[00:01:08] <andypugh> Halscope runs in a thread, so samples fast-thread stuff rather less frequentluy than mr Nyqvist suggests.
[00:01:46] <skunkworks> base thread of 50us?
[00:01:54] <tjtr33> yep
[00:02:13] <tjtr33> will dbl it for nyquist
[00:02:14] <skunkworks> do you get realtime errors?
[00:02:18] <tjtr33> )haalve)
[00:02:25] <tjtr33> nope
[00:02:38] <skunkworks> impressive - are you sure?
[00:02:49] <skunkworks> what is the hardware?
[00:02:52] <andypugh> I suspect what you are seeing are artefacts due to precisely when the inputs to the and2 and the outputs are sampled, relative to the execution instant of the and2.
[00:03:21] <tjtr33> none now, but am sluggish fer sure, old dell p4
[00:03:28] <andypugh> Bear in mind that all HAL functions run in turn. I am not sure where Halscope is in that sequence.
[00:03:52] <Connor> Hmm.. Digital or Analog Amp meter for Spindle Load...
[00:03:57] <tjtr33> i want to try dbling the periods, bbl
[00:03:59] <Connor> and, put it on the AC or DC side...
[00:04:05] <tjtr33> and thanks
[00:04:10] <andypugh> tjtr33: 500,000 would be more usual for a servo thread.
[00:04:39] <skunkworks> I cannot believe that motion and all will run at 50us...
[00:04:57] <skunkworks> unless he is just running hal?
[00:05:56] <skunkworks> pretty basic hal FUNCTION(_) { out = in0 && in1; }
[00:06:15] <Connor> anyone have any thoughts on the amp meter ?
[00:06:26] -!- syyl_ [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[00:06:39] <skunkworks> Connor: what kind of spindle?
[00:06:51] <Connor> Treadmill motor.

[00:07:21] <Connor> call pull around 16 amps on the DC side.
[00:08:01] <Connor> Trying to figure out if I want analog, or digital, and if I want it on the DC or AC side..
[00:09:28] -!- syyl__ has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds]
[00:09:30] <skunkworks> ac side would be easire...
[00:09:32] <skunkworks> easier
[00:09:45] <Connor> http://www.lightobject.com/Analog-Meter-C32.aspx
[00:09:53] <Connor> http://www.lightobject.com/Digital-Panel-Meter-C21.aspx
[00:10:07] <Connor> looking at the 20 or 30 amp meters..
[00:10:11] <skunkworks> few turns and a few turns to an analog meter...
[00:10:35] <Connor> huh?
[00:10:38] <andypugh> Actual physical meters? How quaint!
[00:11:25] <skunkworks> oh - or buy an actual current meter... ;)
[00:11:28] <tjtr33> skunkworks, its running axis, its running a stepper machine, i dont have a video but could upload a screen capture with gtkrecordmydesktop
[00:11:49] <andypugh> Connor: The meters are cheap, but how much is the 30A shunt?
[00:12:05] <tjtr33> andypugh, its way diff at 50000 and 10000, looks like a real and gate now
[00:12:33] <Connor> http://www.lightobject.com/Electronics-C13.aspx
[00:12:34] <Nick001-Shop> Hooking up a differential glass scale - can I leave A/,B/and I/ disconnected or do I have to use a single ended converter to hook up to linuxcnc
[00:13:03] <skunkworks> tjtr33: that is impressive - are you sure you don't get 1 realtime error on load of axis?
[00:13:15] <Connor> Only seeing 20Amps.. which is fine.. 6.5 for a 20A 75mV DC Shunt.
[00:13:25] <Connor> not sure I get the Voltage though.. How does that work...
[00:14:26] <andypugh> All those meters are 75mV full-scale. They are selling them purely on the front panel marking.
[00:14:56] <Connor> what does that mean?
[00:14:57] <andypugh> The shunts create 75mV at rated current.
[00:15:22] <tjtr33> http://imagebin.org/243871
[00:15:53] <Connor> and do you use a shunt with analog ones ?
[00:16:13] <tjtr33> skunkworks, they do occur, none while we've spoken, its just a box i use to test, i have one of those atoms in safekeeping
[00:16:39] <andypugh> Connor: All those meters are identical 75mV voltmeters, with different markings on the front. You need to set them up with a shunt so that there is 75mV on the terminals at the displayed value.
[00:17:26] <Connor> ah. okay, so the shunt takes the 0-90v, and converts it to 75mV
[00:17:32] <tjtr33> usually rated at 50mV = N amperes
[00:17:33] <Connor> with the correct amparage.
[00:18:21] <Connor> I've never used shunts before...
[00:18:42] <Connor> never really hooked up a amp meter before.. Just normally use my Multimeter..
[00:18:42] <andypugh> tjtr33: I was basing the 75mV on the web page, I don't know if it is true. I was at school the last time I set up a moving-needle meter.
[00:19:29] <tjtr33> :) i got a few on the bench here, the and2 gate was part of a 75 amp EDSM pulse generator, thus need for speed
[00:19:30] <andypugh> Well, basically you don't pass 30A through the tiny coil in the meter :-)
[00:20:05] <andypugh> Your 30A passes through the shunt, and the meter measures the voltage drop accross that.
[00:20:21] <andypugh> V = IR and all that.

[02:29:00] <jdh> anyone ever repaired a read window defogger tab?
[02:29:50] <Jymmm> jdh: I'm thinking silicon and solder
[02:30:14] <Jymmm> and lots of flux
[02:30:33] <jdh> silicon?
[02:30:47] <pcw_home> conductive epoxy?
[02:30:49] <jdh> I was thinking solderpaste and heat
[02:30:51] <Jymmm> Yeah, yo hold the tab to the the glass securely
[02:31:05] <jdh> but, the heat might not be good for the glass
[02:31:08] <tjb1> silicone jymmm
[02:31:19] <cradek> jdh: have you asked a window/windshield repair shop?
[02:31:30] <Jymmm> dont thermal shock the glass
[02:31:40] <jdh> cradek: no.
[02:31:58] <jdh> just google and amazon
[02:32:05] <cradek> jdh: I'm a huge do-it-yourselfer of course, but I'd do that...
[02:32:07] <jdh> $35 kit for tab repair
[02:32:14] <Jymmm> jdh:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Zo57lUSnUo
[02:32:38] <skunkworks> anyone replaced the ipad glass?
[02:32:42] <jdh> heh... that looks like my car
[02:33:24] <jdh> wonder how hot that iron is
[02:33:46] <Jymmm> looks like a 60W iron
[02:34:15] <jdh> I'll call a windshield place first.
[02:34:45] <Jymmm> jdh: Once soldered, I'd then silicone it in place, it'll never virbate loose again
[02:35:14] <Jymmm> test first of course
[02:35:17] <jdh> I think something caught it when I opened the glass and ripped it off
[02:35:23] <Jymmm> then silicon =)
[02:35:52] <Jymmm> jdh: the cord should came off first I'd hope
[02:36:10] <jdh> the tab is firmly attached to tab.
[02:36:14] <jdh> cord
[02:37:31] <Jymmm> When I used to install on-glass antennas, that's what we used... never ever did one ever come off on it's own =)
[02:38:04] <jdh> smear the silicone over the top of the tab?
[02:38:11] <Jymmm> yeah
[02:38:49] <Jymmm> jdh: about the size of a quarter, maybe 1/8" thick
[02:40:19] <Jymmm> MY car, the cord will come free of the tab though.
[02:43:25] <Valen> the conductive bit came off the glass itself Jymmm
[02:43:42] <Jymmm> the foil?
[02:43:45] <jdh> I didn't check the glass to see what was left.
[02:45:10] <jdh> I can start my car from the bedroom with the key fob. The defogger/defroster/wtf comes on if needed (and the seat heaters). Makes it easier/safer to back out of the driveway.
[02:45:30] <Jymmm> jdh: also, pre-tinning is never a bad thing whenever possible.
[02:46:28] <jdh> I'll have to look. The windshield shop or $35 kit might be worthwhile.
[02:46:53] <Jymmm> good luck

[10:20:25] -!- pingufan has quit [Quit: Konversation terminated!]
[10:45:18] <TekniQue> Tecan: yep, and good answers as usual on stack overflow
[10:46:00] <Tecan> yep neat stuff
[10:50:33] <Tecan> using heap is good for lots of small shortlived things like particles or very large things
[10:51:07] <TekniQue> nah heap is better for long lived large things
[10:51:07] <Tecan> otherwise use stack its faster and less prone to fragmenting
[10:51:35] <TekniQue> because it has lots of space available but comes with an allocation time penalty
[10:51:43] <TekniQue> allocation and deallocation take time
[10:52:02] <TekniQue> stack has limited space so it's bad for large objects
[10:52:12] <TekniQue> but it's very fast to allocate
[10:52:46] <TekniQue> but has no way of dynamically deallocating because it is a stack
[10:53:13] <TekniQue> deallocation has to be done in reverse order of allocation
[10:53:30] <Tecan> ty for the input
[10:53:37] <Tecan> love irc
[10:53:55] <TekniQue> stack is what's used in a program when you declare a variable inside a function
[10:54:02] <TekniQue> as part of the function
[10:54:12] <TekniQue> int c; goes on the stack
[10:54:26] <TekniQue> and it's all deallocated once the function returns
[10:54:31] <Tecan> yeah to make it go into the heap you'd have to write a memory manager and overload the new function
[10:54:48] <Tecan> or just new something
[10:54:59] <TekniQue> every function call incurs a stack allocation
[10:55:18] <Tecan> hmmmm
[10:55:36] <TekniQue> with the parameters passed to the function and a pointer saying where to return
[10:56:06] <Tecan> so the whole main program is not allocated on the heap just main ?
[10:56:20] <Tecan> i gotta read more
[10:56:27] <Tecan> ;)
[10:56:32] <Tecan> bbiab
[10:58:20] <TekniQue> like I said, every function allocates from the stack
[10:59:46] <TekniQue> but the stack is just a regular block of memory

[11:43:19] -!- nevyn [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[11:44:14] <nevyn> I'm trying to test linuxcnc with the -rt kernel patches (as I was already running them) but latency-test doesn't seem to change the priority of the spawned test threads to realtime
[11:44:47] <nevyn> so the current numbers I'm getting are... underwhelming.
[11:45:02] <Tecan> nevyn why not just use the iso ?
[11:45:17] <Tecan> its ready to rip
[11:45:23] -!- kmiyashiro has quit [Quit: kmiyashiro]
[11:45:23] <Tecan> or cut be it
[11:46:19] <nevyn> Tecan: because my laptop is already configured for realtime and tested with the -rt patches (I use it with jack)
[11:46:56] <archivist> nevyn, some interrupt or some dma may already have stolen the bus
[11:47:39] <psha[work]> nevyn: lack of permissions?
[11:47:39] <nevyn> archivist: so the problem I'm having is configuring linuxcnc and latency-test to use -rt
[11:47:53] -!- Zeroww [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[11:48:11] <nevyn> in that it needs to configure the rt threads as sched_FIFO with some priority.
[11:48:29] <archivist> and are you using the recent linuxcnc version or what
[11:48:34] <nevyn> git.
[11:49:28] <nevyn> tho I was somewhat unclear as to whether the branch for rt had been merged or not.
[11:49:29] -!- Zeroww [[email protected]] has parted #linuxcnc
[11:49:49] <Tecan> fopen("/sys/kernel/realtime","r"))
[11:50:52] <archivist> not sure the main git repo covers rt I think you should be using mhaberlers repo
[11:51:19] <nevyn> yep looks that way
[11:51:31] <nevyn> as git grep kernel/realtime returns nothing
[11:51:49] <mhaberler> what are you looking for ?
[11:51:50] <Tecan> same here
[11:52:16] <mhaberler> nevyn - any build questions?
[11:52:19] <Tecan> my linuxcnc box is not up atm tho im using lowlatency ubu
[11:53:21] <mhaberler> re merge: both rtos-integration-preview3 and rtos-integration-preview3-merged-into-master have support for Xenomai, RT PREEMPT and posix (sim)
[11:54:03] <mhaberler> the git.linuxcnc.org repo has none of that, pending build infrastructure support
[11:54:46] <Tecan> that sounds like alot of hardwork on your part
[11:54:59] <Tecan> you must be part machine to be able to do that
[11:55:04] <nevyn> mhaberler: :(
[11:55:16] <mhaberler> doable by humans (note plural)
[11:55:22] <mhaberler> several folks involved
[11:55:27] <Tecan> ;)
[11:55:32] <archivist> testing needed
[11:55:37] <mhaberler> so what was the issue again?
[11:55:57] <mhaberler> read back but cant tell
[11:56:03] <nevyn> mhaberler: so the big question is answered
[11:56:08] <nevyn> I've built the wrong branch ;)
[11:56:15] <Tecan> hehe
[11:56:17] <nevyn> mhaberler: the other questions I have are...
[11:56:46] <nevyn> It's not clear from the wiki if Xenomai is required to use PREEMPT_RT
[11:56:53] <mhaberler> no, it is not
[11:56:54] <nevyn> or if they're alternatives
[11:57:06] <psha[work]> alternatives
[11:57:12] <mhaberler> alternatives; in a few weeks they be runtime alternatives
[11:57:48] <mhaberler> same build for xenomai, rt-preempt, posix/sim - with autodetection; thats in the works but wont affect functionality or performance
[11:57:57] <nevyn> mhaberler: so of rtos-integration-preview3 and rtos-integration-preview3-merged-into-master what would be the reccomendation
[11:58:06] <mhaberler> yes
[11:58:15] <nevyn> mhaberler: "merged into master" is misleading ;)
[11:58:23] <mhaberler> depending if you prefer v2.5_branch or master
[11:58:28] <mhaberler> propose a name?
[11:58:53] <Tecan> unicnc
[11:59:12] <nevyn> mhaberler: "to be mainlined" "for master"
[11:59:13] <mhaberler> I'll tag it 'washer+dryer'
[11:59:19] <Tecan> :)
[11:59:30] <nevyn> in that "merged into master" suggest it's been done.
[11:59:46] <nevyn> and that the contents of this topic branch is now in mainline.
[12:00:13] <mhaberler> a short look at the commit history will fix that perception ;)
[12:01:52] <nevyn> so the difference between preview3 and preview3-merged-into-master is one is tracking 2.5 release and one is tracking master?
[12:01:57] <mhaberler> yes
[12:02:18] <mhaberler> I havent rebased in a while though
[12:02:50] -!- cnc_yqp [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[12:03:19] <nevyn> so we ... (melbourne hackerspace) are building a trivial 2d plotter using linuxcnc and a arduino offload board ...
[12:03:20] <mhaberler> hm, actually Dec 20 for v2.5_branch, not so bad
[12:03:38] <mhaberler> it is a good idea to offload an arduino ;)
[12:03:41] <nevyn> it's this years project for the arduino miniconf.
[12:04:17] <nevyn> https://github.com/CCHS-Melbourne/HackCNC/tree/master/Docs
[12:04:20] <mhaberler> what exactly does the arduino buy in this setup?
[12:04:22] <nevyn> has the overview
[12:04:23] <mhaberler> ah
[12:04:37] -!- jackc- has quit [Ping timeout: 246 seconds]
[12:04:51] <nevyn> mhaberler: it's an interface for the stepper drivers
[12:05:32] <mhaberler> so its a commanded position interface?
[12:06:13] <mhaberler> I'd think the USB link will introduce lots of position noise
[12:07:16] <mhaberler> I get the idea, and that's where I want to go with this ARM board stuff, but your interface is at the wrong layer - too low, too time critical
[12:07:53] <Tecan> mhaberler i cant find your repo
[12:08:16] <mhaberler> git.mah.priv.at
[12:08:31] <Tecan> heh it worked
[12:08:43] <mhaberler> git://git.mah.priv.at/emc2-dev.git
[12:09:03] <nevyn> mhaberler: it's not that smart.
[12:09:18] <mhaberler> try this:
http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?NewRTInstall
[12:10:04] <mhaberler> it will work in principle, but the timing will be lousy
[12:10:06] <nevyn> ok so I found AND in that first sentance confusing...
[12:11:33] <mhaberler> My goal is to cut between UI/task/interp and hal/motion and introduce a messaging layer; the second part would be perfect for these arm boards; the first part - soso; arduinos dont cut it for motion/HAL - too limited
[12:12:43] <nevyn> so you offload accel curves and everything to the arm?
[12:12:59] <nevyn> and send "go here"
[12:13:01] <mhaberler> it is already there
[12:13:21] <mhaberler> yes, that would be the idea, it's the motion/task interface; it just has no public API atm
[12:13:50] <mhaberler> 'go here' is time insensitive as long as you dont underrun the queue
[12:14:03] <nevyn> hrm.
[12:14:09] <nevyn> curves?
[12:14:24] <mhaberler> thats all in place, see the task/motion interface
[12:14:34] <nevyn> ok.
[12:14:43] <mhaberler> (it is one of the worst pieces of code in all of linuxcnc)
[12:14:50] <nevyn> eeek
[12:15:32] <mhaberler> that was very polite
[12:15:34] <mhaberler> http://git.mah.priv.at/gitweb/emc2-dev.git/blob/4a5c53ed6d8d8b7f9ee83d5cd2c0b67a4f855352:/src/emc/motion/usrmotintf.h, http://git.mah.priv.at/gitweb/emc2-dev.git/blob/4a5c53ed6d8d8b7f9ee83d5cd2c0b67a4f855352:/src/emc/motion/usrmotintf.cc
[12:15:54] <nevyn> is there a make dist ?
[12:16:03] <mhaberler> a what?
[12:16:15] <mhaberler> you mean a package build?
[12:16:21] <nevyn> no.
[12:16:37] <nevyn> a make mrproper (return source to "pristine")
[12:17:11] <mhaberler> at make level: make clean; at git level: git clean -xdf (and there go all the files you didnt add)
[12:17:29] <mhaberler> not sure, see src/Makefile
[12:17:29] <nevyn> oh the git clean I didn't know about thanks!
[12:17:48] <mhaberler> watch out, this cleans up _very_ thoroughly
[12:18:17] <mhaberler> it essentially restores the status of HEAD and nothing else
[12:18:19] <nevyn> so build a tree and run git status.
[12:18:27] <nevyn> and you have all the cat's and manpages and stuff
[12:18:47] <nevyn> and they're not in .gitignore (maybe they should be) maybe not...
[12:18:52] <mhaberler> was that a question?
[12:19:04] <nevyn> more an observation.
[12:19:45] <mhaberler> well, the linuxcnc build system needs a whole army of competent engineers, and we're happy to sign you up on the task ;)

[13:09:05] <Tecan> the linuxcnc axiom
[13:09:30] <nevyn> the problem for me.. is that I can't see a thread that's marked anything other than SCHED_OTHER (not realtime)

[15:50:00] <IchGuckLive> hi all
[15:51:56] <Tecan> the bikini swimsuit was named after the island in 1946. The two-piece swimsuit was introduced within days of the first nuclear test on the atoll, when the name of the island was in the news.
[15:53:58] <TekniQue> interesting coincidence
[15:54:09] -!- skunkworks [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[16:05:10] <IchGuckLive> Tecan: is this a CNC theme O.O
[16:05:25] <Tecan> i might laser some of the pics
[16:05:34] <Tecan> interesting stuff
[16:06:59] <IchGuckLive> Tecan: the BW printings in laser is fabouless also on wood and then polished
[16:07:25] <Tecan> polished with a buffer ?
[16:07:36] <Tecan> or maybe stained then buffed ?
[16:08:34] <IchGuckLive> standard wood polish floos stuff
[16:08:35] <Tecan> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Crossroads_baker_explosion.jpg
[16:09:16] <Tecan> that one musta been underwater
[16:15:35] <Tecan> 1954 film Godzilla, in which the 1954 U.S. nuclear test awakens and mutates the monster, who then attacks Japan before finally being vanquished by Japanese ingenuity.
[16:15:49] <Tecan> thats where that movie came from :)

[17:55:57] <mrsun> hmm if spindle is very lose can conventional milling drag the cutter into the material making stuff undersized ?
[17:56:04] <mrsun> cant find any error in movement of tables
[17:56:29] <mrsun> and if i did the results wouldnt be as good as i get in finnish etc as it would not correct itself with lost steps
[17:56:31] <archivist> loose spindle can be bad
[17:56:38] <mrsun> the dovetails i mean of it
[17:56:56] <mrsun> getting about 0.5mm undersized when i mill
[17:57:03] <archivist> is there a lot of chatter
[17:57:05] <mrsun> checked the end mill and its 7.98
[17:57:07] <mrsun> archivist, not realy
[17:57:17] <mrsun> some i guess but not very much
[17:57:35] <mrsun> made a hexagon and in two directions its realy big undersized
[17:58:21] <IchGuckLive> energy chain kable for the encoders what do you use for this
[17:58:37] <archivist> take too much and column twist/bend will cause a few errors
[17:58:44] -!- AR__ has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds]
[17:59:18] <archivist> dti between table and head/spindle to check how rigid the machine is
[17:59:20] <mrsun> archivist, ye but feels like that error should be away from the material
[17:59:27] <mrsun> tho conventional milling pulls the cutter into the material
[17:59:27] -!- pjm has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
[17:59:35] <mrsun> gonna make a test with the same program but climb cutting
[17:59:42] <mrsun> and see if it gets oversized :P
[17:59:49] -!- pjm [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[17:59:50] <IchGuckLive> im running on 400inch per min the hole day so it hat to be a very flex cable
[18:00:23] <IchGuckLive> mrsun: garbige clamp
[18:00:32] <IchGuckLive> get a holex mount
[18:00:41] <archivist> ?
[18:02:23] -!- AR__ [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[18:03:11] <archivist> mrsun, if your slides are now much tighter and friction is higher, lost steps and backlash problems will show up more
[18:03:53] <archivist> I have had unbalanced weight on the table cause friction problems too
[18:07:05] <mrsun> archivist, ye but lost steps would start to add up
[18:07:27] <mrsun> and as it doesnt "step" anywhere on the piece ven tho i make 10 passes downwards it deosnt feel like that
[18:07:27] <archivist> should add up but....
[18:07:56] <mrsun> but checked the tables now, the X table was a bit tight and the dovetails not straight :/
[18:08:01] <mrsun> so had to losen it up some
[18:08:32] <archivist> couplers coming loose is another thing that bites sometimes
[18:09:26] <archivist> cut a square and a circle and measure too
[18:09:27] <mrsun> still with a cut straight down in 10 increments it should show one one of the sides if im losing position
[18:10:28] -!- karavanjoW has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds]
[18:12:07] <mrsun> but ye i will do tests =)
[18:13:05] <mrsun> but shouldnt a hexagon be a quite god test? :)
[18:13:12] <mrsun> as you got both straight moves and diagonal moves
[18:14:17] <archivist> a circle shows a transition when there is a backlash problem
[18:14:29] <mrsun> mm
[18:14:40] <mrsun> checked backlashes and have compensation in for it also
[18:14:45] <tjb1> r00t4rd3d: It works on my n7 but not the sg3
[18:14:47] <mrsun> but might have to measure more =)
[18:14:58] <mrsun> maybe take the 0.001mm indicator to get it realy down to the money :P
[18:15:04] <archivist> yes you might :)
[18:15:28] <mrsun> but with the indicator i used it was right on the money ... atleast down to 0.005
[18:16:53] <mrsun> well atleast the parts i did cut isnt totaly destroyed ... just two pieces for a 15mm "key?"
[18:17:04] <mrsun> so even tho their 0.5mm off its not so huge a deal :P
[18:20:43] <archivist> are your backlash fiddles from before the recent gib fixes?
[18:25:21] <mrsun> yes, but the cutting was before that also :P
[18:25:24] <mrsun> so gonna recheck it
[18:25:41] <mrsun> hooked up a digital caliper and looks like on X i got some backlash left
[18:25:59] <mrsun> on Y its righ ton the money no matter how far i move
[18:26:24] <mrsun> that was checked after gib fixes :P
[18:27:32] <archivist> I dont trust backlash comp too much as there is wear too, I rotate on the rotary so I am coming from one direction on x or y usually
[18:28:20] <tjb1> archivist: Is there a video that shows how to do that?
[18:28:28] <tjb1> The tranpose geometry thing
[18:28:50] <tjb1> I know in inventor you could click a button and grab the edge or lines in a solid and bring it to the current sketch
[18:28:57] <mrsun> archivist, nop but kinda the only option i have right now
[18:29:11] <mrsun> do not manage to get it any better with the nut adjustments on the mill
[18:29:52] <archivist> tjb1, you draw a line above a feature it will snap to it
[18:30:11] <tjb1> This wasnt a straight line though, it was an arc that had no areas to snap to
[18:30:13] <mrsun> need to redo the screws also .. my last attempt ended up with off center motor axle to screw :P
[18:30:15] <mrsun> hehe
[18:30:48] <archivist> tjb1, use the right arc type to get a sensible snap
[18:31:22] <tjb1> I wish I had some formal training in solidworks
[18:31:32] <tjb1> seems like everything I do requires 10 extra steps and seems half-asses :P
[18:31:35] <tjb1> assed
[18:31:52] <archivist> tjb1, I have had one day demo, read the help and play
[18:32:49] <archivist> it can be sensible to add axes for construction
[18:33:10] <tjb1> I have to figure out where the add axis button is
[18:33:15] <archivist> usually its trivial to snap to arc centers though
[18:33:20] <tjb1> I can only real do simple drawings and assemblies though

[19:57:24] <andypugh> In Inventor you can just type mm or in if you want a dimension to be other than the default for the document.
[19:58:05] <tjb1> I changed the units but it didnt change the drawing…oh well
[19:58:12] <archivist> you can insert either in solidworks
[19:59:19] <andypugh> You probbaly need to edit the dimension style.

[20:37:52] <mrsun> should be 15 all the way around
[20:38:28] <mrsun> but atleast better then 14.5mm on one edge :P

[22:47:13] <andypugh> That's the question, certainly.
[22:47:39] <andypugh> I wonder how accurate the thermocouple is?
[22:55:08] <mrsun> probably not calibrated for body temperature measurment ? :P
[22:55:25] <andypugh> It's a K-type, so I would think not.
[22:55:27] <mrsun> from what i understand thermometers for body is calibrated to measure it

[23:41:03] <Valen> andypugh: theres a long lasting virus going around at the moment
[23:41:18] <Valen> like a low grade flu but it seems to affect the sinuses
[23:41:46] <Valen> measuring your body temp without a virus is a good plan too, people run at different temperatures
[23:42:00] <Valen> my missus is about 1C warmer than i am normally
[23:50:16] <tjtr33> this morning nevyn ( from oz) showed his hackerspace's work, linuxcnc & arduino (jogging).
[23:50:22] <tjtr33> His overall diagram was done in DIA, but looked UML. I didnt know DIA handled UML, but does, and the idea maybe of use for some documentation.
