[18:57:38] <WalterN> L84Supper: how thick typically is the deposited powder thickness?
[18:58:03] <archivist> old iron is so much better :)
[18:58:23] <L84Supper> WalterN:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=88BPmL8cGAo does it a little differently
[18:58:35] <andypugh> The problem is finding something that is nice enough to convert, but not too nice to dismantle :-)
[18:58:40] <xxoxx> I wonder if metal powder sintering is within reach of small shop / hobbyists ?
[18:59:02] <xxoxx> or die casting
[18:59:08] <andypugh> I am sure it is, have you seen the stuff that some hobbyosts do?
[18:59:28] <xxoxx> andypugh, true
[18:59:59] <L84Supper> WalterN: 0.1mm or less, pretty much down to the average particle dia. if you want
[19:00:37] <WalterN> L84Supper: is it typically variable?
[19:00:40] <andypugh> This is looking like a bargain:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Bridgeport-Romi-EZ-Path-CNC-Lathe-/190803529045?pt=UK_Home_Garden_PowerTools_SM&hash=item2c6cc6cd55
[19:01:20] <L84Supper> WalterN: you usually set the z-axis res to the same thickness during a print
[19:01:45] <L84Supper> sice you have to slice the 3d model into layers, what you slice you need to match with on the printer

[20:12:24] <andypugh> L84Supper: Is that a real site, or a penis enlargment thing?
[20:13:33] <Tom_itx> that out of sequence cut may have been when i grouped the tool and resequenced it
[20:13:36] <cradek> a weird combination
[20:13:37] <Tom_itx> i could have missed a path
[20:14:05] <andypugh> It was obvious enough on the Axis preview, so no problem.
[20:14:31] -!- mk0 has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[20:14:35] <Tom_itx> when i do a tool offset and repeat it always generates the paths in reverse order

[21:20:24] <mrsun> yes but those are not for dovetails :P
[21:20:41] <mrsun> but shouldnt the process be the same but i would have to mill the angles on the sides also ?
[21:21:02] <andypugh> Well, I cheated by making the two parts together so that they _had_ to fit.
[21:21:27] <andypugh> Do the existing dovetails have a taper?
[21:21:34] <mrsun> no
[21:21:36] <mrsun> =)
[21:21:50] <andypugh> Well, a tapered gibb won't fit then...
[21:22:05] <andypugh> "folding" gibs might work.
[21:22:13] <mrsun> andypugh, well im modifying :P
[21:22:19] <mrsun> so the dovetail will be tapered
[21:24:09] <andypugh> Good luck with that.
[21:24:22] <mrsun> why ? :)
[21:24:38] <mrsun> shouldnt it only be to put it in at an angle and remill the dovetails =)
[21:24:56] <mrsun> problem is that i know it got carbide in it ... so hss dovetail cutters might not cut it :P
[21:24:59] <mrsun> literaly
[21:25:17] <andypugh> Do you have a dovetail cutter?
[21:25:59] <mrsun> i have but not the right angle but i would order one if i start the project =)
[21:26:04] <mrsun> its 55 degrees on the milling machine
[21:26:09] <mrsun> got 45 and 60 :P
[21:26:15] <andypugh> I guess you could cut one dovetail at an angle, glue in the tapered gib, then machine both dovetails at the same setting to make sure they are exactly parallel. Then scrape a lot.
[21:26:30] <andypugh> Then release the glue with heat.

[23:21:14] <Valen> only 3.2nm though?
[23:21:16] <andypugh> $US 126 shipping too
[23:21:38] <Valen> dmm said they would under value the packing slip so it'll go through customs
[23:21:41] <andypugh> Lots more on there.
[23:22:14] <Valen> I always get worried buying stuff from china
[23:22:26] <skunkworks> logger[psha]:
[23:23:19] <andypugh> Aye. I would be a lot more comfortable with DMM. They have at least been in business for several years.

[23:24:42] <Valen> I'll have to give the local allen bradley and baldour reps a call
[23:24:51] <Valen> I have a feeling i should be sitting down
[23:25:23] <cradek> stupid forum "subscribes" me by default and I always forget to uncheck it
[23:25:26] <andypugh> Maxon too. :-) (maybe lie down)
[23:25:39] <Valen> do maxon go up to that power level?
[23:25:48] <andypugh> Probably not.
[23:25:54] <Valen> 0.72nm i could probably get from them for the same price
[23:26:07] <Valen> they do make nice stuff though
[23:26:29] <andypugh> Maxon go up to 400W
[23:27:44] <andypugh> Servos have low torque relative to steppers. But they have that torque to high speeds, so it is more effective (especially as 5:1 gearing is probably fine)
[23:28:35] <Valen> last time i looked at maxon a 5W motor driver was $250
[23:30:19] <Valen> super helpfull guys there though
[23:30:54] <Valen> got me out of a pickle i was having with a cheap made in china motor
[23:31:00] <Valen> (it ate the brushes)
[23:31:09] <andypugh> They have online pricing. (which is pretty unique). 13mm 6W brushless is CHF162.70. (which is £114)
[23:31:28] <Valen> put the motor on the scope, had about 4v of noise (which was good with a 3v supply)
[23:31:38] <Valen> put the maxon in ~.05v of noise
[23:32:01] <Valen> 167131 EC 60 Ø60 mm, brushless, 400 Watt, CE approved, with Hall sensors 60 mm 400 W 48 V 3100 rpm 830 mNm CHF 1,008.70
[23:32:05] <andypugh> Yes, we used to use them a lot in a previous job. The technical help more than made up for the higher price in 1 to 6 offs like we made.
[23:38:51] <andypugh> I wonder what this is? I am tempted to buy it to find out:

[23:43:11] <Valen> did you see that briefcase mill?
[23:43:26] <DaViruz> soo, an encoder that fits onto a 28mm hollow shaft, any chances of finding one?
[23:43:59] <andypugh> Maybe
[23:44:43] <andypugh> I have a 27mm dia resolver sat on my desk
[23:45:55] -!- ravenlock has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[23:46:04] <DaViruz> i'm thinking a toothed wheel and a reading fork, but i really would prefer a more enclosed solution (that i don't have to build myself)
[23:47:04] <DaViruz> perhaps a toothed belt sprocket and an encoder mounted off to the side. but i suppose i need to take the stresses of the encoder for that
[23:47:50] <DaViruz> http://www.ebay.com/itm/Heidenhain-rotary-encoder-RON-786C-36000-ID-355884-22-/121072941380?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1c30827944

[23:51:35] <DaViruz> oh.
[23:53:05] <DaViruz> interresting, but i don't think i want to fiddle around with it

[23:56:16] <andypugh> Or there is a 20mm OD hollow shaft one that might be easier to mount.
[23:56:57] <DaViruz> i'm not sure what to do with the tiny one
[23:58:12] <andypugh> They have many types, one ought to suit:
http://www.cui.com/Catalog/Components/Encoders/Incremental_Encoders
[23:58:51] <L84Supper> r00t4rd3d: the RTAI main dev just announced it earlier today
[23:59:46] <DaViruz> sure, they have a bunch, i just don't see one that's going to fit over a 28mm shaft
