[00:37:03] <Tom_itx> PetefromTn_ gonna do the plumbing next?
[00:39:12] <Tom_itx> it's funny how ppl fix all the things wrong just when they're gonna move
[00:39:24] <Tom_itx> they move
[00:39:34] <Tom_itx> and fix all the things they don't like about the next one
[00:45:27] <malcom2073> Sweat equity!
[00:52:21] <PetefromTn_> sorry guys
[00:52:27] <PetefromTn_> had to put my kids to bed
[00:52:44] <PetefromTn_> but yeah we are doing electrical/plumbing/AC/you name it LOL
[00:53:04] <PetefromTn_> just trying to get the house finished to either sell or enjoy personally hehe
[00:53:15] <PetefromTn_> worked my ass off today all over the damn house
[00:53:45] <PetefromTn_> even vacuumed the pool and cleaned the deck/backyard
[00:56:52] <PetefromTn_> Oh and actually we have been FIXING all the things wrong for over 8 years now ;)
[01:04:42] <t12> i've been doing alot of that
[01:04:45] <t12> silly wooden houses
[01:05:17] <PetefromTn_> I know right... we need stainless or something ;)
[01:05:17] <t12> i wish i had a giant concretebox house
[01:05:48] <Tom_itx> container homes
[01:06:00] <t12> with concrete floors i could have a real shop!
[01:06:01] <PetefromTn_> isn't every house a container?
[01:06:02] <t12> with real machines!
[01:06:23] <PetefromTn_> it's funny the guy who came to look at the house today
[01:06:26] <Tom_itx> alot of ppl are converting them to homes
[01:06:40] <PetefromTn_> he walked out into the shop and took one look at all the machines and stuff
[01:06:59] <PetefromTn_> and was like...I bet this would be a great garage to convert into living space LOL
[01:07:09] <Tom_itx> hah!
[01:07:11] <t12> lollll
[01:07:19] <t12> wow this place would be great without all the machines!
[01:07:19] <PetefromTn_> I almost fell on the floor hehe
[01:07:20] <t12> burn with fire
[01:07:29] <PetefromTn_> but he was dead serious
[01:07:50] <PetefromTn_> he was also wanting to know what the huge attick above it looked like so he could make THAT living space as well...
[01:07:51] <t12> the american household design
[01:07:54] <t12> i find totally absurd
[01:08:31] <PetefromTn_> I swear for me I would love to find a nice older 2 story manufacturing building
[01:08:41] <PetefromTn_> make the first floor nothing but shop space/office space
[01:08:45] <t12> ya
[01:08:49] <PetefromTn_> and make the entire second floor my home
[01:08:52] <t12> my current dream facility is
[01:09:00] <t12> concrete floors, loading dock, forklift
[01:09:02] <PetefromTn_> that is a perfect house to me hehe
[01:09:22] <t12> hard to do in SF
[01:09:50] <t12> housing out here has reached total insanity
[01:10:01] <t12> people buying 1500sqft condos for like 2m
[01:10:10] <PetefromTn_> housing out there has gone BEYOND total insanity if you ask me
[01:10:20] <PetefromTn_> I used to live there
[01:10:22] <t12> we've bent time and space with our housing situation
[01:10:26] <PetefromTn_> both in norcal and in socal
[01:11:52] <t12> i think its just become rich people moving in
[01:12:03] <t12> i dont think anyone buys property like this on salary
[01:12:21] <PetefromTn_> hehe not MY salary anyways
[01:12:42] <Tom_itx> wtf is salary?
[01:12:52] * Tom_itx googles it
[01:12:54] <PetefromTn_> that too
[01:12:54] <Tom_itx> :D
[01:13:18] <Tom_itx> self employed either work or starve
[01:13:38] <malcom2073> I love being self employed, but sometimes it'd be nice to have a garunteed paycheck
[01:14:00] <PetefromTn_> ain't it the truth
[01:14:00] <Tom_itx> it has perks
[01:14:48] <Tom_itx> not sure how many times i've fired myself but it never seemed to have an effect
[01:15:33] <PetefromTn_> I probably should fire my lazy ass hehe might get something done around here

[01:24:22] <bobo> PetefromTn_:" I swear for me I would love to find a nice older 2 story manufacturing building "------- If you are serious , consder also a group of like minded also getting together for a building . And I might be one of 'em .
[01:25:12] <PetefromTn_> heh I appreciate that man I do... but we need to sell our house first and then we will be moving back to Florida. If it ever freaking sells.
[01:26:35] <PetefromTn_> I think the more we have weekends like this where we take care of all the little things in the house that need addressed sooner or later it will reach a point where people might want to buy it. Lots of folks do not want a project or have not the skills/money to complete one
[01:27:07] <bobo> there are mfg. buildings ,also in Florida.
[01:28:21] <PetefromTn_> sure
[01:28:39] <PetefromTn_> the other problem with it is talking my wife into living above a shop for her home ;)
[01:30:29] <redlegion> You guys have experience with polyworks or FARO arms?
[01:32:02] <Tom_itx> what's the real question?
[01:32:28] <bobo> Pete There are single story p;aces that one could add living space above or beside . To me ,the majot problem is zoneing .
[01:38:17] <PetefromTn_> yeah well I will just wait and hope the house sells for what I am asking or close to it. It's a cape Cod style house so the layout is different from what most people are used to so I have to find the right buyer here... It will happen or it won't either way we are comfy and happy LOL
[01:41:52] <PetefromTn_> looking forward to getting the new flowmeter and other tig welding stuff I ordered the other day. Hopefully it will help me be a bit less magoo here
[01:42:22] <PetefromTn_> https://knoxville.craigslist.org/tls/5162730343.html wish I wasn't broke again this looks like a decent deal...

[02:20:56] <bobo> PetefromTn: i think NPR radio had a news bite on the "new -wonderful" apartments made from old mfg.buildings in Nashvill. you might show them to your better half ,as a plant a seed idea type thing .
[02:23:13] <PetefromTn_> Oh yeah I will have to check that out. We watched a show on one of the DIY channels one time that featured several homes like that and while she kinda liked the idea of having TONS of space upstairs she said she did not know how it would be not having a TYPICAL house front IE friends and family being welcoming etc.
[02:24:25] <Tom_itx> they don't wanna hang out in your machine shop!?!?
[02:24:32] <PetefromTn_> I mean like I said I sure could do it and I am sure we could make a large empty space livable in a myriad of ways but I dunno about the family. Maybe if it was an old firehouse and had one of those poles you slide downstairs with hehe
[02:25:38] <PetefromTn_> actually my wife is very understanding about all of the schtuff I do out there. I am a lucky guy to have such an understanding wife when it comes to buying tools and moving heavy equipment into our home etc. Most women would be just the opposite I think
[02:28:47] <Wolf_> easy to tell I’m single, my mini mill and mini lathe are in my kitchen
[02:28:58] <PetefromTn_> heh
[02:29:40] <PetefromTn_> at one point I rented a house and in the spare bedroom I had an RF45 bedmill and a 12x36 asian lathe along with a shop press, ginders, sanders all in one bedroom.
[02:32:02] <Wolf_> nice
[02:35:33] <zeeshan|2> bobo: that rotary axis
[02:35:37] <zeeshan|2> is on the wrong axis
[02:35:41] <zeeshan|2> i need a B axis
[02:35:45] <zeeshan|2> not C
[02:36:02] <zeeshan|2> im not sure if you can rotate it
[02:36:02] <bobo> Just watch double boost mix up pancake batter , I think that women come in as many varieties as men ,

[02:37:24] <bobo> zeeshan you always have problems with my wild ideas
[02:37:33] <zeeshan|2> :(
[02:37:34] <zeeshan|2> sorry!
[02:37:52] <Tom_itx> yeah he don't like mine much either
[02:38:16] <bobo> no need to be sorry
[02:39:04] <Tom_itx> zeeshan|2 what you workin on now?
[02:40:40] <zeeshan|2> was with the client today
[02:40:42] <zeeshan|2> working on that e-cig
[02:40:44] <Tom_itx> did you get your handle modeled?
[02:40:50] <zeeshan|2> yes
[02:40:55] <zeeshan|2> its coming together pretty cool
[02:40:55] <zeeshan|2> http://i.imgur.com/ZsaVaIS.jpg
[02:41:03] <zeeshan|2> now it looks even more like turd
[02:41:06] <zeeshan|2> cause its brown
[02:41:06] <zeeshan|2> haha
[02:41:17] <zeeshan|2> i still gotta blend in the top things
[02:41:19] <zeeshan|2> around the cylinder
[02:41:42] <Tom_itx> what'd they say about it?
[02:41:44] <Wolf_> but, its a shiny turd
[02:41:47] <zeeshan|2> he loves it
[02:41:50] <zeeshan|2> thats all that matters
[02:41:59] <zeeshan|2> hes in the community that deals with these products
[02:42:05] <zeeshan|2> so i guess his opinion is all that matters at the end of the day right?
[02:42:09] <zeeshan|2> im no expert in it.
[02:42:17] <zeeshan|2> i can just tell if things are ergonomic or not
[02:42:20] <zeeshan|2> and how much itll cost to make
[02:42:48] <Wolf_> I’ll stick with my box with a battery in it
[02:43:08] <zeeshan|2> wolf apparentlky people spend 600 bux on these things
[02:43:14] <zeeshan|2> its some exotic stuff
[02:43:14] <zeeshan|2> shrug
[02:43:57] <zeeshan|2> http://i.imgur.com/S6PJDFC.jpg
[02:43:59] <zeeshan|2> another shot
[02:44:14] <XXCoder> whats that thing
[02:44:20] <Tom_itx> it's still a shiny turd
[02:44:23] <Wolf_> fun, I was going to mill something but turns out I’m out of 1/8” end mills...
[02:45:00] <PetefromTn_> looks like someone dropped their monocle in the dog doo ;)
[02:45:44] <Wolf_> yeah, I’m not seeing the point of the odd ass shape
[02:45:55] <zeeshan|2> its an ergonomic shape
[02:45:56] <bobo> Ok zeeshan , if you are so smart (BG) , what axis would that rotary table be if useing the Horz mill axis ?
[02:45:58] <zeeshan|2> ill tell you that much!
[02:46:13] <zeeshan|2> bobo: i cant answer your q, cause im not so smart
[02:47:24] <PetefromTn_> I'm tired....just not tired enough to go to bed heh
[02:47:37] <zeeshan|2> http://i.imgur.com/JFdcLlq.jpg
[02:47:42] <zeeshan|2> in the end itll be made out of this kind of wood
[02:47:53] <zeeshan|2> so itll look less like a turd
[02:48:04] <XXCoder> still uncertain what the heckt hat thing is
[02:48:13] <XXCoder> looks like sauce desperator or something
[02:48:14] <zeeshan|2> e-cigarrette!
[02:48:15] <trentster> Hi all - what kind of bit should I be looking to buy to chamfer the edge of cuts along aluminium or hole edges?
[02:48:16] <PetefromTn_> what the hell is that?
[02:48:18] <XXCoder> dexperate whatever
[02:48:27] <trentster> normall chamferring bit as used in a drill press?
[02:48:33] <zeeshan|2> PetefromTn_: i love stablized wood dude
[02:48:37] <zeeshan|2> never worked on it before
[02:48:40] <zeeshan|2> it looks really cool
[02:48:43] <zeeshan|2> he gave me some extra off cuts
[02:48:50] <zeeshan|2> im gonna make a handle out of it for my knife
[02:48:50] <XXCoder> ecigs eh
[02:48:53] <PetefromTn_> its purty
[02:48:56] <PetefromTn_> cuts easy
[02:48:58] <zeeshan|2> yea man
[02:48:59] <cradek> trentster: some mill-drills have 90 degree points that are perfect for that
[02:49:21] <XXCoder> scientists showed it causes cancer faster than normal cigs due to fine particles.
[02:49:27] <zeeshan|2> chamfering an edge of a part will blow up
[02:49:29] <trentster> cradek: yeah still trying to understand when one would need a certain angle vs another
[02:49:32] <zeeshan|2> the chamfer bit lol
[02:49:38] <zeeshan|2> trentster: easy!
[02:49:42] <zeeshan|2> your geometry calls for it
[02:49:51] <cradek> trentster:
http://www.use-enco.com/CGI/INSRIT?PARTPG=INSRAR2&PMAKA=320-1420&PMPXNO=946467
[02:49:58] <zeeshan|2> also the helix angle effects the chatter youll get
[02:50:03] <zeeshan|2> cause youre changing the engagement angle
[02:50:33] <XXCoder> zeeshan|2: looks awesome anyway
[02:50:41] <trentster> cradek: thanks looking
[02:50:42] <cradek> often you want 45 degrees, so a 90 degree point gives you that
[02:50:59] <zeeshan|2> XXCoder: thanks man
[02:51:09] <zeeshan|2> im excited to machine these after design is finalized
[02:51:19] <zeeshan|2> i really want a 4th axis for this job though
[02:51:25] <zeeshan|2> cant find anything cheap
[02:51:33] <trentster> cradek: so these would be totally useless for cnc chamferring right?
http://www.banggood.com/5pcs-6mm-19mm-Titanium-Countersinks-Chamfering-Cutter-Drill-Press-p-961909.html
[02:51:38] <XXCoder> zeeshan|2: you can mill one
[02:51:42] <zeeshan|2> trentster: no
[02:51:43] <zeeshan|2> those work
[02:51:46] <XXCoder> using some kind of motor and encoder
[02:51:48] <cradek> yes pretty useless
[02:51:48] <zeeshan|2> but you gotta run them slower feed
[02:51:51] <XXCoder> then add axis
[02:52:08] <cradek> those are really for a drill press where the work isn't clamped down
[02:52:09] <zeeshan|2> XXCoder: i was thinking an order of 10
[02:52:18] <XXCoder> zeeshan|2: since its wood all you need is reasonably rigid and accuracy
[02:52:18] <zeeshan|2> will help pay for 4th axis
[02:52:28] <zeeshan|2> yea but im not buying an axis just for this job
[02:52:31] <zeeshan|2> i want it for steel too
[02:52:37] <XXCoder> zeeshan|2: it is small right?
[02:52:45] <zeeshan|2> yea about 2.5"x3.75"
[02:52:45] <XXCoder> you could jug rig something
[02:52:54] <zeeshan|2> lazy though man
[02:52:56] <XXCoder> use some stepper
[02:53:01] <zeeshan|2> oh
[02:53:01] <cradek> ever notice how the work moves in a circle when you use one on a drill press? they're meant to rub
[02:53:03] <zeeshan|2> for 4th axis
[02:53:09] <XXCoder> keep stress low and it will work
[02:53:19] <zeeshan|2> haha youre saying
[02:53:22] <zeeshan|2> just bolt it to a stepper?
[02:53:26] <zeeshan|2> direct drive?
[02:53:26] <zeeshan|2> :D
[02:53:30] <XXCoder> make sure room for 4 inches or so
[02:53:35] <zeeshan|2> not a bad idea
[02:53:37] <trentster> zeeshan|2: wow thats an interesting looking picture - just jumped into channel and have not read back log - what the heck is it? Cigar Lighter? :P
[02:53:41] <XXCoder> zeeshan|2: kinda but yeah
[02:53:49] <XXCoder> you need to make sure motor is aligned and rigid enough
[02:53:50] <zeeshan|2> trentster: similar :P
[02:54:11] <PetefromTn_> Gn8 folks
[02:54:13] <zeeshan|2> nite pete
[02:54:20] <XXCoder> you has a mill, mill a larg-ish mount for motor and mount it
[02:54:26] -!- PetefromTn_ has quit [Quit: I'm Outta here!!]
[02:54:27] <XXCoder> indicate make sure its nice and stright
[02:54:30] <zeeshan|2> thats not a bad idea
[02:54:34] <zeeshan|2> id need to mount a 4 jaw chuck
[02:54:36] <zeeshan|2> to the stepper though
[02:54:40] <zeeshan|2> but i cant drive a stepepr
[02:54:43] <zeeshan|2> i can only drive servo
[02:54:45] <zeeshan|2> cause i got 7i77
[02:54:52] <XXCoder> has a extra servo?
[02:54:53] <zeeshan|2> ill need to find servo with built in encoder
[02:54:54] <zeeshan|2> no
[02:54:55] <zeeshan|2> :(
[02:55:02] <zeeshan|2> i do have the drive though
[02:56:02] <trentster> zeeshan|2: seriously tho - what is it?
[02:56:29] <bobo> you have more drive than i do
[02:56:32] <zeeshan|2> vaporizer!!
[02:56:38] <zeeshan|2> e-cig
[02:56:47] <trentster> aah
[02:56:50] <zeeshan|2> a log of shit!!
[02:56:50] <zeeshan|2> haha
[02:56:51] <zeeshan|2> jk
[02:57:01] <zeeshan|2> i reallty like the look of it
[02:57:02] <XXCoder> fossilized shit
[02:57:03] <zeeshan|2> even though im an outsider
[02:57:13] <XXCoder> get one of fossil scat and mill it into e-cig
[02:57:13] <trentster> its like a e-cig for ravers!
[02:57:18] <zeeshan|2> haha xrr
[02:57:20] <zeeshan|2> XXCoder:
[02:57:31] <zeeshan|2> i really hope this guy sells a lot
[02:57:37] <zeeshan|2> cause guess who'll be making it?!
[02:57:44] <zeeshan|2> he already is asking for 40
[02:57:54] <zeeshan|2> and things he can sell 20-30 per month
[02:57:59] <zeeshan|2> its a nice steady income from it
[02:58:02] <XXCoder> yep
[02:58:14] <zeeshan|2> but it can also go bad, he might end at the 40
[02:58:32] <XXCoder> yeah
[02:58:59] <XXCoder> well you may be able to figure how to rig up short term 4th axis
[02:59:09] <zeeshan|2> if i could find a rotary table
[02:59:10] <trentster> zeeshan|2: did you make the metal part of it yourself - if so thats pretty amazing work
[02:59:10] <zeeshan|2> id feel better
[02:59:17] <zeeshan|2> trentster: no
[02:59:19] <zeeshan|2> thats standard stuff
[02:59:24] <XXCoder> zeeshan|2: there is nice alternate though
[02:59:30] <XXCoder> do side a time
[02:59:31] <zeeshan|2> its not worth to make it since those are mass produced
[02:59:45] <zeeshan|2> XXCoder: haha thats how i have it programmed for the prototype i gotta make next weekend
[02:59:46] <trentster> aah thought so - I love the slices on the one on the right
[02:59:49] <zeeshan|2> but that'll be brutal for 40
[03:00:10] <zeeshan|2> cause it looks like 1hour machining time per side
[03:00:14] <zeeshan|2> with 10 tho step over
[03:00:15] <XXCoder> too bad no encoder for that servo
[03:00:26] <zeeshan|2> but if i had 4 axis
[03:00:30] <zeeshan|2> i could walk away for 4 hours
[03:00:32] <zeeshan|2> and do something else
[03:00:37] <zeeshan|2> rather than flip the part
[03:00:42] <zeeshan|2> and maybe optimize the tool paths better too
[03:00:45] <XXCoder> get a ebook
[03:00:49] <zeeshan|2> haha
[03:00:59] <XXCoder> you cant belive how much I read at work
[03:01:07] <zeeshan|2> well i can do research work
[03:01:09] <zeeshan|2> while its going
[03:01:13] <XXCoder> probably 80% of time for longer run cycle
[03:01:23] <zeeshan|2> XXCoder: do you have to inspect your parts
[03:01:33] <XXCoder> yeah
[03:01:38] <zeeshan|2> trentster: if you have those regular chamfer bits
[03:01:39] <XXCoder> some jobs is so simple though
[03:01:42] <zeeshan|2> you can use em on the cnc mill
[03:01:47] <XXCoder> literally take me seconds to do so
[03:01:48] <zeeshan|2> i have done that in a bind
[03:01:56] <XXCoder> for example disk engrave
[03:02:00] <zeeshan|2> but they are very easy to chatter
[03:02:04] <XXCoder> all I need to do is look if its good

[03:02:19] <zeeshan|2> this is what i use now
[03:02:19] <XXCoder> and once a while confirm its still between readable - .003"

[03:02:59] <zeeshan|2> XXCoder: ah cool
[03:03:06] <zeeshan|2> when i was working at this one company
[03:03:15] <zeeshan|2> and machine operator called in sick and i had to fill in for an hour
[03:03:29] <zeeshan|2> we had some serious "spc"
[03:03:32] <zeeshan|2> checks
[03:03:40] <zeeshan|2> statistical process control that is
[03:03:51] <zeeshan|2> so youd have to do a certain bunch of measurements to ensure process was in control
[03:03:54] <zeeshan|2> i hated that stuff :P
[03:03:55] <trentster> zeeshan|2: thats chamferring bit looks droolworthy - must be darn expensive
[03:04:03] <zeeshan|2> trentster: which one, the first?
[03:04:04] <zeeshan|2> or second
[03:04:30] <trentster> supertoolinc one
[03:04:44] <zeeshan|2> nah
[03:04:45] <XXCoder> zeeshan|2: interesting

[03:05:13] <zeeshan|2> you get 2 tools in 1
[03:05:16] <zeeshan|2> so its really half the price
[03:05:48] <zeeshan|2> (and solid carbide!)
[03:06:19] <cradek> maritool has more cool stuff each time I look
[03:06:21] <XXCoder> curves is expensive op
[03:06:25] <cradek> (they have 90 degree too)
[03:06:39] <zeeshan|2> cradek: id buy from mari
[03:06:44] <cradek> I have, a lot
[03:06:45] <zeeshan|2> but i buy all my stuff from this local surplus
[03:06:51] <zeeshan|2> they have brand new stuff!
[03:06:59] <zeeshan|2> im not sharing the site though
[03:07:00] <zeeshan|2> :P

[03:58:49] <XXCoder> hey
[03:59:47] <deep_pink_> we cut now the fist cut with the band saw
[04:00:05] <deep_pink_> work very nice
[04:00:11] <deep_pink_> but nooooiiiisyyy
[04:06:38] <Wolf_> weird, mine are all quiet, except for the 14” craftsman one
[04:07:01] <deep_pink_> I has a gear
[04:07:05] <deep_pink_> it*
[04:07:07] <XXCoder> deep_pink_: your blade troque set?
[04:07:38] <Wolf_> even my wilton is quiet, and its geared, looks just like
https://www.hgrinc.com/productDetail/Fabrication/USED-WILTON-HORIZONTAL-BANDSAW/04151270019
[04:07:44] <deep_pink_> this is the portable HF
[04:08:26] <deep_pink_> just 79
[04:08:27] <Wolf_> both of my porta bands are quiet as well, but they aren’t harbor junk
[04:08:29] <deep_pink_> $
[04:08:54] <deep_pink_> we try it, and it work so far very nice,
[04:22:09] -!- bobo has quit [Quit: Page closed]
[04:22:20] <furrywolf> hooked power up to the mill, started playing with it... Y power feed works, X works only to the left, Z worked for the first few tries then stopped. then the handwheel stopped working too. grrrrrrr.
[04:22:48] <Wolf_> damn ya broke it already
[04:22:54] <Wolf_> :D
[04:23:07] <furrywolf> looks like a crown gear is loose on its shaft. it's held down by a nut. someone goobered it with weld, poorly, attempting to "improve" it, instead making the problem far worse.
[04:23:57] <furrywolf> I also learned if you stop and start the spindle at 1800rpm more than a couple times in a row the motor starter trips. :)
[04:25:28] -!- mhaberler [mhaberler!~mhaberler@ns.stiwoll.mah.priv.at] has joined #linuxcnc
[04:25:29] <Wolf_> sounds like a piece of junk, trade ya a harbor freight x1 mill that mostly works
[04:28:08] <furrywolf> I think your mill fits on the table of mine...
[04:28:40] <Wolf_> probably, could even get the top of the spindle in a collet I bet
[04:28:51] <furrywolf> lol
[04:29:11] <XXCoder> fur got pic? curious lol
[04:30:28] <furrywolf> of?
[04:30:40] <XXCoder> mill
[04:31:57] <furrywolf> http://humboldt.craigslist.org/tls/5163013489.html
[04:32:57] <XXCoder> interesting
[04:33:03] <XXCoder> definitely need elbow grease
[04:34:10] <furrywolf> it's bigger than those photos make it look.
[04:34:15] <furrywolf> 6.5ft tall
[04:34:43] <XXCoder> it looked like it was under head height ~5'
[04:35:12] <furrywolf> yes. hence why I said that. :P
[04:37:02] <XXCoder> so plan to work on it eh
[04:40:32] <furrywolf> the parts diagram shows a lock washer under the nut. I did not see a lock washer under the nut. instead I saw piss-poor goober welds on top of the nut. sounds like it came loose once, the washer is probably sitting inside the base somewhere, and rather than fix it properly, someone made it worse.
[04:40:42] -!- SEL [SEL!~SEL@net77-43-27-64.mclink.it] has joined #linuxcnc
[04:41:00] <furrywolf> and in the process of goobering the nut, they burnt through two of the oil lines, only one of which they fixed.
[04:41:10] <XXCoder> jeez
[04:41:15] <XXCoder> dont they read manual
[04:41:28] <XXCoder> and washer? it can be made in many ways if its lost
[04:41:52] <XXCoder> lathe, milling, even router.
[04:42:50] <furrywolf> ... hardware store.
[04:43:09] <XXCoder> im assuming nearest one is million miles away
[04:43:54] <Wolf_> lock washer… shop misc fastener bin
[04:44:54] * furrywolf has no shop
[04:48:43] <XXCoder> anyway point is theres no real excuse
[04:48:51] <XXCoder> its just a disk
[04:49:07] <XXCoder> actually lock washer
[04:49:16] <XXCoder> but thats stock
[04:49:25] <furrywolf> maybe. it could well have been a flat one with tabs on the side and a slot for the key or something.
[04:49:33] <furrywolf> the picture in the manual scan I got is useless.
[04:49:53] <furrywolf> that's kinda what it looks like though.
[04:52:16] <furrywolf> http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTIwMFgxNjAw/z/ISAAAOxydUJTMIrm/$_35.JPG that variety
[04:52:47] <XXCoder> assuming cant buy, just mill it then bend tabs
[04:56:44] <furrywolf> it's annoyingly hard to get to. I suspect this is why the last person fixed it wrong.
[05:00:17] <deep_pink_> someone know about hinge like door hinge but without sideways play?
[05:00:40] <furrywolf> double tapered roller bearings. :P
[05:02:08] <deep_pink_> for the band-saw

[05:09:04] <deep_pink_> something like that ^
[05:09:12] <deep_pink_> XXCoder: furrywolf ?
[05:09:55] <XXCoder> dunno
[05:09:56] <Wolf_> oh, to make it a horizontal saw
[05:09:57] -!- SEL has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[05:10:41] <deep_pink_> Wolf_: exactly

[05:11:53] -!- SEL [SEL!~SEL@net77-43-27-64.mclink.it] has joined #linuxcnc
[05:11:54] <Wolf_> only thing I can think of would be to get a hinge for a heavy door, one that has bushing/bearings for the load, pull the pin and replace it with a bolt and spring to give it some preload
[05:12:32] <Wolf_> but at that point you might as well make a proper pivot with angular contact bearings
[05:12:55] <deep_pink_> Wolf_: what do you mean?
[05:12:58] <furrywolf> <furrywolf> double tapered roller bearings. :P
[05:12:59] <furrywolf> bbl
[05:13:02] <deep_pink_> "proper pivot with angular contact bearings"
[05:13:21] <fenn> like a bicycle fork
[05:13:45] <fenn> the part the handlebar attaches to is very smooth and precisely constrained
[05:14:03] <fenn> otherwise the wheel would bounce around and would be hard to steer
[05:14:04] <XXCoder> fenn: good to know if you has bicycle scrap and need that lol
[05:14:06] <Wolf_> or wheel bearings, spindle bearings esc
[05:14:25] <fenn> i made an air compressor out of a bicycle once :P
[05:14:26] <deep_pink_> where i can get tham?
[05:14:46] <deep_pink_> I pay for the band saw 79$..
[05:14:55] <Wolf_> bearing store?
[05:15:00] <XXCoder> fenn: I challenge you, make one again, but this time make sure it is still ridable lol
[05:15:05] <deep_pink_> and I'm going to use it just to cut stock...
[05:15:48] <deep_pink_> It's not have to be very precise
[05:16:31] <fenn> roller skate bearings would be good enough
[05:16:38] <deep_pink_> I'm just looking for somthing slightly better than door hinge
[05:16:58] <Wolf_> http://amzn.com/B00B9J0966 need the right door hinge

[05:17:52] <Wolf_> commercial door hinges are rated for fire doors
[05:18:14] <fenn> deep_pink_: you probably want a piano hinge, it's like a continuous strip of door hinge material
[05:18:36] <fenn> a smaller hinge would have less play but you do need some strength
[05:18:43] <deep_pink_> fenn: I dont like them.
[05:18:51] <deep_pink_> I have some here..
[05:18:58] <Wolf_> the hinge I linked is for like 150lbs + doors
[05:20:04] -!- furrywolf has quit [Ping timeout: 250 seconds]
[05:21:04] <deep_pink_> Wolf_: I think the I tea with the screw with the spring is the best,
[05:21:58] <Wolf_> well, one thing I forgot, the commercial door hinges are riveted pins
[05:22:03] <fenn> you could use your mill to drill out the hinge to a more precise dimension, and put a precision pin in it
[05:22:54] <deep_pink_> the white part going to made out of PVC,,
[05:23:07] <Wolf_> get the set of hinges, mount the first one to both parts, put a preload on half of it, then mount the 2nd hinge
[05:23:17] <deep_pink_> so It's not going to be super acurate anyway...
[05:24:35] <Wolf_> you do know the one you linked is a auto closing one right?
[05:24:51] <deep_pink_> yes,,
[05:25:17] <fenn> heh you could use a hydraulic door closer to regulate the bandsaw's closing speed
[05:25:39] <Wolf_> saw weight + 2 spring hinges will be too much down pressure for a porta ban
[05:25:43] <Wolf_> band*
[05:25:55] <fenn> :(
[05:26:41] <Wolf_> my horizontal saw has a spring to take some of the load off the closing
[05:28:14] <fenn> the hydraulics are to reduce the load, not increase it
[05:28:29] <fenn> well something like that
[05:28:42] <Wolf_> ahh, I get ya, same thing on my wilton

[06:23:03] <Wolf_> how hard is it to machine a ball screw shaft end…
[06:25:44] <archivist> easy on the right machine, hard on the wrong
[06:26:15] <fenn> usually they are case hardened so you need to grind off the threads first
[06:26:36] <Wolf_> so lathe + tool post grinder? or?
[06:26:43] <archivist> needs a collet and through spindle clearance
[06:27:27] <Wolf_> :/ don’t thing my pos will do a collet
[06:28:02] <fenn> can use a chuck too, actually a 4 jaw might be best because you can adjust runout
[06:28:04] <archivist> or a long bed with a steady
[06:28:43] <fenn> don't need tool post grinder, can use bench grinder
[06:28:50] <Wolf_> it will fit in my 7x10… and I can 4 jaw it
[06:30:21] <archivist> dont let the shaft whip and get bent while working on it

[06:39:08] <fenn> they use an induction heater to anneal the end but a lot of people wrap wet rags around the part they don't want to get hot and use a propane torch
[06:39:54] <XXCoder> wet rag is bad idea
[06:39:55] <fenn> also you need to indicate on the shallow part of the thread by setting your lathe to threading mode
[06:40:06] <XXCoder> but same time its better for COOLING part
[06:42:38] <XXCoder> nice
[06:42:52] <XXCoder> using rod to keep bearings inside as roll into ball screw
[06:43:11] <fenn> it's a cardboard tube, all ball nuts come that way

[06:45:23] <fenn> i thought it might be easier to just drill a hole into the end and insert a pre-machined pin
[06:45:48] <fenn> with glue or brazing
[06:45:48] <XXCoder> is it just me or is youtube kinda broken for yiy guys too?
[06:46:56] <Wolf_> well, its a 1405 screw, and one end is turned down to 10mm dia for about 28mm
[06:47:08] <Wolf_> smooth, no threads or anything

[06:49:21] <fenn> i don't know what 1405 is but there are a lot of google hits for 1605
[06:49:46] <deep_pink__> 14mm ballsc
[06:50:00] <deep_pink__> 14mm diameter 5mm pitch
[06:50:51] <Wolf_> yeah, its a THK ball screw I have had laying around for a while
[06:51:55] <Wolf_> 14mm outside, 5mm pitch, rolled ball screw with a BNT type (square) nut

[06:58:56] <fenn> yes you could machine a thing that clamps on the end and preloads the bearings, since it's already turned down
[06:59:26] <deep_pink> moin Deejay
[07:00:04] <fenn> it would have to be clamped really solidly

[07:03:32] -!- quiqua has quit [Quit: quiqua]
[07:03:49] <deep_pink> I need to clamp it some how in 45 deg.
[07:06:03] <Wolf_> fenn: what about threading it then pinning the two parts together
[07:07:09] <Wolf_> but… I think i’m stuck machining it either way, cause I need to shorten it too lol
[07:07:42] <XXCoder> enlarge your machine
[07:07:49] <XXCoder> easier? ;)
[07:09:22] <Wolf_> 750mm Z axis, yeah :D stretch the column right?
[07:09:42] <XXCoder> lol
[07:11:34] <archivist> I did, I put a box under the column
[07:12:06] <Wolf_> if I was smart I wouldnt be dicking around with the Z axis stuff and should be focused on making/parts ordering the x/y stuff lol
[07:12:40] <Wolf_> archivist: I was planning on doing that when I get the extended tables for the x1

[09:59:18] <trentster> got blast waves and much higher quality plus sound
[09:59:41] * Loetmichel wonders what they had stored there
[09:59:50] <Loetmichel> that was quite a BIGbang
[10:00:25] <trentster> mainly hundreds of tons of sodium cyanide
[10:01:46] <trentster> Think it was a ABS Plastic factory and its used for the manufacturing process.
[10:02:27] <archivist> was a dangerous chemicals storage and forwarding
[10:03:22] <Wolf_> the gif loop was close enough that you could see the shipping containers flying from the blast wave
[10:03:23] <Loetmichel> "dangerouss chemicals" ... confirmed i think
[10:03:24] <Loetmichel> :-)
[10:04:12] <trentster> Anyone need a used car?

[10:07:37] <trentster> one of the blast craters has a radius of about 190M - so its a pretty significant explosion by any standard
[10:08:31] <archivist> small compared to the local crater here :)
[10:09:07] <trentster> yeah - I guess that one was not man made - "space made" right
[10:09:18] <archivist> tps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAF_Fauld_explosion
[10:09:20] <trentster> or you talking about nuke crater?
[10:09:40] <archivist> I am just a few miles from that
[10:11:15] <trentster> wow! - that was 4000 tons of High Explosive bombs detonating and blast crater was 230M
[10:11:32] <trentster> So 190M for chemical accident is unbelievable

[10:14:01] <archivist> the chinese was above ground, the local was below, but it give one an impression of what happened here
[10:14:49] <Loetmichel> even more impressive to have a deep crater at all for a surface explosion
[10:15:01] <Loetmichel> that must have been some quite volatile chemical
[10:16:14] <trentster> yeah - what is really evident about the force of the blast is how shipping containers were tossed about and crumpled like tissue paper by the shock wave itself - can be seen in these photos
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-china-33844086
[10:18:25] <trentster> I think over 30 000 brand new cars burnt there. Enough so that Toyota/hyundai world wide shipments are effected as that is the major car shipping port in China.

[10:29:16] <trentster> Loetmichel: Its hard to get real facts out of China with the media blackout and all, but the chemicals involved appear to be mainly Sodium Cyanide and I think the firefighters sprayed the first fire-fighters sprayed the flames with water it produced "acetylene" - which is not so good for fire suppression :P

[13:12:26] <trentster> Hi all - Planning on buying new spindle today and deciding on a couple of options and need advice. Any reason why not to use a Chinese 80mm Spindle mount? the one you have to drill holes in yourself for mounting?
[13:14:07] <trentster> Also in regards to attaching a DIY "Mist Coolant Lubrication Spray" what should I be looking for in terms of air flow? a little fridge compressor?

[13:26:59] <Wolf_> read somewhere that fridge compressor won’t keep up if its constant misting, ok if you are running pulsed misting
[13:27:58] <trentster> Wolf_: I have no clue about misting - up till now I have been following cutter with vacuum in one hand and spray coolant in the other - I hope to change that soon.
[13:28:50] <Wolf_> no idea here either, I was planning on doing flood cooling cause I like doing things the hard way
[13:29:00] <trentster> still trying to figure out what spindle I should be getting to replace current 400W one. There are so many options. I guess getting a square housing spindle will probably be the best option plus saves having to buy mounting brack

[13:34:30] <zeeshan|2> mist coolant is awesome
[13:34:37] <zeeshan|2> when you actually have dropplets
[13:34:41] <zeeshan|2> vs a pure mist
[13:34:57] <zeeshan|2> will destroy flood coolant in most scenarios

[16:05:46] <trentster> any opinions on this item?
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/2-2KW-WATER-COOLED-SPINDLE-MOTOR-2-2KW-VFD-FREQUENCY-VARIABLE-COOLE-MOTOR-GREAT-/331620565948
[16:05:59] <trentster> is it worth considering or a run for the hills kind of thing?
[16:07:40] <ssi> a bunch of people have reported success with them... I've never used one personally
[16:07:46] <CaptHindsight> trentster: are they local? if so then you can always exchange or return it if you get a bad one
[16:07:59] <zeeshan-lab> hey i was thinking the other day
[16:08:06] <ssi> oh shit zee's thinking again
[16:08:17] <zeeshan-lab> could you not chop the sine wave of asingle phase motor
[16:08:21] <zeeshan-lab> to contorl its speed
[16:08:27] <zeeshan-lab> like you prolly cant control it at low rpm
[16:08:35] <zeeshan-lab> but why cant you do it at medium speeds
[16:08:43] <ssi> um define single phase motor?
[16:08:47] <CaptHindsight> zeeshan-lab: you mean like a dimmer circuit?
[16:08:54] <ssi> AC induction motor?
[16:08:59] <zeeshan-lab> no CaptHindsight
[16:09:00] <ssi> or DC permanent magnet motor
[16:09:01] <zeeshan-lab> ssi: yes
[16:09:04] <zeeshan-lab> ac induction
[16:09:13] <zeeshan-lab> so imagine just a switch
[16:09:19] <zeeshan-lab> and you rapidly turning that switch on and off
[16:09:24] <zeeshan-lab> if the off duration is longer
[16:09:27] <ssi> I don't think that'll work
[16:09:29] <zeeshan-lab> it should slow down the motor
[16:09:31] <zeeshan-lab> why
[16:09:33] <CaptHindsight> yeah like a dimmer
[16:09:53] <zeeshan-lab> CaptHindsight: dimmer is adding resistance
[16:09:59] <CaptHindsight> nope
[16:10:00] <zeeshan-lab> im switching the 60 hz wave on and off rapidly
[16:10:31] <CaptHindsight> look at a ceiling fan speed controller, it does just that
[16:10:40] <ssi> you could change the speed by modulating the frequency you drive it with
[16:10:44] <CaptHindsight> or a dimmer for incandescent lighting
[16:10:57] <zeeshan-lab> so why cant you do the same principle to a motor
[16:11:03] <ssi> but I don't think that chopping 60hz ac is going to change the speed of the motor
[16:11:08] <ssi> it'll act more like a current limit
[16:11:43] <trentster> CaptHindsight: yeah they are shipped from local company ebay -but its just a sub chinese business with local stock
[16:12:00] <trentster> so only real benefit there is fast shipping
[16:12:02] <ssi> zeeshan-lab: my mom gave me a key machine yesterday
[16:12:05] <ssi> and a bunch of key blanks
[16:12:16] <zeeshan-lab> whatcha gonna rob
[16:12:19] <ssi> EVERYTHING
[16:12:26] <pcw_home> yeah lowingin the RMS voltage will drop the torque of a single phase motor and the the motor will lose sync and stall
[16:12:36] <trentster> ssi: do you know if they have 2 or 4 bearings?
[16:12:37] <pcw_home> lowering
[16:12:41] <ssi> trentster: no clue :/
[16:12:44] <CaptHindsight> http://www3.telus.net/Whalco/SDim.htm
[16:12:48] <trentster> as it does not say - just says german bearings
[16:13:17] <pcw_home> German brand probably :-)
[16:13:55] <zeeshan-lab> lol
[16:14:23] <CaptHindsight> trentster: if you end up with a good one it will be fine, if you end up with the one they dropped, didn't have all the parts for, bent shaft, dirty bearings etc return it
[16:15:42] <Loetmichel> trentster: ther is a bearing company in china that is called "german bearings".... honi soit qui mal y pense :-)
[16:15:59] <trentster> Loetmichel: really? or you kidding?
[16:16:14] <trentster> haha classic
[16:16:30] <CaptHindsight> just like the "100% Beef" co
[16:16:54] <trentster> CaptHindsight: assuming its in good order - its worth taking a chance on?
[16:17:06] <Loetmichel> i am not kidding
[16:17:21] <trentster> any suggestions for spindle mounts for the thing? single piece vs 2 pieces top and bottom rings?
[16:17:22] <CaptHindsight> trentster: up to you and the possible hassle of returns
[16:17:56] <trentster> hmmm
[16:18:31] <Loetmichel> trentster: link to the spindle?
[16:18:51] <Rab> trentster, many people have good experiences with those. Some don't. The quality is a gamble, and returns to china are impractical.
[16:19:36] <PetefromTn_> Okay parts are cookin' ;)
[16:19:46] <Rab> trentster, I imagine local seller softens the returns issue somewhat.
[16:19:53] <Loetmichel> trentster: found the link. i have 2 of the 800W variant in use
[16:20:03] <Loetmichel> working quite well
[16:20:04] <ssi> I figure on stuff like that if you can't afford to take a chance on a cheap chinese spindle, you definitely can't afford to buy a quality one :D
[16:20:43] <PetefromTn_> depends on whether or not the QUALITY one is used/old stock for a good price
[16:23:01] <Loetmichel> The one at the company recently started to "sing" a little in certain RPM. otherwise they are fine. nearly zero runout (meaning lower than 0,01mm, thats about as precise as i can measure). BUt i heard some need a regrind of the collet cone because they have lots of runout. THe bearings seem to cope well with light work (a bit of bearing noise after 1 year of ~5h a workday use is considered
[16:23:01] <Loetmichel> normal i think), they dont leak cooling fluid and are very quiet.
[16:23:30] <trentster> Loetmichel: the one I am looking at is 2.2kw not sure its the same thing
[16:23:44] <trentster> http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/2-2KW-WATER-COOLED-SPINDLE-MOTOR-2-2KW-VFD-FREQUENCY-VARIABLE-COOLE-MOTOR-GREAT-/331620565948
[16:24:03] <Rab> trentster, same thing, just scaled up.
[16:24:05] <Loetmichel> it is the same spindle, only a bit smaller
[16:24:05] <ssi> trentster: it's the same thing... there's a whole range of those spindles
[16:24:10] <Loetmichel> but same construction
[16:24:11] <ssi> 800, 1200, 1500, 2200, 3300W
[16:24:24] <Loetmichel> all the 800W to 2.2kw are identical in makeup
[16:24:26] <Rab> Loetmichel, are you using the chinese VFD?
[16:24:28] <PetefromTn_> and just $304 ;)
[16:24:31] <Loetmichel> just differend length /diameter
[16:24:38] <Loetmichel> Rab: yes

[16:25:40] <trentster> and is water cooled generally the way to go if you have the option?
[16:25:53] <Loetmichel> the air cooled howl
[16:26:14] <Loetmichel> and have very small cooling fins inside, they tend to get gunked up with swarf/dust fast
[16:26:16] <trentster> yeah - I have a 400w air cooled spindle its not too bad compared to a dremel or router
[16:26:48] <trentster> ok so I need to factor in pump plus mount
[16:29:15] <Loetmichel> trentster:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNLjMg0Nitk <- aside of a bit of bearing/VFD_PWM sing you hear NOTHING of the spindle...
[16:29:42] <Loetmichel> the pump is not that much of a problem
[16:29:58] <trentster> Loetmichel: thanks
[16:29:59] <Loetmichel> a simple inside fountain pump is sufficient
[16:30:28] <Loetmichel> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9Ov69t0uwo
[16:30:52] <Loetmichel> and thats the same for the 2.2kw, just the bucket has t be a bit bigger or made from metal to dissipate more heat ;)
[16:30:54] <trentster> man! cutting plastics are messy!
[16:31:02] <Loetmichel> it is ;)
[16:31:13] <Loetmichel> that the title of the vid: "its snowing"
[16:31:30] <trentster> your lcd panel is taking a pounding in that position
[16:32:12] <Loetmichel> so what.
[16:32:25] <Loetmichel> its a $10 15" tft from the trash heap ;)
[16:33:31] <trentster> yeah - mine too ;-)
[16:33:53] <Loetmichel> btw: thats me in an ex job.. had to trim off some resin cast with a 40mm diameter mill bit... and the duster nozzle doesent fit around that...
http://www.cyrom.org/palbum/main.php?g2_itemId=5077
[16:34:44] <trentster> haha
[16:35:07] <trentster> This one should be titled santa clause if the other one is its snowing
[16:35:10] <trentster> :P
[16:36:07] <trentster> in your vacuum table video - is that also a chinese 800w cheapie?
[16:36:11] * Loetmichel was not amused
[16:36:17] <trentster> the spindle I mean?
[16:36:19] <Loetmichel> which one`?
[16:36:57] <trentster> it was not meant to be an insult it was meant to say you are covered in snow - so tried to stick to the x-mas snow theme
[16:37:10] <Loetmichel> i meant i was not amused on that pic
[16:37:17] <trentster> aaah
[16:37:22] <Loetmichel> i didnt get it as an insult
[16:37:53] <trentster> I work with a German - I often have to be careful of the way I phrase things ;-)
[16:37:59] <trentster> tend to get myself in trouble.
[16:38:02] <Loetmichel> actuall i get called "santa" quite often ,)
[16:38:07] <Loetmichel> +y
[16:39:10] <zeeshan-lab> Loetmichel: find me a balg for my cnc machine!
[16:39:15] <Loetmichel> http://www.cyrom.org/palbum/main.php?g2_itemId=14598 <- as of now i have not smoked a year the rest of the beard is also white ;)
[16:39:16] <ssi> BALG?!
[16:39:26] <zeeshan-lab> z germans call bellows balg
[16:39:27] <zeeshan-lab> :P
[16:39:32] <ssi> lol
[16:39:39] <Loetmichel> ssi: he means a zigzag folding thing that protects the ways
[16:39:43] <ssi> yea got it :D
[16:39:56] <zeeshan-lab> ive been using german keywords
[16:40:01] <zeeshan-lab> but im not getting much hits
[16:40:09] <ssi> for the mikron?
[16:40:13] <zeeshan-lab> only one place that wants 300 euros for a bellow cove
[16:40:14] <zeeshan-lab> lol
[16:40:22] <zeeshan-lab> for that much money ill just use a piuece of plastic
[16:40:22] <zeeshan-lab> !
[16:40:23] <zeeshan-lab> yes
[16:40:30] <Loetmichel> http://www.cyrom.org/pce/abdeck.avi <- like this?
[16:41:09] <Loetmichel> zeeshan-lab: actually we call them "faltenbalg" for obvious reasons ;)
[16:41:19] <zeeshan-lab> yes somethinglike that
[16:41:26] <zeeshan-lab> but from the material that cnc ones are made from
[16:41:31] <zeeshan-lab> can take hot steel chips
[16:41:33] <ssi> FALTENBALG
[16:41:52] <zeeshan-lab> nice Loetmichel
[16:41:54] <zeeshan-lab> more hits
[16:41:55] <ssi> BLEISTIFTSPITZER
[16:42:21] <ssi> is the german word for a very specific kind of lathe :D
[16:42:39] <Loetmichel> "balg" is an OLD german word for skin
[16:42:54] <Loetmichel> make your own sense of that "faltenbalg" then ;)
[16:42:56] <ssi> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EKL6elkbFy0
[16:43:06] <zeeshan-lab> ripped skin?
[16:43:06] <zeeshan-lab> :P
[16:43:50] <zeeshan-lab> Metallbearbeitung ?
[16:44:11] <ssi> arbeit is work
[16:44:14] <Loetmichel> ssi: thats a BIT overdone (the vid) dont you think?
[16:44:15] <ssi> so I'm guessing 'metalworking'?
[16:44:19] <zeeshan-lab> oh
[16:44:20] <ssi> Loetmichel: a bit ;D
[16:44:28] <Loetmichel> zeeshan-lab: correct
[16:44:47] <Loetmichel> "bearbeitung" means to modify something
[16:44:54] <Loetmichel> "work ON it" you know?
[16:44:56] <ssi> yea
[16:45:03] <zeeshan-lab> how do you say
[16:45:05] <zeeshan-lab> "way coveR"
[16:45:21] <Loetmichel> depends
[16:45:25] <zeeshan-lab> a common way
[16:45:29] <Loetmichel> a cover is a "abdeckung"
[16:45:38] <PetefromTn_> how do you say gesundheit?
[16:45:55] <PetefromTn_> farvergnugen?
[16:46:00] <Loetmichel> but i dont know how to translate "way" for every possible way
[16:46:08] <Loetmichel> PetefromTn_: +h

[16:46:35] <zeeshan-lab> sorry for big link
[16:46:36] <ssi> fahr means drive
[16:46:37] <zeeshan-lab> HOLY COW
[16:46:40] <ssi> fahren
[16:46:44] <zeeshan-lab> THERE IS A 4th AXIS in the right orientation!!
[16:47:12] <PetefromTn_> what does +h mean heh
[16:47:25] <Loetmichel> fahrvergnügen would be "fun to drive"
[16:47:27] <ssi> you spelled it 'far', but there's an h in there
[16:47:29] <ssi> 'fahr'
[16:47:30] <PetefromTn_> looks backwards to me LOL
[16:47:32] <ssi> +h
[16:47:36] <ssi> add h
[16:47:37] <ssi> come on man
[16:47:39] <ssi> context clues
[16:47:42] <Loetmichel> and "gesundheit" would be "bless you" if i am not mistaken
[16:47:47] <zeeshan-lab> DU HAST
[16:47:50] <zeeshan-lab> DU HAST MICH
[16:47:53] <PetefromTn_> Oh who gives a rats ass how I spelled it I was joking..
[16:48:05] <zeeshan-lab> PetefromTn_: gemans dont get jokes
[16:48:08] <zeeshan-lab> :-)
[16:48:11] <ssi> :D
[16:48:14] <PetefromTn_> neither do canadians apparently
[16:48:33] <Loetmichel> zeeshan-lab: not quite correct
[16:48:45] <ssi> you can always tell a german
[16:48:48] <ssi> you just can't tell him much :D
[16:48:51] <Loetmichel> we DO have some problems with british humor tho ;)
[16:49:04] <PetefromTn_> doesn't everyone?
[16:49:22] <Loetmichel> PetefromTn_: you mean: aside from the brits? ;)
[16:49:54] <zeeshan-lab> german humor is eradicating a generations
[16:49:56] <zeeshan-lab> :P

[16:50:22] <PetefromTn_> I was watching the brittish version of the Office TV show on netflix yesterday.... my wife sat there and watched it for about a half hour... then she stated " you do know I have not laughed one single time right....not even a snicker" I laughed my ass off at that...
[16:50:33] <zeeshan-lab> lol
[16:51:11] <zeeshan-lab> i found a cheape way cover

[16:51:23] <zeeshan-lab> thank you Loetmichel
[16:51:28] <zeeshan-lab> the faltenbalg worked
[16:51:40] <zeeshan-lab> i just cant surf that damn site
[16:52:18] <Loetmichel> hrhr
[16:52:29] <Loetmichel> tip:make it yourself its easy
[16:52:50] <Loetmichel> just get some rubber clad cloth, a dull knife and a pattern
[16:53:28] <Loetmichel> (a DULL knofe to imprint the folds rather then cut the material)
[16:53:31] <Loetmichel> knife
[16:53:37] <zeeshan-lab> on internets
[16:53:43] <zeeshan-lab> it says neoprene is the mateiral
[16:53:56] <trentster> PetefromTn_: the US version of the office is 10X better imho
[16:54:03] <Jymmm> neoprene resists many chemicals
[16:54:06] <zeeshan-lab> or nylon
[16:54:28] <zeeshan-lab> okay here we go
[16:54:30] <zeeshan-lab> nylon cloth
[16:54:33] <zeeshan-lab> looks like the right material
[16:54:33] <zeeshan-lab> hmm
[16:54:41] <Loetmichel> nylon melts
[16:55:01] <Loetmichel> rummer clad cloth only smoes a bit on a red hot swarf
[16:55:06] <Loetmichel> rubber
[16:55:09] <Jymmm> so does neoprene =)
[16:55:10] <zeeshan-lab> at 220C
[16:55:13] <zeeshan-lab> it does
[16:55:14] Meduza89 is now known as Meduza
[16:55:20] <Loetmichel> the kind that is used for oooold air matresses
[16:55:25] <Jymmm> so does steel =)
[16:55:51] <PetefromTn_> trentster yeah I must agree... that brit humor is hard to stomach sometimes...
[16:55:59] <Loetmichel> steel doesent bend well (repeatedly)
[16:56:07] <PetefromTn_> but then the US version of Top gear.....
[16:56:19] <Loetmichel> PetefromTn_: urgs
[16:56:23] <Loetmichel> dont remind me if that
[16:56:31] <zeeshan-lab> "nylon canvas fabric"
[16:56:49] <Loetmichel> hamster, cpt slow and jeremy are not replaceable

[16:59:17] <PetefromTn_> Oh I LOVE Top Gear and Monty Python but that office show kinda sucked...
[16:59:37] <Loetmichel> if its covered in polyurethan it just glims, even if you have red hot swarf on it
[16:59:48] <Loetmichel> it would not even burn thru that easy
[17:00:27] <zeeshan-lab> okay good to know!
[17:00:28] <trentster> PetefromTn_: The stuff I really like always seems to be HBO produced
[17:00:30] <zeeshan-lab> ill attempt that
[17:01:03] <Loetmichel> thats why i said: use an old rubber clad denim air matress?
[17:01:07] <PetefromTn_> haven't had HBO for over a decade now damn..
[17:01:19] <ssi> waxed canvas maybe?
[17:01:27] <Loetmichel> (what are these called in englsih, the ones that are made for swimming on the pool?
[17:01:29] <trentster> but I have an odd taste tho - I love "curb your enthusiasm" and "season 2 of true detective" both of which people seem to not like!

[17:09:55] <PetefromTn_> I don't....shit gets hot pretty quick
[17:10:23] <ssi> I've been handling hot shit so long I hardly notice anymore :P
[17:10:57] <PetefromTn_> what do you think I have been doing LOL... this tubing gets real hot and if I am gonna be doing a lot of it that will slow things down considerably
[17:11:19] <PetefromTn_> and I wear some rather thick welding gauntlets
[17:11:44] <ssi> I have short fingers and gloves always run long for me, and I have a hard time working in them
[17:11:49] <PetefromTn_> It's mostly my pinky finger that gets it because I often brace against the work with it
[17:11:52] <ssi> I ought to sit down and sew the fingers shorter
[17:12:28] <PetefromTn_> the fingers on my Tig glove torch hand are all burnt up LOL
[17:12:46] <PetefromTn_> I am hoping I can put this stuff on there and be able to brace longer and be more comfortable
[17:13:09] <PetefromTn_> I don't use a water cooled torch so maybe you do and it helps I dunno...
[17:13:30] <ssi> I do
[17:13:32] <Loetmichel> ssi: i used to grab clean welds with my thumb...
[17:13:37] <ssi> I think water cooled torches are mandatory
[17:14:00] <Loetmichel> unti i got hooked on a bit of MAG wire sticking out of the freshly made weld...
[17:14:11] <Loetmichel> ... was a nasty burn
[17:14:15] <ssi> lol I bet
[17:14:18] <PetefromTn_> naah
[17:14:24] <ssi> I did a really dumb thing a million years ago
[17:14:30] <ssi> I was screwing with an HF ham radio
[17:14:33] <PetefromTn_> I have been welding stuff with this thing for years
[17:14:36] <ssi> and I wanted to key it into a dummy load
[17:14:39] <PetefromTn_> the problem is really not the torch
[17:14:53] <ssi> and my idiot brain decided a pair of 100 ohm 1/4W resistors twisted together would make an ok 50 ohm dummy load
[17:14:58] <PetefromTn_> the parts themselves just get damn hot after awhile especially aluminum
[17:15:10] <ssi> which I held between thumb and forefinger in the antenna jack, and keyed up 100W of power through it
[17:15:13] <Loetmichel> ssi:it would
[17:15:18] <Loetmichel> for 0,5W ;)
[17:15:27] <ssi> I had a 1/8" deep resistor-shaped crater in my thumb and forefinger for a loooong time :D
[17:15:44] <Loetmichel> i can imagine
[17:17:06] <Loetmichel> dumbest thing i did once was to throw a brick into the camp fire. to grab it our with bare hands 15 min later as a "foot warmer" in the sleepong bag while camping... didnt knw that there was a brick in the fire all day long... grabbed the wrong one...
[17:17:22] <Loetmichel> the bandage was on that hand for 2 weeks ;)
[17:17:36] <ssi> ow haha
[17:18:00] <ssi> but yea I've experienced that crazy ass feeling you get when you finish welding some 3/16" aluminum and go to try to pick it up
[17:18:05] <ssi> and it feels slippery like a bar of soap
[17:18:12] <ssi> because your skin is sloughing off
[17:18:19] <ssi> and then it starts to tighten
[17:18:28] <ssi> and there's no pain yet, but then you realize you've done something horribly horribly wrong
[17:18:29] <Loetmichel> "why is it smelling like fried bacon all of a sudden?" ... " OH SHI*!!!!111"
[17:18:57] <Loetmichel> yeah, exactly that feeling
[17:19:00] -!- Chopper791 has quit [Quit: Leaving.]
[17:20:20] <Loetmichel> and you can actually hear your brain gears grinding "what did go wrong here?!?..."
[17:20:26] <ssi> hahah yeah
[17:20:30] <Loetmichel> in slomo
[17:20:39] <PetefromTn_> Oh I know that feeling too....unfortunately
[17:22:45] <Loetmichel> we have a german saying: " there you can hear the dime drop cent by cent"
[17:23:10] <ssi> auf deutsche, bitte?
[17:23:14] <Loetmichel> (actually "groschen" which was 10 pfennig)
[17:23:16] <PetefromTn_> I think I have burned myself more times from a piece that I had grinded some on that welding... but I DID just poke my arm with a hot tig filler wire the other day...
[17:23:28] <Loetmichel> "da kannst du den groschen pfennigweise fallen hören"
[17:23:30] <ssi> :D
[17:23:50] <ssi> parses reasonably well :D
[17:25:28] <Loetmichel> meaning that someone parses a situation _quite_ slow
[17:25:44] -!- sumpfralle has quit [Ping timeout: 272 seconds]
[17:26:33] <Loetmichel> is that a thing in english also ? "drop the dime" for someone parsing somthing?
[17:27:26] <ssi> "you could hear a pin drop" is an english phrase with similar context
[17:27:31] -!- Komzzpa has quit [Ping timeout: 244 seconds]
[17:27:34] <ssi> but not exactly the same
[17:27:54] <ssi> "drop a dime" in english is euphemistic for calling in an anonymous tip to the police on somebody
[17:28:03] <Deejay> oh, ssi versteht deutsch?
[17:28:12] <Loetmichel> "hear a pin drop" works in german also. but for "it is very quiet here"
[17:28:15] <ssi> very little sadly :(
[17:28:25] <Deejay> ah k :)
[17:28:26] <ssi> I studied in high school and I retain only bits and pieces
[17:28:36] <ssi> but I like the language a lot
[17:28:53] <Deejay> hopefully not only the bad words ;)
[17:29:01] <Loetmichel> "da kannst du eine Stecknadel fallen hören" -> VERY quiet location
[17:29:20] <ssi> yeah that's closer to the english usage
[17:29:42] <ssi> Deejay: no, mostly not the bad words :)
[17:29:53] <ssi> mostly silly words like Bleistiftspitzer
[17:29:59] <Deejay> hrhr
[17:30:04] <Deejay> nice
[17:30:05] <Loetmichel> i think the "den groschen fallen hören" comes from the old vending machines with the fully mechanic change accepting meachanism
[17:31:03] <Loetmichel> where you can hear the the coin fall thru the mechanics slowly to be accepted or rejected

[17:48:10] <James628> Hi, After downgrading from 2.7 to 2.6.9 I have this erros with a Mesa 7i43 config: " Watchdog has bit! (set the .has-bit pin to False to resume)" lcnc starts, but no movement on axes.
[17:50:16] <cradek> I think in 2.6 you have to explicitly pet the watchdog, but in 2.7 it happens automatically in the write function
[17:50:56] <cradek> so you probably just need to add watchdog petting to your servo thread
[17:53:03] <James628> thanks cradek, I'll check it out!!
[17:55:49] <cradek> I found this difference in man hostmot2

[18:31:17] -!- b_b has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[18:35:07] <Jymmm> How much of a groove is "acceptable" on rear rotor?
[18:38:36] <zeeshan|2> Jymmm: almost all the manuals ive looked at
[18:38:39] <zeeshan|2> specify the overall thickness
[18:38:41] <zeeshan|2> not groove depth
[18:39:03] <zeeshan|2> and itll change by car cause like you know, rotors come in different sizes :P
[18:39:21] <zeeshan|2> but to give you a feel for the numbers
[18:39:36] <zeeshan|2> on a 2 door coupe, youre only allowed 20 thou of wear
[18:39:38] <zeeshan|2> on the rotor
[18:39:50] <zeeshan|2> but a thicker rotor on the same car is 40 thou
[18:39:59] <zeeshan|2> (the upgrade brakes option)
[18:40:42] <Jymmm> Well, I'm basically asking IF I need to have them turned or not
[18:41:21] <zeeshan|2> usually if you can see the groove
[18:41:24] <zeeshan|2> its game over already
[18:41:28] <Rab> Jymmm, my bro-in-law drove a Volvo 240 until the rear piston literally wore through the rotor and left just a loose hoop of metal. That seems unsafe to me, so I would stop short somewhere.
[18:41:48] <Rab> Basically when the pad is gone.
[18:41:51] <ssi> a groove in the rotor isn't the same as wearing the pads through :P
[18:42:23] <zeeshan|2> i always wanted one of those on the car brake lathes
[18:42:24] <zeeshan|2> they are pretty cool
[18:42:29] <Jymmm> plenty of pad, just a grove in the rotor
[18:42:36] <ssi> groove won't hurt anything
[18:42:37] <zeeshan|2> oh
[18:42:39] <zeeshan|2> a single grOOVE?
[18:42:40] <zeeshan|2> lol
[18:42:46] <Jymmm> yeah
[18:42:55] <Rab> Jymmm, what type of vehicle and how does the pad look?
[18:42:55] <zeeshan|2> http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y12/slurppie/DSCF0035.jpg
[18:42:56] <zeeshan|2> like that?
[18:43:22] <Jymmm> zeeshan|2: OH hell no, no where near that thick
[18:43:30] <zeeshan|2> you worry too much
[18:43:30] <zeeshan|2> lol
[18:43:40] <Rab> Plenty of good meat left in that pic.
[18:43:41] <Jymmm> 2001 Ford Expedition 2WD Rear
[18:43:55] <zeeshan|2> stop buying cheap rotors!!
[18:44:00] <ssi> lol
[18:44:14] <ssi> ford truck brake rotors are cheaper than the scrap value of the iron
[18:44:17] <Jymmm> zeeshan|2: They are original from factory biotch
[18:44:22] <zeeshan|2> stop buying cheap rotors!!
[18:44:22] <zeeshan|2> stop buying cheap rotors!!
[18:44:36] <zeeshan|2> :-)
[18:44:47] <Jymmm> ssi: Not at $69.98
[18:44:48] <zeeshan|2> i run brembo blanks
[18:44:50] <zeeshan|2> they are awesome
[18:44:58] <Rab> Jymmm, I would drive until pad reaches the wear limit. Then replace rear pads and rotors, both sides.
[18:44:59] <Jymmm> zeeshan|2: Great, send me some
[18:45:06] <zeeshan|2> buy some!
[18:45:19] <zeeshan|2> speaking of car stuff
[18:45:19] <Jymmm> zeeshan|2: Insert YOUR cc here [ ]
[18:45:25] <zeeshan|2> i just changed my neighbours strut assmebly
[18:45:27] <zeeshan|2> he came to me last night
[18:45:28] <ssi> I've paid $12 for ford truck rotors
[18:45:34] <zeeshan|2> saying theres major clunking coming on his wifes car
[18:45:44] <zeeshan|2> im like its likely a broken spring or ball joint
[18:45:49] <zeeshan|2> hes like it cant be a spring cause he looked
[18:45:52] <Jymmm> Rab: The claiper went bad, started smoking everything
[18:45:52] <zeeshan|2> so i look myself
[18:45:56] <zeeshan|2> the spring is shattered in 3 pieces
[18:45:57] <zeeshan|2> haha
[18:46:02] <ssi> CLAIPER
[18:46:07] <Jymmm> ssi: from where?
[18:46:11] <ssi> autozone
[18:46:19] <ssi> depends on the truck tho :P
[18:46:21] <Jymmm> ssi: thats where i just bought these from
[18:46:29] <zeeshan|2> i thought they were original ford
[18:46:30] <zeeshan|2> lol
[18:46:31] <zeeshan|2> liar
[18:46:39] <ssi> lol
[18:46:46] <zeeshan|2> if you run that cheap shit
[18:46:48] <zeeshan|2> it warps so easily
[18:46:52] <Jymmm> zeeshan|2: Dude, I bought EVERYTHING to replace, and will return what I don't use.
[18:47:12] <Jymmm> and if I don't HAVE to replace the rotor, I won't
[18:47:36] <zeeshan|2> why wouldnt you change pads
[18:47:37] <zeeshan|2> er
[18:47:40] <zeeshan|2> rotors when youre doing pads?
[18:47:42] <Rab> Jymmm, in all seriousness, if the caliper seized, it's possible that the rotor overheated and warped. Better to refresh everything IMO.
[18:47:45] <zeeshan|2> youre just gonna prematurely wear the pads
[18:47:54] <zeeshan|2> he'd see warping
[18:47:55] <zeeshan|2> its obvious
[18:47:56] <Rab> Rear brakes last forever anyway.
[18:48:10] <zeeshan|2> http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v225/bennyfizzle/rotorpwnage.jpg
[18:48:15] <zeeshan|2> its really obvious when you overheat a rotor
[18:48:22] <zeeshan|2> and sometimes you get microcracks
[18:48:39] <Jymmm> zeeshan|2: damn dude, wth did you do to that car?!
[18:48:48] <zeeshan|2> guaranteed seized caliper
[18:49:02] <zeeshan|2> or someone racing to ohard
[18:49:05] <zeeshan|2> *too hard
[18:49:22] <Jymmm> Rab: It smoked/burned a lot, but there is still some rubber left so I don't think it got hot enough to warp the disc
[18:49:28] <ssi> "racing to o-hard" also applies
[18:49:35] <Rab> zeeshan|2, I've seen several cases of warped rotors on non-performance passenger cars which weren't obvious. Those were usually due to overtightened lugs etc rather than stuck piston though.
[18:49:35] <ssi> as in racing the temper right out of the steel :D
[18:49:54] <zeeshan|2> rab
[18:49:59] <zeeshan|2> if your rotor is even out by 2 thou
[18:50:05] <zeeshan|2> you'll feel massive shuddering when you brake
[18:50:07] <zeeshan|2> i think its obvious
[18:50:14] <zeeshan|2> but then again my neighbour was driving with a broken spring
[18:50:14] <Jymmm> Rab: IT had been leaking for a long time, but only froze up for 7 miles
[18:50:15] <zeeshan|2> thinking it was ok
[18:50:23] <Rab> zeeshan|2, sure, I assumed you meant visibly obvious.
[18:50:33] <zeeshan|2> you assume a lot!
[18:50:34] <zeeshan|2> :-)
[18:50:37] * zeeshan|2 slaps
[18:50:56] <Rab> They looked fine, but there was braking shudder.
[18:51:29] <zeeshan|2> you can measure runout you know
[18:51:29] <zeeshan|2> :)
[18:51:55] <zeeshan|2> ssi: i always wanted those sexy carbon discs
[18:51:59] <zeeshan|2> but man theyre like 3000$
[18:52:01] <zeeshan|2> for a set
[18:52:02] <Jymmm> So, replace? resurface? leave as-is? I thnk the groove is apx 0.015"
[18:52:03] <ssi> make some
[18:52:07] <zeeshan|2> lol
[18:52:09] <SpeedEvil> zeeshan|2: make your own
[18:52:17] <SpeedEvil> zeeshan|2: carbon fibre + pitch + oven
[18:52:19] <zeeshan|2> yea i dont think im gonna play wit hfire
[18:52:27] <zeeshan|2> i rather have a dot approved rotor
[18:52:29] <Rab> Jymmm, are you set up to measure runout?
[18:52:32] <ssi> lol
[18:52:36] <zeeshan|2> i had this old 240sx
[18:52:39] <zeeshan|2> the brake line burst
[18:52:42] <Jymmm> Rab: nope
[18:52:45] <zeeshan|2> it really sucks when you lose brakes at 60 mph
[18:52:51] <zeeshan|2> i dunno how i didnt die that day
[18:53:04] <ssi> I've lost brakes at 100mph and it wasn't too big a deal
[18:53:10] <Rab> Jymmm, you can take the rotor to local auto machine shop. Some Vato Zone type stores will do turning too. They can tell you if the rotor's salvageable.
[18:53:12] <ssi> just increased my rollout :D
[18:53:23] <zeeshan|2> losing brakes in an airplane doesnt count
[18:53:25] <zeeshan|2> jk
[18:53:25] <zeeshan|2> :D
[18:53:27] <ssi> lololol
[18:53:33] <cradek> I lost brakes at 40mph (pointed at a red light) and that was bad enough
[18:53:41] <zeeshan|2> cradek: its scary crap man
[18:53:45] <Rab> zeeshan|2, 240sx has one brake line?
[18:53:46] <ssi> speaking of which, I went through a bunch of crap on the RV last week
[18:53:47] <zeeshan|2> i actually went through a red
[18:53:51] <Jymmm> Rab: Hell the pad look great, other that all the charring =)
[18:53:56] <zeeshan|2> Rab: yes to the rear
[18:53:57] <cradek> I knew my master cylinder was getting bad, but until then I had been able to pump and get some stopping...
[18:53:58] <zeeshan|2> and then it splits
[18:54:07] <ssi> rebuilt the master cylinders which were leaking in the floor, replaced teh shitty tygon lines with good aeroquip shit, new tires, tubes, and brake pads
[18:54:10] <zeeshan|2> the master did it's job
[18:54:11] <ssi> and I have a caliper leaking now
[18:54:14] <zeeshan|2> i had one pump of brake power
[18:54:16] <ssi> need to pull it, clean it up and re-ring it
[18:54:20] <zeeshan|2> which slowed me down to about 20
[18:54:24] <cradek> so I honked all the way through, haha
[18:54:30] <zeeshan|2> and then i steered into a curb
[18:54:33] <zeeshan|2> so i didnt run over a person in front of me
[18:54:34] <cradek> then drove very slowly to a shop
[18:54:42] <zeeshan|2> went over a curve thrugh the initersection
[18:54:47] <zeeshan|2> and rolled my way to a stop :D
[18:54:53] <zeeshan|2> (btw ebrake didnt work)
[18:54:59] <zeeshan|2> cradek nice
[18:55:00] <zeeshan|2> haha
[18:55:01] <Rab> I had a school bus with hydraulic brakes which lost braking a few times...really bad situation. One of my friends banged up a car with it.
[18:55:09] <cradek> I'm much smarter (and richer) now
[18:55:16] <ssi> zeeshan|2: stop driving crappy cars!
[18:55:16] <ssi> zeeshan|2: stop driving crappy cars!
[18:55:17] <ssi> zeeshan|2: stop driving crappy cars!
[18:55:17] <zeeshan|2> yea f messing with brakes
[18:55:18] <ssi> lololol
[18:55:21] <zeeshan|2> dude i was 17
[18:55:21] <zeeshan|2> haha
[18:55:27] <zeeshan|2> it was all i could afford :)
[18:55:40] <zeeshan|2> the eclipse was being a garage queen
[18:55:47] <cradek> mine was a 49 ford I traded an old IBM XT for (really)

[19:10:28] <zeeshan|2> still doesnt have syncro for R
[19:10:32] <zeeshan|2> 2010!!
[19:10:36] <cradek> does anything??
[19:10:42] <zeeshan|2> the rx7 does!
[19:10:48] <zeeshan|2> the t56 from the vette is in there
[19:10:55] <zeeshan|2> it has syncros on even reverse
[19:11:01] <zeeshan|2> syncro
[19:11:02] <cradek> huh maybe I wouldn't notice one - I don't expect it to be there
[19:11:11] <cradek> now I'll have to try on my vw

[19:22:35] <zeeshan|2> actually now that i think about it, i have it backwards
[19:22:41] <zeeshan|2> a sourcing output is one that can provide current
[19:22:46] <zeeshan|2> while a sinking can't
[19:22:52] <zeeshan|2> you need to connect an external supply to a sinking output

[19:23:16] <zeeshan|2> yep
[19:23:18] <zeeshan|2> thank you
[19:23:22] <zeeshan|2> the power supply is internal for the sourcing
[19:23:31] <zeeshan|2> so i just need to think of it like this
[19:23:39] <zeeshan|2> sourcing outputs -> they are the source!
[19:23:44] <zeeshan|2> so they provide current
[19:24:16] <zeeshan|2> soemtimes i see people interchange sourcing with pull up / pull down
[19:24:48] <zeeshan|2> sourcing is analogous to pull down id think

[19:56:07] <zeeshan|2> im almost curious
[19:56:12] <zeeshan|2> if this is where the star delta came from
[19:56:20] <zeeshan|2> cause it literally looks like it
[19:56:45] <zeeshan|2> only thing that makes sense to me is
[19:56:52] <zeeshan|2> a1 a2 is one coil and so on
[19:57:02] <zeeshan|2> so f or you to go to Y
[19:57:12] <andypugh> Exactly that.
[19:57:39] <zeeshan|2> youll basically connect A1 to l1. b1 to l2 , c1 to l3
[19:57:41] <cradek> I know nothing about 3phase, but can't you move the wires instead of the jumpers? nothing looks captive to me
[19:57:47] <andypugh> So, in delta, I need to connect to A1+B1, A2+C1 and B2+C2 (or similar)
[19:57:55] <zeeshan|2> are you going delta
[19:57:56] <zeeshan|2> or Y
[19:57:57] <zeeshan|2> sorry
[19:58:00] <cradek> the marking on the black plastic would be wrong then

[19:58:47] <zeeshan|2> andypugh: i dont see anything wrong with your logic
[19:58:52] <andypugh> I think I need three little links, A2-C1, C2-B1, B2-A1
[19:58:55] <zeeshan|2> and where those coils are connected
[19:59:00] <zeeshan|2> you'd hook up l1 l2 l3
[19:59:44] <andypugh> I am 100% positive that three little links will do the job, but normally all that you need is inside the terminal box.
[19:59:44] <zeeshan|2> i agree with cradek
[19:59:46] <zeeshan|2> i'd just mnove the wires
[19:59:49] <zeeshan|2> rather than make new links
[20:00:02] <zeeshan|2> if you have enough slack
[20:00:43] <DaViruz> wow, never seen a motor connection box like that :)
[20:00:59] <andypugh> I’d rather not move the wires, I have a feelig that it’s not the done thing :-)
[20:01:09] <zeeshan|2> its not
[20:01:11] <cradek> heh

[20:01:17] <zeeshan|2> but hey it works :P
[20:01:28] <DaViruz> that should be star? for delta you'd need three links, so moving wires won't do much
[20:01:57] <zeeshan|2> why
[20:02:07] <DaViruz> because there are only two links there
[20:02:18] <zeeshan|2> you could have a1 b2 on one stud, b1 c2 on another stud and c1 and a2 on another stud

[20:03:04] <zeeshan|2> so cool
[20:03:25] <Tom_itx> i mean make some wire jumpers of your own
[20:03:40] <zeeshan|2> im so paranoid about this stuff
[20:03:43] <zeeshan|2> about making my own links
[20:03:48] <zeeshan|2> cause like all this shit is approved
[20:04:01] <zeeshan|2> thinks dinky parts have gone through some serious testing
[20:04:02] <andypugh> I have some beryllium copper I could use :-)
[20:04:05] <Tom_itx> andypugh, your carousel demo is very cool btw
[20:04:08] <zeeshan|2> yea but is it plated?!
[20:04:31] <andypugh> zeeshan|2: No
[20:04:34] <zeeshan|2> whoever wired your motor last
[20:04:36] <zeeshan|2> needs to be slapped
[20:04:42] <zeeshan|2> you always through the extra links in there!!
[20:05:01] <andypugh> I don’t think that three links of that length would work
[20:05:10] <DaViruz> it's nice of them to label the wires as well
[20:05:14] <zeeshan|2> like in a bag
[20:05:17] <zeeshan|2> usually its just stuffed in there
[20:05:19] <Tom_itx> not only do you need to get the right 3 coils but you need the right ends too or it will be out of phase won't it?
[20:05:29] <zeeshan|2> andypugh: be a man
[20:05:31] <zeeshan|2> do the stud technique
[20:05:35] <zeeshan|2> =]
[20:05:48] <Tom_itx> that's how i figured out the phases of my 3 transformers i tied together
[20:05:57] <zeeshan|2> i dont think the stud technique is going to work though in my opinion
[20:05:58] <andypugh> Tom_itx: If you get an end wrong, the motor runs backwards. No big deal, you just swap two input wires.
[20:06:01] <zeeshan|2> cause those wires usually have no slack in them
[20:06:04] <Tom_itx> oh
[20:06:16] <Tom_itx> well hell then... wire it up
[20:06:21] <deep_pink> there is too slow feed rate?
[20:06:38] <zeeshan|2> deep_pink: yes, the one that causes ploughing
[20:06:40] <zeeshan|2> rather than cutting
[20:06:59] <zeeshan|2> andypugh: help me wire my VFD plz :-(
[20:07:02] <zeeshan|2> youve done so much vfd work
[20:07:06] <furrywolf> or chatter
[20:07:10] <Tom_itx> i wouldn't move the exhisting wires though since they've figured out the phases for you already
[20:07:13] <XXCoder> if i remember too slow also means tool gets dull too fast due to all that rubbing
[20:07:22] <zeeshan|2> Tom_itx: everything is labelled :P
[20:07:24] <Tom_itx> with the labels moulded in the insulation
[20:10:00] <andypugh> zeeshan|2: I have only wired 3 vfds. Well, maybe 4 by the end of tonight.
[20:10:10] <zeeshan|2> =[
[20:10:16] <zeeshan|2> ive done modbus
[20:10:22] <zeeshan|2> and a pot
[20:10:26] <zeeshan|2> but i havent done 7i77 to vfd
[20:10:49] <deep_pink> I'm take 0.1 mm cut 3mm deep at 650 rpm with 60mm/Min
[20:11:01] <deep_pink> 4 flute end mill HSS
[20:11:02] <zeeshan|2> do i connect aoutX@7i77 to vrf2@vfd , and gnd@7i77 to common@vfd
[20:11:02] <zeeshan|2> ?
[20:11:07] <deep_pink> mild steel
[20:11:11] <zeeshan|2> vrf2 expects a -10 to 10v signal
[20:11:35] <zeeshan|2> and then the vfd should reverse and go fwd
[20:11:36] <zeeshan|2> itself
[20:11:47] <zeeshan|2> the only other output i need from 7i77 should be a start/stop ?
[20:14:18] <Wolf_> need the tool size to math the feed deep_pink
[20:14:35] <zeeshan|2> Wolf_: dont help :P
[20:14:38] <zeeshan|2> i told formulas
[20:14:44] <zeeshan|2> doesnt wanna learn :P
[20:15:07] <Wolf_> I don’t even know them… I’m milling dumbs
[20:15:09] -!- tannewt has quit [Quit: My Mac has gone to sleep. ZZZzzz…]

[20:15:28] <XXCoder> math is pretty strightforward for me
[20:15:32] <XXCoder> too bad my memory sucks
[20:15:37] <deep_pink> zeeshan|2: Wolf_ -
http://i.imgur.com/TWq3pXD.png
[20:16:07] <zeeshan|2> deep_pink: you might as well learn the proper terms??!
[20:16:31] <Wolf_> climb or conventional? :P
[20:16:33] <deep_pink> zeeshan|2: what do you mean?
[20:16:35] <andypugh> zeeshan|2: 7i77? Hmm, I think that is bipolar output, so you would need to check the VFD manual.
[20:16:52] <deep_pink> I set it to conventional
[20:17:11] <zeeshan|2> 7i77 outputs -10 to 10
[20:17:15] <zeeshan|2> vfd expects -10 to 10
[20:17:23] <zeeshan|2> i get thrown off at the common + ground part
[20:17:25] <deep_pink> but the numbers are ok?
[20:17:33] <Wolf_> almost done the z-axis ball screw setup
http://i.imgur.com/NZCBIdp.png?1
[20:17:38] <deep_pink> looks resnable?
[20:17:50] <andypugh> zeeshan|2: Yes, me too. Ask pcw_home ?
[20:18:19] <zeeshan|2> dear pcw_home can you help
[20:18:21] <deep_pink> Wolf_: I press middle click without thinking..
[20:18:39] <zeeshan|2> deep_pink: the arrow with 0.1mm is "radial depth of cut"
[20:18:46] <zeeshan|2> the 3mm is "axial depth of cut"
[20:18:55] <XXCoder> zeeshan|2: fgured the 4th axis hack out yet?
[20:19:02] <zeeshan|2> 60mm/min is your feed rate
[20:19:10] <zeeshan|2> if you use these terms you wont have to draw pics
[20:19:23] <zeeshan|2> XXCoder: one thing at a time
[20:19:28] <XXCoder> lol ok
[20:19:29] <zeeshan|2> id like to fix my rigid tapping today
[20:19:31] <zeeshan|2> then do bellows
[20:19:33] <zeeshan|2> then 4th axis
[20:20:15] <deep_pink> zeeshan|2: but atlieat I know the terms now..
[20:20:32] <deep_pink> at least*
[20:20:46] <zeeshan|2> your rpm is good
[20:21:12] <zeeshan|2> your feedrate is good
[20:21:12] <XXCoder> http://www.truetex.com/servomod.htm
[20:22:14] <zeeshan|2> axial doc is good
[20:22:21] <zeeshan|2> why such a small radial doc though?
[20:22:30] <zeeshan|2> is this a finishing pass?
[20:22:34] <furrywolf> Napa's website says they sell them, but won't say any of the local stores have them, just that I need to call them for availability... which I'm guessing means they'll be special-order.
[20:22:45] <furrywolf> And they're $30 each. for napa tools.
[20:23:03] <Wolf_> hate getting tools at napa
[20:23:13] <deep_pink> I have no idea, I just try some number.
[20:24:00] <zeeshan|2> andypugh: is my logic correct though
[20:24:10] <zeeshan|2> that you only need a start/stop signals on top of the analog signal
[20:24:41] <Wolf_> isn’t 0v stop
[20:24:48] <zeeshan|2> you cant trust it
[20:24:50] <deep_pink> zeeshan|2: there is a way to calculate the "radial depth of cut" and the "axial depth of cut"
[20:24:51] <zeeshan|2> cause theres always noise
[20:24:56] <furrywolf> just heard back from the auction selling the Mori-Seiki SL-1... apparantly it's in excellent shape except one position on the turret is crunched and the battery in the controller died so the controller won't work.
[20:24:56] -!- jerryitt has quit [Quit: Connection closed for inactivity]
[20:25:01] <furrywolf> just says "low battery". lol
[20:25:08] <SpeedEvil> hah
[20:25:20] <zeeshan|2> deep_pink: yes but it is hard
[20:25:30] <zeeshan|2> they depend on how rigid your machine is
[20:25:37] <zeeshan|2> and the tool length and diameter and flute specs
[20:25:46] <furrywolf> they say it only cut aluminum, has very low hours, and was fully functional until it sat and the battery ran down.
[20:25:52] <furrywolf> how much should I bid on it?
[20:26:04] <zeeshan|2> $500
[20:26:06] <zeeshan|2> :D
[20:26:14] <furrywolf> that's it?
[20:26:18] <zeeshan|2> no im kidding
[20:26:19] <deep_pink> zeeshan|2: g0704 - almost zero rigidity
[20:26:22] <fenn> zeeshan|2: i too would like to see formulas for calculating ideal depth of cut
[20:26:23] <zeeshan|2> realistically it'll easily go for 2k
[20:26:47] <zeeshan|2> fenn: one way is to assume your machine is rigid
[20:26:54] <zeeshan|2> which is pretty reasonable for a decent machine
[20:27:01] <furrywolf> unfortunately, it's a sealed bid auction... so if I put down $2k, and everyone else puts down $10, I still pay $2k...
[20:27:04] <fenn> so only the tool is flexing in this scenario
[20:27:06] <zeeshan|2> then you can use the bending of beams formulas to approximate
[20:27:14] <zeeshan|2> your tool is a cantilever beam
[20:27:32] <PetefromTn_> deep_pink for the smaller machines I find it easiest to just manuall jog around cutting the material you intend to use making test cuts at varying depths and speeds/feeds until you find what works for you. Most online calculators will have you going beyond the limits of the machine easily
[20:27:33] <furrywolf> apparantly my new mill is quite ridgid... I found one forum posting where the guy says that after using it, a bridgeport feels flimsy. lol
[20:27:35] <zeeshan|2> you know the yield strength of both carbide and hss for example and also know modulus of elasticity
[20:27:43] <fenn> zeeshan|2: if you have FEA model of the machine you can use that instead?
[20:27:46] <zeeshan|2> so you can determine when the tool will shatter
[20:27:55] <fenn> (in addition to tool flex)
[20:28:01] <zeeshan|2> its hard to do that
[20:28:13] <furrywolf> "The college forklift cannot lift this machine onto a trailer." is not a good sign. how much does it weigh? lol
[20:28:18] * furrywolf googles
[20:28:19] <zeeshan|2> cause you really need a perfect model to predict
[20:28:27] -!- SEL has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[20:28:37] <zeeshan|2> in class we always assumed the machine was rigid
[20:28:44] <zeeshan|2> it wasn't a g0704
[20:28:44] <zeeshan|2> :D
[20:28:45] <fenn> can measure deflection of the machine

[20:29:01] <zeeshan|2> you know what the hard part is?
[20:29:05] <zeeshan|2> determining the cutting forces
[20:29:13] <zeeshan|2> to figure out h ow much your tool will deflect
[20:29:13] amnesic_away is now known as amnesic
[20:29:16] <fenn> i'm annoyed at how little quantification of machine rigidity is done in general
[20:29:18] <deep_pink> zeeshan|2: but if 0.1mm radial cut is too small what to try instad?
[20:29:30] <zeeshan|2> deep_pink: itll work
[20:29:39] <zeeshan|2> you'lljust be making very small chips
[20:29:48] <zeeshan|2> i think you machine can handle 2 mm radial doc no problem
[20:29:51] <deep_pink> I know like hair..
[20:30:01] <zeeshan|2> try your .1mm
[20:30:03] <zeeshan|2> try 2mm
[20:30:07] <furrywolf> so... how much should I bid, given that it's sealed bids?
[20:30:07] <fenn> isn't cutting force proportional to the cross sectional area of each chip? times the workpiece material tensile strength
[20:30:07] <zeeshan|2> you're not gonna break your cool
[20:30:13] <PetefromTn_> that is just .0039" typical finish pass for most machines...
[20:30:16] <Jymmm> I'm in the process of uploading some photos, but how do you determine if a caliper or maybe a bearing/seal hasn't gone bad?
[20:30:35] <zeeshan|2> fenn: i wish it was that simple :P
[20:30:38] <deep_pink> In a spot that there is about 1 mm the machine vaibrate sooo much
[20:31:55] <Wolf_> zeeshan|2: I though there is normally a spindle on output right? -10v 10v is coming off a different i/o ?
[20:32:06] <Wolf_> thought*
[20:32:21] <zeeshan|2> Wolf_: the -10 to 10 is an analog signal
[20:32:26] <PetefromTn_> setup your cutter for the least amount of stickout possible for the cut. use the shortes toolholder available. make sure your gibs are tight. try varying the spindle speed a bit up and down during the cut to see if it clears up
[20:32:27] <zeeshan|2> but the vfd also has some digital inputs
[20:32:31] * furrywolf pokes zee while waiting for a dollar amount
[20:32:37] <zeeshan|2> to tell it go reverse / fwd /
[20:32:40] <zeeshan|2> start stop etc

[20:33:42] * zeeshan|2 goes back to figuring this vfd nonsense
[20:33:46] <furrywolf> yes, then I said it was a sealed bid auction, and if I bid that, and win, I'll be paying that, even if no one else bids anything. heh.
[20:34:03] <zeeshan|2> furrywolf: i honestly stopped bidding like that
[20:34:06] <furrywolf> it's not a maximum bid, proxy bid, or anything like that.
[20:34:09] <zeeshan|2> gov auctions here are like that
[20:34:22] <zeeshan|2> you';ll have some tard there
[20:34:25] <zeeshan|2> that'll pay 10k for that machine
[20:34:27] <zeeshan|2> cause it's new looking
[20:34:32] <furrywolf> hrmm, 5500lbs isn't tooooo bad. my relative's neighbor's 5000lb forklift can probably move that.
[20:34:42] <zeeshan|2> ive seen some welders that go on kijiji for 500
[20:34:45] <zeeshan|2> go for double that on gov auctions
[20:34:48] <zeeshan|2> cause of the bid process
[20:34:59] <furrywolf> when we moved my 4000lb mill, he has his kids (I think one's 5 and one's 8, somewhere abouts there) climb on the back for extra weight. :P
[20:35:05] <zeeshan|2> lol
[20:35:34] <furrywolf> then they wanted to ride on the forks, but he made them go run home and back to fetch him more beer first. :)

[20:37:19] <furrywolf> googling the SL-1, apparantly it does use normal encoders and servo drives, will plug right into a mesa board.
[20:38:08] <Jymmm> 5 and 8yo can't weight but 140lbs combined
[20:38:21] <Jymmm> not very good ballast =)
[20:38:33] <XXCoder> depends on leverage

[20:44:18] <fenn> you can run it at a lower power...
[20:44:39] <furrywolf> fenn: until the starter for the converter trips trying to get the spindle up to speed. :)
[20:44:47] <zeeshan|2> furrywolf: i hope you win

[20:52:41] <furrywolf> next time you're looking for brake cleaner, go to the electronics store and buy "electric motor cleaner FOR USE ONLY ON ENERGIZED EQUIPMENT". that's right, for use only on live equipment. why? because apparantly they're some loophole in the law that lets them fill it with all the nice chlorinated solvents as long as it's only for use on energized equipment. :)

[20:56:30] <XXCoder> we need to try save envorment, by finding better ways to do stuff not by just banning stuff
[20:56:44] <XXCoder> though some seriously toxic stuff MUST be banned - like fracking
[20:56:55] <XXCoder> fracking fracking.
[20:57:03] <ssi> lol
[20:57:11] <ssi> propoganda machine got another one
[20:57:11] <furrywolf> the california brake cleaner is half as toxic... and half as effective, so you use twice as much.
[20:57:14] <malcom2073> ssi: +1
[20:57:31] <XXCoder> furrywolf: exactly my point
[20:57:40] <XXCoder> fnd better way thats less toxic
[20:57:44] <furrywolf> you can frack with many liquids, including plain water, which is quite common.
[20:57:52] <SpeedEvil> Fracking is not really harmful
[20:58:00] <malcom2073> The company I work for, they frack with water
[20:58:02] <SpeedEvil> disposing of the liquids used - yes - that's a problem
[20:58:12] <XXCoder> malcom2073: and you can light water on fire
[20:58:24] <malcom2073> XXCoder: You can light anything on fire
[20:58:27] <ssi> you can light anything on fire
[20:58:27] <ssi> lol
[20:58:30] <SpeedEvil> XXCoder: There were places you could do that before fracking
[20:58:36] <furrywolf> the crude oil is much more toxic than the water being used to access it. :P
[20:58:38] <XXCoder> rich guy who got rich fought to get fracking banned near his home
[20:58:45] <XXCoder> rich from fracking that is
[20:59:18] <zeeshan|2> since the mesa has sourcing outputs
[20:59:23] <zeeshan|2> i need to configure the vfd for sinking inputs
[20:59:24] <zeeshan|2> right?
[20:59:30] <XXCoder> SpeedEvil: thats the problem, if theres nice way to clean uo results im fine with fracking
[20:59:52] <SpeedEvil> Cleaning up the liquid is technologically trivial
[21:00:04] <SpeedEvil> It's simply somewhat more expensive
[21:00:22] <XXCoder> which means companies will give it the finger
[21:00:27] <XXCoder> and just inject back in
[21:01:12] * furrywolf wonders how many gallons of crude XXCoder uses every day, between vehicles, power, purchasing agricultural products, etc. :P
[21:01:14] <SpeedEvil> Nothing wrong with reinjection - done right
[21:01:34] <XXCoder> furrywolf: lots.
[21:01:52] <malcom2073> furrywolf: That's the "You use oil, so you can't try to improve the planet" argument though
[21:01:57] <cradek> http://www.okgeosurvey1.gov/pages/earthquakes/faq.php
[21:02:00] <cradek> scroll down to the graphs
[21:02:06] <XXCoder> furrywolf: im not hiding my usage, just saying find a better way. in fact group of researchers found a way to MAKE crude oil
[21:02:30] <XXCoder> malcom2073: yeah. I use 21 mpg van because I cannot afford better
[21:02:31] <furrywolf> malcom2073: no, it's the "you use lots of oil that was produced by fracking, stop complaining about fracking" argument. :)
[21:02:44] <XXCoder> malcom2073: I'm waiting for elio though. 84 mpg!
[21:03:00] <malcom2073> furrywolf: My favorite though, is when people complain about oil, and in the same breath, complain about the high price of fuel
[21:03:09] <furrywolf> lol
[21:03:15] <XXCoder> actually I want fuel prices to rise
[21:03:28] <malcom2073> Me too, I'll lose my contract if they stay this low :P
[21:03:30] <furrywolf> I had a chance to buy an electric van for $1000 a couple years back... I should have.
[21:03:31] <XXCoder> not too much, just enough for alternates to improve
[21:03:40] <Jymmm> XXCoder: A college prodiced a car back in the 80's that got 122MPG, a petorlium company (Shell?) bought the patent
[21:03:52] <malcom2073> Jymmm: Then the patent has expired, where's this patent?
[21:03:53] <cradek> haha Jymmm
[21:03:53] <furrywolf> as someone in the transportation industry, where fuel is a major cost, I want it to go down.
[21:04:05] <XXCoder> Jymmm: doubtful. like water engine
[21:04:11] <Jymmm> malcom2073: 1980's, not 1880's =)
[21:04:16] <malcom2073> Jymmm: Everyone who has claimed this, have tried to present all sorts of "supercarb" design patents
[21:04:17] <cradek> Jymmm: used to be 100mpg. it's getting better over time.
[21:04:20] <ssi> 100+ mpg isn't even hard to do
[21:04:31] <cradek> ssi: when that silly story started, it was
[21:04:52] <malcom2073> ssi: I got to work on wikispeed's 100mpg car
[21:04:55] <ssi> hell, my 5 passenger midsized normal 3300lb car is 60+mpg
[21:05:05] <Jymmm> XXCoder: Nope, that used parts from different mfg's... body was an MG iirc, then different carb, engine etc.
[21:05:06] <malcom2073> 100mph out of a stock honda civic engine, with some creative aerodynamics
[21:05:09] <malcom2073> 100mpg
[21:05:10] <ssi> my 200mph airplane is 25mpg
[21:05:12] <furrywolf> I want a subaru diesel. 65mpg in a full-size all-wheel-drive crossover/station wagon. :P
[21:05:31] <XXCoder> ssi: your pkane got better mpg than my van
[21:05:38] <Wolf_> some guy hyper milled a regular diesel jetta around the usa at a average of 81mpg or something
[21:05:39] <furrywolf> ssi: which car do you have?
[21:05:46] <ssi> furrywolf: VW jetta diesel
[21:05:48] <Jymmm> furrywolf: Ewwwww station wagon!!! You ride in the bitch seat wavign to everyone!!!

[21:05:55] <ssi> and it's 60+mpg even with the horrible EPA emissions tune
[21:06:08] <ssi> with a particulate filter delete and a more efficient tune, they do close to 70
[21:06:26] <XXCoder> planes use leaded though
[21:06:32] <XXCoder> ssi: has it changed?
[21:06:33] <furrywolf> ssi: figured. get a subaru instead. even better milage, and you get all-wheel-drive and more cargo room. :P
[21:06:40] <Wolf_> my TDI only gets 36mpg average....
[21:06:43] <furrywolf> Jymmm: huh?
[21:06:55] <malcom2073> My one car gets 8mpg
[21:07:12] <XXCoder> jeez malcom2073 get out and push it, better mpg lol
[21:07:21] <malcom2073> Lol
[21:07:25] <Jymmm> furrywolf:
http://smartbitchestrashybooks.com/images/uploads/station-wagon.jpg
[21:07:37] <Wolf_> lol, my work truck gets 9mpg...
[21:07:54] <XXCoder> http://www.eliomotors.com/ if you guys are curious
[21:07:55] <furrywolf> XXCoder: no. despite what all the hippies say, person-power is one of the LEAST efficient energy sources.
[21:08:09] <XXCoder> will make for great work transport
[21:08:13] <ssi> furrywolf: subaru doesn't have nearly the drag coefficient, and it certainly won't do as well with AWD
[21:08:25] <ssi> Wolf_: you're driving it wrong then
[21:08:26] <ssi> the TDI that is
[21:08:27] <XXCoder> furrywolf: did not say anything about human energy, only mpg lol
[21:08:44] <furrywolf> XXCoder: yes.
[21:08:45] <Jymmm> furrywolf: Wait, asking a hippie about energy (work), is like asking hitler about equal rights for all.
[21:08:59] <XXCoder> I'm not a hippie
[21:09:10] <XXCoder> I just care about everyone and earth
[21:09:28] <furrywolf> XXCoder: the amount of fuel used to produce food to enable a person to put out a certain amount of work far exceeds the amount of fuel needed to run an engine to do the same work.
[21:09:29] <Wolf_> ssi: yeah, its still new < 3k mi on it, loaded with EPA BS, and I have a lead foot (traffic court tomorrow attests to that lol)
[21:09:31] <XXCoder> so we has earth down billions of years, not just 100 years.
[21:09:39] <Jymmm> XXCoder: Then stop using crude oil and any/all of it's brproducts.... SOY for all!!!
[21:09:41] <XXCoder> furrywolf: I know!
[21:09:43] <cradek> furrywolf: good thing people don't have to push cars around much
[21:09:48] <XXCoder> furrywolf: I was kidding jeez lol
[21:10:29] <ssi> Wolf_: if I don't work at it, and I'm just driving around town, I average around 40-42
[21:10:30] <cradek> furrywolf: if so, I bet we'd quickly make them lighter
[21:10:41] <furrywolf> there's a whole institute here dedicated to person-powered garbage... they have demos like a bicycle-powered blender, a bicycle-powered television, a bicycle-powered washing machine, etc, etc....
[21:10:49] <Wolf_> ssi: left out mine is a DSG too
[21:10:50] <XXCoder> Jymmm: no alteratives for poor
[21:11:01] <ssi> I'm not sure if that helps or hurts
[21:11:03] <ssi> mineas a manual
[21:11:13] <XXCoder> Jymmm: elio is great alternative, once it gets made. cheap and 84 mpg
[21:11:16] <ssi> also, is yours a jetta, golf, jsw, or what?
[21:11:21] <ssi> the jetta has the lowest Cd
[21:11:29] <Wolf_> golf sportwagen
[21:11:35] <ssi> yeah they don't do quite as well
[21:11:48] <ssi> hatchbacks have a shitty drag profile
[21:11:53] <furrywolf> Elio is an ugly piece of unsafe crap.
[21:11:55] <ssi> you can see it in the dirt patterns that accrue on them
[21:12:08] <ssi> furrywolf: I want to enter one of those human-powered flight contests
[21:12:08] <XXCoder> furrywolf: and it will replace many of shitty cars with low mpg
[21:12:15] <ssi> and make a turbine powered helicopter that runs off liposuction waste
[21:12:19] <malcom2073> The problem with things like the ello, is they're really only practical for trendy suurbanites
[21:12:20] <XXCoder> furrywolf: like my van. 21 mpg.
[21:12:23] <malcom2073> suburbanites*
[21:12:26] <Jymmm> Are we sure this is/was just a bad caliper, or could it be a bad bearing/seal???
http://imgur.com/a/JltUl/all
[21:12:26] <furrywolf> ssi: depends on the vehicle. my subaru back window stays clean. the toyota matrix I used to drive would cover the back window in dirt every day.
[21:12:47] <furrywolf> ssi: are you amazingly fit? :P
[21:12:51] <Wolf_> VW still gets better mpg then
http://i.imgur.com/yERX7l3.jpg
[21:12:52] <furrywolf> it seems to be a requirement for human-powered flight
[21:12:53] <XXCoder> malcom2073: no, its designed for home-work transport in most cases. in many of those cases, only one person in cr.
[21:13:04] <ssi> yes, it's amazing I fit into most airplanes
[21:13:20] <furrywolf> lol
[21:13:26] <XXCoder> malcom2073: if it was made to be trendy it would be $40000 or so
[21:13:53] <furrywolf> I was doing some back-of-brain figuring the other day, and I think we now have the technology to successfully build person-sized ornithopters for short flights.
[21:14:00] <furrywolf> using brushless motors and lifepo4 batteries.
[21:14:08] <malcom2073> heh
[21:14:18] <XXCoder> furrywolf: what would range be
[21:14:21] <ssi> glad you qualified that with "short flights" :)
[21:14:23] <SpeedEvil> furrywolf: it's all in the disk loading
[21:14:30] <ssi> energy density still isnt' good enough for batteries
[21:14:32] <SpeedEvil> XXCoder: it depends what you want.
[21:14:38] <ssi> gasoline has an amazingly high energy density
[21:14:52] <XXCoder> she said batteries
[21:14:53] <furrywolf> XXCoder: a few minutes
[21:15:05] <SpeedEvil> you can do a ~1m*1m platform which will get you to perhaps 2km altitude and back again, for perhaps 4 minutes of powered flight
[21:15:08] <furrywolf> ssi: yes, but it's also hard to apply that energy to the complex actuators needed.
[21:15:14] <XXCoder> furrywolf: lol awesome I guess, just like jet backpack. fun for few mins
[21:15:23] <SpeedEvil> furrywolf: I have a simple design for that for ornithopters.
[21:15:24] <ssi> for an ornithopter sure
[21:15:26] <SpeedEvil> furrywolf: you cheat.
[21:15:27] <XXCoder> furrywolf: micro tubroines
[21:15:29] <ssi> but ornithopters are silly beasts :)
[21:15:38] <furrywolf> and this is a case where power density matters more than energy density... as I said, short flights. :P
[21:15:46] <SpeedEvil> furrywolf: you make teh wing completly rigid, and weight-shift with a large swinging weight
[21:15:58] <SpeedEvil> rotating around the wing axis
[21:15:59] <furrywolf> ssi: the person who manufactures an affordable ornithopter will be fucking rich.
[21:16:01] <ssi> but in the general case of electric flight, the flight times are just too low to be practical
[21:16:04] <ssi> because of energy density
[21:16:12] <furrywolf> yes
[21:16:15] <ssi> fucking rich temporarily
[21:16:19] <ssi> until the lawsuits start rolling in :D
[21:16:33] <malcom2073> Get rich, sell company to someone else, run
[21:16:34] <malcom2073> run fast
[21:16:37] <furrywolf> I think that once you have enough money, lawsuits no longer apply to you. :P
[21:16:50] <ssi> I think you're wrong
[21:17:07] <furrywolf> when was the last time you heard of a rich person or corporation being sued for more than a couple percent of their liquid assets? :P
[21:17:28] <furrywolf> (successfully)
[21:17:29] <XXCoder> furrywolf: idea: plug cable. limited range but unlimited time
[21:17:32] <ssi> when was the last time you heard of an aircraft company going out of business because of product liability lawsuits?
[21:18:15] <XXCoder> furrywolf: just watch out for blackouts LOL
[21:18:20] <XXCoder> well time to go work laters
[21:19:23] <furrywolf> dunno. I don't pay any attention to aircraft companies unless it makes the news, and last I heard boeing, embraer etc were all still around.
[21:19:52] <ssi> boeing doesn't make things that morons can get their hands on and kill themselves and others in
[21:20:09] <ssi> at least not anymore :D
[21:20:09] <furrywolf> ... you've met your average soldier, right? :P
[21:20:30] <ssi> a soldier isn't an individual moron
[21:20:43] <ssi> a soldier is an agent of a larger moron
[21:20:55] <ssi> which oddly enough doesn't sue companies when it misuses their products
[21:21:05] <Jymmm> Does this photo look like it's the bearing/seal/axle -or- the caliper that went bad ???
http://imgur.com/a/JltUl#26
[21:21:07] <furrywolf> my truck was built to be soldier-proof. it has big handles, big labels, and a governor, even though it's a gasoline engine.
[21:21:19] -!- SpeedEvil has quit [Ping timeout: 250 seconds]
[21:21:27] <malcom2073> Jymmm: Is that grease, or brake fluid?
[21:21:34] <malcom2073> Or gear oil?
[21:21:43] <furrywolf> just what I was about to say... what fluid seems to be leaking? :P
[21:22:04] <Jymmm> malcom2073: I don't know. I hit it a bit with charcoal lighter fluid to loosen it up, then with brake cleaner.
[21:22:12] -!- SpeedEvil [SpeedEvil!~quassel@tor/regular/SpeedEvil] has joined #linuxcnc
[21:22:36] <furrywolf> my guess from the level of grime is gear oil. smell it.
[21:22:43] <furrywolf> gear oil has a distinctive smell. it smells like gear oil.
[21:23:11] <Jymmm> furrywolf: Of course I have nfc what that smells like.
[21:23:26] <furrywolf> you'll know it when you smell it. :P
[21:23:40] <Wolf_> is that ford 8.8 rear? limited slip?
[21:23:44] <Jymmm> I don't smell anything
[21:23:51] <malcom2073> Then it's not gear oil
[21:23:55] <Jymmm> Wolf_: 2001 For Expedition XLT 2WD
[21:24:01] <Jymmm> Ford*
[21:24:18] <furrywolf> was your brake fluid low?
[21:24:24] <Jymmm> No
[21:24:25] <furrywolf> is the axle gear oil level low?
[21:24:36] <furrywolf> did you go offroading and fill the axle with water?
[21:24:39] <Jymmm> I've never touvhed it.
[21:24:43] <Wolf_> if it has limited slip rear you will be able to smell it, smells lovely
[21:25:36] * furrywolf has filled axle with water.
[21:25:36] <furrywolf> axle
[21:25:38] <furrywolf> axleS
[21:25:38] <furrywolf> grr
[21:26:01] <Wolf_> ^ check axle vent tube, make sure its not plugged either
[21:26:10] <Jymmm> As you can see in the other pics, I have the brakes completely apart. Before I put everthing back together I'm just trying to determine if it's just the bad caliper, or something more
[21:27:05] <furrywolf> what other pics?
[21:27:07] <Jymmm> Wolf_: I saw a small hose coming off the axel, but no clue.
[21:27:23] <Jymmm> furrywolf: the 57 others at the top
[21:27:25] <furrywolf> does there seem to be gear oil leaking out?
[21:27:26] <furrywolf> lol
[21:27:50] <Wolf_> looks like the axle seal is weeping a little
[21:28:06] <furrywolf> gear oil has a noticable smell and feel, very different from brake fluid's smell and feel.
[21:28:23] <ssi> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTFv2Bbx-48
[21:28:28] <Jymmm> furrywolf: a stench? I smell NOTHGIN at all right now.
[21:28:29] <Wolf_> I would go with the checking the axle vent imo
[21:28:48] <Jymmm> Wolf_: whats it for/do ?
[21:29:02] <furrywolf> with the age of the vehicle, a bad axle seal is entirely plausible.
[21:29:13] <furrywolf> how do the wheel bearing feel? measure/feel endplay and sideplay.
[21:29:19] <Jymmm> furrywolf: only 79K miles on it
[21:29:28] <Wolf_> air vent for the axle housing so it doesn’t pressurize when hot and push oil out the seals
[21:29:51] <furrywolf> Wolf_: my truck was available with an option to intentionally pressurize the axles, to about 3psi. :P
[21:30:08] <Wolf_> hehe nice
[21:30:22] <Jymmm> furrywolf: When I grabbed the studs, that was a tiny bit of up/down play, maybe 15-20 thousands?
[21:30:26] <Wolf_> think a plugged vent will do better then 3psi
[21:30:44] <Wolf_> Jymmm: thats just ford quality
[21:30:53] <Jymmm> Wolf_: Heh, I figured =)
[21:31:04] <furrywolf> the vents for the axles, transmission, t-case, bellhousing, etc, all tee together with the PCV system and run to the air cleaner.
[21:31:14] <furrywolf> 15 thous means your bearings are shot, and it probably ate the oil seal.
[21:31:46] <Jymmm> wolf says normal, furrywolf says shot bearings
[21:31:50] <Wolf_> one on most fords comes off the axle, and then is clipped on the frame rail with a hooked shaped plastic tube
[21:32:53] <zeeshan|2> gear oil smells like dirty sweat
[21:32:57] <zeeshan|2> massive BO
[21:33:00] <zeeshan|2> :D
[21:33:07] <furrywolf> if you have the fording kit, the pcv system is fitted with a switchable pressure relief valve. if you pull the fording handle, it isolates the block from the intake, and lets the blowby gasses build up to 3psi. since everything is teed together, this pressurizes the engine, transmission, t-case, bellhousing (sealed), axles, etc. :)
[21:33:17] <zeeshan|2> whatever leak that is
[21:33:19] <zeeshan|2> has been going on for a while
[21:33:26] <zeeshan|2> cause that crud has built up
[21:33:30] <Wolf_> Jymmm: if in doubt, price out the parts, its not too hard of a job. worst part is putting the oil back in the axle (mostly due to the smell)
[21:34:06] <furrywolf> the way you check its operation is the shifter boot (cloth reinforced) swells up and balloons.
[21:34:31] <Wolf_> lol cool furrywolf, what car?
[21:34:39] <furrywolf> Wolf_: jeep m715
[21:35:08] <furrywolf> designed for deep-water fording without water getting into any part of the mechanics, by maintaining a positive pressure on the whole system.
[21:35:20] <Jymmm> Ok, let me rub a finger thru that crud and check the strench level. it seems the only real way to tell if the caliper ahs been leaking for a while like zeeshan|2 mentioned, or axle/bearing/seal related... brb
[21:35:45] <furrywolf> if you have 15 thous of sideplay, I'd assume something is wrong.
[21:35:56] <zeeshan|2> did i read that right
[21:36:07] <zeeshan|2> the studs for your wheels
[21:36:10] <zeeshan|2> have 15 thou play?
[21:36:12] <zeeshan|2> =D
[21:36:40] <Jymmm> zeeshan|2: not the studs themselves, what they are connected to
[21:36:44] <zeeshan|2> oh
[21:36:46] <zeeshan|2> your wheel bearing or
[21:36:48] <zeeshan|2> ball joint is gone
[21:36:51] <zeeshan|2> wait
[21:36:52] <zeeshan|2> this is rear
[21:36:58] <zeeshan|2> it could also be your tie rod

[21:37:09] <zeeshan|2> tighten the studs temporarily

[21:37:25] <zeeshan|2> youll see the movement

[21:49:50] <zeeshan|2> i wasnt here :{
[21:50:11] <zeeshan|2> you need to check where that 15 thou of play is coming
[21:50:17] <zeeshan|2> if its wheel bearing, its a big deal
[21:50:26] <Jymmm> http://imgur.com/a/JltUl/all
[21:50:27] <zeeshan|2> if its a control arm, its not as big of a deal
[21:50:38] <zeeshan|2> but you'll need to fix it soon
[21:51:22] <zeeshan|2> Jymmm: im with furrywolf on this
[21:51:31] <zeeshan|2> it looks like gear oil that has been slowly seeping for a long time
[21:51:36] <zeeshan|2> like at least 4-5 months
[21:51:40] <Jymmm> zeeshan|2: it has ZERO smell
[21:51:51] <furrywolf> you occasionally find odorless gear oil. it's usually garbage.
[21:51:51] <zeeshan|2> smell is subjective right
[21:52:09] <zeeshan|2> but the fact that its right near your solid rear axle to hub interface
[21:52:16] <zeeshan|2> really makes me think its a failed seal
[21:52:17] <zeeshan|2> or gasket
[21:52:29] <Jymmm> zeeshan|2: did you see the first pics?

[21:54:04] <zeeshan|2> just open the fill plug
[21:54:07] <zeeshan|2> if fluid doesnt piss out
[21:54:08] <Jymmm> Wolf_: the big round thing?
[21:54:08] <zeeshan|2> its low
[21:54:18] <zeeshan|2> add fluid :P

[21:56:36] <zeeshan|2> andypugh:
[21:56:39] <zeeshan|2> looks like DELTA!!!!
[21:56:39] <zeeshan|2> :D
[21:57:01] <zeeshan|2> you forgot the ground washer
[21:57:04] <zeeshan|2> on the other screw :P
[21:57:42] <andypugh> Yes, though that is slightly misleading as the sides of the delta are toplogically nodes.
[21:58:10] <andypugh> The box had 4 large and 3 small washers I just re-used them.
[21:58:44] <zeeshan|2> theres a washer
[21:58:49] <zeeshan|2> on top right screw doing nothing
[21:58:49] <zeeshan|2> :P
[21:59:00] * zeeshan|2 pays attention to detail
[21:59:05] <andypugh> Yes, and there is a missing screw too.
[21:59:10] <zeeshan|2> yes
[21:59:16] <zeeshan|2> that doesnt bother you?
[21:59:17] <furrywolf> andypugh: what should I bid on a Mori Seiki SL-1? :)
[21:59:22] <zeeshan|2> that bothers the hell out of me
[21:59:23] <andypugh> You might be over-estimating the access I have to the box.
[22:00:02] <andypugh> If I could find a cheese-head UNF screw of the right size, I would replace the missing one. But the chances are approximately zero.
[22:00:19] <cradek> yeah make sure it's black too
[22:00:23] <zeeshan|2> LOL
[22:00:24] <zeeshan|2> i would
[22:00:34] <zeeshan|2> (i wouldnt)
[22:00:39] <zeeshan|2> but i definitely would get the screw
[22:00:43] <zeeshan|2> cause just bothers me for some reason
[22:00:50] <zeeshan|2> thats why it takes me long to finish things
[22:00:56] <cradek> zeeshan|2: perhaps you could mail him one
[22:01:07] <zeeshan|2> i actually have that screw size
[22:01:11] <zeeshan|2> if its standard electric unf stuff
[22:01:15] <andypugh> I wasn’t aware that it was missing until I looked at the photo.
[22:01:16] <furrywolf> cradek: what should I bid on a Mori Seiki SL-1? :)
[22:01:16] <zeeshan|2> looks like #10
[22:01:19] <zeeshan|2> or 12
[22:01:41] <andypugh> I bet I can’t get a #10 screw here.
[22:01:56] <zeeshan|2> #10 screw for kurt vise
[22:01:58] <zeeshan|2> sounds like a deal
[22:02:05] <zeeshan|2> :D
[22:02:57] <andypugh> There is only one listing on eBay UK for UNF cheese-head.
[22:02:59] <furrywolf> bah, you're all no help. :P
[22:03:00] <furrywolf> bbl
[22:03:08] <zeeshan|2> furrywolf: $5r
[22:03:15] <cradek> furrywolf: it's a mistake to base what you're willing to pay on what others are willing to pay
[22:03:34] <cradek> (which is why I hate hate hate auctions)
[22:03:42] <furrywolf> how about basing my opinion of the machine's value on other people's opinion of the machine's value?
[22:03:47] <andypugh> furrywolf: Think of a price, then imagine you have won it, and are about to pay. How do you feel?
[22:03:59] <cradek> yes!
[22:04:11] <cradek> then imagine you DIDN'T win it. How do you feel?
[22:04:20] <cradek> if you're pretty much ok both ways, that's the price you should bid
[22:04:32] <zeeshan|2> i'd pay $2000
[22:04:34] <zeeshan|2> for that machine
[22:04:36] <zeeshan|2> no more
[22:04:50] <furrywolf> I'll feel mad that I don't have a place to put it and I'll have to have a stupidly shiny bit of equipment under a tarp in the driveway taking up my parking spot because I can't afford a hose.
[22:04:52] <furrywolf> house
[22:05:04] <cradek> so if someone else gets it for $2001 you'd be fine? if so that's the right bid.
[22:05:11] <zeeshan|2> actually
[22:05:15] <zeeshan|2> cradek you make a good point
[22:05:18] <fenn> add weird numbers to the end
[22:05:23] <zeeshan|2> rule #1 of bidding, never put a whole number
[22:05:26] <zeeshan|2> cause thats what most people do
[22:05:28] <zeeshan|2> silly me
[22:05:33] <zeeshan|2> yep fen :P
[22:05:42] <furrywolf> yes, I know that, and was planning on that.
[22:05:46] <fenn> take your favorite prime number and multiply it by your other favorite prime number
[22:05:50] <furrywolf> I can't store it and I can't power it, but I want it. :(
[22:05:53] <zeeshan|2> furrywolf: maybe bidding isn't a silly thing
[22:05:56] <zeeshan|2> is i mean
[22:05:59] <zeeshan|2> cause you dont have the space
[22:06:04] <ssi> or the money :P
[22:06:22] <Wolf_> win it, ship it to me, I’ll clean it up for you and store it

[22:08:41] <zeeshan|2> ^ sounds right? :P
[22:09:16] <furrywolf> andypugh: there won't be others around here. there is NO cnc industry around here. That one, at our only college, is the only one in existance. lol
[22:09:27] <furrywolf> if I don't buy it now, any one I buy in the future will require a road trip.
[22:09:39] <zeeshan|2> buying a machine
[22:09:41] <zeeshan|2> to put it under a tarp
[22:09:44] <zeeshan|2> is a really dumb idea
[22:09:55] <zeeshan|2> thats how you become a hoarder
[22:10:05] <andypugh> Oh, maybe it is worth grabbing then. Can you buy a shed to put it in?
[22:10:21] <furrywolf> We have no industry left, at all. Nada. The only working machine shop left in the area is the one working mill left in the area, and it's entirely manual. (a relative is a millwright there, one of the 5 millwrights left in the county)
[22:10:48] <cradek> if it's 8' tall or less you could rent a garage for storage while you build
[22:11:00] <andypugh> To me a millwright works on windmills and watermills.
[22:11:04] <furrywolf> There's two local engine-focused machine shops, and they're all manual machines.
[22:11:20] <furrywolf> The local fab shop finally got into the digital age and got a plasma table, but the rest of the shop is manual.
[22:11:30] <furrywolf> andypugh: here a millwright works on sawmills. :)

[22:14:35] <furrywolf> the storage units have 120V 15A outlets... not 15hp 3ph outlets. :)
[22:15:18] <andypugh> You just need a generator.

[23:14:07] <Rab> deep_pink, I got better results convential milling with a 1/4" 2 flute carbide end mill.
[23:14:12] <skunkworks> either way the shavings are going to wrap around your tool and pull your cell phone out of your pocket..

[23:15:07] <deep_pink> what cellphone?
[23:15:32] amnesic_away is now known as amnesic
[23:15:35] <Rab> Climb milling seems like it would cause more friction and do a worse job of clearing swarf. I tried it, and the finish wasn't as nice.

[23:34:56] <PetefromTn_> JT-Shop you gonna make a larger table top for it? Otherwise looks great man..
[23:35:27] <JT-Shop> yea, need to, a buddy gave me a cast iron one that is just a tad too big to fit :(
[23:35:44] <JT-Shop> that top was a cobble up about 10 years ago...
[23:35:44] <PetefromTn_> MAKE it ift
[23:35:46] <PetefromTn_> fit
[23:36:07] <PetefromTn_> what's your max throat on it?
[23:36:22] <JT-Shop> it's a 7 x 12
[23:37:02] <PetefromTn_> I wonder how feasible it would be to fab up some new blocks to twist the blade a touch more for more throat?
[23:37:27] <fenn> less twist
[23:37:46] <PetefromTn_> Oh yeah it would be less huh
[23:37:49] <PetefromTn_> WIN
[23:37:53] <JT-Shop> change it in any way and you lose somewhere
[23:38:03] <PetefromTn_> I don't see how?
[23:38:10] <JT-Shop> now it is unlimited in X
[23:38:19] <JT-Shop> if you get more Y you loose X
[23:38:44] <JT-Shop> if the blade was not twisted then unlimited Y depth but X is now 7"
[23:38:54] <fenn> when you expect bells, it's whistles
[23:39:11] <JT-Shop> yes exactly
[23:39:11] <PetefromTn_> I don't see how that is correct
[23:39:28] <JT-Shop> btw fenn did you check out the 2.7 docs since I fixed the rest
[23:39:52] <PetefromTn_> if the guides did not twist the blade at all the blade would be inline with the wheels which are parallel to each other
[23:40:13] <PetefromTn_> so you would get the full width of the distance between the blade and arm
[23:40:15] <JT-Shop> in the conventional setup with the blade on a 45 I have unlimited X if the blade is at 0 then I have unlimited Y
[23:40:34] <PetefromTn_> when you twist it as it comes you increase that angle moving it toward the arm making the 7" throat
[23:40:37] <JT-Shop> yea and unlimited depth of Y
[23:41:02] <JT-Shop> you only exchange the X and Y depth by twisting the blade
[23:41:28] <PetefromTn_> well I don't see it but I will take your word for it I guess
[23:41:39] <fenn> JT-Shop: looks good here, only a minor nitpick was detected: HTML warning: line 261 and 272, attribute lacks closing quote
