Back
[00:00:17] <skunkworks__> hooked a 1 micron linear scale into the pluto today. Seemed to work
[00:00:24] <skunkworks__> well - it did confirm that there is a problem with it..
[00:00:36] <skunkworks__> *it did seem to confirm
[00:01:04] <andypugh> With the scale or the Pluto?
[00:01:23] -!- Nick001-Shop has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[00:01:54] <skunkworks__> scale
[00:03:16] <skunkworks__> I could slide it slowly back and forth and indicate it. the actual position would vary up to .010"
[00:04:21] -!- WillenCMD [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[00:04:45] <skunkworks__> we have a new head coming... as it seems to do this over the whole travel. (plan to take it apart and clean it too - with the blessing of the scale company)
[00:04:55] <WillenCMD> this is such a vague question but, whats a good alternative to solidworks/solidcam, preferably open source or free

[00:07:27] <skunkworks__> it has galil motion control with amc drives
[00:09:10] <skunkworks__> it * large format exposing machine that exposes screens for screen printing
[00:15:40] -!- FredrikHson [[email protected]] has parted #linuxcnc
[00:18:50] <andypugh> WillenCMD: I don't think there are any _good_ alternatives, but freeCAD probably comes closest. Alibre is good for the price, but closed-source and windows-only.
[00:19:29] <Tom_itx> is rihno any good for this sort of thing?
[00:19:33] <Tom_itx> never used it myself
[00:19:41] <Tom_itx> probably not cheap either i dunno
[00:19:45] <Tom_itx> rhino
[00:19:50] <andypugh> You could have a look at AutoDesk Inventor Fusion, as that is free and rather slick (but also rather intended as a companion to Inventor)
[00:20:08] <andypugh> (free rather then Free, I should point out)
[00:21:25] <WillenCMD> rhino is great for 3dmodeling but dimiension's can be a pain
[00:21:37] <WillenCMD> thhey do have an add on

[00:24:23] <WillenCMD> off the coast of florida?
[00:24:45] <WillenCMD> sounds dangerous
[00:26:42] <andypugh> I have a fully-legit Inventor here.
[00:27:09] <WillenCMD> albre doesn't look that bad
[00:27:12] <WillenCMD> alibre*
[00:27:38] <andypugh> I think you can download a trial.

[00:35:51] <WillenCMD> wow solidworks professional is 5300, and solidcam is 5k to 15k, i never knew that
[00:36:09] <Tom_itx> yep
[00:36:10] <r00t4rd3d> solidworks sucks too
[00:36:20] <Tom_itx> driven by a limited market
[00:36:41] <WillenCMD> what, i love solidworks, it runs non stop on my computer, i would boot into it with no operating system if possible
[00:37:01] <r00t4rd3d> i didnt like it
[00:37:07] <WillenCMD> i designed my entire house in it, so that i could i design a deck
[00:37:50] <WillenCMD> i even did the grade on the lot
[00:38:24] <Tom_itx> did you cnc a model then?
[00:38:47] -!- andypugh has quit [Quit: andypugh]
[00:38:49] <WillenCMD> lol no, my wife looked at me and just shook her head when she sat down while i wasdoing it
[00:39:34] <WillenCMD> i should though, scale it down buy a block of wood and through into the VMC at work

[00:41:38] <WillenCMD> dries really nice :), you could almost make another solid block from it
[00:42:49] <WillenCMD> what kills me is the maintanence fee, what are they maintaining?
[00:43:05] <WillenCMD> i haven't updated solidworks and it still runs fine
[00:43:21] <r00t4rd3d> did u pirate it?
[00:43:49] <Tom_itx> we don't condone that here
[00:44:22] <r00t4rd3d> updating pirated software never normally ends up well
[00:44:38] <WillenCMD> i may have accidently done it, it was popup i didn't know what i was doing it said i wwon a free ipod and next thing i know i had soliworks
[00:44:50] <WillenCMD> crazy
[00:45:16] <WillenCMD> my dads compay has it so you could say im borrowing it
[00:45:27] <WillenCMD> company*

[00:45:56] <WillenCMD> true, bu that single computer s portable
[00:46:04] <WillenCMD> :)
[00:46:40] <WillenCMD> but i leave it there, the copy i have at home i found on the ground at a machine show
[00:46:55] <WillenCMD> someone most of dropped it
[00:48:01] <Tom_itx> and you hunted all over for the owner
[00:48:14] <Tom_itx> just happened they weren't anywhere around :)
[00:48:15] <r00t4rd3d> physically stealing it is probably more of a crime then digitally stealing it.
[00:48:35] <r00t4rd3d> more of a penalty atleast
[00:48:41] <cpresser> those things happen. you cant help it
[00:48:44] <Tom_itx> i wouldn't know
[00:49:22] <WillenCMD> funny story, a local teenage girl here found a money clip with $5000 dollars in it
[00:50:19] <WillenCMD> so here parent's told her to turn it into the police in case someone lost it(of course someone lost it). no one claimed it. So the police kept it, for the police department
[00:50:37] <WillenCMD> she learned a valuble lesson
[00:50:52] <WillenCMD> finder's keeper's looser's weeper's
[00:51:22] <WillenCMD> it was on the news, people were mad that the police department kept it
[00:51:33] <Tom_itx> well some feel they can live above the law and others just abuse their position
[00:52:05] <WillenCMD> i often think that the law is like the spoon in the matrix, extremely flexible
[00:52:16] <WillenCMD> :)
[00:52:54] <WillenCMD> thats why i got so many tickets when i was younger, i wanted to contribute to my local community
[00:53:05] <WillenCMD> im a giver what can i say
[00:56:54] <Jymmm> so are hookers with STD's to share.
[00:57:07] <djdelorie> there is no spoon
[00:57:33] <WillenCMD> so there are no laws?
[00:58:24] <Jymmm> only chaos
[00:58:34] <WillenCMD> how is it that even when my wife is at work, she controls what i watch on tv. Its b.s.
[00:59:01] <Jymmm> WillenCMD: You KNOW you like to watch the soaps... ADMIT IT!!!
[00:59:23] <WillenCMD> 2 shows recording at the same time, project runway and big brother so now i can't watch what i want
[00:59:51] <Jymmm> only one tv?
[01:00:03] <WillenCMD> there is a free 8 axis motion control software, yet my directTV box can only record 2 shows at once..... hmmmm something funny there
[01:00:35] <cpresser> WillenCMD: check VDR (www.tvdr.de). mine does record 8 streams :)
[01:00:51] <skunkworks__> WillenCMD: 9 axis
[01:01:18] <WillenCMD> Yesterday a major glitch in my gladevcp custom machine controller caused a crash that destroyed an 800 dollar encoder
[01:01:23] <Jymmm> WillenCMD: go strem something off the net
[01:01:28] <Jymmm> stream
[01:01:28] <WillenCMD> encoder i mean cutter
[01:02:08] <WillenCMD> of course its in its early early alpha testing, but the operator typed in 48 instead of .048
[01:02:21] <Jymmm> WillenCMD: Blame the QA Dept for it.
[01:02:27] <WillenCMD> he's more of the setup guy not the operator
[01:02:51] <Jymmm> Blame the creator of the custom setupthen
[01:03:43] <Jymmm> I hear he's a TV-Less slimeball anyway =)
[01:03:55] <WillenCMD> so my dad, the owner my company's first customer starts yelling at me, thats not going to work we can't have that... i looked at him and laughed we have 6 cnc lathes, 2 citizen swiss lathes. all are more than happy to run into the spindle or the machine wall when a wrong z move is given and those machines are $300k

[01:04:59] <alex4nder> yah, seriously
[01:05:51] <WillenCMD> i told him since this machine i designed for him was only $5000 and a cutter is $800 i can break 368.7 more cutters
[01:06:04] <WillenCMD> its only fair
[01:06:22] <alex4nder> what is he doing with it?
[01:06:37] <WillenCMD> its a gear shaper, shapes cluster gears and internal gears
[01:06:45] <alex4nder> ag
[01:06:46] <alex4nder> er ah
[01:07:20] <WillenCMD> the one they originally had was, hand operated and made about 6 - 15 parts an hour depending on the part
[01:07:42] <WillenCMD> the one today used to get 8 an hour, now it gets 22 and the operator is doing something secondary
[01:07:53] <WillenCMD> pretty good savings
[01:08:48] <WillenCMD> i have to admit thoug, it was my first and still is the guinea pig for new features, before i implement them on the other machines i designed for customer's who aren't my father

[01:25:49] <Jymmm> Tom_itx: only till dec =)
[01:26:15] <Tom_itx> Jymmm did you stock up in 1999 too?

[01:28:21] <Jymmm> I frown upon it actually
[01:28:56] <Tom_itx> money was made on it

[01:30:13] <Jymmm> Tom_itx: shitloads. But NOW, it's not so much Myan calendar crap as much as the emergency services that we've always dependant upon, just won't be there any more.
[01:31:05] <Jymmm> Tom_itx: Federal, State, County and City all say to have a kit. Why? Cause they know you'll be up shit creek =)

[01:32:22] <r00t4rd3d> well you have to take them for them to be effective.

[01:37:03] <Jymmm> just last month, the subway tunnel that goes under the Bay had a fire. Shut down the subway for 8 hours, and all the freeways were backed up for about 10 hours.

[01:40:53] <Jymmm> TheLarch: Lots of services/utilities not available or in limited supply.
[01:41:20] <Jymmm> TheLarch: This isn't a "what if", as much as a "will it happen again"

[02:08:25] <TheLarch> the import duty on ballscrews into the US is 3.8%, most machine parts seem to be in the 2-4% range

[02:09:16] <TheLarch> under $250 is free
[02:09:16] <Tom_itx> rather have hurricanes over earthquakes?
[02:09:44] <jdh> I'd prefer neither, but I've been through plenty of hurricanes
[02:09:57] <Jymmm> ditto for EQ's
[02:10:15] <TheLarch> I was just looking at the costs for importing $200K would be
[02:10:28] <Jymmm> the thing about hurricanes is you have a warning, EQ no warning
[02:10:52] <jdh> probably a little more than my $200 :)
[02:11:12] <jdh> what are you going to do with $200k worht of cheap chinese ball screws?
[02:11:25] <jdh> saturate the market for mediocre hardware?

[02:15:25] <Jymmm> Whats a cheap source for SS rod? 2mm would be fine.
[02:15:54] <TheLarch> ball screws and lead screws are not very labor intensive to produce, it's mostly automated
[02:16:56] <TheLarch> the US hasn't run out of scrap steel yet

[02:46:19] <tjb1> 1 wire power?
[02:48:08] <uw> i thought you ment 1 wire power
[02:48:25] <tjb1> There are 4 wires on the pole
[02:48:33] <tjb1> 3 phase correct?
[02:48:50] <uw> for y grid yes
[02:48:58] <uw> delta grid is 3 wires?
[02:49:16] <uw> some places only have 1 wire power though
[02:49:24] <tjb1> Well our transformer taps off the middle wire
[02:49:29] <tjb1> we did until last year
[02:49:39] <tjb1> the places with power tap off the left wire
[02:50:00] <uw> ok gotcha
[02:50:05] <tjb1> Wouldnt that screw up a machine if all 3 phases arent on?
[02:50:28] <tjb1> Or do they install something for 3 phase customers that shuts the power off if all 3 phases arent working
[02:50:33] <uw> ive ran stuff off of 2 of 3 phases?
[02:51:00] <uw> not recommened though
[02:51:15] <uw> probably what you mentioned there
[02:52:05] <uw> transformers at the pole or wherever might have a way of detecting shorted or down line, and would break the rest
[02:52:08] <uw> eh forget that

[15:00:27] <tjb1> Im just surprised we got power back this fast
[15:01:02] <Tom_itx> i was out over 2 weeks during an ice storm once
[15:01:18] <Tom_itx> generally hail/tornados don't take quite as long
[15:01:28] <Tom_itx> maybe 2 to 4 days
[15:01:48] <tjb1> We use to lose power when it rained before then ran the new lines

[15:17:46] <amaldo> syyl: We are doing robotics in the computer science faculty, that is the source of the problem. The people over at mechanical engineering have it good.
[15:17:57] <syyl> ah, ok
[15:18:03] <syyl> that explains something :D
[15:18:11] -!- Mourner has quit [Quit: Page closed]
[15:18:44] <amaldo> syyl: yep, but something very similar happens also to the people over at electrical engineering, they have a shop for the whole faculty, so it is hard to get parts done.
[15:19:24] <amaldo> syyl: and the funny/sad thing is that most people doing robotics are either in CS or EE.
[15:19:43] <syyl> :(
[15:21:03] <tjb1> Are the mounts on the back of a monitor standard?
[15:21:19] <syyl> yes
[15:21:25] <syyl> the four-bolt-pattern?
[15:21:32] <syyl> google for vesa mount
[15:21:33] <tjb1> Yes and the opening

[15:23:00] <tjb1> That is standard syyl ^
[15:23:30] <syyl> :)
[15:23:54] <tjb1> Thanks
[15:24:00] <tjb1> Off to find a mount now :)
[15:24:07] <syyl> make one!
[15:24:21] <syyl> heavy steel, plasmacutter, some welding.. :D
[15:24:33] <jdh> or buy one dirtcheap from monoprice.com
[15:24:45] <syyl> thats the easy way :D

[16:01:54] <joe9> i am deciding on which step block to buy from here http://www.te-co.com/Default.aspx?CategoryID=PG1012 It appears that I should buy the biggest available.
[16:02:08] <joe9> Is there any reason to go for the smaller size step block?
[16:02:32] <joe9> I am thinking of 40104, though for my purposes now 40102 will suffice.
[16:02:42] -!- odogono has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
[16:02:46] <joe9> other than cost, is there something else that goes into this decision?
[16:04:44] <cradek> they have a minimum height - see the range it shows in the table
[16:04:54] <cradek> so no, the biggest available is not necessarily what you want
[16:05:07] <cradek> you probably want a full clamping set, which will have a nice useful variety
[16:06:06] <cradek> http://www.te-co.com/Machinist+Clamp+Kits-C-PG1005-C-.aspx
[16:06:39] <cradek> get the kit that matches your T slot size (which is proportional to your machine size) and you'll have a useful set for most tasks
[16:06:49] -!- Thetawaves [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[16:07:17] <joe9> cradek, my T-slot size is 6mm and I am getting the t-slots separately, as I could not find a vendor with clamping kits for a taig.
[16:07:30] <joe9> cradek: i am checking up on the minimum height and they do not seem to have one.
[16:07:51] <joe9> the range is the max height availability
[16:07:59] <joe9> when vertical on horizontal.
[16:08:30] <joe9> cradek: i am not questioning what you said just trying to understand where/what the minimum height is.
[16:09:32] <joe9> "Height Adj. Range" is what they are calling it.
[16:09:38] <joe9> the more the better, it seems.
[16:10:02] <joe9> and all the step blocks have steps of 1/16inch or 1/8 inch (the other way).
[16:11:35] <alex4nder> joe9: http://littlemachineshop.com/products/product_view.php?ProductID=1943&category=
[16:11:54] <alex4nder> probably as close to a kit as you'll find for the taig.
[16:12:07] -!- sendoushi [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[16:15:59] <joe9> alex4nder: that is a good find. thanks. I was checking out their clamping kit and noticed that it was on backorder.

[16:52:50] <IchGuckLive> hi all
[16:54:18] <Jymmm> Is shellac the ONLY alcohol based clear coat?
[16:54:46] <Jymmm> djdelorie: Is shellac the ONLY alcohol based clear coat?
[16:56:35] <IchGuckLive> every guitar stor has shellac in its storige
[16:57:23] <Jymmm> It's expensive though. And I can't find shellac powder locally
[16:59:58] <djdelorie> Jymmm: I don't know
[17:00:11] <djdelorie> I get mine at the paint store, by the gallon
[17:00:23] <Jymmm> djdelorie: shellac?
[17:00:27] <djdelorie> yu
[17:00:30] <djdelorie> yup
[17:01:10] <djdelorie> our local hardware store carries it too
[17:01:11] <Jymmm> djdelorie: I need very little, so I was thinking powder. Especially since prepared shellac has a 3yr shelf life.
[17:01:32] <IchGuckLive> shellac is not delivert as a fluid
[17:01:35] <djdelorie> so buy a quart instead :-)
[17:01:47] <djdelorie> shellac is often delivered as a fluid
[17:01:49] <Jymmm> $15 per qt.
[17:01:56] <Jymmm> Yes, I know.
[17:02:08] <Jymmm> but there is also flake and powde
[17:02:11] <Jymmm> r
[17:02:31] <IchGuckLive> shellac is not stable as fluid under air
[17:02:53] <djdelorie> IchGuckLive: you can just add more alcohol to restore it
[17:03:01] <djdelorie> Jymmm: $8 a gallon
[17:03:02] <Jymmm> djdelorie: do you find your settles alot, meaning you have to mix it well?
[17:03:10] <djdelorie> I haven't mixed mine yet
[17:03:30] <Jymmm> djdelorie: veryexpensive here for some reason. $8/gal would be great.
[17:03:31] <djdelorie> shellac is a solution, not a suspension
[17:04:03] <djdelorie> Zissner $10/qt
[17:04:14] <Jymmm> djdelorie: Ok. Just when I shook the can in the store it didn't feel right =)
[17:04:40] <Jymmm> Yep, but $14/qt instead of $8/gal
[17:04:42] <djdelorie> you can get shellac in spray cans too
[17:04:49] <Jymmm> I need liquid
[17:05:12] <Jymmm> I'd love powder
[17:05:38] <jdh> probably wouldn't be good for your nasal passages.
[17:06:15] <Jymmm> jdh: come on man, go do a line of baking powder!
[17:06:45] <TheLarch> why the need for an ancient biopolymer?
[17:07:08] <Jymmm> I need an alcohol based clear coat
[17:07:29] <jdh> why alcohol
[17:07:53] <Jymmm> fast drying
[17:08:11] <pcw_home> because it easy to remove for repairs? same reason you don't glue violins with epoxy
[17:08:14] <jdh> acetone is fast dring
[17:08:27] <Jymmm> leaves a residue
[17:09:02] <Jymmm> and is toxic compared to alcohol
[17:11:10] <archivist> I just need alcohol :)
[17:11:36] * jdh hands out a few liters of EverClear(tm)
[17:11:57] <jdh> aged over 30 minutes in glass bottles.
[17:12:08] <TheLarch> Jymmm: are you brushing this on?
[17:12:10] <alex4nder> jdh: the burn lets you know it's workig.
[17:12:17] <djdelorie> everclear is the solvent of choice for making food-safe shellac finishes.
[17:12:47] <Jymmm> djdelorie: and 190 proof is ILLEGAL in Calif, 151 proof is legal
[17:13:01] <jdh> .ca.us is so protective.
[17:13:02] <Jymmm> TheLarch: no, dipping.
[17:13:28] <Jymmm> jdh: s/protective/fubared/
[17:13:31] <djdelorie> CA is such a nanny state

[17:38:03] <Connor> Ahh.
[17:38:14] <Connor> Yea. I might try that at some point too.
[17:38:20] <jdh> I can turn the shank down in the lathe, then drill/bore in place on the mill.
[17:38:35] <Connor> How are you going to center it ?
[17:38:38] <jdh> but, turning the shank would be much easier on a cnc'ed platform.
[17:39:07] <jdh> good question. I'm open to suggestions :)
[17:39:17] <Connor> I never came up with one.
[17:40:08] <Connor> Almost as if you need a collet holder on the table.. and you do a similar alignment procedure that you would on a lathe using a bar between centers.. ?
[17:40:09] <Jymmm> Woof? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5i4gzIeMOfQ&feature=player_embedded
[17:40:09] <jdh> could center drill in the lathe, then use that as the reference.

[17:47:22] <Connor> not really, but, that picture is generic.. That might be the 5C shank..
[17:47:43] <Connor> Mine did come with both inside and outisde jaws.
[17:47:46] <jdh> looks like it.
[17:48:15] <jdh> wonder why the 4" is $30 more than the 3"
[17:48:40] <Connor> Huh?
[17:48:51] <Connor> Oh.
[17:49:06] <Connor> I'm noticing that the 3" is more than the 4"
[17:49:22] <Connor> 3" is 125. 4" is 95.
[17:49:38] <jdh> heh... I said it the wrong way.
[17:55:00] <jdh> I can't find any 800watt anymore
[17:59:30] <Jymmm> 800W what?

[23:55:01] <WillenCMD> stupid quesiton but im sitting here with a 4n38 optocoupler, wondering how to tell what pins are what.
[23:55:17] <r00t4rd3d> datasheet
[23:55:20] <WillenCMD> i have the schematic, but it just says top view. there are two ways to view it
[23:55:51] <WillenCMD> there is a notch on one side
[23:55:54] <r00t4rd3d> what are the pins, out puts, in puts?
[23:56:37] <WillenCMD> http://www.datasheetcatalog.org/datasheet/toshiba/2211.pdf
[23:57:39] <r00t4rd3d> look at the chip, is one side angled more?
[23:57:41] <andypugh> It has one sloping side
[23:58:12] <r00t4rd3d> newbs i tell ya
[23:58:16] <r00t4rd3d> :)
[23:58:30] <WillenCMD> isn't everyone new at one point in time?
[23:58:32] <WillenCMD> :)
[23:58:38] <r00t4rd3d> you see it now?
[23:58:54] <WillenCMD> no
[23:58:59] <r00t4rd3d> lol
[23:59:00] <andypugh> I haven't seen one marked that way before, though.
[23:59:26] <WillenCMD> it stands straight up, they can write all those numbers on it, but they can't put the number one above one pin
[23:59:29] <WillenCMD> seriously
[23:59:37] <r00t4rd3d> look at the datasheet, top page, the side view
[23:59:56] <andypugh> The edge with pin 1 is chamfered at a different angle.
