[00:05:58] <furrywolf> bbl
[00:06:25] <Tom_itx> any opinions on SSD? which are reliable, which are junk?
[00:07:48] <_methods> intel
[00:07:55] <_methods> good
[00:07:57] <minimill> intel if you care
[00:08:12] <furrywolf> intel, samsung good, ocz fucking crap, rebranded china fucking crap.
[00:08:52] <Tom_itx> i've got a small one but don't use it much. just for testing new things
[00:09:37] <Tom_itx> any certain intel?
[00:09:46] <_methods> all of my intels are still alive
[00:09:48] <furrywolf> I have a sandisk cloudspeed and a pny, no problems yet... of course, the pny is still in its shrink wrap. :P
[00:10:21] <furrywolf> the cloudspeed claims to be "enterprise", which I suspect means "costs more".
[00:11:24] <furrywolf> the pny is destined for my toughbook cf-30 when I have spare time.
[00:13:08] <Tom_itx> what os?
[00:13:14] <_methods> i had 2 smaller corsairs die on me
[00:13:36] <Tom_itx> i've got a small corsair but like i said, i don't use it much
[00:13:38] <_methods> those are the only ones to die on me though
[00:13:43] <Tom_itx> just for testing stuff
[00:13:45] -!- gonzo_nb has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[00:13:56] <_methods> i have intel, samsung, adata, pny, and the corsairs
[00:14:05] <_methods> all alive except corsair

[00:14:38] <Tom_itx> there we go
[00:15:10] <furrywolf> I have heard bad things repeatedly about ocz...
[00:15:31] <Tom_itx> i may have some ram from them
[00:15:35] <Tom_itx> can't recall right now
[00:15:51] <furrywolf> I think theregister ran an article at some point on ocz failure rates, with some models having a >25% return rate.
[00:16:07] -!- asdfasd has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds]
[00:17:55] <furrywolf> Before we move further on the SSD versus hard drive discussion, we need to throw OCZ right out the window. Let's look at how it has done on a company-wide level since Hardware.fr started tracking SSD returns. Article 3, 2.93 per cent; Article 4, 3.5 per cent; Article 5, 4.2 per cent; Article 6, 7.03 per cent; Article 7, 5.02 per cent; Article 8, 6.64 per cent; Article 9, 2.27 per cent; Article 10, 5.66per cent.
[00:18:01] <furrywolf> OCZ had an individual product – the OCZ Octane SATA 2 128GB – with a 52 per cent return rate and numerous others above 40 per cent. Prieur calls OCZ's return rates "catastrophic" and I have to agree*.
[00:18:08] <furrywolf> http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/11/07/storage_ssds/
[00:20:00] <furrywolf> for comparrison, samsung is 0.5%...
[00:20:41] <furrywolf> bbl
[00:22:39] <furrywolf> "*My own experience is a 240 per cent return rate with OCZ. The return rate is more than 100 per cent because many of these SSDs not only failed but the returned disks failed, and then the second, third and sometimes even fourth disks failed. I eventually pulled the whole line from every client and replaced them with those of other vendors at my expense."

[00:24:10] <Rab> Tom_itx, don't buy Samdung EVO 840 (and possibly other models using the same flash technology):
http://www.extremetech.com/computing/199673-second-patch-for-ongoing-840-evo-ssd-performance-issues-being-prepped-by-samsung
[00:25:32] <Rab> Apparently an unfixable problem with TLC NAND.
[00:25:49] <Tom_L> i think i've heard of that one
[00:25:57] <Tom_L> ( the problem )
[00:26:19] <Rab> Models with different flash (840 Pro, older drives, etc) don't seem to be affected.

[05:11:17] <XXCoder> lol
[05:11:24] <zeeshan> its a completely 3d part
[05:11:28] <zeeshan> with not much reference planes
[05:11:35] <XXCoder> fun
[05:11:46] <XXCoder> whats place where most points are on common plane?

[05:12:37] <XXCoder> the pedal only
[05:12:56] <zeeshan> its been bent in 2 diff planes
[05:13:00] <zeeshan> compound angle
[05:13:05] <zeeshan> and done twice
[05:13:08] <XXCoder> its good idea to just do the complex side
[05:13:17] <XXCoder> then flip it over and mill other side
[05:13:28] <XXCoder> thyen finally cut off the holder tab

[06:07:32] <XXCoder> kinecg
[06:07:37] <archivist> the thing about the faro arm is you can put it on the floor and measure inside a car
[06:08:26] <XXCoder> fancy.
[06:08:41] <archivist> XXCoder, that result looks only 60% not close enough to 100%
[06:09:06] <XXCoder> yeah
[06:09:16] <XXCoder> still enough to do some basic stuff
[06:09:29] <XXCoder> then polish the model to what you like
[06:10:29] <archivist> and there is a basic rule of measurement that in order to measure to 1% your equipment must be 10 times better, .1%
[06:14:29] <archivist> the reason for that is there are other uncertainties to add, eg length needs you to think about temperature, contact pressure and axis of measurement on axis of item, etc

[16:17:28] <Rab> archivist, I've only seen the Proxxon rotary tools, and while they do have a toy-like aspect they also show serious engineering and precision which puts them in a different class from e.g. Dremel.

[16:20:52] <Rab> I think the Proxxon lathe might be a poor choice for a general-purpose hobby lathe, but a reasonable choice for precision miniature fixtures in a laboratory setting.
[16:21:33] <Rab> I don't know who else services that sort of niche in 2015, but I'm sure they're not any cheaper.

[17:48:13] <renesis> rab: youre doing it wrong
[17:48:39] <Rab> renesis, doing what.
[17:48:46] <renesis> concentricity happens when you put side loading on it and the axis gets locked into position by bearing irregularities
[17:49:24] <Rab> haha
[17:49:34] <renesis> its not completely a joke =(
[17:49:47] <Rab> I know, that's what makes it extra funny.
[17:50:55] <renesis> the work key thing pisses me off the most
[17:51:16] <renesis> my guess is they tried using steel bits and it just ripped itself apart instead of just getting more annoying
[17:51:35] <renesis> *worn
[17:53:36] <Rab> The button to hold the shaft?
[17:54:01] <renesis> yeah
[17:54:43] <renesis> prob 90% of the dremels were things at work, prob half of those the button wouldnt hold the spindle anymore
[17:55:40] <renesis> i know my dremel, i had it a few days and leaned into the button on accident while it was loaded, and that thing was never the same
[17:56:19] <renesis> it works but its clearly semi fucked, not close to new in functionality
[17:58:57] amnesic is now known as amnesic_away
[18:03:41] <Rab> Based on my mid-'80s Dremel, the button engages a triangular pot-metal spider. So there are three points in a rotation where you can immobilize the shaft.
[18:10:36] <renesis> mid 99s pot metal is probably not as awesome
[18:10:47] <renesis> er, 00s

[21:46:28] <zeeshan> and swing
[21:47:46] <renesis> heh, foam board and a razor blade
[21:49:21] <renesis> you crease along the inside edge and slice in from the outside edge

[22:03:41] <XXCoder> hey new
[22:03:54] <XXCoder> zeeshan: mdf?
[22:04:00] <zeeshan> die mdf!
[22:04:05] <zeeshan> im thinking just plywood
[22:04:09] <XXCoder> its good test material
[22:04:19] <newtolinuxcnc> there is a way to connact all the limit switches to the same leg in the lpt?
[22:05:06] -!- adb has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds]
[22:06:23] <newtolinuxcnc> i want to use the limit switches for homing and soft limit.
[22:06:53] <renesis> mdf is awesome for speakers and shitty for just about everything else
[22:07:11] <XXCoder> dunno I saw some nice cnc machines made from mdf
[22:07:20] <XXCoder> but yeah wouldnt use em in most cases.
[22:07:22] <renesis> how long did they last
[22:07:58] <SpeedEvil> As long as it's not overstressed, or wet, MDF lasts forever
[22:08:24] <XXCoder> SpeedEvil: wouldnt it evenually take in enough water from air
[22:08:27] <XXCoder> unless sealed
[22:08:32] <SpeedEvil> No.

[22:08:48] <SpeedEvil> Well - if your machine shop is at >80% humidity all the time
[22:10:28] <renesis> its heavy and non resonant which is great for big vibrating loads, but it crumbles, which sucks for big vibrating loads
[22:11:44] <renesis> so for something indoors that lives its life on carpet or next to electronics, mdf works, in a shop or garage id be a lot more paranoid

[22:12:27] <renesis> the machine base part not so much because inches of MDF isnt going to change much, but you cant really do that for the moving bits
[22:14:46] <Tom_itx> zeeshan, prototype it with aluminum sheet welded then make the real one from solid billet
[22:14:58] <zeeshan> im planning to make it from multiple pieces welded togethr
[22:14:59] <Tom_itx> paying close attention to grain direction
[22:15:20] <zeeshan> i was just hoping to use some sort of cheap ass plastic
[22:15:24] <zeeshan> to first make it from
[22:15:28] <Tom_itx> wood
[22:15:30] <newtolinuxcnc> there is an error input to linux cnc? i can use some leg in the LPT for that. or I have to use the limit switches input for that?
[22:15:30] <zeeshan> cant use acrylic cause the top piece will crack
[22:15:36] <zeeshan> i need to bend that top piece
[22:15:41] <zeeshan> from a straight piece
[22:16:26] <XXCoder> is there any metal crappier than alum and cheaper?
[22:16:31] <XXCoder> and easily recastable
[22:16:32] <newtolinuxcnc> i want to use the "over heating" error output from the drivers to stop the machine.
[22:16:34] <zeeshan> steel :P
[22:16:34] <zeeshan> haha
[22:17:01] <newtolinuxcnc> someone hear me?
[22:17:26] <XXCoder> I do, just not expert :)
[22:17:40] <XXCoder> read rather, hearing just notnthing I do lol
[22:17:47] <zeeshan> i dont understand your q
[22:18:00] <zeeshan> you're trying to hook up limit switches into one pin of your parallel port
[22:18:02] <zeeshan> whats the question?
[22:18:56] <Tom_itx> make the final one from Ti
[22:19:09] <Tom_itx> and swiss cheese it to lighten it
[22:20:20] <Tom_itx> the outlaw guys would go so far as to use hollow Ti bolts to save weight
[22:20:44] <newtolinuxcnc> zeeshan: yes this is one question, the other question is "there is a sperate "error" input for miscellaneous stuff. like over heating.
[22:20:52] <Tom_itx> besides... who really needs brakes anyway?
[22:21:10] <Tom_itx> newtolinuxcnc, not specifically no
[22:21:17] <pcw_home> newtolinuxcnc man motion
[22:21:50] <Tom_itx> pcw_home, i sprung for the itx version of the ASRock board to try on the mill
[22:22:14] <Tom_itx> so i'll have one of each
[22:22:15] <pcw_home> the J18/1900?
[22:22:19] <Tom_itx> 1900
[22:23:18] <zeeshan> this isnt a brake pedal
[22:23:19] <zeeshan> :-)
[22:23:44] <Tom_itx> what is it then? it looks like a clutch brake assembly
[22:23:50] <zeeshan> clutch pedal
[22:24:09] <Tom_itx> looks like both to me
[22:24:17] <newtolinuxcnc> i have physical switches, and inductive switches. the normal operation work with the inductive switches, but is something happed, and the machine hit the mecanical limit switche it will shut down the power to the machine, in this case i want to stop also the program.
[22:24:22] <newtolinuxcnc> how i can do it?
[22:24:29] <zeeshan> thats the pedal shifted forward
[22:24:33] <zeeshan> i was trying different configs
[22:24:39] <Tom_itx> oh
[22:24:45] <Tom_itx> well make up your mind..
[22:25:08] <zeeshan> i wish i had a planer
