    Nov 30, 2016 5:35 AM - Bill Monroe: well in my case, I got drafted - told an army recruiter that if I didnt get to fly I would join the navy... showed him my civie pilots license and took some tests.. bingo, Warrant Officer Monroe

    Nov 30, 2016 5:38 AM - danzca6: I thought you were a plane guy. Nice.
    Nov 30, 2016 5:38 AM - danzca6: that has to be a bit different than a plane
    Nov 30, 2016 5:39 AM - Bill Monroe: the one I flew is now an outdoor display at Ft Jackson.. stripped of all the good stuff and covererd in pidgeon shit
    Nov 30, 2016 5:39 AM - JeffTheMess: what do you like flying more?

    Dec 1, 2016 at 4:37 AM - JeffTheMess: my rocker switch to power my robo is stuck on ON position lol can you believe it
    Dec 1, 2016 at 4:39 AM - Bill Monroe: Yes, actually I can.. happened to me
    Dec 1, 2016 at 4:40 AM - Bill Monroe: i got a new one from robo, loosened the screws to change it and it started working again.. been fine ever since
    Dec 1, 2016 at 4:42 AM - JeffTheMess: yeah planning to stop by radio shack to scoop it up
    Dec 1, 2016 at 4:50 AM - Bill Monroe: have you removed it yet?
    Dec 1, 2016 at 4:52 AM - JeffTheMess: nope im running a print right now
    Dec 1, 2016 at 4:53 AM - Bill Monroe: id try that, just to see if it gets freed up
    Dec 1, 2016 at 4:54 AM - JeffTheMess: yeah, i'd rather try and fix it first then get a new one...put this degree to work
    Dec 1, 2016 at 4:56 AM - Bill Monroe: heh I still have the switch robo sent along with a new power supply
    Dec 1, 2016 at 4:57 AM - JeffTheMess: yeah, keep you never know when china parts go bad
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:01 AM - Bill Monroe: ordered a power supply for my anodizing operation yesterday
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:03 AM - JeffTheMess: oh nice
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:03 AM - Bill Monroe: hey! my neighbor got his coyote back!
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:04 AM - Bill Monroe: brb
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:16 AM - Bill Monroe: back
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:17 AM - Bill Monroe: neighbor down the road had a coyote puppy wander on to his property about 6 years ago.. thought it was a dog.. took it in.
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:17 AM - Bill Monroe: Didnt find out it was a coyote until he took it to the vet maybe 6 mos later
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:18 AM - Bill Monroe: by then it was bonded and there was no way he was giving it up, so he's been careful with him..
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:18 AM - Bill Monroe: but some yay-hoo seasonal renter called animal control and they took him
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:18 AM - JeffTheMess: wow...plus once a human touches a wild animal they others won't let them into their area
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:18 AM - Bill Monroe: he's been fighting to get him back ever since..
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:19 AM - JeffTheMess: I would too
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:19 AM - JeffTheMess: is that a law in Cali about owning a cayote
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:19 AM - Bill Monroe: he's really something... rides in his jeep
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:20 AM - Bill Monroe: at least in this county it is.. no wild animals
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:20 AM - Bill Monroe: really I think the only ones to care are cat owners... one thing I like about coyotes.. they think cats are mighty tasty :)
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:21 AM - JeffTheMess: lol oh yeah, thats why they sell their urine to keep cats away
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:22 AM - Bill Monroe: they're not dogs, not even canines.. no relation whatsoever, but they have a lot of traits as dogs.. most people dont realize he's a coyote.. takes him off-leash walks, rides with him in his jeep...
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:22 AM - Bill Monroe: my dogs were sleeping next to the fire, then jumped up together and ran out the door...
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:23 AM - JeffTheMess: thats pretty cool....you have a poodle I have a fucking coyote *wins*
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:23 AM - Bill Monroe: I looked outside and here comes his coyote... with him follwing up the road.. he always runs ahead cuz he knows he'scoming here and my dogs love him
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:24 AM - JeffTheMess: yeah thats pretty cool you should take a picture
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:25 AM - Bill Monroe: plus, he really likes 2.0's chicken jerky treats :)
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:25 AM - Bill Monroe: i have a few somewhere....
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:26 AM - Bill Monroe: he likes to walk behind you and grab your pantleg
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:28 AM - Bill Monroe: my neighbor has been alone so long, we were glad to see him adopt a pet
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:29 AM - Bill Monroe: kinda look like he was slipping into a bad state
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:39 AM - JeffTheMess: sucks but now he should be good
    Dec 1, 2016 at 5:42 AM - Bill Monroe: yup
    Dec 1, 2016 at 7:07 AM - daniel871: https://scontent-iad3-1.cdninstagram.com/t50.2886-16/14253600_103729273418821_1164113618_n.mp4
    Dec 1, 2016 at 9:29 AM - David Sale: Sorry, did some one say the Coyote was not a canine?
    Dec 1, 2016 at 10:00 AM - JeffTheMess: yep
    Dec 1, 2016 at 10:02 AM - daniel871: Yeah, I laughed at that too, but didn't figure it was worth arguing about.
    Dec 1, 2016 at 10:03 AM - daniel871: Literally Genus Canis.
    Dec 1, 2016 at 10:51 AM - David Sale: Well I do not mean it in any way negative, but Coyotes have known to breed with a specific group of wolf creating a reproductively viable new group called the Coywolf..
    Dec 1, 2016 at 11:40 AM - daniel871: Well, that kickstarter delta I'm getting has been posting videos on Youtube for various stages of assembly over the last day. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfs61yeono184r1-yJJxMtw/videos?shelf_id=0&sort=dd&view=0
    Dec 1, 2016 at 11:43 AM - toymaker: im thinking about converting 1 of my rostocks to a laser cutter
    Dec 1, 2016 at 12:04 PM - JeffTheMess: ^Why
    Dec 1, 2016 at 12:17 PM - daniel871: Seems like a tremendous waste of a Rostock.
    Dec 1, 2016 at 12:18 PM - daniel871: Mostly because the delta platform won't play very nicely with any laser powerful enough to cut anything as opposed to simply burning lines in paper.
    Dec 1, 2016 at 12:21 PM - daniel871: I mean, yeah, it's been done, but the ones that have been made have been engravers, not cutters.
    Dec 1, 2016 at 12:21 PM - daniel871: (because the lasers powerful enough to actually cut something are too heavy for the delta platform to move accurately at the same speeds it can move a bowden hotend setup)
    Dec 1, 2016 at 12:22 PM - daniel871: A blu-ray reader laser/salvaged LightScribe(tm) laser are nowhere near powerful enough to cut something, they can just burn lines in things.
    Dec 1, 2016 at 12:24 PM - daniel871: Well, I say it's been done. That FLUX delta from back in 2014 that claimed to have a laser head hasn't been sold yet.
    Dec 1, 2016 at 12:24 PM - JeffTheMess: use it about 1000 times it will cut
    Dec 1, 2016 at 12:41 PM - toymaker: i want to teach kids about lasers, education purpuses etc
    Dec 1, 2016 at 12:45 PM - daniel871: "Whatever you do kids, don't look at the machine while the laser is running or you'll go blind"
    Dec 1, 2016 at 12:45 PM - daniel871: "Awwww...."

    Dec 2, 2016 at 2:18 AM - Bill Monroe: morning
    Dec 2, 2016 at 4:45 AM - JeffTheMess: morning roboneers
    Dec 2, 2016 at 4:48 AM - JeffTheMess: love seeing customers bring me 3d printed part on there products
    Dec 2, 2016 at 4:59 AM - Bill Monroe: Hey Jeff
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:21 AM - danzca6: Anyone back the R2/C2? I see they sent a survey to the C2 backers on the 28th and wondered what it said since that should have been when they were shipping the C2 printers
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:26 AM - danzca6: ah, looks like they are a week behind and the survey was asking shipping address info
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:33 AM - Bill Monroe: there was a lot of hype, but i've not seen or nor do I know anyone that has
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:34 AM - Bill Monroe: im not really looking though
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:35 AM - danzca6: morning bill
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:36 AM - Bill Monroe: hey Dan
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:37 AM - daniel871: I think most of us that actually talk in this Shoutbox were laughing at how badly managed that kickstarter was at the time it was going on.
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:38 AM - danzca6: morning daniel
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:38 AM - daniel871: Morning. Waiting on the coffee to finish brewing.
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:39 AM - danzca6: right....I'm stuck in first gear this morning and missed getting my caffeine out the door today
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:39 AM - daniel871: So hey, the latest Windows 10 updates broke the version of Solidworks we've been using.
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:40 AM - daniel871: Solution? Set up Windows 7 in Hyper-V and run it from there.
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:40 AM - daniel871: Because Solidworks was pretty hilarious about telling my employer what I told them a year ago when other issues were going on.
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:41 AM - danzca6: yeah the auto updates are crap...when it comes to a business install they should be controlled and tested prior to pushing
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:41 AM - daniel871: Solidworks gives zero fucks about supporting anything that isn't the current version of the software, and fuck you if you don't have a maintenance agreement.
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:41 AM - daniel871: Which I get, personally, but nobody else in the company I work for understands how software licensing actually works.
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:42 AM - JeffTheMess: Ive heard that a millions times over
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:43 AM - daniel871: What kills me is the sticker shock attitude they have about the cost of the software.
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:44 AM - daniel871: One unit we design sells for over 100,000 with a material/labor cost of about 35,000 and they piss and moan about software that only costs maybe 2,000 a year to keep up to date.
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:45 AM - daniel871: Sold a dozen systems this year alone. We ought to be able to afford to keep the software up to date just on the residual maintenance/spare parts we sell off of one unit.
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:48 AM - JeffTheMess: that always make me laugh..."we simply can't afford to lose money in my pocket"
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:49 AM - daniel871: We lost a huge customer this year because one of the VPs forgot to make sure who was actually copied on an email before hitting Reply All and saying something smartass about one of the customer contacts.
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:50 AM - daniel871: I never got to see the actual email but Hoooooooooly shit it must have been pretty bad.
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:50 AM - daniel871: You know when someone that works in a maintenance department at a fucking paper mill takes offense to something said about them that you've fucked up.
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:50 AM - JeffTheMess: still works there?
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:51 AM - daniel871: Oh yeah. VP with most seniority and mostly responsible for a lot of the early growth the company had building contacts in the industry.
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:54 AM - daniel871: This guy and the owner were the ones that founded the company back in 1993 and built things up from a simple machine shop, so this guy isn't going anywhere until he retires or has a stroke.
    Dec 2, 2016 at 5:58 AM - danzca6: I try to never say anything that could be seen as offensive in an email. Might just send it to one or two people that it won't offend, but then they accidently/purposefully send it to others and then you are screwed.
    Dec 2, 2016 at 6:00 AM - JeffTheMess: well atleast he has that going for him
    Dec 2, 2016 at 6:05 AM - daniel871: I think it was literally something like "Why is that guy being such a bitch about this? Jesus Christ what a faggot" or something because I don't see much anything else getting that kind of reaction from a customer.
    Dec 2, 2016 at 6:06 AM - daniel871: One of the call reports from our Sales department had something like "Just had a terrible visit at the mill where I was told to make arrangements to get all of our products out of this mill due to an employee of ours saying something terrible about the customer"
    Dec 2, 2016 at 6:07 AM - daniel871: "I wasn't told what the actual remark was, but the contact said he'd never read anything so unprofessional in his 40 years in the industry and the corporate executives are going to ban us from all mills owned by this company"
    Dec 2, 2016 at 6:08 AM - daniel871: Which is only 6 paper mills out of the hundreds that are around the US, but still.
    Dec 2, 2016 at 6:10 AM - JeffTheMess: wow pretty bad
    Dec 2, 2016 at 6:11 AM - daniel871: Yeah, when the mill basically says "Get all of your shit out of here" it's pretty messed up.
    Dec 2, 2016 at 6:13 AM - daniel871: I wonder when the followup "And refund all of the money we spent on your shit" is going to come.
    Dec 2, 2016 at 6:14 AM - JeffTheMess: lol yeah that can't happen
    Dec 2, 2016 at 6:16 AM - daniel871: It can for the things that were in storage that hadn't been used yet.
    Dec 2, 2016 at 6:17 AM - daniel871: Like the handful of Capital Projects that hadn't been installed yet.
    Dec 2, 2016 at 6:19 AM - daniel871: That's if they don't calm down and decide to use what they've bought and just tell us to go to hell for future business.
    Dec 2, 2016 at 6:21 AM - daniel871: Anyway, warning about volume on this one, turn it down before it plays for very long: https://vtt.tumblr.com/tumblr_ohff47hvso1qzfeby.mp4#_=_

    Dec 5, 2016 at 6:08 AM - Bill Monroe: had an engineer here that was convinced a printed sponge holder for a double sink would set the world on fire
    Dec 5, 2016 at 6:10 AM - JeffTheMess: lol, yeah crap like that is dumb,
    Dec 5, 2016 at 6:10 AM - Bill Monroe: company thought he was a god
    Dec 5, 2016 at 6:10 AM - JeffTheMess: people don't understand that every idea isn't always a good one
    Dec 5, 2016 at 6:11 AM - Bill Monroe: he would throw some many calculations at the management that they assumed he knew what he was talking about, and ANYthing said negative would bring swift reprisal
    Dec 5, 2016 at 6:14 AM - JeffTheMess: but hey we have president Trump so might as well see what sticks with people
    Dec 5, 2016 at 7:59 AM - jbigler1986: Im here still. Kind of
    Dec 5, 2016 at 8:13 AM - WheresWaldo: @jbigler1986, this means what exactly?
    Dec 5, 2016 at 8:46 AM - JeffTheMess: JB is like Batman lurking the dark parts of the robo forum correcting people 3d printing crimes

    Dec 6, 2016 at 5:33 AM - Bill Monroe: whats the application?
    Dec 6, 2016 at 5:35 AM - JeffTheMess: a small system to go along a 3d printed small wind turbine
    Dec 6, 2016 at 5:35 AM - Bill Monroe: nice
    Dec 6, 2016 at 5:37 AM - JeffTheMess: my neighbors might cut down some tree bringing me alot of light and wind so might take a crack at it
    Dec 6, 2016 at 5:38 AM - Bill Monroe: sounds like fun
    Dec 6, 2016 at 5:38 AM - Bill Monroe: 7-8 years ago the windfarm corp in the palm springs area was tearing out some small mills replacing them with the monster turbines...
    Dec 6, 2016 at 5:39 AM - Bill Monroe: I asked if I could buy one of the old ones.. they said I could just have one as they were going to scrap them
    Dec 6, 2016 at 5:39 AM - JeffTheMess: oh yeah, we will see how all this alternate energy comes about with the next 4 years

    Dec 6, 2016 at 6:45 AM - JeffTheMess: what is it
    Dec 6, 2016 at 6:45 AM - Bill Monroe: trigger guard for a vintage Mossberg 44US target rifle
    Dec 6, 2016 at 6:46 AM - Bill Monroe: made in the 40s.. original guards were plastic and most have since either broken, shrunk, or both, just from age
    Dec 6, 2016 at 6:47 AM - Bill Monroe: when the CMP was selling the rifles, someone was making aluminum replacements but the rifles are all gone now and the replacement guards have vanished
    Dec 6, 2016 at 7:30 AM - daniel871: Sounds like it'd be a neat side-project to make a lost-PLA cast/mold for making some poured aluminum replacements if you ever get really bored.
    Dec 6, 2016 at 7:53 AM - daniel871: Oh hey, this is a thing. https://santatracker.google.com/village.html

    Dec 12, 2016 at 5:54 AM - Bill Monroe: It's been 60 and clear here.. was crystal-clear in Arizona over the weekend
    Dec 12, 2016 at 5:54 AM - danzca6: back to work...toys are at home...
    Dec 12, 2016 at 5:54 AM - danzca6: Nice Bill...I love snow....but I do like warm days
    Dec 12, 2016 at 5:55 AM - danzca6: had the hot tub open last night
    Dec 12, 2016 at 5:55 AM - danzca6: feels good after being in the cold all day
    Dec 12, 2016 at 5:55 AM - Bill Monroe: 2.0 would do anything to have snow
    Dec 12, 2016 at 5:55 AM - danzca6: come up to IL, we have enough for everyone
    Dec 12, 2016 at 5:56 AM - Geof: Lol none here danz. All melting just cold as crap lol
    Dec 12, 2016 at 5:56 AM - danzca6: Bill, you should see the tiny things Geof is printing
    Dec 12, 2016 at 5:56 AM - Bill Monroe: I'm taking her to Brekenridge for xmas.. she doesnt know yet
    Dec 12, 2016 at 5:56 AM - danzca6: awesome
    Dec 12, 2016 at 5:56 AM - Bill Monroe: tiny things? why?
    Dec 12, 2016 at 5:57 AM - danzca6: because he can...hahaha...my son saw them so now I ordered the tiny nozzle from E3D to print some detailed lego pieces he has been wanting
    Dec 12, 2016 at 5:58 AM - Bill Monroe: i like to print big stuff
    Dec 12, 2016 at 5:58 AM - Bill Monroe: I'd love to get my hands on a concrete printer to make myshop with
    Dec 12, 2016 at 5:58 AM - danzca6: did you get your christmas shopping all done?
    Dec 12, 2016 at 5:59 AM - Bill Monroe: actually pretty much... got 2.0 and sister taken care off.. all my kids will be getting money cards
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:00 AM - danzca6: yeah they get to an age and that is almost easier
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:00 AM - danzca6: My wife hates buying for me because if I see something I want I normally just buy it
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:00 AM - Bill Monroe: ya, oldest and youngest both bought homes so Home Depot cards are the thing
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:01 AM - Bill Monroe: i told 2.0 I wanted a sine vise... it'llbefun to see if she figured it out
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:01 AM - Geof: Tiny things because the robo is now retired from production and just a toy lol. The other printer took its place
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:01 AM - Geof: :)
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:02 AM - danzca6: you retired the robo?
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:02 AM - Geof: High resolution prints on the robo .07-.015 layers going forward
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:02 AM - Geof: Yessir. Its now a toy lol. The prusa took the robos place and the UM took the prusas lol
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:04 AM - danzca6: it's crazy to get that kind of layer height out of it
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:04 AM - Bill Monroe: my robo is basically my son's now as he uses it more than I.. my homebrew has been bullet-proof and does ABS like a pro machine
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:04 AM - Geof: it may go back into production if I find an actual end use for something that high resolution off a printer.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:05 AM - Geof: Bill you have any pics of the homebrew set up? I'd be intrigued to see. The only no hassle ABS machines I have are those zortrax.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:05 AM - danzca6: shoot the UM can do .02
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:05 AM - Geof: yes, with the .25 nozzle it came with and considerably faster than the robo, but to new to try anything until I get it running reliably (proven lol)
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:05 AM - Geof: hate to think what that fail would have done if I dind't have a back up going :D
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:06 AM - danzca6: should put the skull helmet on top of the fail
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:07 AM - Bill Monroe: idont have pics.. it's in the hanger and I always forget, but they would be uninteresting anyway as the insulation, heater bars, and fans hide everything
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:07 AM - Geof: lol. It was pretty epic. 29 hours in and bam huge layer shift.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:07 AM - danzca6: was it the pulley being loose that caused it?
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:08 AM - Bill Monroe: i basically emulated all the neat stuff in a Stratasys Prodigy, except my nozzles ride on seperate carriages
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:08 AM - danzca6: like your sigma geof
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:09 AM - Geof: I think so Danz. Wont know for sure without more testing. I'm guessing it was either that or not enough lubrication on the rods (there was some but my ditto also gantry needs a ton to move smoothly at the speeds it prints)
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:09 AM - Geof: Dual Extruder bill?
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:09 AM - Bill Monroe: ya.. dual
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:10 AM - Bill Monroe: seperate carriages solved all the problems on the cheap
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:10 AM - Geof: any issues your finding with the 2 seperate carriages? The sigma is painfully slow.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:10 AM - Geof: (alot of travel time betweent he two with the constant going home)
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:10 AM - Bill Monroe: not a single one.. I really like being able to purge and whipe the nozzles each time, just like the pro machines
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:12 AM - Bill Monroe: i also abandoned the reprap model... my surface moves up and down. the X carriages ride on a gantry for Y
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:16 AM - danzca6: haha...just got a text from my coworker. I put a 4 ft tall darth vader in her office this morning for her son. Scared the crap out of her when she turned on the lights
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:20 AM - Geof: have you seen the sigma Bill? Sounds alot like that, just dual extrusion probably 2.5x longer print times than single (I was expecting that lol). Your machine sounds incredibly similar.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:21 AM - Bill Monroe: i've seen pics.. dont know why it would take all that much longer unless their nozzle-change routine is inefficient
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:22 AM - Bill Monroe: mine is much bigger though...
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:27 AM - Geof: no its pretty much finish, go home, next one starts. just adds a lot of time swapping (the one going home has to get home before the other comes out to play)
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:30 AM - danzca6: ok...I have a spare toaster over and have been thinking of making it into a reflow oven http://whizoo.com/
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:30 AM - danzca6: maybe I'm just being crazy
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:30 AM - Geof: reflow for surface mount?
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:30 AM - danzca6: yep
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:31 AM - Geof: I use a variable temp heat gun that I have for heat shrink tubing lol
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:31 AM - danzca6: does that work pretty well?
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:32 AM - Geof: lol I dont know about well but its functional. I'm a mechanic so not much care goes into stuff as long as it functions properly at the end :D. I have the JST certs for surface mount rework and their tools pretty much looked just like it lol
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:32 AM - Geof: but had a nifty stand to hold the board :D
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:33 AM - daniel871: This is a review for the printer Geof is talking about Bill. http://3dprintingcenter.net/2016/06/13/sigma-from-bcn3d-3d-printer-review/
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:33 AM - daniel871: A fair number of pictures in it.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:34 AM - Bill Monroe: seen it
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:34 AM - danzca6: I just want to get into electonics more and thought it might be fun...I'll see how it goes
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:34 AM - danzca6: morning daniel
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:34 AM - Bill Monroe: i finished mine mid 2014. old news now.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:34 AM - Bill Monroe: wait.. mid 2015
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:35 AM - daniel871: Morning.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:35 AM - daniel871: I was expecting it to be much colder today and wore warm clothes to work.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:36 AM - WheresWaldo: Morning gentlemen.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:37 AM - danzca6: morning WW
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:37 AM - WheresWaldo: What's everyone up to this morning?
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:37 AM - danzca6: brb...cookie run
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:37 AM - daniel871: Well, nothing glamorous, but I've figured out a semi-useful purpose for my 3d printer.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:38 AM - WheresWaldo: Pray tell?
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:38 AM - daniel871: Templates for marking/drilling/etc. assembly pieces for some craft kits for wood decorative stuff my mom comes up with.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:39 AM - WheresWaldo: A useful purpose, I have made drill guides also, works great for that.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:39 AM - daniel871: Relatively thin template panels to follow with a laminate trimmer, etc.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:40 AM - daniel871: Stuff to use in the interim while figuring out the best way to mimic the Maslow CNC design that has been published so far.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:41 AM - Geof: hi waldo, hi daniel.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:41 AM - WheresWaldo: Geof
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:46 AM - WheresWaldo: So Geof, what's new?
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:47 AM - daniel871: Did anyone else back that LokBuild project?
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:48 AM - WheresWaldo: I have stayed away from most kickstarter projects.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:49 AM - daniel871: I've only backed two.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:49 AM - daniel871: Looks like both of them might actually ship.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:51 AM - Geof: Hey Waldo. Not much man, UM and baby nozzle lol
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:55 AM - WheresWaldo: I am taking a break for a bit, just playing around with the new OctoPrint 1.3.0 and seeing if I can muck up a better theme than the one Robo forked from someone else. Until I get the LED's I ordered.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 6:57 AM - Geof: yea? No printing happening?
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:00 AM - WheresWaldo: Not at the moment, I have everything I sell tested now. So I need to design a new Robo foot with a GoPro mount on it to use for the OctoPrint project but that is about it. Oh that an a new UM style extruder for my Eustathios Spider.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:06 AM - danzca6: WW I did a remix of your 30mm fan mount that makes the channels for the wires bigger. I hope to install it this week sometime

    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:07 AM - danzca6: My 25mm fan is giving up on me
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:08 AM - WheresWaldo: Cool, I rarely go back to old models, so I appreciate it when someone else fixes my stupid mistakes.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:08 AM - WheresWaldo: 25 mm fans all suck.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:09 AM - danzca6: they do indeed
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:09 AM - danzca6: If it works I'll post it on Thingiverse
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:10 AM - danzca6: I seem to never have enough room with the wires
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:11 AM - Geof: Using the olson style extruder waldo ?
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:11 AM - danzca6: oh, and I tested the temp stat led feature...doesn't work the way I thought it should, but it does work
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:19 AM - WheresWaldo: No, I modified the new E3D STEP files to work on the Spider.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:19 AM - WheresWaldo: Dan, what did you expect?
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:21 AM - danzca6: I expected it to light up blue while heating until it got past a certain temp (55) and then turn red. Looks like it is red while heating and will turn blue while cooling
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:22 AM - WheresWaldo: Well that is different than the comments in the code, but workable.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:22 AM - danzca6: right, that is what confused me at first
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:23 AM - danzca6: I wish the RAMPS had more servo pins
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:23 AM - danzca6: I really like my RRD fan extender, but would have to give it up for the LED
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:23 AM - WheresWaldo: It could be that they haven't updated that part of the code, yet.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:24 AM - danzca6: I see that a place in AU has what is called TinyFan that replaced the RRD and only uses 2 of the servo pins
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:24 AM - danzca6: so I could do the Blue and Red led pins
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:24 AM - WheresWaldo: You could tap into the connector for the fan, just solder a few wire leads. As far as I can tell, even thogh the smart adapter covers all the pins, the LCD doesn't use them all.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:25 AM - danzca6: hmmm
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:25 AM - danzca6: I may look into that
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:25 AM - danzca6: thanks
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:25 AM - WheresWaldo: I meant LCD not fan
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:25 AM - danzca6: yeah I knew what you meant
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:26 AM - danzca6: This is why I need another printer...I play too much with it and lose printing time :)
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:26 AM - WheresWaldo: I think the default is pins 34, 35 and 43 IIRC.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:27 AM - WheresWaldo: I am still waiting for Robo to offer me a free R2, :D
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:27 AM - danzca6: they ever announce the winners for the model challenge you entered
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:27 AM - danzca6: I think a lot of folks are waiting for them to just ship the C2
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:28 AM - WheresWaldo: Yes, only on their facebook page. Don't use Facebook, so didn't care. Especially since it wasn't me.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:28 AM - danzca6: yeah I don't use it either
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:28 AM - danzca6: I do wonder what designs they picked now...yours sounded pretty cool
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:29 AM - WheresWaldo: They are still working on the interface. They really need to hire real full-time programmers and stop doing all this stupid forking and modifying of others code.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:30 AM - WheresWaldo: I'll send you my Fusion 360 file, or make it public on Autodesk.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:30 AM - danzca6: yeah I would like to see it if you don't mind
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:31 AM - Geof: Hey Waldo, we've been hearing about gifted printers for a while now...I'm thinking maybe just talk at this point :D
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:32 AM - Geof: I'm guessing they have hit some serious issues with the production of them, I havent seen anyone with one and it was suppose to ship November?
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:34 AM - WheresWaldo: https://gallery.autodesk.com/fusion360/projects/pc-accessories?popupSNS=true
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:34 AM - danzca6: last update is they sent out a survey to the C2 backers
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:34 AM - Geof: a survey?
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:34 AM - WheresWaldo: I really think it is software issues. They pulled their GITHUB repository on the LCD
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:34 AM - danzca6: yeah not sure if that was to collect shipping info or not
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:35 AM - WheresWaldo: Even though the LCD was forked from someone else.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:35 AM - danzca6: I think you might be right WW, too much was not being shown during the KS to make me feel like everything was totally baked yet
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:35 AM - WheresWaldo: And their octoprint_robotheme still needs a lot of work.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:36 AM - WheresWaldo: Again forked from Voxel8
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:36 AM - Geof: I could believe that :D. I never actually saw a running machine that I can recall just a machine with a print on the bed.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:37 AM - WheresWaldo: I did look at the new Leapfrog Bolt and what they have done with OctoPrint. They actually built a responsive theme for it. I think it is ugly, but shows potential.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:39 AM - WheresWaldo: All I am trying to do is mimic most of the functionality with new icons, and I didn't want to start with OctoPi. I think it is kinda bloated.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:39 AM - WheresWaldo: Dan, were you able to see Autodesk link.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:40 AM - danzca6: yes i was able to open it
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:41 AM - danzca6: looks good. I'll have to take a closer look when I get home tonight
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:42 AM - WheresWaldo: Pretty simple design, but I thought it might be nice to print and assemble for their intended market.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:46 AM - danzca6: Can't seem to find pin 34 on the RAMPS lol...pin 43 is open on aux-4, but pin 35 is used for the controller
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:51 AM - WheresWaldo: I don't know why they used D34, that is used by E1 for Direction.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:51 AM - WheresWaldo: Maybe it's a typo.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:51 AM - WheresWaldo: I don't think the controller actually uses D35, I think it is just covered.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:54 AM - danzca6: no it does. I checked the schematics and even the pin assignements show it in Marlin
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:54 AM - danzca6: for pin D35
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:55 AM - WheresWaldo: Ah, okay. There just isn't a lot of documentation or anyone that has tried and published on the web.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:56 AM - danzca6: yeah...the one extra pin, D43 might be enough for me though
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:57 AM - WheresWaldo: Do you know what LED2-4 do on the RAMPS board?
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:57 AM - danzca6: I may redisign the LCD enclosure to account for the single LCD board just for fun
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:57 AM - danzca6: ummm...not off hand
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:57 AM - WheresWaldo: I think LED1 is on all the time there is power
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:58 AM - danzca6: 3/4 might be for when uploading
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:58 AM - danzca6: I think I see one of those flashing when communicating with the PC
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:59 AM - danzca6: I'd have to look closer
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:59 AM - WheresWaldo: okay, I guess I need to watch them, LED2 is behind on of the MOSFETs, Q3.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 7:59 AM - danzca6: yep
    Dec 12, 2016 at 8:00 AM - WheresWaldo: I would rather Marlin control all that stuff, rather than relying on OctoPrint.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 8:04 AM - danzca6: my son and I are building a tabletop arcade machine. So I have another rPi3 coming for that. I need to play more with OctoPrint
    Dec 12, 2016 at 8:05 AM - WheresWaldo: I have a build that will fit on a 4GB microSD, smaller than OctoPi and more in line with the official OctoPrint Wiki.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 8:07 AM - WheresWaldo: I am using the newest Jessie_lite and drivers for the Waveshare 3.5", but all the Waveshare drivers are there. Still not TFT UI.
    Dec 12, 2016 at 1:24 PM - David Sale: Hello all. I have a question, to run by you all before I create a post. When I start a new print it is as if the extruder is 1 or 2 mm "to low". It will dig in to the tape sometimes. After the first pass or two everything seems to come out fine. Any ideas?
    Dec 12, 2016 at 2:22 PM - Toro1966: Afternoon all!
    Dec 12, 2016 at 2:44 PM - BryZad: Afternoon

    Dec 13, 2016 12:39 PM - Geof: Hi shane. Going well. Had a layer shift issue but believe its been resolved. Printing strong :)
    Dec 13, 2016 1:04 PM - Shane Simino: And how does the print quality compare?
    Dec 13, 2016 6:11 PM - Geof: Sorry for the delay. Mt r1+ is pretty tined but cant compete in print quality. Diifferent style priner. This one from factory is capable of 20 micron printing
