[00:00:21] <andypugh> I was using whale oil for heat treatment in the 90s
[00:01:16] <andypugh> I think the reasoning was that it worked, they had hundreds of gallons in stock, and _not_ using it all up would be morally worse.

[10:33:51] <MacGalempsy> anyone around to help me out with a potentiometer question?
[10:34:34] <archivist> just ask the real question
[10:36:32] <MacGalempsy> ok. I have two 10K Ohm pots both with number 120-0009, one is to the Spindle Speed Override and the other is to the Feed Rate Override. the only difference is one is labled R1379743 and the other is R9732.
[10:36:54] <MacGalempsy> what does the R-value stand for?

[13:25:54] <archivist> so does beaglebone black
[13:25:57] <Eran> kengu, archivist- and the question is why is linuxcnc is better?
[13:26:05] <kengu> Eran: i did not say that.
[13:26:15] <archivist> in built servo knowledge
[13:26:39] <Eran> archivist: I was thinking of using step/dir servo driver

[13:28:51] <archivist> step dir is what I would call a poor mans servo, because if one axis slows the others dont know about it
[13:30:10] <Eran> archivist: good point
[13:30:33] <cradek> if you want to use linuxcnc, come to it with an open mind and find the best solution to your problem, instead of deciding what hardware to use first
[13:30:35] -!- zlog has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds]
[13:31:20] <cradek> linuxcnc is very flexible and you can use it to implement bad designs as well as good, I have some of each to prove it
[13:31:26] <Eran> cradek: well, agree. I've already built a big 3d printer, rapid moves is my problem now, so I want to go with servos

[13:39:34] * cpresser once started a 3d-printer design for foam
[13:39:37] <cradek> do you have pics of some completed parts that came out well? some of the ones in the video looked like stress tests (things with lots of unsupported holes)
[13:39:41] <cpresser> to print LARP weapons
[13:40:43] <Eran> cpresser: studiounder.com
[13:42:06] <Eran> how hard is it to control a 3d printer using beagleboard?
[13:43:19] <kengu> Eran: i could again point you to linuxcnc beaglebone -search as that is all i know about it. but it has been done atleast
[13:43:48] <cpresser> Eran: in order to use linuxcnc you need RTAI support in the kernel
[13:44:04] <cpresser> which is available for some ARM platforms
[13:44:16] <Eran> cpresser: don't even know what is RTAI :)
[13:44:30] <cpresser> Eran: Realtime extension for the kernel
[13:44:34] <Eran> cpresser: ok

[13:48:14] <archivist> geared axes
[13:48:24] <archivist> pi struggles a bit
[13:48:48] <cpresser> Eran: better invest into a x86 motherboard (intel atom). its not that expensive.
[13:48:52] <skunkworks> Eran, Raspberry pi is pretty under-powered
[13:49:06] <Eran> ok
[13:49:34] <cradek> biggest feature for you is it can control servos without terrible step/dir limitations
[13:49:53] <Eran> cradek: yes, this is what I think too
[13:50:07] <Eran> cradek: all the rest is not really interesting for me (i'm not a programmer)
[13:50:16] <Eran> cradek: just want to use servos

[13:52:58] <cradek> then you probably want to use a pc and linuxcnc 2.5 and servo interface hardware that is known to work well
[13:53:41] <kengu> how are servos controlled?-)
[13:53:42] <Eran> cradek: I will investigate that
[13:53:49] <cradek> you could consider mesa H bridge type drives, or used-market velocity mode drives like the AMC
[13:53:50] <Eran> thank you
[13:54:47] <Eran> cradek: velociy mode?
[13:54:54] <Eran> cradek: *velocity
[13:55:04] <Eran> cradek: how do I find the right servo driver?
[13:55:17] <archivist> some servos also have a torque mode as well
[13:55:31] <cradek> velocity mode is how many industrial machines run servos
[13:55:54] <cradek> yes you've hit on the hard question now
[13:56:11] <Eran> cradek: will be here in 30 minutes

[17:07:29] <IchGuckLive> loding a diameter is D
[17:07:38] <IchGuckLive> if you use CRC
[17:07:59] <IchGuckLive> so G41 D05 loads diameter tool5
[17:08:26] <IchGuckLive> G41 D01 loads Diameter of tool 1 into the interpreter

[18:24:14] <somenewguy> sorry I wandered off
[18:24:41] <IchGuckLive> as we got notice somenewguy
[18:24:44] <somenewguy> I am running a mill and dont use cutter comp too much cause its tricky and I'm new
[18:25:08] <somenewguy> but I have written a few chunks of code I trust that use cutter comp
[18:25:18] <IchGuckLive> its the way to do it as you can mil exact parts with different cutters
[18:25:27] <somenewguy> sso I would like them to simply use G41/42 and not spec what D
[18:25:46] <somenewguy> as I can load that manually and have it "stick" for the rest of the day
[18:26:00] <IchGuckLive> that will might kill you
[18:26:01] <somenewguy> manual tool change, no indexing on my collets, no touchoff or probe goodies
[18:26:13] <IchGuckLive> always use D for your G41/42
[18:26:45] <IchGuckLive> you can mill differend diameter for one cutter with the D
[18:26:51] <somenewguy> but if a subroutine is getting called and has a G41 in it, I would think you would not want to need to pass the D value to the subroutine
[18:27:11] <IchGuckLive> so rought takes lower D and exact a bigger one
[18:28:17] <IchGuckLive> G41 D1 ;call sub<> ; G41 D4 ;call sub <>
[18:28:24] <IchGuckLive> thats the way to do it
[18:28:56] <IchGuckLive> write your sub as you can change the D outwards
[18:29:59] <IchGuckLive> somenewguy:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yM_nP9jEB24
[18:31:00] <IchGuckLive> Best of G41/G42 use is you can see your drawing messurments in the NGC
[18:31:47] <somenewguy> I am a little confused
[18:31:57] <IchGuckLive> i need to make another example with sub involved to change the D outwards of the sub
[18:31:58] <somenewguy> but then the D has to be hard-coded into each sub routine
[18:32:10] <IchGuckLive> no
[18:32:11] <somenewguy> can't watch the video, my connection is horrible out here
[18:32:35] <IchGuckLive> your D holds the offset from the path
[18:32:47] <IchGuckLive> as it is half the Diameter
[18:33:40] <IchGuckLive> your sub shoudt only include the normal path as the drawing showes and start /end somwhere outside the part or path
[18:34:00] <IchGuckLive> so you can jump in as many times on a sub call
[18:34:13] <IchGuckLive> somenewguy: are you in Europ USA ...asia

[20:29:44] <somenewguy> jt-shop, I do use the tool table, no real reaason tho, i suspect a G41.1 would be better, then everything is more obvious
[20:30:11] <somenewguy> also I saw that there is a iirc read only var that will tell you the diam of the currently selected cutter, maybe that is how I should do it here on out

[20:30:57] <somenewguy> question on something that tripped me up comeing here from mach3, is that my coordinate system keeps reverting to G54 during the day. I know it defaults to it on boot up, but why does end of a program revert to G54?
[20:31:16] <somenewguy> at first I thought only if I cancled/estoped, but it looks like hitting a M2 also reverts to the default offsets

[20:36:16] <jdh> I have a Mighty-Vac I mainly use for leak testing scooters, but also works well for bleeding. The reservoir is too small though.
[20:36:20] <jthornton> somenewguy, have you read all the neat things M2 does?
[20:37:22] <Jymmm> andypugh: I like how it has a reservoir fill bottle too
[20:37:52] <Jymmm> andypugh: lol, spare tire, that's slick idea

[20:42:04] <somenewguy> no, I thought M2 was the simple one

[20:42:25] <jthornton> somenewguy, better read up on all M2 does

[20:44:35] <somenewguy> yes I need to re-create my old template I was using in mach3
[20:44:55] <jthornton> have you seen my tutorial on G code?
[20:44:57] <somenewguy> I had copied it, but have yet to put it onto this machine, just a pile of harmless pre and post amble commands
[20:45:01] <somenewguy> no, I would love to tho
[20:45:47] <somenewguy> andypugh: I made one of those bleeders for less from parts lying around, and a few from HF I think lol

[20:46:48] <somenewguy> I take it the M2 is the simpplest stop? I could roll my own, but I think I will just stick to a post-amble with annotations so I can remember what each item does
[20:47:04] <somenewguy> its impresive to me how quick I am remembering who does what, but still a cheat sheet is the best sheet
