[00:00:10] <MattyMatt> mine woulda fetched as much as the scrap, on ebay
[00:00:38] <MattyMatt> scrappers here want it rolling tho, dunno if they'd have taken it with no wheels
[00:02:58] <zeeshan|2> they just pull it up on the trailer
[00:03:00] <zeeshan|2> ive seen it done
[00:03:02] <zeeshan|2> last time i did this
[00:03:08] <zeeshan|2> i had it sitting on massive amount of wood
[00:03:18] <zeeshan|2> and they slid is flat bed about 2 feet under the car
[00:03:22] <zeeshan|2> and dragged it up
[00:04:01] <MattyMatt> fair enough. I guess they'll pull them out of ditches upside down like that and stuff too
[00:04:46] <furrywolf> for sliding non-rolling things, they have plastic sliders (like the ones for moving furniture, but bigger) they can stick under it.
[00:05:27] <MattyMatt> putting 4 car wheels on a workbench would be a laugh. waste of drawer space tho
[00:06:36] <furrywolf> grrrr. and archive.org has the index pages on the site, but not the image pages or images.
[00:07:38] <furrywolf> http://www.swapmeetdave.com/Humor/Workshop/Mayojack.htm yay, he has two of the photos.
[00:08:35] <furrywolf> that sucks the old safety photo of the week site is gone, and archive.org didn't bother saving it.
[00:09:16] <MattyMatt> horizontal feafspring on the beetle, never noticed that before

[00:27:34] <furrywolf> http://www.public.navy.mil/navsafecen/Documents/Photo/551-600/573.pdf
[00:32:33] <zeeshan|2> well
[00:32:37] <zeeshan|2> there goes that plan of keeping the wheels lol
[00:32:46] <zeeshan|2> the lug nuts are seized on there good
[00:32:51] <zeeshan|2> and its too late to be impacting outside
[00:33:03] <zeeshan|2> worse thing you can do to a car: leave it sitting.
[00:33:27] <furrywolf> bigger piece of pipe.
[00:33:29] <Tom_itx> zeeshan|2, tighten em until they snap off
[00:33:34] <zeeshan|2> rofl Tom_itx
[00:33:39] <zeeshan|2> its not worth it
[00:33:43] <Tom_itx> you shouldn't care about the lugs
[00:33:56] <zeeshan|2> i was using a 3ft cheater
[00:33:58] -!- Loetmichel2 [Loetmichel2!~cylly@p54B10963.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #linuxcnc
[00:34:06] <Tom_itx> you needed an 8' cheater
[00:34:07] <zeeshan|2> i can tell the ujoint will snap
[00:34:07] <PetefromTn_> you shouldn't care about the neighbors either ;)
[00:34:12] <zeeshan|2> i need to go to a 3/4"
[00:34:15] <zeeshan|2> which i dont has
[00:34:19] <Tom_itx> i keep one behind the garage for such occasions
[00:34:24] <zeeshan|2> PetefromTn_: haha
[00:34:28] -!- Loetmichel has quit [Ping timeout: 246 seconds]
[00:34:49] <Tom_itx> yeah the cops watch my neighbors for me
[00:34:53] <Wolf_Mill> I just use my big torque wrench...
[00:35:12] <zeeshan|2> i hope ure kidding
[00:35:12] <zeeshan|2> :P
[00:35:16] <Wolf_Mill> nope
[00:35:22] <zeeshan|2> thats not good for a torque wrench
[00:35:26] <zeeshan|2> good way to lose calibration
[00:35:31] <Wolf_Mill> low scal on it is 500ft-lbs
[00:35:36] <zeeshan|2> !
[00:35:56] <zeeshan|2> im so stressed about tomorrow
[00:36:01] <zeeshan|2> i really thjink 25000lb
[00:36:02] <Wolf_Mill> its 3/4" drive 4.5' long
[00:36:05] <zeeshan|2> is going to sink my asphalt driveway
[00:36:12] <zeeshan|2> last time ihad a 25000lb truck on there
[00:36:19] <zeeshan|2> the asphalt moved like water
[00:36:31] <zeeshan|2> but miraculsly it went back up
[00:36:32] <PetefromTn_> hehe
[00:36:33] <furrywolf> why do you need a u-joint for removing lugs?
[00:36:35] <Tom_itx> zeeshan|2, lay plywood down
[00:36:56] <zeeshan|2> Tom_itx: i dont have anything big enough
[00:36:59] <zeeshan|2> to bring ply sheets home
[00:37:02] <zeeshan|2> i always have to get em cut down
[00:37:18] <Tom_itx> so scatter the sawdust around then
[00:37:19] <furrywolf> get a real vehicle? :)
[00:37:37] <Tom_itx> it won't be quite as effective...
[00:37:39] <furrywolf> and... why do you need a u-joint? lol
[00:37:49] <zeeshan|2> furrywolf: breaker bar has that
[00:37:55] <zeeshan|2> forget the wheels
[00:37:57] <zeeshan|2> its not worth it
[00:38:09] <zeeshan|2> the scrappers will give me $150 for it
[00:38:13] <zeeshan|2> ill donate that 150 to a charity
[00:38:15] <Tom_itx> but they're so sentimental
[00:38:27] <zeeshan|2> Tom_itx: they're gonna collect dust in my basement
[00:38:34] <zeeshan|2> which really isn't good
[00:38:41] <furrywolf> http://www.swapmeetdave.com/Humor/Workshop/ProppedUp.htm
[00:38:41] <Tom_itx> until you need some wheels to prop your next one on
[00:38:42] <zeeshan|2> i rather take that money and give it to charity
[00:38:53] <jdh> you can give it to me.
[00:38:54] <zeeshan|2> i have 10 sets of wheels maan
[00:38:57] <zeeshan|2> i dont need more :P
[00:38:59] <furrywolf> or.... spend the money on lathe accessories.
[00:39:06] <zeeshan|2> LOL furry
[00:39:17] <PetefromTn_> what the hell are you talking about?
[00:39:28] <jdh> pete: he's sending me $150
[00:39:33] <furrywolf> if your breaker bar can't get a lug off, you need a bigger breaker bar. :P
[00:39:40] <furrywolf> one that doesn't say "china" on it.
[00:39:46] <PetefromTn_> heh
[00:39:51] <zeeshan|2> i have a longer one
[00:40:08] <zeeshan|2> i just needed it to be a bit harder
[00:40:13] <zeeshan|2> to make an excuse to leave em on there
[00:40:14] <furrywolf> a 1/2" drive breaker bar should be stronger than a stud, unless it's crap.
[00:40:40] <furrywolf> (a car-sized stud, obviously... heavy equipment and lorries not included)
[00:41:31] <furrywolf> the hardest wheel I've ever taken off was the lug bolts (not nuts, bolts) on a BMW that had been curbed hard enough to break the rim.
[00:41:40] <furrywolf> the bolts were fucked up, badly. I had to get my 1" impact on them.
[00:44:29] <zeeshan|2> this will come off w/ a breaker bar
[00:44:34] <zeeshan|2> dont wanna make the effort :P
[00:45:04] <furrywolf> http://www.swapmeetdave.com/Humor/Workshop/Forklift.htm now there's clever. :)
[01:03:47] <zeeshan|2> i need to invest in some 3/4" tooling
[01:04:05] <zeeshan|2> you rarely have to use that size for cars
[01:04:10] <zeeshan|2> unless something is up :P
[01:04:23] <zeeshan|2> Tom_itx: i replicated that bug
[01:04:34] <zeeshan|2> g10 l2 p1 x y z
[01:04:34] <PetefromTn_> I only have one breaker bar that is 3/4 drive
[01:04:37] <zeeshan|2> then load up another program.
[01:04:41] <zeeshan|2> axis doesn't update :P
[01:04:50] <zeeshan|2> PetefromTn_: i dont even have t hat
[01:04:56] <PetefromTn_> only use it in extreme circumstances LOL
[01:04:56] <zeeshan|2> i have a ton of tooling from 1/4 to 1/2
[01:05:09] <zeeshan|2> but the only thing that comes to 3/4 is a 1/2 to 3/4 adapter
[01:05:09] <zeeshan|2> lol
[01:05:11] <PetefromTn_> usually I just use a 1/2 inch with a big ass pipe on it or something
[01:06:25] <PetefromTn_> my oldest daughter bought my younger kids a hermit crab and a glass enclosure....better than the fish we had that died I guess LOL
[01:07:23] <zeeshan|2> lol
[01:07:31] <zeeshan|2> are they happy
[01:07:36] <zeeshan|2> messing with it?
[01:08:32] <PetefromTn_> yeah it is kinda neato I guess
[01:08:43] <PetefromTn_> its quieter than my dog ;)
[01:09:30] <PetefromTn_> funny I just received two emails from the two ebay sellers that I bought my new facemill inserts from saying that the items have shipped... that's a neat trick on a sunday...
[01:10:45] <Tom_itx> from china?
[01:10:57] <PetefromTn_> no they are supposed to be here
[01:11:25] <Tom_itx> maybe that's what happens when they print the shipper label
[01:11:39] <PetefromTn_> sure

[03:34:55] <[cube]> looks great dude!
[03:38:34] <zeeshan|2> thanks!
[03:39:54] <Tom_itx> colorful batch there
[03:40:24] <zeeshan|2> they all look like that pretty much
[03:40:25] <Tom_itx> has he sold any yet?
[03:40:33] <zeeshan|2> yea hes sold 15 so far
[03:40:52] <Tom_itx> better gear up for more..
[03:40:52] <zeeshan|2> after the treatment he gives em
[03:40:56] <zeeshan|2> it really turns out well
[03:41:03] <zeeshan|2> Tom_itx: i told him, im not making any for another 2 months
[03:41:07] <zeeshan|2> hes fine with it
[03:41:16] <zeeshan|2> it'll just make his product more rarer and desirable
[03:41:30] <zeeshan|2> i want to work on my car for the next month
[03:41:34] -!- uw has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[03:41:34] <zeeshan|2> and then the month after the lathe
[03:41:57] <Tom_itx> yeah you gotta get your lathe up an cnc-ified
[03:42:14] <zeeshan|2> dude im really worried about tomorrow
[03:42:16] <zeeshan|2> i hope it fits.
[03:42:22] <zeeshan|2> not sure what im gonna do if it doesnt make it thru the garage
[03:42:30] <Tom_itx> if not, i can make room here

[04:03:43] <furrywolf> shiny. I just saw the brightest meteor I've ever seen, by a couple orders of magnitude. came from high to the southeast from my position, vanished about 20 degrees over the horizon to the southwest. substantially brighter than sirius or the moon, although much smaller in size than the moon obviously...

[04:17:22] <furrywolf> southwest from here is the pacific ocean... and it was way out there... :P

[04:18:26] <zeeshan|2> bottom right
[04:18:35] <zeeshan|2> does anyone else see a pocket for a fork to go under?
[04:18:38] <zeeshan|2> i think i see one
[04:19:40] <furrywolf> a fork, or a prybar, or a place to hold a strap from sliding, dunno...
[04:19:53] <zeeshan|2> cause this guy will need to pick up the machine
[04:19:55] <zeeshan|2> from the right side
[04:19:57] <zeeshan|2> to get it in my garage
[04:20:01] <zeeshan|2> it would be the easiest
[04:20:13] <zeeshan|2> or he can bring it in from the front
[04:20:14] <furrywolf> so how long is it going to take to linuxcnc that thing? :P
[04:20:16] <zeeshan|2> and then rotate
[04:20:21] <zeeshan|2> a long time
[04:20:22] <zeeshan|2> prolly all winter
[04:20:25] <zeeshan|2> like the mill
[04:20:32] <zeeshan|2> i think it took about 4 months w/ the mill
[04:21:50] <furrywolf> I wish I had a place to put toys like that and money to buy toys like that and time to work on and learn to use toys like that. heh.
[04:22:08] <zeeshan|2> you think i got the place?
[04:22:09] <furrywolf> you're not done with the mill yet. still doesn't change tools on its own.
[04:22:11] <zeeshan|2> i am making it fit!
[04:22:16] <zeeshan|2> furrywolf: it never came w/ an atc.
[04:22:22] <zeeshan|2> so as far as im concerned, the conversion is done :P
[04:22:35] <furrywolf> yes, I think you have plenty of room. there's an ugly, slow car in the middle of the garage taking up tons of space. :P
[04:22:52] <zeeshan|2> ..coming from a person who has a non turbo subaru
[04:22:53] <zeeshan|2> :-)
[04:23:08] * furrywolf does have 4x4. :P
[04:23:14] <zeeshan|2> the car is the reason why i have the machines
[04:23:16] <zeeshan|2> fyi
[04:23:22] <zeeshan|2> if it wasn't for the car, the machines would be gone
[04:23:59] <zeeshan|2> same w/ the tig welder etc
[04:24:21] <zeeshan|2> i just made a deal with my wifey
[04:24:21] <furrywolf> lol
[04:24:25] <zeeshan|2> that all my shop stuff will be self funded
[04:24:30] <zeeshan|2> about 5 years ago
[04:24:33] <furrywolf> so you're buying a $$$$$ machine to make $$$$ of parts for the car? :P
[04:24:41] <zeeshan|2> pretty much
[04:24:43] <zeeshan|2> plus its a hobby right
[04:25:00] <zeeshan|2> one day i'd like to be able to produce every single part on the car
[04:25:04] <zeeshan|2> that is my ultimate goal
[04:25:31] <zeeshan|2> its only taken 10 years... so far
[04:25:32] <zeeshan|2> :(
[04:26:01] <zeeshan|2> http://i.imgur.com/Xo8ZLgN.gifv
[04:26:02] <zeeshan|2> wow
[04:26:04] <furrywolf> big parts require casting, while many body parts require stamping.
[04:26:18] <zeeshan|2> furrywolf: cast will be replaced with billet parts
[04:26:29] <zeeshan|2> and body parts are all made using sheet metal tools
[04:26:31] <zeeshan|2> not stamps
[04:26:37] <zeeshan|2> thats for production
[04:26:44] <furrywolf> billet is very expensive, and you might need to reinvent some geometry like blind internal passages.
[04:26:53] <zeeshan|2> drill hole
[04:26:53] <zeeshan|2> plug
[04:26:54] <zeeshan|2> :D

[04:27:11] <Jymmm> Thats what she said.
[04:27:41] <zeeshan|2> the things ifind hard
[04:27:43] <zeeshan|2> are crankshaft
[04:27:48] <zeeshan|2> and hypoid gears
[04:27:52] <furrywolf> how do you plan to make, say, frame rails? they're usually stamped sheetmetal. so are many designs of control arms, crossmembers, etc. never mind 2-way curves on every body sheetmetal panel... if you want something you can build without stamping, it's going to be an early jeep or landrover.
[04:28:09] <zeeshan|2> frame rails are easier than they appear

[04:28:15] <zeeshan|2> you can use a C channel
[04:28:38] <zeeshan|2> furrywolf: look @ english wheel
[04:28:39] <furrywolf> frame rails are harder than they appear. they usually taper, have bends in both directions, etc.
[04:28:51] <furrywolf> english wheels are an artform, and slow as fuck.
[04:28:52] <zeeshan|2> i replaced frame rails on a 240sx
[04:28:54] <zeeshan|2> easy!
[04:28:54] <zeeshan|2> :P
[04:29:01] <zeeshan|2> furrywolf: im building one offs
[04:29:03] <zeeshan|2> not production.
[04:29:12] <furrywolf> and like all artforms, don't tend to produce reproducable results. like left and right.
[04:29:19] <zeeshan|2> it makes zero sense to go get a 250 ton press
[04:29:25] <zeeshan|2> and spend 100,000 on one die.
[04:29:28] <zeeshan|2> to make yourself 1 hood.
[04:30:25] <zeeshan|2> it'd be easier to make a wood mold
[04:30:27] <furrywolf> I've thought about how to design a universal sheetmetal former, but haven't come up with any workable ideas.
[04:30:29] <zeeshan|2> and make cfr parts
[04:30:30] <zeeshan|2> cf
[04:30:38] <furrywolf> hydroforming is easier than stamping
[04:31:24] <zeeshan|2> in about 2 years when i get a new place
[04:31:31] <zeeshan|2> i intend to get a shit load of sheet metal tools
[04:31:49] <zeeshan|2> i only have a bead roller and english wheel
[04:32:00] <zeeshan|2> if you go to a sheet metal shop, they have some serious tools!
[04:32:04] <zeeshan|2> makes life easier
[04:32:07] <furrywolf> I wish I could get a place with a shop. :(
[04:32:14] <furrywolf> property that large is very expensive
[04:32:16] <zeeshan|2> set goals

[04:33:10] <furrywolf> folding is only a small subset of forming.
[04:34:25] <furrywolf> setting goals doesn't make them happen. for example, I could set a goal that 4.5 seconds after finishing this line, I'll have a billion dollars in the bank.
[04:34:32] <furrywolf> damn, goal missed. :(

[04:37:33] <zeeshan|2> Jymmm: that first machinei is cool
[04:37:46] <zeeshan|2> furrywolf: shrug
[04:37:51] <zeeshan|2> i set goals and achieve em
[04:37:54] <furrywolf> Jymmm: that's one of the designs I was thinking of, but I didn't think it'd be universal, or fast...
[04:38:55] <Jymmm> furrywolf: Overnight seems more than reasonable to me, it is custom one-off sheet metal forming
[04:40:05] * furrywolf has found something always fucks up any non-trivial goal
[04:40:33] <zeeshan|2> that strain path
[04:40:37] <zeeshan|2> would be completely different from stamping
[04:40:41] <zeeshan|2> but very cool concept

[04:47:23] <XXCoder> ahh no
[04:47:25] <XXCoder> single
[04:48:01] <Jymmm> I would toss on a piece of tape aroudn the leadscrew or shaft, then you can see if it pauses

[04:49:45] <XXCoder> its 2000 now
[04:49:54] <Jymmm> what drivers are you using?
[04:50:10] <XXCoder> tb6560
[04:50:19] <Jymmm> wtf is that? lol
[04:50:31] <XXCoder> cheap chinese cnc board

[04:50:42] <Jymmm> lol
[04:50:55] <Jymmm> consider a G540?
[04:51:16] <XXCoder> I do want a upgrade but not right away
[04:51:31] <XXCoder> just want cheap cnc to learn stuff till I upgrade stuff
[04:52:07] <Jymmm> DAMN... OEM750's aint cheap now
[04:53:53] <Jymmm> $150+
[04:54:03] <Jymmm> and from overseas too
[04:54:20] <XXCoder> found $300 one
[04:54:22] <XXCoder> looks nice
[04:54:29] <XXCoder> nice ports and all
[04:55:24] <Jymmm> Long ago I got 4 OEM750's -and- 3 OEM650's -and- a couple really nice stepper motors all for $240 shipped off ebay
[04:55:39] -!- furrywolf has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds]
[04:56:47] <Jymmm> XXCoder: The reason I asked what drivers is that quality ones have mid-band compensation to prevent stalling.

[04:59:21] <XXCoder> just mount stock directly on stepper secured to desk
[04:59:31] <XXCoder> not too fancy but wood dont need all that much force
[04:59:46] <Jymmm> you would be surprised
[05:00:47] <XXCoder> yeah?
[05:01:03] <XXCoder> I suppose hardwoods would need quite a for of force but less than Al
[05:01:10] <Jymmm> just depends on the wood and what you're doing
[05:03:01] <XXCoder> makes sense

[05:03:43] <XXCoder> like few cubes and really tiny cube
[05:03:55] <XXCoder> and few circles too. couldnt figure how to just do arc
[05:04:04] <Jymmm> Now, just add the hot glue gun and you'll have your very own 3D printer =)
[05:04:24] <XXCoder> still waiting on that $161 big hot glue gun machine
[05:04:35] <XXCoder> lets see if its fake or something
[05:04:52] <Jymmm> $161?! FUCK THAT.... $0.99 hot glue gun form dollar store
[05:05:02] <XXCoder> its commerical style
[05:05:03] <Praesmeodymium> I bought 2
[05:05:07] <XXCoder> normal price $1610
[05:05:16] <Jymmm> XXCoder: {SUCKER}
[05:05:21] <Praesmeodymium> I read from reviews it will need to be gutted and rebuilt
[05:05:28] <Praesmeodymium> which was my plan
[05:05:47] <XXCoder> just $161, just ballscrews and motors go quite a bit over that,
[05:05:54] <Praesmeodymium> the electronics motors, belts pulley all need to go
[05:06:07] <Praesmeodymium> ship[ping on a crated printer is about that
[05:11:33] <XXCoder> cool
[05:11:44] <XXCoder> hope come comes with mostly working printer lol

[05:24:31] <Praesmeodymium> I think people were pissed off at the cost when its not worth 800$
[05:24:51] <XXCoder> wonder if thats why its being sold in firesale
[05:24:54] <XXCoder> because its crappy
[05:25:15] <XXCoder> but then its parts is worth its parts. and 161 is even cheaper than shipping and its free shipping.

[05:26:23] <XXCoder> ot that thread?
[05:26:26] <XXCoder> im curious

[05:27:00] <Praesmeodymium> https://www.ez-robot.com/Community/Forum/posts.aspx?threadId=7623&page=1
[05:27:39] <XXCoder> geez volume is big
[05:28:26] <Praesmeodymium> somewhere in that thread is a config file that leads me to beleive the electronics are a mks based smoothie clone, and the z rod is a 5mm lead
[05:28:41] <XXCoder> 5mm? thats tiny
[05:28:46] <Praesmeodymium> and the xy belts are something fucked up
[05:28:48] <XXCoder> my router uses 16mm
[05:28:53] <Praesmeodymium> not diameter lead
[05:29:12] <XXCoder> ah 5 mm per rotation
[05:29:17] <XXCoder> like my machine
[05:29:19] <Praesmeodymium> which the smallest is like a 1205 iirc
[05:29:34] <Praesmeodymium> I'm sure they went chepest [possible
[05:30:00] <Praesmeodymium> 57mm motors are pretty shitty little nema 17's
[05:30:29] <XXCoder> to life that volume space geez
[05:30:35] <XXCoder> upgradable?
[05:30:42] <XXCoder> dont care if bit loss of volume
[05:30:49] <Praesmeodymium> I am betting on it
[05:30:53] <Praesmeodymium> lol
[05:31:19] <XXCoder> well I can always recycle my nema23s whenever I upgrade my cnc router
[05:31:48] <Praesmeodymium> the good news is I know I can make parts, mine would be printed and only a little shitty, but I have ton of decent nema17's I can drop inplace if theres room
[05:32:19] <XXCoder> I suspect my nema23s are little undersized for my cnc router
[05:32:27] <XXCoder> but it works so whatever for now lol
[05:32:32] <Praesmeodymium> psu, actual mcu I have a shit load of spare parts that need a frame
[05:33:09] <Praesmeodymium> I have no idea what the motors I picked up should be used for
[05:35:53] <Praesmeodymium> I've turned my packratism and retail therapy into an electonics and motors collection
[05:36:06] <XXCoder> lol
[05:39:57] <archivist> legitimate collection
[05:40:47] <[cube]> router, plasma cutter :)
[05:41:33] <XXCoder> cnc router only here currently but I hope to get a working cnc 3dprinter soon :)
[05:41:40] <Praesmeodymium> router for wood is a goal, but I realize I cant afford to do it right yet, and theres no point in doing it wrong
[05:42:05] <[cube]> Nice XXcoder
[05:42:18] <[cube]> printing is definitely fun
[05:42:22] <XXCoder> I finally ran it for first time and properly today
[05:42:31] <XXCoder> drew linuxcnc on paper
[05:42:33] <[cube]> right on
[05:42:34] <Praesmeodymium> bigger box for the laser cutter is another goal, turn the k40 china laser into something real
[05:42:47] <[cube]> neat
[05:42:51] <XXCoder> I really want laser printer but doubt I will do that.
[05:42:55] -!- arrowbook has quit [Ping timeout: 244 seconds]
[05:43:08] <[cube]> sometimes think about just ordering a tube
[05:43:09] <Praesmeodymium> I wish i had gone with a router insted of a laser tbh
[05:43:10] <[cube]> 60w maybe
[05:43:11] <archivist> doing it wrong at first is a good learning experience
[05:43:30] <Praesmeodymium> lasers have a rather limited use set
[05:43:38] <[cube]> gotta say tho, the glowforge looks amazing
[05:43:38] <XXCoder> archivist: indeed
[05:43:50] <XXCoder> I'm thinking about getting laser head for my router
[05:43:51] <Praesmeodymium> its a 40w laser
[05:44:01] <XXCoder> enclosure is a MUST when I do that
[05:44:05] <Praesmeodymium> the software and the lenses make it pretty damn useful
[05:44:08] <XXCoder> not in any hurrt though
[05:44:10] <Praesmeodymium> err cameras
[05:44:15] <[cube]> yeah
[05:44:23] <[cube]> the 'ease of use ' factor is impressive for sure
[05:44:39] <XXCoder> I plan to install shitty camera at my cnc router so I can look at it when at my room
[05:44:41] <Praesmeodymium> like the hardware is totally nothing special the software on the otherhand is a great take
[05:45:03] <Praesmeodymium> like laser origami is one of the uses they mention
[05:45:29] <[cube]> yeah
[05:45:34] <[cube]> they have a filter system too
[05:45:38] <[cube]> wonder how it works
[05:45:43] <Praesmeodymium> I dont think they had a program for it yet but they got 5million to develop it now
[05:45:44] <[cube]> $500 addon
[05:45:47] <[cube]> no need to vent
[05:46:24] <[cube]> this is how I came to know about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0R3mMUsHFvU
[05:46:26] <Praesmeodymium> I dont know how much I buy that
[05:46:43] <Praesmeodymium> its a small carbon filter in a serious fume generrating system
[05:46:53] <[cube]> that's what I was thinking
[05:46:57] <Praesmeodymium> also no air assist so fire danger ;)
[05:47:07] <[cube]> my impression from these guys is they're not messing around
[05:47:51] <XXCoder> I'm pretty sure you guys can add air assist
[05:47:57] <XXCoder> all it does is push air out right?
[05:48:03] <XXCoder> and bring in fresh filtered air
[05:48:24] <[cube]> the glowforge has venting required by default
[05:48:40] <Praesmeodymium> its a concetrated air stream preferably 20psi ish to remove heat and non ablative materials from the cut
[05:48:46] <[cube]> but you can upgrade $500 and apparently have it sit in the middle of the room and no venting required
[05:48:53] <[cube]> I'm skeptical how the filter works
[05:49:00] <[cube]> and how soon y ou need to replace it
[05:49:01] <Praesmeodymium> it also protects the lens
[05:49:34] <XXCoder> laser and cnc rourter is interesting counterpoints to each other
[05:49:55] <XXCoder> many parts can be made in either but theres some aspects either one cant and other can
[05:51:14] <Praesmeodymium> the dust and smoke picks up kinectic and thermal energy from the beam and can end up being hot sparks impacting the lenses and mirrors i think the mitigate this with a smaller covered beam path but the oout put lens will stick get smoke on it and it absorbs 20% or more of the power going through it
[05:51:52] <Praesmeodymium> lenses are generally consider s consumable like the laser tube

[05:52:25] <XXCoder> is that tube or diode?
[05:52:28] <Praesmeodymium> thats what I was saying, but it still has a lens out
[05:52:32] <XXCoder> looks like tube
[05:52:34] <Praesmeodymium> its a tube on the gantry
[05:52:39] <[cube]> ah
[05:52:48] <[cube]> the filter probably 'sucks' the fumes
[05:52:52] <[cube]> and runs them through it
[05:53:14] <[cube]> there was another product for printers like that called the 'scurbber' i think
[05:53:18] <[cube]> *scrubber
[05:53:28] <[cube]> but still i question how effective they are
[05:53:41] <[cube]> i'm drilling holes in my wall tomorrow to vent my printer fumes for the winter
[05:54:13] <XXCoder> can printer fumes be scubbed by house filuter type or is it too tiny paracules?
[05:55:00] <[cube]> i have no idea to be honest
[05:55:09] <[cube]> but the fumes do affect me
[05:55:20] <[cube]> giv eme headache, scrtchy throat (even PLA)
[05:55:28] <Praesmeodymium> way to small
[05:55:30] <XXCoder> thanks for warning
[05:55:37] <[cube]> so when you're printing for 12 hrs in a 10x10 room...
[05:55:54] <[cube]> its manageable in the summer with window open and fan

[05:56:16] <XXCoder> [cube]: use air heat exchanger to preserve heat in your space
[05:56:20] <XXCoder> easy to build too
[05:56:21] <[cube]> yeah
[05:56:25] <[cube]> i built one yesterday
[05:56:28] <Praesmeodymium> its abs thats bad pla doesnt look heavy
[05:56:31] <[cube]> well...started
[05:56:39] <XXCoder> nice nice
[05:57:19] <[cube]> http://i.imgur.com/4Gwry4R.jpg
[05:57:28] <XXCoder> just thought one of exampkles where laser rock and cnc router cant. sharp inside corners.
[05:57:49] <[cube]> for the cold air intake im going to pull it from one of those silly 'popcan' solar heaters lol
[05:57:52] <[cube]> figure it can't hurt
[05:58:03] <Praesmeodymium> I can laser fep and leather
[05:58:23] <Praesmeodymium> although fep fumes will kill you
[05:58:23] <XXCoder> so you pass inside and outside air though channels seperately? I'm imanaging such hard work so many small channels to connect?
[05:58:37] <[cube]> yeah
[05:58:43] <[cube]> the channels are alternating
[05:58:50] <[cube]> so i need to build the box next
[05:58:58] <[cube]> that quarantines off the channels
[05:58:59] <XXCoder> so its in, foam, out, foam, in, so on?
[05:59:05] <XXCoder> bit easier
[05:59:17] <[cube]> nono
[05:59:18] <[cube]> no foam
[05:59:25] <[cube]> its all coroplast
[05:59:25] <XXCoder> wouldnt metal one exchange heat easier?
[05:59:28] <XXCoder> oh
[05:59:36] <[cube]> http://i.imgur.com/rsXxply.jpg
[05:59:52] <XXCoder> ahh I see it now
[05:59:59] <[cube]> with this design you can expect approx 30% recovery
[06:00:00] <XXCoder> so one side is cold and other is inside
[06:00:07] <[cube]> yeah
[06:00:09] <[cube]> except...
[06:00:10] <XXCoder> isnt 50% perfect effecacy
[06:00:12] <[cube]> it'll be HOT printer air
[06:00:29] <XXCoder> not bd
[06:00:32] <[cube]> also the popcan 'preheater will help
[06:00:43] <[cube]> i'll be putting in thermometers in akll the spots for fun
[06:00:52] <XXCoder> all?
[06:00:55] <[cube]> ye
[06:01:04] <XXCoder> each holes?
[06:01:07] <XXCoder> or row?
[06:01:09] <[cube]> gonna run all the pc fans of an 85w solar panel
[06:01:20] <[cube]> no in eat spot to compare temps
[06:01:31] <[cube]> like... inside, outside, recovered
[06:01:35] <[cube]> *each spot
[06:01:39] <XXCoder> mkes sense
[06:02:22] <[cube]> also connecting in a soldering exhaust while im doing it
[06:02:33] <[cube]> but i'll have a blast gate closed when not in use
[06:02:35] <XXCoder> fume hood
[06:02:42] <[cube]> yeah, that hehe
[06:02:46] <XXCoder> not be confused with fume 'hood ;)
[06:03:01] <[cube]> fume 'extractor'
[06:03:08] <[cube]> hood is being generous
[06:03:21] <XXCoder> why not build one? it isnt too hard
[06:03:36] <[cube]> i am
[06:03:37] <XXCoder> ll you need is sides back and nice oven top
[06:03:49] <[cube]> i mean, it's going to be small
[06:03:52] <[cube]> like 20cm
[06:04:02] <[cube]> right above work area
[06:04:06] <XXCoder> you know those oven top vent thingy, just modify it a little and its now fume hood top
[06:04:15] <[cube]> yeah
[06:04:19] <[cube]> my space isn't big enough for that
[06:04:22] <XXCoder> go to habit for humaity for junky one for cheap
[06:04:23] <[cube]> thought about finidng a used one

[06:04:36] <XXCoder> trying to figure where to put my machine.
[06:04:38] <[cube]> but the small one i'm making will be more directed at the fumes
[06:04:43] <XXCoder> its in downstairs living room now./
[06:04:44] <[cube]> i'll soldering right under it
[06:04:50] <XXCoder> that works in least
[06:04:51] <[cube]> for your reference: http://i.imgur.com/apMQHa0.jpg
[06:05:00] <XXCoder> its not like youre using heavy chemicals.
[06:05:13] <[cube]> i'll be making mine bit different than that link
[06:05:17] <XXCoder> cheap build
[06:05:18] <[cube]> but gives u the idea
[06:05:23] <[cube]> ya
[06:05:46] <Praesmeodymium> I consider my resin printer rather toxic

[06:07:02] <XXCoder> hemp nice!
[06:07:13] <XXCoder> hemp really should replace most of wood needs
[06:07:33] <XXCoder> you can get more from arce, AND its annual harvest not per few years
[06:07:37] <Praesmeodymium> larger diameter nozzles .5mm+ are recommended for filaments like that smaller like to clog
[06:07:51] <XXCoder> and no, you CANT smoke hemp and get high. well you can but insanely hjard work.
[06:08:09] <Praesmeodymium> hypoxia just doesnt last as long
[06:08:22] <XXCoder> ok
[06:08:29] <XXCoder> funny, didnt plan to get one for a while
[06:08:34] <XXCoder> and.. whoa. :P
[06:09:32] <Praesmeodymium> well if that mingda is yer first 3d printer your natural instinct as a cnc guy to make everything stiffer and stronger is definetly correct for that machine ;)
[06:10:46] <Praesmeodymium> thingiverse has some upgrades according to that thread
[06:11:07] <XXCoder> nice!
[06:11:16] <XXCoder> love an item that can make upgrades for itself
[06:11:27] <XXCoder> I plan to cut some stuff to upgrade my cnc router too
[06:11:32] <XXCoder> like proper spindle holder
[06:11:47] <XXCoder> as well as vacuum hose holder and surrounds
[06:12:48] <XXCoder> I need much more stable base for it as table wobbles when cnc router runs and suddenly stops lol
[06:16:22] <XXCoder> Praesmeodymium: yet another hulk print lol
[06:16:36] <XXCoder> hulk must be everywhere near 3d printer lol
[06:16:50] <Praesmeodymium> I've never printed a hulk or a yoda
[06:16:54] <XXCoder> I need to get a unprinter when I get a printer so I can recycled.
[06:17:11] <XXCoder> I dont want hulk or yoda. my lego yoda will do for me forever.,
[06:17:20] <XXCoder> hes always been on shelf for long years now.
[06:17:29] <[cube]> lol
[06:17:51] <XXCoder> I bought it for $20. its valued MUCH more now.
[06:18:10] <[cube]> almost snagged a mindstorms set for $100
[06:18:22] <XXCoder> heh that one will never be valuable basically
[06:18:42] <XXCoder> but I loved my 2,0 but havent used it for long while now.
[06:18:47] <Praesmeodymium> recycled filament is crappy the plastic chains shorten everytime they get hot, it takes about 400w/h to melt a kg of plastic with an efficient plastic extrusion line
[06:18:57] <XXCoder> oh my mistake. its not hulk but satan
[06:19:07] <[cube]> lol
[06:19:09] <Praesmeodymium> I alos have a friend who makes filament for a living so take me with a grain of salt ;)
[06:19:20] <[cube]> yoda and satan's hybrid genetic offspring
[06:19:27] <XXCoder> Praesmeodymium: yea but I just refuse to throw it away
[06:19:33] <[cube]> melting filament not a good idea?
[06:19:42] <[cube]> over all?
[06:19:51] <[cube]> haven tmuch looked into it
[06:20:02] -!- Satri has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[06:20:12] <XXCoder> http://www.wired.com/2013/01/filabot-plastic-recycler/
[06:20:12] <Praesmeodymium> the polymer chains get shorter every time its been melted
[06:20:17] <[cube]> 1kg of plastic is about $30 for me (CAD)
[06:20:33] <[cube]> 400w for 1 hr seems like it'll be much less than that
[06:20:47] <[cube]> hmmm
[06:20:53] <XXCoder> it can use other plastics
[06:20:56] <[cube]> interesting
[06:20:59] <XXCoder> I want to use milk jug ones
[06:21:00] <Praesmeodymium> many abs jams are because the hotend was left hot for awhile cooking the abs into carbon and thats happensing at 220 degrees
[06:21:03] <XXCoder> but dunno if workable.
[06:21:18] <[cube]> is there a lot research supporting that?
[06:21:24] <[cube]> (in the context of 3d printing)
[06:21:39] <[cube]> also an argument can be made for melting pellet plastic to save $
[06:21:50] <Praesmeodymium> research in 3d printing lol not really anything being researched is being patented
[06:22:06] <Praesmeodymium> but supporting what?
[06:22:11] <XXCoder> �So far the plastics that work are HDPE, LDPE, ABS, NYLON. More to come on the different types that work.�
[06:22:16] <XXCoder> nice
[06:22:22] <[cube]> i thought aobut melting my bad pla prints in a toaster over into sheets
[06:22:24] <XXCoder> I have big amount of nylon from work
[06:22:26] <[cube]> then shredding them
[06:22:34] <XXCoder> slugs from parts that was made
[06:22:35] <[cube]> *oven
[06:22:45] <Praesmeodymium> yeah richrap designed a cheap pellet extruder you can get bulk pellets for cheap like 10$ a kg
[06:22:53] <XXCoder> [cube]: did you read my link
[06:23:04] <Praesmeodymium> http://richrap.blogspot.com/2014/12/no-more-filament-quest-for-universal.html
[06:23:13] <[cube]> which link?
[06:23:17] <Praesmeodymium> I am familiar with the filastruder
[06:23:29] <[cube]> i say shred your old prints and mix in with pellets
[06:23:38] <[cube]> nice
[06:23:38] <XXCoder> dang
[06:23:49] <XXCoder> it'd be more expensive than my would-be 3d printer.
[06:23:56] <XXCoder> by factor of 10
[06:24:14] <[cube]> i dont print enough to justifiy all that
[06:24:17] <[cube]> not yet anyway
[06:24:28] <XXCoder> theres project to do yourself
[06:24:32] <XXCoder> lemme find it
[06:24:34] <Praesmeodymium> I think the shape of the screw is wrong and that makes a neat proof of concept but simplifies plastic injection a little too much
[06:24:59] <XXCoder> found it
[06:25:00] <[cube]> XXCoder: you mean the lyman?
[06:25:00] <XXCoder> http://deltaprinter.co.za/filamentextruder/index.html
[06:25:26] <[cube]> i think the cost doesnt justify it for me
[06:25:37] <[cube]> DIY version is going to cost you $300 likely
[06:25:46] <[cube]> filastruder 4x that
[06:25:51] <[cube]> thats a lot of rolls
[06:25:55] <XXCoder> yeah just under 2x my printer lol
[06:26:12] <XXCoder> wonder if theres adoptor to just directly use pellets
[06:26:16] <XXCoder> pr ground plastics
[06:26:20] <[cube]> thats what he just pasted
[06:26:23] <[cube]> i think
[06:26:34] <[cube]> pellet extruder design
[06:26:40] <[cube]> seems heavy
[06:26:49] <XXCoder> nono direct from pellet to print
[06:26:52] <XXCoder> no strand
[06:26:53] <[cube]> you'd need to have the extruder stationary
[06:26:58] <Praesmeodymium> http://richrap.blogspot.com/2014/12/no-more-filament-quest-for-universal.html
[06:26:58] <[cube]> and move the z axis down
[06:27:17] <Praesmeodymium> thats a pellet to print
[06:27:45] <[cube]> i feel like it would be slow
[06:28:34] <Praesmeodymium> at this point I would consider it a crime to maim a jhead like that
[06:28:45] <XXCoder> interesting
[06:29:11] <Praesmeodymium> the mfg of that hotend quit last week cant compete with repraps love for 7$hotends
[06:29:28] <XXCoder> I guess hotheads wear down
[06:29:35] -!- MattyMatt has quit [Ping timeout: 264 seconds]
[06:29:43] <Praesmeodymium> depends on what ya run through em
[06:29:55] <Praesmeodymium> and what they are made of
[06:30:04] <XXCoder> pla and abs?
[06:30:09] <Praesmeodymium> carbon fiber filaments will eat a hotend
[06:30:28] <[cube]> the merlin i've got uses airbrush nozzles for the nozzle
[06:30:31] <[cube]> its pretty neat
[06:30:45] <Praesmeodymium> glow in the dark is abrasive too
[06:30:52] <[cube]> i ahve one for 0.2mm that i havent tried yet
[06:31:14] <XXCoder> t-glase Filament is.. interesting
[06:31:46] <[cube]> is...expensive... :P
[06:32:02] <XXCoder> 34 for one rell
[06:32:04] <XXCoder> reel
[06:32:31] <XXCoder> bit more $10 more than other plastics
[06:32:46] <XXCoder> Praesmeodymium: weird that glow in ark is abusive
[06:32:53] <XXCoder> some abustive paracles inside?
[06:33:03] <Praesmeodymium> strontium aluminate
[06:33:40] <XXCoder> interesting
[06:33:52] <XXCoder> glow in dark lightbulb :D
[06:36:17] -!- arlekin has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[06:36:46] <XXCoder> laybrick is interesting
[06:36:48] <XXCoder> stone stuff
[06:36:52] <XXCoder> wonder how tough it is
[06:37:59] <XXCoder> graphete abs
[06:38:13] <XXCoder> http://www.filabot.com/collections/filament
[06:38:52] <XXCoder> it says pla is sealed to keep wetness away
[06:39:03] <XXCoder> if I print do i need to seal it somehow?
[06:39:07] <XXCoder> or is it now "cooked"
[06:39:16] <Praesmeodymium> abs has much more of a problem, with moisture than pla
[06:39:48] <Praesmeodymium> generally pla doesnt need storage unless you live somwhere hot and humid
[06:39:50] <XXCoder> but lego dont fall apart with water? I know I played with em in water when OI was young.
[06:40:11] <[cube]> abs is water resistant, no?
[06:40:17] <Praesmeodymium> no they dont but they can absorb like 3% water which turns to steam when trying to print
[06:40:26] <XXCoder> hell I even washed abs lego in water in rare cases it need it
[06:40:29] <XXCoder> ahh
[06:40:39] <[cube]> pla will hold liquid right
[06:40:48] <Praesmeodymium> it will
[06:41:01] <[cube]> i tried to make an oiling valve with pla...
[06:41:03] <[cube]> thick heavy oil
[06:41:09] <[cube]> it seeped righ tout :P
[06:41:13] <Praesmeodymium> 3d printed is a poor solution to watertight for a lot of reasons
[06:41:23] <[cube]> at least with abs you can acetone seal
[06:41:50] <XXCoder> wood you buy this http://www.filabot.com/collections/filament/products/laywoo-d3
[06:42:05] <Praesmeodymium> I can print a single wll vase thats watertight, it depends on a lot of things including printer tuning
[06:43:18] <XXCoder> wonder if dual head worth it
[06:43:18] <[cube]> that would be neat
[06:43:27] <Praesmeodymium> I couldnt bring myself to pay 152$ a kilo for filament
[06:43:46] <[cube]> yikes
[06:43:53] <Praesmeodymium> dual head is like 4times harder, get one going well first
[06:43:53] <XXCoder> Praesmeodymium: ever tried dual head?
[06:43:54] <[cube]> better off carving the damn thing out of wood lol
[06:44:05] <XXCoder> [cube]: or... cnc router lol
[06:44:12] <XXCoder> sure it cant do some tasks but yeah
[06:44:28] <[cube]> can your router do light metal?
[06:44:37] <XXCoder> not sure
[06:45:01] <XXCoder> probably not with its current spindle 27000 rpm cant change
[06:45:21] <Praesmeodymium> what ya mean this dremel cant router steel
[06:45:31] <XXCoder> its not dermel
[06:45:48] <Praesmeodymium> I'm sure yours isnt but thats what I could afford lol
[06:45:50] <XXCoder> its a grinder tool
[06:46:13] <XXCoder> not too great but good for now. I can make 53mm mounts so I can use real spindle
[06:46:23] <XXCoder> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EC5KOa-koTg
[06:46:26] <XXCoder> interesting
[06:46:43] <[cube]> hah
[06:46:45] <XXCoder> yeeesh it also has woman torso. so many nerds I suppose
[06:46:46] <[cube]> i made that wrench
[06:46:52] <XXCoder> [cube]: look at next one
[06:46:57] <XXCoder> one before woman torso
[06:47:33] <Praesmeodymium> that is a well tuned printer
[06:47:39] <[cube]> nice bewbs
[06:47:55] <XXCoder> sure but why do everyone print it
[06:48:06] <XXCoder> dont they have girlfriends
[06:48:19] <[cube]> mine dumped me becaus ei spent too much time on printer
[06:48:20] <Praesmeodymium> it makes your printer look good even though a shit printer can do it
[06:48:27] <[cube]> and not enough time playing scrabbble or some dumb shit
[06:48:49] <XXCoder> no more dilios for your girlfriend then
[06:49:00] <[cube]> haha
[06:49:09] <[cube]> that gimble prit is insane
[06:49:17] <XXCoder> exactly
[06:49:18] <Praesmeodymium> you can get a inaccurate xy it has no retracts so its as simple as it gets for the extruder
[06:49:36] <[cube]> this is my wrench
[06:49:38] <[cube]> http://i.imgur.com/H0HaASd.jpg
[06:49:39] <Praesmeodymium> I have one of those
[06:49:41] <[cube]> and my printer is shitty imo
[06:49:43] <Praesmeodymium> the gimbles
[06:49:49] <[cube]> nice
[06:49:55] <XXCoder> that works
[06:50:00] <XXCoder> how strong is it?
[06:50:04] <Praesmeodymium> did them before I got the heated bed
[06:50:06] <[cube]> the wrench?
[06:50:08] <XXCoder> can it do regular rusted in bolts lol
[06:50:18] <[cube]> heh maybe
[06:50:24] <[cube]> havent really tried
[06:50:35] <[cube]> the screw mechanism would break for sure
[06:51:00] <Praesmeodymium> http://imgur.com/UUaCtRS
[06:51:15] <[cube]> 0.1mm layers....ya how long did that take lol
[06:51:16] <XXCoder> how smooth was it
[06:51:17] <Praesmeodymium> not quite as clean as his prints
[06:51:47] <[cube]> not bad, P
[06:51:54] <Praesmeodymium> hmm 2 hours iirc
[06:52:17] <Praesmeodymium> but those are 100% ifill as well it was a test
[06:52:23] <[cube]> ah
[06:52:59] <XXCoder> yet another satan on that thread. or maybe same one
[06:53:43] <XXCoder> wondering though
[06:53:46] <XXCoder> is it paintable
[06:53:55] <Praesmeodymium> abs is
[06:54:22] <Praesmeodymium> pla is amazingly resiliant to chemicals and will take paint with some primer
[06:54:31] <XXCoder> cool
[06:54:44] <XXCoder> im sure you heard of acetone vapor smoothing
[06:54:47] <[cube]> i painted an abs rooster once
[06:54:51] <Praesmeodymium> yup
[06:55:00] <XXCoder> man it was SHINY
[06:55:35] <Praesmeodymium> over in #reprap has found a chemical to smooth pla the same way, its ethyl acetate
[06:55:41] <Praesmeodymium> not quite as shiny
[06:55:49] <[cube]> hm neat
[06:55:52] <[cube]> easier to get?
[06:56:09] <Praesmeodymium> mek replacement its not that easy to find
[06:56:18] <XXCoder> I planned to paint abs by disolving it into acetone then painting it
[06:56:28] <Praesmeodymium> but much much much nicer than the other stuff for pla
[06:56:30] <XXCoder> but not sure what right mix so it colors part and not deform
[06:57:03] <Praesmeodymium> acrylic based paints I'm pretty sure paint right on
[06:57:16] <Praesmeodymium> get the d&d paints out
[06:57:18] <[cube]> https://thingiverse-production-new.s3.amazonaws.com/renders/0e/a4/a7/91/57/Rooster_2014.05.14_Painted_preview_featured.jpg
[06:57:29] <[cube]> thats my coq
[06:57:37] <Praesmeodymium> nice
[06:57:38] <XXCoder> interesting
[06:57:41] <[cube]> acrylic ya
[06:57:46] <[cube]> cheap, dollars tore stuff
[06:57:48] <[cube]> goes on great
[06:57:51] <[cube]> not even primed
[06:58:01] <XXCoder> acrylic paint is made from abd and acetone?
[06:58:03] <XXCoder> abs
[06:58:06] <[cube]> no...
[06:58:10] <[cube]> latex i believe
[06:58:11] <XXCoder> darn
[06:58:22] <XXCoder> been trying to figure how to paint using abs plastics
[06:58:34] <[cube]> why?
[06:58:55] <XXCoder> just idea of mine
[06:59:03] <XXCoder> abs on abs paint
[06:59:04] <[cube]> you could melt down the abs waste form prints into acetone
[06:59:06] <[cube]> make a paste
[06:59:09] <[cube]> then add pigment
[06:59:17] <[cube]> white abs would be ideal for that
[06:59:19] <XXCoder> I dont plan any pigment
[06:59:23] <Praesmeodymium> natural
[06:59:31] <XXCoder> using already colored abs
[06:59:32] <Praesmeodymium> white abs is gonna have TiO2
[06:59:32] <[cube]> yeah or natural
[06:59:47] <[cube]> ah
[07:00:07] <Praesmeodymium> and possibly some uv brighteners and a few others white and black are dirty colors
[07:00:16] <[cube]> lot of laquers will disolve in acetone too
[07:00:39] <[cube]> so you find a spray paint that dissolves well in acetone and add it to your abs goo
[07:01:29] <XXCoder> glad to know just strightforward dissolve abs in acetone and paint it would work
[07:01:35] <[cube]> ya
[07:01:36] <XXCoder> wonder whats ratio though
[07:01:42] <[cube]> people paint that on their print beds
[07:01:45] <[cube]> to help with stiking
[07:01:50] <[cube]> *sticking
[07:02:05] <[cube]> there's a saturation point
[07:02:15] <[cube]> i'd suggest just mix until you have a consistency you like
[07:03:00] <[cube]> ur probably better off buying liek an ABS plumbing pipe from lowes
[07:03:06] <[cube]> and a 4 gallon of acetone
[07:03:38] <XXCoder> sure but my idea I need to use existing so color matches exactly
[07:03:48] <[cube]> ah
[07:03:58] <[cube]> what the heck is this idea lol
[07:04:16] <XXCoder> private at this time
[07:04:20] <[cube]> k
[07:04:26] <XXCoder> what to do isnt though, very simple
[07:04:44] <XXCoder> dissable existing abs, paint some other plastic part with it and get matching color
[07:05:03] <[cube]> you'be be surprised how fast acetone will melt a part
[07:05:08] <[cube]> its eats at it like butter
[07:05:11] <[cube]> very quickly
[07:05:30] <[cube]> makes really nice chemical 'welds' though
[07:05:44] <XXCoder> cool :)

[07:07:16] <[cube]> it messes with the color
[07:07:21] <[cube]> not sure about all colors
[07:07:30] <[cube]> but i've tried it with black abs

[07:08:00] <[cube]> but its not like 'paint'

[07:16:50] <[cube]> burn it out in the same way
[07:17:13] <XXCoder> pla is completely renewable correct?

[07:33:42] <[cube]> that mindga pinched a loaf
[07:35:46] <XXCoder> chinese quality https://www.ez-robot.com/uploads/IMAG0142-635716872125452265.jpg
[07:36:35] <[cube]> hah
[07:36:54] <XXCoder> when i get mine I'm definitely checking all over so hard.
[07:37:03] <[cube]> prob be fine
[07:37:08] <[cube]> how much did you pay?
[07:37:21] <XXCoder> actually so far I read all has problems, most minor and few major
[07:37:23] <XXCoder> $161
[07:37:28] <XXCoder> 90$ off sale
[07:37:38] <XXCoder> er 90%
[07:37:39] <[cube]> ah you went for that scam listing :x
[07:37:50] <XXCoder> probably scam yeah but lets see
[07:37:52] <Praesmeodymium> http://www.machinablewax.com/product.php?product=52
[07:38:09] <[cube]> geez
[07:38:14] <[cube]> ridiculous
[07:38:27] <XXCoder> expensive.
[07:38:47] <XXCoder> I would rather make ABS mold then cast wax in it
[07:38:54] <XXCoder> vastloy cheaper. and many uses.
[07:39:44] <ganzuul_> http://www.instructables.com/id/Machinable-Wax/
[07:40:26] <[cube]> i knew a guy who made a couple blocks of that
[07:40:33] <[cube]> using plastic bags
[07:40:41] <[cube]> almost burned down his porch :P
[07:40:50] <[cube]> need to know the flash point of wax
[07:40:52] <XXCoder> 300 degree that would melt wax
[07:40:56] <XXCoder> er abs
[07:41:30] <Praesmeodymium> i only know C for printer stuff
[07:41:42] <XXCoder> actually abs are 220C not f
[07:41:45] <Praesmeodymium> abs will melt as low as 180
[07:41:54] <XXCoder> 148C for wax
[07:42:04] <[cube]> pretty low
[07:42:06] <Praesmeodymium> but extrusion temp is much higher
[07:42:12] -!- b_b has quit [Changing host]
[07:42:33] <XXCoder> is instructable still bad with ads? I use noscript so cant tell lol
[07:42:42] <[cube]> its not bad
[07:43:53] <Praesmeodymium> I ownder if pla would work
[07:44:32] <XXCoder> not sure whats good termal seperation needed to keep mold intact while holding hot stuff inside
[07:44:50] <ganzuul_> well, calling it Paraffin instead of wax will help with finding out the flash point...
[07:44:50] <XXCoder> I know nobody can cast tungein because of its amazing strength
[07:44:53] <ganzuul_> :p
[07:45:04] <XXCoder> he adds plastic bags into it
[07:45:17] <XXCoder> so its more solid and machinable
[07:45:58] <[cube]> P: PLA is castable
[07:46:03] <[cube]> you need to burn it out good first tho
[07:46:07] <[cube]> before pouring
[07:46:30] <[cube]> need to use investment plaster
[07:46:35] <[cube]> i assume sand wouldnt work
[07:47:07] <Praesmeodymium> yeah hackaday had a pla in the microwave
[07:47:22] <[cube]> might work if you vacuum cast it
[07:47:25] <Praesmeodymium> her trick was a silicon carbide slip
[07:47:31] <[cube]> link?
[07:47:58] <Praesmeodymium> http://hackaday.com/2014/08/20/lost-pla-casting-with-a-little-help-from-your-microwave/

[09:35:17] <XXCoder> both was quite hard to lift
[09:35:51] <Wolf_> need to work out more :P
[09:36:03] <Praesmeodymium> totally depends its just part of how they change prices, most things are around the same price, and shipping out of china for many things is subsidized by the government
[09:36:30] <XXCoder> theres something wrong with my musicles Wolf_ it cramps wout exercise, but exercise makes it MUCH worse.

[10:00:34] <Contract_Pilot> The VR in them can be swapped to a TL783C add a bias and you can run up to 80V
[10:00:54] <Contract_Pilot> May have to change the TIP also
[10:02:01] <Contract_Pilot> MB450A 4.2A driver is what i was after.
[10:02:17] <Contract_Pilot> 50V max

[10:03:58] <XXCoder> or just use screws
[10:04:15] <XXCoder> bah I hate nonstandard stuff
[10:04:24] <XXCoder> like my 43mm clamp and now grooves jeez
[10:04:38] <Contract_Pilot> buy a T slot cutter re cut standard
[10:05:01] <Wolf_> extrude, can’t do that
[10:05:22] <Contract_Pilot> So the t nuts you orderd not right?
[10:05:29] <XXCoder> I didnt order any yet
[10:05:54] <Contract_Pilot> Well have a mill make some
[10:06:04] <Wolf_> my t-nuts haven’t shipped yet
[10:06:05] <Contract_Pilot> aliminum will work
[10:06:09] <XXCoder> no tnuts
[10:06:23] <XXCoder> no mill either as I own only cnc router
[10:06:44] <Contract_Pilot> Make wood ones with thread serts
[10:07:33] <Contract_Pilot> clamp come aluminum and mill with the router
[10:07:38] <Contract_Pilot> some
[10:08:02] <Contract_Pilot> Simple T
[10:08:05] <Wolf_> or just get some econo-t nuts from 8020
[10:08:08] <XXCoder> there is very cheap t nuts
[10:08:16] <XXCoder> 100 for 3 bucks and so on
[10:08:44] <XXCoder> but none of em has specs so I cant figure if it fits or not
[10:09:02] <Contract_Pilot> I think i am going to take a walk and see if that cat has a collar
[10:09:32] <Contract_Pilot> at least a tag so owner will not be wondering.
[10:10:27] <malcom2073> Contract_Pilot: You get one of those cheap chinese printers?
[10:10:59] <Contract_Pilot> Malcom, nope
[10:13:57] <malcom2073> Heh alright
[10:15:58] <Contract_Pilot> China LPT bob yes
[10:16:22] <XXCoder> hey malcom2073
[10:16:26] <Contract_Pilot> 2.5 more weeks till mesa has stock
[10:16:37] <malcom2073> Hey XXCoder, still awaiting shipment :P
[10:16:43] <XXCoder> same
[10:17:11] <XXCoder> also trying to figure what would work as clamp set for my machine
[10:17:19] <XXCoder> its fgrooves seems to be... unique.
[10:17:51] <malcom2073> Heh, metric for some reason maybe?
[10:18:10] <XXCoder> 7.5mm groove and inside bigger slot is 13.5 mm
[10:18:28] <malcom2073> Hmm
[10:18:58] <malcom2073> That's clearance for a 1/2" nut
[10:19:15] <malcom2073> But not a 5/16 nut
[10:19:16] <malcom2073> erm
[10:19:17] <malcom2073> 5/16 bolt
[10:23:28] <XXCoder> so slot would fit 1/2 nut but not fit 5/16 bolt it would need?
[10:25:07] <Contract_Pilot> make them from wood use a threaded flanged insert cut form aluminum

[11:46:07] <XXCoder> theres no stuffing magic smoke back in

[11:46:32] <Tom_itx> yeah you can do quite a bit with that i suppose
[11:46:47] <Wolf_> maybe feed it 36v and hook one of my other servos to it
[11:47:02] <Wolf_> just to give it something to spin
[11:47:58] <Wolf_> there is a 10 pin header on the board that I’m wondering what it does

[14:01:31] <Roguish> ???
[14:01:56] <aventtini> yep
[14:03:14] <Roguish> ok. so, 1 of your's works good? and the other does not work? maybe communication errror?
[14:03:33] <aventtini> no its same
[14:03:55] <aventtini> i got out te worki g one to test the new machine
[14:04:05] <aventtini> no its setup
[14:04:14] <Roguish> which linuxcnc version? 2.6 or 2.7 or master?
[14:05:20] <aventtini> 2.6.10
[14:06:12] <Roguish> ok, thanks for the info. hope you get them working.
[14:06:39] <aventtini> it will
[14:06:59] <aventtini> in gerneral is a good pg for 70$

[14:41:44] <os1r1s> skunkworks: I've got a G540 hooked up to a 5i25 now. I don't have enough inputs to add a encoder, but I have an extra lpt port. I was going to try and hook the amt-102 up directly to it
[14:42:29] <skunkworks> os1r1s, the 5i25 actually has 2 ports - are you using both?
[14:42:33] <ssi> os1r1s: you'd be better off getting a breakout for the second port on the 5i25 and using that
[14:42:46] <os1r1s> skunkworks: Yeah. I am using the other port for a diff machine
[14:42:56] <skunkworks> oh
[14:43:27] <skunkworks> what is the encoder used for?
[14:43:46] <os1r1s> spindle speed/movement. This is a lathe, so I want to use index + A
[14:45:38] <aventtini> any of you with mmpg pandant
[14:46:26] <aventtini> if it has a index wire out you can use it
[14:46:43] <os1r1s> aventtini: I have the XHC-HB04
[14:47:09] <aventtini> do you know you to configure it
[14:47:14] <pcw_home> AMT102s have settable resolution so should work fine for software reading via LPT (at low res)
[14:47:24] <aventtini> i have tested all day
[14:47:34] <skunkworks> os1r1s, you really would want that to be hardware counted... Could you move some other i/o (that doesn't have to be fast) to the printer port? or buy a mesa daughter board and get a ton more i/o
[14:47:39] <aventtini> nos success on this verion for me
[14:47:43] <os1r1s> pcw_home: Thing 500 ppr is too high?
[14:48:14] <pcw_home> at some RPM is is :-)
[14:48:34] <os1r1s> I won't go above 2800
[14:48:45] <pcw_home> no way with PP
[14:48:49] <os1r1s> Ok
[14:49:00] <aventtini> to much
[14:49:07] <os1r1s> I can move the limit switches off the G540 and directly to the PP
[14:49:12] <os1r1s> Would that work?
[14:49:18] <pcw_home> either lower resolution or limit max speed
[14:49:22] <ssi> yea limits on pp is fine
[14:49:26] <pcw_home> sure
[14:50:11] <os1r1s> pcw_home: Do you know if the G540 buffers in any way that would create a problem?
[14:50:15] <pcw_home> on the other hand you may not need the encoder to work at 2800 RPM if its for ridgid tapping/ threading
[14:50:39] <pcw_home> they may be slow, dont know
[14:51:31] <os1r1s> pcw_home: This is for threading
[14:52:22] <aventtini> pcw ca you help me with the xhc04, i got one machine working whit same pandant secont dot want
[14:54:19] <pcw_home> I dont know anything about USB connected devices (I stay away from them as much as possible)
[14:54:27] <skunkworks> aventtini, the forum would probably be a better place to ask.

[14:56:46] <_abc_> Any ideas on how to get hold of the nice people who made the debian linuxcnc release? It appears I installed it correctly and then it was hosed by the 1st aptitude update. Probably packages not pinned and such.
[14:57:11] <aventtini> o success i see in hallmetr but no move
[14:57:29] <cradek> _abc_: describe hosed please?

[14:59:23] <_abc_> cradek: probe_parport.ko vanished, although I do not remember updating the kernel, and a component needed by stepconf, called axisu.glade vanished. Both were in locate db after the update so I know they were there. Result: probe input not usable in linuxcnc and stepconf error on startup and aborts with missing file.
[15:00:11] <_abc_> The live dvd I used for install has rtai kernels 3.2 on it, the system ended up with 3.4 kernels. It worked fine for a few days then when I upgraded it...
[15:00:13] <cradek> you are using the linuxcnc packages? did you change major versions by changing sources?
[15:00:23] <_abc_> No souces.list editing at all
[15:00:24] -!- Audioburn has quit [Ping timeout: 250 seconds]
[15:01:02] <cradek> probe_parport was removed between major versions. maybe you have an old config you have not updated?
[15:01:08] <_abc_> It was the way the install left it. Wait wait. synaptic asked me to use a better mirror at some point. Could that be it? The change date on sources.list is of today when the problem occurred
[15:01:23] <_abc_> cradek: the config is new generated by stepconf after install.
[15:01:30] <_abc_> After a simple table of pins to wire,
[15:01:32] <_abc_> on paper
[15:01:43] il is now known as Audiowork
[15:02:30] <cradek> possibly you are seeing stepconf bugs
[15:02:35] <cradek> what version are you running now?
[15:02:49] <_abc_> Hm? I am not at the machine now. It said axis 2.8 I think iirc
[15:03:17] <cradek> the latest releases are 2.6.10 and 2.7.0
[15:03:19] <_abc_> I will reinstall from scratch, it is a new install, no bog deal, I was working on other hw aspects in between
[15:03:40] <_abc_> Hmm. So maybe I do not remember well? 2.6.8 ? Could be?
[15:03:47] <cradek> it's really not clear to me what all you have done and what error you are seeing
[15:03:58] <_abc_> I do not fully understand where the install dvd keeps the list of things to install
[15:04:13] <cradek> well let me summarize
[15:04:20] <_abc_> cradek: I will be able to backtrack after a fresh install followed by step by step upgrade.
[15:04:26] <cradek> ok
[15:04:33] <_abc_> Also I will report numbers etc tomorrow about this time or later
[15:04:54] <_abc_> I just did not pay much attention to things, leaving them on autopilot.
[15:04:55] <cradek> after the install from our image, upgrade and dist-upgrade via apt should not ever break anything
[15:05:19] <cradek> you can change between major versions by editing sources
[15:05:23] <_abc_> synaptic changed the sources.list for sure, the modify date coincides with when I used it, then I went to aptitude.
[15:05:38] <cradek> changing between major versions of linuxcnc may require you to make changes to your old configs
[15:05:52] <cradek> see the docs for these instructions
[15:05:55] <_abc_> I realize that, I have some old old configs and I only use them to glean pin numbers and such.
[15:06:09] <_abc_> I usually generate a new one using stepconf then edit it manually
[15:06:33] <_abc_> Is the probe_parport.ko gone gone? Please point me at a replacement module/strategy/howto?
[15:07:35] <cradek> http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/html/getting-started/updating-linuxcnc.html#_parallel_port
[15:08:26] <_abc_> Ah! Thanks, usual searches failed to bring that up at all this morning.
[15:09:03] <_abc_> So simply removing load parport_probe is enough to make it work?
[15:09:14] <cradek> please read all the words there :-)
[15:09:25] -!- chris_99 has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[15:09:48] <_abc_> Rephrased: who handles the probe keywords now? The paragraph is terse...
[15:10:05] <_abc_> Example of probe config new style please? Hal file or doc?
[15:10:37] <_abc_> So my understanding would be, stepconf was not upgraded or partially upgraded too?
[15:11:14] <cradek> if stepconf makes broken configs that's a stepconf bug
[15:11:33] <_abc_> Also one very bad thing: is there a way to make Axis NOT shut off the spindle relay when the spindle rpm slider goes to 0? It should not go to 0 anyway, should stop at MIN_SPINDLE_?
[15:11:39] <_abc_> cradek: okay
[15:12:30] <cradek> I don't know about the spindle thing without trying it, sorry
[15:12:38] <_abc_> I set MIN_SPINDLE_OVERRIDE = 0.5 to MIN_SPINDLE_OVERRIDE = 1.0 and so on, no change, the spindle override slider goes to 0 when left, and shuts off the spindle relay.
[15:12:59] <_abc_> Iow Axis does not interpret the MIN_SPINDLE_OVERRIDE at all.
[15:14:19] <_abc_> I tried to tinker with the hal settings (nets) but was unable to make it stop doing that. Don't know if it's 2 separate bugs or one. In any case, taking the speed override to 0 must NOT shut off the spindle relay (the spindle on button remains on as set and moving the slider right again closes the relay again)

[15:53:20] <MrSunshine> hmm anyone know of a program that i can import gcode files into and tile them up for a sheet ?
[15:53:46] <MrSunshine> fusion 360 doesnt realy make it easy to do alot of parts at the same tim e:/
[15:54:12] <ssi> MrSunshine: maybe something like sheetcam, but I dunno if it can start with already processed gcode
[15:54:48] <ssi> a method that I've used in the past is to add a jog and a touchoff to the end of my program
[15:54:51] <MrSunshine> i use vectric for 2d stuff, works nice ..but got alot of 3d contours and stuff on these parts and aspire doesnt do that realy well with the angles that are on it :/
[15:55:00] <ssi> so after cutting a part, the tool is positioned to start running the program again on a new section of sheet
[15:55:16] <archivist> all parts the same? use linuxcnc and place one in a subroutine
[15:55:19] <MrSunshine> yeah, but then i need to plan it up on the sheet and stuff
[15:55:23] <MrSunshine> archivist: nop
[15:55:26] <MrSunshine> 5 different parts
[15:55:44] <MrSunshine> and i need to rotate them etc to make the most use of the sheet
[15:56:54] <archivist> put the 5 parts on one cad file before you ever put it in the cam file
[15:58:00] <MrSunshine> thing is that its a 3d model .. i guess i could align the parts etc to the planes and stuff, alot of fiddling to do to get it right .. but i guess its doable =)
[15:58:10] <os1r1s> pcw_home: Do I need to change the .bit file to make the mesa card read the encoder?
[16:00:35] <pcw_home> I dont think so, I think the default G540 config has an encoder on 3 inputs
[16:01:58] <pcw_home> take a look at g540x2.pin
[16:05:34] <os1r1s> pcw_home: So I would use the A/B/Index Quad input for the encoder

[16:45:26] <ssi> I'm a notorious jack of all trades
[16:45:27] <archivist> I am trying too
[16:45:28] <_abc_> jacking off in all trades
[16:45:38] <aventtini3> i comment out the problem . I did test with the sample files but linuxcnc wont start
[16:45:40] <ganzuul> :p
[16:45:41] <_abc_> ssi: what do you do with the furnace normally? When not playing?
[16:45:47] <ssi> but I have attained what I consider to be mastery of some things
[16:45:51] <aventtini3> no error or someting
[16:45:56] <ssi> _abc_: the furnace? nothing yet
[16:46:01] <ssi> I'm trying to get set up to do some aluminum casting
[16:46:21] <_abc_> ssi: so you make mold positives with linuxcnc then sand & investment?
[16:46:21] * ganzuul is pretty good with linux stuff by now
[16:46:22] <archivist> aventtini, you dont give use anything to go on to help
[16:46:49] <ssi> _abc_: there's a few ways to go about it... I'll probably do some patternmaking by hand in wood
[16:46:59] <_abc_> uhh. How do you remove the wood?
[16:47:02] -!- patrickarlt has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[16:47:10] <ganzuul> FIRE
[16:47:16] <_abc_> I read there is a new silicone or clay based mold material which can take the heat of Al.
[16:47:18] <aventtini3> i can give you access to my machine
[16:47:19] <ssi> traditional casting, you use a split flask and a split pattern
[16:47:26] <_abc_> Can take 700C briefly.
[16:47:28] <ssi> open up the flask and remove the pattern
[16:47:42] <ssi> I also intend to play with lost-PLA casting, and 3d print the plugs
[16:47:44] <aventtini3> i conected like in the wiki
[16:47:55] <_abc_> ssi: You you reuse the flask? Or is it sand + water glass 'green' mold.
[16:47:58] <aventtini3> it starts whit a error on jogs and scales
[16:48:07] <archivist> aventtini, you need to learn diagnosis, follow signals, to where they stop, decide where to connect etc
[16:48:07] <ssi> it's all reusable
[16:48:15] <aventtini3> i coment out them test some configurations no luck
[16:48:16] <ssi> cores get made out of sand+waterglass
[16:48:27] <_abc_> Cores?!
[16:48:30] <ssi> but the flask is the reusable box, and the mold is made in the flask out of greensand, which is reusable
[16:48:35] <aventtini3> i usinv v06 for it and tested whit v3
[16:48:41] <ssi> yeah you need a core to make a hollow part
[16:48:41] <_abc_> Ah okay so the flask is the holder.
[16:48:49] <ssi> there's a billion videos on casting on youtube
[16:48:53] <ssi> want me to point you to one?
[16:48:57] <_abc_> Yeah terminology problems. I am not a native English speaker.
[16:49:04] <aventtini3> i did not understand the conection of the halui
[16:49:23] <_abc_> No, I am very familiar with lost wax and similar techniques. Nearly got asthma from that.
[16:49:32] <aventtini3> i need to connect my halui specific pins for jog in ini
[16:50:11] <ssi> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zPgD9hFIhSA
[16:50:17] <ssi> there's a good one of doing a split pattern casting with a core

[16:51:24] <aventtini3> it says pin not connected in the errors

[16:51:58] <aventtini3> i know the pins that work because i see them in meter
[16:52:15] <aventtini3> in the ini file ?
[16:52:31] <archivist> hal file
[16:52:43] <_abc_> Say, does one not use a special sand binder for Al casting molds? Since water glass is corrosive to Al?
[16:52:51] <archivist> or postgui hal
[16:52:56] <aventtini3> of the machine or the pandent ?
[16:53:02] <archivist> http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Jogging_With_Buttons_On_A_Pendant
[16:53:02] <aventtini3> i have 2 files
[16:54:19] <aventtini3> ok so i need to get the actual pin in the main hal file and convert it to halui
[16:54:30] <_abc_> cradek: does the live system install properly in a vm? I assume the rtai and a vm will not get along easily, but I need to try this.
[16:54:50] <ssi> _abc_: there's two types of sand most people use, greensand is sand with bentonite clay and water, and oil-bonded sand like petrobond is sand with bentone and oil
[16:54:58] <ssi> the waterglass is mostly only used for cores
[16:55:02] <_abc_> I see
[16:55:11] <ssi> and I haven't heard anyone talk about corrosion issues
[16:55:22] <_abc_> They never say water glass they say sodium silicate in the ingredient list.
[16:55:28] <_abc_> And they sometimes say 'not ok for Al'
[16:55:35] <cradek> _abc_: yeah it works fine, but of course does not give realtime performance as you say
[16:56:07] <_abc_> cradek: This is not a realtime problem it is a setup/config problem. I plan to troubleshoot the update process step by step in a vm and hope to nail it.
[16:56:09] <ganzuul> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Mx1-o1_MWo
[16:56:25] <_abc_> Pretty sure synaptic messed up sources.list before I used aptitude with the messed up list
[16:56:26] <cradek> _abc_: super
[16:56:31] <ganzuul> Homemade sodium silicate (water glass)
[16:56:34] <_abc_> But I need to know. Drives me nuts.
[16:56:56] <_abc_> cradek: So again: the probing stuff should work, pin defs etc, excepting for the module load (not needed?)
[16:57:14] <cradek> probing?
[16:57:24] <_abc_> probe pin probe script G38.n
[16:57:39] <cradek> wait
[16:58:18] <cradek> you are confusing probe_parport (massage PnP parallel ports somehow, now unneeded) with probing (poke a workpiece with a switch under cnc control using G38.x gcodes)
[16:58:25] <cradek> those are totally unrelated
[17:00:01] <_abc_> cradek: how unrelated? The probe is connected to a parport pin
[17:00:18] <cradek> a probe may be connected to any kind of realtime input
[17:00:22] <_abc_> Oh wait. The coin dropped
[17:00:42] <cradek> bbl, lunch
[17:00:42] <_abc_> probe_parport is just a module to probe ports, as in 0x378 etc, right?

[17:59:16] <enleth> Faced with a bent pridgeport spindle, what would you do, buy a used or "new" one off ebay or make a drawing and order a new one made locally?

[17:59:33] <ssi> enleth: do you have an idea what it would cost to have one made?
[18:00:41] <_abc_> Let's ask how the spindle was bent...
[18:00:57] <_abc_> Speaking of, what diy stall detectors do people make ?
[18:01:01] <enleth> ssi: where I live - possibly less than $700 it usually takes to buy a used but well preserved spindle in the US and ship it to Europe
[18:01:25] <ssi> enleth: yeah that makes a big difference
[18:01:29] <_abc_> Hmm? Machine stall detectors?
[18:01:37] -!- amiri has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds]
[18:01:45] <enleth> ssi: I have the rigid ram model that takes longer spindles, relatively rare
[18:01:47] <ssi> _abc_: stepper or servo?
[18:02:08] <ssi> enleth: is there any chance of getting an original factory print of the part?
[18:02:14] <_abc_> ssi: Both? Either? What does one do to detect mechanical stall
[18:02:14] <ssi> I'd just be worried about not blueprinting it accurately
[18:02:28] <enleth> ssi: I guess not.
[18:02:35] <_abc_> Strain gauges on spindle carrier arm?
[18:02:36] <enleth> yeah.
[18:02:47] <ssi> _abc_: when steppers stall, you lose position. some form of positional feedback can give you an indication of stall
[18:03:09] <ssi> when servos stall, current goes up dramatically, and if they stall enough to violate follow limits, you'll get a machine fault
[18:03:20] <enleth> it would suck to pay big buck for a shiny new spindle that doesn't work.
[18:03:20] <ssi> but you can have current monitoring for axis load meters
[18:03:24] <_abc_> ssi: I mean, things like vfd spindle stalled, mill ate itself into part and stalled and the like.
[18:04:00] <ssi> _abc_: for spindle, if you've got spindle feedback, you can close the loop on the spindle and set it up to fault if it can't maintain rpm
[18:04:09] <ssi> or again, current monitoring for spindle load indications
[18:04:19] <ssi> a lot of vfds have that option

[18:44:57] <_abc_> cradek: Do you have a hunch where to look inside axis concerning the spindle override slider? The problem where pulled to left goes to zero, and shuts off spindle relay?

[18:47:12] <_abc_> (and I found the missin axisu.glade etc files in the git but why did they vanish from my system?!)
[18:47:19] <_abc_> will elucidate this tomorrow.
[18:47:27] <_abc_> Thanks for now, will be back.
[18:47:29] <enleth> ssi: to be honest, when I think about making an accurate spindle drawing, I come to a conclusion that it can't be *that* difficult with a proper set of accurate micrometers. But every time I start to think that something I've never done before (in this case, blueprinting precision machine spindles) is easy, I take it as a warning that there must be some kind of difficulty that I'm not even aware of. Does
[18:47:35] <enleth> that ring any bells?
[18:48:21] <enleth> I mean, I can't come up with any gotchas other than "measure things correctly, duh"
[18:48:29] <cradek> stepconf only handles at most XYZA so I don't know what you mean by axisu.glade
[18:48:31] <enleth> But there must be some.
[18:48:34] <_abc_> enleth: I don't know why you are not speccing the part number. Spindle axles are rather specially alloyed and tempered afaik. Or were 25 years ago when I last had to do with one.
[18:48:47] <cradek> I'd be interested in a real bug report (do you get an error, what is it, when you do what)
[18:49:05] <enleth> _abc_: was that a polite "you're fucking insane if you want to make one"?
[18:49:09] <_abc_> cradek: stepconf wants to load axisu.glade and axisu.glade is present in stepconf from recent git pull.
[18:49:10] <cradek> (the sourceforge tracker is the place to put nontrivial bug reports)
[18:49:14] <cradek> when you do what?
[18:49:20] <_abc_> enleth: no, but expect going uphill both ways
[18:49:32] <_abc_> cradek: When I start stepconf
[18:49:33] <cradek> stepconf runs for me in 2.7.0
[18:49:49] <cradek> recent git pull of what?
[18:49:57] <_abc_> It ran for me fine in the deb wheezy install until this morning when I did the stupid update
[18:50:10] <cradek> I don't know what update you are doing
[18:50:17] <_abc_> git clone git://git.linuxcnc.org/git/emc2.git emc2-dev
[18:50:35] <cradek> ok so you are building master branch
[18:50:39] <_abc_> the update I explained earlyer. synaptic fubard sources.list then aptitude used that
[18:50:40] <enleth> _abc_: what if I leave the actual manufacturing to a company that does machine spindles every day, just never did this particular type? I assume they'd handle all the metallurgy stuff ~correctly.
[18:50:40] <cradek> earlier you said you were using packages
[18:51:08] <_abc_> cradek: I am not building it, I pulled it to look at source and to see which files I am missing because I can't find the missing files in a manifest
[18:51:29] <_abc_> I might build it later. Right now I am not on that machine, I got the git source to look at it
[18:51:40] <cradek> brb
[18:51:50] <_abc_> enleth: sure, plus they will likely make suggestions.
[18:52:19] <_abc_> enleth: such as are you sure you have 3.171 inch i.d. bearings and more. I don't remember the bad parts from way back then
[18:52:38] -!- SpeedEvil has quit [Quit: No Ping reply in 180 seconds.]
[18:52:57] <enleth> The UK built b'ports have metric bearings, I think. That makes it a tad bit easier.

[18:55:46] <enleth> For now I just decided to screw it and make some chips, I measured the wobble, mounted a shit end mill and configured tool dia as actual diameter plus wobble
[18:55:50] <enleth> It's horrible but it works.
[19:01:50] <_abc_> Please don't take them off they have numbers stamped into the rims...
[19:02:10] <_abc_> The bearings
[19:02:29] -!- sumpfralle has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds]
[19:02:45] <_abc_> All I remember is, lathe spindle bearings have CRAZY and I mean CRAZY numbers on them
[19:02:57] <_abc_> Very likely custom made. Hope mills are easyer.
[19:03:27] <enleth> AFAIK it isn't a matter of not taking them off but rather, of putting them back on in the same orientation relative to the spindle and to each other
[19:03:36] <furrywolf> somehow the pressure switch on my air compressor no longer has hysterisis. it's very annoying. probably not good for the relay, either...
[19:04:29] <_abc_> enleth: also you are assuming they did not take damage when you bent it.
[19:05:00] <_abc_> furrywolf: there is a spring loaded thing which provides hysterezis. It snapped out of place or snapped in place.
[19:05:05] <enleth> _abc_: I got the machine with the spindle wobbly already
[19:05:23] <_abc_> enleth: was it very cheap? How much runout?
[19:05:29] <enleth> _abc_: and, yeah, I assume those bearings are shot too
[19:05:59] <cradek> _abc_: figured out that you were talking about stepconf being broken in master, and verified the breakage, and fixed it
[19:06:11] <enleth> _abc_: less than 3x scrap value, much less than combined value of just the motors, drive and some misc parts combined, so still a good deal
[19:06:14] <_abc_> cradek: really? now?
[19:06:52] <_abc_> enleth: in that case, profit.
[19:07:06] <enleth> _abc_: about $2000, ways in decent shape, axes work smooth, wiring in very good condition, and so on.

[19:17:07] <Sync> well, I'd buy one, I doubt getting one made with proper heat treat and all will be over $500
[19:21:10] <enleth> Sync: OK, I went to ebay to check and - lo and behold - someone is selling two CNC spindles for less than $400
[19:21:14] <enleth> That's unusual.
[19:21:17] <_abc_> enleth: .ro here
[19:21:32] <furrywolf> _abc_: unfortunately it's a sealed crimped switch, so replacement is the repair option.
[19:21:39] <enleth> _abc_: ah, so you're in about the same boat
[19:21:48] <_abc_> enleth: it's cheaper here I think ;)

[19:22:11] <_abc_> furrywolf: well, then... but I don't think you are right. Most can be popped, the lids that is
[19:22:30] <enleth> huh, one of those spindles is hollow.
[19:22:36] <_abc_> furrywolf: when popping the lid expect a spring to jump out. Do not lose it.
[19:22:50] <enleth> And the guy says $50 for an Erickson locknut
[19:23:01] <enleth> Kennametal wants $350 for a new one
[19:23:51] <furrywolf> _abc_: it's a shiny stainless+aluminum industrial switch.
[19:24:14] <_abc_> furrywolf: yes, and Dremels make them less shiny and more jagged
[19:24:20] <enleth> holy shit I want to buy that right now.

[19:27:32] <_abc_> ganzuul: probably not. Silver brazed or tin brazed is.
[19:28:17] <_abc_> Here they require Silver braze or solder for all water piping (copper) which is somehow going to go to people or animal (?) consumption.
[19:28:44] <ganzuul> _abc_: Tin brazing... you say. Hmm.
[19:28:47] <malcom2073> enleth: Yeah, it's looking like these printers were a scam, doesn't seem real
[19:28:54] <_abc_> Tin soldering more likely
[19:29:06] <ganzuul> Silver solder is too expensive.
[19:29:19] <_abc_> No it is not. For the job it does.

[19:29:47] <ganzuul> \o/

[20:09:21] <enleth> ganzuul: yeah, the seller allows global shipping, and that's exactly why they (as in the global shipping operator) will make sure that I pay VAT and import taxes
[20:10:37] <enleth> Every time I pay the import taxes, I hope one of those bureaucratic fuckwads will use my money to buy himself a snack and then choke to death on it.

[20:13:05] <enleth> Of course, the answer is "none, I wouldn't be buying internationally if it were available locally"

[20:40:04] <zeeshan|2> on the very right is
[20:40:07] <zeeshan|2> i thought it was built into the machine
[20:40:14] <zeeshan|2> the thing below the enclosure w/ the fans
[20:40:28] <zeeshan|2> the conveyor i knew about

[20:40:44] <rob_h> hydrolics on machine under cabnets by the looks
[20:40:48] <zeeshan|2> yes
[20:40:48] <rob_h> its not coolant system is it
[20:40:53] <zeeshan|2> oh youre right
[20:40:55] <rob_h> on end of trailer u talk abotu
[20:40:56] <zeeshan|2> it could be coolant
[20:40:57] <zeeshan|2> under the cabinet.
[20:40:59] <rob_h> filters and stuff
[20:41:00] <zeeshan|2> oh
[20:41:06] <zeeshan|2> that would make sense too
[20:41:09] <zeeshan|2> cause the reservoir is bigger
[20:41:13] <zeeshan|2> okay i should just scrap that
[20:41:16] <zeeshan|2> rather than trying to keep it here
[20:41:34] <rob_h> depends how that machine stores it coolant
[20:41:39] <rob_h> whats in the bed of the machine etc
[20:41:42] <Sync> yeah, I'd keep it
[20:41:47] <furrywolf> ... why the heck would you scrap the coolant system?
[20:41:53] <zeeshan|2> :P
[20:41:55] <zeeshan|2> get a more compact one
[20:41:58] <rob_h> some use it to have a bigger store out side machine, filter all chips out for turret feed
[20:42:20] <rob_h> etc etc.. like our matsura it has micron filters for coolant to keep chips out of the machine lines
[20:43:00] <rob_h> the convayer is a pain in ass we find in machines.. as everything gets stuck in them and under them all chips etc

[20:43:59] <furrywolf> bbl, errands
[20:44:16] <Sync> bar feed ftw
[20:44:25] <furrywolf> and, as I said, if his forklift is tipping, pile heavy stuff on the back of it. :P
[20:44:58] <Sync> that is not osha compliant
[20:45:16] <furrywolf> i.e. use your engine hoist to lift a ton or two of scrap metal onto it...

[21:59:42] <Tom_itx> the smaller stepper controller?
[21:59:59] <bobo> zeeshan|2 could the rigger have a place to temp put the lathe an allow you to sort out the parts net needed ? tell him he can have all the stuff you do not need for scrap
[22:00:24] <Contract_Pilot> The 50v driver MB450A on the inside it says M542 V2.0 possible Leadshine?
[22:01:12] <Contract_Pilot> Looks well Constructed.
[22:05:11] <Contract_Pilot> I only Orderd the 4.2A drivers.
[22:06:20] <malcom2073> Contract_Pilot: Could be a chinese clone of leadshine

[23:42:02] <zeeshan|2> pete i got fucked today
[23:42:10] <zeeshan|2> the guys forklift couldnt handle the weight
[23:42:12] <PetefromTn_> again?
[23:42:24] <zeeshan|2> bobo suggested this:
[23:42:25] <PetefromTn_> ;)
[23:42:25] <zeeshan|2> zeeshan|2 could the rigger have a place to temp put the lathe an allow you to sort out the parts net needed ? tell him he can have all the stuff you do not need for scrap
[23:43:03] <PetefromTn_> parts net?
[23:44:09] <PetefromTn_> did it not fit in your door?
[23:44:12] <zeeshan|2> no man
[23:44:15] <zeeshan|2> they couldnt get it off the truck
[23:44:18] <zeeshan|2> its on the truck still
[23:44:21] <PetefromTn_> LOL
[23:44:27] <zeeshan|2> and also i dont think its gonna clear my garage door
[23:44:31] <PetefromTn_> can you tarp it or something?
[23:44:33] <zeeshan|2> i need to diassemble some things to make it fit
[23:44:36] <zeeshan|2> yea they tarped it
[23:44:41] <PetefromTn_> ok
[23:44:44] <PetefromTn_> no biggie
[23:44:50] <zeeshan|2> lemme show you the prob man
[23:44:57] <zeeshan|2> http://i.imgur.com/HcdEYma.jpg
[23:45:00] <zeeshan|2> you see that over arm?
[23:45:03] <PetefromTn_> the problem is you overestimated your garage door LOL
[23:45:12] <zeeshan|2> it adds 6"
[23:45:16] <zeeshan|2> for no damn good reason
[23:45:22] <jdh> that's a pretty massive machine
[23:45:24] <Sync> get the zip wheel out
[23:45:27] <zeeshan|2> completely useless pos that could be replaced by a hand held
[23:45:31] <PetefromTn_> rip that bitch out of there ;)
[23:45:34] <zeeshan|2> im thinking of ripping out out
[23:45:37] <zeeshan|2> and also this:
[23:45:40] <malcom2073> Sold my southbend, woot!
[23:45:48] <Wolf_Mill> yay malcom2073
[23:45:55] <PetefromTn_> jdh I agree that is indeed a pretty massive machine LOL
[23:45:55] <zeeshan|2> http://i.imgur.com/HcdEYma.jpg
[23:45:58] <zeeshan|2> look at my shoe size
[23:46:00] <zeeshan|2> relative to that motor
[23:46:03] <zeeshan|2> im not running a 20 hp motor
[23:46:08] <malcom2073> $850, and I gotta deliver it, 4 miles from my house :-D
[23:46:15] <PetefromTn_> same picture
[23:46:21] <zeeshan|2> http://i.imgur.com/NnRMiAd.jpg
[23:46:22] <zeeshan|2> sorry
[23:46:34] <malcom2073> zeeshan|2: You get it unloaded?
[23:46:35] <zeeshan|2> then i was thinking of taking off all the electronic cabinets
[23:46:35] <Wolf_Mill> http://i.imgur.com/cbTjU5A.jpg I like it already... neeed moar parts
[23:46:37] <PetefromTn_> that's a huge bitch!
[23:46:52] <Sync> can't get 250kg off it so the forklift will manage it?
[23:47:33] <PetefromTn_> you definitely have your work cutout for you.
[23:47:45] <PetefromTn_> I am anxious to see how you get along with that monster
[23:47:59] <zeeshan|2> i just need it to fit the garage man
[23:48:01] <jdh> I want to see your house lights when you spin it up
[23:48:09] <PetefromTn_> if you can figure out a way to make it run on single phase like my cinci it will give me hope for a future turning center for me LOL
[23:48:12] <zeeshan|2> please help
[23:48:19] <zeeshan|2> http://i.imgur.com/zTy3sox.jpg
[23:48:20] <zeeshan|2> that over arm
[23:48:21] <PetefromTn_> how?
[23:48:21] <zeeshan|2> needs to go
[23:48:25] <zeeshan|2> i REALLY want your opinions
[23:48:28] <zeeshan|2> what the hell that top cover is for
[23:48:33] <zeeshan|2> to me it looks like its just a retarded cover
[23:48:35] <zeeshan|2> for this over arm
[23:48:38] <zeeshan|2> and has wires running under it
[23:48:40] <Sync> probably
[23:48:53] <PetefromTn_> I am sure it is just a wire chase
[23:49:05] <zeeshan|2> okay thank you
[23:49:07] <zeeshan|2> that makes me feel better
[23:49:14] <zeeshan|2> and can someone tell me
[23:49:15] <PetefromTn_> I would just carefully remove the wiring and then remove the housing.
[23:49:17] <zeeshan|2> WTF this thing is?
[23:49:20] <Sync> zeeshan|2: just build a carport in your driveway?
[23:49:21] <zeeshan|2> i didnt even know it was part of the machine
[23:49:23] <jdh> what's the red cylinder thing?
[23:49:25] <PetefromTn_> If you climb up there take some pics..
[23:49:26] <zeeshan|2> people are saying its a coolant pump
[23:49:32] <Sync> and have it stand outside :P
[23:49:34] <zeeshan|2> bottom left
[23:49:36] <zeeshan|2> red cylinder thing
[23:49:39] <zeeshan|2> WTF is that?
[23:49:49] <zeeshan|2> some hardcore coolant pump?
[23:49:52] <zeeshan|2> the red thing has a filter?
[23:49:55] <PetefromTn_> pic?
[23:49:55] <zeeshan|2> (ive seen that in machines before)
[23:50:00] <zeeshan|2> http://i.imgur.com/zTy3sox.jpg
[23:50:01] <zeeshan|2> bottom left
[23:50:07] <jdh> yeah, looks filter like
[23:50:34] <Sync> oh btw zeeshan|2 got muh deutsch autosport connectors
[23:50:37] <Sync> they are lovely
[23:50:47] <jdh> you need to rent some space with 3-phase
[23:50:52] <PetefromTn_> no clue but it does look like some sort of filter housing
[23:51:06] <zeeshan|2> Sync: fancy
[23:51:10] <PetefromTn_> does it go alongside the machine or does it stay where it is in the picture>
[23:51:19] <zeeshan|2> it just sits around the machine
[23:51:22] <zeeshan|2> pete here you can see:
[23:51:31] <zeeshan|2> http://i.imgur.com/YGGydhv.jpg
[23:51:45] <jdh> geez
[23:51:55] <zeeshan|2> all that shit on the right
[23:51:55] <zeeshan|2> i dont need
[23:52:01] <zeeshan|2> i can put a smaller coolant pump
[23:52:04] <zeeshan|2> i dont need this high pressure stuff
[23:52:10] <zeeshan|2> it'd be nice
[23:52:12] <zeeshan|2> but i dont have the space
[23:52:19] <Sync> put it outside
[23:52:23] <PetefromTn_> does it have thru tool coolant?
[23:52:28] <zeeshan|2> yea pete
[23:52:37] <PetefromTn_> you might want that then...
[23:52:45] <zeeshan|2> ill have to live without it man
[23:52:47] <zeeshan|2> i dont got the room
[23:52:48] <PetefromTn_> I am sure you can find some way to minimize it all
[23:52:55] <zeeshan|2> maybe i can buy a more compact unit later ?
[23:53:05] <PetefromTn_> I would not throw away shit until I figure out what you have there
[23:53:21] <zeeshan|2> maybe these guys can store it for me
[23:53:22] <PetefromTn_> then decide what you do and do not need
[23:53:37] <zeeshan|2> he just msged me saying i can disassemble the machine there
[23:53:41] <PetefromTn_> roll that Mazda outside and put a nice cover on it temporarily..
[23:53:44] <zeeshan|2> and they'd like to deliver by friday

[23:54:16] <PetefromTn_> was it a tag along forklift?
[23:54:25] <zeeshan|2> it was a 12,500 lb fork lift
[23:54:28] <zeeshan|2> it was getting tipsy
[23:54:31] <zeeshan|2> they got scared and stopped
[23:54:37] <PetefromTn_> you're kidding me
[23:54:49] <PetefromTn_> how much does that bitch weigh?
[23:55:40] <zeeshan|2> PetefromTn_: the manual says 10500lb
[23:55:42] <PetefromTn_> gotta be honest man that chuck looks huge in the pictures.. gonna take some serious horsepower to spin that thing up.
[23:55:43] <zeeshan|2> but thats w/ everything
[23:56:04] <PetefromTn_> that is not to bad why did the fork tip then?
[23:56:06] <zeeshan|2> the school laths have a bigger chuck
[23:56:12] <zeeshan|2> and they are 7.5hp
[23:56:19] <zeeshan|2> thats why i think i can get away with 7.5 to 10hp
[23:56:20] <zeeshan|2> no prob
[23:56:23] <PetefromTn_> what size chuck is it?
[23:56:31] <bobo> zeeshan red thing might be a very small partical filter to keep the thru tooling coolant system from pluging up
[23:57:14] <zeeshan|2> i'd say 12"?
[23:57:18] <PetefromTn_> I hope you can get it powered with the 10hp and it works good for you because that is about all I could run here...would be awesome.
[23:57:27] <zeeshan|2> i hope so too pete
[23:57:28] <zeeshan|2> i think itll work
[23:57:32] <zeeshan|2> i can spin that chuck by hand btw
[23:57:33] <PetefromTn_> might have to regear the pullies
[23:57:39] <zeeshan|2> it was very easy to spin
[23:57:45] <zeeshan|2> when i went to see it
[23:57:48] <PetefromTn_> thats good
[23:58:07] <zeeshan|2> do youi think my plan is okay?
[23:58:10] <zeeshan|2> leave the coolant crap there
[23:58:15] <zeeshan|2> conveyor there (Definitely throwing this away)
[23:58:25] <PetefromTn_> worst case you sacrifice some speed for torque and regear the pullies to make it work
[23:58:25] <zeeshan|2> then remove that stupid over arm
[23:58:33] <zeeshan|2> ill keep the handle
[23:58:35] <zeeshan|2> but get rid of the arm
[23:58:41] <zeeshan|2> handle = controls i mean
[23:58:50] <zeeshan|2> remove the motor, chuck it
[23:58:50] <PetefromTn_> doubt you will need it.

[23:59:42] <zeeshan|2> yea man, but i got no space :(
[23:59:43] <PetefromTn_> the chip conveyor can usually be used on other machines so it is worth a little bit of cash if it works
[23:59:55] <zeeshan|2> like say i bring the motor here
