[00:58:55] <ReadError> hey
[00:59:02] <ReadError> who first mass produced the car?
[00:59:04] <ReadError> 'murica
[01:00:39] <Valen> the change happened well before the car
[01:01:04] <Valen> around the era of your "war of independence"
[01:02:14] <r00t4rd3d> probably Benz
[01:02:21] -!- skorasaurus has quit [Quit: left the building.]
[01:03:07] <r00t4rd3d> and was in Germany
[01:03:43] <r00t4rd3d> Ford was not the first to mass produce cars.
[01:04:22] <andypugh> Selden invented the car.
[01:05:15] <tjb1> Would turning a faucet on stop the pipe from freezing?
[01:05:23] <andypugh> Oh, no, wait. Selden _patented_ the car. Seems to be considered the same thing in the US.
[01:05:41] <Jymmm> tjb1: Yes, just barly let it drip

[01:06:19] <Jymmm> tjb1: still should instulate it where it's exposed outdoors if you can. even wrapping a towr around it
[01:06:27] <ReadError> ford made the production line
[01:06:28] <Jymmm> towel
[01:06:42] <ReadError> so he was the first mass producer
[01:06:53] <tjb1> Its under the house, older plumbing…the new ones under the house have heated wrap and insulation
[01:07:23] <Jymmm> tjb1: Ok, just let it drip a bit.
[01:08:41] <Valen> you need to understand how it stops it
[01:08:47] <ReadError> cutting some "XX Garolite"
[01:08:53] <ReadError> seems to cut pretty decent
[01:09:03] <ReadError> next im going to try this "Machinable Garolite"
[01:09:11] <Jymmm> tjb1: If you got a bucket, at least try to recover as much water as you can, plants, washing whatever.
[01:09:26] <tjb1> I'm not at home, telling my mom to do it
[01:09:49] <Jymmm> same thing
[01:09:51] <ReadError> they mail your printer tjb1 ?
[01:09:56] <tjb1> It will be here friday
[01:12:00] <Jymmm> Hmmm, disconnect the fuel filter, and feed the N2 tank into the fuel line WITHOUT a regulator =)
[01:12:21] <andypugh> ReadError: Ah, phenolic composites. The big brand here is Tufnol, and they have different types designated "Whale Brand", "Carp Brand", "Vole brand" http://www.tufnol.com/tufnol/default.asp?id=21
[01:13:07] -!- plushy has quit [Quit: Leaving.]
[01:13:42] <ReadError> andypugh, yea, ive mostly done G10
[01:13:43] <Jymmm> OH! I know... pressurize the fuel tank from a nitrogen one =)
[01:13:50] <ReadError> it cuts nice, but this is some 1/4" thick stuff
[01:14:03] <ReadError> i could see several endmills getting toasted in the process
[01:14:25] -!- andypugh has quit [Quit: andypugh]
[01:14:29] <Jymmm> paper phonelic... that shit is a butch to cut!!!
[01:14:35] <Jymmm> bitch
[01:14:53] <ReadError> well i can get it to cut decent
[01:14:54] <Jymmm> I took a torch to it for 5m, just chared slightly.
[01:15:02] <ReadError> i just destroy endmills ;)
[01:15:10] <Jymmm> yeah, need carbon
[01:15:14] <ReadError> so ive been using $3 ones from ebay so i dont feel bad about tossing them
[01:15:44] <ReadError> they actually work fairly well
[01:15:47] <Jymmm> I just use the piece I have as a non conductive heat barrier
[01:15:55] <Jymmm> too expensive =)
[01:17:03] <ReadError> cranking along at 20IPM on this
[01:17:10] <ReadError> i could probably go higher maybe
[01:17:39] <ReadError> low DOC though, its my aluminum toolpath
[01:17:43] <Jymmm> man this sucks... I can get a in-tank fuel pump for $25 off ebay, but if it dies in 30d, I have to drop the tank AGAIN.
[01:18:11] <Jymmm> And I cant seem to find external one, and dont' know if it'll fail emissions visual inspection.
[01:18:45] <Valen> there is a special way of sharpening stuff to cut fiberglass
[01:19:00] <Valen> i don't know what it is but my dad used to work in fiberglass for 30 years
[01:19:26] <Valen> if he "sharpened" a drill it'd do a buttload of holes, a new one from the box would do 50-100
[01:19:57] <Jymmm> My glass drillbits are blunt edges
[01:20:10] <Jymmm> glass/concrete/ceramic
[01:20:13] <ReadError> someone told me, rotozip bits
[01:20:18] <Valen> something like that as i vuagley recall
[01:20:22] <ReadError> with the little bump style teeth
[01:20:36] <Valen> (garolite is just fiberglass basically)
[01:20:41] <Jymmm> ReadError: those are abrasive cutters, kinda icky
[01:21:19] <Valen> most of the cutting of finished parts they did was with a die grinder with a diamond blade in it
[01:21:27] <Jymmm> I just use LOTS of water and take my time and I get a perfect holes.
[01:21:48] <Jymmm> Do use a backer so it doesn't chipout the back though.
[01:21:59] <Valen> masking tape ftw!
[01:22:18] <Jymmm> Not for ceramic though, needs to be solid and flush
[01:22:36] <Valen> I have milled glass on our mill ;->
[01:22:52] <Valen> used a diamond burr and did it in a water bath
[01:23:06] <Jymmm> this isn't diamond
[01:23:23] <Jymmm> it's a spade bit

[02:09:02] <ReadError> well i have that decided
[02:09:11] <ReadError> light aluminum, g10 and CF
[02:09:21] <Tom_itx> if you buy a router and really wanted a mill you will be dissapointed
[02:09:27] <ReadError> well i got a small mill
[02:09:36] <ReadError> its basically for 2.5d stuff
[02:09:44] <ReadError> very light on the Z axis
[02:09:56] <ReadError> all the cutting itself is done on 2d
[02:11:16] <ReadError> basically i want to lay down around 2 24x24" sheets

[02:18:42] <Jymmm> Also, on the xylotex it would stall on high speed travel. But that's only 24VDC and the motors are good for at least 50VDC and the Parkers do that just fine.

[03:38:48] <r00t4rd3d> still I dont like that design one bit.
[03:39:23] <AR__> just the motor?
[03:39:41] <r00t4rd3d> that, how its stacking up

[03:40:13] <AR__> there's enough room
[03:41:21] <AR__> if i get a bigger motor i would probably flip the motor around though
[03:42:05] <AR__> i was testing the axis and i already crashed, technically :P
[03:42:37] <AR__> see that one long bolt i put in at the end of the rail to keep the bearings from sliding off when i didnt have the ballscrew on?
[03:43:09] <AR__> i was testing and jogged into it and was wondering why my ballscrew was pulling out of the end bearing blocks......
[03:44:59] <r00t4rd3d> where you getting these build plans from?

[04:00:22] <AR__> i think it will be an excellent design for the price
[04:00:57] <AR__> i could have saved money if i knew what i needed and ordered things at the same time
[04:05:18] <r00t4rd3d> archivist, I dont like where the x motor is, dont like how the y axis is designed with pillow blocks acting as inverted rail supports, ummmmmm
[04:05:40] <tjb1> r00t4rd3d: did you fix your messy wiring yet?
[04:06:04] <r00t4rd3d> i took my machine all apart yesterday cause of the cold and brought it inside.

[04:08:19] <archivist> it is incomplete

[04:12:05] <r00t4rd3d> sure
[04:12:10] <r00t4rd3d> he has some nice parts too
[04:12:41] <archivist> Tecan, a slit and any wide band detector
[04:12:58] <Tecan> awesome
[04:13:36] <archivist> Tecan, I have a motorised version of that setup
[04:13:59] <Tecan> what did you use for a laser ?
[04:14:24] <archivist> its a spectrometer, no laser involved
[04:15:01] <Tecan> its for analyzing substances correct ?
[04:15:18] <Tecan> guess you could use any light source
[04:16:35] <archivist> well for substances the light matters, also depends on technique, flourescent, reflection, transmissive
[04:17:08] <Tecan> what do you use it for ?
[04:17:31] <archivist> it was cheap on fleabay, just to play with

[09:51:44] <archivist> not looked hard enough? or specials are made for that angle
[09:52:59] <archivist> or the machine tool leans over a bit so any cutter less than 55 can be used
[09:53:42] <mrsun> im in sweden ... sweden sucks :P
[09:53:54] <mrsun> if i find one i guess it will cost me about 200x more then everyone else has to pay :P
[09:54:16] <archivist> use 60 or 45
[09:54:53] <mrsun> wellt he machine already has 55
[09:54:57] <mrsun> =)
[09:55:31] <archivist> or, what I do, just make a cutter up

[14:37:03] <mhaberler> for Y I really see only two major contenders: protobuf and JSON
[14:37:23] <mhaberler> + protobuf: strong typing, fast, a gazillion of bindings, introspection possible
[14:37:47] <mhaberler> - for protobuf: no good support for direct Web interaction; needs IDL definition/parsing step (both advantage and disadvantage)
[14:38:01] <mhaberler> + for json: Web compatible, no IDL step necessary
[14:38:31] <mhaberler> - for json: speed (not sure); loose typing; much less thorough language support; introspection?
[14:39:36] <Tecan> http://i.imgur.com/m3raE8V.jpg
[14:39:55] <mhaberler> as for middleware and web compatibility, I havent found one which is web friendly and sufficiently capable as a backend interaction evhicle as well; very hesitant to consider Websockets for that
[14:40:49] <Jymmm> Why all this web stuff?
[14:41:17] <Jymmm> It's a stateless protocol, and lots of overhead.
[14:41:33] <Jymmm> not something a RTOS wants to see.
[14:41:36] <mhaberler> when thinking about a future middleware choice I do not think its a good idea to exclude the option
[14:41:47] <Jymmm> Why?
[14:41:50] <mhaberler> exactly, which is why I am proposing a split between rtos and gui
[14:42:17] <mhaberler> it is entirely conceivable for me to do a linuxcnc gui in html5/webgl
[14:42:28] <mhaberler> not that I'm doing it
[14:42:45] <mhaberler> I'm just considering how to leave that option open as easy as possible
[14:43:43] <Jymmm> Well, there are so many interfaces already in emc that could be utilized, there's even keystick that could be done via telnet (a stateful protocol) and just create a nice term iface
[14:44:18] <Jymmm> mhaberler: Here's how I see it after all these years...
[14:44:27] <mhaberler> the issue is that _all_ of these assume a common memory model
[14:44:43] <mhaberler> all ears:
[14:47:21] -!- Gene346 has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
[14:47:21] <Jymmm> mhaberler: Web (http) is old, very old by today's standards. HTML5 is still just built upon it and everything is pseudo "stateful" using ajax and bloated like hell xml for "two way" interchange. What we really need today is a stateful protocol and new/revived (?) interchanges from the old school days. They worked, even on slow connections........
[14:47:29] -!- Gene34 [Gene34!~Gene34@209.159.206.53] has joined #linuxcnc
[14:48:04] <mhaberler> That is out of the question
[14:48:13] <Jymmm> While a "browser" is concientant, it's not the only thing out there. just common
[14:48:31] <Jymmm> what, telnet?
[14:49:05] <mhaberler> I agree on the stateful proto question
[14:49:09] <mhaberler> I was more thinking about a common serialisation method; assume for instance we chose protobuf
[14:49:33] <Jymmm> mhaberler: Have you ever looked at this yet? http://www.json.org/
[14:49:33] <mhaberler> and a UI would talk JSON - means you force a transcoding step. That's really all that is to it.
[14:49:48] <mhaberler> sure
[14:49:51] <Jymmm> JSON isn't perfect, but it is clean.
[14:50:19] <Jymmm> and even human readable which can be a good thing for debugging/optimization
[14:50:32] <mhaberler> thats's a plus, yes
[14:50:41] <Jymmm> can toss in gzip
[14:50:50] <mhaberler> quite a big one actually
[14:51:27] <Jymmm> If you get really sneaky and LARGE datasets, there is SQLite too,
[14:51:39] <Jymmm> and it has a text dump option
[14:51:49] <mhaberler> I dont see that as a serialisation option though
[14:52:22] <Jymmm> No, but more like a js is loaded
[14:52:47] <Jymmm> it being linked, loaded in the background, then executed.
[14:52:50] <mhaberler> I had looked into it, and it is of questionable value as config storage, because it is really single-process only
[14:53:19] <mhaberler> (that was what I had envisaged it for - tooltable, ini etc )
[14:53:38] <Jymmm> cached content that's fairly consistant
[14:54:34] <mhaberler> hm, 'fairly consisten' sounds a bit like 'more correct' ;-)
[14:55:04] <Jymmm> well, if units=metric, that's probably consistant.
[14:55:25] <mhaberler> anyway, the question really revolved around JSON suitability for serialisation; anything you can say wrt speed over other methods?
[14:55:26] <Jymmm> MaxX=24, etc
[14:56:12] <mhaberler> I would think the parsers by now are optimized for speed quite a bit (or so I'd hope)
[14:56:44] <mhaberler> probably boilds down to doing a bunch of measurements; otherwise it'd be guesswork
[14:56:46] <Jymmm> mhaberler: http://www.ape-project.org/
[14:59:45] <mhaberler> that really includes an RPC or messaging layer which I'd avoid importing - there are way too many of those and by ticking the wrong box you'll be in the pits fast which is why I'm splitting the problem (possibly) at the serialisation layer
[15:00:36] <mhaberler> I'd separate the question how a message is wrapped/transported from the question how it is encoded
[15:01:35] <mhaberler> also, there are lots of existing message formats which need to be dealt with (aka backwards compatibility) since a big-bang change is almost impossible
[15:01:58] <mhaberler> or particulary desirable for that matter
[15:02:50] <mhaberler> any credible contenders to JSON in the web arena?
[15:03:34] <Jymmm> I like KISS, JSON follows that methogology. Others, SOAP (xml based), etc are so bloatware anymore.
[15:04:46] <mhaberler> oh. I fully agreed. Thats a real dog.
[15:04:46] <Jymmm> I have a strong hatred of anything XML based.
[15:04:46] <mhaberler> I completely exclude that not only for the 'dog' reason, it is culturally incompaible
[15:05:08] -!- ravenlock [ravenlock!~ravenlock@enlightenment/developer/ravenlock] has joined #linuxcnc
[15:05:20] <Jymmm> JSON is clean, can have structured datasets (arrays), among other things, and adopted pretty much across the board.
[15:05:37] <Jymmm> So you're not locked into somethign that might fubar/change in the future
[15:06:57] <Jymmm> and can handle unicode if so desired.
[15:08:21] <mhaberler> well actually since protobuf is strongly typed and has an compilable IDL, it just occured to me that there might very well be an automatic translation mechanism to/from JSON if thats needed. I wasnt the first to have that idea: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2544580/is-there-a-standard-mapping-between-json-and-protocol-buffers
[15:08:36] <Jymmm> mhaberler: Customize yout own patser =) http://techblog.procurios.nl/k/618/news/view/14605/14863/How-do-I-write-my-own-parser-for-JSON.html
[15:09:08] <mhaberler> nah, its gotta be fully automatic or it wont happen
[15:09:47] <mhaberler> my vision about parsers stops at 'apt-get install foo' or 'import bar'
[15:11:11] <mhaberler> I think there's not really a way around doing the math: like encode EMCStatus in protobuf and JSON, and see how that goes
[15:11:36] <Jymmm> mhaberler: Those that live on the bleeding edge, WILL get cut. JSON just works, and on a solid foundation. That in itself can pay off in it's in gold for unseen issues. Not everyone has a 50% staff of PhDs to get your ass out of trouble.
[15:11:46] -!- chillly has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[15:11:52] <mhaberler> exactly
[15:12:38] <Jymmm> So if you lose a little in perforamnce and gain in reliability/stablitity, there ya go.
[15:12:40] <mhaberler> I am quite conservative on these things - 'bleeding edge' is a status field afaic, not a selling point
[15:13:09] <Jymmm> But that is not the Developers way =)
[15:13:27] <Jymmm> Release, get feedback, patch, repeat.
[15:13:33] <mhaberler> thats why I stick out as a knucklehead ;)
[15:13:52] -!- psha[work] has quit [Quit: Lost terminal]
[15:14:06] <Jymmm> Release often good bad or ugly, get feedback, patch as requested, repeat.
[15:14:07] <mhaberler> if it is between json and protobuf, in terms of reliability I would say the loose tyoing in JSON is the largest potential to blow your leg off
[15:14:14] <mhaberler> typing
[15:14:58] <mhaberler> I saw some work on JSON schema verification but it didnt strike me as industry-grade
[15:15:00] <Jymmm> Plus there are enough tools/libs out there for JSON you dont have to be reinventing the wheel to get going.
[15:15:51] <mhaberler> well sure, that's the whole point with both of them; and while at it, get language bindings for every relevant language with it (big downside of NML for instance)

[15:16:49] <mhaberler> its got to have fully automatic language bindings, we just dont have the time to do things like using the Python C API any more, which is atrocious to start with
[15:17:22] <mhaberler> do you have any experience with JSON type checking/verification?
[15:18:28] <mhaberler> it is clearly an advantage to be able to write a message in a text editor, but editors are a bit too patient on errors
[15:18:47] <Jymmm> typing checking?! you're funny =)
[15:19:00] <mhaberler> yes, type checking
[15:19:11] <mhaberler> they dont do that over in web land, right?

[20:00:09] <skunkworks_> andypugh, Nice work - A) how much backlash is in the hex and how fast can you spin it?
[20:00:56] <andypugh> The hex has no backlash that I can feel (though it must have some). But with the 40:1 ratio on the worm it isn't terribly relevant.
[20:01:29] <andypugh> How much wobble is there in the pin of the dividing disc normally?
[20:05:00] <skunkworks_> not much? I have not used a dividing head in years...
[20:05:20] <skunkworks_> so - when are you making the first gear?
[20:07:23] <andypugh> The first thing will actually be a T5 timing belt pulley. And it will be a few weeks as I am disappearing to foreign parts soon.
[20:08:04] <DaViruz_> volvo t5?
[20:08:27] <andypugh> No, it's a tooth form :-)

[20:21:39] <andypugh> JT-Shop: Yes
[20:22:01] <JT-Shop> nice work
[20:22:29] <andypugh> You see how I carefully arranged for the motor to be horizontal, then found that when fully tightened up I needed a completely different position?
[20:22:36] <andypugh> Bah!
[20:22:47] <JT-Shop> what was that about?
[20:24:02] <andypugh> The bore in the housing appears not to be exactly square to the outer face, so when I tighten up the eccentric screws, the worm moves deeper into mesh..

[20:27:14] <DaViruz_> or ist it just my imagination?

[20:28:02] <mrsun> just started watching it :P

[21:01:49] <JT-Shop> I like the little Ridgid vac as it is somewhat quieter than my shop vac brand
[21:02:11] <JT-Shop> they should have the dba on the label
[21:04:31] <andypugh> DaViruz_: My lathe can't turn slowly enough for the stepper-powered X-axis to keep up, so I had to twirl the spindle manually. Myford types do that quite reqularly, apparently.
[21:08:36] <JT-Shop> it is so nice that LinuxCNC can turn the spindle off when the file is done
[21:09:18] <skunkworks_> and unplug its self?
[21:09:33] <JT-Shop> the cat does that

[23:29:01] <andypugh> Triangles.
[23:29:54] <andypugh> What direction is the force?
[23:30:15] <ReadError> in flight, if its laying down flat on a table, it would be up
[23:30:16] <Jymmm> andypugh: It's the ars od one of those quad RC copters
[23:30:28] <ReadError> but theres also some torsion
[23:30:49] <ReadError> that arm is very strong, but im trying other materials which have a bit more flex
[23:30:54] <Jymmm> andypugh: It's one of those quad RC copters, those are the arms and the motors/props go in the round end.
[23:31:22] <andypugh> They appear to have the section the wrong way round, realy.
[23:31:50] <ReadError> what section ?
[23:32:01] <andypugh> Whatever you go for might as well be much deeper than it is wide, as that is the way the force is.
