[00:04:13] <PetefromTn_> yup can I get a Rick Flair WOOO
[00:04:53] <_methods> what time do the do the powerball thing anyways
[00:05:36] <PetefromTn_> no idea
[00:06:15] <_methods> i can't find time on their website
[00:06:27] <_methods> it's quite the disaster for all the gazillions of dollars they ahve
[00:06:59] <_methods> ah there it is

[00:07:23] <PetefromTn_> WOOO
[00:07:53] <PetefromTn_> gotta eat my pulled pork sammich and run down to the gas station to get my super villian money tickets!!
[00:09:59] <Jymmm> Heh, this is what we had... http://www.walmart.com/ip/Lloyd-s-Simple-Ideas-Shredded-Beef-in-Original-BBQ-Sauce-15-oz/10293625
[00:11:06] <PetefromTn_> Jymm this is my wife's homemade pulled pork
[00:11:18] <Jymmm> PetefromTn_: I'll be right over
[00:11:33] <PetefromTn_> hell yeah man it is pretty good ;)
[00:12:02] <PetefromTn_> actually she made it over the weekend since my son is home from the Navy and we are eating lefotvers but it sure is good hehe
[00:12:50] <Jymmm> lil red onion and butter pickles
[00:13:12] <PetefromTn_> nice
[00:13:39] <PetefromTn_> she made some pan fried red potatoes as a side for us tonight
[00:14:26] <Jymmm> nice
[00:14:49] <Jymmm> we had those for xmas with our NY Roast
[00:16:30] <Jymmm> If you ever get the opportunity, the BEST DAMN potatoes I've ever had were lil red potatoes halced, and deep fried in peanut oil, then spinkled wit layers season salt.
[00:16:38] <Jymmm> halved*
[00:17:12] <Jymmm> I went thru 5lbs, then hit the store for 10 more lbs!
[00:17:46] <Jymmm> It was after I had deep fried 5 turkeys and hot lots of hot oil left
[00:18:47] <PetefromTn_> that sounds pretty much like what I am eating right now LOL
[00:18:58] <PetefromTn_> I don't know if she used peanut oil tho
[00:19:13] <Jymmm> kinda pricy, so probably not
[00:19:29] <Jymmm> espeically whenyou buy 5 gallons of it =)
[00:19:30] <PetefromTn_> she said she used olive oil
[00:19:37] <Jymmm> nice
[00:26:56] <andypugh> I ate no turkey at all, all Christmas. Bul lots of yummy sprouts.
[00:27:13] <Jymmm> andypugh: vegan?
[00:27:21] <andypugh> Not that wierd
[00:27:30] <Jymmm> vegetarian?
[00:27:37] <andypugh> That wierd
[00:27:40] <Jymmm> ah
[00:28:15] <Jymmm> I like bacon too much to be vegetarian
[00:28:16] <andypugh> At the LinuxCNC meet in Wichita a couple of years ago I found that there were at least 5 of us.
[00:28:34] <Jymmm> I know cradek is, now you
[00:28:44] <andypugh> I was amazed to find that LinuxCNC developers are so wierd.
[00:28:52] <Jymmm> I'm not
[00:29:31] <andypugh> They are quite sarcastic too.
[00:30:42] <Jymmm> They are "something" at least ;)
[00:31:25] <Jymmm> After all these years, still trying to figure out what that may be
[00:33:20] <malcom2073> developers in general are weird
[00:33:43] <Jymmm> Anyone need a lil 20W audio amp? http://www.banggood.com/Muse-M20-EX2-TA2020-20Wx2-Digital-Audio-T-Amp-Stereo-Hi-Fi-Amplifier-p-937634.html
[00:34:22] <Jymmm> malcom2073: I think that might be insulting to the rest of us non-dev weirdos
[00:35:03] <malcom2073> Trust me, being segregated from developers is not a bad thing :P
[00:35:39] <Jymmm> I usually jsut open the cage toss in a bunch of bananas and hope for the best (which isn't all that, well, you know)
[00:36:33] <Jymmm> malcom2073: I think they need to preen each other a LOT more than they do now.
[00:37:17] <Jymmm> malcom2073: If they did, then there would be a lot less bugs ;)
[00:37:22] <malcom2073> It depends on the type. Some of them require preening, some of them require violent beatings, some require preenings inbetween violent beatings
[00:38:11] <Jymmm> malcom2073: I'll leave any beating in your capable hands
[00:38:26] <malcom2073> Nah I'll pass, I'm a developer, so I don't want karma to get me
[00:38:59] * Jymmm doesn't code well with others
[00:39:26] <malcom2073> I code fantastically with others as long as they do what I say :-D
[00:40:33] <Jymmm> malcom2073: Yeah? try that shit with me and I'll set YOU on fire... now, go play with the fire extinuisher like a good lil code monkey!

[00:42:07] <Jymmm> Now, where was I? Oh yeah... 10 LPRINT CHR$(12)/n 20 GOTO 10/n
[00:43:25] <jdh> I have written assloads of code, but it would never occur to me to call myself a 'developer'
[00:43:53] <Jymmm> jdh: Yeah, same here. I dont call/consider myself a dev,
[00:44:27] <Jymmm> more like arsenal in the toolbox
[00:45:18] <malcom2073> Eh, sometimes I'm a coder, sometimes I'm a developer. Depends how much a client pays heh

[00:45:42] <andypugh> I don’t consider myself as a developer in the generic sense. But I am undeniably a member of the set of all LinuxCNC developers.
[00:45:46] * Jymmm tosses a banana pizza at malcom2073
[00:45:56] <malcom2073> Hey, for food I'm all yours
[00:46:44] <Jymmm> malcom2073: That's the same for all coders and IT guys, bring em food and you can almost have anything.
[00:47:15] <malcom2073> I'm a foodie, I think most computer geeks are
[00:47:15] <jdh> today I was mostly a plumber. or a pipefitter maybe.
[00:47:42] <jdh> foodies are hipsters with money
[00:47:52] <Jymmm> My neighbors main broke. It's been raining non-stop for the last 48 hours
[00:48:14] <Jymmm> I think I heard the plumber leave about 10 minutes ago.
[00:48:21] <malcom2073> I wish I had enough money to beconsidered with money :P
[00:48:31] <Jymmm> Cause: tree root
[00:48:59] <jdh> I was plumbing helium and nitrogen. again.
[00:49:07] <jdh> I much prefer software.
[00:49:21] <Jymmm> in your tank array thingy?
[00:49:30] <jdh> nah, work.
[00:49:35] <Jymmm> ah
[00:49:43] <Jymmm> I think your refill station
[00:49:45] <Jymmm> thought*
[00:49:54] <jdh> very similar. work is lower pressure though.

[00:50:06] teepee_ is now known as teepee
[00:50:12] <Jymmm> ah
[00:50:34] <jdh> lots of the same plumbing. The difference is that the parts on mine cost about 5-10% as much, even though they are identical
[00:51:12] <Jymmm> do you use any kind of pump (at home) for refilling?
[00:51:43] <jdh> I have compressor and a gas booster
[00:51:49] <Jymmm> k
[00:52:35] <jdh> I buy my plumbing off ebay when it is really cheap.
[00:53:01] <Jymmm> fittings and such?
[00:53:18] <jdh> every few years, I have accumulated enough parts to rebuild my fill station
[00:53:44] <malcom2073> Ftill station? What are you doing?
[00:53:48] <Jymmm> There ya go. Wehn I see a fitting I have nfc what size or thread type it is
[00:53:53] <jdh> yeah. better to get what is cheap when it is cheap
[00:54:06] <jdh> filling scuba tanks
[00:54:15] <malcom2073> Oh cool
[00:54:30] <Jymmm> I have to goto the hardware store just to figure what I need =)
[00:54:32] <jdh> I bought 5 valves for $100. same ones cost $300/each at work
[01:03:04] <bobo_> Jymmm are you using threaded fittings or solder on or glued type?
[01:03:08] <andypugh> Nothing inspires confidence like bargain Scuba tank valves :-)
[01:04:16] <bobo_> worst is iffy scuba tank pump
[01:04:16] <jdh> swagelok quarter turn ball valves
[01:05:02] <Jymmm> bobo_: It could be ovc, flare, plumbing, water, air, nitrogen, etc, etc, etc
[01:05:07] <Jymmm> pvc*
[01:05:49] <Jymmm> jdh: are those bad? (1/4 turn)
[01:06:08] <bobo_> swagelok = $$ but are good stuff
[01:06:27] <jdh> depends on the use. They are perfect for some things
[01:06:40] <Jymmm> oh, I thought he meant for house supply line stuff
[01:07:25] <Jymmm> per fixture that is
[01:07:30] <jdh> they tend to open abruptly. Not so great for high pressue oxygen
[01:07:37] <Jymmm> under sink, behind toilet, etc
[01:07:49] <Jymmm> jdh: lovely... not

[01:26:42] <andypugh> Somebody seems to have missed the point of CNC: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NV1ZOzAaXbo
[01:30:50] <zeeshan> what do you expect from a person running mach 3 :)
[01:33:19] <chupacabra> lol
[01:34:22] <andypugh> To be fair doing it that way probably gives a better guarantee of circularity than having Y and Z track the journals as they rotate

[01:38:03] <zeeshan> andypugh: teach me control systems
[01:38:07] <zeeshan> i got all my course notes today
[01:38:10] <zeeshan> im already confuse d:)
[01:38:11] <malcom2073> Heh
[01:38:30] <zeeshan> this doesnt look like my old controls class :{
[01:38:39] <Tom_itx> zee confused!?
[01:39:04] <andypugh> I have no training in control systems at all. Don’t ask me :-)
[01:39:39] <malcom2073> I want to make a model engine someday
[01:39:47] <malcom2073> I'm a far way away from that though
[01:39:55] <zeeshan> "in general control objectives can be separated into two problems, the regulation problem and the servoing problem. regulation problem - the goal is to keep the output close to a constant setpoint including 0. servoing problem: the goal is to make the output response to changes in the setpoint in a specified way
[01:40:31] <zeeshan> regulation is termed good disturbance rejection, good servoing is termed low sensitivity
[01:40:39] <zeeshan> i got lost that the "servoing" part :P
[01:41:05] <malcom2073> holding position vs moving to position?
[01:41:27] -!- hm2-buildmaster has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[01:41:30] -!- linuxcnc-build has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[01:41:31] <malcom2073> variable load static position, vs static load variable position?
[01:43:12] <zeeshan> i thinkso
[01:43:25] <zeeshan> to me i was intrepreting it as the velocity curve of a servo
[01:43:28] <andypugh> malcom2073: This guy is still working, but not updating the website. http://www.f1-2000.co.uk/index.php?f=conrods
[01:43:31] <malcom2073> Makes sense, servoing typically means moving to position
[01:43:32] <zeeshan> the initial part is what he's referring to as servoing
[01:43:39] <zeeshan> and the flat portion is the part that is the cosntant section
[01:43:56] <malcom2073> andypugh: Yeah I've seen his website
[01:44:01] <zeeshan> but why is low sensitivity good
[01:44:02] <andypugh> He sent me some photos of his tig-welded 5-branck manifolds in 10mm dia stainless. Beautiful.
[01:44:05] <zeeshan> i thought it'd be high sensitivity :P
[01:44:33] <malcom2073> sensitivity perhaps meaning the I in pid?
[01:45:20] <malcom2073> Yeah I don't know anything about that sort of stuff :P Only what I read on google
[01:45:54] <andypugh> I think it is time for me to go to bed before I am spotted as a fraud in Control Theory.

[02:11:58] <PetefromTn_> hey
[02:12:15] <pink_vampire> how I can make an enclosure to my machine?
[02:12:22] <pink_vampire> hi PetefromTn_
[02:12:22] -!- cheetah2 has quit [Client Quit]
[02:12:29] <PetefromTn_> what machine?

[02:12:51] -!- cheetah2 [cheetah2!~cheetah2@172.242.102.144] has joined #linuxcnc
[02:12:53] <PetefromTn_> well I made a nice enclosure for my old RF45
[02:12:58] <pink_vampire> I want it to be watertight
[02:13:06] -!- tinkerer has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[02:13:09] <PetefromTn_> I made the base out of furniture grade plywood
[02:13:18] <PetefromTn_> put together with pocket screws
[02:13:43] <PetefromTn_> and then I fiberglassed over the seams and sealed the entire thing with the fiberglass resin
[02:13:46] <pink_vampire> wood??
[02:14:01] <PetefromTn_> then I built the surround with aluminum channel and plexi
[02:14:08] <PetefromTn_> yeah furniture grade plywood.
[02:14:34] <pink_vampire> but the base has 4 bolts that go down
[02:15:14] -!- cheetah2 has quit [Client Quit]
[02:15:15] <pink_vampire> how I keep the water from running down through the 4 holes at the bottom?
[02:15:35] -!- cheetah2 [cheetah2!~cheetah2@172.242.102.144] has joined #linuxcnc
[02:15:40] <Tom_itx> plug them with the bolts
[02:15:43] <PetefromTn_> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4TxQYivMjo you can see it in some of my videos
[02:15:49] <PetefromTn_> my machine had the same bolts
[02:16:22] <PetefromTn_> I actually put the bolts into hockey pucks and glassed the pucks into the face of the enclosure base
[02:16:26] <pink_vampire> now If I'm oil the machine the oil can get in to the stand.
[02:16:58] <Tom_itx> i used enamel on mine to prevent that
[02:17:42] <pink_vampire> enamel ?
[02:17:46] amnesic_away is now known as amnesic
[02:17:56] <pink_vampire> you need very high heat for that..
[02:17:58] <pink_vampire> no?

[02:20:09] <pink_vampire> yeah..
[02:20:25] amnesic is now known as amnesic_away
[02:20:37] <pink_vampire> how I can make it look more professional
[02:27:00] <malcom2073> Shiny paint, big logos
[02:27:01] <malcom2073> stripes!
[02:27:04] <malcom2073> Big machines need stripes

[02:28:38] <Tom_itx> build a 'VMC' type enclosure with sliding doors etc
[02:29:01] <PetefromTn_> if you wanted it to look Professional you should have bought a VMC har har ;)
[02:29:05] <Tom_itx> coolant trays, conveyor, tool changer etc
[02:29:26] <zeeshan> PetefromTn_: its funny you owned a rf45 =P
[02:29:41] <Tom_itx> ask zeeshan, you can paint a turd any color you like... it's still a turd
[02:29:42] <PetefromTn_> why is that funny ;)
[02:29:49] <zeeshan> cause you got a big ass machine now
[02:29:51] <zeeshan> was a big jump
[02:29:58] <PetefromTn_> yup sure was
[02:30:12] <PetefromTn_> but I made a lot of shit with that little mill
[02:30:18] <PetefromTn_> it was fun
[02:30:25] <PetefromTn_> I would have another one for a great deal
[02:30:31] <PetefromTn_> as a backup mill
[02:30:42] <malcom2073> I want a VMC, once I learn wtf I'm doing, and get my barn concreted+insulated
[02:30:43] -!- cheetah2 has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[02:30:56] <PetefromTn_> DO IT!
[02:31:01] <zeeshan> malcom2073: i dont thinkso
[02:31:04] <malcom2073> It's in the 10 year plan :P
[02:31:08] <zeeshan> you installed steppers on your mill
[02:31:14] <zeeshan> you are damned for life
[02:31:18] <malcom2073> zeeshan: I'll install steppers on a VMC
[02:31:19] <Tom_itx> it's difficult to do what you want with residential power
[02:31:22] <malcom2073> *just* to annoy you
[02:31:27] <zeeshan> Tom_itx: bs!
[02:31:45] <Duc> rotary conventors take care of that issue
[02:31:48] <Tom_itx> it presents obstacles you wouldn't have in an industrial area
[02:31:52] <PetefromTn_> I put servos on my RF45 :D
[02:32:14] <malcom2073> Can you get VMC's in the 5hp variety? VFD's get terribly expensive after that
[02:32:33] <PetefromTn_> mine is 10hp
[02:33:05] <Tom_itx> maybe for tool & die shops etc
[02:33:06] <malcom2073> PetefromTn_: Rotary converter or VFD?
[02:33:21] <malcom2073> I know where to get 25HP motors for cheap at least
[02:34:28] -!- cheetah2 [cheetah2!~cheetah2@172.242.102.144] has joined #linuxcnc
[02:34:48] <PetefromTn_> I am running both my machines entirely on single phase no rotary
[02:35:08] <malcom2073> See, 10HP VFD's aren't cheap though
[02:35:22] <Sync> they are not shit though
[02:35:26] <PetefromTn_> nothing about VMC's is cheap man
[02:35:31] <malcom2073> Quite so
[02:35:34] <PetefromTn_> but yeah
[02:35:39] <PetefromTn_> my VMC is around a grand
[02:35:44] <PetefromTn_> VFD
[02:35:49] <malcom2073> yeah
[02:35:50] <zeeshan> cheap
[02:35:50] <zeeshan> :D
[02:35:54] <malcom2073> My VFD was $80 heh
[02:35:58] <PetefromTn_> I am using the hitachi WJ200-110lf
[02:36:11] <PetefromTn_> WTF kind of VFD is 80 bucks?
[02:36:17] <malcom2073> A 2hp used one off ebay :P
[02:36:23] <PetefromTn_> aan
[02:36:25] <PetefromTn_> aah
[02:36:35] <zeeshan> you should see how much the 200hp vfd's cost
[02:36:36] <zeeshan> from work :D
[02:36:59] <zeeshan> i was overhearing someone ordering 8 of them
[02:37:03] <zeeshan> for some pumping station
[02:37:04] <malcom2073> So there are open source servo drives nowadays, where's the open source VFD's?
[02:37:17] <malcom2073> ping Sync
[02:37:17] <Sync> they are the same thing
[02:37:27] <malcom2073> Right on cue
[02:37:30] <PetefromTn_> heh
[02:37:33] <Sync> the new hardware™®© can do async FOC
[02:37:38] <malcom2073> Oh wait.... duh, brushless servo drive haha
[02:37:49] <malcom2073> Most servo drive designs aren't high HP though
[02:37:54] <PetefromTn_> can it run a 7.5hp 3 phase motor?
[02:37:57] * zeeshan will stick to proven servo drives and vfds
[02:38:00] <zeeshan> not open source!
[02:38:18] <malcom2073> zeeshan: Stick to "proven" control systems too, not open source
[02:38:19] <malcom2073> ;)
[02:38:24] <zeeshan> thats a diff story
[02:38:34] <PetefromTn_> BURN
[02:38:34] <Sync> well, that just depends on the hardware after all PetefromTn_
[02:38:35] <malcom2073> Yeah, that's proven by uh... different... people?
[02:38:43] <Sync> the motor model does not care
[02:39:05] <zeeshan> malcom2073: it's tested.
[02:39:05] <PetefromTn_> I'm just gonna use the Hitachi I think
[02:39:10] <zeeshan> for all sorts of conditions
[02:39:30] <zeeshan> the vfd's at work go through so much certification
[02:39:30] <malcom2073> zeeshan: For varying levels of "all sorts", everything is tested for all sorts of conditions
[02:39:44] <zeeshan> yea?
[02:39:49] <zeeshan> do they go through seismic testing?
[02:39:52] <zeeshan> temperature rise test?
[02:39:57] <malcom2073> Does linuxcnc go through seismic testing?
[02:39:57] <PetefromTn_> BURNNNNN
[02:40:01] <PetefromTn_> ;)
[02:40:16] <malcom2073> Has your mesa board gone through a temperature rise test?
[02:40:18] <zeeshan> why am i arguing with a person who put steppers on his machine
[02:40:24] <malcom2073> Because you're a fool? :P
[02:40:28] <zeeshan> yes i must be
[02:40:32] <PetefromTn_> BBBUUUUURRRRNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!
[02:40:33] <malcom2073> And I'm trolling you, and you're gullible
[02:40:39] <malcom2073> Lol PetefromTn_'s having fun cookin over there
[02:40:50] <PetefromTn_> I am enjoying the frackas
[02:40:51] <zeeshan> malcom2073: you need to see mesa's website
[02:40:57] <zeeshan> to answer your own question
[02:41:32] <malcom2073> zeeshan: Linuxcnc.org didn't mention anything about a temperature rise test, and mesa isn't open source anyway so it doesn't count
[02:41:34] <zeeshan> http://store.mesanet.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=69_62&product_id=55
[02:41:35] <zeeshan> read
[02:41:37] <zeeshan> the options.
[02:41:49] <pink_vampire> I'm looking now in google. and 80% of the DIY enclosure look like sh*t
[02:42:01] <PetefromTn_> gee thanks
[02:42:36] <Tom_itx> guess you don't need our help
[02:42:42] <zeeshan> theres a fixture at work
[02:42:47] <zeeshan> that simulates harsh dust conditions
[02:42:50] <pink_vampire> I think sliding doors is must
[02:42:53] <zeeshan> i wonder if open source goes through that :)
[02:43:16] <malcom2073> I'll put linuxcnc on a USB key, and throw it in the desert
[02:43:19] <malcom2073> see if it comes out the other side ok
[02:43:23] <Sync> does your chinese vfd go through that?
[02:43:36] <zeeshan> i would never run a chinese vfd
[02:43:40] <Sync> I mean, it is opensource, you can do all the testing yourself
[02:43:43] <Sync> !
[02:43:44] <PetefromTn_> I'll put mine in the mic for a couple secs
[02:43:59] <zeeshan> chinese vfds are so bad that none of the big name companies rebrand them
[02:44:11] <malcom2073> zeeshan is very carefully ignoring the linuxcnc argument, and focusing on the mesa (non)argument :P
[02:44:36] <Sync> they actually are not that bad hardware wise
[02:44:37] <PetefromTn_> come one powerball!!

[02:45:33] <PetefromTn_> $2000 enclosure on a $1000 machine
[02:45:42] <Duc> seems a little wrong
[02:45:51] <Duc> and fitting doesnt seem that good from the pictures
[02:45:57] <malcom2073> My dad just got rid of his brake, otherwise I could make that
[02:46:39] <FloppyDisk> Should I bring up the 'othermill' from last night - hehe...
[02:46:52] <pink_vampire> LOL
[02:47:04] <PetefromTn_> musta missed it
[02:47:07] <pink_vampire> FloppyDisk: you are crazy,,
[02:47:42] <FloppyDisk> Just joking, I have no ties to that mill... But, you'd have the whole mill AND enclosure for your $2100 :-)
[02:48:11] <pink_vampire> my machine is located in the living room..
[02:48:32] <Duc> still confused on that part so much mess and smell
[02:48:39] <FloppyDisk> pink_vampire: Good idea for an enclosure:-)

[02:49:12] <FloppyDisk> Oh, they have 21 in stock:-)
[02:49:42] <malcom2073> I dunno, those rods look pretty big, it might be an ok engraver

[02:52:24] <malcom2073> I'ma use a stepper for my tool changer too
[02:52:47] <malcom2073> zeeshan: If I didn't fry one of my servo drives, I totally would've tried servos :P

[02:57:10] <PetefromTn_> well thats not true exactly
[02:57:14] <PetefromTn_> once when I was a kid
[02:57:16] <Sync> hm, I need a larger surface plate
[02:57:18] <pink_vampire> now DC servos and stepper are almost the same price..
[02:57:24] <PetefromTn_> my grandpa took me to Miami Jai Alia
[02:57:37] <PetefromTn_> and he told me to pick the winner
[02:57:41] <malcom2073> pink_vampire Don't forget to figure in the cost of drivers + mesa setup
[02:57:43] <PetefromTn_> I won him $50
[02:57:52] <Sync> there is no reason to use dc servos, bldcs are way better
[02:57:56] <PetefromTn_> but that is the extent of my winning history
[02:58:04] <pink_vampire> I have LPT + G320X
[02:58:17] <malcom2073> Psh
[02:58:24] <PetefromTn_> parallel port GAHHHH!
[02:58:29] <PetefromTn_> just kidding
[02:58:32] <pink_vampire> I like the setup.
[02:58:40] <malcom2073> I have some step-dir input elmo servo drives
[02:58:44] <PetefromTn_> my RF45 ran off the PP
[02:58:44] <pink_vampire> I like the LPT..
[02:58:45] <malcom2073> fidled around with them a bit with my servos
[02:59:02] <PetefromTn_> I had the CNC4PC C11G board

[03:02:45] <PetefromTn_> I used the antek power supply too
[03:02:49] <malcom2073> That'd totally run my mill nice
[03:02:56] <pink_vampire> zeeshan: no.. I sust google stuff
[03:03:02] <zeeshan> o

[03:17:51] <PetefromTn_> Oh I see how it is :D
[03:17:56] <pink_vampire> the problem with heels, is to find the shoes that look nice and also be comfortable
[03:18:28] <Sync> pfft, finding nice energy chain rated network cable is hard
[03:19:04] <PetefromTn_> speaking of chain I need to find a stainless steel flexible cable chain for my CNC lathe unless I can fix mine...
[03:19:47] <pink_vampire> and because heels are almost always not comfortable at all we have to buy new shoes all the time..
[03:20:02] <Sync> use a plastic one PetefromTn_
[03:20:46] <pink_vampire> and if it's comfortable probably going to look bad..
[03:22:06] <PetefromTn_> plastic one?
[03:22:36] <PetefromTn_> I dunno I think high heels are sexy...sometimes...on women..ahem

[07:31:47] <FloppyDisk> net spindle-vel-fb => motion.spindle-speed-in
[07:32:17] <FloppyDisk> setup using pncconf
[07:32:39] <FloppyDisk> questions is: spindle-vel-fb is 'not really anything' other than a name? Or do I have that wrong?
[07:32:59] <FloppyDisk> I'm trying to setup a spindle encoder and see that I should change that line:
[07:33:06] <FloppyDisk> #net spindle-vel-fb => motion.spindle-speed-in
[07:33:20] <FloppyDisk> to: net spindle-vel-fb-rps hm2_5i25.0.encoder.03.velocity motion.spindle-speed-in
[07:33:22] <archivist> its the name of a net
[07:33:49] <FloppyDisk> archivist: that's my question - it's a name of a net, but I only 'assign' one pin and not to anything else, I think????
[07:34:05] <archivist> you can make up any name, for understandable files make those names sensible/state what it does
[07:34:23] <FloppyDisk> In the case of the first line, motion.spindle-speed.in is assigned to spendle-vel-fb --> correct?
[07:34:36] <FloppyDisk> since that's the case, then I assign it to 'nothing...'
[07:34:55] <archivist> so you want an encoder output to drive that I assume
[07:34:58] <FloppyDisk> Well, not really nothing - sorry, but I don't do anything w/ it...
[07:35:04] <FloppyDisk> Ummm,
[07:35:42] <FloppyDisk> I want to setup rigid tapping and it appears there are a few pins to setup. Using 'tomes' files from the forum here:
[07:35:43] <FloppyDisk> https://forum.linuxcnc.org/forum/10-advanced-configuration/29579-new-quadrature-encoder-index-questions
[07:36:06] <FloppyDisk> Doesn't look too bad, I'm just not the best Hal net/pin guy, but this is how you learn:-)
[07:36:15] <archivist> sure is
[07:37:05] <archivist> fun is turning the spindle by hand and watching the rest move in synch
[07:37:12] <FloppyDisk> I also think that's just a net name (spindle-vel-fb) and my pin is assigned to that. so, I should be good.
[07:37:34] <FloppyDisk> I have thought about the hand turning and am totally excited about that?? lol...
[07:37:38] <FloppyDisk> I'm easily amused.
[07:38:00] <FloppyDisk> Plus, it would be so cool to put that on halscope and see it.
[07:38:10] <FloppyDisk> just to do it.
[07:38:14] <archivist> I have done a couple of hobbing setups where there is variable gearing too
[07:38:46] <FloppyDisk> I'm a poor machinist, but hobbing as in gear cutting?
[07:39:19] <archivist> in that case we are ignoring motion and connecting the spindle encoder direct to the rotary
[07:39:40] <archivist> yes gear gutting
[07:39:44] <archivist> cutting
[07:40:02] <FloppyDisk> got it, seems confusing, but cool.
[07:41:08] <archivist> it is one of the wonders that we can connect up anything sensible
[07:41:53] <FloppyDisk> I agree, amazed at what others can do w/ lcnc. It's not always easy, but it is powerful.
[07:42:08] -!- jdqx has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[07:42:17] <FloppyDisk> And, really it mostly makes sense, just trying to figure it out.
[07:43:24] <archivist> I am just trying to get my head around the code to analyse gearing errors, I used linuxcnc to do the logging
[07:45:47] <FloppyDisk> sounds cool. gear cutting is a whole different deal. Hurts my head (which is easy to do).
[07:53:59] <archivist> gear milling just needs a rotary and simple gcode to rotate it in steps

[13:33:46] <malcom2073> Heh, mine does that around hard right turns every couple of months if I forget to put more oil in it :P
[13:39:17] <Jymmm> Loetmichel: You're worse than a girl (I knew)! She blrw up not one but THREE cars because she didn't do/check oil changes
[13:41:55] <Loetmichel> Jymmm: i should have refilled half a year ago when the OBC starts warning "check oil level" ;)

[13:43:21] <malcom2073> That's the oil pressure light, the low oil light usually tiggers first
[13:43:36] <malcom2073> If you're lucky enough to have one, and just plain lucky heh
[13:43:50] <Loetmichel> the Onboard comp has its own sensor for level. it warns about half a liter below minimum
[13:44:31] <Loetmichel> malcom2073: it WAS the pressure light coming on ;)
[13:44:36] <malcom2073> Hah oops
[13:44:36] <Jymmm> I've never seen a level, just pressure due to low oil or malfiction
[13:44:44] <Loetmichel> ... the OBC is warning since last september
[13:45:31] <Loetmichel> asl long as the pressure losses are shorter than about a second it isnt a problem tho
[13:45:49] <Loetmichel> usually the oil film in the bearings can cover that time
[13:45:53] <Jymmm> lol, YES it is!
[13:46:29] <Loetmichel> especially when it only hallens while decellerating where the engine is on low load
[13:47:12] <Jymmm> Othe than when starting, low oil pressure is ALWAYS an issue
[13:48:00] <Jymmm> friction baby, friction, then grinding, then KaPOW
[13:48:40] <Loetmichel> Jymmm. thats what i just said: shorter than a second with no load is no problem because of still enough film in there-> no friction

[15:23:42] <needlessnavel> yes
[15:23:49] <ReadError> needlessnavel creditcard companies do tho

[15:25:53] <needlessnavel> but now as a third party doing the install I am trying to make the customer happy but working with crap and limited support on servo drives old as dirt and unsupported, so I am shooting in the darke
[15:26:17] <archivist> you could sneak a linuxcnc setup on a second partition, then demonstrate advantages :)
[15:27:14] <needlessnavel> I was thinking about that actually the hardware is galil
[15:27:21] <ReadError> make them eat the loss and learn to consult before buying?
[15:28:59] <needlessnavel> my problem is I get the servos steady and then fire up there crap sofware and the servos start to creep on me, and there software will not tun the drives because they are rotating beyond tollerance
[15:32:09] <needlessnavel> I use Mach3 personally on a homemade conversion and have not had a single issue
[15:34:05] <needlessnavel> I just can't stand how these companies strong arm people into spending over a grand for software that feels and looks like I just installed windows 95, i mean when installing their are even cheap sound effect, one of whichs sounds like a phaser beam

[15:45:55] <needlessnavel> Yea I knew that, the problem is they told this custom they've done this machine before only for me to find out they got the info from someone else and are a middle man, so I call them and they say well we've never done that machine before we aquired the info else where

[16:45:24] <FloppyDisk> except you could buy the elo and PC for about $400-ish... but more work.
[16:45:28] <pink_vampire> it's a good brand?
[16:45:29] <malcom2073> I have a couple of 7" lilliputs I could only ever get working in Windows

[16:50:12] <pink_vampire> the hmi is just a regular pc?
[16:50:15] <CaptHindsight> we played with the Acer multitouch panels, unfortunately how the drivers and desktop are tweaked by the distro greatly effects how they operate

[16:51:02] <Roguish> or you can always write your own.....
[16:51:12] <FloppyDisk> HMI is generic for the screen you press. could be monitor (w/ touchscreen) or a built in computer or one of htose autodirect

[17:47:59] <Sync> the corner radius is significantly larger
[17:48:00] <archivist> already cracked probably
[17:48:04] <Sync> yeah
[17:48:19] <Sync> but that means that you have to shave a good 5/100mm off the edge to get to virgin carbide
[17:48:49] <Sync> Loetmichel: yes, they use tungsten carbide, otherwise you would be sharpening it all the time
[17:48:52] <archivist> I can imagine you would have to take a lot off each time
[17:49:28] <Sync> I need to get me a confocal microscope so I can actually get 3D images of the things
[17:49:36] <archivist> I know my steel scrapers dont last long at all
[17:50:16] <SpeedEvil> On a related topic.
[17:50:18] <Sync> the carbide is pretty fine grained
[17:50:28] <Sync> I gotta get the SEM fired up and do some XPS
[17:50:29] <SpeedEvil> Is there a nice automated method of measuring the sharpness of an edge?
[17:50:30] <archivist> or adjust lighting to get better images
[17:50:31] <SpeedEvil> ^cheap
[17:50:49] <FloppyDisk> NOISE question... I'm hooking up a 5vdc, single-ended encoder for my mill. the cable has a shield, it'll be floating on the motor side (has to be based on design).
[17:50:49] <SpeedEvil> i'm wondering about a knife-holder with an automated sharpener.
[17:51:01] <Sync> well, the lightning is plenty good enough, my phone just does not like messing with high contrast
[17:51:11] <FloppyDisk> do I hook up shield wire to 0vdc of the 5vdc or to chassis?
[17:51:24] <FloppyDisk> I'm afraid to do either way, but what would be the right way to do it?
[17:51:38] <FloppyDisk> I have the sserial errors w/ the 5i25/7i77 and don't want to add to that if I can help it.
[17:51:58] <archivist> chassis or not at all as the chassis is grounding it at the encoder end
[17:52:13] <FloppyDisk> Should've said encoder for spindle motor on the back of the motor.
[17:52:33] <Sync> the problem is also that I'm imaging in brightfield
[17:52:36] <FloppyDisk> I'm using an AMS 5040 board that is NOT grounded to chasis on the encoder end.
[17:52:45] <Sync> so that the fractures appear dark
[17:53:13] <archivist> wants a side illumination
[17:53:16] <FloppyDisk> I have a 3d printed plastic box/holder and the coupling is magnetic! So, my cable, I think can only be grounded on the mesa/control side.
[17:53:25] <FloppyDisk> I'll try it a bit and see what happens:-)

[18:23:59] <malcom2073> archivist: Is your upload terrible today, or is that just that big of an image?
[18:24:27] <archivist> one off curved shapes are much faster made by hand
[18:24:59] <archivist> my upload is always a bit slow and the images are a bit large
[18:25:33] <malcom2073> Why don't you host offsite?
[18:25:40] <malcom2073> I'm sure I've asked this before, but I don't remember :P
[18:25:46] <archivist> because data size
[18:25:59] <_methods> Gb = $$$$$$
[18:26:12] <malcom2073> Gb no, Tb yeah, How big is your whole archive?
[18:26:25] <archivist> 14gb or more
[18:26:38] <malcom2073> Oh that's tiny
[18:26:55] <archivist> not tiny when buying space
[18:27:05] <malcom2073> Hell you can get a 15GB VPS for $15 a year
[18:27:14] <malcom2073> Granted, that doesn't leave much room for the OS, but meh :P
[18:28:12] <malcom2073> I wish I could host my website here, but anytime anyone tries to access it, it would slow down my internet to a crawl lol
[18:28:12] <archivist> and I can run the dns and multiple things
[18:29:06] <malcom2073> That is nice to have complete control over it
[18:31:32] <Jymmm> malcom2073: link to this $15/ a year 15GB vps?
[18:31:39] <Sync> you can even run the dns when you are doing it not at home!

[18:32:46] <archivist> memory there is a killer
[18:32:50] <Jymmm> malcom2073: is the 500 GB bandwidth per month or year?
[18:32:55] <malcom2073> You don't need much memory for a simple webserver
[18:33:02] <malcom2073> I even run wordpress on mine and don't hit the limit
[18:33:11] <malcom2073> Jymmm: month
[18:33:24] <malcom2073> iirc, you can buy more on the side for not much
[18:33:26] <Jymmm> malcom2073: you sure?
[18:33:52] <malcom2073> Jymmm: That's what they told me when I asked, you can hop on their IRC and double check, there's a web client for it
[18:33:57] <archivist> you need memory to run the database at full speed
[18:34:07] <Jymmm> malcom2073: thanks
[18:34:08] <malcom2073> archivist: I pay $1 a month extra to offload the database
[18:34:16] <malcom2073> So yeah, there's that
[18:35:02] <archivist> mysql is using about 150 here
[18:35:04] <malcom2073> It's a shame, I have a dual cpu xeon server with 64gb of ram sitting at my house, and I'm forced to run my web server on a tiny tiny vps :P
[18:35:16] <malcom2073> archivist: So $15 a year + $12 a year for offloaded sql
[18:35:22] <malcom2073> Yeah it starts to add up heh
[18:35:47] <malcom2073> Ohhhh you know what

[23:34:11] <jfindley> Hello
[23:34:25] <JT-Shop> I got debian sneezy loaded on a computer and will work on the uspace kernel in the morning
[23:34:46] <JT-Shop> can't wait to test the 7i92... I think that is the number
[23:35:20] <JT-Shop> got my DB25 MM serial adapter so I can plug it into the 7i77 without a cable
[23:35:39] * JT-Shop waves from the peanut gallery
[23:36:20] <jfindley> Is a 6i25 and 7i76 all I need to control a 3 axis gantry router?
[23:36:24] -!- gonzo_nb has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[23:37:03] <JT-Shop> and a DB25 cable and a 24vdc power supply for field I/O
[23:37:13] <JT-Shop> steppers I assume
[23:37:32] <jfindley> yep, steppers. Steppers operate at 5.7V 1A, spindle is 9V 1A
[23:37:49] <jdh> steppers will need more V than that
[23:37:59] <JT-Shop> tiny little thing I'm guessing
[23:38:09] -!- PetefromTn_ [PetefromTn_!~IceChat9@75-136-59-160.dhcp.jcsn.tn.charter.com] has joined #linuxcnc
[23:38:14] <jfindley> 115x205x53mm
[23:38:27] <jfindley> Nice little desktop CNC machine
[23:38:43] * JT-Shop tries to multiply 115 x 0.03937 in his head but it explodes
[23:38:57] <Tom_itx> JT-Shop, you gettin your BP figured out?
[23:39:39] <JT-Shop> no, back to where it was before I started... can't figure out where the sserial errors are coming from but it is in the drive cabinet for sure
[23:39:55] <Tom_itx> 4.52755 btw
[23:40:09] <andypugh> jfindley: You know to completely ignore the voltage rating on steppers?
[23:40:09] <JT-Shop> lol
[23:40:24] <JT-Shop> jfindley: you got a photo of that monster?
[23:42:15] <JT-Shop> jfindley: http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Stepper_Formulas
[23:45:41] <jfindley> JT-Shop: I do somewhere.
[23:46:01] <jfindley> http://s1151.photobucket.com/user/radicaldev/media/20160104_082921.jpg.html
[23:46:53] <jfindley> bought it from somebody in here. Very cool machine, but I don't like the TinyG it came with much.
[23:47:57] <andypugh> Fun to compare that to Stuarts behemoths.
[23:49:03] <jfindley> It's just the right size to post-process some 3D printed stuff I've been working on
[23:49:39] <JT-Shop> cool
[23:49:49] -!- tjb1 has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[23:50:00] <jfindley> Once I get used to milling I'll invest in a bigger one, but for now I don't deserve that kind of power.
[23:50:02] <JT-Shop> nema 17 steppers?
[23:50:08] <andypugh> Don’t get me wrong, it’s much better to have the right size machine for the job.
[23:50:32] <jfindley> I think they're 23s
[23:50:38] <JT-Shop> looks well made
[23:50:41] <andypugh> The hold-down clamps for the MPM Viper would probably crush your parts :-)
[23:52:01] <jfindley> There's a little slop in the way the spindle is mounted to the vertical screw, I think I need to get another bearing made for it, but overall it's solid as a rock.
[23:52:17] <andypugh> I was thinking about making something in the 30mm x 30mm scale for my sister. For my sister to use, I mean. Not to mill my sister. That would be mean.
[23:52:33] <PetefromTn_> 0
[23:52:52] <jfindley> andypugh: You could make a robot that does facepaint.
[23:53:03] <Tom_itx> 26 in 24hrs

[23:53:19] <JT-Shop> quakes?
[23:53:35] <jdh> I went dumpster diving at work today. passed up a nice auto-sampler something from the lab. had a nice 2 axis belt driven stage
[23:53:49] <andypugh> jfindley: You may be understimating the age of my sister. She’s a goldsmith.
[23:54:13] <jdh> save your swarf
[23:54:47] <JT-Shop> does she do sling casting?
