    May 29, 2015 5:36 AM - Stephen Capistron: its brutal. I'll even suffer through making small edits in Onshape using the touchpad
    May 29, 2015 5:37 AM - Stephen Capistron: that requires a little bit of patience and a lot of self hate
    May 29, 2015 5:37 AM - JeffTheMess: yeah exactly
    May 29, 2015 5:37 AM - Stephen Capistron: [​IMG]

    May 29, 2015 6:04 AM - Stephen Capistron: okay, so maybe silver filament with a yellow sharpie?
    May 29, 2015 6:06 AM - jbigler1986: well if i pshed the sharpie in far enough to color it, it was hard to extrude. if i loosened it any it wouldn't color. gonna print a different one and try it again
    May 29, 2015 6:08 AM - JeffTheMess: or just buy a gold spray can :)
    May 29, 2015 6:10 AM - jbigler1986: [​IMG]
    May 29, 2015 6:10 AM - jbigler1986: really? why not saturday?
    May 29, 2015 6:12 AM - JeffTheMess: they want you to suffer one more dat
    May 29, 2015 6:13 AM - jbigler1986: but i can get it today. how does that make sense
    May 29, 2015 6:15 AM - jbigler1986: i did sunday. just thought it was odd
    May 29, 2015 6:20 AM - jbigler1986: We can get you this item today. But if you want it tomorrow that's way to soon and we don't have enough time. lol
    May 29, 2015 6:20 AM - JeffTheMess: lol
    May 29, 2015 6:26 AM - jbigler1986: does that make sense?
    May 29, 2015 6:26 AM - Stephen Capistron: might be with who is contracted to deliver to your area. They might not do saturday deliveries, but they do sunday?
    May 29, 2015 6:28 AM - jbigler1986: some things had an option for saturday
    May 29, 2015 6:30 AM - JeffTheMess: Amazon says (oh JB order something? Let me mess with him)
    May 29, 2015 6:30 AM - jbigler1986: so it seems
    May 29, 2015 6:32 AM - daniel871: Does the glow in the dark filament actually work?
    May 29, 2015 6:32 AM - daniel871: Also what's the best kind to get?
    May 29, 2015 6:33 AM - Stephen Capistron: if you don't want to mess around just go ColorFabb
    May 29, 2015 6:35 AM - daniel871: Yeah, I'm less concerned with filament cost so long as it actually works.
    May 29, 2015 6:35 AM - jbigler1986: no idea if it works. if not it will just be a natural/white color
    May 29, 2015 6:35 AM - daniel871: And not like the cheap vending machine glow in the dark bracelet, actually casting light glowing.
    May 29, 2015 6:37 AM - Stephen Capistron: from Printed Solid, "TIP! For a better and longer lasting glow time print your models with 100% infill and charge up your models with some high power lights, or just let them enjoy the sunlight for a bit."
    May 29, 2015 6:38 AM - Stephen Capistron: I was going to suggest a cheap UV LED
    May 29, 2015 6:38 AM - JeffTheMess: that is the a great tip
    May 29, 2015 6:39 AM - jbigler1986: already have one. bondic light. lol
    May 29, 2015 6:39 AM - Stephen Capistron: UV light or print it solid
    May 29, 2015 6:41 AM - jbigler1986: wonder is setting the spool outside before using it would help too
    May 29, 2015 6:45 AM - Stephen Capistron: it will lose the phosphoresence over time
    May 29, 2015 6:46 AM - Stephen Capistron: have to be careful though because it is PLA based so it will soften a bit
    May 29, 2015 6:47 AM - jbigler1986: i didn't mean for a long time
    May 29, 2015 6:47 AM - daniel871: What about some of the ABS glow in the dark filaments?
    May 29, 2015 6:50 AM - Stephen Capistron: i would only give it a shot if you are already comfortable printing abs
    May 29, 2015 6:51 AM - daniel871: http://www.formfutura.com/175mm-easyfil-abs-glow-in-the-dark-green.html
    May 29, 2015 6:51 AM - daniel871: I was actually holding off on making ABS parts until after I get the enclosure set up.
    May 29, 2015 6:51 AM - Stephen Capistron: solutech is a decent brand. the reviews on the hatchbox are not so hot.
    May 29, 2015 6:52 AM - jbigler1986: ABfnS
    May 29, 2015 6:55 AM - jbigler1986: amazon reviews for hatchbox glow seem good
    May 29, 2015 6:56 AM - Stephen Capistron: big roll of abs is 3 stars
    May 29, 2015 6:57 AM - Stephen Capistron: [​IMG]
    May 29, 2015 6:57 AM - jbigler1986: glow hatchbox pla
    May 29, 2015 6:57 AM - jbigler1986: 4.5 stars
    May 29, 2015 6:57 AM - jbigler1986: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0..._p=2079475242&pf_rd_i=desktop#customerReviews
    May 29, 2015 7:01 AM - daniel871: Hatchbox White will be the first filament by them I'll be trying (because JustPLA didn't have any White when I was ordering).
    May 29, 2015 7:01 AM - Mike Kelly: morning
    May 29, 2015 7:01 AM - JeffTheMess: morning mike
    May 29, 2015 7:01 AM - daniel871: I really should order some ABS and print with it though, I guess.
    May 29, 2015 7:02 AM - Mike Kelly: if you've got that enclosure coming, definitely
    May 29, 2015 7:02 AM - jbigler1986: the bit holder that i printed that was orange and white. the white was hatchbox
    May 29, 2015 7:02 AM - daniel871: I've got lots of PLA, some Laywood, PET+, T-glase, Bronzefill and Stainless.
    May 29, 2015 7:02 AM - daniel871: Screw it, one of everything.
    May 29, 2015 7:03 AM - JeffTheMess: (we got a baller over here) lol
    May 29, 2015 7:03 AM - daniel871: Being single and not having any kids has some advantages. :p
    May 29, 2015 7:04 AM - Mike Kelly: [​IMG]
    May 29, 2015 7:04 AM - daniel871: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0..._m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=0E06XP813XT8FSDV3WM7
    May 29, 2015 7:04 AM - JeffTheMess: lmao
    May 29, 2015 7:05 AM - Mike Kelly: lol
    May 29, 2015 7:05 AM - daniel871: Good grief at the related products though.
    May 29, 2015 7:05 AM - jbigler1986: yeah. i would have tons of exotic filament if i had any use for them
    May 29, 2015 7:05 AM - jbigler1986: havent needed anything besides PLA (yet)
    May 29, 2015 7:06 AM - Mike Kelly: that's why i don't buy many exotic filaments
    May 29, 2015 7:06 AM - Mike Kelly: just can't figure out what to use it for
    May 29, 2015 7:06 AM - daniel871: Printed that Mombal heart thing out of laywood yesterday evening, but didn't get a pick of it.
    May 29, 2015 7:06 AM - daniel871: That was pretty neat.
    May 29, 2015 7:06 AM - jbigler1986: oh god if i had a use i would probably have like 30 spools of filament
    May 29, 2015 7:06 AM - daniel871: pic
    May 29, 2015 7:06 AM - jbigler1986: or more. I have like 21 of PLA right now
    May 29, 2015 7:07 AM - JeffTheMess: addictions of filament is a serious problem
    May 29, 2015 7:07 AM - Mike Kelly: i need some more colors in pla
    May 29, 2015 7:07 AM - Mike Kelly: i only have like neutral and pink and green pla/pha
    May 29, 2015 7:07 AM - jbigler1986: You name it i got it
    May 29, 2015 7:07 AM - Mike Kelly: magenta

    May 29, 2015 7:07 AM - jbigler1986: Some of them are getting really low though
    May 29, 2015 7:08 AM - jbigler1986: i have purple
    May 29, 2015 7:08 AM - jbigler1986: and pink
    May 29, 2015 7:08 AM - daniel871: I had like two feet of PET+ off of one of the spools leftover after one of my last prints in that material. Need to find something small to print out of it.
    May 29, 2015 7:09 AM - jbigler1986: red, yellow, green, another yellow (which is like neon green), white, blue, baby blue, gray, gold, black, translucent black, purple, pink, orange
    May 29, 2015 7:10 AM - jbigler1986: cinnamon red
    May 29, 2015 7:10 AM - Mike Kelly: grey?
    May 29, 2015 7:10 AM - Mike Kelly: oh
    May 29, 2015 7:10 AM - Mike Kelly: derp
    May 29, 2015 7:10 AM - daniel871: ay
    May 29, 2015 7:11 AM - Mike Kelly: man something stinks
    May 29, 2015 7:11 AM - daniel871: All that rain yesterday flooded the sewer?
    May 29, 2015 7:11 AM - jbigler1986: ?
    May 29, 2015 7:11 AM - Mike Kelly: didn't actually rain much yesterday
    May 29, 2015 7:13 AM - daniel871: If the v6 is printing fine now, should I hold off on switching over to the Volcano or just go ahead and do it and hold onto the v6 as a backup?
    May 29, 2015 7:14 AM - daniel871: Going to have the range of .4 thru 1.2 nozzles from Printed Solid for the volcano and I've never used anything smaller than .4
    May 29, 2015 7:14 AM - Mike Kelly: if you don't intend on using smaller than .4 just go volcano
    May 29, 2015 7:17 AM - Stephen Capistron: I actually like the appearance of the thicker layers sometimes
    May 29, 2015 7:17 AM - daniel871: I'm trying to think of a reason why I'd need to.
    May 29, 2015 7:17 AM - jbigler1986: very fine detail
    May 29, 2015 7:17 AM - daniel871: I'd have to buy a smaller nozzle for the v6 to do it.
    May 29, 2015 7:18 AM - Mike Kelly: printing miniatures is a pretty common reason
    May 29, 2015 7:18 AM - jbigler1986: i love my .25 nozzle
    May 29, 2015 7:18 AM - daniel871: Like that miniature Marvin somebody printed?
    May 29, 2015 7:18 AM - Mike Kelly: you won't get that small but basically
    May 29, 2015 7:18 AM - jbigler1986: i very rarely use my .6 and .8 nozzle
    May 29, 2015 7:18 AM - jbigler1986: yeah that was with something else
    May 29, 2015 7:19 AM - daniel871: I'm thinking .4 will be the primary nozzle and the bigger ones will be for materials like T-glase.
    May 29, 2015 7:19 AM - daniel871: "I want to print this vase in less than a week" stuff.
    May 29, 2015 7:19 AM - Mike Kelly: thicker layers are better for structural stuff as well
    May 29, 2015 7:20 AM - jbigler1986: the vase i'm printing now is only 3 hours
    May 29, 2015 7:21 AM - jbigler1986: MG uses his .8 for vases all the time though
    May 29, 2015 7:21 AM - jbigler1986: and bowls
    May 29, 2015 7:21 AM - Mike Kelly: i should probably print a vase at some point
    May 29, 2015 7:22 AM - JeffTheMess: can't tell...are those rhombus' clear all the way through?
    May 29, 2015 7:22 AM - jbigler1986: it's looking really good right now
    May 29, 2015 7:22 AM - Mike Kelly: is that just regular black
    May 29, 2015 7:23 AM - jbigler1986: that's the translucent
    May 29, 2015 7:23 AM - jbigler1986: not nearly as translucent as i thought it would be. need to try hatchbox when they have it in stock
    May 29, 2015 7:24 AM - Mike Kelly: ding print's done
    May 29, 2015 7:24 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah agreed
    May 29, 2015 7:25 AM - jbigler1986: success. glad i didn't use vase mode though
    May 29, 2015 7:25 AM - Mike Kelly: whys that
    May 29, 2015 7:25 AM - jbigler1986: it would have left a few gaps in layers
    May 29, 2015 7:26 AM - Mike Kelly: ah
    May 29, 2015 7:26 AM - jbigler1986: like 3 or 4 were missing in the preview
    May 29, 2015 7:26 AM - JeffTheMess: theres a vase mode in s3d?
    May 29, 2015 7:26 AM - daniel871: Yeah, your vase was in PLA at 80mm/s though. T-glase has to print a whole lot slower than that.
    May 29, 2015 7:26 AM - daniel871: Yes.
    May 29, 2015 7:26 AM - jbigler1986: yep
    May 29, 2015 7:26 AM - daniel871: It's in the layer options tab.
    May 29, 2015 7:26 AM - jbigler1986: called something else
    May 29, 2015 7:27 AM - JeffTheMess: i printed a few vases with s3d never used vase mode
    May 29, 2015 7:27 AM - Mike Kelly: single outline corkscrew printing mode
    May 29, 2015 7:27 AM - Mike Kelly: (vase mode)
    May 29, 2015 7:27 AM - jbigler1986: still need to put 0 top layers. it doesn't change that for you
    May 29, 2015 7:27 AM - daniel871: Screencap coming.
    May 29, 2015 7:28 AM - daniel871: [​IMG]
    May 29, 2015 7:28 AM - daniel871: Haven't actually played with T-glase in S3D yet though.
    May 29, 2015 7:29 AM - JeffTheMess: nice...I should give it a shot....I would hope it will turn out better..my originals can out really pretty
    May 29, 2015 7:29 AM - daniel871: 1.2 volcano nozzle will probably be pretty neat.
    May 29, 2015 7:30 AM - daniel871: Man, next week can't get here fast enough. That's when everything will come in. Volcano set, enclosure kit, etc.
    May 29, 2015 7:31 AM - jbigler1986: MK where is my enclosure?
    May 29, 2015 7:33 AM - Stephen Capistron: vase mode should ignore any of those gaps and create a smooth surface
    May 29, 2015 7:34 AM - daniel871: It should in S3D anyway. I know MC was bad about just going ahead and skipping over gaps.
    May 29, 2015 7:34 AM - jbigler1986: vase mode created those gaps
    May 29, 2015 7:34 AM - daniel871: With S3D?
    May 29, 2015 7:35 AM - jbigler1986: yep. sliced regular they weren't there
    May 29, 2015 7:36 AM - daniel871: What about this option? [​IMG]
    May 29, 2015 7:37 AM - jbigler1986: vase mode over rides lots of settings
    May 29, 2015 7:38 AM - jbigler1986: http://www.thingiverse.com/download:222695
    May 29, 2015 7:38 AM - jbigler1986: errr. wait
    May 29, 2015 7:38 AM - jbigler1986: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:37327
    May 29, 2015 7:39 AM - jbigler1986: scaled it up to 1.1. see if you see the gaps i'm talking about
    May 29, 2015 7:39 AM - Mike Kelly: man stupid rep2x keeps jamming
    May 29, 2015 7:39 AM - jbigler1986: trash it
    May 29, 2015 7:40 AM - JeffTheMess: did you see the gaps for it's normal scale?
    May 29, 2015 7:40 AM - jbigler1986: didn't check
    May 29, 2015 7:40 AM - Mike Kelly: also jb, printed solid has your enclosure, just needs 90 for shipping
    May 29, 2015 7:40 AM - Mike Kelly: :)
    May 29, 2015 7:40 AM - JeffTheMess: lol
    May 29, 2015 7:40 AM - jbigler1986: nope. you were sending me one. remember
    May 29, 2015 7:41 AM - JeffTheMess: (for 90 he will)
    May 29, 2015 7:41 AM - Mike Kelly: lol
    May 29, 2015 7:41 AM - jbigler1986: do you not remember our convo
    May 29, 2015 7:41 AM - Mike Kelly: hmm nope
    May 29, 2015 7:41 AM - Mike Kelly: was i drunk
    May 29, 2015 7:42 AM - jbigler1986: i'm just messing with you
    May 29, 2015 7:42 AM - Mike Kelly: we have a chat log now so i can go back and see if you're lying :)
    May 29, 2015 7:42 AM - Mike Kelly: though i do owe you some beer and stuff
    May 29, 2015 7:43 AM - jbigler1986: no real hurry
    May 29, 2015 7:47 AM - Mike Kelly: my boss wrote an op ed in the wsj about how well sites should be forced to capture flare gas
    May 29, 2015 7:48 AM - Mike Kelly: no biase there
    May 29, 2015 7:48 AM - daniel871: Here's how it looks on mine with the 1.2 nozzle and spiral mode for T-glase, JB. [​IMG]
    May 29, 2015 7:49 AM - daniel871: Now whether it actually does that remains to be seen after I get the volcano.
    May 29, 2015 7:49 AM - Mike Kelly: what layer height
    May 29, 2015 7:55 AM - daniel871: Weird, I had 1.0 in there but it went back to .1 after the vase mode override warning popped up.
    May 29, 2015 7:55 AM - jbigler1986: 6 hours?
    May 29, 2015 7:56 AM - daniel871: .1
    May 29, 2015 7:56 AM - daniel871: Fiddling with it some more, hang on.

    May 29, 2015 7:57 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah i was gonna say, that would not take 6 hours
    May 29, 2015 7:58 AM - daniel871: What should the layer height be for a 1.2 nozzle, theoretically?
    May 29, 2015 7:58 AM - daniel871: In T-glase.
    May 29, 2015 7:58 AM - jbigler1986: whatever you want. i would do like .4 or so
    May 29, 2015 7:58 AM - jbigler1986: maybe .6
    May 29, 2015 7:59 AM - Stephen Capistron: good rule of thumb is at most 60% of diameter
    May 29, 2015 8:00 AM - Mike Kelly: i've heard 75%
    May 29, 2015 8:00 AM - daniel871: That's .9
    May 29, 2015 8:04 AM - daniel871: .5 looks like this: [​IMG]
    May 29, 2015 8:04 AM - daniel871: .9 has huge gaps.
    May 29, 2015 8:04 AM - Mike Kelly: that's because it's not rendering based on the filament diameter
    May 29, 2015 8:04 AM - Stephen Capistron: http://www.csmonitor.com/The-Cultur...ram-will-be-an-important-new-show-for-Netflix
    May 29, 2015 8:05 AM - daniel871: Is there a way to make the render more accurate?
    May 29, 2015 8:05 AM - Mike Kelly: not to my knowledge
    May 29, 2015 8:06 AM - daniel871: So the gaps shown may or may not happen in real life.
    May 29, 2015 8:06 AM - daniel871: Hm.
    May 29, 2015 8:07 AM - Mike Kelly: they won't happen
    May 29, 2015 8:07 AM - Mike Kelly: not a may scenario
    May 29, 2015 8:07 AM - Mike Glass: do l8
    May 29, 2015 8:08 AM - Mike Glass: ugg morning
    May 29, 2015 8:08 AM - Mike Kelly: lol morning
    May 29, 2015 8:08 AM - daniel871: .8?
    May 29, 2015 8:08 AM - Mike Glass: yes .8 should be best with 1.2
    May 29, 2015 8:09 AM - daniel871: Okay. This vase will be the test once it comes in and I get it and the enclosure put together.
    May 29, 2015 8:09 AM - daniel871: it = volcano
    May 29, 2015 8:10 AM - Mike Glass: actually they say adjust your your nozzle size on bigger to get the clearest with t-glase
    May 29, 2015 8:10 AM - daniel871: Woo, 57 minute print time at .8.
    May 29, 2015 8:10 AM - daniel871: 1.2 nozzle with 1.1 extrusion multiplier, or lie and say it's a bigger nozzle?
    May 29, 2015 8:11 AM - Mike Kelly: what
    May 29, 2015 8:11 AM - daniel871: There was something somewhere about putting either a larger than actual diameter for the nozzle size in your slicer software or upping the extrusion multiplier.
    May 29, 2015 8:11 AM - daniel871: Hang on.
    May 29, 2015 8:12 AM - Mike Glass: http://taulman3d.com/t-glase-features.html
    May 29, 2015 8:12 AM - daniel871: So for a .5 nozzle set it as .6, or for the 1.2 call it 1.3?
    May 29, 2015 8:13 AM - daniel871: See the table there.
    May 29, 2015 8:13 AM - daniel871: Wait, the 1mm nozzle didn't change.
    May 29, 2015 8:14 AM - jbigler1986: [​IMG]
    May 29, 2015 8:14 AM - Mike Kelly: huh
    May 29, 2015 8:14 AM - jbigler1986: see the gaps
    May 29, 2015 8:14 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah that's weird
    May 29, 2015 8:14 AM - Mike Glass: what the what
    May 29, 2015 8:14 AM - Mike Kelly: preview the gcode in repetier and see if they're still there
    May 29, 2015 8:15 AM - Mike Glass: I dont like using s3d for vase mode its does wierd stuff, I have best luck with repetier
    May 29, 2015 8:15 AM - Mike Glass: or is that vase mode?
    May 29, 2015 8:16 AM - daniel871: [​IMG]
    May 29, 2015 8:16 AM - daniel871: I was talking about using that as a guide for S3D.
    May 29, 2015 8:16 AM - jbigler1986: that was vase mode
    May 29, 2015 8:17 AM - jbigler1986: regular slicing it was fine. printed fine too
    May 29, 2015 8:17 AM - daniel871: Can you preview g-code with Cura? I haven't installed Repetier on this PC.
    May 29, 2015 8:18 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah
    May 29, 2015 8:18 AM - Mike Kelly: you can load gcode in cura, it's just not as good
    May 29, 2015 8:19 AM - daniel871: I'm a dummy, how do I do that?
    May 29, 2015 8:19 AM - daniel871: Just load like normal and pick the G-code file?
    May 29, 2015 8:19 AM - daniel871: Was looking for an "import Gcode" entry in the menu.
    May 29, 2015 8:20 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah
    May 29, 2015 8:21 AM - daniel871: Hm..
    May 29, 2015 8:21 AM - daniel871: Doesn't seem to be working.
    May 29, 2015 8:23 AM - daniel871: Hang on, installing Repetier Host.
    May 29, 2015 8:24 AM - daniel871: Skeinforge slicer?
    May 29, 2015 8:25 AM - Stephen Capistron: i don't think cura renders the g code
    May 29, 2015 8:25 AM - Stephen Capistron: it will print it though
    May 29, 2015 8:28 AM - Mike Kelly: i've never gotten skeinforge to instll
    May 29, 2015 8:28 AM - Stephen Capistron: could also try craftware
    May 29, 2015 8:28 AM - Mike Kelly: i think cura will only load gcode it sliced
    May 29, 2015 8:28 AM - Stephen Capistron: or matter control
    May 29, 2015 8:28 AM - Mike Kelly: i've definitely done it before
    May 29, 2015 8:30 AM - daniel871: Repetier preview of the Gcode: [​IMG]
    May 29, 2015 8:31 AM - Mike Kelly: now look under the g-code editor and see what each layer height transition is
    May 29, 2015 8:33 AM - Mike Kelly: i wonder if they make 12" tube
    May 29, 2015 8:34 AM - daniel871: Not seeing layer height transition, just layer height at .8
    May 29, 2015 8:35 AM - Stephen Capistron: who makes 12" tube?
    May 29, 2015 8:38 AM - Stephen Capistron: MK, if you stay at your job you should think about an e-bike for your commute. Help you conquer that hill between the office and home.
    May 29, 2015 8:39 AM - daniel871: What kind of 12" tube?
    May 29, 2015 8:39 AM - Mike Kelly: CS
    May 29, 2015 8:39 AM - Mike Kelly: i think it exists
    May 29, 2015 8:40 AM - daniel871: CS?
    May 29, 2015 8:40 AM - Stephen Capistron: carbon steel?
    May 29, 2015 8:42 AM - daniel871: Ah well, I'll just experiment with the vase mode in S3D with that vase. I'll know in a hurry if it's going to print well or not so it's not like I'll waste a ton of time.
    May 29, 2015 8:46 AM - Bill Monroe: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/bills-lab
    May 29, 2015 8:53 AM - Mike Kelly: well design change, now i think we're going with some of these: http://www.mcmaster.com/#4048k65/=xe595b
    May 29, 2015 8:53 AM - Mike Kelly: though i really want that in carbon steel
    May 29, 2015 8:54 AM - Stephen Capistron: does it have to be socket weld? can always bend your own pipe
    May 29, 2015 8:54 AM - jbigler1986: whatcha printing?
    May 29, 2015 8:54 AM - Mike Kelly: no i'd prefer butt weld
    May 29, 2015 8:55 AM - Mike Kelly: but i don't see how we can make a 3" bend radius
    May 29, 2015 8:56 AM - Mike Glass: exuaust pipe bender?
    May 29, 2015 8:56 AM - Stephen Capistron: ugh, the basic benders are 4.5"
    May 29, 2015 8:56 AM - Mike Kelly: we're need a custom shaped mandril
    May 29, 2015 8:56 AM - Mike Kelly: and a huge press
    May 29, 2015 8:56 AM - Stephen Capistron: http://www.mcmaster.com/#2378a1/=xe5eob
    May 29, 2015 8:57 AM - Mike Kelly: the mandrel is the hard part
    May 29, 2015 8:58 AM - daniel871: Bill's camera is offline?
    May 29, 2015 8:59 AM - Stephen Capistron: yeah, if you wanted a custom mandrel I could see that pushing $1000
    May 29, 2015 8:59 AM - Mike Kelly: yup
    May 29, 2015 8:59 AM - Mike Glass: here is a cool mandrel
    May 29, 2015 9:01 AM - Mike Kelly: whats it even doing
    May 29, 2015 9:01 AM - Stephen Capistron: stretching the pipe with hydraulic pressure?
    May 29, 2015 9:01 AM - Mike Glass: haha not sure maybe flex to hardpipe pressing
    May 29, 2015 9:02 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah that's it, it's pressing together those pieces
    May 29, 2015 9:02 AM - Stephen Capistron: I know one of the cheats for hand bending copper is to fill it with sand
    May 29, 2015 9:03 AM - Stephen Capistron: you can see the end of "USA" dissappear under the steel part

    May 29, 2015 11:26 AM - daniel871: Hey, got a link to a free 50g of random PLA. http://www.eumakers.com/campione-omaggio-16/campione-omaggio.html?___store=en&___from_store=en
    May 29, 2015 11:27 AM - daniel871: No idea of the quality, color or amount of time it'll take to come in, but free filament.
    May 29, 2015 11:28 AM - daniel871: Also no idea if the site will allow you to submit multiple orders or not.
    May 29, 2015 11:29 AM - Mike Glass: rigid ink-- never heard of them before and are suppose to be a 5 star amazon supplier..wth
    May 29, 2015 11:33 AM - daniel871: 1.7mm & 3.0mm sizes. :eek:
    May 29, 2015 11:33 AM - daniel871: http://rigid.ink/
    May 29, 2015 11:33 AM - Stephen Capistron: 3 is actually 2.8 right?
    May 29, 2015 11:34 AM - daniel871: I think so.
    May 29, 2015 11:35 AM - Mike Glass: I just plced an order for the free PLA
    May 29, 2015 11:35 AM - Mike Glass: oh they are uk thats why...
    May 29, 2015 11:37 AM - Mike Kelly: 3 is sometimes 3mm but ultimaker uses 2.85 so that's what 3 is becoming
    May 29, 2015 11:44 AM - Printed Solid: A lot of times you have to ask the manufacturer on '3'. Typically 1.75 means 1.75+/- something , but 3 usually means 3 max.
    May 29, 2015 11:45 AM - Printed Solid: any 3mm bowden benefits from 2.85.
    May 29, 2015 11:45 AM - toy: printed that filament prints pretty nice ... ty
    May 29, 2015 11:45 AM - Printed Solid: : )
    May 29, 2015 11:45 AM - Printed Solid: good.
    May 29, 2015 11:46 AM - donhuevo: 1.75, 1.76... whatever it takes

    May 29, 2015 11:47 AM - daniel871: I got some of the free PLA coming as well if they don't balk about shipping to the US.
    May 29, 2015 11:48 AM - daniel871: Hopefully they send me some goofy color.

    May 29, 2015 11:51 AM - donhuevo: I need a math teacher to work out how many prints that will be
    May 29, 2015 11:51 AM - daniel871: Simplify it.
    May 29, 2015 11:51 AM - daniel871: Remove the students.
    May 29, 2015 11:51 AM - daniel871: :p
    May 29, 2015 11:51 AM - toy: i get paid 50$ a hour
    May 29, 2015 11:51 AM - daniel871: 14x5x10.
    May 29, 2015 11:52 AM - toy: 4 hour sessions
    May 29, 2015 11:52 AM - Mike Glass: how many printers?
    May 29, 2015 11:52 AM - toy: 2
    May 29, 2015 11:52 AM - donhuevo: well that complicates things
    May 29, 2015 11:52 AM - toy: robo and metalrobo
    May 29, 2015 11:52 AM - donhuevo: I thought metalrobo was sold
    May 29, 2015 11:53 AM - toy: yes to the youth science center
    May 29, 2015 11:53 AM - daniel871: Sold to the school, probably.
    May 29, 2015 11:53 AM - daniel871: Hahaha.
    May 29, 2015 11:53 AM - toy: and i still keep it with me at all times
    May 29, 2015 11:53 AM - daniel871: That's pretty sweet.
    May 29, 2015 11:53 AM - daniel871: Hey, I'm going to sell this to you and keep it.
    May 29, 2015 11:53 AM - toy: yup...no one else knows how to use it lol =)
    May 29, 2015 11:54 AM - daniel871: :p
    May 29, 2015 11:54 AM - donhuevo: if a 3d printer leaves the train station going west at 30mph...
    May 29, 2015 11:54 AM - toy: while extruding filament backwards at a rate of 2500mm per hour....
    May 29, 2015 11:54 AM - daniel871: ...how far into the Tower of Pi will the printer get before reaching Houston?
    May 29, 2015 11:55 AM - daniel871: That's kind of slow.
    May 29, 2015 11:55 AM - toy: drag
    May 29, 2015 11:55 AM - toy: from the train
    May 29, 2015 11:56 AM - daniel871: Psh, that's like the Mythbuster's thing about whether a plane on a treadmill can take off or not.
    May 29, 2015 11:56 AM - daniel871: Spoiler alert: It totally can.
    May 29, 2015 11:57 AM - Mike Kelly: huh
    May 29, 2015 11:57 AM - toy: if the plan is not moving how can it generate lift

    May 29, 2015 11:57 AM - daniel871:
    May 29, 2015 11:58 AM - Mike Kelly: oh
    May 29, 2015 11:59 AM - Mike Kelly: that totally doesn't count
    May 29, 2015 11:59 AM - daniel871: The answer is there is no way to build such a conveyor belt/treadmill.
    May 29, 2015 11:59 AM - daniel871: But also that the plane's motor will usually overpower the conveyor's resistance.
    May 29, 2015 12:00 PM - Mike Kelly: all that proved was that a truck could not pull a "conveyer" at the same acceleration as an airplane
    May 29, 2015 12:00 PM - Mike Glass: has nothing to do with the wheels its all about propultion, to me its a no brainer
    May 29, 2015 12:02 PM - donhuevo: now if that was in a vacuum...

    May 29, 2015 12:14 PM - donhuevo: so is there a way to increase the number of triangles of a curved object either through export to stl or in the slicing
    May 29, 2015 12:15 PM - donhuevo: and those are some sweet boobs. I'm sure they defied gravity in their day
    May 29, 2015 12:16 PM - Mike Kelly: lol thankfully boobs aren't like that
    May 29, 2015 12:16 PM - donhuevo: we'd all have our eyes poked out otherwise

    May 29, 2015 12:19 PM - daniel871: I, for one, hope she shows up when Thanos is kicking everyone's ass in the next Avengers movie.
    May 29, 2015 12:19 PM - daniel871: Just to freak movie-goers out for not knowing who she is if they don't read the comics.
    May 29, 2015 12:20 PM - daniel871: "Wait, I thought Death was a dude with a scythe?"
    May 29, 2015 12:20 PM - donhuevo: can't believe we have to wait til Summer 2017 for the next Guardians
    May 29, 2015 12:22 PM - daniel871: When was that Superman/Batman movie supposed to come out, again? Did DC cancel it?

    May 29, 2015 12:23 PM - Stephen Capistron: If you are going from a solid model, OnShape gives you stl quality settings. I haven't bothered with SW or CREO
    May 29, 2015 12:23 PM - donhuevo: just knocks it out
    May 29, 2015 12:23 PM - Mike Kelly: i think they both die yes
    May 29, 2015 12:25 PM - donhuevo: I may have to look deeper into my autocad and see if there's some settings I can tweak
    May 29, 2015 12:26 PM - daniel871: If I have to sign for that free 3D filament sample I'm going to be pissed.
    May 29, 2015 12:26 PM - daniel871: No way I'm taking off work for that.'
    May 29, 2015 12:29 PM - BryZad: Hey quick question for you mike
    May 29, 2015 12:30 PM - BryZad: Or anyone really
    May 29, 2015 12:30 PM - BryZad: Does anyone have a idea why the outer edges of my prints curl up ?
    May 29, 2015 12:31 PM - daniel871: What material is it?
    May 29, 2015 12:31 PM - BryZad: Pla
    May 29, 2015 12:31 PM - BryZad: To hot ?
    May 29, 2015 12:31 PM - daniel871: Not cooling fast enough is what I was told when I had the same problem.
    May 29, 2015 12:31 PM - daniel871: So yeah, probably too hot.
    May 29, 2015 12:31 PM - BryZad: Do you have dual fans ?
    May 29, 2015 12:31 PM - BryZad: Or fan ducts
    May 29, 2015 12:31 PM - daniel871: So I had the ceiling fan in the room going when printing.
    May 29, 2015 12:32 PM - daniel871: Not yet. Waiting on Amazon to ship me the fans.
    May 29, 2015 12:32 PM - daniel871: Printed the dual mount already.
    May 29, 2015 12:32 PM - Mike Kelly: do you have dual fans bry?
    May 29, 2015 12:32 PM - donhuevo: autocad: FACETRES .01 - 10 valid values. default is .5
    May 29, 2015 12:33 PM - BryZad: Nahh I just have the single and had a fan duct on one then it fell off during a print
    May 29, 2015 12:33 PM - BryZad: Daniel what dual mount did you print ?
    May 29, 2015 12:34 PM - BryZad: I am using a gray pla to witch is giving me a pain also
    May 29, 2015 12:34 PM - Mike Kelly: dual fans help
    May 29, 2015 12:35 PM - daniel871: The v6 dual fan mount that someone posted a link to in this shoutbox... two days ago?
    May 29, 2015 12:35 PM - daniel871: Waiting to actually put it on until I have my fans and the volcano add-on.
    May 29, 2015 12:36 PM - daniel871: Wait, do I need another fan mount for the volcano or will that one be fine?
    May 29, 2015 12:36 PM - BryZad: I noticed the gray pla I used print really different than the white I used on the shot gun
    May 29, 2015 12:37 PM - Mike Kelly: volcano uses the same heatsink
    May 29, 2015 12:37 PM - daniel871: I meant more for the angle of the part fan mount itself.
    May 29, 2015 12:37 PM - BryZad: You wouldn't have a link for the mount would you Dan I cant go back in the shoutbox
    May 29, 2015 12:37 PM - daniel871: Hang on and I'll look through the shoutbox archive.
    May 29, 2015 12:38 PM - Mike Kelly: https://www.dropbox.com/s/lrfy5uv1352dclg/v6 Fan Dual.STL?dl=0
    May 29, 2015 12:38 PM - Mike Kelly: if you have the e3dv6

    May 29, 2015 12:39 PM - daniel871: :(
    May 29, 2015 12:39 PM - daniel871: Here is the image anyway. [​IMG]
    May 29, 2015 12:41 PM - Mike Glass: there is also one for the HEx
    May 29, 2015 12:42 PM - BryZad: What fan brackets do you use ?
    May 29, 2015 12:42 PM - BryZad: Or are they in the drop file mike ?
    May 29, 2015 12:43 PM - daniel871: I was just going to attach mine with two screws to the angled surfaces you see there.
    May 29, 2015 12:45 PM - daniel871: Unless there was some reason to also mount shrouds to the fans?
    May 29, 2015 12:47 PM - Stephen Capistron: freecad lets you set a resolution too. I think there is no software limit on the mesh size, but your computer might explode if you get too carried away.
    May 29, 2015 12:48 PM - toy: http://i.imgur.com/vq4OMA9.jpg bondtechs in position...
    May 29, 2015 12:48 PM - daniel871: This probably won't work with the v6 heatsink, right? http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:794361
    May 29, 2015 12:50 PM - daniel871: It looks like that thing just clips onto the heatsink and doesn't actually screw in any where.
    May 29, 2015 12:51 PM - TechSupportGo: guitar is printed I will work on the v6 fan shrouds now
    May 29, 2015 12:57 PM - Stephen Capistron: that looks crazy restrictive on the fan
    May 29, 2015 12:59 PM - jbigler1986: oh yeah. Getting a raise next week.
    May 29, 2015 12:59 PM - jbigler1986: Yes that shroud looks bad
    May 29, 2015 12:59 PM - Mike Glass: whats wit the tape toy
    May 29, 2015 1:00 PM - Stephen Capistron: wire routing
    May 29, 2015 1:00 PM - daniel871: Do I need shrouds for the fans with that v6 dual mount, or is it fine like it is with two screws holding the fans?
    May 29, 2015 1:01 PM - Stephen Capistron: you do not have to have shrouds
    May 29, 2015 1:01 PM - Mike Glass: no need for shrouds
    May 29, 2015 1:01 PM - daniel871: Is it an aesthetics thing?
    May 29, 2015 1:01 PM - jbigler1986: nope. no shrouds
    May 29, 2015 1:01 PM - Mike Glass: they are too restrictive being too small
    May 29, 2015 1:01 PM - daniel871: High speed, low drag nonsense. Like spoilers on a Honda Civic?
    May 29, 2015 1:02 PM - Mike Glass: I would say more like a Lamborghini
    May 29, 2015 1:03 PM - daniel871: I'm more familiar with how useless they are on civics.
    May 29, 2015 1:06 PM - Mike Glass: BTW i just picked one up..lol [​IMG]
    May 29, 2015 1:06 PM - jbigler1986: a civic with a spoiler?
    May 29, 2015 1:07 PM - Mike Glass: hardly
    May 29, 2015 1:07 PM - jbigler1986: it's ok MG
    May 29, 2015 1:09 PM - Mike Glass: one of janitors dropped it off in my office, his daugher had bought one of my houses that had a shop that I did car stereo installs, I had this wrapped with red neon. he ended up with after they sold the place and gave it back to me.
    May 29, 2015 1:14 PM - jbigler1986: i'm confused. so you got a free lambo?
    May 29, 2015 1:20 PM - Mike Glass: yup

    May 29, 2015 1:30 PM - BryZad: So on the dual fan bracket just swrew the fans to the bracket be the best
    May 29, 2015 1:32 PM - Mike Glass: or use bondic like jb does..lol
    May 29, 2015 1:36 PM - Mike Kelly: screws are best
    May 29, 2015 1:38 PM - Mike Kelly: also fan shrouds are best if you're using something like radial blower which handles back pressure better
    May 29, 2015 1:41 PM - Mike Glass: who has fans shrouds for radial blowers?
    May 29, 2015 1:42 PM - Mike Glass: well other than Bill
    May 29, 2015 1:42 PM - jbigler1986: WHICH DUAL FAN BRACKET?

    May 29, 2015 1:53 PM - jbigler1986: yeah

    May 29, 2015 1:55 PM - Bill Monroe: it seems to be vase season right now
    May 29, 2015 1:55 PM - Stephen Capistron: i probably should not have just started my monthly backup
    May 29, 2015 1:55 PM - Bill Monroe: they have meds for that now
    May 29, 2015 1:56 PM - Stephen Capistron: and you would know
    May 29, 2015 1:56 PM - Bill Monroe: oh wait, you meant files huh?

    May 29, 2015 1:57 PM - Stephen Capistron: my guess is 10 more minutes, then i get to go sit in friday traffic

    May 29, 2015 2:05 PM - Stephen Capistron: 1 ...
    May 29, 2015 2:05 PM - Mike Glass: only $5K for that beast
    May 29, 2015 2:06 PM - Stephen Capistron: biggest raw material hog is the build plate
    May 29, 2015 2:06 PM - Stephen Capistron: everything else is strip stock / extrusion etc
    May 29, 2015 2:07 PM - Stephen Capistron: so it is pretty cheap to go bigger
    May 29, 2015 2:07 PM - Stephen Capistron: backup is done. LATER
    May 29, 2015 2:08 PM - Mike Glass: l8r
    May 29, 2015 2:19 PM - toy: forgetting the cost of linear components
    May 29, 2015 2:20 PM - toy: just my 330mm tsk mini linear rail was almost 175$
    May 29, 2015 2:23 PM - toy: if that thing is worth 5k im not sure......all depends on the quality of the linear motion components
    May 29, 2015 2:25 PM - Mike Kelly: most of the cost is in the engineering and prototyping they did
    May 29, 2015 2:25 PM - toy: excatly
    May 29, 2015 2:25 PM - Mike Kelly: ugh man, heartburn
    May 29, 2015 2:25 PM - toy: which isnt that hard
    May 29, 2015 2:26 PM - Mike Kelly: hard? no i guess not, just time consuming and building prototypes can be expensive
    May 29, 2015 2:26 PM - Mike Kelly: plus it's easy to over engineer *coughmetalrobocough*
    May 29, 2015 2:26 PM - toy: lol
    May 29, 2015 2:27 PM - toy: its a test platform
    May 29, 2015 2:27 PM - Mike Kelly: testing how much aluminum you can lift?
    May 29, 2015 2:27 PM - toy: and im going for percision parts

    May 29, 2015 2:30 PM - toy: my steps per unit is 400 in the z-direc
    May 29, 2015 2:30 PM - Mike Kelly: that's 10 steps then
    May 29, 2015 2:30 PM - Mike Kelly: a bit tight

    May 29, 2015 2:44 PM - toy: i remember some thread with someone using a servo to switch
    May 29, 2015 2:44 PM - Mike Kelly: Stargrove1
    May 29, 2015 2:44 PM - Mike Kelly: D.E.I.S.S. i believe
    May 29, 2015 2:45 PM - toy: ill have to reread that... and see if anything can be applied to the bondtechs
    May 29, 2015 2:46 PM - Mike Kelly: seems possible to me but you might not get thread engagement
    May 29, 2015 2:48 PM - toy: im gonna look into that.. and report back to you

    May 29, 2015 3:02 PM - toy: http://imgur.com/5BWyEHq does the heater block need to be seated all the way up at all times?
    May 29, 2015 3:02 PM - Mike Kelly: no you can lower it a bit, just sacrificing thermal transfer
    May 29, 2015 3:02 PM - toy: im tryin to figure out my offsets so the nozzle lands at the correct height everytime i home it
    May 29, 2015 3:02 PM - toy: ok thanks
    May 29, 2015 3:03 PM - Mike Kelly: the heatsink gets pretty warm though
    May 29, 2015 3:03 PM - toy: are you using thermal compound?
    May 29, 2015 3:03 PM - Mike Kelly: i don't notice issues because i print abs, might hurt with PLA

    May 29, 2015 3:58 PM - toy: someone needs to get me a kickstarter going lol
    May 29, 2015 3:59 PM - toy: add a filabot on board to make filament on the fly for larger printer
    May 29, 2015 4:02 PM - jbigler1986: Ha. Thought the print was messed up. Didn't realize the gear teeth are printed at an angle. Facepalm
    May 29, 2015 4:03 PM - Bill Monroe: is contemplating.. "greased watermelon"
    May 29, 2015 4:05 PM - jbigler1986: Do it
    May 29, 2015 4:06 PM - Bill Monroe: how 'bout I just use butter.. real damn butter.. cuz butter is good for you?
    May 29, 2015 4:08 PM - jbigler1986: That works
    May 29, 2015 4:11 PM - jbigler1986: Tell 2.0 to hold it
    May 29, 2015 4:24 PM - Bill Monroe: I've already got plans to butter her melons
    May 29, 2015 4:25 PM - Mike Glass: Bill!
    May 29, 2015 4:36 PM - toy: whats the stock robo print area in the x-axis? 228mm?
    May 29, 2015 4:37 PM - jbigler1986: Haha Bill
    May 29, 2015 4:39 PM - jbigler1986: Yeah toy
    May 29, 2015 4:45 PM - toy: cool i maximized my x-axis to squeeze out 250mm
    May 29, 2015 4:48 PM - Mike Kelly: Nice
    May 29, 2015 4:50 PM - Mike Kelly: Jb why would I want a filabot
    May 29, 2015 4:50 PM - Mike Kelly: Also seemecnc has it right using pellets
    May 29, 2015 4:57 PM - jbigler1986: Bc your rep2x fails all of the time
    May 29, 2015 5:23 PM - Mike Kelly: How would making my own filament help?
    May 29, 2015 5:25 PM - toy: whats the ideal height the nozzle should be from the bed in mm?
    May 29, 2015 5:25 PM - jbigler1986: Failed prints? Or does that not grind filament
    May 29, 2015 5:26 PM - toy: is their an exact height?
    May 29, 2015 5:26 PM - jbigler1986: What do you mean toy?
    May 29, 2015 5:27 PM - Mike Kelly: I don't think that one does grinding
    May 29, 2015 5:27 PM - Mike Kelly: The nozzle should touch the bed...
    May 29, 2015 5:27 PM - toy: is their a optimal height or distance that the hot end should be elevated off the bed?
    May 29, 2015 5:28 PM - toy: ive also had a slight offset from the bed
    May 29, 2015 5:28 PM - jbigler1986: Oh well nevermind then MK.
    May 29, 2015 5:29 PM - jbigler1986: Are you using an autolevel?
    May 29, 2015 5:29 PM - toy: no
    May 29, 2015 5:30 PM - toy: i used a dial indicator to to tram it
    May 29, 2015 5:35 PM - jbigler1986: So it's manual leveling?
    May 29, 2015 5:50 PM - jbigler1986: Or you plan on setting the offset and never touching it again?
    May 29, 2015 5:56 PM - toy: yeah
    May 29, 2015 5:56 PM - toy: so when the machine is ALL the way down , the nozzle lands at the correct height
    May 29, 2015 5:58 PM - Mike Kelly: on the bed?
    May 29, 2015 6:00 PM - toy: offset from the bed
    May 29, 2015 6:01 PM - toy: ive read about the distance being around a business card etc...
    May 29, 2015 6:02 PM - toy: ive read about themal expansion of the hotend from cold to hot (200C) is .1mm
    May 29, 2015 6:03 PM - jbigler1986: Yeah not sure the exact height to be honest
    May 29, 2015 6:07 PM - toy: seems no one knows.... ive googled around
    May 29, 2015 6:07 PM - toy: im gonna go with .2mm with thermal expansion to .1mm offset from thed bed...
    May 29, 2015 6:08 PM - jbigler1986: That's because people adjust via software
    May 29, 2015 6:13 PM - jbigler1986: You should make it adjustable via software.
    May 29, 2015 6:16 PM - jbigler1986: Not sure how manually level works though
    May 29, 2015 6:17 PM - Mike Kelly: tighten loosen screws connected to springs to adjust the heights
    May 29, 2015 6:18 PM - Mike Kelly: the nozzle should be touching the bed when you're at home position, that's like printing 101
    May 29, 2015 6:18 PM - Mike Kelly: don't add a physical offset
    May 29, 2015 6:25 PM - jbigler1986: Oh yeah. Homing should be touching the bed
    May 29, 2015 6:26 PM - Mike Kelly: that's what was so annoying with beta printers, if you homed wrong you'd throw your nuts and have to readjust everything
    May 29, 2015 6:38 PM - toy: ok.. what offset does the software use to print
    May 29, 2015 6:45 PM - jbigler1986: Not sure honestly since you don't have autolevel. That's a MK question
    May 29, 2015 6:50 PM - Mike Kelly: you mean the first layer height?
    May 29, 2015 6:51 PM - Mike Kelly: you wouldn't use an offset without a probe

    May 29, 2015 6:52 PM - Mike Glass: time to wire this up [​IMG]
    May 29, 2015 6:54 PM - jbigler1986: You and you plotters
    May 29, 2015 6:55 PM - Mike Glass: gonna be fun for x-mas and easter. and make some cool golf balls for my boss
    May 29, 2015 7:02 PM - Mike Kelly: oh the egg plotter
    May 29, 2015 7:36 PM - Mike Kelly: man this guy on facebook is a piece of work
    May 29, 2015 7:38 PM - Mike Glass: holy crap is it storming here
    May 29, 2015 8:14 PM - Droid: boy you arent kidding mk, I cant stand guys like him
    May 29, 2015 8:20 PM - Mike Kelly: Too much entitlement is a bad thing
    May 29, 2015 8:29 PM - Droid: yup, very bad, I also dont think he read into paypals return policy at all.

    May 29, 2015 at 10:02 PM - TechSupportGo: I think its awesome Barnacules gave a shout out to printed solid. I wonder if it had an impact on sales?
    May 29, 2015 at 10:07 PM - bamhm182: Didn't know he did that
    May 29, 2015 at 10:07 PM - bamhm182: I know there are a handful of his videos recently that I've missed, that's pretty cool
    May 29, 2015 at 10:50 PM - bamhm182: Caught back up on his videos, pretty cool project he is attempting. also cool that he sent a shoutout to printedsolid
    May 30, 2015 at 4:10 AM - jbigler1986: You guys are slow. That's so 2 weeks ago. Lol
    May 30, 2015 at 4:11 AM - jbigler1986: Morning
    May 30, 2015 at 4:37 AM - Bill Monroe: mornin
    May 30, 2015 at 4:45 AM - Printed Solid: or 2 years ago :)
    May 30, 2015 at 4:45 AM - Printed Solid: I've been working with Jerry for a long time.
    May 30, 2015 at 4:45 AM - Bill Monroe: Good Morning Matt
    May 30, 2015 at 4:46 AM - Printed Solid: morning
    May 30, 2015 at 4:46 AM - Bill Monroe: got a question for ya if you have a sec
    May 30, 2015 at 4:46 AM - Printed Solid: sure
    May 30, 2015 at 4:47 AM - Bill Monroe: are you aware of any filament that has decent resistance to UV?
    May 30, 2015 at 4:47 AM - Printed Solid: I'm not really sure. I know ABS and HIPS are terrible for that.
    May 30, 2015 at 4:48 AM - Bill Monroe: ya.. I was wondering about XT
    May 30, 2015 at 4:48 AM - Printed Solid: Not sure about nylon and XT/PET formulations.
    May 30, 2015 at 4:48 AM - Bill Monroe: it's basically what dasani bottles are made if isnt it?
    May 30, 2015 at 4:48 AM - Printed Solid: Water bottles seem to do fine and they have minimal additives
    May 30, 2015 at 4:48 AM - Printed Solid: haha, yeah. we're in sync I guess
    May 30, 2015 at 4:48 AM - Bill Monroe: there ya go
    May 30, 2015 at 4:49 AM - Printed Solid: I actually don't think PLA does too bad with UV, but the heat gives it trouble.
    May 30, 2015 at 4:50 AM - Bill Monroe: i have some projects for outdoors.. I thought about painting them with aluminim powder infused coatings like we do with airplane fabric
    May 30, 2015 at 4:50 AM - Printed Solid: right.
    May 30, 2015 at 4:50 AM - Printed Solid: Yeah, and it's so hot where you are.
    May 30, 2015 at 4:50 AM - Bill Monroe: it's gets cold too
    May 30, 2015 at 4:50 AM - Bill Monroe: :)
    May 30, 2015 at 4:50 AM - Printed Solid: XT is probably a good bet.
    May 30, 2015 at 4:50 AM - Bill Monroe: we get snow!
    May 30, 2015 at 4:51 AM - Printed Solid: Right. I lived in Flagstaff for a while so I understand how weird things are out west.
    May 30, 2015 at 4:51 AM - Bill Monroe: is XT available in silver?
    May 30, 2015 at 4:51 AM - Printed Solid: 14 in the morning. 55 in the afternoon.
    May 30, 2015 at 4:51 AM - Bill Monroe: well, I wouldnt call it wierd :)
    May 30, 2015 at 4:51 AM - Printed Solid: No.
    May 30, 2015 at 4:51 AM - Printed Solid: it's weird if you're from the east coast.
    May 30, 2015 at 4:52 AM - Printed Solid: we don't have that sort of waterski in the morning and snow ski in the afternoon thing going on anywhere :)
    May 30, 2015 at 4:52 AM - Bill Monroe: ya.. if we could get hellacious winds off the atlantic and snow drifts the size of sand dunes... have snow shovels in the grocery stores.. , then we'd be normal :)
    May 30, 2015 at 4:53 AM - Bill Monroe: heck... we snowboard after breakfast, and surf before dinner :)
    May 30, 2015 at 4:53 AM - Bill Monroe: if that's wierd, I'll take it
    May 30, 2015 at 4:54 AM - Printed Solid: yup
    May 30, 2015 at 4:55 AM - Bill Monroe: ok, maybe I'll print a test panel and put it outside for a while.. to paraphrase Game of Thrones... summer is coming
    May 30, 2015 at 4:55 AM - Bill Monroe: it's 58 right now.. was 95 yesterday mid day
    May 30, 2015 at 4:56 AM - Bill Monroe: tuning up the swamp coolers today :)
    May 30, 2015 at 4:58 AM - jbigler1986: We get some 40 degree swings here. Sucks. Need to wear jeans in the morning but sweat in the afternoon
    May 30, 2015 at 4:59 AM - Bill Monroe: ya but there's huge advantages... 2.0 went shopping for summer clothes yesterday.... mega eye candy today

    May 30, 2015 at 6:15 AM - Bill Monroe: hi jb.. it's a mount for an Arduino Mega
    May 30, 2015 at 6:27 AM - jbigler1986: Figured it was a mount for something
    May 30, 2015 at 6:34 AM - Bill Monroe: ya, I included those little bayonet-style pegs like the skicky one have but they just dont print well enough
    May 30, 2015 at 6:39 AM - donhuevo: morning kids
    May 30, 2015 at 6:47 AM - Bill Monroe: don
    May 30, 2015 at 6:51 AM - donhuevo: so the tan walkers are coming
    May 30, 2015 at 6:52 AM - Bill Monroe: amd the red ones too :)
    May 30, 2015 at 6:52 AM - donhuevo: good thing we have the Hoff on that wall

    May 30, 2015 at 7:04 AM - Sims Reaper: Good morning
    May 30, 2015 at 7:04 AM - donhuevo: nobody liked my Game of Thrones meets Baywatch joke
    May 30, 2015 at 7:04 AM - Bill Monroe: i was still groking it
    May 30, 2015 at 7:05 AM - Mike Glass: I get it now..took a sec
    May 30, 2015 at 7:05 AM - Bill Monroe: too cerebral this early :)
    May 30, 2015 at 7:06 AM - donhuevo: I don't know, I'm smelling a Super Bowl Doritos commercial
    May 30, 2015 at 7:06 AM - Mike Glass: early, day is half way over
    May 30, 2015 at 7:07 AM - Bill Monroe: if you guys are going to be in San Diego the weekend of June 20, you're welcome to watch the airshow from my hanger
    May 30, 2015 at 7:08 AM - Mike Glass: I was suppose to be there next weekend and the next but had other things come up.
    May 30, 2015 at 7:09 AM - Mike Glass: 7-11th is the Cisco Live, really wanted to go this year
    May 30, 2015 at 7:10 AM - Bill Monroe: i push the plane and the Model A out, setup a BBQ, lots of shade, WiFi..
    May 30, 2015 at 7:11 AM - Bill Monroe: and I'm a LOT closer to the show then the usual crowd area
    May 30, 2015 at 7:12 AM - Bill Monroe: i think I have a pic from last year
    May 30, 2015 at 7:18 AM - Mike Glass: Thunderbirds are in Denver this weekend, Friend was taking pics of them yesterday flying around.
    May 30, 2015 at 7:26 AM - Bill Monroe: found it
    May 30, 2015 at 7:26 AM - Bill Monroe: [​IMG]
    May 30, 2015 at 7:37 AM - donhuevo: nice!
    May 30, 2015 at 7:38 AM - Bill Monroe: :) thanks.. both the truck and plane are 1959
    May 30, 2015 at 7:38 AM - Bill Monroe: although, they both have been modernized, the truck especially
    May 30, 2015 at 7:41 AM - donhuevo: my dad's hobby... [​IMG]
    May 30, 2015 at 7:41 AM - Bill Monroe: sweet
    May 30, 2015 at 7:49 AM - donhuevo: Four years and a homemade body rotisserie later...
    May 30, 2015 at 7:53 AM - Bill Monroe: mine went through a 9 year epic
    May 30, 2015 at 7:54 AM - Bill Monroe: I bought it in 1980, stock and in good shape.. by 2003 it was tired and rusty
    May 30, 2015 at 7:54 AM - donhuevo: looks better than ever now
    May 30, 2015 at 7:54 AM - Bill Monroe: loaned it to a high school auto shop class.. they stripped it to the bones
    May 30, 2015 at 7:55 AM - Bill Monroe: then auto shop was cancelled in the school system, the shop closed, and i got it back in parts
    May 30, 2015 at 7:55 AM - Bill Monroe: but they had completely fixed the body and painted it to primer.. better than a pro would do
    May 30, 2015 at 7:55 AM - Bill Monroe: they lost the seat and instrument cluster
    May 30, 2015 at 7:56 AM - Bill Monroe: wheels too
    May 30, 2015 at 7:56 AM - Bill Monroe: BUT, I got a full mustang front clip and a crate windsor motor NEW
    May 30, 2015 at 7:57 AM - donhuevo: sweet!
    May 30, 2015 at 7:57 AM - Bill Monroe: so.. 9 years of part time puttering, some new white face guages, F100 seat from junkyard...
    May 30, 2015 at 7:58 AM - donhuevo: worth the wait
    May 30, 2015 at 7:59 AM - Bill Monroe: it is SO driveable.. ohya, tranny wouldnt mount to the windsor so now instead of 4 on the tree.. its a 5 speed auto
    May 30, 2015 at 7:59 AM - Bill Monroe: power steering and airco (from the same truck that donated the seat)
    May 30, 2015 at 8:00 AM - Bill Monroe: all leather seat, done like a ball glove with baseball stitching.. in Tijuana :)
    May 30, 2015 at 8:00 AM - Bill Monroe: 2.0 drives it a lot.. she loves it
    May 30, 2015 at 8:00 AM - donhuevo: plenty of cruises in your area?
    May 30, 2015 at 8:00 AM - Bill Monroe: and it's fun to watch the guys at the gas station when she pulls in

    May 30, 2015 at 8:05 AM - Mike Glass: looking for aliens with that antenna
    May 30, 2015 at 8:06 AM - daniel871: In a manner of speaking. Reeled in a pike last weekend. That was a surprise.
    May 30, 2015 at 8:06 AM - Bill Monroe: when I go fishing, not only do I not catch anything, no one else does
    May 30, 2015 at 8:06 AM - Bill Monroe: i am the fishing luck killer
    May 30, 2015 at 8:07 AM - Mike Glass: I am too bill
    May 30, 2015 at 8:07 AM - daniel871: Not used to seeing fish with teeth.
    May 30, 2015 at 8:09 AM - daniel871: Almost left the robo running a 36 hour print while I was here but figured with my luck itd fail while I was here.
    May 30, 2015 at 8:09 AM - daniel871: Vending machine body.

    May 30, 2015 at 8:10 AM - daniel871: Come home to a ball of pla wrapped around the hotend? No thanks.
    May 30, 2015 at 8:11 AM - Bill Monroe: my machine is now outperforming my freind's makerbot
    May 30, 2015 at 8:11 AM - Bill Monroe: he's pissed :)
    May 30, 2015 at 8:24 AM - jbigler1986: Haha
    May 30, 2015 at 8:25 AM - jbigler1986: Don't be afraid. It can handle it
    May 30, 2015 at 8:41 AM - Printed Solid: which makerbot? Because I have a tree stump in my back yard that outperforms anything with a smart exturder.
    May 30, 2015 at 8:49 AM - Bill Monroe: i'm not sure.. but he and I both printed the same .stl and the results were clear
    May 30, 2015 at 8:51 AM - jbigler1986: Makernot. They only print good if you hang a $100 bill over it
    May 30, 2015 at 8:51 AM - Sims Reaper: Haha
    May 30, 2015 at 8:53 AM - Sims Reaper: J, thanks for trying to help with my Arduino question btw. I appreciate it
    May 30, 2015 at 8:53 AM - jbigler1986: Did you get it fixed d yet
    May 30, 2015 at 8:54 AM - Sims Reaper: No, but I had limited time to work on it. Tonight I'm going to uninstall Arduino and try an hourly build.
    May 30, 2015 at 8:54 AM - Sims Reaper: It's not a huge deal but would sure be nice to get the board temp up and be able to install an LCD
    May 30, 2015 at 8:55 AM - donhuevo: what's the issue?
    May 30, 2015 at 8:55 AM - Sims Reaper: The firmware won't compile. Keeps erroring
    May 30, 2015 at 8:56 AM - donhuevo: where did you find the firmware?
    May 30, 2015 at 8:56 AM - donhuevo: and which lcd?
    May 30, 2015 at 8:56 AM - donhuevo: and what's the error
    May 30, 2015 at 8:56 AM - Sims Reaper: Off the website
    May 30, 2015 at 8:57 AM - Sims Reaper: The only thing I am trying to do now is raise the bed temp a bit and fix the z-axis scaling. But I want to install an lcd if I can get this to work.
    May 30, 2015 at 8:58 AM - donhuevo: what's the error
    May 30, 2015 at 8:59 AM - Sims Reaper: I started a troubleshooting thread that has the actual copied errors, but they are "multiple definition" variables if I remember correctly
    May 30, 2015 at 9:02 AM - donhuevo: looks like you have two copies of the ultralcd.cpp file in the folder
    May 30, 2015 at 9:09 AM - Sims Reaper: Hmmm. I'll look for that tonight. Maybe try deleting all the firmware files and starting from scratch
    May 30, 2015 at 9:09 AM - Sims Reaper: Thanks don
    May 30, 2015 at 9:09 AM - jbigler1986: That's a good idea
    May 30, 2015 at 9:09 AM - donhuevo: yep
    May 30, 2015 at 9:10 AM - donhuevo: it kept mentioning ultralcd.cpp and ultralcd.cpp.o
    May 30, 2015 at 9:10 AM - jbigler1986: Don how did that golf tee work
    May 30, 2015 at 9:10 AM - donhuevo: I haven't hit off it yet. Still afraid
    May 30, 2015 at 9:12 AM - donhuevo: it's definitely flexible though. I see it bending instead of breaking
    May 30, 2015 at 10:05 AM - Mike Kelly: howdy
    May 30, 2015 at 10:05 AM - donhuevo: Miguel!
    May 30, 2015 at 10:06 AM - Mike Kelly: hola
    May 30, 2015 at 10:06 AM - donhuevo: building anything fun?
    May 30, 2015 at 10:12 AM - Mike Kelly: well i'm printing that 22RE engine at work
    May 30, 2015 at 10:13 AM - donhuevo: toyota?
    May 30, 2015 at 10:13 AM - Mike Kelly: right
    May 30, 2015 at 10:13 AM - donhuevo: my very old Celica had a 22r in it
    May 30, 2015 at 10:13 AM - Mike Kelly: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:644933
    May 30, 2015 at 10:14 AM - Mike Kelly: you saw the 5 speed i made for it right?
    May 30, 2015 at 10:14 AM - Mike Kelly: http://www.thingiverse.com/make:137546
    May 30, 2015 at 10:15 AM - donhuevo: no sir
    May 30, 2015 at 10:15 AM - donhuevo: holy shit. you've been busy
    May 30, 2015 at 10:16 AM - Mike Kelly: i've been working on that since like... february
    May 30, 2015 at 10:17 AM - donhuevo: how did I miss that
    May 30, 2015 at 10:19 AM - Mike Kelly: i guess i haven't talked about it much
    May 30, 2015 at 10:19 AM - Mike Kelly: you'd need to follow me on thingiverse probably
    May 30, 2015 at 10:19 AM - donhuevo: so that's where the party was
    May 30, 2015 at 10:24 AM - Mike Kelly: i made it on the rep2x so i didn't post it here much
    May 30, 2015 at 10:24 AM - donhuevo: I certainly don't care if you're cheating on your robo
    May 30, 2015 at 10:27 AM - Mike Kelly: heh
    May 30, 2015 at 10:32 AM - donhuevo: I'm fiddling with the geared Nema11
    May 30, 2015 at 10:33 AM - Mike Kelly: what ya gonna use it for
    May 30, 2015 at 10:34 AM - donhuevo: see if I can come up with a compact cold end for it
    May 30, 2015 at 10:35 AM - Mike Kelly: gonna go direct?
    May 30, 2015 at 10:35 AM - donhuevo: never
    May 30, 2015 at 10:35 AM - Mike Kelly: so why bother?
    May 30, 2015 at 10:36 AM - donhuevo: because I have one and need to give it a reason to continue to live here
    May 30, 2015 at 10:39 AM - Mike Kelly: definitely need to go direct
    May 30, 2015 at 10:39 AM - donhuevo: it was too much trouble getting away from direct. I'm not going back and you can't make me
    May 30, 2015 at 10:41 AM - Mike Kelly: OH YES I CAN
    May 30, 2015 at 10:42 AM - Mike Kelly: think of all the flexibles you could print!
    May 30, 2015 at 10:42 AM - Mike Kelly: i bet you could get 120mm/s from direct
    May 30, 2015 at 10:42 AM - donhuevo: why can't I print flexible with my bowden?
    May 30, 2015 at 10:48 AM - Mike Kelly: it's more difficult
    May 30, 2015 at 10:48 AM - Mike Glass: Hey Mike
    May 30, 2015 at 10:49 AM - Mike Kelly: hey mike
    May 30, 2015 at 10:50 AM - Mike Glass: sketching out my beer caddy
    May 30, 2015 at 10:51 AM - jbigler1986: party time
    May 30, 2015 at 10:51 AM - Mike Kelly: sweet
    May 30, 2015 at 10:51 AM - Mike Glass: im so slow
    May 30, 2015 at 10:52 AM - jbigler1986: i had to restart the first gears last night after almost 3 hours in. My son shut off the computer that the printer was connected to
    May 30, 2015 at 10:52 AM - Mike Kelly: ouch
    May 30, 2015 at 10:52 AM - Mike Glass: :eek:
    May 30, 2015 at 10:52 AM - jbigler1986: was printing from lcd but it paused the print and I couldn't restart it
    May 30, 2015 at 10:53 AM - Mike Kelly: :( ouch
    May 30, 2015 at 10:53 AM - jbigler1986: oh well. shit happens
    May 30, 2015 at 10:54 AM - Mike Kelly: i think i have enough footage for the video now
    May 30, 2015 at 10:54 AM - Mike Kelly: need to start editing
    May 30, 2015 at 10:54 AM - jbigler1986: that's always tedious
    May 30, 2015 at 10:54 AM - Mike Kelly: yup
    May 30, 2015 at 10:55 AM - jbigler1986: got a good gpu to help render it?
    May 30, 2015 at 10:56 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah my pc is ok
    May 30, 2015 at 11:00 AM - Mike Kelly: it's no barnacules pc but it'll do
    May 30, 2015 at 11:06 AM - Mike Glass: is there a way to change what is top and what is bottom in SW?
    May 30, 2015 at 11:07 AM - donhuevo: rotate the object?
    May 30, 2015 at 11:07 AM - Mike Glass: yea I guess

    May 30, 2015 at 11:07 AM - Mike Kelly: you can edit the sketch plane
    May 30, 2015 at 11:07 AM - donhuevo: turn your monitor upside down?
    May 30, 2015 at 11:07 AM - Mike Kelly: that's the best way i've found of doing it
    May 30, 2015 at 11:07 AM - Mike Kelly: but it's tricky....
    May 30, 2015 at 11:07 AM - Mike Kelly: especially if you have a lot of plane dependant sketches
    May 30, 2015 at 11:09 AM - Mike Glass: I dont know why all my stuff gets built upside down..lol
    May 30, 2015 at 11:09 AM - Mike Kelly: gotta predict that
    May 30, 2015 at 11:10 AM - Mike Kelly: man i think i need to do 2 videos otherwise it's gonna be like 20 minutes
    May 30, 2015 at 11:30 AM - donhuevo: wow.
    May 30, 2015 at 11:33 AM - Mike Kelly: "The speed at which the national labs can work is absolutely amazing"
    May 30, 2015 at 11:33 AM - Mike Kelly: I'd agree with that statement, though not the way he's probably thinking
    May 30, 2015 at 12:20 PM - donhuevo: this was cool...
    May 30, 2015 at 12:23 PM - Mike Kelly: mike rowes a badass
    May 30, 2015 at 12:25 PM - Mike Glass: OK how do I make an assembly if they are on the same plane. doh
    May 30, 2015 at 12:26 PM - donhuevo: if you were in autocad, I'd have an answer
    May 30, 2015 at 12:27 PM - Mike Glass: Your a non SW user. shame on you DOn
    May 30, 2015 at 12:28 PM - donhuevo: I never have to worry about what plane I'm on or connecting flights either
    May 30, 2015 at 12:28 PM - Mike Glass: boo
    May 30, 2015 at 12:29 PM - donhuevo: drew this today in my crappy autocad... [​IMG]
    May 30, 2015 at 12:30 PM - jbigler1986: How is Autocad compared to SW?
    May 30, 2015 at 12:31 PM - donhuevo: I can't say. I've been happy with autocad so I never bothered to try SW
    May 30, 2015 at 12:31 PM - Mike Glass: ah I found it
    May 30, 2015 at 12:32 PM - jbigler1986: Maybe a MK question
    May 30, 2015 at 12:32 PM - jbigler1986: What is the learning curve on it
    May 30, 2015 at 12:33 PM - donhuevo: I'd say it's almost as wide and deep as photoshop
    May 30, 2015 at 12:34 PM - jbigler1986: Interesting. Photoshop can be a real pain sometimes
    May 30, 2015 at 12:35 PM - toy: i would take inventor over SW if u want to compare apples
    May 30, 2015 at 12:40 PM - jbigler1986: Is there a difference between Autocad and inventor
    May 30, 2015 at 12:41 PM - toy: big time
    May 30, 2015 at 12:41 PM - donhuevo: https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090108081853AA2Bx5X
    May 30, 2015 at 12:43 PM - toy: SW isnt dassault main product, inventor is autodesk main product
    May 30, 2015 at 12:44 PM - toy: to many featues with SW will take away from their top tier prodct...imo
    May 30, 2015 at 12:46 PM - jbigler1986: I might download it and give it a try
    May 30, 2015 at 12:46 PM - toy: life changing.... especially if u use autocad
    May 30, 2015 at 12:47 PM - toy: i think autocad still uses layers?
    May 30, 2015 at 12:48 PM - jbigler1986: Never have. Just SW and still a noob at that
    May 30, 2015 at 12:48 PM - donhuevo: what's a layer?
    May 30, 2015 at 12:48 PM - toy: ask your printer that one don
    May 30, 2015 at 12:48 PM - donhuevo: haha
    May 30, 2015 at 12:49 PM - jbigler1986: They aren't real
    May 30, 2015 at 12:49 PM - toy: if u ever want to learnn new software i would go with rhino
    May 30, 2015 at 12:51 PM - jbigler1986: Never heard of that one
    May 30, 2015 at 12:51 PM - toy: download rhino
    May 30, 2015 at 12:52 PM - toy: and then if u want to be a complete badass learn the grasshopper plug in for rhino
    May 30, 2015 at 12:52 PM - donhuevo: downloading inventor now.
    May 30, 2015 at 12:53 PM - donhuevo: I want to see how similar/different the tools are
    May 30, 2015 at 12:53 PM - jbigler1986: Let me see if I can find a good rhino download
    May 30, 2015 at 12:53 PM - toy: pb
    May 30, 2015 at 12:53 PM - jbigler1986: Yeah only like 4 seeders
    May 30, 2015 at 12:54 PM - toy: hmm i mightbe able to put in my dropbox...sry dont use drop box much
    May 30, 2015 at 12:54 PM - donhuevo: 6.68Gb and I already have 25% downloaded
    May 30, 2015 at 12:54 PM - toy: wow
    May 30, 2015 at 12:54 PM - toy: inventor 2016? 2015?
    May 30, 2015 at 12:54 PM - jbigler1986: It's from 2006. Holy hell
    May 30, 2015 at 12:55 PM - donhuevo: 2014 64bit
    May 30, 2015 at 12:55 PM - toy: im using 2015 64 bit
    May 30, 2015 at 12:55 PM - donhuevo: my autocad is 2014 as well
    May 30, 2015 at 12:56 PM - jbigler1986: Rhinoceros 5 or rhino 3d?
    May 30, 2015 at 12:56 PM - toy: rhino 5
    May 30, 2015 at 12:56 PM - jbigler1986: K
    May 30, 2015 at 12:58 PM - donhuevo: changing the number of triangles has made a huge difference
    May 30, 2015 at 12:59 PM - toy: rhino is great at that =)
    May 30, 2015 at 12:59 PM - donhuevo: I already saved the maximum in my main template so everytime I start a new drawing now it's maxxed
    May 30, 2015 at 1:00 PM - toy: once u get rhino, look for the grasshopper pluggin and tspline pluggin
    May 30, 2015 at 1:00 PM - jbigler1986: Rhino or inventor. What would you suggest
    May 30, 2015 at 1:01 PM - toy: both
    May 30, 2015 at 1:02 PM - jbigler1986: Lol. I can do that
    May 30, 2015 at 1:02 PM - toy: inventor for mechanical stuff, rhino to add all them nice surfacess
    May 30, 2015 at 1:12 PM - toy: ugh.. one of my planetry gear steppers is trippn
    May 30, 2015 at 1:15 PM - jbigler1986: Did you get the offset figured out
    May 30, 2015 at 1:17 PM - Stephen Capistron: If you are looking for a different CAD experience CREO elements direct is something to look at.
    May 30, 2015 at 1:24 PM - jbigler1986: It would be nice to find something that has like a freehand sketch
    May 30, 2015 at 1:27 PM - Stephen Capistron: Like to draw on a tablet?
    May 30, 2015 at 1:28 PM - Stephen Capistron: That version of CREO doesn't work like SW. There is no history tree, only a part tree. It encourages just eye balling some stuff, and easy tweaks by pushing and pulling on surfaces
    May 30, 2015 at 1:29 PM - toy: u could draw it by hand... import it as a background and then nurbs over it
    May 30, 2015 at 1:29 PM - jbigler1986: Kinda like tinkercad SC?
    May 30, 2015 at 1:30 PM - jbigler1986: Kind of free form?
    May 30, 2015 at 1:32 PM - toy: can i overide the cold extrusion warning in repeteier host?
    May 30, 2015 at 1:32 PM - toy: for testing?
    May 30, 2015 at 1:33 PM - Stephen Capistron: Much more involved than tinker cad, but it is more free form than SW. Say you extruded a sketch some distance and a bit later you want to change it, all you have to do is pick the face and pull. No going over to Extrude## and selecting modify
    May 30, 2015 at 1:33 PM - Stephen Capistron: Change the firmware to a min temp of -50
    May 30, 2015 at 1:36 PM - toy: will try thx
    May 30, 2015 at 1:53 PM - toy: damn Chinese kids dont know how to make a proper connector =\
    May 30, 2015 at 1:55 PM - toy: my 6 year old niece can make a better connector, i need to put her to work
    May 30, 2015 at 1:57 PM - Mike Glass: ok didnt know you coudl do your whole car.
    May 30, 2015 at 2:04 PM - Mike Kelly: there my house now has 90% less cable wires on it
    May 30, 2015 at 2:04 PM - Mike Kelly: and comcast techs are a bunch of idiots
    May 30, 2015 at 2:05 PM - Mike Kelly: whoever ran the cable for my house doubled up this line
    May 30, 2015 at 2:05 PM - Mike Glass: double the speed!
    May 30, 2015 at 2:05 PM - Mike Kelly: totally, that's how it works right? twice the cable length = twice the speed
    May 30, 2015 at 2:06 PM - Mike Kelly: so i removed all that shit and like 3 other long wires that were cut on one end
    May 30, 2015 at 2:06 PM - Mike Kelly: nice to have all that cable gone
    May 30, 2015 at 2:08 PM - Mike Kelly: also to answer your question earlier mike, you use mates
    May 30, 2015 at 2:10 PM - Mike Glass: yes, I think I got it all figured out, now just mating them, how is that it will automatically make a pocket into the other mate?
    May 30, 2015 at 2:12 PM - Mike Glass: [​IMG]
    May 30, 2015 at 2:13 PM - Mike Kelly: you need to have the pocket cut in already
    May 30, 2015 at 2:13 PM - Stephen Capistron: SW have a boolean operation to make it one part?
    May 30, 2015 at 2:14 PM - Mike Kelly: he's designing for manufacture
    May 30, 2015 at 2:15 PM - Stephen Capistron: oh nevermind
    May 30, 2015 at 2:15 PM - Stephen Capistron: and now i'm going to double back

    May 30, 2015 at 2:16 PM - Stephen Capistron: usually one of the boolean options is to remove material with a "tool"
    May 30, 2015 at 2:16 PM - Stephen Capistron: where the tool is another part
    May 30, 2015 at 2:16 PM - Mike Kelly: i mean you can do things like copy sketches from one part to the other
    May 30, 2015 at 2:17 PM - Mike Glass: thats what im doing now
    May 30, 2015 at 2:18 PM - Mike Kelly: just be sure you're editing the part and not just cutting in the assembly
    May 30, 2015 at 2:29 PM - jbigler1986: Man inventory pro takes forever to install
    May 30, 2015 at 2:30 PM - Bill Monroe: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/bills-lab
    May 30, 2015 at 2:33 PM - donhuevo: so my putting cup stl went from 171kb to 2mb when I maxed out the number of triangles.
    May 30, 2015 at 2:33 PM - Mike Kelly: lol
    May 30, 2015 at 2:34 PM - donhuevo: printing one now. It's just smooth.
    May 30, 2015 at 2:35 PM - Mike Kelly: rad
    May 30, 2015 at 2:35 PM - Mike Kelly: i bet the gcode for that is huge as well
    May 30, 2015 at 2:35 PM - jbigler1986: How is that video coming along
    May 30, 2015 at 2:39 PM - WayUpNorthMN: WHat do you guys think about Hatchbox Filament?
    May 30, 2015 at 2:39 PM - Mike Kelly: I got all the clips in but Im trying not to waste the good weather inside
    May 30, 2015 at 2:40 PM - donhuevo: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/donhuevo-s-robo3d
    May 30, 2015 at 2:40 PM - Mike Kelly: I'll work on it tonight while I watch the Anaheim Chicago game
    May 30, 2015 at 2:44 PM - WayUpNorthMN: Dang, that Robo is really moving!
    May 30, 2015 at 2:45 PM - donhuevo: I just bought some hatchbox PLA. JB loves it
    May 30, 2015 at 2:46 PM - WayUpNorthMN: Is it any good, quality wise? I have been buying nothing but ColorFabb
    May 30, 2015 at 2:46 PM - Bill Monroe: hatchbox works well
    May 30, 2015 at 2:46 PM - Bill Monroe: Shaxon is good too
    May 30, 2015 at 2:47 PM - donhuevo: I haven't opened mine yet but it's so much cheaper than MatterHackers
    May 30, 2015 at 2:48 PM - WayUpNorthMN: Would anyone know how to set the acceleration on the Robo in the Arduino interface?
    May 30, 2015 at 2:48 PM - Bill Monroe: you have to make a change to the firmware
    May 30, 2015 at 2:48 PM - donhuevo: acceleration settings are in the configuration.h file
    May 30, 2015 at 2:49 PM - donhuevo: editable w/ Arduino software
    May 30, 2015 at 2:49 PM - donhuevo: and a copy of the firmware
    May 30, 2015 at 2:49 PM - WayUpNorthMN: How would I go about getting that? I am a noob when it comes to Arduino work.
    May 30, 2015 at 2:49 PM - donhuevo: software here... http://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software
    May 30, 2015 at 2:50 PM - donhuevo: firmware to edit is another matter.
    May 30, 2015 at 2:50 PM - donhuevo: one for MfnK
    May 30, 2015 at 2:50 PM - WayUpNorthMN: What are you making anyway, don?
    May 30, 2015 at 2:50 PM - donhuevo: a putting practice cup
    May 30, 2015 at 2:51 PM - WayUpNorthMN: Cool :)
    May 30, 2015 at 2:51 PM - donhuevo: I just figured out how to create stl's with the maximum number of triangles in Autocad so I had to print one
    May 30, 2015 at 2:52 PM - Bill Monroe: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/bills-lab
    May 30, 2015 at 2:53 PM - WayUpNorthMN: SO how would I open the Configuration.h file in this software?
    May 30, 2015 at 2:54 PM - donhuevo: you need a copy of the firmware next. I'm not sure how to point you at what's appropriate for your printer
    May 30, 2015 at 2:54 PM - Bill Monroe: it's on the robo site, but there are SO many variants out there
    May 30, 2015 at 2:54 PM - donhuevo: exactly
    May 30, 2015 at 2:55 PM - Bill Monroe: be careful MN, if you dont know what you're doing, messing with the firmware could leave your machine unable to work
    May 30, 2015 at 2:56 PM - donhuevo: if Mike was around, he'd be able to get you sorted
    May 30, 2015 at 2:57 PM - Bill Monroe: one unfortuate thing about firmware is, you cant save what's on your machine now, changes are a one-way trip
    May 30, 2015 at 2:57 PM - Bill Monroe: and btw, I'm not aware of changing the acceleration from the factory setting having any positive effect
    May 30, 2015 at 2:57 PM - donhuevo: I am
    May 30, 2015 at 2:57 PM - Bill Monroe: indeed
    May 30, 2015 at 2:57 PM - donhuevo: X&Y values are way to high from the factory IMO
    May 30, 2015 at 2:58 PM - Bill Monroe: you made your more gradual?
    May 30, 2015 at 2:58 PM - donhuevo: yep. dropped them down to 800 I believe
    May 30, 2015 at 2:58 PM - Bill Monroe: and no adverse effect or corners or edges?
    May 30, 2015 at 2:59 PM - Bill Monroe: or=on
    May 30, 2015 at 2:59 PM - donhuevo: nope. Direction changes aren't as violent as they were
    May 30, 2015 at 2:59 PM - Stephen Capistron: if anything it will impact bridging
    May 30, 2015 at 2:59 PM - Bill Monroe: ya, that's obvious, but I havbe to wonder about Marlin's ability you adjust flow rates
    May 30, 2015 at 3:00 PM - Bill Monroe: to adjust
    May 30, 2015 at 3:00 PM - donhuevo: it's working for me
    May 30, 2015 at 3:00 PM - Bill Monroe: cool
    May 30, 2015 at 3:00 PM - donhuevo: sounds robotic not pinball
    May 30, 2015 at 3:01 PM - Bill Monroe: heh
    May 30, 2015 at 3:01 PM - Bill Monroe: I'm thinking about using smartmotors on my next machine, just to eliminate all motor noise
    May 30, 2015 at 3:02 PM - donhuevo: sounds pricey
    May 30, 2015 at 3:02 PM - Bill Monroe: I already have them but ya, new it would be prohibitive
    May 30, 2015 at 3:03 PM - Bill Monroe: and a waste of their capability
    May 30, 2015 at 3:03 PM - Bill Monroe: but they are absolutely quiet
    May 30, 2015 at 3:16 PM - donhuevo: so the 64bit Inventor iso I found turned out to be a mislabeled 32bit. grr...
    May 30, 2015 at 3:17 PM - WayUpNorthMN: Robo has the Mega, correct?
    May 30, 2015 at 3:17 PM - Bill Monroe: yes
    May 30, 2015 at 3:17 PM - WayUpNorthMN: kk
    May 30, 2015 at 3:23 PM - WayUpNorthMN: Why am I having troubles uploading the firmwre
    May 30, 2015 at 3:24 PM - donhuevo: what's it telling you?
    May 30, 2015 at 3:24 PM - Stephen Capistron: Do you have other soft connected to the printer?
    May 30, 2015 at 3:24 PM - WayUpNorthMN: avrdude: stk500v2_getsync(): timeout communicating with programmer
    May 30, 2015 at 3:25 PM - WayUpNorthMN: The printer is on, and Cura is on, but not connected to the printer.
    May 30, 2015 at 3:25 PM - jbigler1986: Fucking justpla spool was tangled
    May 30, 2015 at 3:25 PM - Sims Reaper: Have to disconnect all printing software such as matter control
    May 30, 2015 at 3:26 PM - Sims Reaper: Try to check your com port setting MN
    May 30, 2015 at 3:26 PM - jbigler1986: 2 tangles in the last week. Bull crap
    May 30, 2015 at 3:26 PM - donhuevo: if Windows: Control Panel->Device Manager->Ports(COM & LPT)
    May 30, 2015 at 3:27 PM - WayUpNorthMN: On COM1, it just sits there for a good minute before timing out, COM3, it is an immediate fail.
    May 30, 2015 at 3:28 PM - Sims Reaper: What version of arduino are you using? I have been having issues myself, different though, but have spent a lot of time on troubleshooting forums lately
    May 30, 2015 at 3:29 PM - donhuevo: every time you install a new version of arduino and allow it to replace the driver, you get a new com port
    May 30, 2015 at 3:29 PM - Sims Reaper: HeyI read today that the new 1.6.4 has some pretty big bugs and the hourly build is recommended. Or using a previous build
    May 30, 2015 at 3:30 PM - WayUpNorthMN: Yep, I got it to work. Just a stupid mistake. I tried COM3 while it was still connected to Cura, and that ended up being the right one. lol
    May 30, 2015 at 3:30 PM - Sims Reaper: Excellent!
    May 30, 2015 at 3:31 PM - WayUpNorthMN: Man, I am loving this new autoleveling. Like twice as fast.
    May 30, 2015 at 3:33 PM - donhuevo: sims, how's your issue?
    May 30, 2015 at 3:33 PM - donhuevo: or should I call you reaper?
    May 30, 2015 at 3:34 PM - Sims Reaper: I'm still at work. Lol. Just a slow day so I'm shadowing the forums and browsing filament shops in Canada
    May 30, 2015 at 3:34 PM - donhuevo: ah
    May 30, 2015 at 3:34 PM - Sims Reaper: Sims is good :)
    May 30, 2015 at 3:35 PM - toy: MK , did u press fit the threads for set screw on the bondtechs?
    May 30, 2015 at 3:36 PM - WayUpNorthMN: What did you guys set your acceleration to? What is a good speed?
    May 30, 2015 at 3:38 PM - donhuevo: #define DEFAULT_MAX_ACCELERATION {800,800,100,10000}
    May 30, 2015 at 3:38 PM - donhuevo: #define DEFAULT_ACCELERATION 800
    May 30, 2015 at 3:38 PM - donhuevo: #define DEFAULT_RETRACT_ACCELERATION 3000
    May 30, 2015 at 3:38 PM - donhuevo: that's what I went with
    May 30, 2015 at 3:39 PM - donhuevo: xy jerk should be 20-30% of your typical printing speed
    May 30, 2015 at 3:41 PM - WayUpNorthMN: How do you guys seal in the heat on the E3D V6? I get to a certain part of the print where the parts fans are on and I get an error that the print head cooled too much.
    May 30, 2015 at 3:42 PM - donhuevo: lower your fan speed?

    May 30, 2015 at 3:46 PM - Stephen Capistron: Put in a shroud or masking tape over the top section of the fan
    May 30, 2015 at 4:17 PM - Droid: for abs I dont run a fan at all, for pla I have a fan shroud
    May 30, 2015 at 4:20 PM - Speakr4thedead: This may be a long shot but anybody here have an idea of what would cause these kind of exceptions when trying to compile firmware? https://drive.google.com/open?id=0By9horUgQS-QNnRySGVaeTNxR1k&authuser=0
    May 30, 2015 at 4:21 PM - Speakr4thedead: getting those same errors with all versions of Arduino except 1.6.4 where it just freezes up instead
    May 30, 2015 at 4:26 PM - donhuevo: this looks like exactly the same issue Sims had but with a different file. Any chance you have a file in your directory labeled SdBaseFile.cpp.o?
    May 30, 2015 at 4:28 PM - Speakr4thedead: nothing with a .o at the end
    May 30, 2015 at 4:28 PM - Speakr4thedead: I'll re dl the file from the robo3d wiki
    May 30, 2015 at 4:29 PM - donhuevo: the errors are saying it's finding functions or whatever that are defined twice like in a file called SdBaseFile.cpp and SdBaseFile.cpp.o
    May 30, 2015 at 4:31 PM - Speakr4thedead: yeah, I see. I'm just not sure why it's thinking that. I dont see any extra files hidden or anything. I may need to do a restart or something I guess
    May 30, 2015 at 4:31 PM - donhuevo: can you give me the firmware link you're using?
    May 30, 2015 at 4:32 PM - Speakr4thedead: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B10g8oo2ZwvrSFVMQ2FydU5ZNGM/view
    May 30, 2015 at 4:33 PM - Speakr4thedead: I tried compiling on 1.6.4 with no luck, but I saw someone in here say that there might be issues with the build, so I tried with 1.6.5 hourly and also with 1.0.5r2 and started seeing those errors
    May 30, 2015 at 4:36 PM - Sims Reaper: I've been having very similar issues Speaker. If you find a work around please post it back here or pm me. I will do the same if I figure it out
    May 30, 2015 at 4:36 PM - Speakr4thedead: will do
    May 30, 2015 at 4:36 PM - Sims Reaper: Awesome
    May 30, 2015 at 4:38 PM - donhuevo: I just compiled that download with 1.6.4 and it went w/out errors
    May 30, 2015 at 4:38 PM - donhuevo: scratching my head now
    May 30, 2015 at 4:38 PM - Speakr4thedead: I was afraid of that...I'm wondering if it's my board
    May 30, 2015 at 4:38 PM - donhuevo: doubt it
    May 30, 2015 at 4:38 PM - Speakr4thedead: no issues with printing at all though
    May 30, 2015 at 4:39 PM - donhuevo: try just using the checkmark in Arduino. It'll 'test' compile the files
    May 30, 2015 at 4:39 PM - Speakr4thedead: yeah that's what i've been doing today since I had no luck actually uploading yesterday
    May 30, 2015 at 4:40 PM - donhuevo: that's not firmware I actually want to upload to my printer
    May 30, 2015 at 4:43 PM - Speakr4thedead: ultralcd.cpp.o:C:\Users\Finn\AppData\Local\Temp\build8391428998283303274.tmp/ultralcd.cpp:709: first defined here
    May 30, 2015 at 4:43 PM - Speakr4thedead: maybe I should delete these temp files
    May 30, 2015 at 4:45 PM - donhuevo: so you've unzipped(obviously) and you're usint the auto_level_7_17_8mm.ino file to open arduino software
    May 30, 2015 at 4:45 PM - Speakr4thedead: well that at least changed the error
    May 30, 2015 at 4:46 PM - Speakr4thedead: yep
    May 30, 2015 at 4:47 PM - Sims Reaper: Have you tired re-dowlnloadinv the firmware. I was going to give that a go tonight
    May 30, 2015 at 4:47 PM - Speakr4thedead: yeah a few times
    May 30, 2015 at 4:47 PM - donhuevo: I just realized, I have a spare 2560. I'm going to try and push the firmware to it.
    May 30, 2015 at 4:47 PM - Speakr4thedead: so I found the *.cpp.o files
    May 30, 2015 at 4:48 PM - Speakr4thedead: they are definitely in that Temp files folder
    May 30, 2015 at 4:48 PM - donhuevo: where is the temp files folder?
    May 30, 2015 at 4:48 PM - Speakr4thedead: AppData\Local\Temp
    May 30, 2015 at 4:49 PM - Speakr4thedead: but it looks like generating those files is part of the process. Every time I attempt to verify, it creates a new folder in Temp files with all of these *.cpp.o and *.cpp.d files
    May 30, 2015 at 4:49 PM - donhuevo: I just uploaded with no errors
    May 30, 2015 at 4:50 PM - Sims Reaper: What kind of antivirus are you using? Maybe that is interrupting the process
    May 30, 2015 at 4:50 PM - donhuevo: AVG
    May 30, 2015 at 4:51 PM - Speakr4thedead: no antivirus
    May 30, 2015 at 4:51 PM - Speakr4thedead: I live on the edge lol
    May 30, 2015 at 4:51 PM - Sims Reaper: Haha.
    May 30, 2015 at 4:51 PM - Speakr4thedead: I am running win7 in OSX bootcamp...but that shouldn't matter
    May 30, 2015 at 4:51 PM - donhuevo: just did it again this time with the AVRISP mkII programmer option
    May 30, 2015 at 4:51 PM - Speakr4thedead: I've seen the same issue trying OSX Arduino as well
    May 30, 2015 at 4:52 PM - donhuevo: maybe you need to run the Arduino software as Administrator or take your UAC all the way down
    May 30, 2015 at 4:52 PM - Sims Reaper: I came across an old forum post about this where the OP finally tried compiling on a friends computer and it went smooth. I have no idea why though.
    May 30, 2015 at 4:52 PM - Sims Reaper: UAC?
    May 30, 2015 at 4:53 PM - donhuevo: Control Panel->User Accounts->Change User Account Control settings
    May 30, 2015 at 4:54 PM - Sims Reaper: It has to be the way our windows is setup. Some small issue is causing compiling issues.
    May 30, 2015 at 4:54 PM - donhuevo: maybe without Administrative rights, that temp folder can't get cleared out
    May 30, 2015 at 4:54 PM - Sims Reaper: Ahh anything is worth a try right now
    May 30, 2015 at 4:54 PM - Speakr4thedead: @donhuevo I've tried both
    May 30, 2015 at 4:54 PM - donhuevo: both what?
    May 30, 2015 at 4:55 PM - Speakr4thedead: disable UAC and running in admin
    May 30, 2015 at 4:55 PM - donhuevo: well crap
    May 30, 2015 at 4:55 PM - donhuevo: delete the temp files?
    May 30, 2015 at 4:56 PM - donhuevo: uninstall Arduino then reinstall as administrator?
    May 30, 2015 at 4:56 PM - donhuevo: throwing darts here now
    May 30, 2015 at 4:56 PM - Sims Reaper: Funny thinv is that it is the exact same issue I am having. You'd think it would have come up before this as well.
    May 30, 2015 at 4:57 PM - Speakr4thedead: tried all of those unfortunately
    May 30, 2015 at 4:57 PM - Speakr4thedead: I've been at this for a few days lol
    May 30, 2015 at 4:58 PM - Speakr4thedead: I'm going to do some research into the nature of that specific error in Arduino
    May 30, 2015 at 4:58 PM - Sims Reaper: Good luck.
    May 30, 2015 at 4:58 PM - donhuevo: ^
    May 30, 2015 at 5:03 PM - Speakr4thedead: when you add the auto_level_7_17_8mm folder to Arduino, what is the best way to do so? Just drag and drop into the libraries directory?
    May 30, 2015 at 5:04 PM - donhuevo: you don't add it to Arduino, you open the folder then double-click the auto_level.ino file
    May 30, 2015 at 5:04 PM - Speakr4thedead: so you dont move it at all?
    May 30, 2015 at 5:05 PM - donhuevo: after unzipping, no. not necessary
    May 30, 2015 at 5:05 PM - Speakr4thedead: alright, I will try that, maybe that's where it's coming from
    May 30, 2015 at 5:05 PM - Sims Reaper: When installing arduino, did you use the installer or the.zip file?
    May 30, 2015 at 5:06 PM - donhuevo: installer
    May 30, 2015 at 5:06 PM - Speakr4thedead: installer for a couple of them, zip file for a couple of them
    May 30, 2015 at 5:06 PM - Sims Reaper: I did as well. Just read an arduino forum post suggesting an unintelligible and use of the zip install
    May 30, 2015 at 5:07 PM - Sims Reaper: It was the last post on a similar issue. Can't be sure if that fixed it though
    May 30, 2015 at 5:07 PM - Sims Reaper: Again. I'm just throwing darts
    May 30, 2015 at 5:08 PM - Speakr4thedead: fixed it thank god
    May 30, 2015 at 5:08 PM - Speakr4thedead: or at least it verified
    May 30, 2015 at 5:09 PM - donhuevo: yay!!!
    May 30, 2015 at 5:09 PM - Speakr4thedead: so I uninstalled Arduino, deleted the Arduino folder in Programs(x86), the Arduino folder in Documents (1/2)
    May 30, 2015 at 5:10 PM - Speakr4thedead: (2/2) went into the AppData\Local\Temp folder and deleted all Arduino temp files, then I deleted the registry keys for Arduino in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT and reinstalled Arduino, redownloaded the firmware file and it worked
    May 30, 2015 at 5:11 PM - donhuevo: it was never that painful
    May 30, 2015 at 5:12 PM - Sims Reaper: Ok I took a screens hot of your fix and will try the exact same thing. Awesome work Speakr!!
    May 30, 2015 at 5:14 PM - Speakr4thedead: let me know if it works for you
    May 30, 2015 at 5:15 PM - Sims Reaper: I will. Still 2 hrs till I get the chance to try it :mad:
    May 30, 2015 at 5:15 PM - Speakr4thedead: now to see if it will actually upload to the printer
    May 30, 2015 at 5:16 PM - Sims Reaper: I'm very new to this whole thing and the community here but I have to say it's been extremely helpful and supportive.
    May 30, 2015 at 5:16 PM - Speakr4thedead: same, definitely appreciate the help and patience
    May 30, 2015 at 5:17 PM - donhuevo: did it upload? edge of my seat here
    May 30, 2015 at 5:18 PM - Speakr4thedead: success!
    May 30, 2015 at 5:18 PM - donhuevo: woot!
    May 30, 2015 at 5:19 PM - donhuevo: sims, were you doing anything similar with where you were dropping your firmware files?
    May 30, 2015 at 5:20 PM - donhuevo: trying to add them in arduino like a library file?
    May 30, 2015 at 5:21 PM - Speakr4thedead: I feel like that was where the issues started coming from for me, then I think something happened in the registry and it just wouldn't fix itself
    May 30, 2015 at 5:23 PM - Speakr4thedead: just glad to have everything finally working...I went on vacation and when I came back gremlins had done something to the printer. Auto-level was all off and that took a whole day, then firmware wouldn't upload
    May 30, 2015 at 5:24 PM - donhuevo: does your auto-level routine happen before or after your extruder pre-heats?
    May 30, 2015 at 5:24 PM - Speakr4thedead: after
    May 30, 2015 at 5:25 PM - Speakr4thedead: think there was maybe a mini earthquake or something that moved the z-rods a bit and threw everything off while I was gone
    May 30, 2015 at 5:25 PM - donhuevo: k... mine happens before so I have to watch for solidified filament boogers hanging off the extruder during auto-level
    May 30, 2015 at 5:26 PM - Speakr4thedead: got it back to decently level, within .1mm of difference on all 9 points at least

    May 30, 2015 at 5:27 PM - Speakr4thedead: I think the bed is a little off kilter on the back right corner by maybe 50 microns or so, not much I can do about it except maybe put some paper between the magnets and feet
    May 30, 2015 at 5:28 PM - donhuevo: that's what the autolevel is supposed to adjust for
    May 30, 2015 at 5:29 PM - Sims Reaper: I did the first time I tried it. Afterwards I tried redoing without dropping but maybe dmg was already done
    May 30, 2015 at 5:29 PM - Speakr4thedead: does a decent job. I get some squiggles on that corner with the skirt but then it's fine
    May 30, 2015 at 5:29 PM - Speakr4thedead: Sims, I think it's something with the registry keys
    May 30, 2015 at 5:35 PM - Speakr4thedead: @donhuevo is there a reason you don't preheat before doing the autolevel?
    May 30, 2015 at 5:35 PM - Speakr4thedead: something I should know?
    May 30, 2015 at 5:36 PM - donhuevo: I don't like getting melted boogers on my bed
    May 30, 2015 at 5:36 PM - Speakr4thedead: ah
    May 30, 2015 at 5:37 PM - Speakr4thedead: I just follow it with the scraper and pull them off as it levels
    May 30, 2015 at 5:38 PM - donhuevo: I try and clean the nozzle as it's cooling down after a print but it's just personal preference
    May 30, 2015 at 5:39 PM - Speakr4thedead: sure
    May 30, 2015 at 5:39 PM - Speakr4thedead: just was curious if it was better for the printer for any reason
    May 30, 2015 at 5:43 PM - donhuevo: alrighty... you kids have a good night.
    May 30, 2015 at 5:43 PM - jbigler1986: just the first few minutes messing with inventor pro and it's easier than SW
    May 30, 2015 at 5:43 PM - Speakr4thedead: thanks again for the help
    May 30, 2015 at 5:43 PM - donhuevo: yep
    May 30, 2015 at 5:44 PM - donhuevo: I already uninstalled inventor. hate it compared to autocad
    May 30, 2015 at 5:44 PM - donhuevo: f that
    May 30, 2015 at 5:44 PM - jbigler1986: well i like it so far
    May 30, 2015 at 5:44 PM - donhuevo: that's all that matters
    May 30, 2015 at 5:44 PM - jbigler1986: i don't do any really complicated stuff (yet)
    May 30, 2015 at 5:45 PM - jbigler1986: what do you not like about it
    May 30, 2015 at 5:45 PM - donhuevo: it didn't seem to have nearly the tools that autocad has.
    May 30, 2015 at 5:45 PM - donhuevo: ugly interface too
    May 30, 2015 at 5:46 PM - jbigler1986: ahhh. reminds me of SW
    May 30, 2015 at 5:46 PM - donhuevo: I was hoping to see a lot of familiar things
    May 30, 2015 at 5:46 PM - toy: poor don
    May 30, 2015 at 5:46 PM - jbigler1986: i'm not real familiar with SW or any cad so that's why I'm open
    May 30, 2015 at 5:46 PM - donhuevo: yep. poor me
    May 30, 2015 at 5:47 PM - donhuevo: Autocad does everything I need it to do
    May 30, 2015 at 5:48 PM - toy: its fine... but not for anything mechanical
    May 30, 2015 at 5:48 PM - toy: u cant build constraints... u cant do stress testing, center of gravity
    May 30, 2015 at 5:49 PM - toy: i use to use autocad....
    May 30, 2015 at 5:50 PM - donhuevo: it makes 3d work easy. that's all I need
    May 30, 2015 at 5:52 PM - Speakr4thedead: I'm a fan of 3DS Max myself
    May 30, 2015 at 5:53 PM - toy: if your doing mechanical design inventor > autocad
    May 30, 2015 at 5:53 PM - Speakr4thedead: SW for mechanical
    May 30, 2015 at 5:53 PM - Speakr4thedead: but only because I used it in college and know it
    May 30, 2015 at 5:53 PM - toy: their very close
    May 30, 2015 at 5:54 PM - donhuevo: mayonaisse or miracle whip. this is where I leave you
    May 30, 2015 at 5:54 PM - toy: i dont know why u would use autocad for mechanical design unless inventor intimates you =)
    May 30, 2015 at 5:57 PM - toy: http://www.autodesk.com/suites/product-design-suite/compare/compare-to-other-products i dont see one thing mechanical autocad can do that inventor cant
    May 30, 2015 at 6:05 PM - jbigler1986: What do people use to design 3d art pieces? Blender?
    May 30, 2015 at 6:09 PM - Speakr4thedead: I use 3DS Max + Zbrush workflow
    May 30, 2015 at 6:11 PM - Speakr4thedead: Blender or Sketchup are good free options
    May 30, 2015 at 6:11 PM - Speakr4thedead: Blender just has the world's worst UI
    May 30, 2015 at 6:12 PM - Mike Glass: Blender is nice but hard to get used too
    May 30, 2015 at 6:12 PM - Speakr4thedead: blender is powerful
    May 30, 2015 at 6:13 PM - Bill Monroe: Sketchup bites monkey nipples
    May 30, 2015 at 6:14 PM - Speakr4thedead: if you want to make something simple, fast, it's better than spending 3 weeks trying to understand the reasoning behind Blender's menu layout
    May 30, 2015 at 6:17 PM - jbigler1986: Inventors bend tool is nice
    May 30, 2015 at 6:17 PM - Bill Monroe: >biting tongue<
    May 30, 2015 at 6:17 PM - Speakr4thedead: lol
    May 30, 2015 at 6:19 PM - Bill Monroe: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/bills-lab
    May 30, 2015 at 6:21 PM - jbigler1986: Bill you are biased. You aren't allowed to speak on the subject. Lol. You have been using it since like day 1
    May 30, 2015 at 6:22 PM - Bill Monroe: biased doesnt mean I'm wrong :)
    May 30, 2015 at 6:22 PM - jbigler1986: Never said that
    May 30, 2015 at 6:22 PM - mark tomlinson: Sketfhup doesn't only stick to monkeys
    May 30, 2015 at 6:23 PM - mark tomlinson: or nipples
    May 30, 2015 at 6:23 PM - mark tomlinson: it bites a lot
    May 30, 2015 at 6:23 PM - Bill Monroe: ya, I wasnt allowing for those supermen that can actually design something more complicate than a lego in Ketchup
    May 30, 2015 at 6:23 PM - jbigler1986: Yeah I tried out and it was awful
    May 30, 2015 at 6:24 PM - mark tomlinson: but hey! It is free. Worth every penny.
    May 30, 2015 at 6:24 PM - Bill Monroe: <hi5>
    May 30, 2015 at 6:25 PM - Speakr4thedead: "but hey! It is free" <- the motto of practically all free modelling software lol
    May 30, 2015 at 6:25 PM - jbigler1986: Not worth the hard drive space
    May 30, 2015 at 6:25 PM - mark tomlinson: :)
    May 30, 2015 at 6:26 PM - mark tomlinson: Nothing is really free (as in beer)
    May 30, 2015 at 6:26 PM - mark tomlinson: It may be free (as in pseech) but that is it
    May 30, 2015 at 6:26 PM - mark tomlinson: speech
    May 30, 2015 at 6:27 PM - Bill Monroe: I used autocrud until 1985, then switched to ProE
    May 30, 2015 at 6:27 PM - mark tomlinson: Smart move
    May 30, 2015 at 6:27 PM - Bill Monroe: but when Solidworks was released, I never looked back
    May 30, 2015 at 6:28 PM - Mike Glass: I hate that ketchsup program, im with Bill
    May 30, 2015 at 6:29 PM - Bill Monroe: i called Dassualt and asked them what a retired guy was to do .. company was paying for the license but a retiree cant afford it.. I didnt want to learn another CAD program.. you'd never believe what they told me
    May 30, 2015 at 6:29 PM - Bill Monroe: "bootleg it"
    May 30, 2015 at 6:29 PM - Speakr4thedead: I dont think anyone is really pro-sketchup, I was just saying if you need to make a circle and a box and put them together, sketchup > blender
    May 30, 2015 at 6:30 PM - Bill Monroe: if all I'm going to do is make a circle and a box... I'd just forget it.
    May 30, 2015 at 6:30 PM - Speakr4thedead: ah, not an artist i see :p
    May 30, 2015 at 6:30 PM - Mike Glass: freecad would be better then sketchup
    May 30, 2015 at 6:31 PM - Bill Monroe: i dont think a circle and a box is art.
    May 30, 2015 at 6:31 PM - Mike Glass: haha no shit
    May 30, 2015 at 6:31 PM - Speakr4thedead: see my above statement lol
    May 30, 2015 at 6:31 PM - Bill Monroe: i know some do.. but.. well you know..
    May 30, 2015 at 6:31 PM - Mike Glass: what ya building Bill?
    May 30, 2015 at 6:31 PM - Bill Monroe: mount for an Arduino Mega
    May 30, 2015 at 6:32 PM - Bill Monroe: you?
    May 30, 2015 at 6:33 PM - Mike Glass: looking for a mount for arduino Uno
    May 30, 2015 at 6:33 PM - Bill Monroe: that's next :)
    May 30, 2015 at 6:33 PM - Mike Glass: and one for the nano
    May 30, 2015 at 6:34 PM - Bill Monroe: i dunt have no nano
    May 30, 2015 at 6:35 PM - jbigler1986: Still printing the automatic transmission parts. Damn son turning off computer. Filament tangled. Ugh
    May 30, 2015 at 6:35 PM - Mike Glass: nano is like $11
    May 30, 2015 at 6:36 PM - Bill Monroe: ya, just havnt bought one yet.. been busy with the mega
    May 30, 2015 at 6:36 PM - Bill Monroe: got a project that needs a dedicated serial port
    May 30, 2015 at 6:37 PM - Bill Monroe: my son has a few nanos.. i'll jack one of his when he gets here :)
    May 30, 2015 at 6:55 PM - Mike Kelly: why does your son keep turning your computer off?
    May 30, 2015 at 6:57 PM - Mike Kelly: also i'm beat, ran speaker wires for our outside setup finally
    May 30, 2015 at 6:57 PM - Mike Kelly: only to find out the zone 2 option on our receiver only supports analog inputs

    May 30, 2015 at 6:57 PM - Mike Kelly: which isn't really surprising I guess but frustrating
    May 30, 2015 at 6:57 PM - jbigler1986: Not again. Just saying the issues I've been having
    May 30, 2015 at 6:58 PM - Mike Kelly: came up with a work around of using a digital to analog converter to take the toslink from the appletv and run it into an analog input on the receiver so I can airplay through that
    May 30, 2015 at 6:58 PM - Mike Kelly: ah
    May 30, 2015 at 6:58 PM - jbigler1986: Also random that I have never had a tangled spool then I have 2 in a week.
    May 30, 2015 at 6:58 PM - Mike Kelly: which brand
    May 30, 2015 at 7:01 PM - jbigler1986: Sainsmart and justpla
    May 30, 2015 at 7:10 PM - Mike Glass: never had an issue with justpla
    May 30, 2015 at 7:16 PM - jbigler1986: It was about a quarter of the way into the spool
    May 30, 2015 at 7:48 PM - Sims Reaper: SUCCESS! Life is glorious and I love you all!
    May 30, 2015 at 7:48 PM - Sims Reaper: Mwahahhaah
    May 30, 2015 at 7:49 PM - Bill Monroe: shhh you said you wouldnt talk about that in public
    May 30, 2015 at 7:49 PM - Sims Reaper: I finally got the Arduino code compiled and uploaded to the Robo
    May 30, 2015 at 7:50 PM - Sims Reaper: ... didn't really plan this far ahead... don't have a test print in mind
    May 30, 2015 at 7:53 PM - Bill Monroe: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ugjxbnyp6wnp50g/Deprime_Test.stl?dl=0
    May 30, 2015 at 7:53 PM - Bill Monroe: that's a good test
    May 30, 2015 at 8:00 PM - Speakr4thedead: anybody in here use Repetier Host for slicing?
    May 30, 2015 at 8:00 PM - Bill Monroe: never
    May 30, 2015 at 8:01 PM - jbigler1986: i use to
    May 30, 2015 at 8:01 PM - Mike Kelly: used to, mike glass does still
    May 30, 2015 at 8:01 PM - Speakr4thedead: is there any way to control the z-offset?
    May 30, 2015 at 8:01 PM - Mike Kelly: depends which slicer you select
    May 30, 2015 at 8:02 PM - Speakr4thedead: CuraEngine
    May 30, 2015 at 8:02 PM - Mike Kelly: but it's better to add a M565 to the startuop gcode
    May 30, 2015 at 8:02 PM - Mike Kelly: cura doesn't have it
    May 30, 2015 at 8:02 PM - Speakr4thedead: was afraid of that
    May 30, 2015 at 8:02 PM - Mike Kelly: oh don't be so melodramatic :) it's easy
    May 30, 2015 at 8:03 PM - Speakr4thedead: currently my nozzle drags on the glass during the first layer
    May 30, 2015 at 8:04 PM - Sims Reaper: Speakr, Thanks again for the help with Arduino man
    May 30, 2015 at 8:04 PM - Speakr4thedead: tbh i've been using MatterControl with no issues until today randomly
    May 30, 2015 at 8:04 PM - Mike Kelly: startup gcode: add M565 Z-1.0 before G28
    May 30, 2015 at 8:04 PM - Speakr4thedead: sure thing
    May 30, 2015 at 8:04 PM - Speakr4thedead: thanks Mike, I'll give it a shot
    May 30, 2015 at 8:04 PM - Mike Kelly: i mean before G28
    May 30, 2015 at 8:05 PM - Mike Kelly: replace 1.0 with whatever you were using in MC
    May 30, 2015 at 8:05 PM - Mike Kelly: and be sure you have a G29 :)
    May 30, 2015 at 8:09 PM - jbigler1986: what is a good z offset/first layer test
    May 30, 2015 at 8:13 PM - Mike Glass: Thoughts [​IMG]
    May 30, 2015 at 8:13 PM - Speakr4thedead: Thanks again Mike Kelly, that fixed my issue
    May 30, 2015 at 8:15 PM - jbigler1986: how deep is the cut for the bottom of the bottles>
    May 30, 2015 at 8:15 PM - Mike Kelly: Looks nice mike
    May 30, 2015 at 8:15 PM - Mike Glass: 1/4 inch
    May 30, 2015 at 8:16 PM - jbigler1986: that should be plenty
    May 30, 2015 at 8:16 PM - Mike Glass: wondering if I should put holes on the bottom of each bottle to let moisture out
    May 30, 2015 at 8:19 PM - Mike Glass: ugg sw has like crashed 20 times on me today
    May 30, 2015 at 8:20 PM - Mike Glass: ok 21 now
    May 30, 2015 at 8:20 PM - Mike Kelly: Welcome to my world!
    May 30, 2015 at 8:20 PM - Mike Kelly: If you send me the assembly I can give some pointers
    May 30, 2015 at 8:21 PM - jbigler1986: i'm liking inventor so far. bending parts is simple
    May 30, 2015 at 8:22 PM - Mike Kelly: Inventor also does really nice helical shapes and springs
    May 30, 2015 at 8:24 PM - Mike Kelly: Alright I'm trying aria on the 1.6 with dual cooling fans now
    May 30, 2015 at 8:24 PM - jbigler1986: i think i'm getting to anal on quality of prints
    May 30, 2015 at 8:26 PM - jbigler1986: i think i figured out what i want to do as a filament guide
    May 30, 2015 at 8:30 PM - Speakr4thedead: I'm still working on finding a decent/simple fan shroud compatible with the hexagon hotend
    May 30, 2015 at 8:30 PM - Speakr4thedead: everything hangs too low so far
    May 30, 2015 at 8:30 PM - jbigler1986: dual?
    May 30, 2015 at 8:31 PM - jbigler1986: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:720018
    May 30, 2015 at 8:31 PM - Speakr4thedead: no, not yet. I'd just like to find any fan shroud that fits first without compromising my build height
    May 30, 2015 at 8:31 PM - Mike Kelly: what Z offset are you guys running
    May 30, 2015 at 8:31 PM - Speakr4thedead: 1mm
    May 30, 2015 at 8:31 PM - jbigler1986: i'm at 67
    May 30, 2015 at 8:32 PM - Speakr4thedead: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:649803/
    May 30, 2015 at 8:32 PM - Speakr4thedead: this is the latest one i've tried but it hangs below the nozzle
    May 30, 2015 at 8:32 PM - jbigler1986: yeah looks to restricting anyways
    May 30, 2015 at 8:33 PM - jbigler1986: shrouds are not necessary
    May 30, 2015 at 8:33 PM - Speakr4thedead: eh, I had one for a bit and it really improved the bridging
    May 30, 2015 at 8:33 PM - Speakr4thedead: it just severely limited my build height
    May 30, 2015 at 8:34 PM - Mike Glass: Mike, check your skype
    May 30, 2015 at 8:34 PM - jbigler1986: go dual fans and no shrouds are needed
    May 30, 2015 at 8:35 PM - Speakr4thedead: gotta find someone with a soldering kti
    May 30, 2015 at 8:35 PM - Speakr4thedead: kit*
    May 30, 2015 at 8:35 PM - jbigler1986: buy one for like $10 bucks
    May 30, 2015 at 8:35 PM - jbigler1986: are you in the US or overseas?
    May 30, 2015 at 8:35 PM - Speakr4thedead: US, but no space for it
    May 30, 2015 at 8:35 PM - Speakr4thedead: I live in a tiny flat
    May 30, 2015 at 8:36 PM - Mike Kelly: "no space"
    May 30, 2015 at 8:36 PM - Speakr4thedead: the printer pretty much takes up my free space
    May 30, 2015 at 8:36 PM - Mike Kelly: lol
    May 30, 2015 at 8:36 PM - Mike Kelly: i've worked in a bathroom before
    May 30, 2015 at 8:36 PM - Mike Kelly: i think you have space for a soldering iron
    May 30, 2015 at 8:36 PM - Mike Kelly: they take up like no room
    May 30, 2015 at 8:36 PM - Speakr4thedead: more for the work area
    May 30, 2015 at 8:36 PM - Mike Kelly: still though
    May 30, 2015 at 8:37 PM - Mike Kelly: my offsets at like .5 but i feel like i need to go to .4
    May 30, 2015 at 8:38 PM - jbigler1986: that's a pretty good size difference there
    May 30, 2015 at 8:38 PM - Mike Kelly: well ok maybe .45
    May 30, 2015 at 8:38 PM - Mike Kelly: but still .5 wasn't ideal
    May 30, 2015 at 8:38 PM - Mike Kelly: had to twist the rods
    May 30, 2015 at 8:38 PM - jbigler1986: first layer look like crap?
    May 30, 2015 at 8:39 PM - Mike Kelly: eh it woulda been fine
    May 30, 2015 at 8:39 PM - Mike Kelly: but the perimeters weren't touching
    May 30, 2015 at 8:39 PM - jbigler1986: same crap i was dealing with remember
    May 30, 2015 at 8:41 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah
    May 30, 2015 at 8:43 PM - jbigler1986: idk what fixed it but it's fine now
    May 30, 2015 at 8:43 PM - jbigler1986: wish i had the answer on that one

    May 30, 2015 at 9:13 PM - jbigler1986: damn stream
    May 30, 2015 at 9:13 PM - Mike Kelly: the autolevel isn't super repeatable
    May 30, 2015 at 9:14 PM - jbigler1986: what
    May 30, 2015 at 9:14 PM - jbigler1986: consistent?
    May 30, 2015 at 9:14 PM - Mike Kelly: sure
    May 30, 2015 at 9:15 PM - jbigler1986: add the bullet box. it helps a lot
    May 30, 2015 at 9:16 PM - jbigler1986: that should count as "modifying" it right?
    May 30, 2015 at 9:16 PM - Mike Kelly: i do have that counter balance
    May 30, 2015 at 9:16 PM - Mike Kelly: basically as long as i can remove it for videos it's ok
    May 30, 2015 at 9:16 PM - jbigler1986: hmmm
    May 30, 2015 at 9:20 PM - jbigler1986: i've had enough troubleshooting for today. calling i a night. see ya tomorrow
    May 30, 2015 at 9:21 PM - Mike Kelly: late
    May 30, 2015 at 9:21 PM - Mike Glass: night JB
    May 30, 2015 at 10:57 PM - Mike Kelly: ~23 minutes for the first video...
    May 30, 2015 at 10:57 PM - Mike Kelly: might need to split it again
    May 30, 2015 at 10:57 PM - Mike Kelly: but for now i'm going to bed
    May 30, 2015 at 11:23 PM - toy: anyone messed with the pin.h file?
    May 30, 2015 at 11:24 PM - toy: http://wiki.e3d-online.com/wiki/Cyclops/Chimera_on_RoBo3D
    May 31, 2015 at 12:47 AM - BryZad: hi
    May 31, 2015 at 12:47 AM - toy: hey
    May 31, 2015 at 12:55 AM - BryZad: hey toy
    May 31, 2015 at 12:55 AM - BryZad: wonder if i could bounce some ideas off you
    May 31, 2015 at 12:59 AM - toy: sure whats up
    May 31, 2015 at 1:00 AM - BryZad: when would you think i would need to buy a new .4 knozzel
    May 31, 2015 at 1:00 AM - BryZad: do the wear out ?
    May 31, 2015 at 1:01 AM - BryZad: i used to get decen smooth prints but now the edges of prints are curling up all the time
    May 31, 2015 at 1:02 AM - BryZad: and if i have the printer pre heat the hot end has plastic slowly coming out of the nozzel
    May 31, 2015 at 3:34 AM - toy: not sure... sry some girl came over... doubt it is the nozzle
    May 31, 2015 at 6:18 AM - jbigler1986: Good morning
    May 31, 2015 at 6:26 AM - Mike Glass: mornin
    May 31, 2015 at 6:29 AM - jbigler1986: You are up early
    May 31, 2015 at 6:30 AM - Mike Glass: I am usually up by7:30 execpt for work days..lol
    May 31, 2015 at 6:42 AM - Bill Monroe: as you were
    May 31, 2015 at 6:45 AM - Bill Monroe: have you ever had someone ask you for advice, then tell you that you're wrong and don't know what you're talking about?
    May 31, 2015 at 6:46 AM - jbigler1986: Oh yeah. It's very very annoying
    May 31, 2015 at 6:47 AM - Bill Monroe: ok, then me kicking their nuts isnt an over-reaction :)
    May 31, 2015 at 6:47 AM - jbigler1986: Hey how do you do this. Well you........ No that's not right
    May 31, 2015 at 6:48 AM - Bill Monroe: the last time someone did that, I divorced her, drained her "secret" back account, and sold her car without telling her :)
    May 31, 2015 at 6:50 AM - jbigler1986: Well I didn't go that far. I just told them to get the fuck out of my office
    May 31, 2015 at 6:52 AM - Bill Monroe: well, there was considerable back story
    May 31, 2015 at 7:04 AM - jbigler1986: I'm sure there was. I know how fond of your ex you are
    May 31, 2015 at 7:20 AM - Mike Kelly: Morning
    May 31, 2015 at 7:22 AM - Mike Glass: howdy
    May 31, 2015 at 7:37 AM - Mike Glass: printing the beer caddy on the printer at 40% scale
    May 31, 2015 at 7:37 AM - Bill Monroe: for airline bottles?
    May 31, 2015 at 7:42 AM - Mike Glass: haha yea that would probably work
    May 31, 2015 at 7:43 AM - Mike Glass: would put the holes right about 1"
    May 31, 2015 at 7:46 AM - Mike Kelly: Shoulda made it sampler sized
    May 31, 2015 at 7:48 AM - Mike Glass: I wanted it all to fit the bed though
    May 31, 2015 at 7:49 AM - Mike Glass: it probably wont go together anyways, didnt leave any tolerance for the slots
    May 31, 2015 at 7:55 AM - Mike Glass: my selection for solid colors really suck, mostly transparents
    May 31, 2015 at 7:55 AM - Mike Kelly: Haha. Apply a material instead
    May 31, 2015 at 7:56 AM - Mike Glass: will that change the color?
    May 31, 2015 at 7:57 AM - Mike Glass: I had it on walnut but did not change the color when it exruded..lol
    May 31, 2015 at 8:14 AM - Mike Kelly: It will change the color
    May 31, 2015 at 8:25 AM - Mike Glass: why does s3d lie to you about finish time, always about 30-45 min off.
    May 31, 2015 at 8:31 AM - Bill Monroe: actually, it's Marlin that lies
    May 31, 2015 at 8:32 AM - Bill Monroe: computes time based on layers, not speed/filament length
    May 31, 2015 at 8:33 AM - Bill Monroe: eh.. maybe they both do
    May 31, 2015 at 8:36 AM - Mike Kelly: I've found curas been the most accurate. But still usually off
    May 31, 2015 at 8:37 AM - Bill Monroe: ya, I was thinking of the % calc. that's a fantasy
    May 31, 2015 at 8:42 AM - donhuevo: gents
    May 31, 2015 at 8:42 AM - Bill Monroe: don
    May 31, 2015 at 8:43 AM - donhuevo: are we done measuring each other's cad program? I can leave...
    May 31, 2015 at 8:43 AM - Bill Monroe: :)
    May 31, 2015 at 8:43 AM - donhuevo: it's not the size, it's how you use it
    May 31, 2015 at 8:43 AM - Bill Monroe: no, it's the size
    May 31, 2015 at 8:46 AM - donhuevo: ok then
    May 31, 2015 at 8:51 AM - Mike Glass: Billy, Don what up gents
    May 31, 2015 at 8:54 AM - donhuevo: morning Mike
    May 31, 2015 at 8:54 AM - Bill Monroe: price of gas
    May 31, 2015 at 8:54 AM - Bill Monroe: Hi Mike
    May 31, 2015 at 8:54 AM - Mike Glass: did it go up?
    May 31, 2015 at 8:54 AM - Bill Monroe: it did here but, that's nothing new
    May 31, 2015 at 8:54 AM - Bill Monroe: I think the only place in the country gas is higher is Palm Springs
    May 31, 2015 at 8:55 AM - Bill Monroe: oddly though, AvGas has gone down
    May 31, 2015 at 8:55 AM - Mike Glass: its $2.49 here
    May 31, 2015 at 8:56 AM - Bill Monroe: $4.00 here for MoGas.. $4.99 for Avgas
    May 31, 2015 at 8:56 AM - Bill Monroe: Palm Springs is 4.35
    May 31, 2015 at 8:56 AM - donhuevo: I haven't been in a few days but I have to buy 93 octane
    May 31, 2015 at 8:59 AM - Mike Glass: do you work from home Don
    May 31, 2015 at 8:59 AM - donhuevo: maybe one day a week
    May 31, 2015 at 9:00 AM - Bill Monroe: i think what kills our prices is taxes
    May 31, 2015 at 9:00 AM - Bill Monroe: and the fact the oil companies know we'll pay for it
    May 31, 2015 at 9:01 AM - jbigler1986: Damn the brakes on the stand for this transmission are a bitch to get loose
    May 31, 2015 at 9:01 AM - donhuevo: so how hard could it be to design a print-it-yourself electric alternative that would pass an inspection?
    May 31, 2015 at 9:01 AM - Bill Monroe: make it a trike
    May 31, 2015 at 9:02 AM - Bill Monroe: I dont know your state's laws.. in california if it's got less than 4 wheels, it;s a motorcycle and the laws are much easier
    May 31, 2015 at 9:03 AM - donhuevo: electric cuts out all the smog regulations
    May 31, 2015 at 9:03 AM - jbigler1986: Aint that the truth
    May 31, 2015 at 9:07 AM - Bill Monroe: there's a club working out of a hanger here that electrifys cars
    May 31, 2015 at 9:07 AM - Bill Monroe: just finished a 914
    May 31, 2015 at 9:07 AM - Bill Monroe: they offered to do my model A
    May 31, 2015 at 9:08 AM - Mike Kelly: Reminder that 3d printing is bi-partisan. Let's keep all politically driven comments out of the forums. This is a welcoming place and no one should feel bullied regardless of political affiliation
    May 31, 2015 at 9:09 AM - donhuevo: and regardless of CAD program
    May 31, 2015 at 9:09 AM - Mike Kelly: All hail solidworks!
    May 31, 2015 at 9:10 AM - donhuevo: how many times a day do I hear 'SW crashed on me again'
    May 31, 2015 at 9:10 AM - jbigler1986: Lol
    May 31, 2015 at 9:10 AM - Bill Monroe: mine never crashes
    May 31, 2015 at 9:10 AM - jbigler1986: Mine does sometimes. Not very often though

    May 31, 2015 at 9:11 AM - Bill Monroe: of course, mine is legal
    May 31, 2015 at 9:11 AM - Mike Kelly: I don't think there's a software out there that can handle the models I fenerate
    May 31, 2015 at 9:11 AM - donhuevo: they make a little blue pill for that
    May 31, 2015 at 9:11 AM - Mike Kelly: Thousands of parts is hard on it
    May 31, 2015 at 9:11 AM - Mike Kelly: And the routing function is buggy but incredibly useful
    May 31, 2015 at 9:12 AM - Mike Kelly: I really hope when we upgrade to 2015 next month my problems minimize m
    May 31, 2015 at 9:13 AM - jbigler1986: Fuck yes. The aerocart
    May 31, 2015 at 9:13 AM - Mike Kelly: That looks nice
    May 31, 2015 at 9:14 AM - jbigler1986: Lmao
    May 31, 2015 at 9:14 AM - jbigler1986:
    May 31, 2015 at 9:16 AM - Mike Kelly: You don't need a man
    May 31, 2015 at 9:16 AM - Mike Kelly: Would at least take up less room than my dolly and wheel barrow
    May 31, 2015 at 9:24 AM - jbigler1986: It looks ridiculous
    May 31, 2015 at 9:29 AM - donhuevo: so dual shafted nema11 geared 27:1. wondering if I could put a fan on the motor shaft for self-cooling
    May 31, 2015 at 9:41 AM - Mike Kelly: wouldn't move very fast
    May 31, 2015 at 9:41 AM - Mike Kelly: put an encoder on it
    May 31, 2015 at 9:44 AM - donhuevo: I may do that instead.
    May 31, 2015 at 9:44 AM - Mike Kelly: i need to shoot a new introduction to my video
    May 31, 2015 at 9:44 AM - Mike Kelly: i say "video" instead of "robo"
    May 31, 2015 at 9:44 AM - Mike Kelly: i'm a genius
    May 31, 2015 at 9:46 AM - donhuevo: maybe we can talk Barnacules into introducing you
    May 31, 2015 at 9:46 AM - Mike Kelly: haha
    May 31, 2015 at 9:46 AM - donhuevo: or Mike Rowe
    May 31, 2015 at 9:47 AM - Mike Kelly: it's... time... for... ROBOGASM
    May 31, 2015 at 9:49 AM - donhuevo: bat knife

    May 31, 2015 at 9:56 AM - jbigler1986: Transmission will be done tonight. 6 hours for all the rest of the planetary gears and pins. That's all that is left
    May 31, 2015 at 9:58 AM - jbigler1986: He likes his poopnaps
    May 31, 2015 at 10:05 AM - Mike Kelly: whats... a poopnap?
    May 31, 2015 at 10:09 AM - Bill Monroe: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/bills-lab
    May 31, 2015 at 10:14 AM - jbigler1986: That's a good question. He just talks about it a lot
    May 31, 2015 at 10:14 AM - BryZad: hi all
    May 31, 2015 at 10:16 AM - jbigler1986: Hello
    May 31, 2015 at 10:17 AM - donhuevo: hola
    May 31, 2015 at 10:17 AM - Mike Kelly: howdy
    May 31, 2015 at 10:18 AM - BryZad: i was having a freak out last night cause i couldnt get my robo to print worth a crap
    May 31, 2015 at 10:19 AM - donhuevo: hate it when that happens
    May 31, 2015 at 10:19 AM - BryZad: is there a time when i need to change out the nozzle ?
    May 31, 2015 at 10:19 AM - Mike Kelly: not necessarily
    May 31, 2015 at 10:20 AM - Mike Kelly: do you season or run an oiler
    May 31, 2015 at 10:20 AM - BryZad: I am sorry to be a pain again Mike K but do you have the drop box for the V6 Dull fan bracket?
    May 31, 2015 at 10:21 AM - BryZad: i reseasoned it last night and run a oiler
    May 31, 2015 at 10:31 AM - Mike Kelly: https://www.dropbox.com/s/lrfy5uv1352dclg/v6 Fan Dual.STL?dl=0
    May 31, 2015 at 10:31 AM - Mike Kelly: save it or bookmark it!
    May 31, 2015 at 10:32 AM - BryZad: Yes sir i wont let it happen agian
    May 31, 2015 at 10:36 AM - Mike Glass: hah Mike I only printed on side of the holder..doh
    May 31, 2015 at 10:37 AM - Mike Kelly: lol
    May 31, 2015 at 10:37 AM - Mike Glass: I had room on the plate too. dammit
    May 31, 2015 at 10:38 AM - Mike Glass: if this works I will do full scale with a .8 nozzle
    May 31, 2015 at 10:42 AM - Mike Kelly: well i didn't get any stringing this time with dual fans
    May 31, 2015 at 10:42 AM - Mike Kelly: but it came out fuzzy....
    May 31, 2015 at 10:42 AM - Mike Kelly: [​IMG]
    May 31, 2015 at 10:42 AM - Mike Kelly: [​IMG]
    May 31, 2015 at 10:42 AM - Mike Kelly: [​IMG]
    May 31, 2015 at 10:43 AM - BryZad: no support either?
    May 31, 2015 at 10:43 AM - Mike Kelly: nope
    May 31, 2015 at 10:43 AM - Mike Kelly: that's fresh off the build plate
    May 31, 2015 at 10:44 AM - Mike Kelly: i wonder if it's humidity? i dunno
    May 31, 2015 at 10:44 AM - BryZad: dont have to worry about humidity in AZ lol
    May 31, 2015 at 10:44 AM - Mike Kelly: might also need to season
    May 31, 2015 at 10:45 AM - BryZad: what would you recommend to prin the fan brackets in ?
    May 31, 2015 at 10:45 AM - Sims Reaper: Hello guys.
    May 31, 2015 at 10:46 AM - Mike Kelly: if you don't print much abs or nylon pla is fine
    May 31, 2015 at 10:46 AM - Mike Kelly: PET is also good
    May 31, 2015 at 10:46 AM - Mike Kelly: ABS is best for versatility
    May 31, 2015 at 10:46 AM - BryZad: I dont print alot of abs at all most is pla sand and bodyfiller to finis the props
    May 31, 2015 at 10:46 AM - donhuevo: hey sims
    May 31, 2015 at 10:47 AM - Sims Reaper: I want to get my ABS printing good because I need the sanding ability for finishing.
    May 31, 2015 at 10:48 AM - donhuevo: look into an enclosure then
    May 31, 2015 at 10:48 AM - BryZad: Mike G you see the up date pic on the Prop shotgun ?
    May 31, 2015 at 10:48 AM - Mike Kelly: that's the best part of abs
    May 31, 2015 at 10:49 AM - donhuevo: pics?
    May 31, 2015 at 10:49 AM - Sims Reaper: I'm going to build the enclosure in the next few days. A
    May 31, 2015 at 10:49 AM - Sims Reaper: Maybe pick up a heat lamp too
    May 31, 2015 at 10:53 AM - Mike Kelly: alright time to pick out an oiler
    May 31, 2015 at 10:56 AM - Mike Kelly: i hate when i get ton thingiverse to search for something and get distracted then forget why i even opened the tab
    May 31, 2015 at 10:59 AM - Sims Reaper: Here is the ABS test I got off last night.
    May 31, 2015 at 10:59 AM - Sims Reaper: [​IMG]
    May 31, 2015 at 10:59 AM - Mike Kelly: looks good to me
    May 31, 2015 at 11:00 AM - donhuevo: maybe a minor z artifact but good overall
    May 31, 2015 at 11:00 AM - Sims Reaper: Minor warping in the corners, but not bad, but I was wondering about the edges. Your can see it wave almost
    May 31, 2015 at 11:00 AM - Sims Reaper: Is that the z artifact don?
    May 31, 2015 at 11:00 AM - donhuevo: in the vertical edges yes
    May 31, 2015 at 11:02 AM - Sims Reaper: I'm going to try a 2X scale test tonight, but ya, if I can keep the warping down, I am happy with this
    May 31, 2015 at 11:03 AM - jbigler1986: Yep. Make sure the coupler on the z rods are tight. Might help it a little
    May 31, 2015 at 11:03 AM - Mike Kelly: what are you using for adhesion
    May 31, 2015 at 11:04 AM - Sims Reaper: Hair spray.... but a saloon grade "Mega Extra Strong Hold" haha.
    May 31, 2015 at 11:04 AM - jbigler1986: Ustream is losing connection like crazy right now
    May 31, 2015 at 11:04 AM - Sims Reaper: Its basically an aresole glue stick
    May 31, 2015 at 11:05 AM - donhuevo: do you have any acetone?
    May 31, 2015 at 11:05 AM - Sims Reaper: I do.
    May 31, 2015 at 11:05 AM - donhuevo: a slurry of acetone and some of the abs filament you're using would be better
    May 31, 2015 at 11:06 AM - Mike Kelly: go buy aquanet
    May 31, 2015 at 11:06 AM - donhuevo: for abs?
    May 31, 2015 at 11:06 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah that's what i use
    May 31, 2015 at 11:06 AM - donhuevo: we all know the laws of physics are broken in your garage though. this is well established
    May 31, 2015 at 11:07 AM - Sims Reaper: I will pick some up if I find it. Don, is the abs "glue" only good for a single print then need to be cleaned and re-applied?
    May 31, 2015 at 11:08 AM - donhuevo: you'll learn quick enough that I'm not an ABfnS fan AT ALL. The slurry works and this does too... http://www.amazon.com/Sally-Hansen-...&sr=8-2&keywords=sally+hansen+insta+dri+clear

    May 31, 2015 at 11:09 AM - Sims Reaper: I did get this to print with just the 80C bed temp... but had to use a raft in the end
    May 31, 2015 at 11:09 AM - Sims Reaper: [​IMG]
    May 31, 2015 at 11:09 AM - donhuevo: Mike, how's the printinz with ABS?
    May 31, 2015 at 11:09 AM - Sims Reaper: Was also my first attempt with cold vapor smoothing
    May 31, 2015 at 11:10 AM - donhuevo: looks good
    May 31, 2015 at 11:10 AM - donhuevo: now I can't get that whistle out of my head
    May 31, 2015 at 11:11 AM - jbigler1986: I hate ABfnS too. Can't stand it. Don't even have a spool of it anymore
    May 31, 2015 at 11:11 AM - donhuevo: did you run it through your weed whacker?
    May 31, 2015 at 11:11 AM - Sims Reaper: I really want to try that dragon that you just built MK. I just looks like if you can pull that off you can print just about anything that can be printed
    May 31, 2015 at 11:11 AM - Bill Monroe: OK, I'm going to go prove some flight theories... again.....
    May 31, 2015 at 11:12 AM - Bill Monroe: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/bills-lab
    May 31, 2015 at 11:19 AM - Mike Kelly: theories are already proven
    May 31, 2015 at 11:19 AM - Mike Kelly: don the printinz owns abs
    May 31, 2015 at 11:20 AM - donhuevo: how about in open air? still now warp?
    May 31, 2015 at 11:20 AM - Mike Kelly: haven't tried but apparently it can print ABS without a heated bed
    May 31, 2015 at 11:21 AM - donhuevo: got anything big and flat to experiment with?
    May 31, 2015 at 11:22 AM - Mike Kelly: hmm
    May 31, 2015 at 11:23 AM - donhuevo: maybe you could print your house numbers as big as the printinz would allow. maybe 6mm thick?
    May 31, 2015 at 11:23 AM - Mike Kelly: i did want to make a stencil for painting out house number
    May 31, 2015 at 11:24 AM - Mike Kelly: why doesn't solidworks have brick
    May 31, 2015 at 11:24 AM - donhuevo: technically that's home improvement in case Mrs Kelly is giving you the stink eye
    May 31, 2015 at 11:29 AM - jbigler1986: No Don I sent it to Mike
    May 31, 2015 at 11:37 AM - donhuevo: ?
    May 31, 2015 at 11:38 AM - Mike Kelly: so you want me to test what exactly?
    May 31, 2015 at 11:39 AM - donhuevo: printinz unenclosed abs. whether or not you heat the bed is up to you
    May 31, 2015 at 11:40 AM - Mike Kelly: i'm just gonna do 5mm
    May 31, 2015 at 11:40 AM - donhuevo: alrighty
    May 31, 2015 at 11:41 AM - Mike Kelly: my garage is also pretty warm right now
    May 31, 2015 at 11:42 AM - jbigler1986: Just print the bottom 5mm of the bit holder
    May 31, 2015 at 11:42 AM - jbigler1986: Takes up almost all of the bed
    May 31, 2015 at 11:45 AM - Mike Kelly: might as well get something useful from it
    May 31, 2015 at 11:57 AM - BryZad: that fan bracket ok to print in 10% in fill ?
    May 31, 2015 at 12:15 PM - Mike Kelly: Probably
    May 31, 2015 at 12:17 PM - BryZad: well 45 mins in we will see lol
    May 31, 2015 at 12:35 PM - toy: yo
    May 31, 2015 at 12:35 PM - toy: sry bry i got caught up last nite
    May 31, 2015 at 12:38 PM - toy: im setting up my cyclops, and looking over the pins.h file im suppose to change this line Define Temp_1_Pin to 13 from 15
    May 31, 2015 at 12:38 PM - toy: but my defualt pin for that is not 13 but -1
    May 31, 2015 at 12:39 PM - toy: http://wiki.e3d-online.com/wiki/Cyclops/Chimera_on_RoBo3D
    May 31, 2015 at 12:39 PM - toy: does this mean i need to change my firmware settings everytime i switch between chim/cyclops?
    May 31, 2015 at 12:41 PM - Mike Kelly: toy you need to be looking under motherboard 34
    May 31, 2015 at 12:41 PM - toy: i made all the changes in the config.h
    May 31, 2015 at 12:41 PM - toy: including board type from 33 to 34
    May 31, 2015 at 12:43 PM - toy: am i not looking at the correct pins.h does it change when switching to board type 34 ?
    May 31, 2015 at 12:45 PM - donhuevo: search for if statements like this... MOTHERBOARD == 34
    May 31, 2015 at 12:47 PM - donhuevo: and just in case... || means 'or'
    May 31, 2015 at 12:51 PM - toy: i see how the pins.h works thx guys
    May 31, 2015 at 1:01 PM - BryZad: hey not a prob toy
    May 31, 2015 at 1:06 PM - jbigler1986: You will have it all worked out eventually toy. Sounds like a major pain in the ass though
    May 31, 2015 at 1:09 PM - Mike Kelly: next time just use diff merge and do a code compare
    May 31, 2015 at 1:10 PM - jbigler1986: Mike, did you say you have one of the videos done?
    May 31, 2015 at 1:11 PM - Mike Kelly: first cut is done
    May 31, 2015 at 1:11 PM - Mike Kelly: i need to reshoot 2 scenes
    May 31, 2015 at 1:13 PM - toy: ive never really dabbled into the firmware, so its a learning experience setting up a new machine
    May 31, 2015 at 1:19 PM - donhuevo: did one of the extras look directly at the camera?
    May 31, 2015 at 1:20 PM - Mike Kelly: no for the intro i said "Video" instead of "Robo"
    May 31, 2015 at 1:20 PM - Mike Kelly: that's how i learn toy, comparing code
    May 31, 2015 at 1:21 PM - Mike Kelly: and then measuring the thread pitch i put my head in front of the camera for like half the clip
    May 31, 2015 at 1:21 PM - donhuevo: you could dub robo over it
    May 31, 2015 at 1:21 PM - donhuevo: but if you do, make it really obvious
    May 31, 2015 at 1:52 PM - jbigler1986: http://m.ustream.tv/channel/jbigler1986
    May 31, 2015 at 2:07 PM - Sims Reaper: Starting tomorrow I have three days to run buck wild with my Robo. Can't wait. Gonna print off some of MK's feet extensions, build an enclosure (hopefully with a heat lamp) and get this ABS nailed down
    May 31, 2015 at 2:07 PM - Mike Kelly: btw don i'm printing the plate at 8.2" x 5" http://www.ustream.tv/channel/ride-along-my-robo-3d
    May 31, 2015 at 2:12 PM - Mike Kelly: i'm not too happy with the intro anyways
    May 31, 2015 at 2:12 PM - Mike Kelly: i think i've heard before that you should do the intro last, i can see why now
    May 31, 2015 at 2:13 PM - Sims Reaper: Mike, that plate was done on printinz plate cover, I enclosed with ABS?
    May 31, 2015 at 2:14 PM - Mike Kelly: it's not enclosed right now but my garage is like 80F
    May 31, 2015 at 2:14 PM - Sims Reaper: Sorry, * not enclosed
    May 31, 2015 at 2:14 PM - Mike Kelly: though I am running an AC in there
    May 31, 2015 at 2:15 PM - Sims Reaper: It looks good though. Hard see in the video but looks like no warping at all
    May 31, 2015 at 2:15 PM - jbigler1986: Sims are you needing to have parts in ABS?
    May 31, 2015 at 2:15 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah no warping now
    May 31, 2015 at 2:15 PM - Stephen Capistron: I've made a bootleg enclosure using hobby foam board and construction adhesive. works pretty good so far.
    May 31, 2015 at 2:15 PM - Mike Kelly: it's on a 100C bed but that's probably overkill
    May 31, 2015 at 2:15 PM - Sims Reaper: Ya. I would really like to work with ABS. Need finished looking parts and sanding is easiest way to go
    May 31, 2015 at 2:16 PM - Stephen Capistron: only thing i'm not liking about abs is the smell
    May 31, 2015 at 2:16 PM - Mike Kelly: the blue i have from robo smells much stronger than the black eSun
    May 31, 2015 at 2:16 PM - Mike Kelly: but i only smell it if i open the enclosure
    May 31, 2015 at 2:17 PM - Mike Kelly: god i hate how shitty solidworks is at importing STL
    May 31, 2015 at 2:18 PM - Stephen Capistron: i know you love SW, but you should see if you can get a trial of creo elements direct to handle your giant / multi part assemblies
    May 31, 2015 at 2:19 PM - Mike Kelly: does it have routing
    May 31, 2015 at 2:19 PM - Stephen Capistron: wire routing
    May 31, 2015 at 2:19 PM - Mike Kelly: pipe routing
    May 31, 2015 at 2:19 PM - Mike Kelly: so it automatically adds elbows
    May 31, 2015 at 2:19 PM - Mike Kelly: etc
    May 31, 2015 at 2:19 PM - Stephen Capistron: which i imagine would work for pipes as well, as far as the software is concerned, a pipe is a really big wire
    May 31, 2015 at 2:19 PM - jbigler1986: Yeah that's another reason hate ABfnS. The smell is horrible
    May 31, 2015 at 2:20 PM - Stephen Capistron: oh, i don't know about the elbows
    May 31, 2015 at 2:20 PM - Mike Kelly: solidworks routing is awesome, adds elbows, weld gaps, etc
    May 31, 2015 at 2:20 PM - Mike Kelly: that's really the only reason i'm so dependant
    May 31, 2015 at 2:20 PM - Stephen Capistron: time to vpn in and see what routing is like
    May 31, 2015 at 2:24 PM - Mike Kelly: brief summary of what routing is good for
    May 31, 2015 at 2:26 PM - Stephen Capistron: http://www.ptc.com/product/creo/3d-cad/parametric/extension/piping-and-cabling
    May 31, 2015 at 2:26 PM - Stephen Capistron: looks like pipe routing is an option with their parametric design software
    May 31, 2015 at 2:28 PM - Stephen Capistron: At work we've done a lot of automation tools and it seems to handle the files pretty darn well with all the fasteners and everything in there
    May 31, 2015 at 2:31 PM - Stephen Capistron: so it works a lot like the sheetmetal add-ins. in that it forces the bend radius and offsets and can set how you want your seam constructed and stuff
    May 31, 2015 at 2:41 PM - Mike Kelly: isn't creo the revision to ProE
    May 31, 2015 at 2:43 PM - Stephen Capistron: yup
    May 31, 2015 at 2:45 PM - Stephen Capistron: i like the elements direct, but it does lead you to have some funky spacing on items. You'll wind up with a base plate that is 253mm wide just because it looked good.
    May 31, 2015 at 2:46 PM - Mike Glass: prototype printed and snapped together perfect [​IMG]

    May 31, 2015 at 2:47 PM - Mike Kelly: looks sweet
    May 31, 2015 at 2:47 PM - Mike Glass: almost done cutting it out on the cnc one more piece.
    May 31, 2015 at 2:48 PM - Mike Kelly: sickness, can't wait to see it
    May 31, 2015 at 2:48 PM - Stephen Capistron: that looks great
    May 31, 2015 at 2:48 PM - Mike Glass: have to clean up the tabs and then router the edges
    May 31, 2015 at 2:48 PM - jbigler1986: Gonna stain it?
    May 31, 2015 at 2:49 PM - Mike Kelly: tiny bit of warping on my print, it's because the corner was a bit too high on the first layer
    May 31, 2015 at 2:50 PM - Mike Glass: my bed is not flat so have to figure it out after im done just have to cut a little deeper on one end. next on gonna take awhile with the pocket cutting.
    May 31, 2015 at 2:50 PM - jbigler1986: Damn abs. That's still really good though
    May 31, 2015 at 2:51 PM - Mike Kelly: http://www.mercurynews.com/business/ci_28221648/100-000-check-awaits-mystery-apple-i-donor omg this is so sad
    May 31, 2015 at 2:55 PM - jbigler1986: That's nuts. I need to find one of those
    May 31, 2015 at 2:55 PM - jbigler1986: She will be found I'm sure
    May 31, 2015 at 2:57 PM - Mike Glass: Mike when you going build on of these multitools?
    May 31, 2015 at 2:59 PM - Mike Glass: thinking on putting my laminate router on here for faster cutting, not sure if its too heavy or not.
    May 31, 2015 at 3:05 PM - Mike Glass: http://vaughnlive.tv/coolreactions see if that works from this tablet
    May 31, 2015 at 3:09 PM - Stephen Capistron: Counter weight with a pulley from the ceiling
    May 31, 2015 at 3:12 PM - Stephen Capistron: you'd still have to deal with the mass when you cahnge directions in the x/y, but it should deal with any sag out in the middle
    May 31, 2015 at 3:14 PM - Mike Glass: is on 3/4 pipe, should be fine really
    May 31, 2015 at 3:15 PM - Stephen Capistron: does the autolevel math make a 2d or 3d surface?
    May 31, 2015 at 3:17 PM - Mike Glass: I dont have autolevel working right now
    May 31, 2015 at 3:17 PM - Mike Glass: I would assume both though
    May 31, 2015 at 3:18 PM - Mike Glass: I should of used a bigger slot bit bit 1/8 is taking awhile
    May 31, 2015 at 3:18 PM - Stephen Capistron: Suppose I could trick the robo into thinking there is a big hump in the middle of the bed and see what happens
    May 31, 2015 at 3:19 PM - Mike Glass: yea, this is just built just like a robo, except the 1/32 stepping
    May 31, 2015 at 3:23 PM - daniel871: Well, my ups is getting tested right now. Power went out at 6 and the robo is trucking along like nothing is wrong.
    May 31, 2015 at 3:24 PM - daniel871: 70 minutes of charge left at current workload according to the ups display, we'll see how accurate it is.
    May 31, 2015 at 3:26 PM - Mike Glass: thunderstorms dan?
    May 31, 2015 at 3:27 PM - Mike Glass: SC is my feed working? or did you try?
    May 31, 2015 at 3:30 PM - Stephen Capistron: i have not tried. let me see
    May 31, 2015 at 3:31 PM - Stephen Capistron: yup, i see a tiny little spindle going back and forth
    May 31, 2015 at 3:31 PM - Stephen Capistron: i see what you mean about going to a larger cutter
    May 31, 2015 at 3:41 PM - Mike Kelly: Mike I'm thinking I'll start printing the parts for the multitool this week
    May 31, 2015 at 3:43 PM - Mike Kelly: I wish Vaughn used html5
    May 31, 2015 at 3:52 PM - Mike Glass: yea no phone support, thats the only think I dont like about vaughn
    May 31, 2015 at 3:56 PM - Mike Kelly: yup
    May 31, 2015 at 3:56 PM - Mike Kelly: then again i pretty much only check my prints from splashtop
    May 31, 2015 at 3:57 PM - Mike Glass: not sure if this motor going make it..lol sounding kinda sick
    May 31, 2015 at 3:57 PM - Mike Glass: just turned it down seems better now
    May 31, 2015 at 3:58 PM - Mike Kelly: the spindel?
    May 31, 2015 at 3:58 PM - Mike Glass: yea, just a cheapy habor freight one
    May 31, 2015 at 3:59 PM - Mike Glass: the actual head piece is a fornan
    May 31, 2015 at 4:00 PM - Mike Glass: I have it on a light dimmer control, seems to work.
    May 31, 2015 at 4:01 PM - Mike Kelly: lmao
    May 31, 2015 at 4:01 PM - Mike Kelly: that's not ideal for AC control but it'll mostly work
    May 31, 2015 at 4:02 PM - Mike Kelly: you really want a VFD or Variac but those aren't exactly cheap
    May 31, 2015 at 4:02 PM - Mike Glass: yea, but remember he tried to keep it as cheap as possible
    May 31, 2015 at 4:03 PM - Mike Kelly: totally
    May 31, 2015 at 4:03 PM - Mike Kelly: that's how i control the fan speed in my bathroom
    May 31, 2015 at 4:03 PM - Mike Glass: im gettting some good video to post for him, he always get excited when I post a new one.
    May 31, 2015 at 4:04 PM - Mike Kelly: i really need to make one, i'm super jealous of that
    May 31, 2015 at 4:04 PM - Mike Kelly: guess no time like the present since that print finished
    May 31, 2015 at 4:04 PM - Mike Glass: I still like my 3d printer though, this well be fun to make the big "stuff"
    May 31, 2015 at 4:05 PM - Mike Kelly: which parts should be black... hmm
    May 31, 2015 at 4:05 PM - Mike Glass: this pocket cutting is really neat, it hones out the inside then goes around the perimeter to clean it up.
    May 31, 2015 at 4:05 PM - Mike Kelly: i just like working with wood
    May 31, 2015 at 4:06 PM - Mike Glass: Yea, I have been working with cheap wood for stereo boxes for the first 10 years, this last has been nice stuff.
    May 31, 2015 at 4:07 PM - Mike Kelly: man i REALLY need to finish that video
    May 31, 2015 at 4:07 PM - Mike Kelly: like 4 questions today could have been answered with it
    May 31, 2015 at 4:07 PM - Mike Glass: same basic stuff im sure
    May 31, 2015 at 4:08 PM - Mike Glass: the biggest is when first setting it up, dam autolevel switches always a problem not being correct place
    May 31, 2015 at 4:09 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah that's the first thing i cover
    May 31, 2015 at 4:10 PM - Mike Glass: its a no brainer but to a newby its great to have a resource, I watched and looked around for a week before I got mine and ended up with that problem.
    May 31, 2015 at 4:10 PM - jbigler1986: Don't use Mattercontrol at all either. You should cover that
    May 31, 2015 at 4:10 PM - Mike Glass: haha, JB the one that loved it the most:)
    May 31, 2015 at 4:11 PM - jbigler1986: I loved it for 2 days.
    May 31, 2015 at 4:11 PM - Mike Glass: I really liked that it keeped track of your printing, I had over 200 hours before I gave it up for cura
    May 31, 2015 at 4:12 PM - Mike Kelly: jb do you have a picture of the order of your camera mount
    May 31, 2015 at 4:12 PM - jbigler1986: Then tried to print a part that was actually to large for the bed and it didn't tell me. It would slice and everything then just not start the print. As soon as I saw that I threw it in the recycle bin
    May 31, 2015 at 4:13 PM - Mike Glass: I Got 30 more days of warranty..woot
    May 31, 2015 at 4:13 PM - jbigler1986: Yeah let me take one
    May 31, 2015 at 4:13 PM - Mike Kelly: heh nice mike
    May 31, 2015 at 4:13 PM - Mike Kelly: i think i might make my multicnc the invert color of his

    May 31, 2015 at 4:15 PM - jbigler1986: Yeah Feb
    May 31, 2015 at 4:15 PM - daniel871: Tree falls in the next county over and my power goes out.

    May 31, 2015 at 4:17 PM - Mike Glass: Jb the picture is to small I can see it..lol
    May 31, 2015 at 4:17 PM - jbigler1986: Yeah my phones camera is amazing. Resolution is ridiculous if I don't change it
    May 31, 2015 at 4:18 PM - jbigler1986: Is that good enough MK?
    May 31, 2015 at 4:18 PM - Mike Kelly: yup that answers it
    May 31, 2015 at 4:18 PM - Mike Glass: I cant even see it on this tablet, all I see is white..
    May 31, 2015 at 4:18 PM - Mike Kelly: do you have a link for the mount piece again
    May 31, 2015 at 4:18 PM - Mike Kelly: the one you downloaded
    May 31, 2015 at 4:18 PM - jbigler1986: Yeah. 1 sec
    May 31, 2015 at 4:20 PM - Mike Glass: almost 4 pockets done, getting close.

    May 31, 2015 at 4:50 PM - Mike Kelly: jb is it just me or is your design a little.... excessive
    May 31, 2015 at 4:51 PM - Mike Kelly: it's about halfway done uploading
    May 31, 2015 at 4:55 PM - Mike Kelly: had to upload it as a .mov so you could stream it, put it at like 4.8 gigs
    May 31, 2015 at 5:01 PM - Stephen Capistron: uploading to dropbox?
    May 31, 2015 at 5:01 PM - Mike Glass: yikes
    May 31, 2015 at 5:02 PM - Mike Kelly: nope we have a pogoplug
    May 31, 2015 at 5:02 PM - Mike Kelly: anyone else want to watch?
    May 31, 2015 at 5:02 PM - jbigler1986: I had different ideas but it didn't work out with the parts I made. So then I mounted it the way I did. Works great though
    May 31, 2015 at 5:06 PM - Stephen Capistron: what size screws hold the extruder on? M3 x 40mm?
    May 31, 2015 at 5:10 PM - Mike Kelly: 25
    May 31, 2015 at 5:11 PM - Stephen Capistron: sweet, i was ordering a bunch off mcmaster anyways
    May 31, 2015 at 5:12 PM - Stephen Capistron: hmmmm, what else do i need?
    May 31, 2015 at 5:14 PM - Mike Glass: beer?
    May 31, 2015 at 5:14 PM - jbigler1986: For?
    May 31, 2015 at 5:16 PM - Mike Kelly: why would you buy them from mcmaster
    May 31, 2015 at 5:16 PM - Mike Kelly: try boltsdepot or mrmetric
    May 31, 2015 at 5:39 PM - jbigler1986: holy hell. 5gb
    May 31, 2015 at 6:03 PM - Stephen Capistron: quality from those places any good? Or are they Robo quality hardware?
    May 31, 2015 at 6:13 PM - Mike Kelly: I like the quality. I bought all stainless though
    May 31, 2015 at 6:13 PM - Mike Kelly: Only thing steel is good for is magnetic tips
    May 31, 2015 at 6:28 PM - Mike Kelly: Jb if that takes too long I'll try a different codec
    May 31, 2015 at 7:18 PM - jbigler1986: It's just the site itself. It shouldn't take long for me if the server would be faster
    May 31, 2015 at 7:18 PM - jbigler1986: This thing is a bitch to assemble
    May 31, 2015 at 7:19 PM - jbigler1986: Snapped 2 pins assembling it already. Lol
    May 31, 2015 at 7:34 PM - Mike Kelly: i think that's because you're pulling from my internet
    May 31, 2015 at 7:35 PM - Mike Kelly: you can just get the smaller one i sent you from dropbox
    May 31, 2015 at 7:36 PM - Mike Kelly: which i think you can also watch from
    May 31, 2015 at 7:43 PM - jbigler1986: Oh well. I will wait
    May 31, 2015 at 7:46 PM - jbigler1986: Ahhh. Snapped another one.
    May 31, 2015 at 7:56 PM - Mike Kelly: the quality won't be any better so i wouldn't bother with the big one
    May 31, 2015 at 8:07 PM - Mike Glass: [​IMG] well, it went together perfect, so jacked.
    May 31, 2015 at 8:15 PM - Mike Kelly: that owns
    May 31, 2015 at 8:15 PM - Mike Kelly: whats it say?

    May 31, 2015 at 8:19 PM - Bill Monroe: back
    May 31, 2015 at 8:19 PM - Mike Glass: guess I need to design the side pins that hold it together.
    May 31, 2015 at 8:20 PM - Mike Kelly: ah
    May 31, 2015 at 8:21 PM - Mike Kelly: now let's see it full!
    May 31, 2015 at 8:22 PM - Mike Glass: cant believe everything fit together perfect on both projects.
    May 31, 2015 at 8:24 PM - Mike Glass: PRinted?
    May 31, 2015 at 8:24 PM - Mike Glass: I drank all of them..lol
    May 31, 2015 at 8:24 PM - Mike Kelly: hahaha
    May 31, 2015 at 8:25 PM - Mike Glass: ok only 5, tried to do one beer per hole..lol
    May 31, 2015 at 8:26 PM - Mike Kelly: lol
    May 31, 2015 at 8:26 PM - Mike Kelly: just put a camera on a tripod, take 6 pictures with a beer in each spot
    May 31, 2015 at 8:27 PM - Mike Glass: Wish it was not raining out so I could dye it.
    May 31, 2015 at 8:30 PM - Mike Kelly: what color
    May 31, 2015 at 8:32 PM - Mike Glass: I have blue, red, black, yellow, or white, maybe black and red.
    May 31, 2015 at 8:34 PM - Mike Kelly: wow
    May 31, 2015 at 8:34 PM - Mike Kelly: what do you use for dyes
    May 31, 2015 at 8:34 PM - Mike Glass: their logo is yellow and red so maybe that will work. The dyes for for sign making, you usally dont use paint.
    May 31, 2015 at 8:35 PM - Mike Glass: although not sure how it will work on MDF..lol
    May 31, 2015 at 8:35 PM - Mike Kelly: ah
    May 31, 2015 at 8:35 PM - Mike Kelly: http://cl.ly/image/0f290A2c2D2y
    May 31, 2015 at 8:35 PM - Mike Kelly: this is interesting..
    May 31, 2015 at 8:37 PM - Mike Kelly: some weird splashtop rendering thing i guess
    May 31, 2015 at 8:37 PM - Mike Glass: wow it senses the heat bed..lol
    May 31, 2015 at 8:40 PM - Mike Kelly: that would be a cool but totally useless feature
    May 31, 2015 at 8:42 PM - Mike Glass: sucky, didnt load my cam software when I got the new computer, now I get to find the disc.
    May 31, 2015 at 8:43 PM - Mike Kelly: the best part of a new pc, finding all the damn software
    May 31, 2015 at 8:50 PM - Mike Glass: ugg dl like is dead on sony's site, maybe I have a copy somewhere.
    May 31, 2015 at 8:59 PM - jbigler1986: Looks good. Those e's look like a pain to work with
