Mar 10, 2015 10:34 AM - Ben R: and your print thickness? 1?
Mar 10, 2015 10:35 AM - Ben R: no..
Mar 10, 2015 10:35 AM - Ben R: so.. do you have the volcano or is a regular style block capable of keeping up with that volume?
Mar 10, 2015 10:35 AM - Mike Glass: http://community.robo3d.com/index.php?threads/robo-on-steroids.4716/
Mar 10, 2015 10:36 AM - Mike Glass: printing with .8 nozzle, at .6 layer height
Mar 10, 2015 10:36 AM - Mike Glass: all stock
Mar 10, 2015 10:37 AM - Ben R: when I print fast at .3 I can see some big heat drops. if anything's loose, it'll trip the overtemp
Mar 10, 2015 10:37 AM - Ben R: hexagon with giant hole?
Mar 10, 2015 10:37 AM - Ben R: course.. I rarely see PLA.
Mar 10, 2015 10:37 AM - Ben R: you got a lot more watts in reserve with PLA
Mar 10, 2015 10:38 AM - Mike Glass: I normally print abs
Mar 10, 2015 10:38 AM - Ben R: at 1.X nozzle?
Mar 10, 2015 10:39 AM - Ben R: at 1.X nozzle?
Mar 10, 2015 10:40 AM - Mike Glass: I wish I could find a 1.x nozzle but have to go to the volcano I guess
Mar 10, 2015 10:40 AM - Ben R: stupid slow internets
Mar 10, 2015 10:41 AM - Ben R: .8 at .6 layer then?
Mar 10, 2015 10:41 AM - Mike Glass: yea, not sure how much more I could go the extruder motor is just flying.
Mar 10, 2015 10:42 AM - Ben R: bigger gear!
Mar 10, 2015 10:43 AM - Ben R: hmm the mind swirls.. I may end up with 3mm filament and no nozzle at all!
Mar 10, 2015 10:43 AM - Mike Glass: think I need something to rotate my filament out first
Mar 10, 2015 10:44 AM - Mike Glass: did you look a the video on that page i posted
Mar 10, 2015 10:45 AM - Mike Kelly: anyone wanna tell me what the washer stack is on the Y idler bearings?
Mar 10, 2015 10:45 AM - Ben R: neat! I need some of that. I was working under an assumption I read long ago about "you don't want to go over .4. You have set me straight
Mar 10, 2015 10:45 AM - Mike Kelly: I think it's fat, narrow, bearing, narrow
Mar 10, 2015 10:46 AM - Ben R: yup
Mar 10, 2015 10:46 AM - Ben R: big little bearing little big
Mar 10, 2015 10:46 AM - Ben R: bolt

Mar 10, 2015 10:47 AM - Mike Kelly: thanks
Mar 10, 2015 10:48 AM - Ben R: cant you just use a 1mm drill and make a 1mm nozzle? Might be crude.. might work well
Mar 10, 2015 10:48 AM - Ben R: little polishing on a whetstone or 1000 grit
Mar 10, 2015 10:50 AM - Mike Glass: that big probably not big of deal for detail on the nozzle.
Mar 10, 2015 10:51 AM - Mike Glass: I just bought 4 nozzles for $12 but they .2.3.4.5
Mar 10, 2015 10:51 AM - Mike Glass: Had to modify them though.
Mar 10, 2015 10:53 AM - Ben R: so is the .8 your doing?
Mar 10, 2015 10:56 AM - TechSupportGo: I just watched that 3d printer netflix movie

Mar 10, 2015 10:58 AM - TechSupportGo: that guy from defcad kinda looks like JT
Mar 10, 2015 10:59 AM - jbigler1986: Just ordered the last .8mm nozzle
Mar 10, 2015 10:59 AM - TechSupportGo: he got a 200k book deal, thats weak! he should have written his own book like i did
Mar 10, 2015 11:00 AM - TechSupportGo: MG how did u print that vase so quick?
Mar 10, 2015 11:01 AM - Ben R: dadgummit... shoulder on my 1mm bit is too fat to get in the nozzle
Mar 10, 2015 11:01 AM - Ben R: you don't need to. Its kind of depressing.. (the movie)
Mar 10, 2015 11:02 AM - Ben R: betrayal... 20 somethings drama
Mar 10, 2015 11:02 AM - TechSupportGo: I want to spoil the ending
Mar 10, 2015 11:03 AM - Mike Kelly: i don't think robo is anywhere near the 604 million mark
Mar 10, 2015 11:03 AM - Ben R: everyone knows the ending....
Mar 10, 2015 11:03 AM - Mike Kelly: who bought a printer lately that has their order number?
Mar 10, 2015 11:03 AM - Ben R: but is it about to be closed source?
Mar 10, 2015 11:03 AM - TechSupportGo: ahhhhaahahahahaha
Mar 10, 2015 11:03 AM - TechSupportGo: me
Mar 10, 2015 11:05 AM - Mike Kelly: so whats your order number
Mar 10, 2015 11:05 AM - TechSupportGo: order #3522
Mar 10, 2015 11:05 AM - TechSupportGo: did it start at 1?
Mar 10, 2015 11:05 AM - Mike Kelly: yes
Mar 10, 2015 11:06 AM - Ben R: so.. is a 3mm nozzle different from a 1.75 mm nozzle?
Mar 10, 2015 11:06 AM - Mike Kelly: so if we multiply that by a very overzealous 800 that's only a potential sales of $2.8million
Mar 10, 2015 11:06 AM - Mike Kelly: though there's also their non-store revenue
Mar 10, 2015 11:07 AM - Mike Kelly: we can probably safely assume they're under 10million gross
Mar 10, 2015 11:07 AM - Ben R: plus R&D in their other 3 products
Mar 10, 2015 11:07 AM - TechSupportGo: how many employed?
Mar 10, 2015 11:07 AM - Ben R: non-store revenue? Sorry I missed my MBA classes... they were all in the morning
Mar 10, 2015 11:08 AM - Mike Kelly: they have other resellers

Mar 10, 2015 11:09 AM - Ben R: not serial nr
Mar 10, 2015 11:09 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah no serial numbers worth knowing about
Mar 10, 2015 11:09 AM - jbigler1986: I got mine from Fry's
Mar 10, 2015 11:09 AM - jbigler1986: About 3 weeks ago
Mar 10, 2015 11:09 AM - Mike Kelly: i'd say they'd MAYBE ordered 6000 printers
Mar 10, 2015 11:10 AM - Ben R: Why would anyone buy anything NOT from amazon... Just ordered a .8 nozzle from EBAY (pennsylvania) with money I got selling extruder gears I printed.

Mar 10, 2015 12:30 PM - TechSupportGo: MEK
Mar 10, 2015 12:30 PM - Mike Glass: calibrate your extruder
Mar 10, 2015 12:30 PM - BryZad: was there a tread about like bearings on the threaded rods ect
Mar 10, 2015 12:31 PM - Mike Glass: ziggy's guide is were I would start
Mar 10, 2015 12:31 PM - Mike Kelly: Yeah search under ziggys threads
Mar 10, 2015 12:31 PM - BryZad: where is that at mike
Mar 10, 2015 12:31 PM - BryZad: cool will try that
Mar 10, 2015 12:31 PM - Mike Kelly: But that's kind of a different issue imo
Mar 10, 2015 12:32 PM - Mike Glass: Helped mine with ribbing
Mar 10, 2015 12:32 PM - BryZad: why you say that
Mar 10, 2015 12:33 PM - TechSupportGo: ribbing to me is caused from some form of rhythmical pattern
Mar 10, 2015 12:33 PM - BryZad: just trying to smooth out more print lines as i can
Mar 10, 2015 12:34 PM - Mike Kelly: Give it a shot. Can't make things worse IMO
Mar 10, 2015 12:34 PM - Mike Glass: Mike, is there something in SW that I can put threads in a part.
Mar 10, 2015 12:34 PM - TechSupportGo: barring in my mind would cause a more sporadic ribbing effect
Mar 10, 2015 12:34 PM - Mike Kelly: I just think the motor position is the true culprit. The rest is kinda band aids
Mar 10, 2015 12:34 PM - Mike Kelly: You make a helix than a lofted cut
Mar 10, 2015 12:36 PM - TechSupportGo: skull is coming along great! http://www.ustream.tv/channel/robo-3d-r1-live-techsupportgo

Mar 10, 2015 12:41 PM - Ben R: night
Mar 10, 2015 12:41 PM - TechSupportGo: that was funny when he said "quick, act like we were talking about something else!"
Mar 10, 2015 12:42 PM - TechSupportGo: night
Mar 10, 2015 12:45 PM - Mike Glass: cioa
Mar 10, 2015 12:45 PM - Mike Glass: caio
Mar 10, 2015 12:46 PM - Mike Glass: my fishbowl cracked
Mar 10, 2015 12:51 PM - TechSupportGo: the support for the dust remover just came right out leaving no marks !!
Mar 10, 2015 12:51 PM - BryZad: crap all the links to Ziggy thread seem to not work
Mar 10, 2015 12:52 PM - Ben R: nooooooooo
Mar 10, 2015 12:52 PM - Ben R: wait.... the big green bowl or a real fish bowl
Mar 10, 2015 12:54 PM - TechSupportGo: noooooo\
Mar 10, 2015 12:55 PM - Mike Glass: the one im printing now
Mar 10, 2015 12:56 PM - Mike Glass: not sure its gonna fit height wise.

Mar 10, 2015 5:20 PM - JamesLogan: My Robo is printing up a storm using MatterControl. Finally printing consistant prints everytime! Thanks boys!
Mar 10, 2015 7:39 PM - TechSupportGo: skull is done
Mar 10, 2015 8:48 PM - jbigler1986: Morning

 

Mar 10, 2015 10:58 PM - jbigler1986: How easy is it to recess letters on a part?
Mar 10, 2015 10:59 PM - jbigler1986: I know that it's pretty easy to add text that sticks out. But not sure on recessing it
Mar 10, 2015 11:05 PM - Bob64: depends on what modeling program your using?
Mar 10, 2015 11:11 PM - jbigler1986: I just used tikercad to add text since I'm good with 3d modeling at all really
Mar 10, 2015 11:13 PM - jbigler1986: meant to say NOT good
Mar 10, 2015 11:33 PM - Mike Kelly: morning
Mar 10, 2015 11:34 PM - jbigler1986: Morning
Mar 10, 2015 11:46 PM - jbigler1986: Anything interesting happening
Mar 10, 2015 11:46 PM - Mike Kelly: doesn't seem to be
Mar 10, 2015 11:48 PM - jbigler1986: How easy is it to add recessed text to a stl file
Mar 10, 2015 11:51 PM - Mike Glass: mornin
Mar 10, 2015 11:51 PM - jbigler1986: Hola
Mar 10, 2015 11:52 PM - Mike Glass: qué pasa
Mar 10, 2015 11:54 PM - Mike Kelly: oh hmm
Mar 10, 2015 11:54 PM - Mike Kelly: i bet in blender you could do that
Mar 10, 2015 11:54 PM - Mike Kelly: sup mike
Mar 10, 2015 11:54 PM - Mike Glass: eww blender
Mar 10, 2015 11:54 PM - jbigler1986: hmm.
Mar 10, 2015 11:54 PM - jbigler1986: Wat is the easiest software for something like that do you think?
Mar 10, 2015 11:55 PM - Mike Glass: sketchup?
Mar 10, 2015 11:56 PM - Mike Glass: licuadora chupa
Mar 10, 2015 11:58 PM - jbigler1986: let me load a cube in sketchup and see
Mar 11, 2015 12:01 AM - Mike Kelly: oh i thought you meant like a pre-existing stl
Mar 11, 2015 12:03 AM - jbigler1986: well yeah. Like open a cube stl then add inset text to it
Mar 11, 2015 12:07 AM - jbigler1986: Nevermind. That doesn't work. Can't load stl in sketchup
Mar 11, 2015 12:10 AM - Mike Glass: just load the extention for stl
Mar 11, 2015 12:13 AM - Bob64: urgh just thinking of blender and boolean operations to create manifold geometry makes me want to cry.
Mar 11, 2015 12:13 AM - Mike Kelly: i really can't do mesh modeling
Mar 11, 2015 12:13 AM - Bob64: especially with complex polygons like a set of text
Mar 11, 2015 12:14 AM - Bob64: i wish there was an easier way to combine polygons without generating a huge increase in triangles on the joining faces
Mar 11, 2015 12:21 AM - Mike Kelly: what happened to all the people building CNC's
Mar 11, 2015 12:22 AM - jbigler1986: They aren't loading in sketchup after I installed the extension. Blah
Mar 11, 2015 12:23 AM - jbigler1986: Nevermind. It was just insanely zoomed out
Mar 11, 2015 12:26 AM - Mike Glass: Government got to them Mike
Mar 11, 2015 12:26 AM - Mike Kelly: mind your units
Mar 11, 2015 12:27 AM - Mike Kelly: that and real life
Mar 11, 2015 12:27 AM - Mike Glass: or they are broke and cant pay internet
Mar 11, 2015 12:30 AM - Mike Kelly: isn't that what the GI bill is for?
Mar 11, 2015 12:34 AM - Mike Kelly: http://www.instructables.com/id/DIY-functional-Sonic-Screwdriver/ ok this looks like fun
Mar 11, 2015 12:47 AM - jbigler1986: I figured out how to do do it in tinkercad. Just need to find out how to stand the text up
Mar 11, 2015 12:52 AM - jbigler1986: ahhh.
Mar 11, 2015 12:52 AM - jbigler1986: Ok next software to try?
Mar 11, 2015 12:52 AM - Mike Kelly: solidworks
Mar 11, 2015 12:52 AM - jbigler1986: free?
Mar 11, 2015 12:53 AM - jbigler1986: Not like it matter I guess
Mar 11, 2015 12:54 AM - Mike Kelly: exactly
Mar 11, 2015 12:54 AM - Mike Glass: http://imgur.com/2XML8BS
Mar 11, 2015 12:55 AM - jbigler1986: 2014 or 2015?
Mar 11, 2015 12:55 AM - Mike Kelly: whichever
Mar 11, 2015 12:55 AM - Mike Kelly: 2015 you never have to worry about file compatibility
Mar 11, 2015 12:56 AM - Mike Kelly: is that your battle station mike
Mar 11, 2015 12:56 AM - Mike Glass: yep, this is were I control the whole city
Mar 11, 2015 12:57 AM - jbigler1986: http://imgur.com/PMQJ1xK
Mar 11, 2015 12:57 AM - jbigler1986: Damn. 8GB
Mar 11, 2015 12:58 AM - jbigler1986: Oh well. Won't take long. 100mb down
Mar 11, 2015 12:58 AM - Mike Glass: I like your chair
Mar 11, 2015 12:59 AM - Mike Kelly: ditto, super jealous of that chair
Mar 11, 2015 12:59 AM - jbigler1986: We sell those. Licensed NFL, MLB, NCAA, NHL
Mar 11, 2015 12:59 AM - jbigler1986: http://www.wildsports.com/
Mar 11, 2015 12:59 AM - jbigler1986: That's the company I work for
Mar 11, 2015 1:00 AM - Mike Glass: infant seats. Really?
Mar 11, 2015 1:00 AM - jbigler1986: Yeah. Just starting those this month.
Mar 11, 2015 1:01 AM - jbigler1986: Only going to be sold in stores though. Target, Buy Buy Baby and I don't recall the other off the top of my head
Mar 11, 2015 1:01 AM - Mike Glass: $400 for a chair?
Mar 11, 2015 1:02 AM - jbigler1986: Never buy from our website. Staples sells them for 229 I believe
Mar 11, 2015 1:03 AM - jbigler1986: Staples, Hayneedle, Target, Amazon, Dicks Sporting Goods, Sports Authority, Wayfair
Mar 11, 2015 1:03 AM - Mike Glass: Im not that big fan of sports anyways.
Mar 11, 2015 1:03 AM - Mike Kelly: hmm i thought i had a picture of my wall of monitors but i can't find one
Mar 11, 2015 1:03 AM - Mike Kelly: and don't feel like cleaning my desk
Mar 11, 2015 1:03 AM - jbigler1986: I'm a pretty big sports fan so I love my job.
Mar 11, 2015 1:03 AM - Mike Kelly: also a 400 chair really isn't that expensive
Mar 11, 2015 1:04 AM - Mike Glass: We cleaned on Friday the whole office I cleared crap out of here.
Mar 11, 2015 1:04 AM - jbigler1986: Except for dealing with Dicks Sporting Goods. They are dicks
Mar 11, 2015 1:04 AM - Mike Glass: Mike, here people are cheap..lol
Mar 11, 2015 1:04 AM - Mike Kelly: ba-dum-tisk
Mar 11, 2015 1:04 AM - Mike Kelly: i hear that mike
Mar 11, 2015 1:05 AM - Mike Kelly: one of the only reason to work for the government, if you request something ergonomic they're forced to give it to you
Mar 11, 2015 1:05 AM - bigwookiee: LOL
Mar 11, 2015 1:05 AM - Mike Glass: Yep, we all now have the standing desk, except me ,as it would not hold my 4 monitors..lol
Mar 11, 2015 1:06 AM - bigwookiee: I think its more like the gov. dose not care what it spends money on.
Mar 11, 2015 1:06 AM - jbigler1986: Had a goverment job. Granted it was the Military. Benefits sucked. Pay sucked. Only good thing was all of the days off. And shooting some cool shit
Mar 11, 2015 1:06 AM - Mike Kelly: just as long as you spend 2 hours filling out forms and getting bids from vendors
Mar 11, 2015 1:06 AM - Mike Kelly: for a stapler
Mar 11, 2015 1:07 AM - jbigler1986: Lol
Mar 11, 2015 1:08 AM - jbigler1986: 50 steps for something that could have been solved in about 2
Mar 11, 2015 1:08 AM - Mike Kelly: and then 3 hours of mandatory training on proper stapler usage
Mar 11, 2015 1:08 AM - bigwookiee: lol
Mar 11, 2015 1:08 AM - jbigler1986: Seems about right
Mar 11, 2015 1:09 AM - jbigler1986: Looks like I have to wait until tomorrow for my E3Dv6. "I HATE YOU USPS")
Mar 11, 2015 1:10 AM - jbigler1986: Took a day and a half to go from Delaware to Philly
Mar 11, 2015 1:11 AM - Mike Kelly:
Mar 11, 2015 1:12 AM - jbigler1986: Oh well. Never found out where that missing nut went either. Weird
Mar 11, 2015 1:16 AM - jbigler1986: Also what o you guess suggest to hold the cables? The damn cable catches on the zip tie alot. Probably giving me some print issues
Mar 11, 2015 1:17 AM - Mike Kelly: like up top?
Mar 11, 2015 1:17 AM - jbigler1986: Guys not guess
Mar 11, 2015 1:17 AM - jbigler1986: Yeah
Mar 11, 2015 1:18 AM - Mike Kelly: what do you mean it catches
Mar 11, 2015 1:19 AM - jbigler1986: It gets stuck on the zip tie that's holding it up at the top of the case. THen it takes a little force to get it unstuck. It doesn't move smooth through the zip tie going back and forth
Mar 11, 2015 1:20 AM - Mike Kelly: you could add a second zip tie or string to give it a loop
Mar 11, 2015 1:21 AM - jbigler1986: It has a zip tie at the top. Then another zip tie attached to that one in a loop. It catches on the zip tie that's in the loop.

 

Mar 11, 2015 1:22 AM - Mike Kelly: you could use string then
Mar 11, 2015 1:22 AM - Mike Kelly: a cable chain is the best option however
Mar 11, 2015 1:23 AM - jbigler1986: might go that route
Mar 11, 2015 1:24 AM - jbigler1986: It honestly probably screws up some of my prints. Thats how bad it catches
Mar 11, 2015 1:24 AM - Mike Kelly: that's pretty crazy
Mar 11, 2015 1:24 AM - Mike Kelly: mine just kinda drapes over the front and i secure it to the x motor mount
Mar 11, 2015 1:26 AM - jbigler1986: Let me search for the cable chain
Mar 11, 2015 1:26 AM - Mike Kelly: god that sonic screwdriver build is hella impressive
Mar 11, 2015 1:28 AM - Mike Kelly: is it possible to remove something from a thingiverse collection?
Mar 11, 2015 1:29 AM - Mike Kelly: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:119814 this chain is pretty popular
Mar 11, 2015 1:29 AM - jbigler1986: I like that. Didn't want to print a whole carriage
Mar 11, 2015 1:44 AM - jbigler1986: Will print that probably Friday or tomorrow night
Mar 11, 2015 1:45 AM - jbigler1986: Was that picture I upload good enough for those 2 bolts?
Mar 11, 2015 1:46 AM - Mike Kelly: yup that was perfect
Mar 11, 2015 1:46 AM - Mike Kelly: need to get around to adding it to the e3d thread
Mar 11, 2015 1:54 AM - jbigler1986: Yep
Mar 11, 2015 1:55 AM - jbigler1986: I need to go through all Robo videos to see where the nut goes
Mar 11, 2015 1:55 AM - Mike Glass: didnt you pull a screw out?
Mar 11, 2015 1:56 AM - Mike Glass: thats the nut that goes to it?
Mar 11, 2015 1:57 AM - Mike Kelly: i'm really excited for this: http://techcrunch.com/2015/03/09/onshape-launches-mother-of-all-products/
Mar 11, 2015 1:57 AM - Mike Kelly: bigler did you check the Y bearing bolts?
Mar 11, 2015 1:57 AM - jbigler1986: Yeah but I put those 2 nuts back in. Plus those were lock nuts
Mar 11, 2015 1:57 AM - jbigler1986: uh. Where are those located?
Mar 11, 2015 1:57 AM - Mike Kelly: well you know how the Y belt runs right?
Mar 11, 2015 1:58 AM - Mike Kelly: it's under the middle plate
Mar 11, 2015 1:58 AM - jbigler1986: Yes
Mar 11, 2015 1:59 AM - Mike Kelly: you checked those?
Mar 11, 2015 1:59 AM - jbigler1986: I lifted up the heated bed and couldn't see any visible bolts. I moved all of those parts and they all seems snug
Mar 11, 2015 2:00 AM - jbigler1986: are the nuts on the bottom side of the robo?
Mar 11, 2015 2:00 AM - Mike Kelly: right, if you have a bottom panel cover you remove that
Mar 11, 2015 2:01 AM - jbigler1986: Ok. That's where it seemed to fall out of
Mar 11, 2015 2:01 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah it's probably for the Y bearing bolts
Mar 11, 2015 2:01 AM - jbigler1986: Obviously if thats where it came from than one of those parts is loose
Mar 11, 2015 2:02 AM - jbigler1986: Cause print issues if it's loose?
Mar 11, 2015 2:03 AM - Mike Glass: I had to tighten every nut, screw, thread on my robo, think it vibrated loose on the way over.
Mar 11, 2015 2:05 AM - jbigler1986: Well since nothing seemed loose when I wiggled stuff I didn't actually check the nuts.
Mar 11, 2015 2:05 AM - jbigler1986: Looks like I will be now since I will have the bottom cover off anyways
Mar 11, 2015 2:05 AM - Mike Kelly: the tension of the Y belt will keep those bolts in place but it's a good idea to tighten it down
Mar 11, 2015 2:06 AM - Mike Kelly: if that's the nut that fell out they're probably using 2 in a jam nut fashion
Mar 11, 2015 2:06 AM - Mike Glass: waiting for my invite MK for onshape
Mar 11, 2015 2:06 AM - Mike Kelly: when did you submit
Mar 11, 2015 2:07 AM - Mike Glass: 4 min ago..lol
Mar 11, 2015 2:08 AM - Mike Kelly: ah lol
Mar 11, 2015 2:12 AM - jbigler1986: Anybody here have google fiber?
Mar 11, 2015 2:13 AM - jbigler1986: oh MG how did the mount turn out?
Mar 11, 2015 2:21 AM - Mike Glass: Still trying to put a screw thread in it.
Mar 11, 2015 2:22 AM - Mike Glass: didn't have alot of time last night though
Mar 11, 2015 2:23 AM - Mike Glass: I cant work without my spacenavigator, left it at work.
Mar 11, 2015 2:24 AM - jbigler1986: http://thingiverse-production.s3.am...9/f7/webcam-holder_clamp_preview_featured.jpg
Mar 11, 2015 2:24 AM - Mike Kelly: i really need one for home
Mar 11, 2015 2:25 AM - jbigler1986: I print that a while ago to see if I could get it to work somehow. The threads and screw came out great
Mar 11, 2015 2:25 AM - jbigler1986: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:58045
Mar 11, 2015 2:25 AM - jbigler1986: Just couldn't figure out a way to mount it
Mar 11, 2015 2:26 AM - jbigler1986: Although now looking at it. Looks like you could just mount it like the current one. I'm dumb
Mar 11, 2015 2:27 AM - Mike Glass: doh
Mar 11, 2015 2:27 AM - Mike Glass: could work, but I want it to swivel out of the way to spray the bed.
Mar 11, 2015 2:27 AM - Mike Kelly: drill the case, breaks it's cherry
Mar 11, 2015 2:28 AM - jbigler1986: So you want to add a swivel to the mount too?
Mar 11, 2015 2:28 AM - Mike Glass: yep
Mar 11, 2015 2:28 AM - Mike Glass: one more damn screw..lol
Mar 11, 2015 2:29 AM - jbigler1986: I bought 3 packs of 12 so I'm ok with that
Mar 11, 2015 2:39 AM - Mike Kelly: this onshape videos are pretty impressive
Mar 11, 2015 2:40 AM - jbigler1986: Speaking of software. Gonna check on my download
Mar 11, 2015 2:40 AM - jbigler1986: I mean netflix movie stream
Mar 11, 2015 2:42 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah 8.3 gigs takes a while to get
Mar 11, 2015 2:42 AM - jbigler1986: Not to bad. I get 4.3 actual download speed usually
Mar 11, 2015 2:43 AM - jbigler1986: mb that is
Mar 11, 2015 2:44 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah
Mar 11, 2015 2:44 AM - Mike Kelly: my comcast speeds have been pretty decent
Mar 11, 2015 2:44 AM - jbigler1986: I have brighthouse. Pretty much the same
Mar 11, 2015 2:45 AM - jbigler1986: No cable though. That's what netflix and htpc's are for
Mar 11, 2015 2:45 AM - jbigler1986: Have 2 beastly computers connected to tv in bedroom and living room. I game on them sometimes. Rarely though
Mar 11, 2015 2:46 AM - jbigler1986: So since I'm always streaming I need good internet
Mar 11, 2015 2:47 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah we cut the cord a few years back but we watch too much NCAAF and NHL to get rid of it
Mar 11, 2015 2:48 AM - jbigler1986: I watch that stuff all of the time from pc. Plenty of sights to get live streams from
Mar 11, 2015 2:48 AM - jbigler1986: Usually not HD but it's free (besides internet fees)
Mar 11, 2015 2:48 AM - jbigler1986: sites*
Mar 11, 2015 2:49 AM - Mike Kelly: DVR and HD makes it worth the $20 more a month we were paying for cable
Mar 11, 2015 2:49 AM - Mike Kelly: those free sites have really annoying ads
Mar 11, 2015 2:50 AM - jbigler1986: Yeah they do. Once you actually get the streaming started though the ads don't pop up again. Granted you have to close about 30 to get the stream started
Mar 11, 2015 2:50 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah and then there's like a 50% chance it won't work the first time
Mar 11, 2015 2:51 AM - Mike Kelly: if century link can get me more than 40mbps in my neighborhood by next year when our 2 year deal runs out we'll probably cord cut again
Mar 11, 2015 2:58 AM - jbigler1986: I have 50 right now.
Mar 11, 2015 2:58 AM - jbigler1986: Have to many devices connected to go below that
Mar 11, 2015 2:59 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah that's what i'm at
Mar 11, 2015 2:59 AM - Mike Kelly: they sent out an advert for 80 (in some areas)
Mar 11, 2015 2:59 AM - Mike Kelly: bastards
Mar 11, 2015 2:59 AM - Mike Kelly: i have no hope of comcast installing fiber in my neighborhood
Mar 11, 2015 3:00 AM - Mike Kelly: but i've seen the century link trucks laying cable
Mar 11, 2015 3:00 AM - jbigler1986: we all need google fiber
Mar 11, 2015 3:00 AM - Mike Kelly: god i know right
Mar 11, 2015 3:00 AM - Mike Kelly: if you look at the map of who has google fiber i'm smack dab in the middle
Mar 11, 2015 3:01 AM - jbigler1986: You are in Montona?
Mar 11, 2015 3:01 AM - jbigler1986: Montana*
Mar 11, 2015 3:01 AM - Mike Kelly: denver
Mar 11, 2015 3:02 AM - jbigler1986: Oh
Mar 11, 2015 3:02 AM - jbigler1986: I use to live in the Springs
Mar 11, 2015 3:02 AM - jbigler1986: Well Fort Carson to be exact
Mar 11, 2015 3:02 AM - Mike Kelly: right
Mar 11, 2015 3:02 AM - Mike Kelly: that's a place i'd never live

 

Mar 11, 2015 3:03 AM - jbigler1986: Springs?
Mar 11, 2015 3:03 AM - Mike Kelly: yup
Mar 11, 2015 3:03 AM - jbigler1986: North Colorado Springs is nice. Other than that it's a shit hole
Mar 11, 2015 3:04 AM - Mike Kelly: denver's just so much better
Mar 11, 2015 3:04 AM - Mike Kelly: it's real pretty there
Mar 11, 2015 3:04 AM - Mike Kelly: in co springs
Mar 11, 2015 3:04 AM - jbigler1986: Yeah I agree. I like the Lone Tree area I think is what it's called
Mar 11, 2015 3:05 AM - Mike Kelly: https://plus.google.com/u/1/105919978538266401129/posts/bPhUkECT8fL?cfem=1 this is sweet
Mar 11, 2015 3:05 AM - jbigler1986: That's awesome
Mar 11, 2015 3:06 AM - jbigler1986: I loved going to Blackhawk
Mar 11, 2015 3:07 AM - jbigler1986: That place was awesome
Mar 11, 2015 3:08 AM - Mike Kelly: i should really go out there
Mar 11, 2015 3:08 AM - Mike Kelly: i mostly just gamble in vegas
Mar 11, 2015 3:09 AM - jbigler1986: Well yeah. That's the the best
Mar 11, 2015 3:09 AM - Mike Kelly: https://plus.google.com/u/1/+JohnSaid/posts/b9Njjhg4Nv5?cfem=1 surprisingly clever
Mar 11, 2015 3:09 AM - jbigler1986: Nowhere good here around me now. Just a few random casinos
Mar 11, 2015 3:12 AM - jbigler1986: Do you have any other printers
Mar 11, 2015 3:12 AM - Mike Kelly: rep2 at home and 2x at work
Mar 11, 2015 3:13 AM - jbigler1986: so how many all together
Mar 11, 2015 3:13 AM - Mike Glass: 123
Mar 11, 2015 3:13 AM - Mike Kelly: 3
Mar 11, 2015 3:13 AM - Mike Kelly: i only "own" one of them though
Mar 11, 2015 3:13 AM - jbigler1986: Once I get my Robo going I will get another for sure
Mar 11, 2015 3:14 AM - jbigler1986: Just not sure what. I like how open the ROBO is and the community is great
Mar 11, 2015 3:14 AM - Mike Glass: they will probably pull a makerbot
Mar 11, 2015 3:14 AM - Mike Kelly: i'd build the HercuLien
Mar 11, 2015 3:16 AM - Mike Glass: dont you mean a Eric Lien
Mar 11, 2015 3:17 AM - Mike Kelly: that's the maker
Mar 11, 2015 3:21 AM - jbigler1986: Just got my threaded thermosister
Mar 11, 2015 3:22 AM - Mike Kelly: nice
Mar 11, 2015 3:28 AM - jbigler1986: How should I wire it up?
Mar 11, 2015 3:29 AM - Mike Kelly: same way?
Mar 11, 2015 3:29 AM - Mike Kelly: it's just a resistor
Mar 11, 2015 3:30 AM - jbigler1986: http://imgur.com/k3eS6k1
Mar 11, 2015 3:30 AM - jbigler1986: Package contents
Mar 11, 2015 3:35 AM - Mike Kelly: hope you have a crimp tool
Mar 11, 2015 3:35 AM - Mike Kelly: that connector might plug into the old jst waterproof
Mar 11, 2015 3:38 AM - jbigler1986: Cut old thermosistor wire. Solder wires on the clips. Insert clips into the connector. Connect threaded thermosistor with connecteor to the once I just soldered up
Mar 11, 2015 3:38 AM - jbigler1986: Sound about right?
Mar 11, 2015 3:40 AM - jbigler1986: Just don't know which one is postitve/negative on the threaded one
Mar 11, 2015 3:45 AM - jbigler1986: Can't seem to find it anywhere either
Mar 11, 2015 4:08 AM - Mike Kelly: there's no polarity, it's a resistor
Mar 11, 2015 4:08 AM - Mike Glass: RESIST OR
Mar 11, 2015 4:11 AM - donhuevo: 'sup gentlemen?
Mar 11, 2015 4:14 AM - Mike Glass: yo don egg
Mar 11, 2015 4:15 AM - jbigler1986: SO can be connected either way basically?
Mar 11, 2015 4:15 AM - Mike Glass: no polarity, not wrong or right
Mar 11, 2015 4:17 AM - jbigler1986: Looks like I have a few things to do then tonight
Mar 11, 2015 4:18 AM - Mike Glass: did you get your 3d3?
Mar 11, 2015 4:18 AM - Mike Glass: E3d maybe
Mar 11, 2015 4:18 AM - jbigler1986: No. Tomorrow. Stupid USPS. Just threaded thermistor
Mar 11, 2015 4:20 AM - jbigler1986: But I will solder and hook this bad boy up then I will take off bottom cover and check for missing nut
Mar 11, 2015 4:26 AM - donhuevo: j, those looked crimp-on to me
Mar 11, 2015 4:32 AM - jbigler1986: Yeah I'm sure I can just put the wire on and crimp it. But solder will make sure there is no looses connection
Mar 11, 2015 4:32 AM - Mike Kelly: they are crimp
Mar 11, 2015 4:33 AM - jbigler1986: Probably will do both
Mar 11, 2015 4:33 AM - Mike Kelly: do you know if the old thermistor connector is male or female?
Mar 11, 2015 4:33 AM - Mike Kelly: if it's male you can should be able to just plug it in
Mar 11, 2015 4:33 AM - jbigler1986: I think its female
Mar 11, 2015 4:35 AM - jbigler1986: If it will be long enough I will just connect it directly. It's not very long though
Mar 11, 2015 4:40 AM - jbigler1986: That's what she said.
Mar 11, 2015 4:46 AM - Ben R: of course if you bought a thermode it would be polar
Mar 11, 2015 4:47 AM - Ben R: my .8 nozzle will be here tuesday. Oh the fat prints I will do.
Mar 11, 2015 4:49 AM - jbigler1986: Mine Friday. Got jealous of mike printing parts in like 5 minutes
Mar 11, 2015 4:49 AM - Ben R: its not all gravy and robot arms.
Mar 11, 2015 4:49 AM - Ben R: but yea. interesting experiment
Mar 11, 2015 5:04 AM - jbigler1986: Anybody have a picture of the clip vs the ribbon cable for the heated bed
Mar 11, 2015 5:05 AM - Mike Kelly: yours is ribbon but yes i do
Mar 11, 2015 5:06 AM - Mike Kelly: http://i.imgur.com/zv1brRE.jpg clip
Mar 11, 2015 5:06 AM - jbigler1986: I knew mine was. Was just wondering what the clip looked like in case somebody asked
Mar 11, 2015 5:06 AM - Mike Kelly: http://i.imgur.com/1vOIcrZ.jpg ribbon
Mar 11, 2015 5:07 AM - jbigler1986: How high can the ribbon temp go?
Mar 11, 2015 5:07 AM - Mike Kelly: max
Mar 11, 2015 5:07 AM - jbigler1986: Clip is like 85 isn't it
Mar 11, 2015 5:07 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah the clip gets too hot and melts then shorts
Mar 11, 2015 5:07 AM - Mike Kelly: the ribbon cable is their solution for that and better bed movement
Mar 11, 2015 5:08 AM - Mike Kelly: but there's like 1000 or so clips out there
Mar 11, 2015 5:08 AM - jbigler1986: Ribbon is like 110? or 100?
Mar 11, 2015 5:08 AM - Mike Kelly: it's more limited by the power of the heater and ambient than the cable
Mar 11, 2015 5:09 AM - Mike Kelly: it's quite overrated for the current
Mar 11, 2015 5:09 AM - Mike Kelly: i'd be hesitant to run 24v over it but i think it can do 20A or so
Mar 11, 2015 5:10 AM - jbigler1986: How high can you safely go on the temp?
Mar 11, 2015 5:11 AM - Mike Kelly: temp isn't really the factor here
Mar 11, 2015 5:11 AM - Mike Kelly: the ribbon cable uses 22gauge wire, 8 total wires
Mar 11, 2015 5:12 AM - jbigler1986: Well before power becomes the issue
Mar 11, 2015 5:12 AM - Mike Kelly: you'd run out of power before there's any danger
Mar 11, 2015 5:12 AM - Mike Kelly: i've taken the heater up to like 170C before
Mar 11, 2015 5:12 AM - jbigler1986: Holy cow
Mar 11, 2015 5:12 AM - jbigler1986: Robo just shut off if it draws to much poer
Mar 11, 2015 5:13 AM - jbigler1986: power
Mar 11, 2015 5:13 AM - Mike Kelly: na it works like this
Mar 11, 2015 5:13 AM - Mike Kelly: the heating element has around 1.2ohms of resistance
Mar 11, 2015 5:13 AM - Mike Kelly: Power = Current x Voltage and Voltage = Current x Resistance
Mar 11, 2015 5:13 AM - Mike Kelly: typo there
Mar 11, 2015 5:14 AM - Mike Kelly: so Power = V^2/R
Mar 11, 2015 5:14 AM - Mike Kelly: at 12v you get around 130W of power
Mar 11, 2015 5:14 AM - Mike Kelly: or 11A
Mar 11, 2015 5:14 AM - Mike Kelly: the PSU has 30A max
Mar 11, 2015 5:14 AM - Mike Kelly: so you'll just run max power until it reaches steady state and not be able to get any warmer
Mar 11, 2015 5:15 AM - jbigler1986: How hot did the actual bed get when you went to 170

 

Mar 11, 2015 5:16 AM - jbigler1986: Did it actually reach 170
Mar 11, 2015 5:20 AM - jbigler1986: Electrical is not my strongest area
Mar 11, 2015 5:24 AM - Mike Kelly: mine is on 24v
Mar 11, 2015 5:24 AM - Mike Kelly: so 24^2/1.2
Mar 11, 2015 5:24 AM - Mike Kelly: i bet it could push like 200C but i can't imagine why i'd need that
Mar 11, 2015 5:25 AM - jbigler1986: lol. just put a piece of PLA on the best and watch it melt. WOuld be crazy
Mar 11, 2015 5:26 AM - Mike Kelly: haha
Mar 11, 2015 5:26 AM - jbigler1986: bed* can't spell today
Mar 11, 2015 5:33 AM - Ben R: So with the heated bed are people trying to A. cause the plastic to be adhesive B. trying to create a heat envelope of air or C trying to conduct heat through plastic to prevent shrinkage till afterwards.
Mar 11, 2015 5:33 AM - Ben R: I see people printing at downright high temps I don't find it to be advantageous.
Mar 11, 2015 5:34 AM - jbigler1986: I think A and C
Mar 11, 2015 5:34 AM - Mike Kelly: http://imgur.com/a/K9Swb#0 god i want a form1
Mar 11, 2015 5:35 AM - Mike Kelly: A and B with C being less critical
Mar 11, 2015 5:35 AM - Ben R: yea.. I wonder about the goo. When the product is finished, what is the post processing
Mar 11, 2015 5:35 AM - Ben R: C being a pipe dream
Mar 11, 2015 5:35 AM - Ben R: A being moot with addition of an adhesive
Mar 11, 2015 5:36 AM - Ben R: Guy at work prints ABS with no heat bed at all. just puts a box over his printrbot
Mar 11, 2015 5:36 AM - Mike Kelly: Plastics thermal conductivity isn't great unless it's like PLA
Mar 11, 2015 5:36 AM - Ben R: prints on tape.
Mar 11, 2015 5:36 AM - Mike Kelly: wow
Mar 11, 2015 5:36 AM - Ben R: and if you're using high temps on PLA
Mar 11, 2015 5:36 AM - Ben R: He prints a lot nicer than I can
Mar 11, 2015 5:36 AM - Ben R: well.. do
Mar 11, 2015 5:37 AM - Ben R: his raw prints look like mine after sanding and acetone vapor bath
Mar 11, 2015 5:37 AM - Ben R: course they're smaller generally
Mar 11, 2015 5:38 AM - Ben R: so with stereo lithographic laser printing... goo printing... what's that resin clean up like? I was talking to a guy at robo.. he said he had worked on them and they were a nightmare.
Mar 11, 2015 5:38 AM - Ben R: just messy as hell
Mar 11, 2015 5:38 AM - Ben R: resin everywhere.
Mar 11, 2015 5:38 AM - jbigler1986: Isn't the "goo" expensive
Mar 11, 2015 5:38 AM - Ben R: I've worked with a lot of resins, just.. just horrible
Mar 11, 2015 5:39 AM - Ben R: but never in a process like 3d printing
Mar 11, 2015 5:39 AM - Ben R: @jbigler1986 expensive... pffff
Mar 11, 2015 5:39 AM - Ben R: one needs raw materials!
Mar 11, 2015 5:41 AM - Mike Kelly: it shouldn't have much since it's pulling the part out
Mar 11, 2015 5:41 AM - Mike Kelly: the resin isn't too bad, $60/L
Mar 11, 2015 5:41 AM - Mike Kelly: you can get form1's software for estimating raw material use
Mar 11, 2015 5:41 AM - Ben R: ML?
Mar 11, 2015 5:41 AM - Mike Kelly: sorry L
Mar 11, 2015 5:42 AM - Mike Kelly: my brain was a step ahead
Mar 11, 2015 5:42 AM - Ben R: !
Mar 11, 2015 5:42 AM - Ben R: yea
Mar 11, 2015 5:42 AM - Ben R: I almost picked one of those up. But the thought of any leak or failure... drips here and there... they don't vacuum up easily
Mar 11, 2015 5:42 AM - Ben R: and I wonder as to the shelf life/ease of storage
Mar 11, 2015 5:42 AM - Mike Kelly: no they don't, and it's toxic
Mar 11, 2015 5:42 AM - Mike Kelly: it's really more for a business application
Mar 11, 2015 5:43 AM - Mike Kelly: but i need to start making more prototypes soon
Mar 11, 2015 5:43 AM - Ben R: I've only ever seen them making little models and action figures
Mar 11, 2015 5:43 AM - Mike Kelly: and with that level of quality i'd be able to forgo a lot of injection molded mishaps
Mar 11, 2015 5:43 AM - Ben R: eh.. but what is the cured resin like in its cured form?
Mar 11, 2015 5:44 AM - Mike Kelly: apparently super strong, you can request a sample of a rook
Mar 11, 2015 5:44 AM - Ben R: I may do that.
Mar 11, 2015 5:44 AM - Mike Kelly: don't get me wrong, FDM is way easier
Mar 11, 2015 5:44 AM - Mike Kelly: but SLA is mighty nice
Mar 11, 2015 5:44 AM - Ben R: strong isn't quite enough adjective for materials... but its a starting point.
Mar 11, 2015 5:45 AM - Ben R: I was just going through and trying to figure out what I should do about making a new printer
Mar 11, 2015 5:45 AM - Mike Kelly: tom sanlander did a demo of one, lemme find the video
Mar 11, 2015 5:45 AM - Mike Kelly: sanladerer
Mar 11, 2015 5:45 AM - Mike Kelly:
Mar 11, 2015 5:46 AM - Ben R: I imagine it being very hard, with zero flexibility. Like cured thermoset
Mar 11, 2015 5:47 AM - Mike Kelly: basically yes
Mar 11, 2015 5:47 AM - Mike Kelly: close to a PC i'd imagine
Mar 11, 2015 5:48 AM - Mike Glass: still slow as shit
Mar 11, 2015 5:48 AM - Mike Glass: over an hour for that small turd
Mar 11, 2015 5:48 AM - Ben R: yea
Mar 11, 2015 5:48 AM - Mike Kelly: he destoys it here:
Mar 11, 2015 5:48 AM - Ben R: you see the one they are kickstartering that does the whole plate at once
Mar 11, 2015 5:48 AM - Mike Kelly: quality > speed
Mar 11, 2015 5:48 AM - Ben R: 10 seconds a layer...
Mar 11, 2015 5:49 AM - Ben R: doesn't matter how many objects on the platter.
Mar 11, 2015 5:49 AM - Ben R: it scans the plate with a laser like one of the sintering printers
Mar 11, 2015 5:49 AM - Ben R: but with resin
Mar 11, 2015 5:50 AM - Mike Glass: Yea I watched that before sla explodes
Mar 11, 2015 5:50 AM - Mike Kelly: yup
Mar 11, 2015 5:50 AM - jbigler1986: Someone is selling one close to me for $2500 with 3 L of resin and a finishing station
Mar 11, 2015 5:51 AM - jbigler1986: http://tippecanoe.craigslist.org/ele/4852609594.html
Mar 11, 2015 5:51 AM - Mike Kelly: lol man
Mar 11, 2015 5:52 AM - Ben R: http://fslaser.com/pegasus-touch-laser-3d-printer-by-fsl3d this one... sounded faster
Mar 11, 2015 5:53 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah DLP's are nice
Mar 11, 2015 5:53 AM - Mike Kelly: but you need a really high resolution projector to make it worth the while
Mar 11, 2015 5:53 AM - Mike Kelly: wait no
Mar 11, 2015 5:53 AM - Mike Kelly: the pegasus is SLA
Mar 11, 2015 5:53 AM - Ben R: is it.. maybe I posted the wrong one
Mar 11, 2015 5:54 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah the pegasus is very similar to the form1
Mar 11, 2015 5:54 AM - Ben R: sorry
Mar 11, 2015 5:54 AM - Ben R: http://www.solidator.com/3D-Printer-Video.html
Mar 11, 2015 5:55 AM - Ben R: I watched both videos in the same few minutes..
Mar 11, 2015 5:56 AM - Mike Kelly: Minimal feature size XY@280x210 mm: 270 microns
Mar 11, 2015 5:56 AM - Mike Kelly: vs SLA: XY Positioning Resolution: 16bit precision, ~3 micron
Mar 11, 2015 5:56 AM - Ben R: hmm... still the idea
Mar 11, 2015 5:56 AM - Ben R: zap next zap
Mar 11, 2015 5:56 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah if you could get like a 4k projector you'd have killer resolution
Mar 11, 2015 5:57 AM - Mike Kelly: right now most use 1080p which unless you have a tiny build volume isn't that small of a pixel size
Mar 11, 2015 5:57 AM - Ben R: yea.. lenses
Mar 11, 2015 5:58 AM - Ben R: no idea the price, but resolution is passable... usable
Mar 11, 2015 5:59 AM - Ben R: no reason one couldn't use both technologies together. do the main mass in DLP then detail in with laser
Mar 11, 2015 5:59 AM - Ben R: I mean, other than price
Mar 11, 2015 5:59 AM - Ben R: and custom slicing
Mar 11, 2015 6:00 AM - Ben R: and massive alignment issues
Mar 11, 2015 6:00 AM - Mike Kelly: hahahaha
Mar 11, 2015 6:00 AM - Mike Kelly: so lots of reasons

 

Mar 11, 2015 6:00 AM - Ben R: 3
Mar 11, 2015 6:00 AM - Ben R: 3 reasons
Mar 11, 2015 6:01 AM - Ben R: we're printing in 3d.. this is the stuff of star trek. those aren't insurmountable
Mar 11, 2015 6:01 AM - Mike Kelly: until it poops out an earl grey i won't be impressed
Mar 11, 2015 6:02 AM - Ben R: hot earl grey.
Mar 11, 2015 6:02 AM - Ben R: You could do that with bowden...
Mar 11, 2015 6:02 AM - Ben R: wait .. that's a keurig
Mar 11, 2015 6:03 AM - Mike Kelly: that is NOT a keurig, how dare you mention that name aroun me
Mar 11, 2015 6:03 AM - Ben R: next big step I think... could/should be some sort of on the fly QC of the layers by the printer itself
Mar 11, 2015 6:03 AM - Ben R: its a machine that poops out earl grey
Mar 11, 2015 6:03 AM - Ben R: yea.. that's a good verb
Mar 11, 2015 6:03 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah it makes shit alright
Mar 11, 2015 6:04 AM - Ben R: wife just bought a big one for the kiddies at work. Luckily I work with old guys. they drink what I make... in the mr coffee
Mar 11, 2015 6:05 AM - Mike Kelly: i'm a bit of a snob, i have a burr grind and brew machine
Mar 11, 2015 6:05 AM - Ben R: I'm sure you are.. cuz you hate coffee
Mar 11, 2015 6:05 AM - Ben R: nah
Mar 11, 2015 6:05 AM - Ben R: I don't understand "y'all"
Mar 11, 2015 6:05 AM - Ben R: My best friend keeps giving me coffee... "this is ethiopian" blah blah blah.. hand grinds.. etc.. "try this"
Mar 11, 2015 6:06 AM - Ben R: yea.. its folgers...
Mar 11, 2015 6:06 AM - Ben R: not bad.. but .. bitter, dark, hot. What else do you need
Mar 11, 2015 6:08 AM - Ben R: man.. what is good on amazon prime/netflix. I think I've seen everything I can think to see
Mar 11, 2015 6:08 AM - Mike Kelly: bring that in every morning so i don't have to drink
Mar 11, 2015 6:08 AM - Mike Kelly: folders*
Mar 11, 2015 6:08 AM - Mike Kelly: i drink a local company, Boyers
Mar 11, 2015 6:08 AM - Mike Kelly: they're really good
Mar 11, 2015 6:08 AM - Mike Kelly: we also have a company that does russian style roasting
Mar 11, 2015 6:09 AM - Mike Kelly: they put a ton of oils on it, it's crazy delicious
Mar 11, 2015 6:09 AM - Mike Kelly: Bojack Horseman
Mar 11, 2015 6:09 AM - Mike Kelly: on netflix
Mar 11, 2015 6:09 AM - Ben R: seen it
Mar 11, 2015 6:09 AM - Mike Kelly: probably watch archer already
Mar 11, 2015 6:09 AM - Mike Kelly: what about venture brothers?
Mar 11, 2015 6:09 AM - Ben R: my faves..
Mar 11, 2015 6:09 AM - Ben R: done to death
Mar 11, 2015 6:10 AM - Mike Kelly: no such thing on either
Mar 11, 2015 6:10 AM - Ben R: I use them as familiar noise to fall asleep to
Mar 11, 2015 6:10 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah we do that for futurama
Mar 11, 2015 6:10 AM - Ben R: I actually have a decal on my luggage and a T shirt for "guild of calamitous intent"
Mar 11, 2015 6:10 AM - Mike Kelly: awesome
Mar 11, 2015 6:10 AM - Ben R: one of my favorite creations
Mar 11, 2015 6:10 AM - Ben R: I wish it went on longer
Mar 11, 2015 6:11 AM - Ben R: but that doc hammer is crazy
Mar 11, 2015 6:11 AM - Ben R: or.. the otherguy.. whichever one was dating/married to trianna's voice
Mar 11, 2015 6:12 AM - Mike Kelly: https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/09/05/d8/0905d84f2c7b568db041b38289faa2dc.jpg this is my favorite sweatshirt

Mar 11, 2015 6:13 AM - Ben R: NLA
Mar 11, 2015 6:14 AM - Ben R: I've probably seen it unless its very recent
Mar 11, 2015 6:14 AM - Mike Kelly: it's very recent
Mar 11, 2015 6:14 AM - Mike Kelly: last month i think
Mar 11, 2015 6:14 AM - Mike Kelly: web only
Mar 11, 2015 6:14 AM - Ben R: guess that's why its NLA
Mar 11, 2015 6:14 AM - Mike Kelly: so i doubt you've seen it
Mar 11, 2015 6:14 AM - Ben R: hmm
Mar 11, 2015 6:15 AM - Ben R: yea.. no ads for it either... but cartoon net hasn't been doing me great lately
Mar 11, 2015 6:15 AM - Ben R: metalocalypse went down hill and away.. venture bros...
Mar 11, 2015 6:15 AM - Ben R: all those crazy things like awesome show great job
Mar 11, 2015 6:15 AM - Mike Kelly: try to see if you can download it

Mar 11, 2015 6:18 AM - Mike Kelly: you watch too much tv
Mar 11, 2015 6:18 AM - Ben R: and blood and sand
Mar 11, 2015 6:18 AM - Ben R: I've worked a lot of nights
Mar 11, 2015 6:18 AM - Ben R: quietly sitting in the basement on days off
Mar 11, 2015 6:18 AM - Ben R: also. When netflix came out, I turned off my cable
Mar 11, 2015 6:18 AM - Mike Kelly: ah yes
Mar 11, 2015 6:18 AM - Mike Kelly: righ
Mar 11, 2015 6:19 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah i'm stumped

Mar 11, 2015 6:19 AM - Mike Kelly: and BB
Mar 11, 2015 6:19 AM - Mike Kelly: and all the other AMC shows
Mar 11, 2015 6:19 AM - Ben R: awesome killenger is back
Mar 11, 2015 6:20 AM - Ben R: I've found I don't like madmen
Mar 11, 2015 6:20 AM - Mike Kelly: we've never been able to make it through an AMC show
Mar 11, 2015 6:20 AM - Mike Kelly: they get too dark
Mar 11, 2015 6:20 AM - Ben R: ha villian "radical left"
Mar 11, 2015 6:21 AM - Ben R: yea.. life is dark enough. got through season 3 of .. that meth show
Mar 11, 2015 6:21 AM - Ben R: breaking bad
Mar 11, 2015 6:21 AM - Mike Glass: loved that show
Mar 11, 2015 6:21 AM - Ben R: now.. I may be due for a battlestar rerun
Mar 11, 2015 6:21 AM - Ben R: never did finish caprica or .. the other one
Mar 11, 2015 6:21 AM - Ben R: speaking of dark

 

Mar 11, 2015 6:22 AM - Ben R: oooh... love that gravity
Mar 11, 2015 6:23 AM - Ben R: jeeze... they revived everyone
Mar 11, 2015 6:33 AM - Mike Kelly: Did you find gargantua 2?
Mar 11, 2015 6:33 AM - Ben R: yea
Mar 11, 2015 6:34 AM - Ben R: references are too mainstream... how can I be a hipster?
Mar 11, 2015 6:35 AM - Ben R: monarch living in the fight club house
Mar 11, 2015 6:36 AM - Mike Kelly: right?
Mar 11, 2015 7:09 AM - Ben R: well worth while
Mar 11, 2015 7:12 AM - Mike Kelly: i told you so
Mar 11, 2015 7:13 AM - Mike Kelly: it was an amazing episode
Mar 11, 2015 7:13 AM - Mike Kelly: one of the best
Mar 11, 2015 7:21 AM - TechSupportGo: yo
Mar 11, 2015 7:21 AM - TechSupportGo: i pay for cable just to watch adult swin every night
Mar 11, 2015 7:26 AM - Ben R: even this year? pretty sad lineup
Mar 11, 2015 7:34 AM - TechSupportGo: MEK or acetone ?
Mar 11, 2015 7:37 AM - Mike Kelly: for?
Mar 11, 2015 7:37 AM - TechSupportGo: I want a smooth finish
Mar 11, 2015 7:38 AM - TechSupportGo: vapor
Mar 11, 2015 7:38 AM - Mike Kelly: on?
Mar 11, 2015 7:39 AM - TechSupportGo: I just want to do the process just to know I can, its on that black skull from last night
Mar 11, 2015 7:39 AM - TechSupportGo: about to go to home depot
Mar 11, 2015 7:39 AM - Mike Kelly: well if you tell me what material you're using i can help
Mar 11, 2015 7:39 AM - TechSupportGo: sorry, pla
Mar 11, 2015 7:40 AM - Mike Kelly: then yes MEK
Mar 11, 2015 7:40 AM - TechSupportGo: what exactly does that stand for again? i lost the link you gave me
Mar 11, 2015 7:41 AM - Mike Kelly: methyl ethyl ketone
Mar 11, 2015 7:41 AM - Mike Kelly: it'll just say MEK Substitute on the bottle
Mar 11, 2015 7:42 AM - TechSupportGo: thank you.. also do work with e3d?
Mar 11, 2015 7:43 AM - Mike Kelly: i've beta tested with them
Mar 11, 2015 7:43 AM - Mike Kelly: but not for money
Mar 11, 2015 7:43 AM - TechSupportGo: is this the one i want?http://www.amazon.com/E3D-All-metal..._indust_7?ie=UTF8&refRID=10Z0E9EN6PQ2PWMM1PPS
Mar 11, 2015 7:44 AM - Mike Kelly: i'd be real concerned buying from amazon/ebay, lots of shitty knock offs out there
Mar 11, 2015 7:44 AM - Mike Kelly: E3D-Online.com is their main site, US suppliers are Filastruder and PrintedSolid
Mar 11, 2015 7:44 AM - Mike Kelly: maybe mor
Mar 11, 2015 7:46 AM - TechSupportGo: not really worried about the price, you got a preferred link?
Mar 11, 2015 7:46 AM - TechSupportGo: for the robo
Mar 11, 2015 7:47 AM - Mike Kelly: printedsolid.com if he has it in stock, otherwise filastruder
Mar 11, 2015 7:47 AM - TechSupportGo: thank you again kind sir!
Mar 11, 2015 7:49 AM - Mike Kelly: notta problem
Mar 11, 2015 7:54 AM - jbigler1986: Back
Mar 11, 2015 7:54 AM - jbigler1986: I suggest Printed Solid. He hooked me up
Mar 11, 2015 7:56 AM - Mike Kelly: agreed, he's a good guy
Mar 11, 2015 7:57 AM - TechSupportGo: i need two right
Mar 11, 2015 7:57 AM - TechSupportGo: omg i just closed the page with baydon explaining the process
Mar 11, 2015 7:58 AM - Mike Kelly: >_<
Mar 11, 2015 7:58 AM - Mike Kelly: why do you want 2
Mar 11, 2015 7:58 AM - TechSupportGo: nevermind I found it, I want to do that post you put http://community.robo3d.com/index.php?threads/how-to-dual-bowden-e3d-on-the-robo-3d.1955/
Mar 11, 2015 7:59 AM - TechSupportGo: is that different?
Mar 11, 2015 7:59 AM - Mike Kelly: don't do that
Mar 11, 2015 7:59 AM - Mike Kelly: save your money and buy a cyclops
Mar 11, 2015 7:59 AM - TechSupportGo: ok
Mar 11, 2015 8:00 AM - Mike Kelly: http://www.filastruder.com/products/chimera-cyclops or legends pack
Mar 11, 2015 8:00 AM - Mike Kelly: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:671881
Mar 11, 2015 8:01 AM - Mike Kelly: or if you really don't want to wait i have a dual v6 design here: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:681916
Mar 11, 2015 8:05 AM - TechSupportGo: i take it the second one will allow me to print faster
Mar 11, 2015 8:06 AM - Mike Kelly: uh? what
Mar 11, 2015 8:09 AM - TechSupportGo: sorry I am tired, do you know if the cyclops comes with all the hardware required to install it and make it work on the robo
Mar 11, 2015 8:10 AM - Mike Kelly: yes it comes with everything, just print the carriage from my thingiverse
Mar 11, 2015 8:12 AM - TechSupportGo: what is feeding the second filament?
Mar 11, 2015 8:12 AM - Mike Kelly: a second extruder
Mar 11, 2015 8:12 AM - Mike Kelly: or cold end as they're often referred
Mar 11, 2015 8:13 AM - TechSupportGo: cool
Mar 11, 2015 8:15 AM - jbigler1986: OK. So I took the bottom cover off and checked all parts. No parts are missing a nut.
Mar 11, 2015 8:15 AM - jbigler1986: Oh well.
Mar 11, 2015 8:16 AM - jbigler1986: About to solder up the threaded thermosistor
Mar 11, 2015 8:17 AM - Mike Kelly: Free nut!
Mar 11, 2015 8:18 AM - jbigler1986: Yep. Maybe it fell in there some how
Mar 11, 2015 8:21 AM - jbigler1986: I will take pics in a few
Mar 11, 2015 8:24 AM - Mike Kelly: Everything that has a bolt uses a nyloc right?
Mar 11, 2015 8:27 AM - Ben R: is this a repeat of yesterday?
Mar 11, 2015 8:30 AM - Mike Kelly: yes
Mar 11, 2015 8:32 AM - Ben R: WOW...
Mar 11, 2015 8:32 AM - jbigler1986: Not of the nut. I'm not talking about that anymore
Mar 11, 2015 8:32 AM - Ben R: I literally thought my browser was freaking out
Mar 11, 2015 8:33 AM - Mike Kelly: lol
Mar 11, 2015 8:47 AM - Mike Kelly: god the way these parts are modeled is soooo bad
Mar 11, 2015 8:54 AM - Ben R: you dissin your own stuff?
Mar 11, 2015 8:57 AM - TechSupportGo: mk, I am here. they only have mek not the substitute. will it work the same?
Mar 11, 2015 8:59 AM - Mike Kelly: yes
Mar 11, 2015 8:59 AM - Mike Kelly: mek is just harder to find
Mar 11, 2015 9:00 AM - TechSupportGo: k ty
Mar 11, 2015 9:03 AM - Ben R: mek is at every ace/ hardware store
Mar 11, 2015 9:03 AM - Ben R: home depot
Mar 11, 2015 9:03 AM - Ben R: napa
Mar 11, 2015 9:03 AM - Ben R: think I've seen it at places like AUTO ZONE
Mar 11, 2015 9:04 AM - Mike Kelly: you probably see substitute
Mar 11, 2015 9:06 AM - jbigler1986: I've seen MEK but not substitute
Mar 11, 2015 9:07 AM - Mike Kelly: and you read the MSDS on it to verify?
Mar 11, 2015 9:07 AM - Mike Kelly: it's hard to tell it seems
Mar 11, 2015 9:07 AM - Mike Kelly: i don't really know what the difference is
Mar 11, 2015 9:08 AM - jbigler1986: No. Just didn't say substitute on the front.
Mar 11, 2015 9:08 AM - Mike Kelly: seems like they still sell both
Mar 11, 2015 9:08 AM - Mike Kelly: i had a hard time finding real MEK but i didn't try home depot
Mar 11, 2015 9:08 AM - Mike Kelly: or autozone
Mar 11, 2015 9:08 AM - Mike Kelly: lowes sold neither
Mar 11, 2015 9:09 AM - Ben R: might be controlled there.
Mar 11, 2015 9:09 AM - Ben R: used to be controlled
Mar 11, 2015 9:09 AM - Mike Kelly: could be
Mar 11, 2015 9:09 AM - Ben R: or.. hazardous.
Mar 11, 2015 9:09 AM - Ben R: it changed status.. but maybe not in hippie land

 

Mar 11, 2015 9:09 AM - jbigler1986: Damn meth heads and their crazy chemicals
Mar 11, 2015 9:10 AM - Ben R: no.. it is a mutagen
Mar 11, 2015 9:10 AM - Ben R: but further study showed it wasn't super mega horrible
Mar 11, 2015 9:10 AM - Ben R: but california and mountain california.. they have their own lists
Mar 11, 2015 9:11 AM - Ben R: it usually sits right next to acetone on the shelf in the solvents aisle
Mar 11, 2015 9:11 AM - Mike Kelly: lol mountain california
Mar 11, 2015 9:11 AM - Mike Kelly: so true
Mar 11, 2015 9:31 AM - JeffTheMess: hi all, anybody know a good bed not heating up forum I could use?
Mar 11, 2015 9:31 AM - Mike Kelly: depends on the symptoms, does it show a temp
Mar 11, 2015 9:32 AM - JeffTheMess: no, doesnt show that either it stays at 0
Mar 11, 2015 9:32 AM - Ben R: plug it in
Mar 11, 2015 9:32 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah the connector probably came unplugged, lift up your bed and see if there's one
Mar 11, 2015 9:32 AM - Ben R: something is disconnected/damaged
Mar 11, 2015 9:33 AM - Ben R: but its more likely unplugged on the other end.
Mar 11, 2015 9:35 AM - JeffTheMess: nothing seems to be disconnected
Mar 11, 2015 9:35 AM - Ben R: you take the bottom off and trace the heater wire?
Mar 11, 2015 9:36 AM - Ben R: if you have a bottom cover
Mar 11, 2015 9:36 AM - JeffTheMess: yeah i followed it all the way to the board
Mar 11, 2015 9:36 AM - Ben R: Is it brand new?
Mar 11, 2015 9:36 AM - Mike Kelly: who's got a recent printer that has the switch on the extruder carriage
Mar 11, 2015 9:36 AM - Bill Monroe: Here's where you can get real MEK : http://www.aircraftspruce.com/pages/cs/mek/polyfibermek.php
Mar 11, 2015 9:36 AM - Mike Kelly: measure the resistance across the thermistor
Mar 11, 2015 9:37 AM - Ben R: or.. you could just buy it at amazon.. I think that's just an amazon storefront anyway
Mar 11, 2015 9:37 AM - Bill Monroe: think again
Mar 11, 2015 9:38 AM - Ben R: its using amazon storefront's "make selection below/review product" code then
Mar 11, 2015 9:38 AM - Bill Monroe: aircraft spruce is a stocking distributor in SOCAL and in georgia.. one of the few that is still permitted to sell real MEK
Mar 11, 2015 9:38 AM - JeffTheMess: doesnt read anything
Mar 11, 2015 9:38 AM - Mike Kelly: then there's a disconnected wire
Mar 11, 2015 9:39 AM - Ben R: you mean in socal
Mar 11, 2015 9:39 AM - Ben R: oh.. you're saying that they changed mek?
Mar 11, 2015 9:39 AM - Ben R: it isn't methel ethel keytone?
Mar 11, 2015 9:40 AM - Bill Monroe: well, there's an mek sustitute that isnt bad.. that's still available some places.. but the real stuff, the original blend
Mar 11, 2015 9:40 AM - Ben R: Butanone
Mar 11, 2015 9:40 AM - Ben R: ?
Mar 11, 2015 9:40 AM - Ben R: I haven't noticed it changing... comes in the same can I've gotten it in for a couple decades
Mar 11, 2015 9:41 AM - Bill Monroe: i cant recall now exactly what it is.. BUT, it's not bad. It's just that the vinyl-based chemicals used in the vast majority of aircraft fabric systems has only been approved by the FAA when used with real, original MEK
Mar 11, 2015 9:41 AM - JeffTheMess: okay so what is the fix because i dont see anything unpluged
Mar 11, 2015 9:42 AM - Ben R: mek is and has always been.. to my knowledge and quick research CH3C(O)CH2CH3
Mar 11, 2015 9:42 AM - Bill Monroe: until they get something else approved, they must be allowed to provide it so folks with the fabric systems that require it can do their thing
Mar 11, 2015 9:42 AM - Ben R: the fix is.. there's something wrong... broken wire
Mar 11, 2015 9:43 AM - Mike Kelly: fine the wire unplugged or the connector. Measure the resistance at points to find the fault
Mar 11, 2015 9:44 AM - Bill Monroe: ive not walked into a home depot in every state, but in the last 6 months I have in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, washington, and california.. none have it
Mar 11, 2015 9:44 AM - Ben R: hmm.. its around.. its on amazon. there are MEK substitutes out.. maybe that's what you mean.
Mar 11, 2015 9:45 AM - Ben R: http://www.amazon.com/Methyl-Ethyl-..._1?ie=UTF8&qid=1426121078&sr=8-1&keywords=mek
Mar 11, 2015 9:45 AM - Bill Monroe: well, it's up to you.. you want the real stuff... there it is..
Mar 11, 2015 9:45 AM - Ben R: ha.. I'm telling you.. MEK means one thing. MEK substitute is another
Mar 11, 2015 9:45 AM - Ben R: they are separate products
Mar 11, 2015 9:45 AM - Ben R: and apparently MEK is not avaiable easily in some states
Mar 11, 2015 9:45 AM - Ben R: it WAS controlled.
Mar 11, 2015 9:46 AM - Ben R: start using something labeled MEK when it isn't and ... well like you said... not a thing.
Mar 11, 2015 9:46 AM - Mike Kelly: explains why i can't get it
Mar 11, 2015 9:46 AM - Bill Monroe: many chem manufacturers stopped making it due to some many states stopping it.. supplies are drying up
Mar 11, 2015 9:47 AM - Ben R: that may be. But it was removed from the list in 2007 i think. It might come back. but with bad press.. state laws and a substitute available (which might be higher profit)
Mar 11, 2015 9:47 AM - Ben R: ...
Mar 11, 2015 9:47 AM - Bill Monroe: but until PolyFiber fabric systems gets something lese approved, aviation suppliers that sell it have to be allowed to sell the real stuff
Mar 11, 2015 9:47 AM - Bill Monroe: lese=else
Mar 11, 2015 9:47 AM - Ben R: or use different processes
Mar 11, 2015 9:48 AM - Ben R: I can't use real lacquer paint either
Mar 11, 2015 9:48 AM - Bill Monroe: to do that would mean stripping thr entire plane and replacing all the fabric, with cotton or linen
Mar 11, 2015 9:48 AM - Bill Monroe: not going to happen
Mar 11, 2015 9:49 AM - Ben R: well.. yea... plane owners are generally more wealthy. Happens to us car guys every year
Mar 11, 2015 9:49 AM - Ben R: I can't use half my old paint equipment legally
Mar 11, 2015 9:49 AM - Ben R: much less the paints that used to go through them.
Mar 11, 2015 9:49 AM - Ben R: and .. it was better
Mar 11, 2015 9:49 AM - Bill Monroe: ya.. you can tell which cars in the lot belong to plane owners.. the rusty dented ones
Mar 11, 2015 9:49 AM - Bill Monroe: the nice cars belong to renters
Mar 11, 2015 9:50 AM - Ben R: Bought a motorcycle from a guy who used to fly from Hawaii to oahu... I don't think he ever used the kickstand
Mar 11, 2015 9:53 AM - Ben R: I see... apparently some MEK is adulterated with acetone. That might make some people very brand loyal
Mar 11, 2015 9:55 AM - Bill Monroe: it's probably good solvent.. us plane guys just cant use it
Mar 11, 2015 9:56 AM - Ben R: theres an faa approval process.
Mar 11, 2015 9:56 AM - Ben R: apparently
Mar 11, 2015 9:56 AM - Bill Monroe: yes, there is... and it's slow and expensive
Mar 11, 2015 9:56 AM - Ben R: and not likely lucrative
Mar 11, 2015 9:57 AM - Bill Monroe: time will tell
Mar 11, 2015 9:57 AM - Ben R: making you stuck with mek when other newer solvents might be better.
Mar 11, 2015 9:57 AM - Bill Monroe: poly fiber bought-out their only competitor.. same fabric, different chemistry for the selants..
Mar 11, 2015 9:57 AM - Ben R: believe me... I'm mired in legacy gov't stuff right now
Mar 11, 2015 9:58 AM - Ben R: "the process has started, should be up to date in 2020". By which time it will be 20 years out of date.
Mar 11, 2015 9:58 AM - Ben R: you know
Mar 11, 2015 9:58 AM - Bill Monroe: fabric coverings on plane are coming back.. many new planes are using it so, they might go through the process
Mar 11, 2015 9:59 AM - Bill Monroe: anyway.. if you want to be sure you're getting real MEK.. there's the link
Mar 11, 2015 9:59 AM - Ben R: All the rich people now-a-days wanting to show off.. my local afld doesn't have a new plane in it. 1930s-60s I'd wager.
Mar 11, 2015 10:00 AM - Ben R: well.... your link is for "aerospace use only"
Mar 11, 2015 10:00 AM - Bill Monroe: negative
Mar 11, 2015 10:00 AM - Ben R: what the can says
Mar 11, 2015 10:00 AM - Ben R: and yea, looks like they just stole the amazon (maybe bought a package?) menus
Mar 11, 2015 10:01 AM - Ben R: even uses amazon's little trademarked truck
Mar 11, 2015 10:01 AM - Bill Monroe: the software their websites uses is irrelvant
Mar 11, 2015 10:01 AM - Ben R: I thought it was an amazon seller... but its a copu
Mar 11, 2015 10:01 AM - Ben R: y
Mar 11, 2015 10:02 AM - Bill Monroe: ebay and gunbroker use the same software too.. but they're not the same company
Mar 11, 2015 10:02 AM - Ben R: anyhow.. so .. you ever polish an aluminum aircraft? Do people coat them in clear?
Mar 11, 2015 10:02 AM - Ben R: netflix isn't amazon, but they rent from them...
Mar 11, 2015 10:02 AM - Bill Monroe: yes I have and if you coat it, it dulls
Mar 11, 2015 10:02 AM - Bill Monroe: polishing a plane is a committment
Mar 11, 2015 10:03 AM - Ben R: I've had aluminum cars (have one now) people take them down and polish. It never lasts.. not worth it
Mar 11, 2015 10:03 AM - Ben R: lots of the planes (sitting right off the bay mind you) near my house are polished aluminum
Mar 11, 2015 10:03 AM - Ben R: I'm sure they were likely painted or available painted at one point
Mar 11, 2015 10:03 AM - Bill Monroe: more power to them, I'd rather fly it
Mar 11, 2015 10:03 AM - Ben R: right?

 

Mar 11, 2015 10:03 AM - Bill Monroe: dunno.. do you know what models they are?
Mar 11, 2015 10:04 AM - Ben R: A guy with an AC cobra drives around with it polished in aluminium. Looks like crap.
Mar 11, 2015 10:04 AM - Ben R: no.. not the particular polished ones.
Mar 11, 2015 10:04 AM - Ben R: old pipers
Mar 11, 2015 10:04 AM - Bill Monroe: seriously, removing paint on a riveted aluminum plane would make Job scream
Mar 11, 2015 10:04 AM - Ben R: no idea the model
Mar 11, 2015 10:04 AM - Bill Monroe: old pipers were fabric covered
Mar 11, 2015 10:04 AM - Ben R: There's also a crap ton of radial engines
Mar 11, 2015 10:05 AM - Bill Monroe: radials are awesome
Mar 11, 2015 10:05 AM - Ben R: well.. maybe not THAT old. they're piper shaped
Mar 11, 2015 10:05 AM - Ben R: tripod.. aluminum 2 and 4 seat acft
Mar 11, 2015 10:06 AM - Ben R: wait.. there are a few ultra modern likely composite acft there.. but its quite a mix
Mar 11, 2015 10:06 AM - Bill Monroe: check this out for radial engined porn.. me two weeks ago..
Mar 11, 2015 10:07 AM - Ben R: closest airport to the big sailboat areas. hire someone to sail your boat across the atlantic.. fly there and live on it. hire someone else to sail it to the Caribbean, fly there and live on it
Mar 11, 2015 10:07 AM - Ben R: I always liked/marveled at the trimotor.
Mar 11, 2015 10:08 AM - Ben R: so.. fomoco made that.. or was it a self named acquisition
Mar 11, 2015 10:08 AM - Ben R: or a different ford altogether
Mar 11, 2015 10:09 AM - Bill Monroe: stout aircraft made it for Ford
Mar 11, 2015 10:09 AM - Ben R: ah
Mar 11, 2015 10:09 AM - Ben R: friend of mine is dead set on one of these
Mar 11, 2015 10:09 AM - Ben R: http://www.surclaro.com/modules/Media_Gallery/gallery/Screenshots/real_aviation/IMG_4104good2go.JPG
Mar 11, 2015 10:10 AM - Bill Monroe: henry ford saw all the planes flying airmail, thought it would good biz to fly people
Mar 11, 2015 10:10 AM - Bill Monroe: nanchange.. there's a dozen of them here.. two are due back any second
Mar 11, 2015 10:11 AM - Ben R: there's tons. strange thing is the difference in price a couple years/hours makes in them
Mar 11, 2015 10:11 AM - Ben R: the price
Mar 11, 2015 10:11 AM - Bill Monroe: Nanchang. no e
Mar 11, 2015 10:11 AM - Ben R: not anything else
Mar 11, 2015 10:11 AM - Bill Monroe: good performers.. engines and props can be hard to get spares
Mar 11, 2015 10:12 AM - Ben R: prolly less so recently
Mar 11, 2015 10:12 AM - Ben R: almost all china's pilots start in them
Mar 11, 2015 10:12 AM - Ben R: if not all
Mar 11, 2015 10:12 AM - Bill Monroe: funny thing about them too, you rarely see one flying by itself.. the people that own them fly like women.. can't even go to the restroom alone
Mar 11, 2015 10:12 AM - Ben R: they might start off heavies in an2s.. but probably those
Mar 11, 2015 10:13 AM - Ben R: now an AN2.. that would be fun.
Mar 11, 2015 10:13 AM - Bill Monroe: very 1000hp and huge prop.. but so slow..
Mar 11, 2015 10:13 AM - Ben R: tie a string to the bottom and pretend its a kite
Mar 11, 2015 10:14 AM - Ben R: i remember back in the day. The soviets took the wings off a bunch of them and put pensioners in them like a trailer park
Mar 11, 2015 10:14 AM - Ben R: coal stove, and a couple cables to keep it from rolling over
Mar 11, 2015 10:14 AM - Bill Monroe: they still make them new
Mar 11, 2015 10:15 AM - Ben R: well. really? I know china still uses them.
Mar 11, 2015 10:16 AM - Ben R: wiki says 2002.. but doesn't mean the an3 isn't out there.. still long run
Mar 11, 2015 10:16 AM - Ben R: 47-2002
Mar 11, 2015 10:16 AM - Ben R: an3 IS still out there
Mar 11, 2015 10:26 AM - Bill Monroe: sorry ran out to the runway, thought the nans were back but it was a Yak taking off
Mar 11, 2015 10:27 AM - Bill Monroe: same engine/prop so they'll fool ya
Mar 11, 2015 10:33 AM - TechSupportGo: my model tured all white
Mar 11, 2015 10:35 AM - jbigler1986: What color was it before
Mar 11, 2015 10:36 AM - TechSupportGo: black
Mar 11, 2015 10:36 AM - TechSupportGo: still doesnt look smooth
Mar 11, 2015 10:36 AM - jbigler1986: Yeah that happened to me with a red coaster. ABS
Mar 11, 2015 10:37 AM - TechSupportGo: i left it in there until it looked like glass then when i pulled it out it turned white
Mar 11, 2015 10:37 AM - jbigler1986: Not sure what causes t
Mar 11, 2015 10:37 AM - TechSupportGo: i think i vaporized my fingers they are swollen... I even had gloves on
Mar 11, 2015 10:38 AM - jbigler1986: To much solvent maybe. I really don't know as I didn't look into it
Mar 11, 2015 10:38 AM - jbigler1986: Did you do it cold or hot?
Mar 11, 2015 10:38 AM - jbigler1986: I did mine cold
Mar 11, 2015 10:39 AM - TechSupportGo: hot plate with mek, i wish it would have stayed glassy looking
Mar 11, 2015 10:39 AM - jbigler1986: Do cold. A lot safer with the same effect
Mar 11, 2015 10:40 AM - TechSupportGo: how do i make cold vapor with mek?
Mar 11, 2015 10:40 AM - TechSupportGo: PLA
Mar 11, 2015 10:40 AM - jbigler1986: Google it. Probably the same steps as cold acetone vapor
Mar 11, 2015 10:43 AM - Mike Kelly: here ya go gents:
Mar 11, 2015 10:43 AM - Mike Kelly: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:720018
Mar 11, 2015 10:44 AM - Mike Glass: where are the shrouds?
Mar 11, 2015 10:44 AM - Mike Kelly: go shroud yourself
Mar 11, 2015 10:44 AM - jbigler1986: I just got some paper towels. Put some acetone on the paper towels. Then I line the bottom and sides of a glass vase with the paper towels. Then I put a little metal stand on the bottom and put the part on top of the stand. Then covered the top. Left it in there for about 2 hours
Mar 11, 2015 10:47 AM - jbigler1986: It got it nice and shiny. Just turned it white. Didn't care to see why it caused that.
Mar 11, 2015 10:47 AM - jbigler1986: That looks good mike
Mar 11, 2015 10:47 AM - TechSupportGo: is it still white?
Mar 11, 2015 10:48 AM - jbigler1986: Yeah
Mar 11, 2015 10:48 AM - jbigler1986: Hey Mike. Could that me modified to work with e3d?
Mar 11, 2015 10:48 AM - Mike Kelly: hmm
Mar 11, 2015 10:48 AM - Mike Kelly: probably
Mar 11, 2015 10:48 AM - Mike Kelly: that's more work though
Mar 11, 2015 10:49 AM - jbigler1986: Yes. It would look good though
Mar 11, 2015 10:51 AM - jbigler1986: Why is the e3d fan mounted directly to the heatsink but the hexagon isn't?
Mar 11, 2015 10:52 AM - jbigler1986: I'm going to play around with solidsworks in a little bit
Mar 11, 2015 10:53 AM - TechSupportGo: i dont know how to even model 2 materials lol I guess i should have done a little more research
Mar 11, 2015 11:02 AM - Mike Glass: what up turds
Mar 11, 2015 11:02 AM - jbigler1986: What's going on
Mar 11, 2015 11:02 AM - Mike Glass: just knockin shit out
Mar 11, 2015 11:03 AM - Mike Glass: brb gotta put kiddo's to bed
Mar 11, 2015 11:04 AM - Mike Kelly: because the hexagon is cheap and doesn't sell one
Mar 11, 2015 11:07 AM - jbigler1986: Didn't know if there a mechanical reason
Mar 11, 2015 11:07 AM - Mike Kelly: na just cost
Mar 11, 2015 11:10 AM - jbigler1986: Makes sense
Mar 11, 2015 11:17 AM - TechSupportGo: which head will allow me to print really fast but retain my resolution
Mar 11, 2015 11:20 AM - Mike Kelly: i think you're looking at this the wrong way
Mar 11, 2015 11:27 AM - jbigler1986: Solidworks take a while to install. Time to grab a beer
Mar 11, 2015 11:32 AM - jbigler1986: Anybody printing anything good
Mar 11, 2015 11:38 AM - Mike Glass: Hey Mike when can you shoot me over the mount?
Mar 11, 2015 11:39 AM - Mike Glass: man the screw hole was a turd.
Mar 11, 2015 11:39 AM - jbigler1986: ?
Mar 11, 2015 11:40 AM - Mike Kelly: mount?
Mar 11, 2015 11:40 AM - Mike Kelly: what did i promise?
Mar 11, 2015 11:40 AM - Mike Glass: you might of been drinking..lol
Mar 11, 2015 11:41 AM - Mike Kelly: if this was anytime before yesterday than most likely
Mar 11, 2015 11:41 AM - Mike Glass: the robo side mount piece. I was wanting to use it for a tool holder.
Mar 11, 2015 11:41 AM - Mike Kelly: OH yeah that
Mar 11, 2015 11:43 AM - Mike Glass: I hate having all these tools scattered around, and need a place for the nozzles also.

Mar 11, 2015 11:44 AM - Mike Kelly: der ya go
Mar 11, 2015 11:46 AM - Mike Glass: Thank ya sir
Mar 11, 2015 11:47 AM - Mike Glass: you could of just skyped it..lol
Mar 11, 2015 11:47 AM - Mike Kelly: oh right forgot about that
Mar 11, 2015 11:50 AM - TechSupportGo: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:27388
Mar 11, 2015 11:52 AM - Mike Kelly: neat
Mar 11, 2015 11:58 AM - Mike Glass: ok back to a .4 nozzle boooo
Mar 11, 2015 12:00 PM - Mike Kelly: why?
Mar 11, 2015 12:00 PM - Mike Glass: printing the camera bracket, to small for the .8
Mar 11, 2015 12:01 PM - Mike Kelly: ah
Mar 11, 2015 12:08 PM - Mike Kelly: woops i made a mistake on the model
Mar 11, 2015 12:09 PM - Mike Kelly: not a big deal but eh
Mar 11, 2015 12:11 PM - Mike Glass: now what
Mar 11, 2015 12:18 PM - Mike Kelly: not the one i sent you but the dual fan
Mar 11, 2015 12:18 PM - Mike Kelly: there was a bad part of their model and i didn't fix it
Mar 11, 2015 12:22 PM - jbigler1986: should i install just solidworks or some of the other stuff with it?
Mar 11, 2015 12:23 PM - Mike Glass: ugg printing at .2 is so slowwww..lol
Mar 11, 2015 12:24 PM - Mike Kelly: hahaha
Mar 11, 2015 12:24 PM - Mike Kelly: just solidworks is probably all you'll want
Mar 11, 2015 12:24 PM - jbigler1986: ok
Mar 11, 2015 12:25 PM - Mike Glass: I have a .5 wonder if I made it 1.0 my system would keep up?
Mar 11, 2015 12:26 PM - Mike Glass: Does a Volcano provide more heat?
Mar 11, 2015 12:27 PM - jbigler1986: As in?
Mar 11, 2015 12:28 PM - Mike Kelly: in essence yes
Mar 11, 2015 12:28 PM - Mike Kelly: same temperature, more thermal mass
Mar 11, 2015 12:28 PM - Mike Glass: bigger heater then?
Mar 11, 2015 12:28 PM - Mike Kelly: so it takes more energy to heat up and maintain that temp
Mar 11, 2015 12:28 PM - Mike Kelly: nope still just a 40w
Mar 11, 2015 12:28 PM - Mike Kelly: but you'll be using more of that power to keep it stable
Mar 11, 2015 12:28 PM - Mike Glass: physical bigger?
Mar 11, 2015 12:28 PM - Mike Kelly: right
Mar 11, 2015 12:29 PM - Mike Glass: ok, hmm Im curious to see how far I can go.
Mar 11, 2015 12:29 PM - jbigler1986: I'm seen some setup where it doesn't look like they have an extruder right by the hotend. Where are they pushing the filament from?
Mar 11, 2015 12:29 PM - Mike Kelly: the heater is mounted parallel to the filament channel instead of perpendicular
Mar 11, 2015 12:29 PM - Mike Kelly: bowden
Mar 11, 2015 12:30 PM - jbigler1986: does it just move the extruder basically?
Mar 11, 2015 12:31 PM - Mike Glass: JB printing a threaded mount now, see if the threads actually work..
Mar 11, 2015 12:31 PM - jbigler1986: Yay
Mar 11, 2015 12:31 PM - Mike Glass: no swivel yet still working on that.
Mar 11, 2015 12:32 PM - jbigler1986: i still have the threaded bolt from that one i printed. Not sure where I put the actual mount since I didn't think it would work. Silly me
Mar 11, 2015 12:33 PM - Mike Glass: mine is just a regular hex head nothin fancy,
Mar 11, 2015 12:34 PM - Mike Glass: think it will look good with the curves of the robo
Mar 11, 2015 12:40 PM - jbigler1986: video?
Mar 11, 2015 12:41 PM - Mike Glass: http://vaughnlive.tv/coolreactions
Mar 11, 2015 12:44 PM - jbigler1986: can i load stl files and edit them in solidworks
Mar 11, 2015 12:44 PM - Mike Glass: kinda
Mar 11, 2015 12:45 PM - Mike Glass: if it will let you import them, sometimes it tells you there are too may facets or polygons to import.
Mar 11, 2015 12:45 PM - jbigler1986: whats a good software for that? Seems like solidworks is good for creating from scratch will I will need to spend time on
Mar 11, 2015 12:47 PM - Mike Glass: yea its nice to just create, save to stl, print.
Mar 11, 2015 12:48 PM - Mike Glass: ugg my threaded rods are rattling.
Mar 11, 2015 12:48 PM - jbigler1986: what about editing a stl
Mar 11, 2015 12:49 PM - jbigler1986: i think i need to add some tape to my hobbed bolt. There is a little bit of play on the large gear
Mar 11, 2015 12:49 PM - Mike Glass: They really arent meant for editing, I think
Mar 11, 2015 12:50 PM - jbigler1986: I'm just trying to add some inset text
Mar 11, 2015 12:50 PM - jbigler1986: so not really editing the model itself really
Mar 11, 2015 12:52 PM - TechSupportGo: MG
Mar 11, 2015 12:53 PM - Mike Glass: im at 205 temp with abs right now
Mar 11, 2015 12:53 PM - Mike Glass: Hey tsg
Mar 11, 2015 12:53 PM - TechSupportGo: remember you said too fast yesterday, well today I am about to go faster lol
Mar 11, 2015 12:53 PM - Mike Glass: not sure the bolt going to survive, need fan on it
Mar 11, 2015 12:54 PM - Mike Glass: your cra cra
Mar 11, 2015 12:54 PM - TechSupportGo: haha going live if you want to witness the startup i been having problems with my first layer.. fingers crossed http://www.ustream.tv/channel/robo-3d-r1-live-techsupportgo
Mar 11, 2015 12:56 PM - TechSupportGo: here we go?!?!?!?!
Mar 11, 2015 12:57 PM - Mike Glass: you need a second fan.
Mar 11, 2015 12:58 PM - jbigler1986: Slow it down too
Mar 11, 2015 12:59 PM - Mike Glass: for the love of pete
Mar 11, 2015 1:00 PM - TechSupportGo: i put it on 75 woooohooooo
Mar 11, 2015 1:00 PM - jbigler1986: way to fast
Mar 11, 2015 1:00 PM - jbigler1986: i would do like 40 or 50
Mar 11, 2015 1:00 PM - TechSupportGo: first layer looks like its sticking !! YES
Mar 11, 2015 1:01 PM - jbigler1986: I run .1 and .2 at 30
Mar 11, 2015 1:01 PM - jbigler1986: .3 i run at 50
Mar 11, 2015 1:02 PM - jbigler1986: Mike. What happened
Mar 11, 2015 1:02 PM - TechSupportGo: had to seat the camera, that printed onboard mount is beast
Mar 11, 2015 1:03 PM - Mike Glass: your outer edges on your print will show imperfections at those speeds
Mar 11, 2015 1:03 PM - Mike Glass: just waiting for them to pop off
Mar 11, 2015 1:04 PM - TechSupportGo: tomorrow I am going to do 100!!!! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
Mar 11, 2015 1:04 PM - jbigler1986: Which you need with gears. I printed gear heart and gear cube. Low and slow. Takes longer but they worked perfect with about 2 minutes of cleanup total
Mar 11, 2015 1:04 PM - jbigler1986: Woah there mike. What happened to those threads
Mar 11, 2015 1:05 PM - Mike Glass: just support
Mar 11, 2015 1:05 PM - jbigler1986: Was wondering that
Mar 11, 2015 1:06 PM - Mike Glass: I dont know why it put it in the screw hole..
Mar 11, 2015 1:06 PM - TechSupportGo: I lubed every friction point with creflon its running so smooth I can barely hear it. I also put a cotton ball in the dust collector and added canola so its lubing the line
Mar 11, 2015 1:06 PM - jbigler1986: The one I printed didnt have any on it
Mar 11, 2015 1:07 PM - jbigler1986: It was smooth right off of the print
Mar 11, 2015 1:07 PM - jbigler1986: Does it work? Because that's all that matters
Mar 11, 2015 1:08 PM - Mike Glass: yea screwed in
Mar 11, 2015 1:09 PM - jbigler1986: More snug than the original?
Mar 11, 2015 1:09 PM - TechSupportGo: i feel like your camera is better than mine
Mar 11, 2015 1:09 PM - Mike Glass: No way I like the ones you have.
Mar 11, 2015 1:10 PM - Mike Glass: well when you tighten it it moves the layer away from the robo, so not sure if it is better
Mar 11, 2015 1:10 PM - TechSupportGo: is yours auto focus?
Mar 11, 2015 1:10 PM - Mike Glass: no I took it apart to manually focus it better.
Mar 11, 2015 1:11 PM - jbigler1986: I need to install white leds this weekend. Got my threaded thermistor soldered up and ready to go
Mar 11, 2015 1:11 PM - TechSupportGo: mine is probably just bouncing around because its going 75 miles per hour !! LOL
Mar 11, 2015 1:11 PM - jbigler1986: It was to short to connect directly
Mar 11, 2015 1:11 PM - jbigler1986: How is the mount Mike?
Mar 11, 2015 1:12 PM - TechSupportGo: Oh i just taped a 20$ strip from amazon CHECK THIS OUT
Mar 11, 2015 1:12 PM - TechSupportGo: weeee

 

Mar 11, 2015 1:12 PM - Mike Glass: need to make some changes, I just cracked the bottom. need to make it thicker where it gonna mount the the swivel..
Mar 11, 2015 1:13 PM - Mike Glass: stop the insanity lights..lol
Mar 11, 2015 1:13 PM - jbigler1986: I might get some from frys and just have their own power supply. Don't want to take to much power from the robo
Mar 11, 2015 1:14 PM - Mike Glass: well at least my screw worked, made it from scratch so thats a good thing. thats all I wanted to test at this point
Mar 11, 2015 1:14 PM - jbigler1986: That is a good thing
Mar 11, 2015 1:14 PM - jbigler1986: Good work
Mar 11, 2015 1:14 PM - TechSupportGo: yeah I taped the power supply to the outside its super lite
Mar 11, 2015 1:15 PM - TechSupportGo: with blue tape
Mar 11, 2015 1:15 PM - Mike Glass: THanks to Youtube video's
Mar 11, 2015 1:15 PM - jbigler1986: Where is my damn E3D
Mar 11, 2015 1:15 PM - TechSupportGo: solidworks?
Mar 11, 2015 1:16 PM - Mike Glass: yup
Mar 11, 2015 1:16 PM - jbigler1986: I just installed it. Looks confusing. I have my work cut out for me
Mar 11, 2015 1:17 PM - jbigler1986: I guess I should start out with simple shapes such as cubes and circles to learn the basics
Mar 11, 2015 1:17 PM - TechSupportGo: i got back into it also, I designed and printed something that got two investors!! big$$$
Mar 11, 2015 1:18 PM - jbigler1986: I'm going to bed. Have to get up early for a few meetings. Blah
Mar 11, 2015 1:18 PM - TechSupportGo: goodnigh bro
Mar 11, 2015 1:18 PM - TechSupportGo: night
Mar 11, 2015 1:19 PM - Mike Glass: yeah yeah night
Mar 11, 2015 1:19 PM - jbigler1986: Hey mike message me the mount por favor
Mar 11, 2015 1:19 PM - TechSupportGo: my print is almost done lol
Mar 11, 2015 1:19 PM - Mike Glass: ok
Mar 11, 2015 1:19 PM - TechSupportGo: didlo generator
Mar 11, 2015 1:19 PM - jbigler1986: see ya guys tomorrow
Mar 11, 2015 1:20 PM - TechSupportGo: hahaha I just lol ed for real
Mar 11, 2015 1:20 PM - Mike Glass: what is it
Mar 11, 2015 1:21 PM - Mike Glass: what are all those little blobs
Mar 11, 2015 1:21 PM - Mike Glass: supports?
Mar 11, 2015 1:21 PM - TechSupportGo: yeah
Mar 11, 2015 1:21 PM - TechSupportGo: my robo is on crack!!! lol
Mar 11, 2015 1:22 PM - TechSupportGo: thats how S3D works. their algorithm is amazing. when I cleaned that skull this morning I couldnt even tell where it was supported
Mar 11, 2015 1:23 PM - Mike Glass: Its on my list, when taxes get done.
Mar 11, 2015 1:29 PM - TechSupportGo: MG
Mar 11, 2015 1:33 PM - TechSupportGo: can you hear audio from my live feed?
Mar 11, 2015 1:36 PM - Mike Glass: there wasnt earlier
Mar 11, 2015 1:36 PM - TechSupportGo: I think the slicer in S3d is allowing me to print faster without imperfections
Mar 11, 2015 1:37 PM - TechSupportGo: I understand its a mechanical thing but it just seems way better at doing everything
Mar 11, 2015 1:39 PM - TechSupportGo: I wonder why robo would code in 100 if the speed limit is 50??
Mar 11, 2015 1:40 PM - TechSupportGo: well I gues they didnt really code that, its all just relative to the software you are using
Mar 11, 2015 1:40 PM - Mike Glass: with bowden yea, but with that heavy nema on it, could cause some issues
Mar 11, 2015 1:41 PM - TechSupportGo: by the way, to match the speed increments in MC on S3d you multiply by 60. not sure if you caught that last night
Mar 11, 2015 1:42 PM - TechSupportGo: looks like I actually have it set to 3800
Mar 11, 2015 1:44 PM - TechSupportGo: so its only going 63.3 mph I guess thats not too bad
Mar 11, 2015 1:44 PM - TechSupportGo: and I am printing at 3 layer height
Mar 11, 2015 1:48 PM - Mike Glass: lol
Mar 11, 2015 1:49 PM - Mike Glass: I like .25 or 3 mainly anymore, but with the .8 its usually .4 or .6
Mar 11, 2015 1:51 PM - TechSupportGo: I swaped camera views what do you think
Mar 11, 2015 1:52 PM - Mike Glass: looks good
Mar 11, 2015 1:53 PM - Mike Glass: Ok big day, tomorrow, gotta get some sleep see ya l8tr, thanks again
Mar 11, 2015 2:06 PM - TechSupportGo: later

 

Mar 11, 2015 at 9:01 PM - jbigler1986: Good morning
Mar 11, 2015 at 10:00 PM - Mike Glass: Mornin
Mar 11, 2015 at 10:04 PM - jbigler1986: I took a video of the cable catching on the zip tie. On the top of the case.
Mar 11, 2015 at 10:05 PM - jbigler1986: Gotta print cable chain
Mar 11, 2015 at 10:15 PM - jbigler1986:
Mar 11, 2015 at 10:23 PM - Mike Glass: Headed to work now.
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:19 PM - Mike Kelly: mornin
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:20 PM - jbigler1986: Morning. Posted a video of my cable
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:21 PM - Mike Kelly: ok gotcha
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:21 PM - Mike Kelly: here do this
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:21 PM - Mike Kelly: move your carriage to the home Z and X position
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:21 PM - Mike Kelly: then pull enough cable slack out
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:22 PM - Mike Kelly: so that it's semi loose but not too loose
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:22 PM - Mike Kelly: then tighten the one zip tie secured around the wrap
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:22 PM - Mike Kelly: so that it's secure
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:22 PM - jbigler1986: Ok. Makes sense. See how bad it is though
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:22 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah that's to be expected with a setup like that
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:23 PM - Mike Kelly: i wonder if they're all like that
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:23 PM - jbigler1986: Good chance.
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:24 PM - jbigler1986: It's takes a good little tug to get it unstuck. Couldn't be good during a print
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:24 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah it's better to have a consistent resistance
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:25 PM - jbigler1986: So that would throw the x axis off during prints right?
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:26 PM - Mike Kelly: i mean i kinda doubt it unless it torque stalled
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:26 PM - Mike Kelly: or skipped a belt
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:27 PM - jbigler1986: Not sure how much force it would take to throw it off
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:27 PM - jbigler1986: At least quality wise
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:28 PM - Mike Kelly: enough to make the motor skip
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:30 PM - jbigler1986: It's loud during a print. Kind of annoying. I will fix it tonight
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:32 PM - jbigler1986: I need to get some shrink tubing
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:33 PM - jbigler1986: Had to use electrical tape on the thermistor. Doesn't look the greatest.
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:34 PM - Mike Kelly: that won't last
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:34 PM - jbigler1986: Nope
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:35 PM - Mike Kelly: original connector looked male in the picture i had
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:35 PM - jbigler1986: Yeah the connected up by the extruder is male. Just the thermistor wires weren't very long
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:37 PM - Mike Kelly: ah yes
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:38 PM - jbigler1986: Should I have went bowden instead of direct?
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:38 PM - Mike Kelly: nope
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:38 PM - Mike Kelly: it's the same extruder minus a few bits
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:38 PM - Mike Kelly: if you ever want to go bowden later it's easy
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:39 PM - Mike Kelly: when you take off the hex fan shroud you should do the drilling i suggest
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:40 PM - jbigler1986: For bowden?
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:40 PM - Mike Kelly: nope for direct
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:40 PM - Mike Kelly: http://community.robo3d.com/index.p...ormation-installation-guides-and-review.3407/
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:40 PM - jbigler1986: Hex fan shroud is already removed
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:41 PM - jbigler1986: I thought the PTFE tube was for bowden?
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:41 PM - Mike Kelly: http://i.imgur.com/wAw21p0.jpg more specificly
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:41 PM - Mike Kelly: nope the PTFE is for all configurations
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:41 PM - Mike Kelly: http://i.imgur.com/Quy7fxo.jpg?1
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:42 PM - jbigler1986: Is that included?
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:43 PM - Mike Kelly: yes
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:43 PM - jbigler1986: yes it is
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:43 PM - Mike Kelly: you get like 8" of ptfe tubing
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:43 PM - Mike Kelly: instead of like 1m
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:45 PM - jbigler1986: So just get a #20 drill bit and drill out the filament hole
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:46 PM - jbigler1986: Then insert the tube in the hotend then up through the extruder and cut it right before the hobbed bolt?
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:47 PM - Mike Kelly: correct. I also think the 7mm drill x3mm is really important so you're not pressing on the PTC fitting
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:48 PM - jbigler1986: I am looking at that but a little confused
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:48 PM - Mike Kelly: http://i.imgur.com/JnNNef1.jpg if you look closely at this you can kinda see why
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:49 PM - Mike Kelly: if you don't have the top of the groove set against the top of the seat the screws will have a hard time getting into the groove mount
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:49 PM - Mike Kelly: you want the PTC part inset
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:49 PM - Mike Kelly: 8mm is probably a better choice looking at that picture
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:51 PM - jbigler1986: I'm still confused about the exact location. CPossible to point it out on a picture of the actual extruder
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:53 PM - Mike Kelly: http://e3d-online.com/image/cache/data/v6/C_v6-1.75-U-3-1000x1000.jpg you see the black bit at the very top of the heatsink?
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:53 PM - jbigler1986: Yes
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:53 PM - Mike Kelly: if you don't drill out a portion to make room for that thing it'll be harder to fit
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:54 PM - Mike Glass: use a big hammer
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:54 PM - Mike Kelly: what are you, jeremy clarkson?
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:55 PM - jbigler1986: Gotcha. Then it will pinch that against the ptfe tube?
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:55 PM - Mike Kelly: uh basically yeah
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:55 PM - Mike Glass: never been on Top Gear
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:55 PM - jbigler1986: Is it a pain to get to
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:56 PM - jbigler1986: Or when you move the jhead back it gives you access?
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:57 PM - Mike Kelly: what do you mean
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:58 PM - jbigler1986: Drilling the seat
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:59 PM - Mike Kelly: i'd just take off the greg's wade extruder with those 2 screws from before and you can pull it out
Mar 11, 2015 at 11:59 PM - Mike Kelly: then just remove the two screws holding the tensioner and drill baby drill
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:00 AM - jbigler1986: Lol. I should've done that last night. Oh well
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:00 AM - jbigler1986: Looks like it will be a late night tonight
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:00 AM - jbigler1986: You said 8mm bit
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:01 AM - Mike Kelly: or 5/16"
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:01 AM - Mike Kelly: just >7mm really
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:02 AM - jbigler1986: I need to get some need drill bits anyways
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:03 AM - Mike Kelly: i bought a kit from harbor freight, best investment
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:03 AM - jbigler1986: new*
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:03 AM - Mike Kelly: i think it was like $50
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:04 AM - jbigler1986: what size is a number 20 bit. 5/32?
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:05 AM - jbigler1986: or 11/64
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:05 AM - Mike Kelly: uhhh
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:05 AM - Mike Kelly: it's not a fractional
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:06 AM - jbigler1986: Trying to find a #20 at lowes
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:07 AM - Mike Kelly: got a harbor freight nearby?
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:07 AM - Mike Kelly: http://www.harborfreight.com/115-pi...d-m2-high-speed-steel-drill-bit-set-1611.html totally worth it IMO
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:07 AM - Mike Kelly: though i post process a lot of my prints
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:08 AM - jbigler1986: I need it tonight though. I don't use drill bits very often
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:08 AM - Mike Kelly: you can go bigger than #20, whatever the nearest fractional is
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:09 AM - Mike Kelly: i didn't use drill bits much until i had them available
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:09 AM - Mike Kelly: now it seems like I use them all the time
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:09 AM - jbigler1986: http://espee.railfan.net/drill-bit-equivalent-sizes.html
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:09 AM - Mike Kelly: looks like 5/32" is the next step up
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:09 AM - jbigler1986: 11/64?

 

Mar 12, 2015 at 12:09 AM - jbigler1986: k
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:09 AM - Mike Kelly: wait went the wrong way
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:09 AM - Mike Kelly: yes 11/64"
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:09 AM - Mike Kelly: who does things in descending size?!
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:10 AM - jbigler1986: people that want to make it confusing
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:11 AM - jbigler1986: so 11/64 and 5/16 and i will be good
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:11 AM - Mike Glass: thats a nice set Mike, might have to pick that up.
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:11 AM - Mike Kelly: i haven't broke one yet but i dont use them on anything harder than aluminum
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:12 AM - Mike Kelly: mostly abs
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:12 AM - Mike Glass: Might get the colbalt ones
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:13 AM - Mike Glass: would be great for steel
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:13 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah the cobalt set looks mighty nice if you're working with steel
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:14 AM - Mike Glass: or carbon fiber filament..lol
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:14 AM - Mike Kelly: i'd probably pick up a new set if i started doing more steel machining
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:14 AM - Mike Kelly: lol i'm sure titanium is fine for CF
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:14 AM - Mike Glass: I go through bits fast, but also learned to use oil when drilling helps
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:14 AM - Mike Kelly: ohh yes
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:15 AM - jbigler1986: Just get diamond bits
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:15 AM - Mike Kelly: bigler did you decide if you were going to MWRRF?
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:15 AM - jbigler1986: They are cheap enough
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:15 AM - jbigler1986: JK
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:15 AM - Mike Kelly: carbides better for steel
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:15 AM - Mike Kelly: diamond you only really need for glass
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:16 AM - Mike Glass: what do you want Mike?
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:16 AM - jbigler1986: I have not decided yet. Gotta do something for my father in law saturday for a little bit then sunday we are having a bday party for my son
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:17 AM - Mike Kelly: i'm just curious, i really want to go
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:17 AM - Mike Kelly: eric lien's bringing his herculien
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:17 AM - jbigler1986: So not sure if I would have time. The wife said she would be ok with me going
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:17 AM - Mike Glass: yea I saw that Mike, he wants to have beers
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:17 AM - Mike Kelly: you should go man, it would be a killer time
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:18 AM - jbigler1986: How much does it cost to build that?
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:19 AM - Mike Kelly: you could probably get out below 800
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:19 AM - jbigler1986: What is the build volume? Looks huge
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:19 AM - Mike Kelly: it's between 12 and 18 in all dimensions iirc
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:20 AM - Mike Glass: have you seen the Bondtech
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:20 AM - Mike Kelly: yup
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:20 AM - Mike Kelly: i really like that
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:20 AM - Mike Kelly: just too impatient
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:21 AM - Mike Glass: If I build one that is the shit
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:21 AM - jbigler1986: Link? Google didn't help
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:22 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah, it's a killer drive block
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:22 AM - Mike Kelly: http://3dprint.com/41127/bondtech-extruder-v2/
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:22 AM - Mike Glass: Martin Bondéus the inventor of it will be there.
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:22 AM - Mike Kelly: https://d36c0vbvwjb9cx.cloudfront.net/uploads/image/file/60234/Bondtech_Extruder_open.jpg
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:23 AM - Mike Glass:
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:24 AM - jbigler1986: I like that
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:24 AM - Mike Glass: wonder if that would work for ninjaflex
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:24 AM - jbigler1986: Could make it look really nice by printing the case in a different color
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:27 AM - Mike Kelly: i dunno i don't like transitions for ninjaflex
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:28 AM - Mike Kelly: either way if he ever has JIT shipping i'll get one
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:29 AM - jbigler1986: Wonder how much they will cost
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:29 AM - Mike Glass: bout $100
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:31 AM - jbigler1986: Most failed prints are due to the hotend though. Not the extruder itself as much though. Am I wrong?
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:32 AM - Mike Kelly: https://plus.google.com/u/1/106109247591403112418/posts/e2j7oHpWVKL?cfem=1 new project
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:33 AM - Mike Kelly: that's kinda a tricky question, hard to say when it's one or the other
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:34 AM - Mike Kelly: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:713815
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:38 AM - jbigler1986: That's a lot of parts
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:39 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah but if you have nothing else to print it's a fun project
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:40 AM - jbigler1986: That is true
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:41 AM - Mike Kelly: his engine is also badass
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:41 AM - jbigler1986: USPS has 19 minutes to get me my E3D before I get my shipping cost back
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:41 AM - Mike Kelly: hahaha
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:41 AM - jbigler1986: Not going to happen
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:44 AM - jbigler1986: I'n not that far away from Deleware and it was supposed to be here yesterday. How the hell can they 1 or 2 day ship to Cali? UPS and FedEx are good at overnight shipping.
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:45 AM - jbigler1986: Oh well. I was messing with solidworks earlier. Getting a little bit of an idea how it works
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:46 AM - Mike Glass: I got mine in two days from them.
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:46 AM - Mike Kelly: do the built in tutorials, they're helpful
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:46 AM - jbigler1986: Didn't know they had them. I was using youtube
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:47 AM - Mike Glass: build the tutorials, def worth it
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:47 AM - Mike Glass: distributor cap was my fav
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:48 AM - jbigler1986: Looks like i get to annoying the wife by chicken pecking the keyboard in bed tonight. Lol
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:49 AM - Mike Kelly: oh no you're one of them
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:49 AM - jbigler1986: Rarely
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:50 AM - Mike Glass: i use a spacenavigator not a keyboard with solidworks.
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:50 AM - Mike Kelly: my boss chicken pecks
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:51 AM - Mike Kelly: and he's written like 5 novels
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:51 AM - Mike Kelly: wtf
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:51 AM - jbigler1986: It would only be chicken pecking because lights would be off so hard to see they keys as they aren't backlit
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:52 AM - Mike Kelly: ah
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:53 AM - Mike Kelly: thats why f and j have bumps
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:53 AM - jbigler1986: very true
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:55 AM - Mike Glass: and why women have nipples!
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:55 AM - jbigler1986: haha
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:56 AM - Mike Glass: to find in the dark, and temp gauge. dual purpose
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:57 AM - Mike Kelly: lmao
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:57 AM - Mike Kelly: your poor wife
Mar 12, 2015 at 12:59 AM - jbigler1986: Well this convo has changed

Mar 12, 2015 at 1:37 AM - Mike Kelly: gotta love donations, makes it all wort it
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:38 AM - Mike Kelly: maybe i will do that E3Dv6 dual fan shroud as well
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:41 AM - Mike Glass: what are you donating
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:41 AM - Mike Glass: besides hundreds of hours
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:42 AM - Mike Kelly: i donate time, people donate money
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:42 AM - Mike Kelly: and sometimes filament, but mostly money
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:44 AM - Mike Glass: I need a filament donor..lol
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:45 AM - Mike Kelly: mike what are some wood working tools that I might need but probably don't have
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:45 AM - jbigler1986: back
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:46 AM - Mike Glass: What kind of things you looking at building?
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:46 AM - Mike Kelly: shelving, a stool, a bar ledge for our patio
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:46 AM - Mike Glass: Table Saw?

 

Mar 12, 2015 at 1:47 AM - Mike Kelly: got that
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:48 AM - Mike Kelly: i should ask for some wood grips for that
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:48 AM - Mike Glass: Compound miter saw
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:48 AM - Mike Kelly: ooo yeah i'll ask for that
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:48 AM - Mike Kelly: probably won't get that but good to have one on my list
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:49 AM - Mike Kelly: got a preferred brand
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:49 AM - Mike Glass: Dewalt of course
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:50 AM - Mike Kelly: difference between single bevel and double?
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:51 AM - Mike Glass: swivels both sides
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:52 AM - Mike Glass: My cheaper one just angles to the left.
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:53 AM - Mike Glass: guess the ones the have now both swivel both sides, the more expensive on has the slide so you can cut wider boards. thats the one I have.
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:54 AM - Mike Glass: one of the ones I have..lol
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:54 AM - Mike Kelly: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000ASBCK4...colid=M1P03ID72IYN&coliid=IXML9TN0H4U8U&psc=1 so does this not slide?
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:55 AM - Stephen Capistron: any of you watched the SawStop Videos?
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:55 AM - Mike Glass: I have that one and this one. http://www.homedepot.com/p/DEWALT-1...l-Sliding-Compound-Miter-Saw-DWS780/202922350
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:55 AM - Mike Glass: yea sawstop is cool
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:55 AM - Mike Glass: but rather loose a finger then my saw..lol
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:56 AM - Stephen Capistron: double bevel is good if you are tight on space
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:56 AM - Stephen Capistron: i.e. the work piece is always going to be off to the same side
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:56 AM - Stephen Capistron: my middle finger has kissed a saw blade once
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:56 AM - Mike Kelly: man that miter is more than my table saw
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:59 AM - Mike Glass: I have mine on one of the stands with wheels.
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:59 AM - Stephen Capistron: a slider is cool, but if i need to cross cut something that big I just use a circular saw and a fence
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:59 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah we have a slider
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:59 AM - Mike Kelly: at work
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:59 AM - Mike Glass: I love my slider, saves alot of time for me.
Mar 12, 2015 at 1:59 AM - Stephen Capistron: i assume you already have a decent drill press
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:00 AM - Stephen Capistron: router and a table are nice to haves
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:00 AM - Mike Kelly: actually i don't
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:00 AM - Stephen Capistron: as are biscuit joiners
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:00 AM - Mike Kelly: i got a router and a table and a table saw
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:00 AM - Mike Glass: hard to cut a 12' 4x4 on a table saw
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:00 AM - Mike Kelly: i should ask for some hand tools
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:01 AM - Stephen Capistron: orbital sander?
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:01 AM - Mike Glass: Mike You need to come here I have double of everything..lol I need to liquidate
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:01 AM - Mike Glass: specially after I get my shopsmith done
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:01 AM - Mike Kelly: i'll buy from you
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:02 AM - Stephen Capistron: hand tools? clamps
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:03 AM - Stephen Capistron: chisels
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:03 AM - Mike Kelly: i have a few clamps and chisels
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:03 AM - Stephen Capistron: http://www.woodcraft.com/stores/store.aspx?id=305
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:03 AM - Mike Kelly: damn there's a lot of drill press options
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:03 AM - Mike Glass: I have a 10' compuund saw I dont use anymore.
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:04 AM - Mike Kelly: sliding?
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:04 AM - Mike Glass: I have a jet drill press that I wont need soon.
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:04 AM - Mike Glass: not sliding, just basic
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:05 AM - Mike Kelly: ah
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:05 AM - Mike Glass: like the one you linked
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:05 AM - Mike Kelly: i really need a good table
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:05 AM - Mike Kelly: trying to decide if i should buy one or try building
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:05 AM - Mike Glass: talbe saw?
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:06 AM - Mike Kelly: na like a bench
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:07 AM - Mike Glass: yea, I need to make one also, right now I have two of these and a 4x8 sheet of melamine. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Keter-21-65-in-x-33-46-in-x-29-7-in-Folding-Work-Table-197283/203118732
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:07 AM - Mike Glass: They had these as costco for $50
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:08 AM - Mike Kelly: wow nice
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:08 AM - Mike Glass: sturdy as hell
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:08 AM - Stephen Capistron: for a work bench ideally it either weighs a ton or you can bolt it to the wall
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:08 AM - Mike Kelly: i have plans to tear out all the cabinetry in the garage and build something better
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:09 AM - Mike Kelly: i already have approval to tear, just need to get the expense report approved
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:09 AM - Mike Kelly: they're really shitty and something in them smells AWFUL
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:09 AM - Mike Glass: I build concrete tables so need to build a steel bench also.
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:10 AM - Mike Kelly: wow
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:10 AM - Mike Kelly: do you have a crane?
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:10 AM - Mike Glass: they are only 36x20"
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:11 AM - Mike Glass: but yes very heavy still
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:11 AM - Stephen Capistron: i had not thought of doing that. homemade concrete counter as a core for a workbench
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:11 AM - Mike Glass: you need one of these also.
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:11 AM - Stephen Capistron: put a nice little plywood / melanine top on it
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:12 AM - Mike Glass:
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:13 AM - Mike Kelly: that's pretty cool
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:13 AM - Stephen Capistron: i like these for finishing furniture
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:13 AM - Stephen Capistron: http://www.woodcraft.com/Product/147419/Curved-Scraper-Set-of-4.aspx
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:13 AM - Stephen Capistron: can be a bit tricky to get the hang of
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:13 AM - Mike Kelly: do you like bosch for that?
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:14 AM - Mike Kelly: wow belt sanders are more expensive than i would have imagined
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:14 AM - Mike Glass: I have an old sand cat like 30 years old still works, but bosch is nice. but exspensive
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:15 AM - Mike Glass: Right? I was amazed
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:15 AM - Mike Kelly: i know porter cables really popular
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:15 AM - Mike Glass: $48 for a black n decker
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:15 AM - Mike Kelly: http://www.amazon.com/PORTER-CABLE-...F8&qid=1426180432&sr=1-7&keywords=belt+sander
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:15 AM - Stephen Capistron: incra and kreg make a bunch of fixture / guide systems you might like
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:15 AM - Stephen Capistron: or borrow the design and print your own..
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:15 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah why is the black and decker so cheap
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:15 AM - Mike Kelly: no bag?
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:16 AM - Stephen Capistron: i love looking at power tools and trying to figure out which ones are made in the same exact factory / by the same parent company by picking up on design features
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:16 AM - Mike Kelly: haha
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:17 AM - Mike Kelly: makita and ryobi's look awfully similar
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:23 AM - Mike Glass: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:498713
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:24 AM - Mike Kelly: i still need to model that angle mark tool
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:26 AM - Mike Glass: This is like my old 30 year sander I have. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Skil-3-i...CH=RV-_-rv_search_plp_rr-_-NA-_-203362568-_-N
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:27 AM - Mike Glass: cheap yea, lasts - hell yea
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:27 AM - Stephen Capistron:
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:27 AM - Stephen Capistron: what angle thing?
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:28 AM - Mike Glass: ahaha, Ive done that with mine, turn it on and let it go..
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:29 AM - jbigler1986: Nooooo
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:30 AM - Mike Kelly: hmm i thought i bookmarked it, damn
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:30 AM - Mike Kelly: lemme try and find it
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:31 AM - jbigler1986: Damn USPS sent my package to the wrong location. If my local post office doesn't have it by 6 i won't get it until tomorrow.
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:31 AM - jbigler1986: Looking like no printing tonight either
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:31 AM - Mike Kelly: damn man that blows

 

Mar 12, 2015 at 2:31 AM - Mike Glass: I thought you where looking for the bumps tonight..?
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:32 AM - Kevin Nguyen: morning everyone
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:33 AM - jbigler1986: MG who were you talking to
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:34 AM - Mike Glass: you JB
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:35 AM - Mike Glass: Ok, should I order 618 Nylon
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:37 AM - jbigler1986: bumps?
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:38 AM - Mike Glass: or PCTPE
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:39 AM - Mike Glass: JB, did you not remember the bumps on the keyboard convo
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:39 AM - jbigler1986: Oh yeah. Duh. Well I was going to do both
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:40 AM - jbigler1986: I would say PCTPE. But that's me without really having knowledge of either
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:40 AM - Mike Glass: lol,
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:42 AM - Mike Kelly: i'd use bridge over 618
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:42 AM - Mike Glass: Nylon is cheaper maybe start with that, I want something you can dye.
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:42 AM - Mike Glass: PCTPE is very flexible though but very durable.
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:46 AM - Mike Kelly: http://www.simplescribe.com/ found it
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:46 AM - Mike Glass: why bridge mike
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:46 AM - Mike Kelly: looks like something super easy to design and print
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:46 AM - Mike Glass: that would be IP infringement MIkey
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:46 AM - Mike Glass: lol
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:46 AM - Mike Kelly: well i only have anecdotal evidence of 618 and 645(?)'s performance, but they seem to struggle a lot with adhesion and delamination
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:46 AM - Mike Kelly: your point being?
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:47 AM - Mike Kelly: he doesn't have a patent on it
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:47 AM - Mike Glass: oh, guess its ok, design away..lol I think you slhluld that is cool.
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:47 AM - Mike Kelly: right? it's a cool thing
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:48 AM - Mike Kelly: not like he charges a lot but that's like a dollar print
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:48 AM - Mike Glass: and like 10cents to cast.
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:48 AM - jbigler1986: I'm going to start printing firework "punks" instead of buying wood filament. That should work right? Lol
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:49 AM - Mike Kelly: lol
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:49 AM - Mike Kelly: try it with your new e3d and let us know
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:49 AM - jbigler1986: Might as well. What else can I throw at it
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:50 AM - jbigler1986: Fishing line
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:50 AM - Mike Glass: so do you think PCTPE would be a better choice?
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:50 AM - Mike Kelly: i don't know much about PCTPE, but I REALLY like bridge
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:50 AM - Mike Kelly: it's worth trying imo
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:50 AM - Mike Kelly: i bought a weed whacker line replacement spool
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:50 AM - Mike Kelly: at some point i want to try printing that
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:51 AM - jbigler1986: Lol
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:51 AM - Mike Glass: Ok, and its cheap
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:51 AM - jbigler1986: I really wonder what people have tried to use as filament
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:51 AM - Mike Glass: bridge that is
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:52 AM - Mike Glass: Dont Temp me..lol I have spool of that stuff but its square.
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:53 AM - Mike Kelly: http://www.amazon.com/Maxpower-3336...8&qid=1426182772&sr=8-3&keywords=trimmer+line 22 bucks for 3 lbs
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:53 AM - jbigler1986: You could remove hotend and push it through to see what happens
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:53 AM - Mike Kelly: apparently if you dehydrate it prints well
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:53 AM - Mike Kelly: a little smaller than 1.75mm
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:53 AM - jbigler1986: Very interesting
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:53 AM - Mike Glass:
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:53 AM - Mike Kelly: i also used bridge on my weed wacker when it ran out and didn't have replacement
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:54 AM - Mike Kelly: that didn't go so well, too thick
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:54 AM - Stephen Capistron: 200# monofilament is about .75mm in diameter
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:55 AM - Mike Kelly: did you see the scribe stephen?
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:55 AM - Stephen Capistron: yup
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:55 AM - Mike Kelly: totally printable right
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:55 AM - Stephen Capistron: easily
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:56 AM - Ben Lindstrom: Love how after I posted that message about staying logged in not working it makes me look like a lier. =) As it has worked so far today.
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:57 AM - Mike Kelly: it's kinda hit or miss it seems
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:58 AM - Ben Lindstrom: Anyone heart of this print plate? http://printinz.com/printer-plates/
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:59 AM - jbigler1986: That guys print actually turned out not bad
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:59 AM - Ben Lindstrom: Saw it over on Cobblebot forums.
Mar 12, 2015 at 2:59 AM - Ben Lindstrom: Unlike Flex it can be cleaned with solvents and can be heated.
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:00 AM - Mike Kelly: i'm using it
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:00 AM - Mike Kelly: i heart it
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:02 AM - Ben Lindstrom: I'm debating it for the backup printer I'm getting. And I like the fact it looks more robust than Flex plate.
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:04 AM - jbigler1986: I have no issues with the robo bed. prints come off easy enough and stick with no issues
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:04 AM - Mike Kelly: it's just nice not needing hairspray
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:04 AM - Mike Kelly: the less i have to do between prints, the better
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:05 AM - Ben Lindstrom: Oh, I have little interest at this moment changing my Robo3d.. it is working, and the output is acceptable. I refuse to destroy it anymore until I have something else that works as well. =)
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:05 AM - jbigler1986: What?! And not get the lovely smell of hairspray
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:05 AM - Mike Kelly: haha
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:06 AM - jbigler1986: That's half of the fun
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:06 AM - Mike Kelly: plus it has a copper foil inlay so it works with proximity sensors
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:06 AM - Mike Kelly: which owns
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:06 AM - jbigler1986: How much is it
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:06 AM - Mike Kelly: $70
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:07 AM - Mike Kelly: but i got mine for much less because i'm testing for him
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:07 AM - Ben Lindstrom: The proximity sensor is the more intersting bit for me.
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:07 AM - Mike Kelly: that's what really drew my eye
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:07 AM - Mike Kelly: plus it's actually available unlike gecko tek
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:07 AM - jbigler1986: Who sells it
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:08 AM - Mike Kelly: he just linked it
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:08 AM - Mike Kelly: http://printinz.com/10-x-10-254mm-x-254mm-printer-plate/
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:08 AM - Ben Lindstrom: adafruit also sells some of them.
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:08 AM - jbigler1986: Is that surface smooth?
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:09 AM - Mike Kelly: yup
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:09 AM - Mike Kelly: creates a real nice finish
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:09 AM - Mike Kelly: not quite shiny like glass but still very nice
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:09 AM - jbigler1986: Had any issues with it?
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:10 AM - Mike Glass: when its free what could be the issue?
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:10 AM - Mike Kelly: if you're too low it can get stuck on really good and hard to get off, but i have my toybuilderlabs spatula and that'll get almost anything off
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:11 AM - jbigler1986: He said "much less" not free. Unless that does mean free.
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:12 AM - Mike Kelly: well one was, i paid a bit for my second one
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:12 AM - Ben Lindstrom: My main concern with the Flex was their "oh gawd don't put it near a heated bed!" But when you stop and think the print head is hotter than you ever set the heated bed I makes me twitchy about a head crash after the print head is up to temp.
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:12 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah and the robo normally levels with the nozzle touching the bed
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:12 AM - Mike Kelly: the printinz might scratch a little but nothing detrimental
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:13 AM - jbigler1986: Until i break my bed or something I don't think i'm going to invest in one of those
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:14 AM - Ben Lindstrom: As stated this is for a 2nd printer coming later this year.
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:14 AM - jbigler1986: Can't you just get some perforated board?
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:15 AM - jbigler1986: My UP used that and it work very good
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:15 AM - Mike Kelly: i mean yes but then the bottom of your print has perforations
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:15 AM - Stephen Capistron: needs to be thermally conductive

 

Mar 12, 2015 at 3:15 AM - jbigler1986: Also flexible. Not nearly as flexible as that is though
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:16 AM - Ben Lindstrom: I could do a lot of things. The eye is also this 2nd printer may spent more time outside my house than in it (read: at friends / families) so anything to make nicer pieces and less pains than I take with my robo3d will be best. =)
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:16 AM - Mike Kelly: what are you considering for #2
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:17 AM - Ben Lindstrom: =) Something that was dirt cheap.. the $200 Cobblebot Little Monster.
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:17 AM - jbigler1986:
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:17 AM - Ben Lindstrom: It is a standard metal frame, boden style.
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:17 AM - Ben Lindstrom: 10x10x10 bed
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:18 AM - Mike Kelly: interesting
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:18 AM - jbigler1986: Never seen that before
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:18 AM - Ben Lindstrom: We'll see... It is another kickstarter.. and it will be "build your own."
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:19 AM - Ben Lindstrom: Since I actually didn't get to build my Robo3d =)
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:19 AM - jbigler1986: I would be ok with a build your own for that cheap
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:20 AM - jbigler1986: Kinda wish I started with a build your own that way I had more knowledge
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:20 AM - Mike Kelly: do what i did and redesign your robo
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:21 AM - Ben Lindstrom: It was best the Robo3d (KS edition) was sent to be assembled. I firmly believe now I wouldn't have been ready.
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:21 AM - Ben Lindstrom: Still have to do the bed upgrade to get off the original drawer sliders..
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:22 AM - Mike Kelly: wow
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:23 AM - Ben Lindstrom: =) Can't blame me for not wanting to disable my only working 3d printer to fix it. Unless I know I have a backup. Plus it hasn't been a big issue for me. The prints are within what I consider to be acceptable (which may be still on the "low side" for the more advance users)
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:23 AM - Mike Kelly: right
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:24 AM - Ben Lindstrom: I did the E3Dv6 upgrade. =) So it isn't 100% stock.
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:24 AM - jbigler1986: $15 credit at Printedsolid. What shall I purchase
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:24 AM - Mike Kelly: mine was doing well but i wanted better, then i ended up making things worse for about 6 months
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:24 AM - Mike Kelly: now it's better than ever
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:25 AM - Ben Lindstrom: So Mike, is there a thread on the wiring/hardware needed for the Printinz plate with the metal inlay?
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:25 AM - Mike Kelly: nope
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:26 AM - Mike Kelly: wiring the prox switch is just like a switch
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:26 AM - Mike Kelly: then hardware is just binder clips
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:26 AM - Ben Lindstrom: ok.. Just wondering as that really is the only thing that takes the most time for me when I print. Is slightly correcting the first layer by hand.
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:27 AM - Mike Kelly: i guess you still use the mechanical screw
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:28 AM - Ben Lindstrom: ya..
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:30 AM - jbigler1986: Does printedsolid have replacement heat block for hex
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:30 AM - jbigler1986: I can't find it if he does
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:31 AM - Mike Kelly: don't think so but you can use an E3D one
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:31 AM - Mike Kelly: just need to use e3d nozzles with it
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:31 AM - Mike Kelly: he might be willing to sell you one if you ask as well
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:33 AM - jbigler1986: Good idea.
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:39 AM - jbigler1986: I need a new heating element too
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:39 AM - jbigler1986: Easy to find on amazon though
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:43 AM - Kevin Nguyen: .0.
Mar 12, 2015 at 3:56 AM - Stephen Capistron: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:672343
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:11 AM - Mike Glass: Hey Mike that link you posted from amazon on the trimmer line, is that what ships with the robo..lol
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:15 AM - Mike Kelly: hahaha
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:18 AM - Mike Glass: should I buy some?
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:21 AM - jbigler1986: $21 for 3lbs?
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:21 AM - Mike Kelly: if you want i guess, i have never tried it
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:21 AM - Mike Kelly: supposedly you should dehydrate it first
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:22 AM - jbigler1986: That wouldn't be that difficult
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:24 AM - Mike Kelly: nope
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:25 AM - jbigler1986: Quality looks crappy. Zoomed in on the photo
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:25 AM - Mike Kelly: http://timewheel.net/Image-This-Student-s-Faucet-Design-Saves-Water-By-Using-Elaborate whoa
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:26 AM - Mike Glass: we could print that eh
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:27 AM - jbigler1986: Everything but the springs?
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:28 AM - Mike Glass: what, I can print springs
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:29 AM - jbigler1986: I printed one too but it wasn't very strong at all
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:29 AM - jbigler1986: squished to easily
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:30 AM - Mike Glass: abs
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:31 AM - jbigler1986: No. That probably would have helped
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:31 AM - jbigler1986: Do you remember that filament i measured at like 1.9mm?
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:32 AM - jbigler1986: Think the E3D will print it fine?
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:37 AM - Mike Glass: ok nylon and t-glase ordered.
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:39 AM - jbigler1986: Let me know how that goes
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:39 AM - jbigler1986: What material is food safe? I know PLA kind of is
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:45 AM - Mike Glass: t-glase is
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:47 AM - Mike Kelly: tritan is
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:47 AM - Mike Kelly: the e3d will have a better chance of printing 1.9mm because it's 2mm to the nozzle
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:47 AM - Mike Kelly: vs the hexagon which is like 1.8
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:48 AM - jbigler1986: That's what I thought
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:49 AM - jbigler1986: How tight should you tighten the tension bolts for the jhead?
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:49 AM - jbigler1986: Never asked that or seen a real answer
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:50 AM - Mike Kelly: which bolts?
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:51 AM - jbigler1986: The 2 with the springs
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:51 AM - Mike Kelly: that's kinda hard to answer really
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:52 AM - Mike Kelly: tight enough so that it grips the filament well without grinding it off or deforming it
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:52 AM - jbigler1986: I haven't had any issues with it I was just asking
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:54 AM - jbigler1986: 44 Second mark
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:54 AM - Mike Kelly: bigler matt just told me he can't find the filament holder mount file
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:54 AM - jbigler1986: Really
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:54 AM - jbigler1986: That's odd
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:55 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah he's been restructuring their files and can't find it in their old stuff
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:55 AM - jbigler1986: It's nowhere to be found.
Mar 12, 2015 at 4:59 AM - Mike Kelly: sure seems that way
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:00 AM - jbigler1986: Robo team has to have it somewhere
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:01 AM - Mike Kelly: he'd need to find it and didn't sound like he was much up to it
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:02 AM - jbigler1986: I wonder if the guy who made one on thingiverse designed from scratch or had the file
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:02 AM - Mike Kelly: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:255229
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:02 AM - Mike Kelly: you could ask him
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:02 AM - Mike Kelly: he probably designed from scratch
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:02 AM - Mike Kelly: if you can get me step, igs, prt, or sldprt that would be cool
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:03 AM - jbigler1986: I will try and message him
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:03 AM - jbigler1986: or her
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:04 AM - Mike Glass: what are you looking for?
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:05 AM - Mike Kelly: he wants to make a base for his camera using that principle
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:05 AM - Mike Glass: ah spool, you can have mine
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:05 AM - Mike Glass: Easy enough to make
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:06 AM - Mike Kelly: if you wanna model it that would be cool
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:06 AM - jbigler1986: Not just camera mount. There could be lots of things used with that as the base
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:06 AM - Mike Glass: no adjustablity though.
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:06 AM - Mike Kelly: could use a solidworks file of that
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:07 AM - Mike Glass: I like my mount just fine.
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:07 AM - jbigler1986: Yeah I will most likely use yours still. I could see it being the base a a tool holder

 

Mar 12, 2015 at 5:08 AM - Mike Kelly: i'm just working on collecting all the robo3d solidworks files
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:08 AM - Mike Kelly: that one seems to be the white whale
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:08 AM - Mike Kelly: and since i don't have that holder i have nothing to base on
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:09 AM - Mike Kelly: plus you can always use more modeling practice mike
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:10 AM - jbigler1986: Do you have a file for the side "case" with the spool holder?
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:10 AM - Mike Kelly: say what now
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:10 AM - jbigler1986: Whatever you want to call it.
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:11 AM - jbigler1986: The clear cover the goes on the top/side that you attach the spool holder rod to it
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:11 AM - Mike Kelly: oh no
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:11 AM - Mike Kelly: they never modeled that
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:11 AM - Mike Kelly: that thing sucked
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:11 AM - jbigler1986: I would have used it to mount a tool holder too
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:11 AM - Mike Glass: hmm isnt that where your extruder mount came from..lol
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:12 AM - Mike Kelly: i made the extruder mount from the curvature of the case
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:12 AM - jbigler1986: I just have one velcrod to the side. Don't like it
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:12 AM - Mike Kelly: i think mike's working on a tool holder from my design
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:13 AM - jbigler1986: what design is that
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:13 AM - Mike Glass: buwahhahaha
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:14 AM - Mike Kelly: https://www.youmagine.com/designs/dual-hercustruder the one i use for my motors
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:15 AM - Mike Glass: you case killer..lol
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:15 AM - jbigler1986: I know right
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:15 AM - Mike Kelly: i murdered mine
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:15 AM - Mike Kelly: it's got more holes than 2pac
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:15 AM - Mike Kelly: (too far?)
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:15 AM - Mike Glass: lol
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:15 AM - jbigler1986: nope
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:18 AM - Mike Kelly: i only regret the ones for the piano hinge
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:18 AM - Mike Kelly: really didn't need ever one
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:18 AM - Mike Glass: 2 a side maybe
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:18 AM - jbigler1986: I will never forgive USPS for making me wait to print stuff. How dare they
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:18 AM - Mike Glass: Try waiting a month
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:18 AM - Mike Kelly: 3 days?! WHAT IS THIS THE MIDDLE AGES
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:19 AM - jbigler1986: It will be 4
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:19 AM - Mike Kelly: *gasps*
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:19 AM - jbigler1986: I think. Either way
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:19 AM - jbigler1986: I will send my falcon next time
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:20 AM - Mike Kelly: there needs to be more regional 3d printing stores
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:20 AM - Mike Glass: Lets open one!
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:20 AM - jbigler1986: Agreed.
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:20 AM - Mike Kelly: i called up one here in denver and they treated me like an asshole for asking if they sold thermistors
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:20 AM - Mike Kelly: while selling their filament for 45/kg
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:20 AM - Mike Kelly: i was like "ok i hope you go out of business"
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:21 AM - jbigler1986: WTF. I like how it makes people happy to be assholes
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:21 AM - jbigler1986: Never will understand that
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:22 AM - Mike Kelly: i think they're one of those "we'll print your stuff" stores
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:22 AM - Mike Kelly: not an actual reseller
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:22 AM - jbigler1986: Dick's. Money is money
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:23 AM - Mike Kelly: yup, they saw a market and are trying to capitalize
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:23 AM - Mike Kelly: don't actually care about the community
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:23 AM - jbigler1986: But most people that can design stuff will likely have their own printer
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:26 AM - Mike Kelly: did you direct message that person about the spool file
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:26 AM - jbigler1986: Yep
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:26 AM - Mike Kelly: ok cool
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:27 AM - Mike Glass: spools are for fools..
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:28 AM - Mike Kelly: pellets or gtfo
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:28 AM - jbigler1986: Well see ya
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:28 AM - Mike Kelly: haha
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:28 AM - jbigler1986: How far away are they for pellets?
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:28 AM - jbigler1986: I know there is one that uses them
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:29 AM - Mike Kelly: richrap made a printer with one
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:29 AM - Mike Kelly: it just takes up so much more volume
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:30 AM - jbigler1986: I'm really interested in that $200 printer
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:30 AM - Mike Kelly: dammit i waited too long to check the print on the 2x and it ran out of hips
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:30 AM - Mike Kelly: so i getta fish that out later
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:31 AM - Mike Glass: What about the $100 printer
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:32 AM - jbigler1986: ?
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:33 AM - jbigler1986: That printer is actually $399
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:33 AM - jbigler1986: http://cobblebot.com/index.php/cobblebot-littlemonster-520.html
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:34 AM - Mike Kelly: i don't like cantilevers
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:34 AM - Mike Kelly: the vanguard has my interest
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:35 AM - jbigler1986: this http://3dprint.com/38081/vanguard-3d/
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:36 AM - Mike Kelly: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/cobblebot/cobblebot-little-monster-3d-printer
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:36 AM - Mike Kelly: cool robot though
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:37 AM - jbigler1986: Oh. the 12 x 12 x 12 one
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:37 AM - jbigler1986: $299. Cheap
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:39 AM - Mike Kelly: though really it's just a mendel max
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:39 AM - Mike Kelly: which are like a dime a dozen these days
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:39 AM - Mike Glass: I though you liked the Mendal
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:40 AM - Mike Kelly: i like the mendal90
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:40 AM - Mike Kelly: which doesn't use extruded aluminum
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:41 AM - Mike Glass: you dont like aluninum
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:42 AM - Mike Kelly: i do, but if i was gonna do something aluminum i'd make the herculien
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:43 AM - Mike Kelly: or a cnc
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:47 AM - jbigler1986: cnc's are loud though
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:48 AM - Mike Kelly: and take up space
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:48 AM - Mike Kelly: i just need to convince my wife to park outside
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:49 AM - Mike Glass: Loud isnt even close. Mine is ear Piercing!
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:50 AM - jbigler1986: Good luck with that
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:51 AM - Mike Kelly: why is there this new trend of mario kart parties in the bathroom
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:51 AM - Mike Kelly: BACK IN MY DAY
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:51 AM - jbigler1986: So I got a response from that guy
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:52 AM - jbigler1986: He said he designed it then sent that file to Robo to have it mass produced
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:52 AM - Mike Kelly: LMAO
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:52 AM - Mike Kelly: seriously?>'
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:52 AM - Mike Kelly: http://gfycat.com/MeanFoolishHoneyeater whoa
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:52 AM - jbigler1986: Minecraft people are crazy
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:52 AM - jbigler1986: Have you seen the working hard drive people built
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:53 AM - Mike Kelly: so did he say he wasn't willing to give it to you?
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:54 AM - Mike Glass: he sent his only file? not copy to them? seriously.
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:55 AM - Mike Kelly: haha

 

Mar 12, 2015 at 5:55 AM - Mike Kelly: there can be only 1
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:55 AM - jbigler1986: I just asked him
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:56 AM - jbigler1986: "Hello. DId you design the fron spool holder from scratch or did you have the Robo file for it?" Both, I designed it, the Robo sent the file out for mass production. I used that file to make a easily printable one. Did that answer your question?
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:56 AM - Mike Kelly: sounds like he's gonna be not cool about sharing
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:57 AM - Mike Glass: I just messaged him..lol
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:57 AM - jbigler1986: We shall see.
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:57 AM - Mike Kelly: well you said you wanted to learn solidworks right
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:57 AM - Mike Kelly: it's pretty easy to copy an STL
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:57 AM - jbigler1986: That I did
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:58 AM - Mike Glass: Yea its on its 2nd hour on mine now to reconize features..ugg
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:59 AM - Mike Kelly: oh man never use that tool
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:59 AM - jbigler1986: Didn't sound to friendly in that message
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:59 AM - Mike Kelly: the one time it actually successfully did something it was total garbage
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:59 AM - jbigler1986: Leaving work. I will be back after my lowes trip
Mar 12, 2015 at 5:59 AM - Mike Glass: Well, damn YouTube told me..lol
Mar 12, 2015 at 6:03 AM - Mike Kelly: http://spectrum.ieee.org/automaton/...s-robot-dodgeball-barrage#.VQGk4CmgCSA.reddit BAHAHA
Mar 12, 2015 at 6:03 AM - Mike Kelly: of all the ways to stop that thing
Mar 12, 2015 at 6:03 AM - Mike Kelly: also that's super creepy
Mar 12, 2015 at 6:06 AM - Mike Glass: haha emergency stop
Mar 12, 2015 at 6:17 AM - Mike Kelly: sounds like the guy who made the spool holder used to work at robo
Mar 12, 2015 at 6:18 AM - jbigler1986: We said 11/64th and 5/16th on the drill bits right
Mar 12, 2015 at 6:18 AM - jbigler1986: At lowes
Mar 12, 2015 at 6:18 AM - Mike Kelly: right
Mar 12, 2015 at 6:19 AM - jbigler1986: 5/16th seems large
Mar 12, 2015 at 6:19 AM - jbigler1986: But if you say so
Mar 12, 2015 at 6:21 AM - Mike Glass: hey he is the same guy that you got the fan shroud you sliced JB
Mar 12, 2015 at 6:22 AM - Mike Kelly: 5/16" is for the 8mm hole
Mar 12, 2015 at 6:25 AM - jbigler1986: Got a screw extracter too
Mar 12, 2015 at 6:28 AM - jbigler1986: Want me to take pictures before and after drilling for the thread?
Mar 12, 2015 at 6:29 AM - Mike Kelly: sure
Mar 12, 2015 at 6:29 AM - Mike Kelly: better than renders
Mar 12, 2015 at 6:33 AM - jbigler1986: Lmao. Just got a call from my wife at the park. My 7 year old said he sharted
Mar 12, 2015 at 6:39 AM - Mike Kelly: haha
Mar 12, 2015 at 6:40 AM - Mike Kelly: Shat is the past tense of shit, get it right geez
Mar 12, 2015 at 6:45 AM - Mike Kelly: ugh man folgers tastes like shart
Mar 12, 2015 at 7:10 AM - Mike Kelly: dammit to hell
Mar 12, 2015 at 7:10 AM - Mike Kelly: print ran out of filament and i didn't catch it
Mar 12, 2015 at 7:30 AM - jbigler1986: Got my hexagon apart. Gonna soak it in acetone and clean it up
Mar 12, 2015 at 7:48 AM - Mike Kelly: cool deal
Mar 12, 2015 at 7:49 AM - jbigler1986: That guy hasn't responded yet about
Mar 12, 2015 at 7:49 AM - jbigler1986: What were you printing when you ran out of filament
Mar 12, 2015 at 7:50 AM - Mike Kelly: one of the housing parts of the transmisison
Mar 12, 2015 at 7:50 AM - Mike Kelly: it was like 3mm from finishing too, kinda pissed
Mar 12, 2015 at 7:53 AM - jbigler1986: That's shitty
Mar 12, 2015 at 7:53 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah well, it happens
Mar 12, 2015 at 7:54 AM - Mike Kelly: put some fresh spools in, should be good now
Mar 12, 2015 at 8:02 AM - jbigler1986: Need that sensor
Mar 12, 2015 at 8:11 AM - jbigler1986: I have the jhead taken off. How the heck do I get to that spot to drill
Mar 12, 2015 at 8:17 AM - Mike Kelly: you took off the greg's wade?
Mar 12, 2015 at 8:19 AM - jbigler1986: Do I just need to remove the big gear?

Mar 12, 2015 at 8:41 AM - Mike Glass: I like the tool I idea, I can put the same one that im designing for the one I got from Mike.
Mar 12, 2015 at 8:43 AM - jbigler1986: I can only drill the filament hole. Can't drill the other
Mar 12, 2015 at 8:44 AM - Mike Glass: why not

Mar 12, 2015 at 8:53 AM - Mike Glass: I thought that middle piece needs to be drilled out a little. From the pics earlier.
Mar 12, 2015 at 8:54 AM - jbigler1986: Where the tab comes out yes. But there is no way to get to the inside of it that needs drilled
Mar 12, 2015 at 8:55 AM - jbigler1986: Unless I am blatantly missing something
Mar 12, 2015 at 8:56 AM - Mike Glass: look at those pictures again, I thought you just drilled it so much for the top to fit then make the filament hole bigger for the new tube
Mar 12, 2015 at 8:57 AM - Mike Glass: but it may already be deep enough without drilling, looks different then the pictures from what I can remember.
Mar 12, 2015 at 8:58 AM - jbigler1986: I'm going to drill the filament hole.
Mar 12, 2015 at 8:58 AM - jbigler1986: But the other I can't get to
Mar 12, 2015 at 9:00 AM - jbigler1986: I drill the filament hole all the way through from top to bottom right
Mar 12, 2015 at 9:02 AM - Mike Glass: not sure never done that upgrade.
Mar 12, 2015 at 9:04 AM - jbigler1986: I would assume so
Mar 12, 2015 at 9:06 AM - jbigler1986: Done
Mar 12, 2015 at 9:06 AM - jbigler1986: That was easy. Time to out it back together
Mar 12, 2015 at 9:06 AM - jbigler1986: Put

Mar 12, 2015 at 10:08 AM - jbigler1986: Didn't see the the 24v on the other one. Thanks for pointing that out
Mar 12, 2015 at 10:19 AM - Mike Glass: I think you should convert to 24volt
Mar 12, 2015 at 10:20 AM - Ben R: Dad gummit
Mar 12, 2015 at 10:20 AM - jbigler1986: Why is that
Mar 12, 2015 at 10:20 AM - Mike Glass: nobody else has
Mar 12, 2015 at 10:21 AM - Ben R: So you can run your platform flat out at 200c and you can run ice filament without losing temp
Mar 12, 2015 at 10:21 AM - jbigler1986: I'm horrible with electrical
