[00:17:47] <ReadError> even some 24x24" sheets of g10
[00:17:50] <ReadError> only 9$
[00:19:12] <tjb1> Takes them 2 days for me and I am too far to go pick it up
[00:19:48] <tjb1> If mcmaster was here, bye bye fastenal, lowes, and all local hardware stores
[00:20:48] <ReadError> yea
[00:20:54] <ReadError> they are pretty nice on the phone
[00:21:04] <ReadError> so hopefully i can call later tonight and have drill bits appended

[00:22:29] <ReadError> no backlash really?
[00:22:32] <tjb1> nope
[00:22:46] <tjb1> I need to work on the slaved acis

[00:25:58] <tjb1> New rack and pinion drives
[00:26:21] <tjb1> Pivot bolt now has needle bearings and I think the drive gear has needle bearings too…plus a new tensioning system
[00:26:37] <ReadError> i really would like a modular table

[00:28:44] <ReadError> ive heard around 600
[00:28:53] <tjb1> I was going to look into it but I think mine would have too much vibration to use

[00:32:15] <ReadError> so im using 3-in-1 as cutting oil
[00:32:20] <ReadError> eventually i need to clean these parts
[00:32:25] <ReadError> should i just use a bucket of gas ?
[00:32:34] <ReadError> i been using 91% isopropyl
[00:33:11] <tjb1> No clue
[00:33:14] <tjb1> parts cleaner?
[00:33:26] <ReadError> true i kinda want to get some 80/20 and make something neat with that
[00:33:39] <tjb1> Why would you buy that kit?
[00:33:40] <ReadError> did you see that printer they have on that automated technologies site?
[00:33:52] <ReadError> 429 for frame and motors
[00:33:54] <ReadError> not bad
[00:34:05] <tjb1> is it the ord hadron?
[00:34:14] <ReadError> not sure its like blue and silver ;)
[00:34:22] <ReadError> i would like you but im cutting and dont want to spike my latency
[00:34:27] <ReadError> link*
[00:34:37] <tjb1> Does it use makerslide?
[00:35:47] <ReadError> not sure
[00:35:52] <ReadError> details are pretty sparse
[00:35:54] <tjb1> Yep thats the hadron
[00:37:05] <tjb1> im going to build one of those
[00:37:36] <ReadError> well shoot for 429
[00:37:41] <ReadError> its not an incredibly bad deal
[00:37:50] <ReadError> considering the motors all the hardware
[00:37:55] <tjb1> Still going to have $250-300 in electronics and extruder
[00:37:59] <ReadError> it looks like the parts are all aluminum
[00:38:02] <ReadError> like bent
[00:38:05] <ReadError> not printed

[00:38:26] <tjb1> Take a look at that if you can
[00:40:49] <ReadError> how much is that?
[00:40:55] <ReadError> lots of prices missing
[00:41:05] <tjb1> total is bottom left
[00:41:09] <tjb1> im still working on it
[00:41:20] <tjb1> bottom right sorry
[00:41:56] <ReadError> well i mean alot of the buildlog stuff is missing
[00:42:05] <tjb1> i cant find any of it on buildlog
[00:42:14] <ReadError> well 429 isnt *that* bad
[00:42:35] <tjb1> we were going to custom make all the buildlog stuff
[00:43:05] <tjb1> but its looking like it wont even be worth the effort when you can buy all of it for $429

[18:31:41] <jdh> shouldn't he be out campaigning?
[18:37:22] <andypugh> Any clever schemes to pack 30 bits of data (3 x 10 bit samples) into as few 8-bit bytes as possible such that it is possible to revover synch.
[18:37:26] <andypugh> (recover)
[18:37:57] <andypugh> My initial idea is to use 7 bits of data, and set the highest bit of the first byte.
[18:38:43] <andypugh> That uses 5 bytes.

[18:40:51] <Tom_itx> andypugh what are you up to?
[18:41:01] <L84Supper> recover synch? how is the data sent?
[18:41:04] <andypugh> Sending resolver data back from the Arduino.
[18:41:16] <Tom_itx> limited speed?
[18:41:36] <andypugh> It's just serial data, sent continuously and shoveled out of the buffer at the Mesa end
[18:41:44] <andypugh> (no handshaking)
[18:42:39] <andypugh> I actually have it working with 6 bytes where the top 3 bits say what sort of data it is, and which channel.
[18:43:22] <andypugh> But I managed to delete that comp during a git-clean so I figure if I am going to re-write it I might as well be cleverer.
[18:46:14] <L84Supper> 7 bits data, 1 bit as a clock (toggles 1,0 every byte) then send 2 reference frame every 100 bytes or something
[18:47:28] -!- syyl_ws has quit [Quit: Verlassend]
[18:47:37] <archivist> would the reference frames be a latency/jitter problem
[18:47:45] <L84Supper> thinking of 8b/10b schemes
[18:48:41] <L84Supper> not if the data is sent faster than the original sample rate, but then you need a buffer large enough to hold this
[18:49:32] <L84Supper> not sure of the big picture yet :)
[18:54:43] <andypugh> L84Supper: I think 1 clock bit every frame makes sense?
[18:55:28] <andypugh> But then the last byte is slightly short :-)
[18:55:40] <andypugh> Not a problem, it just seems like wasted bits
[18:56:01] <andypugh> 7, 7, 7, 7, 2.
[18:56:41] <jdh> or 6 each
[18:57:16] <andypugh> Yes, it might as well be 2 "framing" bits and 6 data bits every time.
[18:57:16] <cradek> andypugh: obviously you have two bits to play with for a sync scheme. it kind of seems like you need 4. so what do you know about your data stream? are there two bits in your data that you know anything about?
[18:57:57] <andypugh> No, these are three encoder positions.
[18:58:34] <andypugh> I do know that they can only move so fast, but I am not sure how to use that if I want absolute position.
[18:58:45] <IchGuckLive> NBC joke if the power goes out try to keep up with NBC news O.O

[19:01:02] <jdh> aren't you doing mbit speeds? Seems like adding a few bytes to enhance data robustness would be better?

[19:02:17] <L84Supper> 8b/10b, is a very accurate clock
[19:02:44] <cradek> could you manipulate parity even/odd setting for each byte to get the desired 9th bit sent?
[19:02:51] <cradek> not sure what you have for uarts

[19:03:20] <cradek> ok, neither of which I know squat about

[19:04:16] <cradek> well if you get too clever you'll be able to stop them just working...
[19:05:01] <andypugh> I wondered about parity being deliberately wrong to mark start of frame, but I don't think there are any parity bits.
[19:05:03] <L84Supper> if they are buffered like a 16550 then you lose your "most recent data possible" requirement
[19:06:02] <andypugh> L84Supper: I empty the buffer every time I look at it, and use the latest possible bytes.
[19:06:47] <cradek> that's a better idea - you only have to flip your parity setting predictably once per packet
[19:06:53] <archivist> but does that mean you can have a later x than y etc

[19:07:27] <andypugh> It was a few months ago when I got it working.

[19:24:08] <andypugh> ie, you set up a list of registers to read and registers to write, and then that happens every servo thread,

[22:51:47] <andypugh> kwallace: I think a few folks are, but can't recall any names.
[22:52:00] <cradek> hey kirk, what's the actual question?
[22:52:20] <andypugh> I am fairly sure that monster 5-axis at MPM is a Pico-controlled device
[22:52:42] <cradek> I think everything but the robot at MPM is running pico stuff
[22:52:54] <cradek> but that's surely beside the point :-)
[22:53:24] <kwallace> I've gone through the usual suspects on a new installation and I'm wondering if I should keep at it.
[22:53:53] <cradek> what do you mean?
[22:53:57] <kwallace> If the Pico controller is known to not work with 2.5, I can go onto something else.
[22:54:16] <cradek> what is your error?
[22:55:21] <kwallace> I'm working on a paste location.
[22:57:04] <andypugh> The Pico controller is known to work well with 2.5
[22:58:44] <andypugh> The place to ask is probably the mailing list or possibly the Pico section of the forum. Jon Elson hangs out in both places.
[22:59:36] <kwallace> http://www.wallacecompany.com/cnc_lathe/pico_error
[22:59:47] <andypugh> Even without the error message I am going for 50% probability that its an EPP problem.
[23:00:29] <andypugh> Is the parallel port set to EPP in the BIOS? What mothrboard is it?
[23:00:58] <kwallace> I've set EPP and checked it with the pp utility, then ran Jon's diagnostic and it runs fine.

[23:26:35] <JT-Shop> 15Kw 3-phase generator here
[23:26:43] <Valen> serious
[23:27:23] <JT-Shop> deutz diesel motor
[23:27:28] <JT-Shop> air cooled
[23:27:56] <pfred1> Valen I fill plastic buckets out of my pool and just dump them into the john
[23:28:04] <Valen> lol
[23:28:08] <JT-Shop> water is water
[23:28:08] <pfred1> it works
[23:28:16] <Valen> that'll be fun in 100mph wind ;->
[23:28:35] <pfred1> if we lose power it can be for days
[23:29:03] <pfred1> I lost power for almost 4 days during Snowmagedon
[23:30:18] <kwallace> Well, my old EMC2 2.3 PC works okay on the lathe, so I know the bits from the lathe up to the parallel port works. I seem to recall some old .ini settings on new software fail in a pretty ugly way. I'll put the new computer back on and pare the .ini to the bone and see if that helps. Thanks again.
[23:30:45] <JT-Shop> kwallace: your back!
[23:31:14] <JT-Shop> I moved my VMC from the garage to the shop today in 10hrs and that is what is alive now

[23:32:51] <JT-Shop> kwallace: check the wiki for upgrade info from 2.3 to 2.5
[23:32:51] <kwallace> JT-Shop: Cool, I guess you got it done before the bad weather.
[23:33:36] <JT-Shop> no bad weather here, just west of the Mississippi river half way from each end
[23:34:10] <c60> Are there any professional CNC's that come with LinuxCNC?
[23:35:41] <kwallace> I think Smithy and Tormach come with LinuxCNC inside.
[23:36:13] <Valen> speaking of mills
[23:36:29] <c60> wood + plastic routers
[23:36:39] <c60> possibly soft metals, non-ferrous
[23:37:08] <Valen> we are going to be making a new spindle soon, any suggestions for a tool holder system to use for automatic tool changing where the tool holders are readily and cheaply available?
[23:38:22] <JT-Shop> I have Kwik Switch on the BP and BT30 on the other BP so I don't know if CAT something tooling is cheaper than BT...
[23:38:48] <kwallace> I have NMTB40 holders on my Shizuoka mill. I'm lusting for CAT30 for my Bridgeport.
[23:39:42] <Valen> any paticular reason for those? preferences?
[23:39:43] <JT-Shop> is CAT30 just slightly different than BT30?
[23:40:33] -!- oyildirim has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[23:40:53] <kwallace> The flange most likely has different dimensions.
[23:40:56] -!- oyildirim [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[23:41:00] <toastyde1th> cat30 and bt30 are only different in how the toolchanger clamps
[23:41:15] <JT-Shop> I get all my tool holders from Maritool
[23:41:25] <toastyde1th> sometimes spindle drive lugs don't fit between the two
[23:41:35] <JT-Shop> great people making quality stuff at a fair price
[23:41:46] <toastyde1th> they're both nmtb-30 tapers and they both have interchangable drawnuts
[23:42:13] <kwallace> http://www.tools-n-gizmos.com/specs/Tapers.html
[23:42:17] <JT-Shop> the pull studs?
[23:42:24] <toastyde1th> most bt30 tools will fit in cat30 spindles but not the other way around
[23:42:40] <toastyde1th> JT-Shop, yes
[23:43:07] <andypugh> Then there is 30INT, which is a lot like CAT30
[23:43:38] <andypugh> You can adapt BT to CAT or INT.
[23:44:12] <andypugh> Anyone not seen my home-byult BT30 drawbar?
[23:44:52] <andypugh> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxrzJ_KfcQ0&feature=share&list=UUexvgsGz_QFvOublovDYoTQ
[23:45:16] <toastyde1th> damn that's nice
[23:45:37] <kwallace> It looks like the flange is thicker on the BT with the slot biased to the nose.
[23:46:15] <toastyde1th> the flange is thicker and the drive lugs on bt spindles often jam on cat flanges
[23:46:19] <toastyde1th> but not the other way around
[23:46:39] <JT-Shop> nice, did you heat treat some of the parts?
[23:46:42] <toastyde1th> i know this because i used to blindly grab 40 taper tooling
[23:47:04] <andypugh> Yes, the collets and end are O1 steel, hardened and tempered
[23:48:50] <JT-Shop> I have plans to build a small heat treat oven when I get the shop organized again...
[23:49:10] <JT-Shop> have you seen Dudley's Element Paper?
