[01:17:28] <gregcnc> zeeshan did you figure out what was happening with your vise?
[01:17:37] <zeeshan> yea
[01:17:38] <zeeshan> lol
[01:17:45] <zeeshan> it was moving the fixed jaw
[01:17:52] <zeeshan> i had to tighten the bolts holding it
[01:18:01] <gregcnc> nice
[01:18:58] <gregcnc> you'll be a pro soon enough
[01:19:18] <zeeshan> :P
[01:19:25] <gregcnc> 300 parts done?
[01:19:29] <zeeshan> nope
[01:19:32] <zeeshan> still running
[01:19:37] <zeeshan> its 500 now
[01:19:48] <zeeshan> im trying to offload some to my friend
[01:20:05] <zeeshan> i shoulda built a miteebite fixture plate
[01:21:10] <gregcnc> that would be nice
[01:21:45] <zeeshan> its crazy how much money they want for 6 of the pitbull clamps
[01:21:51] <zeeshan> its like 89$
[01:21:59] <Duc> yea they are pricey
[01:22:07] <Duc> for such a simple thing
[01:23:38] <gregcnc> yeah I've been trying to come up with something. It seems like pitbulls would be easy to make

[01:26:13] <zeeshan> shape should work
[01:26:47] <zeeshan> its really about doing the math :P
[01:27:33] <zeeshan> the next job after this one im designing a new vape for that customer who i made a bunch for
[01:27:41] <zeeshan> that job ill definitely be using a fixture plate
[01:27:50] <zeeshan> i need to make at least 10 per run
[01:28:07] <zeeshan> but holding wood down is a bit challenging with low profile clamps
[01:29:37] <zeeshan> http://www.carrlane.com/catalog/index.cfm/27825071F0B221118070C1C513E111D081B0006280B1713050245221E0107070F1A3C3B2853564658
[01:29:41] <zeeshan> hmm i wonder how much these are
[01:30:28] <evil_ren> ha they cammed the countersink instead of the screwhead?
[01:30:58] <gregcnc> I want to make tiny double vises for my machine.
[01:31:00] <gregcnc> http://www.apexindustrialsupply.com/tiny-vise-edge-clamps-1/
[01:31:09] <evil_ren> the matrix plate clamps i got uses button head screws with the heads machines into a cam
[01:31:18] <evil_ren> but the ones you linked look neat
[01:31:19] <zeeshan> evil_ren: pic?
[01:31:24] <evil_ren> hmm
[01:31:37] <evil_ren> gimme min i try and find the matrix plate company
[01:32:07] <evil_ren> http://www.hightechsystemsllc.com/taig.html
[01:32:33] <evil_ren> wait wtf wheres the clamp hardware
[01:33:02] <evil_ren> http://www.hightechsystemsllc.com/work_holding.html
[01:33:48] <evil_ren> cam screws are on the bottom, they go into the clamp bars and washers above the screw
[01:34:00] <zeeshan> ah theyre cammed
[01:34:08] <zeeshan> i'd prolly rip the part out
[01:34:10] <zeeshan> with the cut im doing
[01:34:21] <evil_ren> year i think theyre normal stainless button head
[01:34:26] <evil_ren> *yeah
[01:34:30] <zeeshan> if they had serrated edges
[01:34:36] <zeeshan> i think they would work really well
[01:34:57] <evil_ren> its pretty light duty but ive done aluminum cuts with it
[01:36:37] <evil_ren> wow your link, they go down to #8-32

[01:40:40] <evil_ren> tiny vise edge clamp, just saw gregcnc link
[01:40:50] <zeeshan> make a slot
[01:40:55] <zeeshan> slide in raw stock

[01:41:19] <evil_ren> CARRLANE MINIMUM ORDER $ 100.00 USD
[01:41:21] <zeeshan> use set screws with pointed edges to hold
[01:42:46] <evil_ren> $6 for 10 pack of the mitebite things isnt bad looking
[01:43:07] <zeeshan> what?!
[01:43:08] <zeeshan> where?
[01:43:19] <evil_ren> i meant $6ea for a 10 pack

[09:13:34] <mase-tech> Hi Everybody
[09:19:42] <XXCoder> hey
[09:20:00] <mase-tech> :)
[09:21:54] <mase-tech> how u like this design of the CNC machine
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JO3QQ-KKXPk&list=PLy11Xbe5BExJDRoHchAf9VeHPDFy2UxiU&index=19&nohtml5=False
[09:22:08] <mase-tech> I want to build a cheap CNC machine
[09:22:27] <mase-tech> to cut mainly wood and maybe Aluminium
[09:22:42] <mase-tech> plz take a look of the linear rail
[09:23:04] -!- FloppyDisk has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds]
[09:24:02] <XXCoder> that machine design seems cut from cnc?
[09:24:15] <mase-tech> I think yes
[09:24:28] <XXCoder> you have another cnc to cut it?
[09:24:29] <mase-tech> but I can do it by Handwork
[09:24:34] <XXCoder> ahh cool
[09:24:39] <mase-tech> no unfortunatly not
[09:25:04] <mase-tech> I want the cnc to evolve
[09:25:08] <mase-tech> like feymann said
[09:25:08] <XXCoder> that looks ok for wood
[09:25:13] <XXCoder> alum dunno
[09:25:25] <mase-tech> look at the rails
[09:25:38] <XXCoder> yeah pretty decent one
[09:25:49] <mase-tech> He uses a perpendicular alu profile with v groove bearings
[09:25:50] <XXCoder> but if base flexs its still problemic
[09:26:13] <XXCoder> well it seems decent design
[09:26:27] <mase-tech> He has implements a lot of adjustment scews
[09:26:49] <mase-tech> this is something difficult for me when I construct it
[09:26:55] -!- skunksleep [skunksleep!~AndChat14@str-broadband-ccmts-ws-26.dsl.airstreamcomm.net] has joined #linuxcnc
[09:27:00] <XXCoder> well
[09:27:08] <XXCoder> you could design a step down design
[09:27:11] <mase-tech> but the solution for the rails seems quite nice
[09:27:17] <XXCoder> cheap so you can make better cnc with it
[09:27:23] <mase-tech> yes
[09:27:33] <XXCoder> after its done, strip rails and so on from old one move to new
[09:27:34] <mase-tech> it is more a educational thing
[09:27:38] <mase-tech> i want to learn
[09:27:49] <mase-tech> but it would be nice if the machine is useful :D
[09:27:54] <XXCoder> ndeed
[09:28:02] <XXCoder> first version is good enough to make cnc machine
[09:28:09] <mase-tech> so I want to cut wood in the first step
[09:28:14] <XXCoder> then you has decent cnc made machine
[09:28:41] <XXCoder> suggest make box type cnc machine, using "boxes" on sides and top of gantry
[09:28:56] <XXCoder> very easy to build, and after that you can reuse wood
[09:29:11] <mase-tech> can u like an example
[09:29:24] <XXCoder> hmm lets see if I can find that big cnc router example
[09:30:58] -!- archivist [archivist!~archivist@host81-149-189-98.in-addr.btopenworld.com] has joined #linuxcnc
[09:32:22] <XXCoder> closest example I can find

[09:32:31] <XXCoder> difference is that sides and top is just boxes
[09:32:37] <XXCoder> very simple to make
[09:32:53] <XXCoder> its not like it will be perment heh
[09:34:10] <mase-tech> How did he made the rails ?
[09:34:35] <mase-tech> a I understand
[09:34:35] <XXCoder> hmm not sure looks like stuff from hardware store lol
[09:34:53] <XXCoder> you probably want to buy same rails you want to use in final cnc anyway
[09:35:26] <mase-tech> there is a difference in the 2 designs
[09:35:47] <mase-tech> mine has alu profiles with v groove bearings
[09:36:21] <mase-tech> your suggested has a steel profile (
[09:37:24] <mase-tech> I need to know how he did the rails
[09:37:30] <XXCoder> nah not design suggestion just showing how gantry is made, kind of similiar as design I was talking about
[09:37:40] <mase-tech> ok
[09:37:50] <XXCoder> hmm though I have made a design i ultimately did not use
[09:37:52] <XXCoder> hold on a sec
[09:39:49] <XXCoder> mase-tech:

[09:39:56] <XXCoder> see the box design for gantry?
[09:40:10] <XXCoder> it should be very rigid
[09:40:16] <mase-tech> y
[09:40:18] <XXCoder> though design do have flaws
[09:40:19] <mase-tech> I like it
[09:40:23] <XXCoder> base is too weak
[09:40:50] <XXCoder> bottom distance is little too short, meaning gantry might be bit loose X wise
[09:41:33] <XXCoder> I never did design in the motor mounts lol
[09:41:41] <XXCoder> see black block? thats where ballscrews go
[09:42:15] <XXCoder> anyway
[09:42:25] <XXCoder> it should be good enough to cut cnc parts out of wood
[09:42:34] <XXCoder> then you can have really nice machine when done

[10:13:30] <XXCoder> no, one with less paint
[10:15:56] <_methods> they look about the same size so either one
[10:16:05] <_methods> looks like they would both fit in the garage
[10:16:18] <XXCoder> hopefully with usual stuff too

[10:17:05] <_methods> that one is kinda small too looks like

[10:17:23] <XXCoder> approx anyway, compare with barrel there
[10:18:43] <archivist> my hobbing machine is 1" max that is a bit bigger not a lot

[10:24:56] <archivist> but mine came without change wheels
[10:25:07] <archivist> linuxcnc to the rescue
[10:26:53] <_methods> probably be easier for me to find parts for that one
[10:28:25] <_methods> probably not as many mikrons on this side of the pond
[10:28:32] <_methods> plenty of barber colman though
[10:28:56] <archivist> just add an encoder to the spindle at the change wheel area input (cutter spindle), and a drive into the blank spindle from the output
[10:29:36] <archivist> I tried getting the manual for mine but there was a paywall for a scanned copy

[10:30:46] <archivist> I cut nothing to make it cnc
[10:30:57] <_methods> oh really?
[10:31:31] <archivist> just needs shaft couplings to the gear shaft ends
[10:32:02] <archivist> I used the door hinge threaded holes for the bracket mounting

[16:58:31] <JT-Shop> and the j1900 LAN Chipset Realtek
[16:59:40] <pcw_home> Yeah the Intel driver is quite fancy and has many settings (and its IRQ defaults are bad for real time)
[17:01:29] <pcw_home> basically the default setting says when you get a RX packet interrupt, dont tell the boss but
[17:01:30] <pcw_home> wait around twiddling your thumbs for 100 usec or so in case another packet is comming

[17:02:06] <lair82> Thats the same board I'm using on two machining centers
[17:02:51] <lair82> pcw_home, is that ethtool command what turns off the IRQ coalescing?
[17:03:09] <JT-Shop> what processor are you using?
[17:03:24] <lair82> Intel G3258
[17:03:38] <pcw_home> It has the best Preempt-RT latency that Ive seen
[17:04:00] <JT-Shop> that's not too bad $70
[17:04:02] <pcw_home> sudo ethtool -C ethN rx-usecs 0
[17:04:49] <pcw_home> I think any of the G3xxx Pentiums will work similarly
[17:04:50] <maxcnc> JT-Shop: is the j1900 up ?
[17:06:11] <JT-Shop> yes been up for a day or so running a 7i92
[17:07:03] <maxcnc> cool steppers or servo
[17:07:43] <JT-Shop> nothing at the moment
[17:09:26] <maxcnc> ok
[17:09:56] <JT-Shop> soon as I get some 7i78's in stock I'm going to set up a gantry and learn the new gantry component
[17:09:58] <maxcnc> woudt be god to test a 7i76E against a 7i92H and a 7i76

[17:18:34] <JT-Shop> is there any advantage to run steppers with a pid and velocity?
[17:19:26] <pcw_home> well... its a bit complicated
[17:20:10] <JT-Shop> the advantage or setting it up?
[17:20:27] <pcw_home> The built in position mode driver does not deal with latency very well (it basically can go crazy)
[17:22:16] <maxcnc> http://linuxcnc.org/docs/html/man/man9/gantry.9.html
[17:22:23] <pcw_home> so when I started with Ethernet (which may have ~300 usec Ethernet latency spikes on a slow machine)
[17:22:25] <pcw_home> I found I could get much better performance by using PID feedback and stepgens set to velocity mode
[17:23:10] <JT-Shop> so it is for the Ethernet cards, the PCI/PCIe cards don't need it?
[17:23:20] <JT-Shop> maxcnc: yes that is it
[17:23:33] <pcw_home> But after the DPLL was added the PID is less needed unless you want the absolute best step generation
[17:25:03] <JT-Shop> thanks
[17:25:34] <maxcnc> the home is only performed if all homing is complete as i understand
[17:25:44] <pcw_home> Even on PCI/PCIE you need to work around the driver going crazy by limiting the stepgen_maxaccel number (which should not be required)
[17:25:45] <maxcnc> as i only can tilt 4mm
[17:26:25] <maxcnc> i will try soon
[17:27:55] <maxcnc> im off Gn8 tomorrow will be the best day in germany so far even summer day temps are expected
[17:27:59] <JT-Shop> as I understand the gantry component both axes home at the same time when one home switch trips that side stops and the other side continues
[17:28:05] <maxcnc> but snow back on sunday
[17:29:17] <maxcnc> JT-Shop: thats find but do i need to put the switch in 0.01 position to home or can i make diferent home start points
[17:29:55] <JT-Shop> I don't understand the question
[17:30:01] <maxcnc> lets say x1 is Zero and y2 homeswich is 0.26mm off
[17:30:13] <maxcnc> is this corrected
[17:30:29] <JT-Shop> ah switches not exactly the same place
[17:30:39] <maxcnc> i think no so i need to get the homeswitches triggering at the real home
[17:31:16] <maxcnc> figgering out the pos is qite a challange on not visibel swiches
[17:31:59] <maxcnc> its also good thing to get more corner straigtness
[17:32:06] <maxcnc> 90deg XY
[17:32:19] <JT-Shop> I don't see any kind of offset that can be set so the switch point needs to be even
[17:32:26] <maxcnc> as yiou can offset the X2
[17:34:39] <maxcnc> Workflow : X moving towards swiches X1orX2 triggers stop that motor move the other motor till it triggers move X1 to the ofset point then HOME
[17:35:31] <maxcnc> with Home i mean set the X to the Homeofset then move the X axis to Home
[17:36:05] <maxcnc> with home_final_vel
[17:36:26] <maxcnc> woudt be a real good workflow
[17:37:15] <maxcnc> on gantry componet it coudt also bee offset in both X1 and X2 so you can correct the Whole system
[17:37:45] <maxcnc> as your frame is like we saw some in Brazil and welding freeks did

[17:57:26] <mase-tech> I want to build a similar one
[17:57:44] <mase-tech> for wood and MAYBE aluminium
[17:58:16] <mase-tech> I like this design because he uses alu profiles for rails
[17:58:48] <mase-tech> and v groove bearings this make the cnc cheap
[18:04:28] * JT-Shop can't click on videos
[18:04:51] <mase-tech> ?

[18:07:32] <JT-Shop> very limited bandwidth
[18:08:49] <mase-tech> In termas of materials ?
[18:09:01] <mase-tech> Or do u mean the size ?
[18:09:07] <Tensaiteki> JT, the videos show a typical made-of-plywood gantry router with ACME screws, V-bearings on aluminum angle, and a regular wood-router spindle
[18:10:12] <Tensaiteki> I suspect the spindle will go too fast for cutting aluminum dry, and you can't really use coolant if your machine is made of wood
[18:10:50] <Tensaiteki> also, hardened steel bearings will wear out the aluminum rails very quickly
[18:12:28] <mase-tech> Tensaiteki: he uses the aluprofile in diffrent way for rail
[18:12:39] <JT-Shop> I see
[18:13:11] <mase-tech> So there will be more wear out in this way
[18:13:42] <mase-tech> I like the idea how he did
[18:13:55] <mase-tech> but we could change the materials

[18:15:29] <mase-tech> the v groove bearings i found are these
[18:15:57] <mase-tech> I don t know if they are good enough
[18:16:20] <mase-tech> the ID of the bearings are small therefor I could use more
[18:16:49] <mase-tech> and instead of the alu profile I could use a steel profil
[18:17:12] <mase-tech> or brass
[18:17:25] <mase-tech> but I must search there
[18:18:01] <mase-tech> for motor I am looking for nema 17
[18:18:21] <mase-tech> there I need a board and the driver
[18:19:22] <Tensaiteki> well, any time you have an inverted V shape riding on a square-ish cross section, you will have rapid wear.
[18:20:08] <Tensaiteki> using steel angle will wear slower, but inexpensive angle will be hot-rolled and very rough/imprecise
[18:21:01] <mase-tech> Yeah I would like

[18:26:46] <CaptHindsight> the lowest cost, rigid, and accurate solution is to use polymer granite

[18:35:03] <CaptHindsight> mase-tech: so go that route
[18:35:47] <CaptHindsight> the 2nd mill casting job wasn't the best

[20:54:37] <evil_ren> hmm
[20:55:10] <evil_ren> guys how hard is it to convert a 3 axis mill configuration to a 3 axis lathe configuration?

[20:55:27] <Jymmm> evil_ren: a file?
[20:55:35] <evil_ren> right?
[20:55:49] <XXCoder> evil_ren: can 0put stock on spindle and use table as tool
[20:56:01] <evil_ren> i never really considered it, but doing the lathe trick on a mill with turning visuals in axis would be pretty neat
[20:56:03] <XXCoder> mounting tools directly on table
[20:56:11] <evil_ren> xxcoder: right thats what i was thinking
[20:56:35] <evil_ren> i was just going to kind of hack the gcode but then i realized i can prob setup a turning config for it
[20:56:36] <XXCoder> only flaw is that it cannot be secured both ends like on real lathe

[22:13:51] <evil_ren> zeeshan: rule of thumb in context of tool life?
[22:14:11] <zeeshan> i dunno
[22:14:23] <zeeshan> im reading a book and they were pushing the tool at 0.004" deflection
[22:14:23] <evil_ren> i finished roughing shit with waaaay more deflection than that on 1/8" HSS endmills, i wouldnt expect it to do it 10 times tho
[22:14:44] <zeeshan> im trying to optimize the cutting parameters
[22:14:48] <zeeshan> i got a lot of these still to go
[22:14:54] <zeeshan> i cant spend 25 min per part
[22:14:58] <zeeshan> itll never finish!
[22:15:02] <zeeshan> ive got it down to 12 now
[22:15:16] <evil_ren> i mean any hard numbers in this context is usually just advice, that deflection cant be appropriate for 1/8 to 3" diamater tools
[22:15:32] <zeeshan> youre right
[22:15:40] <zeeshan> because they'll have different strain amounts
[22:15:47] <evil_ren> even the bible starts the feeds and feeds chapter like, yeah this is all meaningless in context of your machine, your work, your tool
[22:15:50] <zeeshan> i guess they should be specifying strain values
[22:15:53] <zeeshan> not deflection
[22:15:56] <enleth> PCW: do you actually keep track of the exact make/model/revision of mainboards you test 5i25 and 6i25 on?
[22:16:12] <evil_ren> it might not scale, or they might be talking about a specific job
[22:16:17] <zeeshan> evil_ren: im so far off fswizard rifght now
[22:16:19] <zeeshan> that its not even funny
[22:16:31] <zeeshan> fswizard with chip thinning was recommending 38 ipm
[22:16:35] <zeeshan> im at 3 times that
[22:16:38] <zeeshan> almost
[22:16:53] <evil_ren> this is all for some sort of nominal unstated tool life tho
[22:17:06] <zeeshan> i dont see tool life being affected
[22:17:13] <zeeshan> as badly
[22:17:17] <zeeshan> yea feedrate has a effect on it
[22:17:36] <zeeshan> like ive made about 60 parts with these settings
[22:17:47] <zeeshan> if i break an end mill every 60 parts im happy
[22:18:08] <evil_ren> standard speeds and feeds that dont seem insane, i always assume some ridiculous long tool life, like 100s of hours, ive pushed tools way harder
[22:18:12] <zeeshan> cause 12 min vs 25 min is a huge savings in labour
[22:18:21] <evil_ren> because my shit doesnt spin at 75krpm and i want to finish the jobs in this century
[22:18:33] <zeeshan> have you snapped a brand new tool justby pushing it too fast?
[22:18:34] <zeeshan> feedrate wise
[22:18:58] <evil_ren> yes but i dont think this is very useful in context of your machine
[22:19:06] <evil_ren> like, apples to apples comparison
[22:19:37] <zeeshan> i cant find a good published value for the maximum elastic strain
[22:19:44] <evil_ren> even with same tooling, the stress from machine rigidity is going to be diff ballpark
[22:19:57] <evil_ren> because its prob not super consistent
[22:20:52] <evil_ren> like, tooling geometry isnt simple so you cant throw standard equations at it, and different stock and geometry and heat treatment between manufacturers gonna affect it
[22:21:10] <PCW> enleth: no, not sure why we would care
[22:21:17] <zeeshan> should be able to get a range of values though!
[22:21:51] <evil_ren> yeah that seems fair, i would imagine theres a textbook or something that attemnpts to quantify it
[22:22:00] <evil_ren> didnt you take a tooling geometry class?
[22:22:02] <zeeshan> i did

[22:22:22] <zeeshan> too many :P
[22:22:27] <zeeshan> im reading one during bed time now
[22:22:41] <evil_ren> well its prob like, half a paragraph somewhere in those 2000 pages
[22:23:43] <enleth> PCW: a list like that could kinda help buy something that works, I guess. Unless, of course, it wouldn't because some dumbass motherboard maker changed something with no outside indication and a customer gets angry at you when it doesn't work.
[22:23:47] <evil_ren> if its not there, my guess is every time theyve tried to quantify it across manufacturers, materials, and cut parameters, they couldnt make sense of the data in a way that would make a nice graph
[22:24:14] <evil_ren> which would be surprising to me
[22:24:21] <PCW> why would you expect it to not work?
[22:25:04] <enleth> PCW: screwed up firmware at the EC level doing something dumb with unmaskable interrupts, for example
[22:25:44] <enleth> PCW: which is the whole point of asking for an exact make and model of a nice motherboard for CNC in the first place, I think
[22:26:34] <evil_ren> yeah im always worried about getting a mobo where they had intern laying out the secondary circuits for the support chips
[22:26:58] <enleth> interrupts, or power saving, or whatever it is that motherboard designers and firmware writers screw up that makes latency unpredictable
[22:27:31] <evil_ren> intern forgot the pullup
[22:29:04] <gregcnc> some references say specific cutting power decreases with increased chip thickness
[22:29:22] <evil_ren> heh, more leverage?

[23:19:43] <enleth> heh, just realized I could make a selectable power limit for the VFD on the mill
[23:20:04] <enleth> with a key or a card needed to lift it
[23:20:16] <enleth> although that might make more sense on a lathe
[23:21:48] <enleth> to let people who received all the training necessary but still don't have much experience use the thing and worry a bit less about getting pulled in and twisted into a pretzel
[23:23:08] <enleth> wouldn't be entirely useless on a mill though, I've got the VFD's error output wired into the e-stop circuit, and it does trip it on motor overload
[23:24:42] <enleth> so a tool-on-something crash would indeed make it stop much quicker if the VFD was told to limit the motor's power at 500W or so
