Sep 29, 2015 at 2:05 PM - Mike Kelly: like when to use a 2 flute vs 4 flute or w/e
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:06 PM - Mike Glass: I noticed the 2 flutes cut way nicer but tear up more of the top surface
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:08 PM - Mike Glass: Texas is slow shipping for some reason.

Sep 29, 2015 at 2:10 PM - Mike Kelly: i wonder why 1 flute is better for plastic, throws chips easier?
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:11 PM - Mike Glass: Yea, way better
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:11 PM - Mike Glass: to many flutes is too much heat
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:12 PM - Mike Kelly: ah
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:12 PM - Mike Kelly: makes sense
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:13 PM - Mike Kelly: man so many options, it's overwhelming
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:14 PM - Mike Glass: 40 and 60 vgroove, 2 flute and 4 flute, and a plastic one flute, thats all you should need.
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:14 PM - Mike Glass: then a 4 flute ti coated for alum
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:14 PM - Mike Kelly: all 1/8?"
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:15 PM - Mike Kelly: should i get any like 1/16"
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:15 PM - Mike Glass: not unless your engraving
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:15 PM - Mike Glass: which the v40 is super tiny as it is.

Sep 29, 2015 at 2:17 PM - Mike Kelly: the single has that V groove on the tip but the others are flat, i figure the flat is better?
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:19 PM - Mike Glass: flat?
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:19 PM - Mike Glass: guess in person they look flat
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:20 PM - Mike Kelly: oh derp i linked the same thing twice
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:20 PM - Mike Kelly: http://www.ebay.com/itm/5-1-8-1250-2-FLUTE-CARBIDE-ENDMILLS-NEW-/381173864944?hash=item58bfbb99f0
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:20 PM - Mike Kelly: those
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:22 PM - Mike Glass: yea depends on the depth of the cut you want those only go to .500 as they have the stops on them.
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:23 PM - Mike Kelly: you can't remove those stops?
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:23 PM - Mike Glass: I suppose you could break them off.
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:24 PM - Mike Glass: it makes it nice when doing a tool change though
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:24 PM - Mike Glass: they are all the same length to the tip
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:24 PM - Mike Kelly: ah
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:27 PM - Mike Kelly: did you mean 45 degree or 40
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:28 PM - Mike Glass: oh 45
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:28 PM - Mike Glass: I dont know where I keep on thinking 40
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:29 PM - Mike Kelly: i was confused cause i wasn't seeing a 40
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:29 PM - Mike Kelly: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-8-1250-CA...-Microtools-/151760702517?hash=item2355a48c35 this good for the 2 flute?
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:30 PM - Mike Kelly: and i assume this is the same as a V: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-8-1250-CA...-Microtools-/151760702517?hash=item2355a48c35
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:32 PM - Mike Kelly: and a 4 flute: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-8-1250-CA...-Microtools-/381322887247?hash=item58c89d804f
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:32 PM - Mike Glass: No v grooove 45 if you want to do fine lettering or engraving on wood or plastics.
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:32 PM - Mike Glass: that 4 flue is the one I have\
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:33 PM - Mike Glass: I also got a 1/4 ti coated bit
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:34 PM - Mike Glass: I have the 30 -40 - 60 vgrooves like these http://www.ebay.com/itm/380680013520?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

Sep 29, 2015 at 2:35 PM - Mike Kelly: except 1/8"
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:35 PM - Mike Kelly: the picture on that one isn't showing up but it says it has 2 flutes
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:35 PM - Mike Glass: yea but those could be usefull for making bigger signs
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:36 PM - Mike Glass: have to keep those in mind
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:37 PM - Mike Glass: need to find a ballmill end also in 1/4 for lettering.
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:47 PM - daniel871: Got an email about the firmware to use as a starting point for the rambo.
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:47 PM - daniel871: https://github.com/tonokip/Marlin/tree/1.0.2-TRP
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:47 PM - daniel871: This firmware requires a change in Configuration.h: #define MOTHERBOARD 302 #define REPRAP_DISCOUNT_SMART_CONTROLLER
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:48 PM - daniel871: VS. 301 from the notes in the firmware Robo was working from.
Sep 29, 2015 at 2:48 PM - Mike Glass: I thought it was 33

Sep 29, 2015 at 3:07 PM - Mike Kelly: those bits you just linked have a ball end though
Sep 29, 2015 at 3:11 PM - Mike Glass: these are the ones I got today, just search for 22 cel and find one you want, it will allow you to cut 3/4 stock. http://www.ebay.com/itm/141051903395?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

Sep 29, 2015 at 3:12 PM - Mike Glass: I have the 4 and the 2 flute, but those I got of amazon and they are out of stock now, but the are ti coated
Sep 29, 2015 at 3:12 PM - Mike Kelly: what's good/bad about ti coating
Sep 29, 2015 at 3:13 PM - Mike Glass: I think it makes them stay sharper longer
Sep 29, 2015 at 3:13 PM - Mike Kelly: right i figured it was a good thing
Sep 29, 2015 at 3:13 PM - Mike Glass: I just got them cause it was 10 for $20, they work really well.
Sep 29, 2015 at 3:14 PM - Mike Glass: and didnt have any 2 flute
Sep 29, 2015 at 3:15 PM - Mike Kelly: ah

Sep 29, 2015 at 6:30 PM - Mike Kelly: Not there yet
Sep 29, 2015 at 6:40 PM - Mike Kelly: Got to fit the nuts into the roller blocks then run the gt2 then it's onto wiring
Sep 29, 2015 at 7:13 PM - Mike Glass: what oz steppers are those, they look small.
Sep 29, 2015 at 7:22 PM - Mike Kelly: 48iirc

Sep 29, 2015 at 7:48 PM - Mattchu: evening all
Sep 29, 2015 at 7:49 PM - Mattchu: hey MG, who makes your laser cutter?
Sep 29, 2015 at 7:51 PM - Mike Glass: some little chinese man
Sep 29, 2015 at 7:52 PM - Mattchu: lol
Sep 29, 2015 at 7:52 PM - Mike Glass: inc-motion.com is on the drivers
Sep 29, 2015 at 8:11 PM - Mattchu: I dunno what that is, MG lol
Sep 29, 2015 at 8:20 PM - Mike Glass: got the network controller working on it, cant read the display its in chinese..lol
Sep 29, 2015 at 8:21 PM - Mattchu: lmao
Sep 29, 2015 at 8:24 PM - Mike Glass: ok youtube to the rescue now its in engrish
Sep 29, 2015 at 8:27 PM - Mattchu: hahaha, I love that stuff
Sep 29, 2015 at 8:31 PM - Mattchu: I want to print...at the same time...I don't want to print, hahaha.
Sep 29, 2015 at 8:32 PM - Mattchu: hey MG, you use S3D to control your printer? how do you tell it to move in one direction?
Sep 29, 2015 at 8:33 PM - Mattchu: oh damn, there they are
Sep 29, 2015 at 8:35 PM - Mike Glass: yeah you have to fine the damn tab
Sep 29, 2015 at 8:39 PM - Mattchu: And I'm done with it. lol, something about it just...irks me. I think it'd be better if I had a space mouse

 

Sep 30, 2015 4:59 AM - jbigler1986: S3D is by far the best slicer
Sep 30, 2015 5:08 AM - daniel871: I think he was talking about the machine control panel it has.
Sep 30, 2015 5:08 AM - jbigler1986: it's not bad
Sep 30, 2015 5:09 AM - daniel871: Not sure what he was trying to do, really.
Sep 30, 2015 5:10 AM - jbigler1986: i have to redo my wiring before i can run another print. to much stuff hanging down and zip tied together. causing the x axis to jump because shit is in the way
Sep 30, 2015 5:14 AM - daniel871: Going to try the Ultimachine firmware modified for the Frankenrobo later today.
Sep 30, 2015 5:15 AM - daniel871: Also Octopi with a webcam setup.
Sep 30, 2015 5:16 AM - jbigler1986: nice
Sep 30, 2015 5:16 AM - jbigler1986: i need to try octopi or an alternate again
Sep 30, 2015 5:17 AM - JeffTheMess: morning robonauts
Sep 30, 2015 5:39 AM - jbigler1986: morning
Sep 30, 2015 6:33 AM - JeffTheMess: many tumble weeds here in the AM now
Sep 30, 2015 6:34 AM - NFOsec: greetings if anyone is even here..
Sep 30, 2015 6:34 AM - NFOsec: man, I should have told MG about the settings for the chinese to english panel.
Sep 30, 2015 6:35 AM - jbigler1986: lol
Sep 30, 2015 6:35 AM - NFOsec: that was a minor detail I forgot to mention, but I'm sure he found the answer.
Sep 30, 2015 6:42 AM - NFOsec: jbig: do you know how folks are slicing up large objects to build prints?
Sep 30, 2015 6:43 AM - NFOsec: I know in S3D, anything below the plane gets cut off, but tht wouldn't be the precision of a slice.
Sep 30, 2015 6:46 AM - JeffTheMess: do it in your design software
Sep 30, 2015 6:48 AM - JeffTheMess: you'll get better cuts the way you like them
Sep 30, 2015 6:51 AM - NFOsec: yeah, makes sensee enough.
Sep 30, 2015 6:52 AM - jbigler1986: you mean parts that you have to print in pieces then assemble?
Sep 30, 2015 6:53 AM - jbigler1986: i like to puzzle cut parts. makes it easy to assemble and works really well
Sep 30, 2015 6:54 AM - JeffTheMess: http://www.instructables.com/id/Use-NetFabb-to-segment-an-STL-file-and-print-it-bi/ look at this NFO
Sep 30, 2015 6:54 AM - JeffTheMess: i prefer to do it inventor but you can try netfabb
Sep 30, 2015 6:55 AM - NFOsec: Inventor?
Sep 30, 2015 6:56 AM - NFOsec: mmm.. the NetFabb private is $299, free might have constraints, but looks like a decent program.
Sep 30, 2015 6:57 AM - NFOsec: whoa, there are some pretty decent features in this thing.
Sep 30, 2015 6:58 AM - JeffTheMess: autodesk inventor
Sep 30, 2015 6:58 AM - JeffTheMess: yeah they have good stuff in it
Sep 30, 2015 7:00 AM - jbigler1986: i puzzle cut in Solidworks
Sep 30, 2015 7:00 AM - jbigler1986: if you know how to use openscad you can do it with that too
Sep 30, 2015 7:00 AM - jbigler1986: yeah netfabb is nice. I use it to cut parts when i need to remove something
Sep 30, 2015 7:01 AM - JeffTheMess: puzzle cut is a feature in SW?
Sep 30, 2015 7:03 AM - jbigler1986: I just sketch the puzzle cut however I want it. then give it whatever tolerance you need for your printer
Sep 30, 2015 7:03 AM - jbigler1986: last one i did was .2 tolerance I think
Sep 30, 2015 7:04 AM - JeffTheMess: nice
Sep 30, 2015 7:11 AM - Mike Kelly: morning
Sep 30, 2015 7:12 AM - jbigler1986: hola
Sep 30, 2015 7:13 AM - JeffTheMess: wazup
Sep 30, 2015 7:13 AM - Mike Kelly: did you see the cnc progress?
Sep 30, 2015 7:13 AM - jbigler1986: looks good
Sep 30, 2015 7:13 AM - jbigler1986: i need to make one
Sep 30, 2015 7:13 AM - JeffTheMess: ooohh can I see
Sep 30, 2015 7:14 AM - Mike Kelly: once you get the corners in, it comes together quickly
Sep 30, 2015 7:14 AM - Mike Kelly:
Sep 30, 2015 7:14 AM - jbigler1986: how long will it take to cut a part
Sep 30, 2015 7:14 AM - Mike Kelly: that i have no idea on
Sep 30, 2015 7:15 AM - JeffTheMess: nice
Sep 30, 2015 7:15 AM - JeffTheMess: how much more is left for you?
Sep 30, 2015 7:15 AM - jbigler1986: looks like belts and wiring
Sep 30, 2015 7:16 AM - Mike Kelly: pretty much
Sep 30, 2015 7:17 AM - Mike Kelly: i can't get the nuts in on the roller blocks
Sep 30, 2015 7:17 AM - Mike Kelly: i think i need to heat set them, which worries me because they're nylok
Sep 30, 2015 7:17 AM - jbigler1986: where are they missing from?
Sep 30, 2015 7:19 AM - Mike Kelly:
Sep 30, 2015 7:23 AM - Mike Kelly: i think there's some things I want to redesign about this, he doesn't given enough material around screw points
Sep 30, 2015 7:23 AM - Mike Kelly: not do his hex patterns that are supposed to lock the nuts actually work
Sep 30, 2015 7:24 AM - jbigler1986: what are those nuts supposed to be for?
Sep 30, 2015 7:25 AM - Mike Kelly: the red part above where i circled uses 2 screws into those nuts which clamps down the conduit
Sep 30, 2015 7:26 AM - jbigler1986: gotcha. are there bolt holes in the clamp? maybe i just cant see them
Sep 30, 2015 7:27 AM - Mike Kelly: there are it's just not the right angle
Sep 30, 2015 7:29 AM - jbigler1986: is it wide enough for 2 bolts? or is it just one on each end
Sep 30, 2015 7:30 AM - Mike Kelly: it uses 2, the other side just kinda slides into a groove
Sep 30, 2015 7:30 AM - Mike Kelly: lemme snap a shot from my model
Sep 30, 2015 7:32 AM - Mike Kelly:
Sep 30, 2015 7:33 AM - jbigler1986: that isn't a lot of meat there
Sep 30, 2015 7:34 AM - jbigler1986: i would be worried about the part splitting
Sep 30, 2015 7:34 AM - Mike Kelly: it definitely happens a lot
Sep 30, 2015 7:35 AM - jbigler1986: anyway to redesign that a little?
Sep 30, 2015 7:37 AM - Mike Kelly: i think i'd need to redesign the roller block
Sep 30, 2015 7:37 AM - Mike Kelly: but yeah he really left a lot of weak points all around this thing
Sep 30, 2015 7:37 AM - Mike Kelly: and didn't leave ANY tolerance really
Sep 30, 2015 7:38 AM - jbigler1986: that sucks. that should be a strong point since it's a clamp
Sep 30, 2015 7:44 AM - Mike Kelly: seriously
Sep 30, 2015 7:44 AM - Mike Kelly: so there's some work to be done
Sep 30, 2015 7:45 AM - Mike Kelly: but i'll worry about that once i get it running

Sep 30, 2015 8:04 AM - donhuevo: back to OSHA...
Sep 30, 2015 8:13 AM - donhuevo:
Sep 30, 2015 8:13 AM - Mike Kelly: seems safe
Sep 30, 2015 8:14 AM - donhuevo: face protection...
Sep 30, 2015 8:15 AM - Mike Kelly: i think i saw that in lucky number slevin
Sep 30, 2015 8:15 AM - donhuevo: I remember liking that movie. may have to dig it out
Sep 30, 2015 8:17 AM - jbigler1986: wtf on the first fork truck pic. some people should be locked in a house and never let out
Sep 30, 2015 8:19 AM - donhuevo: I have more but I'll stop here...
Sep 30, 2015 8:21 AM - donhuevo: if you remove stupidity from our equation, the earth would have been overpopulated centuries ago
Sep 30, 2015 8:21 AM - Mike Glass: : ()
Sep 30, 2015 8:22 AM - donhuevo: Oh la mg
Sep 30, 2015 8:22 AM - Mike Glass: ello

 

Sep 30, 2015 8:22 AM - Mike Glass: well isis struck again this morning on our datacenter
Sep 30, 2015 8:23 AM - Mike Glass: The cut both powers to our chiller this time.
Sep 30, 2015 8:23 AM - donhuevo: not cool. literally.
Sep 30, 2015 8:24 AM - NFOsec: ni hao Mike Glass.
Sep 30, 2015 8:24 AM - NFOsec: is isis a code word for information systems idiot support?
Sep 30, 2015 8:25 AM - Mike Glass: im not mandrin..lol
Sep 30, 2015 8:25 AM - NFOsec: that was simplified chinese man.
Sep 30, 2015 8:25 AM - NFOsec: you know, like the simple instructions I forgot to share with you about changing the LCD readout to english.
Sep 30, 2015 8:25 AM - donhuevo: a salami steak-um
Sep 30, 2015 8:25 AM - NFOsec: did you get it or?
Sep 30, 2015 8:25 AM - Mike Glass: mandarin chinese
Sep 30, 2015 8:25 AM - Mike Glass: yes it means hello
Sep 30, 2015 8:26 AM - NFOsec: xie xie
Sep 30, 2015 8:26 AM - jbigler1986: salami is delicious
Sep 30, 2015 8:26 AM - jbigler1986: so is steak
Sep 30, 2015 8:26 AM - NFOsec: Cōngmíng de lǘzi
Sep 30, 2015 8:26 AM - Mike Glass: it was a 2 second find on youtube so no biggie, im all connected with the network with the program now.
Sep 30, 2015 8:27 AM - jbigler1986: 他有一个聪明的女朋友
Sep 30, 2015 8:27 AM - donhuevo: what'd you call me?
Sep 30, 2015 8:27 AM - NFOsec: 聪明的驴子
Sep 30, 2015 8:27 AM - NFOsec: a unicorn.
Sep 30, 2015 8:27 AM - NFOsec: nwahahaha. smart ass.
Sep 30, 2015 8:27 AM - Mike Glass: I thought it read " I like Porn"
Sep 30, 2015 8:28 AM - NFOsec: so, what was the result last night MG?
Sep 30, 2015 8:28 AM - Mike Glass: I hit the power button..lol
Sep 30, 2015 8:29 AM - Mike Glass: I forgot to grab a bucket for the water last night, so that will be tonights test.
Sep 30, 2015 8:29 AM - Mike Glass: Still dont know what the white tape is for
Sep 30, 2015 8:30 AM - Mike Glass: its not really a sealing tape like I thought it was
Sep 30, 2015 8:31 AM - Mike Glass: is yours sealed with foam tape on the doors or anything, mine has nothing, suppose there is enough air pull it shouldnt matter.
Sep 30, 2015 8:32 AM - NFOsec: That's what I mentioned to you before. Even if it was or wasn't sealed, you're always going to have some minor residual smell with some laser work, but no, mine are not sealed.
Sep 30, 2015 8:33 AM - NFOsec: but, it might not be a bad idea because sometimes I run into negative pressure, so I literally open the hood about an inch to promote the draw.
Sep 30, 2015 8:33 AM - Mike Glass: That fan kicks alot of pressure
Sep 30, 2015 8:33 AM - NFOsec: yeah.
Sep 30, 2015 8:34 AM - NFOsec: well, so tonight may be the day?
Sep 30, 2015 8:34 AM - Mike Glass: if its too tight it may not draw enough, makes sense.
Sep 30, 2015 8:35 AM - Mike Glass: I couldnt fine any 6 to 4inch adaptors that would work, so will just use what I have for now.
Sep 30, 2015 8:35 AM - NFOsec: yeah. like anything makes sense to an old man like me.
Sep 30, 2015 8:35 AM - Mike Glass: Still concerned about the bed being like it is though
Sep 30, 2015 8:35 AM - Mattchu: yeah was trying to use S3D for the machin econtrol panel...I nearly threw the mouse hahaha...slicer, as a CAM program, oh yeah, best I've used thus far for generating code
Sep 30, 2015 8:36 AM - NFOsec: well, confirm what side that hole was, I thought it was 6. I actually used self-tapping screws to mount the collar with the reductor and sealed that.
Sep 30, 2015 8:36 AM - NFOsec: so, Netfabb seems like a decent product.
Sep 30, 2015 8:36 AM - NFOsec: I think I'm going to grab the private version.
Sep 30, 2015 8:36 AM - Mike Glass: yes netfabb is nice, specially for fixing
Sep 30, 2015 8:38 AM - Mike Glass: Meshmixer is also nice.
Sep 30, 2015 8:41 AM - NFOsec: I have Meshmixer, it's not bad. but some of the fab stuff NetFabb covers was a bit more appealing. "fixing" isn't my primary goal/tool use.
Sep 30, 2015 8:41 AM - Mike Glass: oh you more into "breaking"..lol
Sep 30, 2015 8:42 AM - Mike Glass: Wait the JB's job
Sep 30, 2015 8:42 AM - donhuevo: ouch
Sep 30, 2015 8:43 AM - Mike Kelly: oh cool a fight in the shop
Sep 30, 2015 8:43 AM - Mike Glass: video it
Sep 30, 2015 8:44 AM - Mike Glass: I hear you on your nut problem MK, that was my complaint as well, thats why all mine have epoxy on them.
Sep 30, 2015 8:46 AM - Mike Kelly: could you fit the lock nuts in your roller block?
Sep 30, 2015 8:46 AM - Mike Glass: yea
Sep 30, 2015 8:48 AM - Mike Glass: thinking about redoing mine and send them to blake for casting.
Sep 30, 2015 8:48 AM - Mike Kelly: that would be sweet
Sep 30, 2015 8:49 AM - Mike Glass: print them 2% bigger
Sep 30, 2015 8:51 AM - Mike Glass: I think thats what he said
Sep 30, 2015 8:53 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah that's correct
Sep 30, 2015 8:53 AM - Mike Kelly: though wouldn't he need a ton of aluminum
Sep 30, 2015 8:53 AM - Mike Kelly: or would you just do the roller blocks
Sep 30, 2015 8:54 AM - Mattchu: testing an idea out...again...*le sigh*
Sep 30, 2015 8:54 AM - Mike Glass: Yea just rollers to start out.
Sep 30, 2015 8:55 AM - Mike Glass: although it would be nice to have some type of ajusters on the bearings.
Sep 30, 2015 8:55 AM - Mike Glass: Hey Matt
Sep 30, 2015 8:58 AM - Mike Glass: Maybe I should just finish my foundry, I have plenty of harddrives for scrap.
Sep 30, 2015 8:59 AM - Mike Kelly: for sure
Sep 30, 2015 9:00 AM - Mike Glass: I just need to buy or make my own water glass
Sep 30, 2015 9:01 AM - Mattchu: hey MG, hey MK.
Sep 30, 2015 9:01 AM - Mike Glass: I have the sodium, just need more beads
Sep 30, 2015 9:02 AM - Mike Glass: maybe call a bed place today and see if they have any
Sep 30, 2015 9:02 AM - Mike Glass: whats up Matt
Sep 30, 2015 9:10 AM - Mike Kelly: how are things matt
Sep 30, 2015 9:19 AM - Mike Kelly: http://i.imgur.com/CvjqcpR.gifv
Sep 30, 2015 9:21 AM - JeffTheMess: cute
Sep 30, 2015 9:24 AM - Mattchu: house hunting
Sep 30, 2015 9:25 AM - JeffTheMess: lucky you
Sep 30, 2015 9:25 AM - danzca6: MK, what was the name of the beer event you went to this weekend? Sounds like it might be worth a trip out your way next year for 750+ breweries
Sep 30, 2015 9:25 AM - Mike Glass: hungry are we?
Sep 30, 2015 9:26 AM - Mike Kelly: great american beer festival
Sep 30, 2015 9:27 AM - danzca6: thanks...now I'm thirsty for a cold one
Sep 30, 2015 9:28 AM - Mike Kelly: sure it's a great time but tickets sell out insanely fast
Sep 30, 2015 9:28 AM - Mike Kelly: let me know next year if you're interested, i have homebrewers association accounts that lets me get early access
Sep 30, 2015 9:32 AM - danzca6: My buddy here at work does as well...we are already talking about plans for next year. Looks like a lot of fun
Sep 30, 2015 9:33 AM - danzca6: the list of breweries and beers is overwhelming
Sep 30, 2015 9:33 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah it's a good time, prepare to be shit faced
Sep 30, 2015 9:34 AM - danzca6: LOL
Sep 30, 2015 9:34 AM - Mike Kelly: you wouldn't think 1oz pours of beer would get you drunk, but boy does it
Sep 30, 2015 9:35 AM - NFOsec: I'm making duck gizzard and beef tripe soup.
Sep 30, 2015 9:35 AM - danzca6: my wife and I went to a wine festival a couple weekends ago and the sample tastes added up quick
Sep 30, 2015 9:35 AM - NFOsec: beer is used to break it down...
Sep 30, 2015 9:36 AM - Mike Kelly: wine especially
Sep 30, 2015 9:36 AM - danzca6: of course sharing a full bottle for lunch with some cheese and crackers each day helped with that
Sep 30, 2015 9:37 AM - danzca6: good times
Sep 30, 2015 9:38 AM - danzca6: BTW, great job on your CNC. Looks really cool. Can't wait to see a video of it in action
Sep 30, 2015 9:38 AM - Mike Kelly: thanks i'm pretty excited
Sep 30, 2015 9:39 AM - danzca6: you should just take the rest of the week off and get-r-done...I'm sure it's hard to think of anything else anyway
Sep 30, 2015 9:39 AM - Mike Glass: Have you seen my video's Dan?
Sep 30, 2015 9:39 AM - danzca6: of your CNC? no
Sep 30, 2015 9:39 AM - Mike Kelly: yes it is
Sep 30, 2015 9:40 AM - Mike Glass: yes the cnc

 

Sep 30, 2015 9:40 AM - Mike Kelly: i need some bits and the 1/8" collet before i can really start using it though
Sep 30, 2015 9:40 AM - danzca6: are they out on your youtube channel?
Sep 30, 2015 9:41 AM - Mike Glass: yea and my thingiverse
Sep 30, 2015 9:41 AM - danzca6: do you do what we all did as kids and slide the axis back and forth making the noises like with toy cars?
Sep 30, 2015 9:41 AM - danzca6: I'll take a look at those MG
Sep 30, 2015 9:41 AM - danzca6: prev comment was to MK
Sep 30, 2015 9:41 AM - Mike Kelly: totally
Sep 30, 2015 9:41 AM - danzca6: lol
Sep 30, 2015 9:48 AM - Mike Kelly: http://i.imgur.com/yLtw1Xl.gifv whoa
Sep 30, 2015 9:49 AM - NFOsec: cute, computer animated.
Sep 30, 2015 9:50 AM - danzca6: that looks like something out of tony starks workshop
Sep 30, 2015 9:51 AM - NFOsec: reminds me of Lamp from Pixar.
Sep 30, 2015 9:51 AM - danzca6: so for the MPCNC, what material did you use for printing it out? ABS? I'm sure you want it to be pretty tough stuff and PLA might not cut it.
Sep 30, 2015 9:52 AM - donhuevo: PLA is formidable if printed at 100% infill
Sep 30, 2015 9:52 AM - Mike Kelly: ABS but PLA would be good
Sep 30, 2015 9:52 AM - Mike Kelly: that's what everyone else does
Sep 30, 2015 9:53 AM - NFOsec: I thought of a cool idea, why not use a lightweight silicone or type of composite in a dual-extrusion and use that to goo-infill parts that need solification vs. gridding or doing 100% at such a fine resolution..
Sep 30, 2015 9:54 AM - NFOsec: kind of those juicer licorices.
Sep 30, 2015 9:54 AM - danzca6: and does it have to be in your team colors?
Sep 30, 2015 9:54 AM - danzca6: lol
Sep 30, 2015 9:54 AM - NFOsec: mauve and taupe are probably his team colors.
Sep 30, 2015 9:55 AM - Mike Kelly: yes it has to be your team colors, it's a requirement
Sep 30, 2015 9:55 AM - danzca6: looks like you and MG went that path
Sep 30, 2015 9:55 AM - Mike Kelly: i like red/black what can i say
Sep 30, 2015 9:55 AM - Mike Kelly: though i might be biased...
Sep 30, 2015 9:56 AM - NFOsec: my colors. or dark blue and black.
Sep 30, 2015 9:56 AM - NFOsec: red/black are great.
Sep 30, 2015 9:57 AM - jbigler1986: pink/purple all the way
Sep 30, 2015 9:57 AM - NFOsec: don's colors?
Sep 30, 2015 9:57 AM - NFOsec: why?
Sep 30, 2015 9:57 AM - danzca6: of course at first I thought MG had Wolverine colors from X-Men
Sep 30, 2015 9:57 AM - donhuevo: what about the Dolphins colors
Sep 30, 2015 9:57 AM - NFOsec: that reminds me, how is the IronMan portal going?
Sep 30, 2015 9:57 AM - donhuevo: jb's teal/orange
Sep 30, 2015 9:59 AM - jbigler1986: Nah. just to lazy to grab a different spool
Sep 30, 2015 9:59 AM - jbigler1986: i like red/blue
Sep 30, 2015 9:59 AM - danzca6: MK, did you see the build the guy did with the full enclosure? That is pretty sweet. http://www.thingiverse.com/make:160594
Sep 30, 2015 10:02 AM - Mike Kelly: whoa
Sep 30, 2015 10:03 AM - Mike Kelly: i should probably invest in some higher torque motors tbh
Sep 30, 2015 10:03 AM - NFOsec: well, full enclosure in that situation could wreak havoc on the parts don't you think?
Sep 30, 2015 10:03 AM - NFOsec: yeah, major torque so you could drill for oil.
Sep 30, 2015 10:03 AM - Mike Kelly: better than dust all over the shop
Sep 30, 2015 10:04 AM - NFOsec: well, isn't a really well designed dust boot and super-powerful-sucker all you need?
Sep 30, 2015 10:04 AM - Mike Kelly: yup
Sep 30, 2015 10:04 AM - Mike Kelly: i need some 4 conductor wiring, though i might just use some of the cat6 cable i have
Sep 30, 2015 10:15 AM - jbigler1986: WONDER HOW STEPHEN IS DOING
Sep 30, 2015 10:15 AM - jbigler1986: sorry for caps
Sep 30, 2015 10:17 AM - NFOsec: WHAT?
Sep 30, 2015 10:19 AM - Mike Kelly: stephen is doing well, i had lunch with him in boston
Sep 30, 2015 10:19 AM - Mike Kelly: they're adding another floor to his house so he's had no computer time
Sep 30, 2015 10:21 AM - jbigler1986: that's a big project
Sep 30, 2015 10:21 AM - jbigler1986: did he find another job yet
Sep 30, 2015 10:23 AM - Mike Kelly: nope he's waiting for a startup to get funds
Sep 30, 2015 10:23 AM - Mike Kelly: he doesn't really need to work since his wife is a lawyer
Sep 30, 2015 10:24 AM - jbigler1986: starting his own company
Sep 30, 2015 10:25 AM - danzca6: has anyone tried printing something like this? http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:838257 Would you use the transparent filaments out there for the "glass"? I like stained glass and saw a few of these that really got me thinking of using the Robo to do it
Sep 30, 2015 10:26 AM - jbigler1986: i knew his wife made good money. didn't know she was a lawyer though
Sep 30, 2015 10:27 AM - NFOsec: danz: that would probably be good in ABS with acetone treatment.
Sep 30, 2015 10:27 AM - NFOsec: t-glase might work too.
Sep 30, 2015 10:28 AM - danzca6: hmmm
Sep 30, 2015 10:28 AM - NFOsec: MK can probably attest to that since he's used to acetone treating slugs.
Sep 30, 2015 10:30 AM - danzca6: that's a good idea. Never did that before.
Sep 30, 2015 10:34 AM - NFOsec: I have no ideas, I'm just a mimic.
Sep 30, 2015 10:35 AM - danzca6: I've seen some prints where the infill pattern is showing through. So doing it solid would be best I think and smoothing with the acetone would really make it glassy
Sep 30, 2015 10:36 AM - NFOsec: yeah, or, you could pick up a diamond cutter, some lead, some broken glass, and a nice soldering gun to do it yourself.
Sep 30, 2015 10:36 AM - NFOsec:
Sep 30, 2015 10:39 AM - danzca6: did that at the Faire this weekend and that is what got me thinking of getting into stained glass
Sep 30, 2015 10:43 AM - NFOsec: yeah, but since I actually made tons of stained glass in real life, I think the fad wore off for me.
Sep 30, 2015 10:43 AM - NFOsec: it was no doubt very cool.
Sep 30, 2015 10:44 AM - danzca6: yeah my dad did it for awhile when I was a kid for a hobby
Sep 30, 2015 10:48 AM - Mike Kelly: god job searching is so annoying
Sep 30, 2015 10:48 AM - Mike Kelly: they put the most vague job descriptions
Sep 30, 2015 11:22 AM - NFOsec: who is looking for a job?
Sep 30, 2015 11:29 AM - NFOsec: Well MK?
Sep 30, 2015 11:42 AM - krouton3: i need to get me a better job lol 7.55 is not cutting it lol
Sep 30, 2015 11:42 AM - JeffTheMess: ouch
Sep 30, 2015 11:48 AM - Mike Kelly: oh super one of my roller blocks split in half, guess i'm printing a new one
Sep 30, 2015 12:00 PM - donhuevo: why don't you stop right there and redesign it how you'd like it to be and then reprint them all
Sep 30, 2015 12:01 PM - donhuevo: just sayin'
Sep 30, 2015 12:03 PM - jbigler1986: i like don's thinking
Sep 30, 2015 12:03 PM - donhuevo: and remember to wear head protection when out in the shop...
Sep 30, 2015 12:05 PM - Mike Kelly: i made the nut slots bigger
Sep 30, 2015 12:09 PM - donhuevo: portable ladder
Sep 30, 2015 12:12 PM - jbigler1986: hell yeah. i want that job
Sep 30, 2015 12:12 PM - Mike Kelly: looks fun
Sep 30, 2015 12:16 PM - donhuevo: again... I think it's stupidity above everything else that's kept Montana from being overrun with people
Sep 30, 2015 12:21 PM - jbigler1986: don't let MG hear that.
Sep 30, 2015 12:22 PM - donhuevo: I meant Montana and every other wide open space
Sep 30, 2015 12:57 PM - Mike Glass: ello boys im back
Sep 30, 2015 12:57 PM - jbigler1986: 7 more days
Sep 30, 2015 12:57 PM - Mike Glass: Montana doesnt have street lights
Sep 30, 2015 12:58 PM - jbigler1986: you do have bison though
Sep 30, 2015 12:58 PM - Mike Glass: yes in the back yard
Sep 30, 2015 1:00 PM - jbigler1986:
Sep 30, 2015 1:02 PM - jbigler1986: http://www.reprapalgarve.com/5.html
Sep 30, 2015 1:03 PM - jbigler1986: looks slow though
Sep 30, 2015 1:07 PM - NFOsec: well, it's probably doing 10mm-30mm for precision, not much different than those that are. Adverts always use "fast" video or speeds to fake out people.
Sep 30, 2015 1:07 PM - NFOsec: hard to imagine buying something with anus in the name.
Sep 30, 2015 1:08 PM - jbigler1986: less than $800
Sep 30, 2015 1:08 PM - NFOsec: I suppose in Colorado or any other heightened areas, a floating Z-axis bed probably is subjected to elevation changes.

 

Sep 30, 2015 1:08 PM - NFOsec: so is robo bud.
Sep 30, 2015 1:08 PM - NFOsec: lol.
Sep 30, 2015 1:09 PM - jbigler1986: yeah. it's 12x12x12 though for less than 800
Sep 30, 2015 1:09 PM - NFOsec: mm.... the guy holding that one part looks like Jim Apple, a person I know.
Sep 30, 2015 1:10 PM - NFOsec: with a $2995.99 3 year warranty for support.
Sep 30, 2015 1:10 PM - jbigler1986: the 16.5x16.5x16.5 version is les than $850
Sep 30, 2015 1:10 PM - NFOsec: I"m not knocking it, but a weighted Z is bound to eff-up calibration over time.
Sep 30, 2015 1:11 PM - NFOsec: espanol?
Sep 30, 2015 1:11 PM - jbigler1986: i would much rather have the bed be the z than the bed be the y and z
Sep 30, 2015 1:11 PM - jbigler1986: i mean just y
Sep 30, 2015 1:11 PM - NFOsec: yeah, that I can agree on.
Sep 30, 2015 1:11 PM - Mike Glass: vulc...anus..lol
Sep 30, 2015 1:12 PM - jbigler1986:
Sep 30, 2015 1:13 PM - NFOsec: pastels and feminine filaments?
Sep 30, 2015 1:13 PM - Mike Glass: hey that looks like my last shipment of esun.
Sep 30, 2015 1:13 PM - NFOsec: that's a new company... feminine filaments -- make sure you know the quality of your extrusions.
Sep 30, 2015 1:14 PM - jbigler1986: i should try a different color of esun. white sucked. Then again white shows imperfections easily
Sep 30, 2015 1:14 PM - Mike Glass: White always sucks
Sep 30, 2015 1:15 PM - NFOsec: so does black.
Sep 30, 2015 1:15 PM - Mike Glass: man had a great lunch thanks to Dell Kace team.
Sep 30, 2015 1:15 PM - NFOsec: in fact, every color sucks.
Sep 30, 2015 1:16 PM - NFOsec: so much that about 6 days ago I was printing in invisible filament. 2" off the table and it still looked great.
Sep 30, 2015 1:16 PM - Mike Kelly: that's a lot of esun
Sep 30, 2015 1:18 PM - Mike Kelly: just had to replace a nozzle after the bondtech spit out the ptfe tube
Sep 30, 2015 1:18 PM - Mike Kelly: nozzles are so annoying, i really need to buy some of those .4mm drills
Sep 30, 2015 1:19 PM - Mike Glass: I already broke mine, they are damn brittle.
Sep 30, 2015 1:19 PM - jbigler1986: how dare you only order 1
Sep 30, 2015 1:20 PM - NFOsec: actually, I think it's by design, the Micron3DP that I used on my Zenbot had a very unique nozzle solution, and they could be replaced in less than 10 secsond. I had gotten 3 from the day 1 and have only swapped once.
Sep 30, 2015 1:20 PM - Mike Glass: it was a whole set from .01 to 5mm
Sep 30, 2015 1:20 PM - NFOsec: these smaller ones are susceptible to a lot of pressures.
Sep 30, 2015 1:21 PM - NFOsec: that sucks.
Sep 30, 2015 1:21 PM - Mike Glass: I bought them for assembling plastic models
Sep 30, 2015 1:21 PM - NFOsec: true quick change of filament sizes/nozzles in 10 seconds was a great thing, that's not the case now, but you learn to live with it.
Sep 30, 2015 1:21 PM - NFOsec: oh?
Sep 30, 2015 1:21 PM - NFOsec: such as building cars?
Sep 30, 2015 1:22 PM - Mike Glass: or Robots
Sep 30, 2015 1:22 PM - NFOsec: planes, trains, automobiles?
Sep 30, 2015 1:22 PM - NFOsec: yeah. robots are awesome.
Sep 30, 2015 1:22 PM - NFOsec: I'd like to build the simple robot in 5th Element: "Do you want some more?"
Sep 30, 2015 1:22 PM - NFOsec: nothing like an easy going bar robot.
Sep 30, 2015 1:22 PM - Mike Glass: my safety glasses just arrived, along with my $50 amazon fire.
Sep 30, 2015 1:23 PM - Mike Glass: glass amost as much as the fire..lol
Sep 30, 2015 1:23 PM - NFOsec: ah. You got fire you got rain, now you should be able to laser again.
Sep 30, 2015 1:23 PM - NFOsec: I don't think I can use another tablet in the home.
Sep 30, 2015 1:24 PM - Mike Glass: now I need to laser the back of it for my daughter
Sep 30, 2015 1:24 PM - NFOsec: 7" Note, 10" Tab3, 7" LG, Nook, and a partridge in a pear tree.
Sep 30, 2015 1:24 PM - NFOsec: well, warning on that.
Sep 30, 2015 1:25 PM - NFOsec: learn speed/power settings best before embarking, otherwise you'll get a charred effect. I am far more comfortable now with mine than when I first got them. I kind of ruined one back, but they were inexpensive to replace.
Sep 30, 2015 1:25 PM - NFOsec: but, phones, tablets, etc. lots to engraveeeee.
Sep 30, 2015 1:26 PM - NFOsec: when you want to engrave photos on wood, etc. let me know, I'll give you a 4-step instruction that will make it perfect every time.
Sep 30, 2015 1:26 PM - Mike Glass: def practice on something first..lol they say use masking first on low power to tell how it will look also.
Sep 30, 2015 1:26 PM - NFOsec: folks blow $500-800 for a stupid product that does the same things but what a joke.
Sep 30, 2015 1:26 PM - Mike Glass: Yea actually that is the first thing I wan to do is a picture in wood.
Sep 30, 2015 1:26 PM - NFOsec: yup.
Sep 30, 2015 1:27 PM - NFOsec: but different masks react different.
Sep 30, 2015 1:27 PM - NFOsec: ok, on eBay, I grab those 12x12 birch plywoods, a box lasts me a while but you know your sourcing on wood.
Sep 30, 2015 1:28 PM - Mike Glass: yea remember 4x8 sheets..lol
Sep 30, 2015 1:28 PM - NFOsec: right.
Sep 30, 2015 1:29 PM - Mike Glass: just put a new blade on the table saw the other day, dayum it cuts like butter now.
Sep 30, 2015 1:29 PM - NFOsec: a good blade is everything.
Sep 30, 2015 1:29 PM - NFOsec: a person with 10 fingers to push the material thru is just as good.
Sep 30, 2015 1:30 PM - Mike Glass: how far can I laser into solid oak do you think?
Sep 30, 2015 1:30 PM - NFOsec: well, depth-wise? I think you can pull 1/4" at 100%, but doing more would require multiple passes, similar to a CNC.
Sep 30, 2015 1:31 PM - Mike Glass: I just need enough to fill with paint is all
Sep 30, 2015 1:31 PM - NFOsec: I haven't done depth tests, meant to, but key is to do it without affecting the integrity of the material you know?
Sep 30, 2015 1:31 PM - NFOsec: oh, that's nothing.
Sep 30, 2015 1:31 PM - NFOsec: laser "routing" is common with thick raster engravings.
Sep 30, 2015 1:32 PM - Mike Glass: Im building a flag and need to engrave the stars on one piece.
Sep 30, 2015 1:32 PM - NFOsec: in fact, it's the most common reason why people buy laser paints for filling in engraved lines.
Sep 30, 2015 1:32 PM - NFOsec: that's cool.
Sep 30, 2015 1:32 PM - NFOsec: you're going to have fun no doubt.
Sep 30, 2015 1:32 PM - Mike Glass: its a concealed vault for a gun, the stars will lift up.
Sep 30, 2015 1:33 PM - NFOsec: the key as I mentioned is that focal distance. btw, the laser head has a telescoping end, I had to work to get mine lose in order to use it.
Sep 30, 2015 1:33 PM - NFOsec: if you get into a lot of smoked-filled cuts,engravings, you'll just need to clean the lens. another easy thing but you don't have to worry just yet.
Sep 30, 2015 1:34 PM - NFOsec: so, I bought the NetFabb Pro (private)
Sep 30, 2015 1:34 PM - Mike Glass: nice.
Sep 30, 2015 1:34 PM - NFOsec: I have a few good uses for it, so I'm looking forward to it.
Sep 30, 2015 1:34 PM - Mike Glass: Think that gets you cloud access as well
Sep 30, 2015 1:35 PM - NFOsec: have to literally wait up to a day to have them validate that you're not a commercial business before they send you the key.
Sep 30, 2015 1:35 PM - NFOsec: yeah.
Sep 30, 2015 1:35 PM - NFOsec: if it came from a personal Paypal account, really? whatever.
Sep 30, 2015 1:36 PM - Mike Glass: hmm seems little strange
Sep 30, 2015 1:37 PM - NFOsec: well, they "validate" before sending key that's all. personally, it's a ploy to get the money first.
Sep 30, 2015 1:38 PM - Mike Glass: well you can download before you purchase, guess its how you look at it.
Sep 30, 2015 1:40 PM - NFOsec: yeah, but a few crippled or non-existent functions lacking, but nonetheless still a good tool.
Sep 30, 2015 1:40 PM - NFOsec: for me, part merging would be 10x easier here than with Design, Invent, or within the CAD realm.
Sep 30, 2015 1:41 PM - NFOsec: even simply overlaying parts in S3D doesn't guarante a good mesh.
Sep 30, 2015 1:41 PM - NFOsec: so you could in theory build out a plate, add or subject feature parts (holes, etc.) with a lot of ease.
Sep 30, 2015 1:43 PM - Mike Glass: thats what I use blender and meshmixer for.
Sep 30, 2015 1:46 PM - jbigler1986: i just gave your info to the FBI MG.
Sep 30, 2015 1:47 PM - jbigler1986: ha
Sep 30, 2015 1:47 PM - Mike Glass: for?
Sep 30, 2015 1:47 PM - Mike Glass: using freeware?
Sep 30, 2015 1:47 PM - jbigler1986: lol
Sep 30, 2015 1:47 PM - Mike Glass: or opensource
Sep 30, 2015 1:49 PM - jbigler1986: did I say that out loud. woops
Sep 30, 2015 1:51 PM - Mike Kelly: indeed *raises eyebrow*
Sep 30, 2015 1:51 PM - jbigler1986: deleted
Sep 30, 2015 1:53 PM - jbigler1986: nobody will ever know
Sep 30, 2015 1:55 PM - jbigler1986: just look into this

 

Sep 30, 2015 1:57 PM - jbigler1986: there. mind erased now
Sep 30, 2015 1:57 PM - Mike Kelly: lol
Sep 30, 2015 1:58 PM - jbigler1986: Apparently, hackers managed to hide inside the company's computers for a long time. The hotel chain warned that anyone who visited a Trump hotel between May 19, 2014 and June 2, 2015 "may have been affected."
Sep 30, 2015 1:58 PM - jbigler1986: wow
Sep 30, 2015 1:59 PM - Mike Kelly: hilarious
Sep 30, 2015 1:59 PM - jbigler1986: that's a long time. shitty security
Sep 30, 2015 2:00 PM - jbigler1986: "The hotel chain is offering one year of free identity fraud protection to affected customers. And credit cards always have fraud protection. So, at most, this hack will be an inconvenience to any victims." really
Sep 30, 2015 2:00 PM - Mike Kelly: seriously
Sep 30, 2015 2:00 PM - jbigler1986: their last sentence there is ludicrous
Sep 30, 2015 2:06 PM - Mike Kelly: lmao
Sep 30, 2015 2:08 PM - Mike Kelly: great design *snap*
Sep 30, 2015 2:10 PM - NFOsec: interesting.
Sep 30, 2015 2:10 PM - NFOsec: there are plenty more out there jbig.
Sep 30, 2015 2:10 PM - NFOsec: shitty security may only be one small part of it.
Sep 30, 2015 2:11 PM - NFOsec: giving MG's info to the FBI is like asking the Secret Service if they have any Grey Poupon.
Sep 30, 2015 2:14 PM - NFOsec: MG: http://www.instructables.com/id/Laser-Tattoo/
Sep 30, 2015 2:14 PM - NFOsec: don't do it man!
Sep 30, 2015 2:17 PM - Mike Glass: 1. Laser Cutter 2. High Tolerance for Pain 3. Aloe
Sep 30, 2015 2:17 PM - NFOsec: yeah. LOL.
Sep 30, 2015 2:17 PM - NFOsec: I would wonder if precisioning for say nails would be an option or not.
Sep 30, 2015 2:17 PM - Mike Glass: insane
Sep 30, 2015 2:18 PM - NFOsec: when there is a will, there is a way.
Sep 30, 2015 2:19 PM - NFOsec: well, I'm going to head out and see what my computer illeterate sister needs help with now -- probably editing wedding photos. may hit the Indians shortly thereafter to contribute to their lights and coin fundraising efforts.
Sep 30, 2015 2:20 PM - NFOsec: MG: I'll be on in a couple hours if you have any q's.
Sep 30, 2015 2:20 PM - Mike Glass: ok I should be home in 3 hours or so..
Sep 30, 2015 2:20 PM - Mike Glass: err 2.5
Sep 30, 2015 2:48 PM - Mike Glass: appearently the irs is to busy to pick up the phone.
Sep 30, 2015 2:48 PM - Mike Kelly: it's almost 4pm i'm sure they've gone home
Sep 30, 2015 2:49 PM - Mike Glass: it said 45-60 min wait..lol
Sep 30, 2015 2:50 PM - Mike Kelly: lol holy shit
Sep 30, 2015 2:52 PM - Mike Glass: just hit the 30m mark
Sep 30, 2015 3:00 PM - Mike Glass: Hey Mike, Yo Mike, Mike, MIKE, Guess what day it is.
Sep 30, 2015 3:00 PM - Mike Kelly: wednesday
Sep 30, 2015 3:00 PM - Mike Glass: oh
Sep 30, 2015 3:00 PM - Mike Glass: that sucks
Sep 30, 2015 3:01 PM - Mike Kelly: yes it does
Sep 30, 2015 3:01 PM - Mike Glass: Tomorrow is my Friday
Sep 30, 2015 3:01 PM - Mike Kelly: that doesn't suck
Sep 30, 2015 3:02 PM - Mike Glass: I was going to take thursday friday off, but went home early monday for the laser
Sep 30, 2015 3:02 PM - Mike Kelly: whoa
Sep 30, 2015 3:03 PM - Mike Glass: dummy doing it barefoot
Sep 30, 2015 3:04 PM - Mike Glass: wow$62 at walmart, That would be nice for the shop
Sep 30, 2015 3:04 PM - Mike Kelly: i've seen plenty more dangerous things
Sep 30, 2015 3:05 PM - Mike Glass: Im just very protective of my feet..lol
Sep 30, 2015 3:06 PM - Mike Glass: I hate wearing sandals
Sep 30, 2015 3:06 PM - Mike Kelly: lol
Sep 30, 2015 3:06 PM - Mike Kelly: i like sandals
Sep 30, 2015 3:08 PM - Mike Glass: knew there was something strange about you
Sep 30, 2015 3:09 PM - Mike Kelly: i need to redo my garage
Sep 30, 2015 3:13 PM - Mike Glass: I was going to do that in my shop but ran out of money
Sep 30, 2015 3:16 PM - Mike Glass:
Sep 30, 2015 3:17 PM - Mike Kelly: snap
Sep 30, 2015 3:18 PM - Mike Glass: thats my friends shop in oregon
Sep 30, 2015 3:18 PM - Mike Kelly: does it really get cold enough in oregon to necessitate that level of heting
Sep 30, 2015 3:19 PM - Mike Glass: well he just moved back from here, but it cost him nothing to heat his home, he has an outside system that he feeds wood once a day, they are sweet setups
Sep 30, 2015 3:20 PM - Mike Kelly: slick
Sep 30, 2015 3:24 PM - Mike Kelly:
Sep 30, 2015 3:34 PM - Mike Glass: Nice
Sep 30, 2015 3:35 PM - Mike Glass: crap, time to go home...
Sep 30, 2015 3:37 PM - Mike Kelly: i think i'm going home too
Sep 30, 2015 4:08 PM - jbigler1986: ugh
Sep 30, 2015 4:29 PM - jbigler1986: Rewiring everything
Sep 30, 2015 4:37 PM - Mike Kelly: ouch
Sep 30, 2015 4:37 PM - Mike Kelly: MG when you get home would you mind sending me your firmware
Sep 30, 2015 5:12 PM - Mike Glass: just make sure you change your z steps
Sep 30, 2015 5:14 PM - Mike Kelly: sure
Sep 30, 2015 5:14 PM - Mike Kelly: did you send it?
Sep 30, 2015 5:15 PM - Mike Glass: aboot to
Sep 30, 2015 5:16 PM - Mike Glass: you have 16tooth right
Sep 30, 2015 5:16 PM - Mike Glass: with 8825 drivers?
Sep 30, 2015 5:19 PM - Mike Kelly: Uh I don't have drivers yes but 16 tooth
Sep 30, 2015 5:19 PM - Mike Kelly: Are those the ti kind?
Sep 30, 2015 5:20 PM - Mike Kelly: I think I have some a4988 or w/e they are
Sep 30, 2015 5:22 PM - Mike Glass: that firmware is for the 16 tooth 32nd stepping
Sep 30, 2015 5:23 PM - Mike Kelly: Ok I can make it work. Thanks
Sep 30, 2015 5:26 PM - Mike Kelly: 11% more on the roller block
Sep 30, 2015 5:27 PM - Mike Kelly: then i can put that on and put the last gt2 belt on
Sep 30, 2015 5:27 PM - Mike Kelly: then it's just wiring i think
Sep 30, 2015 5:28 PM - Mike Glass: saweet
Sep 30, 2015 5:28 PM - Mike Kelly: never thought this day would come huh
Sep 30, 2015 5:42 PM - jbigler1986: I'm wiring too. Yay
Sep 30, 2015 5:50 PM - Mike Glass: how is your cnc coming jb
Sep 30, 2015 5:54 PM - jbigler1986: Haha. Haven't even tried to print the mount. Needed to clean up my wiring bad
Sep 30, 2015 5:58 PM - Mike Glass: im about to test the water flow on the laser
Sep 30, 2015 6:01 PM - Mike Kelly: nice
Sep 30, 2015 6:36 PM - Mike Glass: think im missing a piece on the air compressor
Sep 30, 2015 6:46 PM - Mike Glass: brass barb,, damn
Sep 30, 2015 6:52 PM - daniel871: Well, my PLA Frankenrobo is printing stuff finally.
Sep 30, 2015 7:06 PM - Mike Glass: yeah, what did you figure out
Sep 30, 2015 7:10 PM - daniel871: Best I can tell, the Rambo really doesn't run well if programmed as if its a regular Mega.
Sep 30, 2015 7:11 PM - daniel871: Absolutely have to have the board files for Arduino so it can properly compile for the board plus use the intended Marlin version that is in between Robo's and the current RC Waldo is playing with.
Sep 30, 2015 7:14 PM - daniel871: Also the stock Robo fan doesn't cut it for cooling the Rambo. I put the biggest case fan I have in place so that it basically blows over the entire run on drivers and the main chip itself.
Sep 30, 2015 7:15 PM - Mike Glass: did you get heat sinks for the drivers?
Sep 30, 2015 7:15 PM - Mike Glass: that should take care of it really
Sep 30, 2015 7:17 PM - daniel871: Yeah, I'll add them when they come in tomorrow, but the fan I put on seems to be doing the job. It pulls enough air thru under the robo that you can feel it putting your hand within three inches of the front gap between the robo and the feet I put on it.
Sep 30, 2015 7:19 PM - daniel871: 120mm fan vs stock though, it ought to keep the board cool.
Sep 30, 2015 7:21 PM - daniel871: Now to print some CES parts with the PLA I have on the shelves.
Sep 30, 2015 7:24 PM - Mike Glass: 120..lol that must cover the whole board
Sep 30, 2015 7:25 PM - Mike Glass: how high up does it sit up?
Sep 30, 2015 7:33 PM - daniel871: I've got slightly over 3/4" clearance

 

Sep 30, 2015 7:34 PM - daniel871: And yeah it covers most of the board.
Sep 30, 2015 7:36 PM - daniel871: Still not quite getting perfect prints, but its a damn sight better than it was just a couple days ago.
Sep 30, 2015 7:37 PM - Mike Glass: I have mine at 1 1/2" high
Sep 30, 2015 7:37 PM - daniel871:
Sep 30, 2015 7:37 PM - Mike Glass: because of the flipped fan
Sep 30, 2015 7:38 PM - Mike Glass: err the psu and put the fan on the outside
Sep 30, 2015 7:38 PM - Mike Glass: fan mount there?
Sep 30, 2015 7:38 PM - daniel871: I left the bottom cover off altogether.
Sep 30, 2015 7:39 PM - daniel871: Yeah. Right now I just have the fan suspended from the board with cable ties while printing a proper mounting bracket.
Sep 30, 2015 7:41 PM - Mike Glass: yea im leaving my cover off.
Sep 30, 2015 7:42 PM - daniel871: Well, I'm off to bed. I'll post more pics on my thread in Show and Tell as I print stuff.
Sep 30, 2015 7:43 PM - Mike Glass: cool, night

 

Sep 30, 2015 9:13 PM - jbigler1986: All wired up
Sep 30, 2015 9:15 PM - jbigler1986: I figured the thing was overheating
Sep 30, 2015 9:18 PM - jbigler1986: Almost everyone over looks the board overheating. It causes lots of weird issues and baffles a lot of people
Sep 30, 2015 11:51 PM - Mattchu: evening all.
Oct 1, 2015 1:10 AM - NFOsec: MG: You're not missing any pieces. You need to look in the box carefully, including the water pump box.
Oct 1, 2015 4:57 AM - jbigler1986: morning
Oct 1, 2015 5:05 AM - daniel871: Morning.
Oct 1, 2015 5:05 AM - jbigler1986: so you are printing again?
Oct 1, 2015 5:06 AM - daniel871: Had to clean up a mess this morning. Apparently without a safety cover all of the bugs think an active Robo is a good place to stay warm at night.
Oct 1, 2015 5:08 AM - daniel871: Also, there are a lot more bugs living in the shop than I thought there would be (not so many now, maybe).
Oct 1, 2015 5:08 AM - jbigler1986: bug bomb that place
Oct 1, 2015 5:09 AM - daniel871: Yeah, I'm printing again. Posted a couple pics I thought to take, will try to take some more as I get things finished.
Oct 1, 2015 5:10 AM - jbigler1986: i finally printed a part overnight as well. spent all last night redoing my wiring and adding a connector for the 2nd extruder wires. so everything has connectors now and sleeved all of the cables.
Oct 1, 2015 5:10 AM - daniel871: Might still see one if you scroll up here.
Oct 1, 2015 5:11 AM - daniel871: My wiring is still a bunch of soldering and electrical tape at the hotends.
Oct 1, 2015 5:12 AM - daniel871: I like the connectors that came with the Rambo though.
Oct 1, 2015 5:14 AM - jbigler1986: i need to adjust retraction. to stringy right now
Oct 1, 2015 5:16 AM - daniel871: Same here. Fiddling with 5mm retract and 3mm return on the current print.
Oct 1, 2015 5:16 AM - daniel871: Always some residue that comes out as strings though.
Oct 1, 2015 5:17 AM - jbigler1986: i don't mind "hairy" parts. thick strings I dont like
Oct 1, 2015 5:18 AM - daniel871: The one part I printed came out good, but the multi-part print was stringy as heck.
Oct 1, 2015 5:19 AM - daniel871: I guess at some point I'll get a better bed heater and swap the Robo one off depending on how hard it is to remove.
Oct 1, 2015 5:21 AM - daniel871: The Robo heater quit working altogether. Thermistor was reporting temps and it would warm to about 35c before faulting out.
Oct 1, 2015 5:26 AM - jbigler1986: weird. those aren't very expensive
Oct 1, 2015 5:36 AM - jbigler1986: I hate some companies
Oct 1, 2015 5:44 AM - daniel871: I have a BigBox coming at some point, so I'm mainly weighing whether I should bother ot just do PLA stuff on my Robo until the E3D printer comes in.
Oct 1, 2015 5:46 AM - daniel871: I've heard that putting hairspray on PEI will hold ABS without a heated bed, so I may try that.
Oct 1, 2015 5:46 AM - daniel871: May just be BS though.
Oct 1, 2015 5:51 AM - jbigler1986: worth a try
Oct 1, 2015 6:50 AM - NFOsec: yo.
Oct 1, 2015 6:51 AM - jbigler1986: hello
Oct 1, 2015 6:51 AM - NFOsec: scene from Pitch Perfect: <sometimes I have a feeling I could do crystal meth, but then I think - nah> Hairspray on a non-heated PEI for ABS does work, but defeats the purpose and contaminates the PEI IMHO.
Oct 1, 2015 6:52 AM - NFOsec: hello jbig.
Oct 1, 2015 6:53 AM - jbigler1986: first time having my printer working and cleaned up in months
Oct 1, 2015 6:54 AM - jbigler1986: about to order this pack of nozzles http://www.amazon.com/Mcdectech-5PC...3d+printer+nozzle&refinements=p_85:2470955011
Oct 1, 2015 6:55 AM - jbigler1986: i have had awesome luck with cheap stuff for my printer. everything except a pack of heater cartridges
Oct 1, 2015 7:11 AM - jbigler1986: this place has been dead lately
Oct 1, 2015 7:56 AM - Mike Kelly: yup
Oct 1, 2015 7:56 AM - Mike Kelly: morning
Oct 1, 2015 7:57 AM - jbigler1986: morning
Oct 1, 2015 7:58 AM - NFOsec: yeah, probably because some bozo got a laser and the guy who came up with a huge dust boot cover or a carriage has taken up all the print time for folks.
Oct 1, 2015 8:02 AM - NFOsec: been testing out a few things with Netfabb private version (non-commercial professional version), works quite well
Oct 1, 2015 8:02 AM - Mike Kelly: nice
Oct 1, 2015 8:03 AM - jbigler1986: wonder what all the paid version can do that free can't
Oct 1, 2015 8:03 AM - NFOsec: yeah, in fact I actually damaged some vertices/polys to see what would happen, definitely is nice. I love the merge function.
Oct 1, 2015 8:04 AM - NFOsec: well, there are a lot of additional fixes (automatic, but 3 additional levels of repairing vs 1 or 2 in the free),
Oct 1, 2015 8:05 AM - NFOsec: I haven't seen a matrix to compare yet, but I'm looking now.
Oct 1, 2015 8:05 AM - Mike Kelly: the merge function is a big one
Oct 1, 2015 8:06 AM - jbigler1986: yeah i would have used it several times
Oct 1, 2015 8:07 AM - jbigler1986: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:455507 kind of like our nozzle tool MK. I still use it all of the time
Oct 1, 2015 8:07 AM - Mike Kelly: oh that's nice
Oct 1, 2015 8:07 AM - NFOsec: lots of things in the "extras".
Oct 1, 2015 8:07 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah i used the nozzle tool the other day
Oct 1, 2015 8:08 AM - Mike Kelly: though i feel like i need to reprint it in pla, i think abs is too weak to supply enough torque
Oct 1, 2015 8:08 AM - Mike Kelly: might just be paranoid though
Oct 1, 2015 8:08 AM - jbigler1986: yeah mine is PLA and it takes alot of torque before it "clicks"
Oct 1, 2015 8:09 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah mine is just barely beyond finger tight
Oct 1, 2015 8:09 AM - Mike Kelly: makes me think it's not enough
Oct 1, 2015 8:10 AM - jbigler1986: sometimes I am like "damn is it broke" then it clicks
Oct 1, 2015 8:13 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah i should reprint it
Oct 1, 2015 8:13 AM - Mike Kelly: maybe i can use this fucking monoprice filament, it jams for like... no reason
Oct 1, 2015 8:14 AM - NFOsec: one thingo n the "extras" is the use of Kinect scanner so you can scan parts directly into netfabb.
Oct 1, 2015 8:14 AM - NFOsec: really really quality import.
Oct 1, 2015 8:14 AM - Mike Kelly: that's neat
Oct 1, 2015 8:14 AM - NFOsec: the mesh modifications and repairs and changes are the biggest part.
Oct 1, 2015 8:16 AM - jbigler1986: yeah so many stl's out there need repaired
Oct 1, 2015 8:18 AM - Mattchu: morning all
Oct 1, 2015 8:19 AM - Mike Kelly: mornin matt
Oct 1, 2015 8:19 AM - jbigler1986: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1014396
Oct 1, 2015 8:19 AM - Mattchu: morning MK.
Oct 1, 2015 8:20 AM - Mattchu: dude, that's right bigler
Oct 1, 2015 8:20 AM - Mattchu: rad even
Oct 1, 2015 8:21 AM - Mike Kelly: gotta do it fast on the down motion
Oct 1, 2015 8:22 AM - NFOsec: hello Matttachu
Oct 1, 2015 8:23 AM - Mattchu: howdy NFO
Oct 1, 2015 8:23 AM - NFOsec: how did that line go (a fad a few years ago) WAAAZZZZUP!
Oct 1, 2015 8:23 AM - Mattchu: I've had zero success with the PEI printing to a cold bed...if anything, I've gotta crank that heat up.
Oct 1, 2015 8:24 AM - Mattchu: maybe tape a heatgun to the robo pointed at it?
Oct 1, 2015 8:25 AM - jbigler1986: that's extreme
Oct 1, 2015 8:25 AM - Mattchu: that, or finally ge the time to make that enclosure, hahaha.
Oct 1, 2015 8:26 AM - jbigler1986: or just not print abs. there are alternatives
Oct 1, 2015 8:27 AM - Mattchu: it's true. I am set up with the newer lead screws; PLA probably prints like a dream now.
Oct 1, 2015 8:28 AM - NFOsec: stopped at the indian friends yesterday, made a little money, now thinking about what to buy...
Oct 1, 2015 8:29 AM - jbigler1986: casino?
Oct 1, 2015 8:29 AM - NFOsec: yeah.
Oct 1, 2015 8:29 AM - jbigler1986: last 2 times i went sucked
Oct 1, 2015 8:30 AM - jbigler1986: I need to book a vegas trip
Oct 1, 2015 8:30 AM - NFOsec: sat down at one machine, put in $100, told the woman next to me I should probably do max bet on the first attempt ($25 mind you). went into the bonus round and yielded $3200
Oct 1, 2015 8:30 AM - NFOsec: never been to Vegas.
Oct 1, 2015 8:30 AM - NFOsec: paid taxes on that one.
Oct 1, 2015 8:31 AM - NFOsec: contemplated a dual extrusion, or maybe even buy the R2 Mega. LOL!
Oct 1, 2015 8:31 AM - jbigler1986: Vegas is so much fun
Oct 1, 2015 8:31 AM - jbigler1986: if you want to wait 5 years
Oct 1, 2015 8:33 AM - NFOsec: maybe next year will go, before I die.
Oct 1, 2015 8:33 AM - Mattchu: man, if I had 3200 bucks just before makerfaire, I'd be in trouble.
Oct 1, 2015 8:34 AM - jbigler1986: lol
Oct 1, 2015 8:35 AM - NFOsec: anyone use Alibaba for ordering and receiving stuff?
Oct 1, 2015 8:36 AM - NFOsec: yeah, but it came out to $2200, but thanks.
Oct 1, 2015 8:36 AM - NFOsec: http://www.alibaba.com/product-deta...7421935.html?spm=a2700.7724838.0.0.rYfG40&s=p
Oct 1, 2015 8:36 AM - NFOsec: I want to just get those coins, no need for epoxy art/etc.

 

Oct 1, 2015 8:36 AM - jbigler1986: asks to login
Oct 1, 2015 8:36 AM - Mattchu: that requires me logging in, NFO
Oct 1, 2015 8:36 AM - NFOsec: right.
Oct 1, 2015 8:37 AM - Bill Monroe: morning
Oct 1, 2015 8:37 AM - NFOsec: doesn't ask me to login, just shows a 2" diamond cut commemorative coin.,
Oct 1, 2015 8:37 AM - NFOsec: search: Dual Sided Diamond Edge Custom Commemorative Coin
Oct 1, 2015 8:37 AM - NFOsec: hey bill.
Oct 1, 2015 8:39 AM - Bill Monroe: NFO
Oct 1, 2015 8:40 AM - Mattchu: okay, which coins nfo? I see 8
Oct 1, 2015 8:41 AM - NFOsec: 2" one with epoxy / eagle. I sent an inquiry to the seller. says $.3-1 per piece.
Oct 1, 2015 8:42 AM - NFOsec: Bill: <scene from Pitch Perfect> Excusee me b*tch, you don't need to shout </scene from Pitch Perfect>
Oct 1, 2015 8:42 AM - Mattchu: take it if you live in an area where they'd sell, NFO?
Oct 1, 2015 8:43 AM - NFOsec: whatever that means? back alley?
Oct 1, 2015 8:43 AM - NFOsec: 90% exported to USA.
Oct 1, 2015 8:44 AM - NFOsec: mmm.. maybe I'll buy another robo.
Oct 1, 2015 8:45 AM - NFOsec: wazzup with you Bill?
Oct 1, 2015 8:45 AM - jbigler1986: don't do that
Oct 1, 2015 8:48 AM - NFOsec: jbig: ha. I do love my robo, but I wouldn't go that far, if I did, it'd be to build out custom version.
Oct 1, 2015 8:48 AM - NFOsec: use the dual Micron3DP all-metal hotend/extrusion solution, and have full range of filament sizes and types available on the fly.
Oct 1, 2015 8:48 AM - jbigler1986: I would buy a delta, cnc or SLA
Oct 1, 2015 8:49 AM - NFOsec: I have a CNC.
Oct 1, 2015 8:49 AM - NFOsec: SLA would be cool.
Oct 1, 2015 8:49 AM - NFOsec: delta always looks wierd/cool.
Oct 1, 2015 8:49 AM - NFOsec: SLAs are dropping in price, but I have no clue what's hot now.
Oct 1, 2015 8:50 AM - Mattchu: there's a reason for that, NFO on the delta
Oct 1, 2015 8:50 AM - NFOsec: formlabs is $1k over what I'd rather spedn.
Oct 1, 2015 8:50 AM - NFOsec: yeah, what reason would that be. ?
Oct 1, 2015 8:51 AM - Mattchu: to circumvent makerbots patents (the same way makerbot circumvented stratys patents)
Oct 1, 2015 8:51 AM - NFOsec: ah.
Oct 1, 2015 8:51 AM - NFOsec: never thought much on that, but makes sense.
Oct 1, 2015 8:51 AM - Mattchu: the difference is the delta design is open source
Oct 1, 2015 8:51 AM - NFOsec: http://us.xyzprinting.com/us_en/Product/Nobel-1.0?gclid=CMKgu5fRocgCFQooaQodrO0Beg looked interesting.,
Oct 1, 2015 8:51 AM - jbigler1986: price on the micron3dp is insane
Oct 1, 2015 8:51 AM - NFOsec: but build is a little small. 5" x 5" x 7.9" (128 x 128 x 200 mm)
Oct 1, 2015 8:52 AM - Mattchu: that's a decent build size for the price.
Oct 1, 2015 8:52 AM - NFOsec: jbig: I know, but it is well worth it for a system that can support it.
Oct 1, 2015 8:52 AM - Mattchu: the larger question: what are the materials offered?
Oct 1, 2015 8:52 AM - NFOsec: it's too big for the Robo that's for sure (unless I reduce the shaft from the stepper to the extruder, it is about 1" too long)
Oct 1, 2015 8:52 AM - NFOsec: right.
Oct 1, 2015 8:53 AM - jbigler1986: get a smaller geared stepper is all
Oct 1, 2015 8:53 AM - jbigler1986: the stepper they are using is huge
Oct 1, 2015 8:56 AM - NFOsec: no.
Oct 1, 2015 8:57 AM - jbigler1986: no what?
Oct 1, 2015 8:57 AM - NFOsec: it is 1x1x2". The Robo is 1.5x1.5x1.5
Oct 1, 2015 8:58 AM - NFOsec: stepper size.
Oct 1, 2015 8:58 AM - NFOsec: 2" is "longer", but some like it that way.
Oct 1, 2015 8:58 AM - jbigler1986:
Oct 1, 2015 8:59 AM - NFOsec: the problem is, the gear that comes out of the stepper motor is encased in a tube like a spark plug socket and that is too long.
Oct 1, 2015 8:59 AM - NFOsec: yeah, the length between the motor and the extrusion could be reduced.
Oct 1, 2015 8:59 AM - jbigler1986: that stepper is way, way overkill. especially for direct drive
Oct 1, 2015 8:59 AM - jbigler1986: adds a ton of weight too
Oct 1, 2015 9:00 AM - jbigler1986: this is the one they show on their site.
Oct 1, 2015 9:00 AM - jbigler1986: which is even larger and weighs more
Oct 1, 2015 9:00 AM - NFOsec: I'm so happy that Cybrary.it has added captioning to all their videos.
Oct 1, 2015 9:01 AM - NFOsec: yeah, that length is the only thing preventing installation on a Robo.
Oct 1, 2015 9:01 AM - NFOsec: no, weight is virtually nothing compared to what Robo stuff weighs.
Oct 1, 2015 9:01 AM - NFOsec: I didn't weigh them scientifically, but I know they are lighter.
Oct 1, 2015 9:02 AM - NFOsec: what I like is you simply turn the heat sink, unscrew it, pull it downwords, and the nozzle can be removed/replaced with another size or replacement.
Oct 1, 2015 9:03 AM - NFOsec: and, never have experienced a clog/jam to date, must be well timed steps and a decent hob gear in.
Oct 1, 2015 9:03 AM - jbigler1986: that extruder vs the robo carriage/extruder is going to be at least double the weight
Oct 1, 2015 9:03 AM - NFOsec: expensive, yeah, but it's made in Israel, just about 5 minutes outside of a war-zone.
Oct 1, 2015 9:03 AM - Mattchu: that...I could probably modify onto an existing E3D
Oct 1, 2015 9:03 AM - NFOsec: nope.
Oct 1, 2015 9:04 AM - Mattchu: just the tip area? oh heck ya. replace the aluminum block with the tip block on that micron?
Oct 1, 2015 9:04 AM - NFOsec: you rid of the part fan, the gears, the larger stepper motor, etc. everythin you see there is all you need.
Oct 1, 2015 9:04 AM - NFOsec: not just a tip, their design takes the tip and brass all the way up to the near top of the heat sink which prevents the clogs.
Oct 1, 2015 9:05 AM - NFOsec: most people clog up at the screw points of hot ends.
Oct 1, 2015 9:05 AM - Mattchu: so the brass piece is over an inch long then?
Oct 1, 2015 9:05 AM - NFOsec: like I said, have had great success with it, just not the everyday thing.
Oct 1, 2015 9:05 AM - NFOsec: yup.
Oct 1, 2015 9:06 AM - jbigler1986:
Oct 1, 2015 9:06 AM - NFOsec: different approach, but by design it works, just not widespread yet. company is only about 2-3 years old in this sector now.
Oct 1, 2015 9:07 AM - jbigler1986: they will not make it in the consumer market at that price
Oct 1, 2015 9:07 AM - Mattchu: ...I see what they did
Oct 1, 2015 9:07 AM - NFOsec: The older gentleman (bald one) Arik Bracha went to school and had masters in the US (NY)
Oct 1, 2015 9:08 AM - Mattchu: oh man, that's so simple.
Oct 1, 2015 9:08 AM - NFOsec: yeah.
Oct 1, 2015 9:08 AM - Mattchu: and so brilliant
Oct 1, 2015 9:08 AM - Mattchu: it's the same as the E3d
Oct 1, 2015 9:08 AM - Mattchu: but the thread for the brass? section or the heat sink section is reversed!
Oct 1, 2015 9:08 AM - Mattchu: no ? there
Oct 1, 2015 9:08 AM - Mattchu: no question mark even
Oct 1, 2015 9:09 AM - Mattchu: the E3D one you're always playing a constant game of "did I thread too far/far enough?
Oct 1, 2015 9:09 AM - Mattchu: trying to get everything attached.
Oct 1, 2015 9:09 AM - Mattchu: but because it's reversed on one...it'll stick in place
Oct 1, 2015 9:09 AM - NFOsec: I see. interesting.
Oct 1, 2015 9:10 AM - NFOsec: well, like I said, I've always liked the design concept, but like everything else, the best product ends up being a marriage of others.
Oct 1, 2015 9:10 AM - Mattchu: or...alternatively
Oct 1, 2015 9:10 AM - Mattchu: the aluminum rod is the entire run of the heat sink
Oct 1, 2015 9:11 AM - Mattchu: or both
Oct 1, 2015 9:11 AM - Mattchu: (why not both?)
Oct 1, 2015 9:11 AM - Mattchu: ...this is why I wish I had my lathe set up
Oct 1, 2015 9:11 AM - Mattchu: making something like this, even manual, is easy.
Oct 1, 2015 9:12 AM - NFOsec: haven't a E3D so I can't speak to that.
Oct 1, 2015 9:12 AM - Mattchu: I did NFO
Oct 1, 2015 9:12 AM - Mattchu: it's...similar. they may have all gone to the full rod through method, mine wasn't.
Oct 1, 2015 9:12 AM - NFOsec: I ee.
Oct 1, 2015 9:12 AM - jbigler1986: i have had no issues with the e3v v6
Oct 1, 2015 9:12 AM - NFOsec: see.
Oct 1, 2015 9:13 AM - jbigler1986: can you go bowden with that?

 

Oct 1, 2015 9:13 AM - Mattchu: mine was a V3 or V4...maybe a 5. the 6 apparently is awesome.
Oct 1, 2015 9:13 AM - jbigler1986: what version are you using?
Oct 1, 2015 9:13 AM - Mattchu: me? I'm full stock robo again.
Oct 1, 2015 9:14 AM - Mattchu: I'm full R1plus I believe, or close enough for my tastes
Oct 1, 2015 9:14 AM - Mattchu: you can go bowden though
Oct 1, 2015 9:14 AM - Mattchu: I did...it was a mess.
Oct 1, 2015 9:15 AM - Mattchu: admittedly, I did a lot of things wrong at the time
Oct 1, 2015 9:15 AM - NFOsec: I am R1 + as well.
Oct 1, 2015 9:15 AM - jbigler1986: i meant with the micron
Oct 1, 2015 9:15 AM - Mattchu: oh, no I don't have one jbigler
Oct 1, 2015 9:15 AM - jbigler1986: bowden is a whole different ball game
Oct 1, 2015 9:16 AM - Mattchu: just watched the video, and saw immediately a design concept
Oct 1, 2015 9:16 AM - jbigler1986: just got dual bowden running
Oct 1, 2015 9:17 AM - Mattchu: yeah. I know more now. I don't think the PEI likes the bowden though...from my experiments, that first layer has to be SUUUUPER slow.
Oct 1, 2015 9:18 AM - jbigler1986: pei shouldn't be an issue
Oct 1, 2015 9:18 AM - Mattchu: after that though, it's back to full speed
Oct 1, 2015 9:18 AM - NFOsec: what "video"? I'd be curious to learn more about the types.
Oct 1, 2015 9:18 AM - Mattchu:
Oct 1, 2015 9:18 AM - Mattchu: the one you posted
Oct 1, 2015 9:18 AM - Mattchu: I mean seeing how it went together
Oct 1, 2015 9:18 AM - jbigler1986: just have to be more careful with first layer on bowden is all
Oct 1, 2015 9:19 AM - Mattchu: the e3d is...similar. but on mine, the threaded rod didn't go all the way through
Oct 1, 2015 9:19 AM - jbigler1986: heat break goes like halfway up on the e3d v6
Oct 1, 2015 9:20 AM - NFOsec: Oh, I meant the bowden vs. whatever type. I'm afraid I'm ignorant on the different types.
Oct 1, 2015 9:21 AM - Mattchu: oooh that's easy
Oct 1, 2015 9:21 AM - Mattchu: difference is the motor placement
Oct 1, 2015 9:21 AM - Mattchu: direct drive is right above the nozzle, on the carraige
Oct 1, 2015 9:22 AM - Mattchu: bowden, feed motor is elsewhere, tube leading to nozzle. lighter carraige
Oct 1, 2015 9:22 AM - Mattchu: much, much lighter carraige
Oct 1, 2015 9:22 AM - jbigler1986: ^
Oct 1, 2015 9:24 AM - Mattchu: benefit of bowden is increased motion speed
Oct 1, 2015 9:24 AM - NFOsec: so it's a matter of pushing length vs. pushing short?
Oct 1, 2015 9:24 AM - Mattchu: yes
Oct 1, 2015 9:25 AM - Mattchu: also I think the bowden is a tad bit easier to load, but that's more to do with the loading system on the robo specifically
Oct 1, 2015 9:25 AM - jbigler1986: lighter carriage means faster speed
Oct 1, 2015 9:25 AM - jbigler1986: bowden is more of a pain to load depending on what extruder you use
Oct 1, 2015 9:26 AM - Mattchu: the issue is though, I discovered, if it's too light...you run into new issues. like the weight of the carriage helped hold the zaxis down (my OG robo/bowden set up was waaaaay too light)
Oct 1, 2015 9:27 AM - jbigler1986: just install a counterweight opposite end of the x stepper
Oct 1, 2015 9:27 AM - Mattchu: when it moved to the right side of the machine, I found it lifted on the left...hahaha
Oct 1, 2015 9:27 AM - Mattchu: I did that, but was like "dammit..."
Oct 1, 2015 9:29 AM - jbigler1986: i had issues until i added the counterweight
Oct 1, 2015 9:32 AM - Mattchu: ...I wish I didn't have to work today hahaha.
Oct 1, 2015 9:33 AM - Bill Monroe: back
Oct 1, 2015 9:33 AM - Mattchu: wb bill
Oct 1, 2015 9:33 AM - Mattchu: catch you kids later. time for me to go make some money.
Oct 1, 2015 9:36 AM - NFOsec: l8r.
Oct 1, 2015 9:40 AM - Bill Monroe: ok! the router is alive
Oct 1, 2015 9:57 AM - Bill Monroe:
Oct 1, 2015 10:13 AM - jbigler1986: very nice Bill
Oct 1, 2015 10:13 AM - jbigler1986: what did the build end up costing?
Oct 1, 2015 10:20 AM - daniel871: Hey, Harry! Can I still print the parts for Robby you sent me or do I need to ask you for different ones?
Oct 1, 2015 10:21 AM - daniel871: My RamboRobo seems to finally be working.
Oct 1, 2015 10:47 AM - Harry: Hey Daniel
Oct 1, 2015 10:47 AM - Harry: what part numbers daniel
Oct 1, 2015 10:51 AM - jbigler1986: 123456
Oct 1, 2015 10:51 AM - donhuevo: 3.1415927
Oct 1, 2015 10:53 AM - jbigler1986: there are more numbers than that don
Oct 1, 2015 10:58 AM - daniel871: L103 & L213 Harry.
Oct 1, 2015 11:09 AM - donhuevo: I think the square root of 2 is another one that goes on forever
Oct 1, 2015 11:28 AM - Mike Glass: you are a bunch of squares
Oct 1, 2015 11:30 AM - Mike Kelly: i'm more obtuse
Oct 1, 2015 11:30 AM - Mike Glass: hey Mike
Oct 1, 2015 11:30 AM - donhuevo: I'm generally equilateral
Oct 1, 2015 11:31 AM - Mike Glass: OM Don
Oct 1, 2015 11:32 AM - donhuevo: Oh la mg
Oct 1, 2015 11:33 AM - Mike Glass: whats shakin in homey land
Oct 1, 2015 11:33 AM - donhuevo: 1st of the month, 1st of the quarter, it's Thursday...
Oct 1, 2015 11:34 AM - Mike Glass: ah, my Friday today..woot
Oct 1, 2015 11:36 AM - jbigler1986: weather is cloudy and kind of cold. I'm tired
Oct 1, 2015 11:40 AM - Mike Glass: yea raining/snowing here.
Oct 1, 2015 11:41 AM - jbigler1986: oh god. snow?
Oct 1, 2015 11:41 AM - jbigler1986: not ready for that. I need to change my tires out before snow hits
Oct 1, 2015 11:43 AM - Mike Glass: not in town but in the mountains around us
Oct 1, 2015 12:24 PM - donhuevo: so I'm thinking something like this hot-glued to a carriage so that you could plug individual things like fans, thermistors or whatever underneath and then have a single plug going straight to the ramps plugs in on top
Oct 1, 2015 12:24 PM - donhuevo: http://www.amazon.com/2-54mm-Header...4mm+IDC+Socket+Box+Header+Straight+Connectors
Oct 1, 2015 12:25 PM - donhuevo: separate connector for the hot end heater though
Oct 1, 2015 12:25 PM - Mike Glass: hmm
Oct 1, 2015 12:27 PM - Mike Glass: so just use individual pin connectors for the fans and whatnot
Oct 1, 2015 12:27 PM - donhuevo: I do too and it's ugly
Oct 1, 2015 12:28 PM - jbigler1986: not a bad idea. I finish up my connectors last night. everything can be unplugged now without touching the ramps
Oct 1, 2015 12:28 PM - donhuevo: thermistor 2, hot end fan 2, parts fan 2, neopixels, 3, z probe 2, z probe servo 3
Oct 1, 2015 12:29 PM - donhuevo: that's 14 right there
Oct 1, 2015 12:29 PM - donhuevo: x end stop would be another 2
Oct 1, 2015 12:30 PM - jbigler1986: i did it like 1 hotend (4 connections) on one connector, 2nd hotend on another 4 pin connector and so on
Oct 1, 2015 12:30 PM - Mike Glass: im just go wireless on mine I think
Oct 1, 2015 12:30 PM - jbigler1986: solar powered too right?
Oct 1, 2015 12:30 PM - donhuevo: that would be nice.
Oct 1, 2015 12:31 PM - donhuevo: may as well make it filamentless too so you could eliminate the bowden tube
Oct 1, 2015 12:31 PM - Mike Glass: nope just like nfc
Oct 1, 2015 12:32 PM - Mike Glass: technology we got from the aliens 1000 of years ago
Oct 1, 2015 12:32 PM - jbigler1986: adding teflon tape to the screw top on your carriage did the trick don
Oct 1, 2015 12:32 PM - donhuevo: sweet!
Oct 1, 2015 12:32 PM - jbigler1986: thank you
Oct 1, 2015 12:32 PM - donhuevo: don't thank me yet
Oct 1, 2015 12:32 PM - jbigler1986: why is that
Oct 1, 2015 12:33 PM - donhuevo: prove it works first. print some multi-colored shit
Oct 1, 2015 12:34 PM - jbigler1986: damnit. forgot to order another .6 nozzle earlier
Oct 1, 2015 12:36 PM - jbigler1986: by the way. the $20 bowden v6 from amazon works perfectly
Oct 1, 2015 12:36 PM - donhuevo: don't think I heard about that
Oct 1, 2015 12:37 PM - jbigler1986: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00T3TVUW6?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00

 

Oct 1, 2015 12:38 PM - donhuevo: oh, the knockoff... cool!
Oct 1, 2015 12:38 PM - jbigler1986: oh yeah
Oct 1, 2015 12:39 PM - jbigler1986: http://www.amazon.com/Mcdectech-5PC...3d+printer+nozzle&refinements=p_85:2470955011 damn. .2 nozzle
Oct 1, 2015 12:40 PM - donhuevo: damn is right
Oct 1, 2015 12:40 PM - jbigler1986: tiny
Oct 1, 2015 12:41 PM - jbigler1986: haven't seen any smaller than .25
Oct 1, 2015 12:43 PM - donhuevo: I have a .25 I haven't tried yet but I have something I need to print with something smaller than .4. May have to be a weekend experiment
Oct 1, 2015 12:44 PM - jbigler1986: i have used .25 a bunch. No issues
Oct 1, 2015 12:44 PM - jbigler1986: just takes a while to print parts
Oct 1, 2015 12:45 PM - jbigler1986: it's really nice for stuff that has thin fill spots where larger nozzles might leave a gap
Oct 1, 2015 12:45 PM - donhuevo: this thing... http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:394288
Oct 1, 2015 12:46 PM - donhuevo: it's really thin in spots
Oct 1, 2015 12:46 PM - jbigler1986: would be perfect for threads
Oct 1, 2015 12:48 PM - donhuevo: time to head. Back in a bit...
Oct 1, 2015 12:49 PM - jbigler1986: see ya
Oct 1, 2015 12:53 PM - WheresWaldo: Hey JB, I'm still trying to figure out why you need to pick an extruder. Your description of the issue doesn't really exist.
Oct 1, 2015 12:54 PM - Mike Glass: its a figment of your imagination
Oct 1, 2015 12:55 PM - WheresWaldo: You can't move the extruders different amount in the same move. They are in a fixed relationship. If one moves so does the other, same amount, same direction.
Oct 1, 2015 12:55 PM - jbigler1986: if you change filament
Oct 1, 2015 12:55 PM - WheresWaldo: Still don't see the issue, explain.
Oct 1, 2015 12:55 PM - jbigler1986: nope. You can only extract/retract from lcd with 1st extruder (Extruder 0)
Oct 1, 2015 12:56 PM - WheresWaldo: Are you talking about extruding, or moving?
Oct 1, 2015 12:56 PM - jbigler1986: extruding
Oct 1, 2015 12:56 PM - WheresWaldo: So it has nothing to do with moving, only extruding
Oct 1, 2015 12:56 PM - jbigler1986: that's the only way the extruder (moves)
Oct 1, 2015 12:57 PM - WheresWaldo: okay, but your description in the thread mentioned axes?
Oct 1, 2015 12:57 PM - jbigler1986: It's under the same settings as the other axis'
Oct 1, 2015 12:57 PM - jbigler1986: As the extruder is (moving) it's movements are just extract/retract
Oct 1, 2015 12:57 PM - WheresWaldo: I get it, I don't know if that issue has been addressed. I can go look at their commits since 1.0.0 to see.
Oct 1, 2015 12:58 PM - jbigler1986: You can select the 2nd extruder from the lcd to set the temp
Oct 1, 2015 12:58 PM - jbigler1986: but you can't select it to extrude/retract
Oct 1, 2015 12:59 PM - WheresWaldo: This was the same thing MK was whining about?
Oct 1, 2015 12:59 PM - jbigler1986: yeah I think
Oct 1, 2015 12:59 PM - WheresWaldo: I can check, but I can't test.
Oct 1, 2015 12:59 PM - jbigler1986: I can test it for you later
Oct 1, 2015 1:00 PM - jbigler1986: Might be as easy as adding another option under that menu selection. not sure
Oct 1, 2015 1:00 PM - WheresWaldo: i'll go do a bit of searching, but there are like 4000 commits to Marlin.
Oct 1, 2015 1:01 PM - jbigler1986: http://forums.reprap.org/read.php?146,535580
Oct 1, 2015 1:01 PM - jbigler1986: well
Oct 1, 2015 1:03 PM - jbigler1986: maybe that will give you a good idea. haven't dove into the firmware much
Oct 1, 2015 1:03 PM - WheresWaldo: That's 1.0.2, I'll see if the code was ported to 1.1.0
Oct 1, 2015 1:03 PM - jbigler1986: k
Oct 1, 2015 1:12 PM - WheresWaldo: I think this is the issue https://github.com/MarlinFirmware/Marlin/issues/818
Oct 1, 2015 1:15 PM - jbigler1986: well i will add that guys code to the firmware and try it
Oct 1, 2015 1:16 PM - jbigler1986: if it doesn't work then I will do it the gcode way
Oct 1, 2015 1:28 PM - jbigler1986: WTF is wrong with people http://fox59.com/2015/10/01/woman-d...cleaner-poured-in-eyes-now-happier-than-ever/
Oct 1, 2015 2:07 PM - Mike Kelly: damn just got notice my collet shipped, guess no cutting this weekend
Oct 1, 2015 2:08 PM - Mike Glass: just use a regular router bit
Oct 1, 2015 2:08 PM - Mike Glass: 1/8 straight bit on a 1/4 bit
Oct 1, 2015 2:09 PM - Mike Glass: or even a v bit
Oct 1, 2015 2:09 PM - Mike Glass: or do you have a collection on router bits I guess..lol
Oct 1, 2015 2:09 PM - Mike Kelly: do you think lowes sells a 1/8" straight a 1/4" shank
Oct 1, 2015 2:09 PM - Mike Glass: its not really a 1/8 but its close enough
Oct 1, 2015 2:09 PM - Mike Kelly: i bought a kit from harbor freight with 1/4", 1/2" and 3/4"
Oct 1, 2015 2:10 PM - Mike Kelly: but i don't have a 1/8" to cut the vacuum table slots
Oct 1, 2015 2:11 PM - Mike Glass: doh
Oct 1, 2015 2:12 PM - Mike Glass: http://www.lowes.com/pd_550723-281-1901034_1z0wclj__?productId=50247081&pl=1 the one on the far right is what im thinking.
Oct 1, 2015 2:13 PM - Mike Glass: http://www.lowes.com/pd_12330-353-85213MC_1z0wclj__?productId=1007649&pl=1 or the bosch
Oct 1, 2015 2:13 PM - Mike Glass: it is actuall 1/8
Oct 1, 2015 2:13 PM - Mike Glass: with a 1/4 shanky
Oct 1, 2015 2:14 PM - Mike Glass: http://www.lowes.com/ProductDisplay...gId=10051&cmRelshp=req&rel=nofollow&cId=PDIO1
Oct 1, 2015 2:33 PM - Mike Kelly: the bosch is probably best
Oct 1, 2015 2:34 PM - Mike Kelly: with there was one with 3/4" cut length
Oct 1, 2015 2:37 PM - Mike Glass: 3/4 i did not see
Oct 1, 2015 2:51 PM - Mike Kelly: man i tried submitting a contact request form to this shipping container company and kept getting "your information is wrong" error
Oct 1, 2015 2:54 PM - jbigler1986: MK did you see the link about adding the 2nd extruder to the LCD for movement
Oct 1, 2015 2:58 PM - Mike Kelly: i think you guys decided it wasn't for the current version?
Oct 1, 2015 2:59 PM - Mike Kelly: oh i see so you activate it from the menu then you can move that extruder
Oct 1, 2015 2:59 PM - Mike Kelly: kinda messy but should work
Oct 1, 2015 3:10 PM - jbigler1986: I will test it as soon as I get home
Oct 1, 2015 3:23 PM - Mike Kelly: i remember having a 128kb drive 10x this size: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00YFI1EBC?ref_=cm_sw_r_other_awd_oKzdwbQSE24H1
Oct 1, 2015 3:23 PM - Mike Kelly: probably cost 40 bucks too
Oct 1, 2015 4:05 PM - jbigler1986: not a bad price at all
Oct 1, 2015 4:06 PM - Mike Kelly: nope
Oct 1, 2015 4:09 PM - jbigler1986: damnit. don't see that in marlin
Oct 1, 2015 4:11 PM - jbigler1986: found it. he said the wrong file
Oct 1, 2015 4:18 PM - jbigler1986: it works
Oct 1, 2015 4:19 PM - jbigler1986: its in ultralcd.cpp
Oct 1, 2015 4:19 PM - jbigler1986: not ultralcd.h
Oct 1, 2015 4:25 PM - jbigler1986: you just activate the extruder before trying to move it
Oct 1, 2015 5:08 PM - Mike Kelly: Sweet
Oct 1, 2015 5:15 PM - nonmindo: having a hell of a time printing this giant part using shaxon flourescent green.... had 2 heat break clogs so far.... got that sorted and now my surfaces are all rough, the part is circular and it seems to be stuttering on those movements....over heating?
Oct 1, 2015 5:19 PM - nonmindo: i just stopped this print 6hrs in, so i could see if any one knew.....also want to try configuring cura, but i dunno what settings to use, custom using MK's guide, or use the built in R1 profile, which seems to have diff build area parameters (255/245/210)
Oct 1, 2015 5:49 PM - Mike Kelly: man i need some 4 conductor wire
Oct 1, 2015 5:50 PM - Mike Kelly: don't wanna use my whole spool
Oct 1, 2015 5:50 PM - Mike Glass: cat 6 wire
Oct 1, 2015 5:50 PM - Mike Kelly: i guess i can use some cat 6 wiring, but it's solid core :-\
Oct 1, 2015 5:50 PM - Mike Glass: oh
Oct 1, 2015 5:50 PM - Mike Glass: I used cat 6 patch cords, they are stranded
Oct 1, 2015 5:51 PM - Mike Kelly: i'll take a closer look but i'm pretty sure it's solid
Oct 1, 2015 5:51 PM - Mike Kelly: i think i'm gonna look at adding some conduit chain
Oct 1, 2015 5:52 PM - Mike Glass: nice, I would like to do that but wouldnt work with my table
Oct 1, 2015 5:54 PM - nonmindo: any ideas?
Oct 1, 2015 5:58 PM - Mike Kelly: pictures help nonmindo
Oct 1, 2015 6:00 PM - nonmindo: https://www.dropbox.com/s/sl4uj9i04c4r2yh/20151001_180406.jpg?dl=0

Oct 1, 2015 6:13 PM - nonmindo: im also having a hell of a time getting cura to work :-/
Oct 1, 2015 6:15 PM - Mike Kelly: either filament or slicer
Oct 1, 2015 6:16 PM - nonmindo: well prolly slicer *cough*MC*cough*

 

Oct 1, 2015 6:16 PM - nonmindo: it heats bed, then extruder, then levels... i like to heat bed, level, then heat hot end.... i sent 565 z-.62 as .62 is wht my offesty is in MC, but it doesnt seem to be working as nothing can extrude....do i need to do 1.62?
Oct 1, 2015 6:17 PM - Mike Kelly: use cura engine
Oct 1, 2015 6:18 PM - nonmindo: cura engine slices this part empty, slic3r cant slice it, matterslice can.......this part is notorious for 10+hr slices...
Oct 1, 2015 6:18 PM - nonmindo: its got alot of geometry
Oct 1, 2015 6:19 PM - Mike Kelly: run it through netfabb
Oct 1, 2015 6:19 PM - nonmindo: so i sent M565 -.62 then set my gcode on MC to just M565 and its printing without issue....... when i try and print in cura, it appears to be not taking into consideration the stored value
Oct 1, 2015 6:20 PM - nonmindo: last time i sent a highly designed part through nettfab it messed up tolerances :-/
Oct 1, 2015 6:21 PM - Mike Kelly: if cura is slicing the part hollow it's a bad geometry
Oct 1, 2015 6:22 PM - nonmindo: not cura, but the cura engine and it doesnt slice anything, just 0 values across the board
Oct 1, 2015 6:23 PM - nonmindo: i think if i can get the real cura app running itll be fine.......the first time i tried to print the part in MC it ran 2 hours no issue on quality, then i got a clog
Oct 1, 2015 6:23 PM - Mike Kelly: just setup cura, it's easy
Oct 1, 2015 6:24 PM - nonmindo: ive been trying
Oct 1, 2015 6:24 PM - Mike Kelly: where are you struggling
Oct 1, 2015 6:24 PM - nonmindo: thats the other stuff im talking about that im having issues with
Oct 1, 2015 6:24 PM - nonmindo: its not reading my zoffset
Oct 1, 2015 6:24 PM - Mike Kelly: screenshot of your gcode
Oct 1, 2015 6:25 PM - nonmindo: i sent M565 Z-.62 to permenantly store offset
Oct 1, 2015 6:25 PM - nonmindo: then changed in gcode from
Oct 1, 2015 6:25 PM - nonmindo: M565 Z0 to just M565....it doesnt feed
Oct 1, 2015 6:25 PM - nonmindo: ok sec
Oct 1, 2015 6:27 PM - nonmindo: https://www.dropbox.com/s/5n2vup8uidx00iy/Capture.PNG?dl=0
Oct 1, 2015 6:27 PM - jbigler1986: Marlin seems to ignore M565 a lot for some reason
Oct 1, 2015 6:28 PM - Mike Kelly: well for one thing you don't have any value in M565
Oct 1, 2015 6:29 PM - nonmindo: i sent the 565 via terminal to stopre it
Oct 1, 2015 6:29 PM - Mike Kelly: that's not how it works
Oct 1, 2015 6:29 PM - nonmindo: it seems to be working fine this way in MC
Oct 1, 2015 6:29 PM - Mike Kelly: you need it in the startup gcode for every print
Oct 1, 2015 6:29 PM - Mike Kelly: M565 Z-0.62
Oct 1, 2015 6:29 PM - nonmindo: ohh i was going off the guide in the forums here to store it then just use 565 to recall it
Oct 1, 2015 6:30 PM - Mike Kelly: i didn't say that...
Oct 1, 2015 6:30 PM - Mike Kelly: i think you misread something
Oct 1, 2015 6:30 PM - nonmindo: not ur guide

Oct 1, 2015 6:31 PM - nonmindo: ohhhhh weird, it worked fine in MC
Oct 1, 2015 6:31 PM - nonmindo: just printed a cube
Oct 1, 2015 6:31 PM - nonmindo: brb
Oct 1, 2015 6:33 PM - nonmindo: wait 1 sec before i do this in cura..... is there a way to have it heat bed, G29, heat extruder, clear, print?
Oct 1, 2015 6:35 PM - jbigler1986: Clear?
Oct 1, 2015 6:37 PM - jbigler1986: You really don't want to probe with a cold nozzle on case there is filament on it
Oct 1, 2015 6:37 PM - nonmindo: i derped when typing, ignore
Oct 1, 2015 6:37 PM - nonmindo: the clear
Oct 1, 2015 6:38 PM - nonmindo: i always scrape off / pull out the dribble post print so nozzle is clean for next print
Oct 1, 2015 6:40 PM - nonmindo: ive prolly printed 100 things in mc with that pre print process.... just now finally getting some time to figure out cura
Oct 1, 2015 6:41 PM - nonmindo: yay! cura is printing calib cube!!
Oct 1, 2015 6:41 PM - nonmindo: TY MK
Oct 1, 2015 6:42 PM - nonmindo: now i just need to tell it to print skirts, cause apparently it doesnt by default??
Oct 1, 2015 6:43 PM - Mike Kelly: hmmm i thought it did
Oct 1, 2015 6:44 PM - nonmindo: wellllllll if it did then i have an issue lol, only have the cube printing
Oct 1, 2015 6:45 PM - nonmindo: any way to change infill pattern in cura? prefer hex pattern
Oct 1, 2015 6:46 PM - Mike Kelly: doen't have hex unfortunately
Oct 1, 2015 6:47 PM - nonmindo: hmm...kk found expert setting... ya it set skirt to 1, but didnt print one
Oct 1, 2015 6:47 PM - nonmindo: setting skirt to 3
Oct 1, 2015 6:48 PM - Mike Kelly: you can preview the gcode
Oct 1, 2015 6:49 PM - nonmindo: kk....now to get it to NOT pull the bed all the way back on complete print
Oct 1, 2015 6:52 PM - nonmindo: think i got that, pulled G1 X10 Y200 from the MC gcode end and replaced that value in cura
Oct 1, 2015 6:56 PM - nonmindo: ya, its def not printing the skirts, just goes right into the print
Oct 1, 2015 6:58 PM - jbigler1986: Screenshot of settings?
Oct 1, 2015 6:59 PM - nonmindo: standby

Oct 1, 2015 7:02 PM - nonmindo: beautifully*
Oct 1, 2015 7:02 PM - nonmindo: sorry typing 1 handed........DONT WORRY ABOUT MY OTHER HAND!
Oct 1, 2015 7:06 PM - jbigler1986: Uhhh
Oct 1, 2015 7:07 PM - nonmindo: 100mm/s infill and 90mm/s perimeters shouldnt cause an overheat issue on a 18hr print ya?
Oct 1, 2015 7:08 PM - jbigler1986: Not if you have the ramps fan working
Oct 1, 2015 7:09 PM - nonmindo: i have the little 20mm fan on the case, upgraded, but havent installed my high cfm60mm
Oct 1, 2015 7:09 PM - nonmindo: how'd those settings look?
Oct 1, 2015 7:11 PM - Mike Glass: 18 hr print at those speeds, better make sure everything is lubbed up good.
Oct 1, 2015 7:12 PM - nonmindo: ill run 80/70 then, im sure its all lubed, but im afraid lol....never ran anything more than 6hr
Oct 1, 2015 7:12 PM - Mike Glass: the extruder motor will probably get the hotest
Oct 1, 2015 7:13 PM - nonmindo: just need to figure out this no skirt issue then im going to set it and go get dinner
Oct 1, 2015 7:13 PM - jbigler1986: Yeah those speeds are really high for the stock carriage
Oct 1, 2015 7:13 PM - jim3Dbot: Watchin' Stillers Football
Oct 1, 2015 7:13 PM - jbigler1986: 80 70 will be fine

Oct 1, 2015 7:14 PM - nonmindo: ok so the 18hr quote was when i was running MC, now that cura is (mostly)Behgaving, its saying 13hrs! yey
Oct 1, 2015 7:15 PM - jim3Dbot: Stillers, all day Long....
Oct 1, 2015 7:16 PM - jbigler1986: Long prints you will be fine nom. My longest is 67 hours. 18 I have done tons of times
Oct 1, 2015 7:16 PM - nonmindo: ur talking about Stealers, im talkin bout skirts.....seems the 2 go good together.......lucky for you, my cura aint got no skirts
Oct 1, 2015 7:16 PM - nonmindo: (yet)
Oct 1, 2015 7:17 PM - jbigler1986: Haha. Must be nice to tape chicks and the case just disappears

Oct 1, 2015 7:18 PM - nonmindo: jb, good to know......bout the print time....would you suggest running open bottom on the printer?
Oct 1, 2015 7:18 PM - jim3Dbot: Yeah nonm......Jack Lambert said Quarterbacks shouls wear skirts...Bradshaw offended.
Oct 1, 2015 7:18 PM - nonmindo: lol
Oct 1, 2015 7:19 PM - nonmindo: well skirt or not im starting this print
Oct 1, 2015 7:20 PM - jbigler1986: Do you have feet printed for the printer
Oct 1, 2015 7:21 PM - jbigler1986: Feet and the ramps fan you will be fine with the bottom cover on
Oct 1, 2015 7:21 PM - jim3Dbot: MK, when you are around, let me know if you can't get any 4 stranded cheapo...........got plenty of 22/4 stranded cable from security runs...I own a security company ...Kurotronics Inc..........
Oct 1, 2015 7:22 PM - nonmindo: yea printed feet first thing
Oct 1, 2015 7:22 PM - jim3Dbot: Probably, CNC you should use 18awg for the strength..........
Oct 1, 2015 7:24 PM - jim3Dbot: Going back to the 'Pittsburgh Stillers' oh yeah no Ben fan for his off field antics either..........
Oct 1, 2015 7:24 PM - jim3Dbot: Later Gents....
Oct 1, 2015 7:26 PM - Mike Glass: I would go at least 8 gauge for them 40oz steppers..lol
Oct 1, 2015 7:28 PM - nonmindo: ok printing now.....man the extrusion is much more thin using cura than MC.....

 

Oct 1, 2015 7:28 PM - nonmindo: width per line wise
Oct 1, 2015 7:28 PM - Mike Glass: on just the first layer though right?
Oct 1, 2015 7:29 PM - nonmindo: stoll only on first layer
Oct 1, 2015 7:29 PM - nonmindo: its all smooshing together nicely too
Oct 1, 2015 7:29 PM - nonmindo: still*
Oct 1, 2015 7:29 PM - nonmindo: hmmmm its kinda rough looking now.....normal?
Oct 1, 2015 7:30 PM - Mike Glass: depends what you have listed for first layer.
Oct 1, 2015 7:30 PM - nonmindo: im super worried about clogs, have had 2 so far on this job....
Oct 1, 2015 7:30 PM - nonmindo: all my cura settings are in the las link i posed a few back
Oct 1, 2015 7:32 PM - nonmindo: looks like its "initial layer" and its set to .15
Oct 1, 2015 7:33 PM - Mike Glass: that seems low
Oct 1, 2015 7:33 PM - Mike Glass: what is your layer height
Oct 1, 2015 7:33 PM - nonmindo: yea its the default... didnt think of that, its working, should i cancel now
Oct 1, 2015 7:33 PM - nonmindo: .3
Oct 1, 2015 7:34 PM - nonmindo: can u double check all my settings for the obvious ones....
Oct 1, 2015 7:34 PM - Mike Glass: if it is smooshed good it should be ok
Oct 1, 2015 7:34 PM - nonmindo: ya it doesnt look terribad or anything
Oct 1, 2015 7:34 PM - Mike Glass: I use at least .3 for my first layer and cut back the width
Oct 1, 2015 7:34 PM - nonmindo: sec ill get a pic
Oct 1, 2015 7:36 PM - nonmindo: https://www.dropbox.com/s/01zdo79kqcctp8l/20151001_193955.jpg?dl=0
Oct 1, 2015 7:38 PM - Mike Glass: looks good, little wavy but looks like it worked good.
Oct 1, 2015 7:49 PM - Mike Glass: NFO where are you.
Oct 1, 2015 7:55 PM - Mattchu: evening all!
Oct 1, 2015 8:02 PM - Mike Glass: Hey matt
Oct 1, 2015 8:02 PM - Mattchu: hey MG, how goes it?
Oct 1, 2015 8:02 PM - Mattchu: how's the laser?
Oct 1, 2015 8:06 PM - Mike Glass: trying to cut something tonight
Oct 1, 2015 8:06 PM - Mattchu: rock!
Oct 1, 2015 8:06 PM - Mattchu: waterjet is down
Oct 1, 2015 8:07 PM - Mattchu: one of my engineers has a laser though...decent bed size
Oct 1, 2015 8:07 PM - Mattchu: said I get some scrap from riddout, he'll set me up.
Oct 1, 2015 8:09 PM - Mattchu: er, riddout = fancy plastics company in San Diego that sells scrap by the pound.
Oct 1, 2015 8:09 PM - Mattchu: well, scrap and remnant.
Oct 1, 2015 8:10 PM - Mike Glass: nice
Oct 1, 2015 8:10 PM - Mike Glass: yea keep getting water error
Oct 1, 2015 8:10 PM - Mattchu: on the pump?
Oct 1, 2015 8:12 PM - Mike Glass: think the sensor or the water is backwards
Oct 1, 2015 8:14 PM - Mattchu: what kind of sensor?
Oct 1, 2015 8:16 PM - Mike Glass: flow sensor
Oct 1, 2015 8:17 PM - Mattchu: interesting. so it needs a certain amount of flow? I figured with a laser colder = better
Oct 1, 2015 8:20 PM - Mike Glass: sure as shit it was labled backwards
Oct 1, 2015 8:21 PM - Mattchu: lol
Oct 1, 2015 8:22 PM - Mike Glass: flowing like a river now
Oct 1, 2015 8:25 PM - Mike Glass: ok now I got that fixed time to focus the laser somehow
Oct 1, 2015 8:35 PM - Mattchu: oooh...that...well...there's a trick to that
Oct 1, 2015 8:35 PM - Mattchu: if you've got an infrared camera, it helps
Oct 1, 2015 8:36 PM - Mike Glass: holy crap that burns through wood faster than I thought..lol
Oct 1, 2015 8:38 PM - Mattchu: lol oh yeah
Oct 1, 2015 8:40 PM - Mike Glass: ok here goes nothing, at 30% power
Oct 1, 2015 8:41 PM - Mike Glass: hmm wonder what speed I should do this at
Oct 1, 2015 8:50 PM - Mike Glass: hmm smells it bit smokey
Oct 1, 2015 8:51 PM - Mattchu: sounds about right
Oct 1, 2015 8:51 PM - Mattchu: no idea lol
Oct 1, 2015 8:52 PM - Mike Glass: still at 30 % smoke was flying
Oct 1, 2015 8:53 PM - Mike Glass:
Oct 1, 2015 8:53 PM - Mattchu: shelby!
Oct 1, 2015 8:53 PM - Mike Glass: oh yea
Oct 1, 2015 8:58 PM - Mike Glass: Here is one I designed and printed.
Oct 1, 2015 8:59 PM - Mike Glass: hmm wonder why the one I lasered is backwards

 

Oct 1, 2015 at 9:21 PM - Mattchu: remember that flip thing earlier?
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:21 PM - Mattchu: with the circles?
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:22 PM - Mattchu: dollars to donuts...that's why.
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:22 PM - Mattchu: I'll do a video later about it.
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:24 PM - Mike Glass: ?
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:24 PM - Mattchu: you familiar with cartesean coordinate system?
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:24 PM - Mattchu: with the graph paper
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:24 PM - Mike Glass: yea
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:24 PM - Mattchu: and the 4 directions
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:24 PM - Mattchu: like this
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:25 PM - Mattchu: hold on...being bugged by work.
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:31 PM - Mattchu: okay back
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:32 PM - Mattchu: so what I've found is that a coordinate system shift is apparently common on the budget CNCs, and that's not a bad thing, just...fascinating
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:34 PM - Mattchu: pulling outa quick drawing
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:35 PM - Mike Glass: Yea I see in the program it starts on the right side
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:35 PM - Mattchu: http://i.imgur.com/8dqIo6k.jpg
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:35 PM - Mattchu: so this normal CCS
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:36 PM - Mattchu: x positive to the right, y positive on top, and z positive is you looking down at this
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:37 PM - Mattchu: what's happening is this though, it's flipping 180, pivoting aorund the x axis
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:37 PM - Mattchu: http://i.imgur.com/dQMB4Mi.jpg
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:37 PM - Mattchu: so it's like this
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:38 PM - Mattchu: everything is the same, except now Y positive (or x positive if it's a a pivot around Y axis) is opposite
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:38 PM - Mattchu: Z never changed.
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:38 PM - Mike Glass: the x is actually the other way
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:39 PM - Mattchu: okay, so it's pivoted off the Y axis then.
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:40 PM - Mattchu: this could mean the firmware is set up wacky (I belive thee's a way to reverse it in the firmware), possibly electrical issue (like all motors, swapping one wire spins it the other way)
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:40 PM - Mike Glass: thats just the software if you home it is on the top left
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:41 PM - Mattchu: weird
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:41 PM - Mattchu: so then it's possible it's set up in a different quadrant then
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:41 PM - Mattchu: which adds to the fun!
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:41 PM - Mattchu: (unlikely if you're seeing both numberes positive)
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:42 PM - Mike Glass: probably
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:44 PM - Mike Glass: Think I found it now
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:44 PM - Mattchu: woot
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:45 PM - Mike Glass: will see tomorrow if it still cuts out backwards
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:45 PM - Mike Glass: think I need to seal the back so smoke dont leak out in the room
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:46 PM - Mike Glass: dont need the smoke alarm going off in the middle of the night
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:47 PM - Mattchu: hahhaa
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:47 PM - Mattchu: set up a dryer vent system?
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:47 PM - Mike Glass: yea, but still was strong smell of smoke in here
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:48 PM - Mike Glass: its only like 18 inches from the vent
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:48 PM - Mike Glass: but vented out a window with a sealed panel
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:49 PM - Mike Glass: but may have been seeping through where the windows was open on the adjacent side so may have to get some foam for that side
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:49 PM - Mike Glass: seemed like it was pulling it out fine though
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:50 PM - Mattchu: yeah
Oct 1, 2015 at 9:53 PM - Mike Glass: wow cool
Oct 1, 2015 at 10:09 PM - Mike Glass: see ya later im off to bed.
Oct 1, 2015 at 10:10 PM - Mattchu: see ya mike!
Oct 1, 2015 at 11:15 PM - NFOsec: Actually MG, I mentioned to you that the collar I put my exhaust port on the back of the machine was sealed up with tape in addition to a silicone caulk just to keep it "tight". there was no collar reduction that fit snug so I used self-tapping screws and screwed the collar on to the exhaust por.t
Oct 1, 2015 at 11:16 PM - NFOsec: Oh, and another thing, you can switch the XY plotting details by "reversing". Tomorrow I'll show you those details in RDWorks.
Oct 1, 2015 at 11:17 PM - NFOsec: the shift is actually more of a chinese thing but you can americanize it quite easily.
Oct 1, 2015 at 11:18 PM - NFOsec: MG, you need to refer to the spreadsheets and power/speed settings I gave you for guidance.
Oct 1, 2015 at 11:19 PM - NFOsec: while that baby looks nice, you might not be focused.
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:05 AM - jbigler1986: morning
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:09 AM - Mike Glass: Hey JB
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:09 AM - jbigler1986: you are up early
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:10 AM - Mike Glass: yea, trying to dial in the laser and Im off work today
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:10 AM - jbigler1986: that laser etching fabric is awesome
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:11 AM - Mike Glass: and super fast
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:12 AM - jbigler1986: can yours do it?
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:14 AM - Mike Glass: dont see why not, just have to turn it down
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:14 AM - jbigler1986: is yours up and running yet
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:17 AM - Mike Glass: yea if you scroll up I did a test burn
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:17 AM - jbigler1986: i just did. nice
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:19 AM - Mike Glass: I havent done any focus adjustments yet, just found a jig on thingiverse that I need to print out to align and get it tuned
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:25 AM - JeffTheMess: good morning robonauts happy friday
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:25 AM - Mike Glass: Morning Jeff
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:26 AM - JeffTheMess: morning Mike...off today I see?
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:26 AM - Mike Glass: yea, have some project to finish up.
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:27 AM - jbigler1986: i wish I wasn't at work today
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:28 AM - JeffTheMess: same here
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:28 AM - Mike Glass: Got my replacement dlp chip for the sla projector so see if that is going to work.
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:29 AM - JeffTheMess: your going sla?
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:29 AM - JeffTheMess: (jeez, i've been lost)
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:30 AM - jbigler1986: what happened to the BAP?
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:31 AM - Mike Glass: I have most of the stuff for it but got priorities right?
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:32 AM - jbigler1986: meh
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:32 AM - jbigler1986: i would have been more worried about the MPCNC as well
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:33 AM - JeffTheMess: MG going to have a power house for making things
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:35 AM - Mike Glass: going to redesign my cnc table just not happy with it.
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:37 AM - Mike Glass: yep then the first quarter of the year I get to buy a plasma cutter/cnc.
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:38 AM - Mike Glass: That will be my tax right off for next year
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:38 AM - JeffTheMess: sweet!
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:38 AM - jbigler1986: going to have to build a bigger shops at your rate
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:39 AM - Mike Glass: no, just need to wife to clear her furniture out of the 2 shops..lol
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:39 AM - JeffTheMess: lol
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:40 AM - JeffTheMess: death wish really
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:40 AM - Mike Glass: we have one that 24x24 stuffed full of furniture, so you cant work in there, the garage/shop is 44x36 and cant even park in it.
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:41 AM - JeffTheMess: wow
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:42 AM - Mike Glass: she is taking stuff down to the sister in laws store in another town this weekend so that will help.
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:43 AM - Mike Glass: now my office is full with the laser in here, its freakin huge.
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:43 AM - JeffTheMess: <-- Jealous
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:44 AM - Mike Glass: Im still think im dreaming..lol always wanted a laser cutter
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:45 AM - JeffTheMess: How thick of metal will you be able to cut?
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:46 AM - Mike Glass: on the laser or plasma
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:46 AM - Mike Glass: laser dont cut metal
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:46 AM - Mike Glass: you would need like a 200w laser for metal
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:47 AM - JeffTheMess: ahhh ok
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:47 AM - Mike Glass: thats what the plasma cutter is for
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:47 AM - jbigler1986: 200w laser would be scary

 

Oct 2, 2015 at 5:48 AM - Mike Glass: ha im frightend of the 50w
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:49 AM - JeffTheMess: with enough passes you can cut deep i guess
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:52 AM - Mike Glass: it blew holes in 5mm wood while pulsing when I was getting a focus reading. didnt think it would do it that fast on the low power
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:54 AM - JeffTheMess: nice
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:55 AM - JeffTheMess: thats how it would work? pulsing or always on?
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:55 AM - Mike Glass: pulsing is just for checking the focus
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:56 AM - Mike Glass: or the power
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:56 AM - Mike Glass: it pulses when doing picutures I believe
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:56 AM - JeffTheMess: cool
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:57 AM - Mike Glass: thats what I want to do today is do a picture, need help from NFO though to get it set up right
Oct 2, 2015 at 5:59 AM - jbigler1986: thinking about building a retro arcade for my kids
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:00 AM - JeffTheMess: sound fun jb
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:00 AM - Mike Glass: like a standup. or a table type.
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:00 AM - jbigler1986: standup
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:01 AM - jbigler1986: my youngest found one of those plug in to tv joystick games. that has like pacman and a few other ones from goodwill. He is is love with it
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:02 AM - JeffTheMess: cool sounds like a fun project maybe get your kids to help out?
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:02 AM - Mike Glass: let me know, I may have a few games for it.
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:02 AM - jbigler1986: going to use a pi for the games
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:03 AM - Mike Glass: mame?
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:04 AM - JeffTheMess: Pis are perfect for that
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:04 AM - jbigler1986: retropi
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:06 AM - Mike Glass: I have a hacked psp the kids play the retro games on, have like 1900 some games
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:07 AM - jbigler1986: i have had a few of those. hand helds are just to small
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:07 AM - Mike Glass: althought the favorite is mario brothers
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:07 AM - Mike Glass: not if you have the tv convertor
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:08 AM - JeffTheMess: you can download a bunch of games and buy knock off controllers like snes and use a laptop with a tv
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:09 AM - Mike Glass: I have a game table I need to finish, just need to order the controllers and buttons for it.
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:10 AM - Mike Glass: even has a built in subwoofer..lol
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:10 AM - jbigler1986: would be nice to find a beat up cabinet and just re finish it to save a lot of time
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:25 AM - Bill Monroe: good morning
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:28 AM - JeffTheMess: morning Bill
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:28 AM - jbigler1986: i have gotten 0 work done today so far. might as well go home
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:28 AM - Bill Monroe: youre at work?
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:30 AM - jbigler1986: yep
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:31 AM - Mike Glass: Friday's are no days to be working
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:31 AM - jbigler1986: agreed
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:32 AM - Mike Glass: Bill I saw your old cnc is revivied, looked pretty sweet
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:32 AM - Bill Monroe: thanks, but that's not the old one
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:32 AM - Bill Monroe: this one was made from parts of other machines
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:33 AM - Bill Monroe: so I'm calling it "RoutenStein"
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:34 AM - Mike Glass: oh, gotcha, ready to cut your panel now?
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:35 AM - Bill Monroe: almost, but I might be selling the plane as it so, the panel is on hold
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:35 AM - Bill Monroe: as is
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:35 AM - Mike Glass: your red plane?
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:35 AM - Bill Monroe: ya
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:36 AM - Mike Glass: oh no, why do you want to sell it.
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:36 AM - JeffTheMess:
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:36 AM - Bill Monroe: well, got laid off two weeks ago, been doing some planning
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:37 AM - Mike Glass: oh sorry to hear that.
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:37 AM - Mike Glass: still get a pention?
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:37 AM - Bill Monroe: might just let it go as it, then sell the avionics seperately think i'll get more that way
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:38 AM - JeffTheMess: damn
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:38 AM - Bill Monroe: ok.. the parachute.. wish this is where whoever was bashing california was here right now... here's what I got:
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:39 AM - Bill Monroe: naturally, the paid me for accrued vacation, 6 weeks
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:39 AM - Bill Monroe: 24 weeks of Salary continuance
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:40 AM - Bill Monroe: subsidized COBRA
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:40 AM - Bill Monroe: professional job search and placement sevices
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:40 AM - JeffTheMess: (wish I would start investing from now to avoid stuff like that)
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:40 AM - Bill Monroe: and... WARN
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:41 AM - jbigler1986: sucks Bill. You love that plane
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:41 AM - jbigler1986: You have another one though right?
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:41 AM - Mike Glass: do you have sick leave they pay out like at least a 1/4 of
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:41 AM - Bill Monroe: warn is a california requirement that when your job has been eliminated, they have to give you 60 days notice, or 60 days pay, which is what I got in a lump sum
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:42 AM - Bill Monroe: no. we have PTO vacay, sick, all combined, and they pay 100%
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:42 AM - Bill Monroe: so what I got was basically 8 1/2 months pay
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:42 AM - Bill Monroe: paid medical and dental for that time
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:43 AM - Bill Monroe: ya, jb, I love the plane
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:43 AM - Bill Monroe: but then again, I love them all
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:44 AM - Bill Monroe: I'm keeping the FlyBaby
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:44 AM - Bill Monroe: cuz it has folding wings and I keep it in the garage
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:45 AM - jbigler1986: get all doctor trips out of the way while you can
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:45 AM - Bill Monroe: the headhunter and seach coach are already engaged...
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:46 AM - jbigler1986: found out last night that my ex is having surgery today and will be in recovery today and tomorrow. But do I get to get my kids? Nope
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:46 AM - Bill Monroe: surgery for what?
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:46 AM - jbigler1986: no clue
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:47 AM - Bill Monroe: IQ implants
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:47 AM - Mike Glass: transgender?
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:47 AM - jbigler1986: i just told her yesterdat that I was going to call the kids tomorrow to talk to them and that's when she told me she was having surgery today.
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:47 AM - Bill Monroe: lying
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:48 AM - Mike Glass: I doubt she would lie
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:48 AM - jbigler1986: haha. you guys are funny. who the hell knows and I don't care one bit. She is probably having an in grown hair removed is all. Lol
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:49 AM - jbigler1986: you doubt she would lie? OMG. She literally didn't tell the truth one time last time we were in court
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:49 AM - jbigler1986: Which is why I can not wait to go back to court because I have proof of everything she lied about
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:50 AM - Mike Glass: I think I was facetious on that..lol
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:52 AM - Bill Monroe: <-- going to Ron White show tonight
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:52 AM - Mike Glass: cool, he is funny
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:52 AM - jbigler1986: She said I never paid bills. Bank statement and bill statements proves that wrong. She said this is only the 2nd time she filed for divorce. I have proof of the 3rd time she filed. She said we didn't move on June 19th. I have comcast bill showing they setup service that day and I signed for it. That is just 3 of like 8 lies that I have proof of
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:53 AM - Bill Monroe: ya.. here none of that would matter
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:53 AM - Bill Monroe: courts here consider that petty bickering.. you'd lose everything if you tried it
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:54 AM - jbigler1986: Only thing she used was the bullshit domestic that happened last year
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:55 AM - jbigler1986: Only reason I took a plea deal for it was because we were working things out and I wanted the protective order removed. The judge literally tried to talk me out of it like 4 times
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:56 AM - jbigler1986: No anger management, counseling or anything was required. Which goes to show what type of person the judge thought I was
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:58 AM - jbigler1986: I will even tell you the story of what happened last year because I'm not ashamed
Oct 2, 2015 at 6:58 AM - jbigler1986: if you guys care to hear it
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:02 AM - Mike Glass: women get away with so much when it comes to that
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:07 AM - NFOsec: hello.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:09 AM - JeffTheMess: hi there
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:09 AM - Mike Glass: well he awakens
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:10 AM - NFOsec: jbig: classic narcissist behavier. they want to attempt to make the situation about them -- usually they're dying or something far more melodramtic than what you have to offer.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:11 AM - NFOsec: in all reality, you should just simply document the facts and let the lawyers break her credibility, they're better at that. for example, just because you signed up for comcast doesn't mean you moved, that's where a judge or mediator would consider bicker-smack.

 

Oct 2, 2015 at 7:12 AM - NFOsec: anyway, what's up MG?
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:14 AM - Mike Glass: just getting ready to cut some targets for laser calibration
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:15 AM - jbigler1986: also the whole month from June 19th to July 20th (which is how long I lived at our new house) the electric bill was $9 at the old address where as the 24 months before that the electric bill averaged $130 a month
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:16 AM - jbigler1986: oh yeah my attorney can't wait to go to court and nail her on everything.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:16 AM - Mike Glass: hey shouldnt the pointer laser be centered at where the laser actually cuts?
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:18 AM - jbigler1986: anyways. That's my rant on my ex
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:18 AM - NFOsec: yeah, it's easy to adjust that, but remember, once you got it centered, when you raise/lower the laser head itself (the part I told you telescopes) it will be the same location.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:18 AM - NFOsec: it is probably centered based on a specific distance right now.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:19 AM - NFOsec: they're called ex's for a reason jbig.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:21 AM - NFOsec: from the looks of it, you got some stuff going.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:21 AM - jbigler1986: I do. Just a slow process. My attorney requested the final hearing Wednesday so just waiting on that
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:22 AM - NFOsec: btw, one thing I like to do immediately after a part is done is either wait a few seconds to let exhaust complete or slightly lift the hood to draw in fresh air before going all open. a little smell is part of life.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:22 AM - NFOsec: yeah, best of luck, including the midget(s?)
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:22 AM - jbigler1986: it is plural
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:24 AM - jbigler1986: I need to fix my bowden tube. It's to long and has to many curves. It's like a crazy straw
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:25 AM - jbigler1986: push fit connectors are better than the v6 style bowden adapter as well
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:28 AM - Mike Glass: trying to cut some card stock but its not cutting all the way through, think I still need to focus
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:29 AM - jbigler1986: you should make a wood deck of cards
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:30 AM - Mike Glass: the corners burn through but not anywhere else.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:31 AM - Mike Glass: the etching in the paper is pretty cool though
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:31 AM - Mike Glass: yea cards would be neat
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:31 AM - NFOsec: yeah, focus is EVERYTHING.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:31 AM - NFOsec: remember what I said? if you don't have it set for proper height focus it won't really do cuts.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:32 AM - NFOsec: also, it will ONLY do cuts if the lines are set to "hairline".
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:32 AM - NFOsec: the rest is just burning baby burning until it goes through.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:32 AM - NFOsec: oh, I usually use chipboard (a form of a cardboard stock without the internal support ridges) to run lots of test rastering, etc.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:32 AM - Mike Glass: in RD it just shows Cut
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:33 AM - NFOsec: did you create the item IN RD or was it a print to laser then RD shows up?
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:33 AM - Mike Glass: it was imported into RD
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:33 AM - NFOsec: if you created it in RD using any of their vector tools they would be vector cut hairlines.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:33 AM - Mike Glass: its was a laser file
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:34 AM - NFOsec: importing in still needs to make sure the lines are hairline, but your problem is really more towards focus.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:34 AM - Mike Glass: had all the speed settings and power settings
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:34 AM - NFOsec: how are you adjusting the height of the laser to the item?
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:34 AM - NFOsec: that little acrylic thing with a ribbon on it isn't in my experience the right height or the best focus height.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:34 AM - Mike Glass: I did that test you said and messured what was the smallest dot
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:35 AM - Mike Glass: seems the farther away works way better.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:36 AM - Mike Glass: but want to make sure alignment is true first
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:36 AM - Mike Glass: I printed this http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:760795
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:36 AM - NFOsec: that means that the table isn't leveled.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:37 AM - NFOsec: you should be able to move the laser head to each point on your table and it will be the same height. I'm willing to bet it ins't.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:37 AM - NFOsec: sometimes it requires adjusting individual legs until you get the level perfect then thereafter it's very low maintenance.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:38 AM - NFOsec: so, once you did the smallest dot "focus" situation, you need to measure that point to the table from the tip and create a piece that will be used to verify that distance for all parts when you move table up/down.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:38 AM - NFOsec: make sense?
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:39 AM - Mike Glass: yep thats what I did
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:39 AM - Mike Glass: table is little off from back to front maybe 2mm but side to side its dead on
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:40 AM - NFOsec: that has to be adjusted, otherwise your cuts will not always work, raster engraving typically does all the time because it doesn't need the same level of focus as a hairline cut.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:42 AM - NFOsec: there is a wheel in the front center (floor of the lower section) where the belt passes. Allen wrench on the top screw, open end on the bottom nut, loosen it up so no belt tension on any of the legs, then slowly adjust each leg until leveled.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:42 AM - NFOsec: Then, pull back wheel and retighten.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:42 AM - NFOsec: this is the reason why I think it would be cool to replace these legs with an auto-leveler with probe.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:43 AM - NFOsec: can do it a lot cheaper I'm sure than spending the extra $5500 for the next level system that would have that.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:43 AM - NFOsec: Epilog's cheapest version is a $9k model 40w.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:44 AM - NFOsec: for this minor inconvenience that probably took me about 20-30 minutes to get set right, I saved more than 15% by switching to Chinese.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:46 AM - Mike Glass: lol
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:46 AM - Mike Glass: so how do I tell if the lines are hairlines
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:51 AM - Mike Glass: what is the different processing modes like scan and pen do?
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:52 AM - NFOsec: well, are you able to open the item in a program such as crap, what's that one starting with an i again?
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:52 AM - NFOsec: remember, hairlines are only necessary for the vector cutting.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:53 AM - NFOsec: everything else just gets treated as raster, so a thick line wouldn't matter if you set the laser to "cut" because it would just focus on doing a massive burn.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:54 AM - NFOsec: so, I decided to step away from my DraganFlyer and go with a new DJI Phantom 3 Professional drone.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:54 AM - NFOsec: charged up everything, installed app on tablet and phone, will have to get a test mode launch soon.,
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:54 AM - Mike Glass: couple of my friends have those, really nice.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:54 AM - Mike Glass: the 4k videos are awesome
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:54 AM - NFOsec: yeah, the Professional is really good, great remote controllable gimbal and camera.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:55 AM - NFOsec: yup.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:55 AM - danzca6: Is that the one where there are 2 pilots? One for the camera and one for the drone?
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:55 AM - NFOsec: my DraganFlyer used the GoPro.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:55 AM - danzca6: 2 remotes I should say
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:55 AM - NFOsec: you can use two remotes, but otherwise you would use what appears to be a decent 7-channel type remote and control all of that yourself.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:55 AM - danzca6: you'll be the ultimate peeping tom
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:56 AM - NFOsec: no, remember, I do professional photography on the side, so this is going to be cool, I could do a wedding scene outdoor with a Litchin orchestrated flyby pattern and return it to home.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:56 AM - danzca6: yeah, I remember
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:57 AM - danzca6: they are pretty cool
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:57 AM - NFOsec: Litchin is a program where you can program your flight plans, or use the DJI Pro App to orbit a central point and fly at a specified speed/height, etc. with the camera laser-focused on your subject point of origin.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:57 AM - NFOsec: no shit.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:57 AM - NFOsec: very well built.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:57 AM - danzca6: your ROI will be pretty quick I bet. People love that stuff
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:58 AM - danzca6: especially brides
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:58 AM - NFOsec: the one thing that I hear the most is people running out of battery when they are in mid-flight, some 100-200 odd feet up and ignoring all tell-tale signs to get their ass down.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:58 AM - NFOsec: yeah, and with 4K video, will be a cinch to go low res.
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:58 AM - danzca6: do they do night vision at all?
Oct 2, 2015 at 7:59 AM - danzca6: not that you would use that for a wedding
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:00 AM - NFOsec: yeah, it said something about infrared.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:00 AM - danzca6: wonder if some realtors in the area would like to have video from above on some higher end properties
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:00 AM - danzca6: that would be neat to add to a listing
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:01 AM - danzca6: toys that make you money are the best kind
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:01 AM - Mike Glass: NFO is there a setting that I need to be aware so it doesnt burn the corners as much.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:01 AM - danzca6: Mike, liked the Shelby logo last night...just saw it this morning
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:02 AM - Mike Glass: yea my full size on I did on the cnc is really cool.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:02 AM - Mike Glass: painted and 3d printed eye for it..lol
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:03 AM - danzca6: I'm a big mustang fan so that's pretty neat. Might make a nice clock
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:03 AM - NFOsec: yeah, I liked that as well.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:03 AM - NFOsec: did you do some sort of stop and restart with filaments to go 2tone?
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:04 AM - Mike Glass: Here is some more.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:04 AM - Mike Glass: no they are all snap in pieces
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:04 AM - NFOsec: Oh.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:04 AM - NFOsec: great job.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:04 AM - Mike Glass: yea it was a pain
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:05 AM - NFOsec: you're going to be very productive with the laser work once you get focused (pun intended)
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:05 AM - danzca6: whoa...very nice

 

Oct 2, 2015 at 8:05 AM - Mike Glass: im working on a Mustang 2 one for friend. but now with the laser might have to do it in acrylic
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:06 AM - NFOsec: Five basic skills to learn. 1) how to level/focus, 2) how to vector cut/hairline, 3) how to raster engrave 4) how to set the power/speed for each type of material, then build up your own list, and 5) how to identify materials safe to cut, raster, and lick.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:06 AM - NFOsec: sweet.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:06 AM - danzca6: that would be sharp
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:06 AM - NFOsec: logos in acrylic/laser would be nice.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:06 AM - Mike Glass: im up to 35 power and still wont cut through the card stock except the corners?
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:07 AM - Mike Glass: maybe cause it s going at 200mm/s..lol
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:07 AM - NFOsec: the cool thing about this DJI Pro3 is that for "beginner mode" you can fire it up and it will raise to 3.9 feet and hover.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:08 AM - NFOsec: then, in order to go higher or do other things you have to change the mode deliberately.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:08 AM - NFOsec: nice failsafe.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:08 AM - NFOsec: actually, look at the spreadsheets I gave you dude.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:08 AM - Mike Glass: another note, does the glass window actually provide laser protection or just a shield?
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:09 AM - NFOsec: I am thinking it is a tempered guard and not a laser shield.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:09 AM - Mike Glass: ok well I use my glass regaurdless
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:09 AM - Mike Glass: glasses i meant
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:09 AM - NFOsec: if it was a sheild it would have at least been amber or been distorted from a wide-angle.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:09 AM - NFOsec: yeah. Good little engineer.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:10 AM - Mike Glass: to bad they are not prescription ones..lol
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:10 AM - NFOsec: In the spreadsheet I gave you, one setting for paper was speed 11%, power 10%
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:12 AM - Mike Glass: did you see my cooling system was labled wrong kept on getting a water error.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:12 AM - NFOsec: if it were me, I'd probably go speed 20, power 20 with laser 50% thru, eventually, speed can be increased.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:12 AM - NFOsec: no, I didn't go back that far.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:13 AM - NFOsec: so you had the hoses switched eh?
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:13 AM - NFOsec: the nice thing is it won't let you operate until the water problem is resolved.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:13 AM - NFOsec: sweet.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:13 AM - NFOsec: the cheaper Korean made lasers don't care about that.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:13 AM - Mike Glass: yea, i would of though inlet was in but you know those chinese
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:13 AM - NFOsec: (yes, there are cheaper things than Chinese)
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:14 AM - Mike Glass: ok will try the 11%, seems slow
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:15 AM - Mike Glass: this sending over the network is a lifesaver.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:15 AM - NFOsec: remember, you can extrapolate power/speed once you get the proper ratio.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:15 AM - NFOsec: oh yeah, would NEVER USB or thumbiedrivie the thing.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:16 AM - NFOsec: I started with a llaptop USB, was cumbersome for me.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:16 AM - NFOsec: I'm in a different room. you can send a job and then go to it to "print" or just go straight to print.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:17 AM - Mike Glass: yea, really like that, wish the robo was like that.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:17 AM - Mike Glass: ok that basically did the same thing except charred the paper line..lol
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:17 AM - Mike Glass: but the corners are not wonky
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:18 AM - NFOsec: technically, mine is close to that, have a 25 and 50ft USB. LOL, but it's literally behind me.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:18 AM - NFOsec: do you have that acrylic tab of plastic with a ribbon on it that they gave you?
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:18 AM - Mattchu: morning everyone
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:18 AM - Mike Glass: I got my honeycomb table yesterday, havent taken it out of the box yet.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:18 AM - NFOsec: what chu up to Matt?
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:18 AM - Mike Glass: howdy matt
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:20 AM - Mattchu: waking up, marking up some cardboard. mentally preparing for work hahaha
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:22 AM - jbigler1986: i fucking hate buybuybaby
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:23 AM - Mattchu: you're not the first person to tell me they do not enjoy the bed bath and beyond for kids, Jbigler. makes me glad I don't have any
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:33 AM - NFOsec: whatchu talking about Matt, your day will come.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:33 AM - NFOsec: they will procreate on their own.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:37 AM - Mattchu: I gotta deal with me already, NFO
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:40 AM - Mike Kelly: morning
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:41 AM - Mattchu: hey, just sent you an email MK. The waterjet at work went down for maintanence
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:46 AM - Mike Glass: Ok NFO, looks like my best focal is at 1" does that sound right? I ran the settings for card stock and it cut it out perfect.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:47 AM - Mike Kelly: i saw matt
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:47 AM - Mike Glass: BTW the honeycomb I though wouldnt fit works perfect.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:47 AM - Mike Kelly: i can save the files as dxf but is there not some software out there that can convertb between?
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:49 AM - Mattchu: There are ways, but it's fiddly.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:49 AM - Mike Kelly: matt your printer doesn't have a ribbon cable for Y does it
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:50 AM - Mattchu: it does.
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:50 AM - Mattchu: little thing, sticks out the back?
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:51 AM - Mattchu: roughly 3/4" of an inch wide?
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:51 AM - Mike Kelly: yes ok
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:51 AM - Mike Kelly: looks like a ribbon
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:51 AM - Mike Kelly: and you decided on .25"?
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:52 AM - Mattchu: we'll go for .125...I'm going to stop at ridout on the way to work. mmmm discount plastic
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:52 AM - Mattchu: actually, tell you what. lemme see what I find first
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:53 AM - Mattchu: I know I won't be using the makrolon at work now though (which makes me sad )
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:53 AM - Mike Kelly: bummer for sure
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:53 AM - Mike Kelly: well it matter for which files i generate for, so let me know and i can prep the files
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:54 AM - Mattchu: yessir!
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:55 AM - Mattchu: I'm actually on my way out the door now...work is having me burn the candle at both ends...which is sucky but good
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:55 AM - Mike Kelly: i have the opposite problem
Oct 2, 2015 at 8:57 AM - Mike Glass: lol, that would suck, you must get bored at work.
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:10 AM - Mike Kelly: you have no idea
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:11 AM - NFOsec: MG: yeah, remember focus is focus is focus, so you might be 7/8" and I might be 1", but it's within a pretty tight margin.
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:12 AM - NFOsec: what do you need to convert dxfr to?
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:13 AM - Mike Kelly: need to go from dwg to dxf
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:14 AM - NFOsec: 3d object converter? 3doc.i3dconverter.com might help. I use it as one of the utilities in my growing toolbelt.
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:14 AM - NFOsec: MG: glad to hear the cut passed.
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:15 AM - Mike Kelly: i'll just save them as dxf in solidworks, nbd
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:31 AM - Mike Glass: what does does not have enough extend space mean.
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:35 AM - Mike Glass: too far to the right to start i guess. running now.
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:35 AM - NFOsec: That means that you're too close to the outside margin where the laser head travels too far left or back and doesn't have space.
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:35 AM - NFOsec: yes.
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:36 AM - NFOsec: do you want to work from the upper (back) left side instead of the right?
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:36 AM - NFOsec: I can give you the quick setting for that in RDWorks.
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:36 AM - Mike Glass: yea I figured that out
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:37 AM - NFOsec: Set Y Axis Mirror checked, and of the 9 radio buttons, pick the upper left one.
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:37 AM - NFOsec: also, unit of measurement should be mm, some people think going to inches makes a difference, doesn't.
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:38 AM - NFOsec: this "follow me" drone setting is really freaky.
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:38 AM - NFOsec: already figured out I need a clip stablizer so the microUSB doesn't break away or get bent, glad to know I can print that part out.
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:39 AM - Mike Glass: just dont break the camer mount its expensive to fix, friend crashed his into a tree and made that expensive mistake.
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:41 AM - jbigler1986: that sucks
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:42 AM - Mike Glass: was almost as cheap to buy the whole module with the camera then the actual mount.
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:44 AM - Mike Glass: what does one of the charte refer to frequency for?
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:45 AM - NFOsec: some lasers have frequency that they set (number of pulses per..) you don't need to worry about those.
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:46 AM - NFOsec: camera mount?
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:46 AM - NFOsec: you mean on the Phantom3Pro?
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:46 AM - Mike Glass: yep
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:46 AM - NFOsec: yeah, gimbals of this type of "precision" and durability are not really deigned for ruggedness.
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:46 AM - Mike Glass: doing a picture on some wood now.

 

Oct 2, 2015 at 9:46 AM - NFOsec: my DragoanFlyer IV was.
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:47 AM - NFOsec: ok, picture or photo?
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:47 AM - Mike Glass: photo
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:47 AM - NFOsec: if photo, there are a few "processing" guides to do.
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:47 AM - Mike Glass: I used the bitmap handle
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:48 AM - Mike Kelly: oh yay i forgot about the whole needing to install all the flippin drivers for dell pc's
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:48 AM - Mike Glass: Gotta love dell drivers
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:49 AM - Mike Kelly: i'm surprised my boss hasn't called, he calls like every 2 hours for an update
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:49 AM - Mike Kelly: THIS SHIT TAKES TIME LEAVE ME ALONE
Oct 2, 2015 at 9:59 AM - Mike Glass: Are you the computer tech too?
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:05 AM - Mike Kelly: unfortunately
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:05 AM - Mike Kelly: i try and avoid it whenever i can
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:05 AM - Mike Kelly: but it got out that i know computers so now i deal with that sometimes
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:18 AM - Mike Kelly: oh cool i think open top high cube shipping containers exist
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:18 AM - Mike Kelly: the random shit i need to know
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:21 AM - Mike Kelly: http://de.aliexpress.com/item/6-Mat..._75,0_0&adminSeq=224263635&shopNumber=1936246 this is tempting
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:27 AM - Mike Glass: Wonder what shipping is.
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:27 AM - NFOsec: MK: yeah, it's unfortunate that we have that knowledge.
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:28 AM - Mike Glass: Picture turned out nice till I put poly on it,lol
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:31 AM - NFOsec: well, sometimes that "bitmap" thing works, othertimes you need some minor edits. Intalgio is a common choice for me to select for rastering vs the X-swing.
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:33 AM - Mike Glass: cheap plywood also, on the back side not the nice side of the birch.
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:33 AM - NFOsec: nice man.
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:33 AM - NFOsec: I bet you're getting more excited by the day?
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:33 AM - Mike Glass: by the hour, really
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:33 AM - NFOsec: I was waiting for that.
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:33 AM - Mike Glass: hopefully this will cut my signs I do on the cnc in 1/4 time.
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:34 AM - NFOsec: I know the feeling, the euphoria wears off when it requires you to work to make money to enjoy what you love.
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:34 AM - NFOsec: lol.
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:34 AM - NFOsec: it might, in fact, sometimes I use it to cut some signage and laser engrave borders.
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:34 AM - NFOsec: but practice is always best policy.
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:35 AM - Mike Glass: yea i just use a light v groove for most then cut out, so sure it will work great for me.
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:35 AM - Mike Glass: That table I got fits perfect
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:35 AM - Mike Glass: I thought I was gonna have to cut it up.
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:36 AM - NFOsec: that is definitely great to hear.
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:37 AM - Mike Glass: I did a test on the 3rd mirror just for giggles looks like its off about 2mm, any concern?
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:37 AM - NFOsec: My only concern was that you didn't regret your choice and blame it on me because I have a stock Robo R1 +plus.
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:38 AM - NFOsec: well, if one is off, the others are probably also slightly off (i.e. the one just before the last).
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:38 AM - Mike Kelly: plus plus
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:38 AM - NFOsec: key is as long as it focuses no problem, tolerance is probably +-2mm acceptable.
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:39 AM - NFOsec: MK: plus plus?
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:39 AM - Mike Glass: its kinda flimsy i noticed where the laser sits
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:39 AM - Mike Kelly: R1 plus plus
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:39 AM - Mike Kelly: everytime i see that
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:40 AM - Mike Glass: bbiab, take daughter to preschool
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:41 AM - NFOsec: R1 +pus
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:41 AM - NFOsec: better?
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:41 AM - Mike Kelly: i just call it the R1+
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:42 AM - Mike Kelly: i should get my bits tomorrow but i don't think my collets even been picked up by the post office
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:42 AM - NFOsec: I call it a second wife, great when it is needed and does the job, horrible when it is a nag, and pretty to look at from time to time (but haven't been married more thna once and don't plan on that. 29 years running)
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:43 AM - Mike Kelly: 29 years married? impressive
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:43 AM - NFOsec: so, today for lunch an infusion of Japanese, Korean, and Chinese. Japanese udon noodles with a good homemade korean himchi and some great chinese sausage.
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:43 AM - NFOsec: yeah, sufferage is underrated these days.
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:44 AM - NFOsec: her folks are celebrating their 64th in a few weeks.
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:44 AM - Mike Kelly: i just hit 5, but if you beta test and research what you want you only need a good 1.0
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:44 AM - NFOsec: mine are long gone, burreied my mother 12/23 last year.
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:44 AM - Mike Kelly: sorry to hear that
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:44 AM - NFOsec: happens, actually she passed 2 days before thanksgiving.
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:44 AM - Mike Kelly: my grandparents have been gone for 5 years and 10 years respectively
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:45 AM - NFOsec: but, imagine, middle of winter, no snow, 73 degrees that day (12/23)
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:45 AM - Mike Kelly: my grandfather passed the day after thanksgiving
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:45 AM - Mike Kelly: so black friday takes on a new meaning
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:45 AM - Mike Kelly: my parents are celebrating their 40th next year
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:45 AM - NFOsec: the wierd irony of it all is I have a brother who lost his 3 year old on the same day as my mother a year prior.
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:45 AM - NFOsec: that's cool.
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:46 AM - NFOsec: rule #1, it's only a piece of paper and only counts when you're in a situation like jbig. #2, she's always right unless you have an army of witnesses and specialists who can prove her wrong without your intervention.
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:47 AM - Mike Kelly: heh, my wife is always right regardless, really annoying
Oct 2, 2015 at 10:54 AM - Mike Kelly: interesting, ultibots is selling E3D products now
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:05 AM - jbigler1986: well i kinda got sucked in to my 1.0
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:05 AM - Mike Kelly: succubus eh
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:06 AM - jbigler1986: lived an hour away from her OBGYN . She said she had an appointment to go get the birth control shot. She said she went and got it. Boom soon after she got pregnant and found out she didn't get the shot
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:06 AM - NFOsec: I guess her OBGYN impregnated her. better make sure the kid is yours.
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:07 AM - jbigler1986: I grew up without my dad so I put up with a lot of shit to try and make sure I would be around for my kids.
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:07 AM - NFOsec: you know the shots -- he says: this is going to be a little prick.
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:07 AM - NFOsec: that's the right attitude.
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:08 AM - Mike Glass: lol NFO
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:08 AM - jbigler1986: literally. she has cheated with like 7 different guys over the 9 years we were together. Overlooked it for my kids. I just couldn't leave because of them
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:09 AM - Mike Glass: Thats tuff JB, I was the same way with no dad around, so I know its very important
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:09 AM - jbigler1986: Now look how I am being treated when all I care about is my damn kids. Nothing else matters
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:10 AM - Mike Kelly: yup she sounds like the devil
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:10 AM - Mike Kelly: my coworker slept with a girl once, got her pregnant, then had to have a literal shotgun wedding
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:10 AM - Mike Kelly: west virginia though
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:11 AM - jbigler1986: every since they were born until July 19th 2015. I got up with them every single night to feed and change diapers. Nightmares I got up and put them back to bed. They get sick at night I would clean them and change bedding
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:11 AM - jbigler1986: She literally has gotten up in the middle of the night for the kids maybe 40 times in 7 years
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:12 AM - Mike Kelly: http://i.imgur.com/oRcIXiM.gifv for some feel goods
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:12 AM - Mike Glass: I love goldens
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:12 AM - Mike Kelly: ditto
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:13 AM - Mike Kelly: they're adorable
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:13 AM - Mike Kelly: shame they have such bad problems with hip displacia
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:13 AM - Mike Kelly: though i'm worried my girl is getting some hip problems, and she's only 5!
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:13 AM - jbigler1986: It's just disgusting really. This is how fucked up it is. I wasn't allowed to fall asleep before here because sometimes I snore. If i fell asleep before her she would wake me up until she fell asleep. I put my hand on the bible on that and everything else I have said
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:13 AM - Mike Glass: I had one as a kid, taught him how to skateboard, raised him from 1 week old, then got hit by a car.
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:13 AM - Mike Glass: but not skateboarding..lol
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:13 AM - Mike Kelly: oh no
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:14 AM - jbigler1986: I want a golden or german shepard
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:14 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah jb that's such a shitty situation
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:14 AM - Mike Kelly: my biggest fear is one of my pups getting hit by a car
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:14 AM - Mike Kelly: can happen in an instant
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:14 AM - Mike Kelly: at home i'm less worried cause we're pretty tucked in the neighborhood and not many cars go on my road
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:14 AM - Mike Glass: yea city life, dont have to worry about that where we live now.
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:15 AM - Mike Kelly: at work when my big one gets out we're like 1000 ft from a major road, i'm terrified she'll wander over there

 

Oct 2, 2015 at 11:15 AM - Mike Kelly: luckily she prefers the open area behind our building
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:16 AM - Mike Glass: you take her to work, thats cool
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:16 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah i love that
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:16 AM - Mike Kelly: as does she
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:16 AM - Mike Kelly: she used to be TERRIFIED of new people
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:16 AM - Mike Kelly: now she's a lot better
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:16 AM - Mike Kelly: still nervous around kids after getting kicked in the nose by my coworkers kid
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:17 AM - Mike Kelly: but she's a sweetheart
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:18 AM - Mike Glass: 500mm/s not sure this machine will do that or not..lol
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:18 AM - Mike Glass: NFO, any input on that?
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:24 AM - Mike Glass: guess it does..man impressive
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:26 AM - Mike Kelly: can you take some pictures of the motion system? very curious
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:26 AM - Mike Glass: video?
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:27 AM - jbigler1986: so my boss just got back from a meeting at amazon. he said like everyone there brings their dogs to work
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:27 AM - jbigler1986: They have dog walks and let dogs walk around the offices. crazy
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:35 AM - Mike Glass: who cleans the poop
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:36 AM - jbigler1986: probably a robot

Oct 2, 2015 at 11:44 AM - jbigler1986: 1500mm/s or not worth it
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:44 AM - jbigler1986: is the picture done now?
Oct 2, 2015 at 11:45 AM - Mike Glass: yea only took 10min or so the first one was 22min and was way smaller.

Oct 2, 2015 at 12:24 PM - Mike Kelly:

https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=1027813323919747

Oct 2, 2015 at 12:25 PM - Mike Glass: lol seen that one before
Oct 2, 2015 at 12:26 PM - NFOsec: Oh, I usually raster around 400-500mm, but 600-700 maybe is what I've pushed it to. I think it caps at 1000, but I don't recall.
