[02:24:43] <MacGalempsy> bobo_: no wrong as in negative logic instead of positive logic
[02:25:44] <bobo_> bummer bummer bummer
[02:26:08] <MacGalempsy> anyways, now that I know there is an electrical store down the street that has an EE sitting behind the counter, I wont be buying parts off the internet anymore!
[02:26:11] <Tom_itx> so change your pins in hal
[02:26:24] <MacGalempsy> bobo_: its part of the learning process!
[02:26:30] <Tom_itx> MacGalempsy ^^
[02:26:59] <MacGalempsy> Tom_itx: the MESA 7177 only has positive outs
[02:27:18] <MacGalempsy> they had the relays, but not the bases
[02:27:35] <MacGalempsy> so 2 days isnt so bad. it gives me some time to work on cleaning up the wiring clutter
[02:27:36] <bobo_> Question might be --why is a EE behind the counter ?
[02:27:50] <Tom_itx> you can't switch the wires on the relay??

[02:35:03] <MacGalempsy> this will be perfect for making a small EDM!
[02:35:37] <Tom_itx> or knockin yourself on your butt
[02:36:05] <MacGalempsy> hehe! part of the build will be a wooden floor

[02:45:48] <MacGalempsy> what is the recipe?
[02:46:15] <XXCoder1> hey wolf
[02:46:15] <MacGalempsy> all our snow melted this morning (after salting the driveway at 0400)
[02:46:43] <PetefromTn_> I dunno it has four cups pure WHITE snow, a cup of condensed milk, 1/4 cup sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla, and some other stuff....
[02:47:15] <MacGalempsy> oh, that doesnt sound too bad

[02:51:00] <MacGalempsy> looks like you sprinkled it on the shrimp
[02:51:17] <PetefromTn_> no thats pecorino romano hehe
[02:51:38] <PetefromTn_> and no we don't have any cheesecake which is something of a capital crime if you ask me...
[02:51:49] <PetefromTn_> so the snow cream is gonna have to do.
[02:55:26] <furrywolf> got my chinese test indicator in the mail... seems to work acceptably.
[02:56:17] <bobo_> indicator of what ?
[02:56:52] <furrywolf> of movement?
[02:57:33] <furrywolf> a dial indicator with a little lever on the bottom making it a flippy thingy instead of a pushy thingy.
[02:57:53] <bobo_> Oh -----good
[02:58:11] <furrywolf> need to square my mill... but that'll probably get put off for a while now.
[02:58:23] <XXCoder1> cool
[02:58:32] <XXCoder1> sigh really need to get my cnc rolling lol
[02:58:37] <XXCoder1> stalled for over year now
[02:59:09] * furrywolf bolts XXCoder1's walk/stop sign to it, and sets it to "walk", to see if that gets him out of "stop".
[02:59:18] <XXCoder1> lol
[02:59:29] <XXCoder1> that would be funny use
[02:59:36] <XXCoder1> if I had big cnc mill I would use it
[02:59:49] <XXCoder1> walk for running and stop for finished/problem

[03:00:22] <MacGalempsy> that can be a problem
[03:00:38] <XXCoder1> MacGalempsy: Im also not sure how to build it
[03:00:44] <XXCoder1> and willpower lacking
[03:01:01] <MacGalempsy> haha, you just dont hate your day-to-day job enough!
[03:01:02] <XXCoder1> also too busy fixing cars, my car is fine now but van is having couple major issues with egr and iaxc
[03:01:39] <XXCoder1> need that type of dial indictor
[03:01:41] <XXCoder1> maybe later
[03:01:42] <furrywolf> you haven't fixed the egr yet?
[03:01:47] <XXCoder1> it is fixed in car
[03:01:53] <XXCoder1> van also has same issue
[03:02:00] <furrywolf> what was it on the car?
[03:02:17] * furrywolf always wants to know what the problem turned out to be, to use as a data point for future repairs
[03:02:18] <XXCoder1> the holes near trottle block was completely blocked
[03:02:23] <XXCoder1> carbomn
[03:02:24] <jdh> got pedals?
[03:02:30] <jdh> <urk>
[03:02:37] <furrywolf> XXCoder1: as I said, 90% of the time it's a coked up line. lol
[03:02:38] <XXCoder1> I made internal tube inside manfold very clean
[03:02:54] <XXCoder1> and it passed stall test!
[03:02:56] <XXCoder1> finally.
[03:03:05] <furrywolf> stalled when you applied vacuum to the valve?
[03:03:10] <XXCoder1> easy to do, just connect egr vaccum line to vaccum source
[03:03:14] <XXCoder1> boom barely could run
[03:03:19] <furrywolf> yep :)
[03:03:28] <XXCoder1> I tried directly making vaccum myself, could make it stall a little
[03:03:48] <furrywolf> easiest way to determine if the problem is in the egr flow path, or in the controls/sensors.
[03:03:52] <XXCoder1> I need to do same test on van before I try remove trottle (basically same design)
[03:04:13] * furrywolf has fixed too many cars
[03:04:38] <XXCoder1> hmm lemme try now brb

[03:19:51] * furrywolf can!
[03:19:59] <furrywolf> they're links to an annoying image hosting service.
[03:20:06] <zeeshan> haha
[03:21:05] <furrywolf> it's your blue part, magnified.
[03:21:20] <zeeshan> yessir
[03:21:26] <zeeshan> that thing has some serious angles in it
[03:21:28] <bobo_> one i have is tan
[03:21:37] <XXCoder1> furrywolf: hey
[03:21:46] <XXCoder1> well dunno result on this test
[03:21:57] <XXCoder1> I disconnected vacuum source and connected egr to it
[03:22:20] <furrywolf> hey hey my my rock and roll etc? P
[03:22:23] <XXCoder1> it didn't stall but later when I just left source disconnected it stalls a little I guess because it needs vacuum to run stuff
[03:22:44] <furrywolf> no, it's because you're creating a vacuum leak.
[03:22:46] <XXCoder1> there is no other source of vacuum, ford cougar was easier because it had source with 3 connectors so I could skip one
[03:23:06] <XXCoder1> I could not suck hard enough to do anything
[03:23:22] <furrywolf> when you let it suck air in, the air doesn't go through the mass airflow sensor (or carb, if you have an old car), and doesn't result in any fuel being added to go with the air, causing it to lean and run rough.
[03:23:24] <XXCoder1> so either it failed or I suck on suckoing lol
[03:23:42] <XXCoder1> furrywolf: it ran fine with egr connected to vacuum though
[03:23:43] <furrywolf> I'd say the test failed, and you probably have another plugged line or passageway.
[03:23:47] <XXCoder1> yeah
[03:24:00] <furrywolf> right. the egr valve is sealed - once the valve moves, it doesn't suck any additional air in.
[03:24:07] <furrywolf> but with the line just open, it sucks air in continually.
[03:24:18] <furrywolf> the vacuum side is just a diaphragm
[03:24:38] <XXCoder1> it stuck to vacumm source just fine, so line could hold vacuum
[03:24:43] <XXCoder1> so egr is fine just clogged stuff
[03:25:01] <XXCoder1> it wasnt fastened to vacuum source, its too small hose to bigger connector
[03:25:10] <furrywolf> most likely a clog, could also be a bad valve. clogs are more common.
[03:25:30] <XXCoder1> yeah plan to clean it out when has time and car fueled up

[03:42:14] <zeeshan> whats a mile

[03:42:32] <zeeshan> a mile is 6336000 thousands
[03:42:33] <furrywolf> why do you need an accurate model of the cam? I thought you were only making a new cylinder...
[03:42:43] <zeeshan> furrywolf: want to fully simulate
[03:42:45] <zeeshan> before making
[03:43:00] <furrywolf> zeeshan: you lost a decimal somewhere
[03:43:01] <zeeshan> perhpas moving the cam to a seperate unit and using a standard single acting hydraulic cylinder
[03:43:07] <zeeshan> did i
[03:43:10] <zeeshan> whoops i did

[04:44:50] <zeeshan> its an inside joke for me
[04:44:50] <furrywolf> zeeshan: it's like how crystals help channel cosmic energy to boost your chi and make your bong work better.
[04:44:59] <zeeshan> i used to do some trolling on test papers
[04:45:18] <zeeshan> e= 1/2 mv^2
[04:45:24] <zeeshan> in the beginning of the paper i'd write
[04:45:27] <zeeshan> "let v = c"
[04:45:40] <zeeshan> then i'd write 2e = mc^2
[04:45:48] <zeeshan> troll
[04:46:07] <zeeshan> give me chi
[04:46:10] <zeeshan> to make a new hydraulic cylinder
[04:47:16] <furrywolf> it's, like, the crystals create a focal point for the cosmic energy that, like, makes the plants grow and, like, helps channel that energy directly into your chi and, like, gives you a positive aura and helps, like, relax you and improve your positive thinking, and... fucking it. I can't keep pretending to be that brain-damaged. I've met way too many people like that.
[04:47:35] <XXCoder2> yeah
[04:47:45] <XXCoder2> not common around here but yeah met a few

[04:50:19] <MacGalempsy> PetefromTn_: I agree.
[04:50:28] <XXCoder2> My view is simple. people can belive whatever as long as its stoved down my throat
[04:50:36] <MacGalempsy> as long as one finds inner peace, its all good!
[04:50:46] <XXCoder2> "Religion is like a penis. It's fine to have one and it's fine to be proud of it, but please don't whip it out in public and start waving it around... and PLEASE don't try to shove it down my child's throat. "
[04:50:46] <zeeshan> im religious
[04:50:47] <zeeshan> becareful
[04:51:00] <furrywolf> lol
[04:51:07] <XXCoder2> zee sorry not being careful anytime soon
[04:51:36] * furrywolf will need to remember that quote
[04:51:36] <zeeshan> just like you don't like religious people's views
[04:51:41] <zeeshan> they dont like yours.
[04:51:48] <zeeshan> so please don't shove it in my childs face either
[04:51:49] <zeeshan> thank u
[04:51:52] <XXCoder2> I got no issue with that
[04:52:00] <MacGalempsy> im religious too, whats so bad about being a believer?
[04:52:17] <PetefromTn_> XXCoder2 have you ever traveled outside your native country?
[04:52:24] <XXCoder2> zeeshan: its not fair if it does not go both ways
[04:52:30] <zeeshan> yea!
[04:52:33] <zeeshan> neutrality is best
[04:52:46] <zeeshan> religious is a very personal thing
[04:52:53] <XXCoder2> I wish its true for everyone
[04:53:03] <zeeshan> anti-religion seems personal too
[04:53:08] <XXCoder2> notice I never say anything
[04:53:13] <furrywolf> except somehow way too many laws are based on religion
[04:53:22] <zeeshan> like what furrywolf?
[04:53:24] <XXCoder2> and im one of more miliant atheists out there
[04:53:33] <XXCoder2> but I keep it personal

[04:54:24] <zeeshan> its their business
[04:54:30] <zeeshan> my problem with gays is
[04:54:45] <zeeshan> for some reason a lot of them feel the need to be super affectionate in front of others
[04:54:49] <XXCoder2> ah ah careful with "them"
[04:54:54] <MacGalempsy> some religions like Christianity and Islam say spreading the word is the responsible part of the religion. so how can you blame people for "whipping it out"?
[04:55:00] <XXCoder2> not everyone is same if member of same group
[04:55:50] <MacGalempsy> anyways before we get into religion too much. anyone got any EDM advice? lol

[04:56:00] <zeeshan> they are bad ass
[04:56:02] <XXCoder2> yeah wear lot of rubbers

[04:56:04] <zeeshan> *tap
[04:56:04] * furrywolf will be much happier when religion is finally eliminated
[04:56:14] <zeeshan> religion keeps growing
[04:56:19] <XXCoder2> furrywolf: sure for a minute then theres new stuff
[04:56:24] <zeeshan> at a faster rate than athiesm
[04:56:26] <PetefromTn_> LOL Good luck with that...
[04:56:29] <zeeshan> so i dont think that's going to happen anytime soon
[04:56:29] <MacGalempsy> the taper would just be the electrode, or like a 5axis?
[04:56:32] <XXCoder2> we will always have problems
[04:56:43] <zeeshan> MacGalempsy: was a typo
[04:56:46] <zeeshan> i meant tap
[04:57:08] <MacGalempsy> lol. that website I posted has a board for that kind, they call it a R/C EDM
[04:57:29] <PetefromTn_> you mean a sink edm?
[04:57:34] <zeeshan> well edm isn't really something fancy
[04:57:43] <zeeshan> its just puled high voltage dc
[04:57:44] <MacGalempsy> the R/C is the power type
[04:57:45] <zeeshan> pulsed
[04:57:48] <zeeshan> but high amperage
[04:57:51] <MacGalempsy> Resistor/ Capacitor
[04:57:52] <zeeshan> wait sorry,
[04:57:56] <zeeshan> low voltage, high amperage
[04:58:00] <furrywolf> zeeshan: fortunately, the percentage of religious people drops every year
[04:58:14] <zeeshan> furrywolf: hate religion all you want
[04:58:15] <MacGalempsy> furrywolf: is that really a fortunate thing?
[04:58:26] <furrywolf> religion is rather unpopular when people are given a choice, and the efforts to try to get it out of schools are starting to work.
[04:58:28] <zeeshan> i can sense MacGalempsy and pete have faith
[04:58:32] <zeeshan> i will stick with my brothers :)
[04:58:35] <furrywolf> MacGalempsy: yes
[04:59:02] <zeeshan> i have a choice
[04:59:04] <zeeshan> i choose to be religious
[04:59:10] <PetefromTn_> In my view Religion and Culture walk hand in hand and wish all you want but they will ALWAYS be a part of the human equation...
[04:59:14] <MacGalempsy> most studies show religious people have the best outlooks on life
[04:59:49] <zeeshan> we will all find out the truth one day

[05:00:04] <furrywolf> yes, because if you're completely delusional already, it helps you imagine everything else is all well and good too.
[05:00:16] <zeeshan> furrywolf: the problem with human beings is they think they know everything
[05:00:39] <MacGalempsy> not really delusional, but whats the worst thin that happens? I die and there is nothing? its a state of mind
[05:00:57] <XXCoder2> You're talking about thT P something wager
[05:01:09] <XXCoder2> pascal wager?
[05:01:19] <furrywolf> zeeshan: no, the problem with RELIGIOUS ones is they think they know everything, because they have faith in what they've been told.
[05:01:44] <zeeshan> the creator's message cannot be refuted
[05:01:53] <furrywolf> notice how every time there's more evidence something they believe is utterly wrong, they try to create excuses for it. remember, god put the dinosaur bones in the ground just to test you.
[05:02:03] <zeeshan> can you disprove religion?
[05:02:11] <zeeshan> you're gonna throw the theory of evolution at me?
[05:02:43] <zeeshan> i think religion has been distorted over time
[05:02:55] <zeeshan> it's like passing a message in a circle
[05:03:05] <zeeshan> it changes its meaning at the end
[05:03:09] <zeeshan> but the point is, the message was delivered
[05:03:16] <zeeshan> how you want to percieve it now is up to you
[05:03:21] <zeeshan> some choose to kill others
[05:03:25] <XXCoder2> zeeshan: thats why my view is that any claims without evidence can be dismissed without evidence
[05:03:26] <furrywolf> can you disprove evolution?
[05:03:37] <zeeshan> hell no

[05:04:15] <furrywolf> here's my theory: our planet was created by Dog. He drooled, and the oceans were formed. He scratched his fur, and all life fell out of it. You don't want to know where the mountains came from. Prove it wrong.
[05:04:27] <zeeshan> furrywolf: that is perfectly fine
[05:04:33] <zeeshan> if you really believe that
[05:04:34] <MacGalempsy> I think that goes back to the changing message. I mean when certain religious texts were written the understanding of the world was very different
[05:04:42] <zeeshan> then that's upto you
[05:04:43] <PetefromTn_> honestly furrywolf and XXcoder2 I am glad that you have the right to choose to not believe in anything that is a wonderful thing to have that right. What REALLY bothers me is the attitude you appear to have about it. Just because you choose to not believe in anything does not mean you are smarter or wiser than those who do. Your Attitude is disturbing at best.

[05:05:33] <XXCoder2> PetefromTn_: point mine out
[05:05:38] <MacGalempsy> G-code = Godcode
[05:05:48] <zeeshan> furrywolf: do you really think
[05:05:52] <zeeshan> we can understand everything around us?
[05:06:04] <XXCoder2> That's what science is for
[05:06:05] <zeeshan> we can't even visualize 4d
[05:06:16] <zeeshan> science tries to prove things yea
[05:06:21] <furrywolf> nope. I do, however, rather strongly think that the answer isn't to make crap up, and even worse, stick to that crap in face of better ideas.
[05:06:24] <zeeshan> and comes up with laws that predict certain behaviours
[05:06:26] <XXCoder2> zeeshan: its all about discovery
[05:06:38] <zeeshan> but do you really think we're capable of understanding erverything?
[05:06:41] <XXCoder2> and easiest person to fool you? yourself.
[05:06:45] <zeeshan> if you with suskind's lectures
[05:06:59] <zeeshan> he comes to a point where he's like "some things are beyond our understanding"
[05:07:02] <XXCoder2> zeeshan: we did not understand how orbits worked back then. we do now
[05:07:09] <XXCoder2> knowledge marches on
[05:07:13] <zeeshan> dude
[05:07:16] <zeeshan> those things are a joke
[05:07:20] <furrywolf> if no one knows something, the answer is that no one knows it. the answer isn't to make up some story about imaginary all-powerful beings who made it that way.
[05:07:25] <zeeshan> we can figure it out
[05:07:27] <zeeshan> like isaid
[05:07:29] <XXCoder2> we build on previous knowledge and reject wrong notions. that is all
[05:07:38] <XXCoder2> I know I have been wrong many times
[05:07:39] <zeeshan> we can never ever see 4 dimensionally
[05:07:41] <zeeshan> if we tried.
[05:07:45] <zeeshan> we were born in a 3D world
[05:07:46] <XXCoder2> more times than I care to admit
[05:07:52] <zeeshan> shit we even have to represent 1d and 2d
[05:07:54] <zeeshan> in a 3d perspective
[05:07:56] <zeeshan> to understand it
[05:08:06] <zeeshan> can you imagine a line by itself?
[05:08:11] <XXCoder2> zeeshan: there is notions that universe really is 12D
[05:08:15] <zeeshan> almost everyone has to join 2 dots in space
[05:08:23] <zeeshan> to come up with a 2d line
[05:08:31] <XXCoder2> (time is seperate, that is why we say 3 + 1 dimension)
[05:08:31] <zeeshan> yea string theory says that
[05:08:34] <MacGalempsy> furrywolf: I think if you look at modern science, and some of the explainations of how processes work, you would find the same thing. people made up storys (hypotheses) to explain a phenomenon
[05:08:45] <zeeshan> einsteins didnt thingso.
[05:08:48] <zeeshan> he called it spacetime.
[05:08:52] <zeeshan> they go hand in hand
[05:08:54] <zeeshan> which is why we have gravity
[05:09:03] <XXCoder2> zeeshan: well I hope it leads to cheat on speed limit of light speed, we really need ftl travel.
[05:09:12] <MacGalempsy> evenutally after testing those hypotheses particular ones were disproved and others were accepted.
[05:09:16] <furrywolf> MacGalempsy: but scientists are more than happy to change their opinions when better theories come along, while religiousists stick to the same crap no matter what happens.
[05:09:22] <zeeshan> i don't think he's unreasonable to think that there are things beyond our abilities

[05:09:38] <XXCoder2> furrywolf: relious people that can accept change is fine to me
[05:09:47] <MacGalempsy> with religion, it is similar, but the problem is so complex that no one can solve it, so we just do the best we can
[05:09:53] <XXCoder2> (bit of irony) evolution of religion.
[05:10:27] <XXCoder2> MacGalempsy: I have a problem when religion tells person to supress other people rights.
[05:10:28] <PetefromTn_> as Zeeshan said earlier Religion is a very personal thing. If you choose to believe whatever it is you believe that is your choice and you can either choose to respect the person for that choice or call him or her names and show animosity towards them both of which only proves to show your own inadequacy.
[05:10:34] <XXCoder2> women seem to have it down hard.
[05:10:35] <MacGalempsy> the underlying factor is that something (God) put this all in motion, and we want to worship that
[05:10:40] <furrywolf> religion is very against evolution of religion... every time a religion tries to evolve, it's historically resulted in bloodshed, because religion is all about not thinking...

[05:12:41] <XXCoder2> zeeshan: you're cool man :)
[05:12:52] <MacGalempsy> so one part of religion is obvious how things came to be, but the other part is that it was around before organized governance, so it can fundamentaly be a control technique
[05:12:58] <zeeshan> this is the best chatroom in the world
[05:13:09] <zeeshan> so glad i found it :d
[05:13:13] <XXCoder2> yeah

[05:14:11] <MacGalempsy> zeeshan: we have 4 dogs. come get one
[05:14:12] <XXCoder2> sometimes I think and add stuff man
[05:14:12] <PetefromTn_> the reality is that those that believe in whatever their religion is are going to do it whether you like it or not. anything you do that you think will change that is futile at best. The ONLY real answer in the world to change the wars and killing related to religion is for people to become accepting of others beliefs. Unfortunatley for some religions this goes against thier beliefs.
[05:14:25] <MacGalempsy> if you dont like it, bring it back
[05:14:27] <zeeshan> MacGalempsy: you show up at like 3am

[05:15:03] <zeeshan> no matter how much of a dick you are to them
[05:15:05] <furrywolf> PetefromTn_: which is why we need to eliminate religion from schools and anywhere else young people might be exposed to it, so we can save their minds before it's too late to change them.

[05:16:36] <MacGalempsy> how can one promise to not be offended?

[05:16:44] <PetefromTn_> sure it is...
[05:17:08] <furrywolf> why can't we have a change to a culture based on thinking, compassion, exploration, and love of your fellow people?
[05:17:10] <XXCoder2> MacGalempsy: what it means is that get offended but accept and move on

[05:18:03] <MacGalempsy> XXCoder2: lol. fair enough, I guess
[05:18:03] <zeeshan> it was different
[05:18:08] <PetefromTn_> yes it is.. and so much beauty has been lost.
[05:18:10] <XXCoder2> PetefromTn_: yeah there is one and only one human constant
[05:18:15] <XXCoder2> PetefromTn_: change.
[05:18:23] <PetefromTn_> disagree
[05:18:24] <XXCoder2> everything will change but change itself

[05:23:40] <furrywolf> PetefromTn_: it'll be so horrible when people use their brains, don't kill each other for no reason, try to advance our understanding of the world, and love each other... gah, the horror.
[05:23:45] <furrywolf> bbl
[05:23:46] <XXCoder2> change. the constant. PetefromTn_ that is why I don't push atheism to everyone. either it blooms or it dies out. so be it.
[05:24:04] <PetefromTn_> just because technology and innovation flourishes does not mean culture and religion must be layed by the wayside. In Fact I think that it is an integral part of the future and hopefully we can bring the most beautiful and colorful traditions and rituals along for the ride.

[05:49:35] <PetefromTn_> my wife brought home some magazines from work they laid out for patients to read. Several of them are Machine Design.com. Very cool stuff...
[05:51:52] <bobo_> pete did you see that hyd hold down --you-tube ?---for when vacume table is not enough
[05:52:06] <PetefromTn_> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WUh6jVNX9c Massive Attack..
[05:52:18] <PetefromTn_> yeah I did. Looks expensive heh

[05:53:14] <PetefromTn_> I am talking about building something shop made that uses the vacuum clamping with some ground location pins for pallet changing as well as vacuum clamping in general. Basically a poor mans version of the mitee bite 300 series..
[05:53:32] <bobo_> make your own ---- use harbor f air over hyd
[05:54:25] <bobo_> air over hyd pump
[05:54:45] <PetefromTn_> what does that air/hydro pump give you?
[05:56:06] <bobo_> air pressure pumping oil cyl for higher pressure
[05:56:57] <bobo_> higher oil pressure
[05:57:29] <PetefromTn_> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQD2oxtw5jk This is basically what I am after...just cheaper hehe
[05:58:42] <Jymmm> PetefromTn_: put on your fishnets...
[05:58:56] <PetefromTn_> ?
[06:00:40] <MacGalempsy> PetefromTn_: why dont you just make one?
[06:00:59] <PetefromTn_> I would but right now I can't afford the damn materials LOL
[06:01:18] <zeeshan> bobo
[06:01:18] <PetefromTn_> would need a couple hundred bucks worth of fortal plate.

[06:03:03] <zeeshan> i want their clamps
[06:03:05] <zeeshan> that grab from the sides
[06:04:26] <zeeshan> has anyone looked at
[06:04:37] <zeeshan> how to correlate servo motor current

[06:15:23] <MacGalempsy> that was a great impression
[06:16:47] <zeeshan> shes good
[06:16:51] <PetefromTn_> yeah I know right. She is pretty damn talented.
[06:17:27] <MacGalempsy> she looks more endowed
[06:17:29] <MacGalempsy> than usual
[06:17:43] <PetefromTn_> there is that too...
[06:18:12] <zeeshan> guys always go for the boobies
[06:18:28] <PetefromTn_> actually I am more of a leg man...
[06:18:33] <zeeshan> lol
[06:18:35] <PetefromTn_> ;)
[06:18:51] <MacGalempsy> haha.
[06:19:24] <MacGalempsy> this whole DIY EDM thing has got my mind racing around
[06:20:11] <PetefromTn_> there was a project awhile ago on the home machinist forum where folks were building a simple sink edm machine I am sure you could find it with a google search pretty easily.
[06:20:33] <PetefromTn_> or maybe it was in the Home machinist magazine?
[06:20:43] <MacGalempsy> it looks like a mill with a differnt head
[06:20:50] <MacGalempsy> and a tank
[06:20:51] <zeeshan> http://www.kistler.com/fileadmin/user_upload/products/media/933-971_web.png
[06:20:55] <zeeshan> how would i mount a sensor like this
[06:21:00] <zeeshan> to measure cutting forces on the cnc
[06:21:02] <zeeshan> would be COOL
[06:21:42] <MacGalempsy> from all the machines I see on ebay, the power source is the most expensive part
[06:21:57] <zeeshan> what do you mean
[06:21:59] <zeeshan> the edm?
[06:22:08] <MacGalempsy> yeah
[06:22:16] <zeeshan> i think its cause its low voltage
[06:22:18] <zeeshan> high current pulses
[06:22:24] <zeeshan> you prolly need fancy electronics to do that
[06:22:59] <zeeshan> maybe it can be done using IGBTs ?
[06:23:29] <MacGalempsy> that website I posted as the board to make the pulse powersupply
[06:23:44] <zeeshan> http://www.digikey.ca/product-detail/en/IXGK320N60B3/IXGK320N60B3-ND/3586354
[06:23:44] <zeeshan> wow
[06:23:47] <PetefromTn_> MacGalempsy I apologise man that link you showed IS the same sink EDM I was talking about..
[06:23:47] <zeeshan> this baby can handle 500A
[06:25:15] <PetefromTn_> probably be cheaper to just find a used CNC EDM and retrofit it than build one from scratch possibly.
[06:25:33] <MacGalempsy> http://www.ebay.com/itm/Charmilles-110-EDM-sinker-machine-/271773566948?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3f46f787e4
[06:25:36] <bobo_> EDM power supply is the main part and it's control is the secret
[06:25:38] <PetefromTn_> or at least easier
[06:25:52] <MacGalempsy> theres the mechanical, then solder the powersupply together and automate
[06:26:46] <PetefromTn_> yeah simple as dirt right ;)
[06:26:51] <bobo_> also the other main ingrediant is the dielectric
[06:26:53] <Cromaglious> t xxx11 xming running on the windows box yeah
[06:27:16] <MacGalempsy> yeah. 5gallons = $100
[06:27:22] <PetefromTn_> no idea what you area talking about man..
[06:28:14] <PetefromTn_> Feel like a damn winter shut in over here lately...
[06:28:23] <MacGalempsy> like bobo_ says. its about powersupply and feedrate
[06:28:24] <PetefromTn_> ready for some damn spring
[06:28:30] <zeeshan> MacGalempsy: i came across a sink edm
[06:28:33] <zeeshan> for $800
[06:28:42] <zeeshan> wanted it so bad, but couldnt fit in the garage
[06:29:15] <zeeshan> https://www.flickr.com/photos/128539016@N05/15537463454/
[06:29:18] <zeeshan> there was so much shit for it
[06:30:03] <MacGalempsy> since I am just looking to interior parts, I figured a small desktop sinker EDM would be the right tool for the job

[06:33:05] <Cromaglious_> wow big booooom
[06:33:06] <zeeshan> that is the perfect size
[06:33:06] <PetefromTn_> That must have been unreal to be standing there and see that explode

[06:33:37] <zeeshan> bobo_: too far :P
[06:34:03] <MacGalempsy> I was thinking the $300 head and the DYI powersource
[06:34:17] <PetefromTn_> I doubt I could fit that huge bastard in my shop LOL
[06:34:24] <MacGalempsy> after the board gets here in a few days, I will get a cost together for the powersupply
[06:34:50] <PetefromTn_> would be neat to make it a linuxCNC driven sink EDM...

[06:37:03] <Cromaglious_> I just bought a live center for the crappy shop smith lathe at the Creatorspace.us
[06:37:07] <MacGalempsy> thats what the CNC mill is for!
[06:37:16] <Cromaglious_> that'll make it a bit less crappy
[06:37:55] <zeeshan> PetefromTn_: did your 12x36 come with a stready rest?
[06:37:56] <PetefromTn_> Shop smith lathe?
[06:38:04] <Cromaglious_> wood lathe
[06:38:20] <PetefromTn_> yeah it came with everything Steady, Follow, live and dead centers... two chucks, etc etc.
[06:38:32] <zeeshan> mine doesnt have a steady rest :(
[06:38:40] <zeeshan> i think i will need it for the hyd job
[06:38:40] <PetefromTn_> sure as hell miss it right now too...
[06:38:56] <Cromaglious_> shopsmith, lathe, tablesaw, sander, jointer, drill press, table belt sander
[06:38:57] <MacGalempsy> will have to keep an eye on the D10, until this cnc is 100%, my wife will kill me if I take up anymore garage space
[06:39:01] <PetefromTn_> honestly it would be quite simple to make a better one. with bearings instead of bronze tips.
[06:39:16] <Cromaglious_> all in one doesn't do anything great, does every ok
[06:39:24] <zeeshan> you just gotta make the v groove accruate?
[06:39:29] <zeeshan> and the centerline fairly accurate?
[06:40:02] <Cromaglious_> zeeshan, you also have to make sure there is no rack in the frame, that leads to taper
[06:40:06] <PetefromTn_> meh none of it needs to be really accurate.. the bearing tips are adjustable... as long as it is straight it should be good...

[06:41:18] <MacGalempsy> :O
[06:41:43] <zeeshan> whats the reasoning
[06:41:44] <Cromaglious_> PetefromTn_, nice!
[06:41:46] <zeeshan> behind making it 2 piece?
[06:42:07] <Cromaglious_> easier to fab most likely
[06:42:26] <PetefromTn_> not sure really... no real purpose that I can see other than just being able to remove the workpiece without moving the steady rest.
[06:42:37] <zeeshan> oh that makes sense
[06:42:40] <zeeshan> if you have heavy stuff
[06:42:53] <zeeshan> you can just open the top and lift it out a bit easier
[06:43:23] <MacGalempsy> Cromaglious_: you sound like Al!
[06:43:31] <Cromaglious_> oh the swing open, yep... have a bridge hoist/crane in the shop and drop it straight down... no manuvering it through the hole

[06:43:45] <zeeshan> well i was kinda imagining
[06:43:51] <zeeshan> sliding the steady rest out first
[06:43:51] <Cromaglious_> or engine lift
[06:43:53] <zeeshan> then removing th epiece
[06:43:59] <zeeshan> you'd leave it chucked on the chuck
[06:44:14] <PetefromTn_> http://rifleshooter.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/338-barrel-in-a-steady-rest.jpg mine looked like that only green..
[06:44:25] <zeeshan> pete thats a really nice one
[06:44:31] <zeeshan> it'd be easy to replace that with bearings
[06:44:37] <Cromaglious_> also you don't have to change zero if you need to take it out to test fit, then have to put it mack in the lathe
[06:44:45] <PetefromTn_> that is what I was planning before I sold the machine...
[06:45:05] <Cromaglious_> I need to make a steady rest and a follow rest for my sheldon
[06:45:07] <MacGalempsy> bbiab
[06:45:07] <PetefromTn_> now I will probably make one like that shop built one for my new CNC lathe..

[06:47:57] <zeeshan> hey pete
[06:48:00] <zeeshan> this one you posted
[06:48:05] <zeeshan> this guy must have some sort of key slot
[06:48:10] <Cromaglious_> yep, scrap yard had a 600# hunk of 6" plate about 14" wide man I wanted that SOO bad
[06:48:14] <zeeshan> to stop that steady rest from rotating?
[06:48:27] <zeeshan> lol crom
[06:49:01] <PetefromTn_> key slot?
[06:49:14] <Cromaglious_> it would take my saw 2 days to cut it... and it would take me a week to get my band saw setup to cut it
[06:49:18] <zeeshan> you see the clamp oin the bottom
[06:49:29] <zeeshan> its only got 1 hex head holding the steady rest down to it
[06:49:36] <zeeshan> im wondering how he's stopping it from rotating
[06:49:43] <PetefromTn_> probably pinned to the base
[06:50:00] <PetefromTn_> I will probably just tig weld mine together.
[06:50:05] <Cromaglious_> zeeshan, i agree with PetefromTn_
[06:50:15] <zeeshan> yea tigging should be good enough
[06:50:26] <zeeshan> its amazing how much 1 sample angle
[06:50:35] <zeeshan> *simple angle makes a mounting bracke tlook so nice
[06:51:21] <Cromaglious_> abom79 just put a slot in his to match the the slot for the way on the original lathe.. he made a spacer for his

[08:29:39] <Cromaglious> there is lots and lots of trig in that
[08:30:02] <Cromaglious> have you looked for mathmatical models of bevel gears??
[08:30:08] <archivist> having the ability to shove the trig IN the gcode is one of the linuxcnc real advantages
[08:30:51] <archivist> er yes :) http://www.archivist.info/gear/designbevel.php
[08:31:17] <archivist> I have an error to still find
[08:31:50] <archivist> http://www.collection.archivist.info/searchv13.php?searchstr=bevel
[08:32:03] <Cromaglious> what error?
[08:32:28] <archivist> see last picture the gears mesh at the wrong angle
[08:33:34] <archivist> this is either backlash in the rotaries or a set up error(tooth gap) or something else
[08:34:15] <archivist> but I had spent too much time for the price I quoted
[08:35:11] <bobo_> archivist not that I understand but was thinking this was a good deal https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h1Xs6Exx3XQ

[08:35:36] -!- mrzk has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[08:35:55] <archivist> that is the same but spur/helical
[08:36:25] <Connor> archivist So what are you going to do ?
[08:36:54] <Cromaglious> hmm if you try to cut a 45 angle what it turn out to be? is it off the same 10 degrees or is it proportional?
[08:36:54] <archivist> bobo_, if you look at my cutter it is also straight sided for generation
[08:37:29] <bobo_> he also shows bevel ( stright ? ) gear cutting
[08:37:31] <Cromaglious> the shafts being 45 degrees alignment

[08:39:21] <bobo_> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJQtx80euGM
[08:41:10] <archivist> that is a spur not a bevel
[08:41:31] <bobo_> Oh
[08:41:38] <archivist> technique is similar but moooooore maffs
[08:41:52] <archivist> taper paths
[08:42:10] <bobo_> ok
[08:42:32] <bobo_> cone ?
[08:42:59] <archivist> yes http://www.collection.archivist.info/searchv13.php?searchstr=bevel that shows the cone form
[08:43:43] <Cromaglious> hmm it the angle it's off by equal to the angle between the top of the teeth and the root of both gears at the edge?
[08:43:49] <Cromaglious> s/it/is/
[08:44:26] <archivist> the big difference is rotating one rotary by the as well as of lifting the cutter
[08:44:36] <Cromaglious> is the root supposed to actually be the top of the tooth?
[08:44:37] <archivist> the big difference is rotating one rotary by the other as well as of lifting the cutter
[08:45:07] <archivist> root is not wide enough, probably my main error
[08:45:39] <archivist> but each gear takes 4/5 hours of machine time
[08:46:54] <bobo_> how many hours of thinking/setup time ?
[08:49:22] <archivist> a "few" lots of book reading then one finds a page like http://www.collection.archivist.info/archive/DJC/BK/BK2918/page_0087t.jpg
[08:49:52] <archivist> picture worth a few thousand words
[08:50:50] <archivist> I use one cutter but intend to over rotate to make the gap
[08:51:00] <archivist> tooth gap
[08:51:53] <archivist> look on youtube for gleason bevel gear generation
[08:52:15] <Cromaglious> looks like you put addendum onto the tooth instead of taking more dedendum
[08:53:52] <Cromaglious> made the root the pitch line instead of the middle of the tooth
[08:54:27] <SpeedEvil> Gear words are such fun
[08:54:36] <Cromaglious> looking at the picture closer it looks to be one tooth or the combined addendum
[08:54:47] <archivist> the addendum/dedendum are modified from normal in the gleason system
[08:55:24] <Cromaglious> well it looks like your error is in the pitch line addendum dedendum figuring code
[08:55:55] <archivist> that is in the maths correctly I think, the rotation not giving a proper tooth gap is I think the main error
[08:56:23] <archivist> the involute curve on the two look right
[08:56:49] <Cromaglious> a full tooth?
[08:57:19] <Cromaglious> I could see a 1/4 to 1/3 tooth not 1/1 tooth
[08:57:28] <archivist> I dont have good enough measuring tools to prove the curve
[08:57:56] <archivist> they feel right in mesh
[08:57:58] <Cromaglious> you have pin guages?

[09:00:27] <Cromaglious> not really caring about the taper tight now... Trying to find how much deeper the teeth have to mesh before the shafts are at 90 degrees
[09:00:33] <archivist> and a sensible cmm
[09:00:44] <Cromaglious> you are trying to make them mesh at 90 degrees correct?
[09:00:55] <archivist> yes
[09:03:16] <Cromaglious> can you hold them at 90 to each other with the outsides meshed
[09:03:26] <Cromaglious> so the tips are apart
[09:04:25] <archivist> 8 degs approx wrong
[09:04:43] <Cromaglious> then measure parallel to one shaft and perpendicular to the other and find how far the parallel shaft is offset from the perp shaft tips
[09:05:08] -!- rob_h [rob_h!~robh@90.203.32.28] has joined #linuxcnc
[09:05:59] <archivist> that needs to be done on an optical setup, would take an hour or two to setup
[09:06:54] <archivist> and as there is a basic tooth root error, I would try to fix that first next time I try to make some
[09:08:02] <Cromaglious> that maybe true but I don't think it's 4 degrees per tooth worth
[09:08:56] <archivist> remember the tip engagement will not change much/at all
[09:09:24] <Cromaglious> 4 degrees is 1.11111% of 360 degrees hmm maybe it is..
[09:09:29] <archivist> so it will be bigger that first imagined I think
[09:10:03] <archivist> gnats cock but 1.1% matters :(
[09:10:38] <Cromaglious> 8 degrees is 8.88889% of 90
[09:11:13] <archivist> that cheating
[09:12:08] <archivist> percentage of full scale bites in many measurement systems
[09:12:44] <Cromaglious> you're about 10% on 90 degrees. which the 8.88889% is really close to that
[09:14:08] <archivist> if you look at the root on the brass bevel, it is just not there it is a v like the cutter
[09:14:19] <Cromaglious> get a magnifying glass at look to see how much more tooth engagement you need
[09:15:06] <Cromaglious> 10% ain't much of a tiny gear tooth
[09:15:55] <archivist> I know, I have made a homebrew measuring machine but it is poor for these bevels
[09:16:05] <Cromaglious> your using a straight V? and the brass gear is actually an involute gear form?
[09:16:53] <archivist> yes, that is generation
[09:17:09] <archivist> measuring machine http://www.collection.archivist.info/searchv13.php?searchstr=travelling
[09:18:42] <Cromaglious> and you can't use a hobb either... just a shit load of passes to get the proper involute shape
[09:18:51] <archivist> yup
[09:19:08] <Cromaglious> and they have to go all the way to the tip
[09:19:36] <archivist> a bit further to get rid of machine errors
[09:19:46] <renesis> archivist: cool inspection scope

[09:21:54] <MacGalempsy> ok back
[09:22:02] <archivist> the small bevel is 10mm dia large is 15.7
[09:22:33] <archivist> something like a .5 mod size near the outer
[09:23:46] <Cromaglious> yup wider root, narrower tooth
[09:25:00] <renesis> good detail, like in the grain texture in the chip at the end of the tooth
[09:28:06] <archivist> very inconvenient to use though, with no vertical rotation of an item being measured
[09:28:10] <renesis> how do you make the lines?
[09:28:47] <archivist> see top picture that is the measuring eyepiece with the two lines
[09:29:13] <renesis> its wires?
[09:31:14] <archivist> spiders web or engraved on glass (likely)
[09:31:15] <renesis> so you just have an eyepiece and it has two fixed lines centered?
[09:31:16] <Cromaglious> if you could view the gears meshed you could calculate the pixels required to make it seat deeper. Derive the distance by calculating the gear pitch
[09:31:44] <archivist> one line is rotated and then you read the vernier
[09:32:13] <Cromaglious> in pixels
[09:32:15] <renesis> okay right its the whole assembly thats what i thought
[09:32:42] <renesis> should start dimensioning my drawings in pixels
[09:32:45] <archivist> I have a spare I may mount a camera on
[09:34:42] <Cromaglious> measure the angle at the contact line and it's straight trig from there

[15:25:51] <tjtr33> modicom addr 300015 ok? similar pattern and the bitweight 8 is common
[15:25:57] <archivist> also you can see a similar error on serial networks where you get parity/stop bits incorrectly set

[15:26:32] <Swapper> i cinda ignored the serial errors part since i got other values
[15:27:00] <Swapper> but your right, ill dubble check parity/stops and termination resistors
[15:27:01] <archivist> I am used to debugging serial years ago :)
[15:27:32] <Swapper> i figured someone here could know a thing or two regarding this sort of stuff :)
[15:27:59] <archivist> I even have a dedicated serial analyser
[15:28:07] <Swapper> would it be possible that values got wrong or would that be CRCed away ?
[15:28:59] <Swapper> i have a rigol but havent checked more the RS232 only to test the decoder
[15:29:12] <Swapper> debugging R485 mobus on that i dont know how
[15:29:18] <archivist> I would go through all set up variables making sure they are right

[16:03:58] <hkais> great!
[16:04:39] <hkais> Anyway I am wondering, if there is a list of well known and well working CNC engraving machines with LinuxCNC? Can someone help me out of the dark?
[16:05:24] <tjtr33> may help http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Case_Studies

[16:15:40] <archivist> if you look at a lot of the automatics, there are multiple ops that are interleaved (timed) but separate motions
[16:16:05] <CaptHindsight> tjtr33: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7kMevlclKg low throughput version
[16:16:16] <hkais> are there any CNCs outside to buy with the support for linuxCNC which are well known to work?
[16:16:30] <Rab> Tormach ;)
[16:16:44] <archivist> that wickman cnc was even craftier, as it was running two threading ops on one spindle
[16:16:48] <CaptHindsight> hkais: whats your budget? what size?
[16:17:45] <hkais> size for typical office articles (pens, some wood parts, cdcovers, ...) roughtly about 50-80cm in each dimension
[16:18:13] <hkais> budget as cheap but good quality as possible. also used devices are okay
[16:18:21] <archivist> may want a rotating axis then
[16:18:55] <hkais> CaptHindsight: ^^^
[16:19:00] <_methods> you can buy those 3020's or 6040's for $1k
[16:19:10] <CaptHindsight> hkais: with spindle or laser?

[16:22:22] <_methods> it's nameless chinese
[16:23:10] <_methods> there are tons ofmakers for those machines
[16:25:06] <PetefromTn_> now they are lubricating some linear bearing tracks and some latching mechanisms.. Pretty cool CNC stuff in SPACE!!
[16:25:45] <hkais> CaptHindsight: thought of a spindle. but if lasers are not to pricey maybe they are an option. Can you recommend some?
[16:26:03] <hkais> many thx to all! Have not thought it will be so much support

[16:27:13] <hkais> what is the recommended development process on getting an engravement to a piece? (from the idea to the spindle/laser) Can someone recommend me a toolchain? Ideally which is very easy to use, also for non engineers.

[18:00:38] <CaptHindsight> hate to crash that cutting tool

[18:03:04] <archivist> helical needs 5 if you set the angle by cnc
[18:04:50] <archivist> when I did my first helical I did some setup cheating and did an angle path Z(X or Y) cant remember
[18:05:05] <zeeshan> im confused as to why,, do you have just have 2 spindles whose axis is at an angle to each other
[18:05:15] <zeeshan> with an involute gear cutter one one axis
[18:05:18] <zeeshan> and sync motion between the two
[18:05:32] <zeeshan> do = don't
[18:05:56] <archivist> either the path is at an angle or the rotary is set to an angle or both

[19:47:26] <PetefromTn_> heh I just finished mine going thru all the receipts and paypal stuff was time consuming.
[19:48:31] <anarchos3> i realized I need to wait until march 1st (or later depending on when the forms get send out) because you have to file the first 60 days of 2015's RRSP contribution along with 2014s filing
[19:48:45] <anarchos3> which i neglected to do last year, so i believe I can refile and get a larger refund
[19:49:32] <PetefromTn_> nice.. always nice to NOT have to pay.
[19:49:45] <PetefromTn_> If I did not have kids I would probably be paying now too..
[19:51:04] <anarchos3> I work seasonally, and do a metric ton of OT during the winter, so I'm taxed on the assumtion I'm making a ton per year, since the cheques are quite large during the winter. Then my summer income is $0 and they give me a ton of it back :P
[19:52:10] <PetefromTn_> I wish I had a TON of anything going on sigh...
[19:53:00] <CaptHindsight> start bundling those cnc machines with router, extruder, laser and ice cream scooper

[19:55:51] <anarchos3> They got me to make a new map, and then they hired these GIS "professionals" to take what I did and expand on it, but it turns out they dont know what they're doing at all. Worst part is the woman is the wife of one of the guys who works there, so no one wants to say that these GIS people are idiots and we're paying them for nothing....it's kinda weird.
[19:56:41] <anarchos3> so my plan is to complete what i started, in my own time, show up in the fall and be like "give me tons of money, please" ;-)
[19:58:42] <SpeedEvil> are you aware of the openstreetmap stack?
[19:59:47] <anarchos3> not exactly, no. i am aware of openstreetmap
[20:00:22] <SpeedEvil> There are a lot of useful GISy tools - opensource that can be used to make quite nice maps

[20:26:38] <zeeshan> it makes no sense to machine it and then pay $150 for hard chrome
[20:26:54] <zeeshan> will take 6 weeks to get, but thats ok
[20:27:32] <PCW> From Micron?
[20:27:56] <zeeshan> no, from ott-jakob
[20:28:00] <zeeshan> micron doesnt offer a replacement cylinder
[20:28:07] <zeeshan> or na replacement drawbar!
[20:28:14] <PCW> Is that who made the original?
[20:28:26] <zeeshan> yes most european machines use ott jakob drawbars
[20:28:37] <zeeshan> and a lot of machines that use hsk tool holders also use their drawbars
[20:28:43] <CaptHindsight> spring return, hydraulic actuator with how much force and stroke?
[20:28:48] <PCW> Not bad at all considering
[20:29:01] <CaptHindsight> if it bolts right in
[20:29:04] <zeeshan> mind you, this is jsut the hydraulic cylinder
[20:29:06] <zeeshan> none of the guts
[20:29:10] <zeeshan> if you want the guts, its another 2500$
[20:29:19] <zeeshan> but i dont need them cause mine are ok
[20:29:27] <PCW> do they have the washers?
[20:29:28] <CaptHindsight> oh, just the new body

[20:31:21] <zeeshan> that ott jakobs with cam lock design + belleville washers is a safer design

[20:56:43] <Rab> Plus, should be fast enough to add some features like a webcam to monitor the tool.
[20:56:44] <_methods> ahh but it's so cool they are the future man
[20:56:58] <skunkworks> Rab, seemed like a good idea at the time? ;)
[20:57:22] <Rab> skunkworks, intriguing at least.
[20:58:06] <ssi> it's something to hack on
[20:58:11] <ssi> which is a value in itself :)
[20:58:13] <Rab> The BBB is working fine, it's just slow. I might use it for a less demanding motion platform.
[20:58:31] <Rab> Or logic analyzer, or any number of other projects.

[20:59:31] <skunkworks> if they get the gui totally separated from the realtime - it will probably work fine. (but then you need 2 devices to run a machine...)

[21:00:05] <_methods> not at all
[21:01:25] <Rab> skunkworks, right. Could use a laptop that's unsuited for r/t as a console, though.

[21:04:00] <Rab> The big dealbreaker was finding out that the realtime components like stepgen were rewritten specifically for the BBB PRU (obviously), but weren't used the same way as the LinuxCNC components and were missing features.
[21:04:23] <ssi> see what I wanted to do was come up with a cape with an s6lx9 on it and a pair of 26 pin headers
[21:04:28] <ssi> basically a 5i25 for bbb
[21:04:48] <ssi> but I quit working on it because there was little interest and issues with the gui
[21:05:09] <CaptHindsight> Rab: http://linuxgizmos.com/freescales-popular-i-mx6-soc-sprouts-a-cortex-m4-mcu/ 1Ghz ARM A9 + 200MHz cortex-M4 core and dual GB ethernet, if the M4 can access the GPIO this could do what the BBB does and drive a high res GUI
[21:05:33] <Rab> CaptHindsight, interesting.
[21:05:37] <CaptHindsight> how much work to take the stepgen and make it work with a similar ARM soc?
[21:06:13] <CaptHindsight> dual core A8/9 with a separate M4 micro for stepping?
[21:06:15] <Rab> I dunno, it's coded in PRU asm.
[21:06:19] <CaptHindsight> ah
[21:06:29] <Rab> So I assume it's very specific to that TI product.
[21:06:29] <CaptHindsight> at least it was optimized
[21:06:47] <ssi> yes, very
[21:07:05] <Rab> I would also like to experiment with servo control, and that's apparently bleeding-edge untested in Machinekit.
[21:07:23] -!- skunkworks has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds]
[21:07:45] <CaptHindsight> another option, modify Linuxcnc stepgen to work in the M4
[21:08:28] <Rab> Is the stepgen all C or is there inline x86 asm?
[21:08:48] <CaptHindsight> I'll have to look, maybe someone else knows off the top of their head
[21:09:44] <ssi> hostmot stepgen is such a better option :)
[21:10:45] <CaptHindsight> don't think that the imx6 will drop to $5ea
[21:11:45] <ssi> it would also be easy to spin a board with an imx6 and a s6lx9 and have integrated machine with superports for mesa daughterboards

[21:12:26] <CaptHindsight> yes since it also has PCIe
[21:12:27] <Rab> If the BBB proved anything, it's that there's a large market for integrators (ie 3D printer and desktop mill mfgs) who are looking for a very small hardware platform with RT i/o. There was a pretty good shortage for a while.
[21:12:53] <CaptHindsight> I just use x86 for that
[21:13:02] <_methods> ^^
[21:13:07] <_methods> $39 free shipping
[21:13:40] <ssi> yeah but size/power/solidstateyness is a desirable feature too
[21:14:10] <CaptHindsight> the only interest was if a board with $5 arm soc could replace a $50 x86 mini-itx board well enough
[21:14:11] <ssi> I did a big integration project where we had a hundred shipping containers welded together and each container had a nema box with a bbb and cape I designed in it for environmental control
[21:14:19] <ssi> using a dc7800 per container would be a nightmare
[21:14:54] <_methods> my point is related to linuxcnc
[21:15:11] <ssi> so is mine in a roundabout way
[21:15:31] <ssi> especially when you get down to small machines like 3d printers and desktop routers, being able to miniaturize the control host is desirable
[21:15:48] <SpeedEvil> edison!
[21:15:48] <ssi> obviously for a 10klb vmc its less beneficial
[21:15:50] <SpeedEvil> (kidding)
[21:15:54] <_methods> and that i understand and it's fun to do it just because
[21:15:56] <CaptHindsight> imx6 also has the GPU power for the GUI
[21:16:16] <_methods> but you can get miniaturized systems that provide what you want you just have to pay accordingly
[21:16:56] <_methods> like that conga board
[21:17:05] <_methods> same footprint as a bbb and does 1000x more
[21:17:07] <Rab> Budget is a problem for a <$2K machine.
[21:17:12] <_methods> but it costs 1000x more lol
[21:18:30] <_methods> well we all know in the end you pay one way or another.....with your wallet or your time
[21:19:19] <CaptHindsight> it's surprising to me how little value some people place on their time
[21:19:38] <CaptHindsight> save $25 by writing 100 hours of code
[21:19:46] <_methods> hehe
[21:19:46] <ssi> don't neglect the value some people put on the joy of hackery
[21:19:53] <ssi> and learning
[21:19:58] <_methods> back to my just because statement
[21:20:04] <_methods> which is a great reason
[21:20:13] <_methods> i do it to myself quite often lol
[21:20:34] <ssi> I'm the idiot who built a $50k machine shop because he didn't want to pay someone $50 to cut an instrument panel
[21:20:40] <_methods> i think we all fall into the have fun hacking part
[21:20:46] <ssi> but I'm a far better human being because of the work I've done
[21:20:55] <CaptHindsight> how to get people interested in overthrowing oligarchs in their spare time?
[21:21:12] <Rab> ssi, have you cut 1000 panels?
[21:21:18] <ssi> nope
[21:21:25] <CaptHindsight> stepgen is all in C
[21:21:32] <ssi> I only cut one, and I ended up doing it manually on a mill because it ended up being carbon fiber
[21:25:12] <CaptHindsight> FPGA prices keep falling as well
[21:25:17] <ssi> yep
[21:25:21] <_methods> indeed
[21:25:27] <ssi> and the s6lx9 is VERY cheap

[22:50:40] <anarchos3> it's $40/mo for the "crippled" 2.5D version, or $100/mo for what you are getting for free for non-commercial use, if you do anything commercial
[22:50:46] <anarchos3> which seems pretty reasonable, really.
[22:50:59] <dirty_d> yea im not gonna argue with that

[22:53:03] <anarchos3> which i might concider if that deal ever comes back...$40/mo for a commercial licence of HSMWorks alone (which is $8-10k for SW) is a killer deal

[23:26:57] <ssi> I'm certainly not going to pay for it if it's this laggy always

[23:27:11] <dirty_d> _methods, why do the drawings suck?
[23:27:25] <_methods> try making a drawing and you'll see
[23:27:59] <MacGalempsy> evening all
[23:28:04] <_methods> hola
[23:28:28] <dirty_d> i will if it ever finishes loading, lol
[23:29:42] <_methods> you can't add sheets to the drawings and you had like 3 dimension options
[23:29:55] <ssi> yeah, same thing
[23:29:58] <dirty_d> you cant sketch on arbitrary faces?
[23:29:59] <_methods> linear dimension, arc dimension and something else useless
[23:30:04] <ssi> new account, blue box says "Free period ends in 30 days"
[23:30:08] <ssi> clicking that gives me three paid options
[23:30:18] <dirty_d> still laggy as shit

[23:31:06] <dirty_d> hmm, cant seem to use the symetry constraint on the axis lines
[23:31:36] <_methods> yeah it's pretty rough around the edges for something they want people to pay for
[23:32:10] <dirty_d> actually the framerate is better, but the input lag is horrible
[23:32:40] <dirty_d> like the line cursor tool thing trails way behind the mouse cursor
[23:34:03] -!- adb has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds]
[23:38:04] -!- erve has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[23:40:43] <dirty_d> actually the video performance is really good, its just the input

[23:53:24] <anarchos3> my 10 minute trunnion table :P
[23:55:55] <Cromaglious> no rotary table in the middle?
[23:56:09] <ssi> give him another ten minutes, jeez
[23:56:10] <anarchos3> it's a work in progress
[23:56:12] <anarchos3> heh
[23:56:40] <anarchos3> i need to figure out exactly how I'm going to draw the arc for the belt to run in
[23:57:46] <Cromaglious> hmmm 2 circles isn't there a snap line to arc
