May 31, 2015 9:07 PM - Sims Reaper: Hey guys
May 31, 2015 9:08 PM - Sims Reaper: So with the edited firmware and raised bed temp, I wanted to get MK's feet extensions on asap... starting out well
May 31, 2015 9:08 PM - Sims Reaper:
May 31, 2015 9:09 PM - Sims Reaper: Thats with the base layer done and just starting the infill. Lowered my extruder temp to 220... was running at 245 before, so I'm really hoping that helps with the warping
May 31, 2015 9:10 PM - jbigler1986: MK made feet extensions?
May 31, 2015 9:10 PM - Sims Reaper: was it not him? checking now
May 31, 2015 9:11 PM - Sims Reaper: Sorry I was mistaken
May 31, 2015 9:11 PM - jbigler1986: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:681876
May 31, 2015 9:11 PM - Sims Reaper: They were uploaded to Thingiverse by tonycstech
May 31, 2015 9:12 PM - jbigler1986: OK. Yeah MK made some. I would stick with the ones you are printing. It raises it a good amount
May 31, 2015 9:14 PM - Sims Reaper: I spent a good time admiring MK's enclosure, and thinking of how I could rig one up tomorrow
May 31, 2015 9:14 PM - Sims Reaper: So his name popped into my head there
May 31, 2015 9:14 PM - Mike Glass: I use saran wrap.
May 31, 2015 9:15 PM - jbigler1986: Just don't print with abs and you won't need to worry about it
May 31, 2015 9:15 PM - Sims Reaper: This is the biggest print I've done so far. Closest was the above case spool holder, but that was PLA.
May 31, 2015 9:15 PM - Mike Glass: you shush JB, your no adventurer
May 31, 2015 9:16 PM - Sims Reaper: haha, but just think of the benefits if I figure it out
May 31, 2015 9:16 PM - jbigler1986: I used a shirt and a cardboard box before. It made the abs spell even worse. It sucked
May 31, 2015 9:16 PM - jbigler1986: What are the benefits?
May 31, 2015 9:17 PM - Mike Glass: well for starters it warps..lol
May 31, 2015 9:17 PM - Mike Glass: but so does the expensive xt.
May 31, 2015 9:17 PM - jbigler1986: ABfnS? Noooo
May 31, 2015 9:18 PM - Sims Reaper: I want to make so things for my father-in-laws truck, so high temp tolerance is important
May 31, 2015 9:18 PM - jbigler1986: Honestly the smell is right up there with warping on why I don't use it
May 31, 2015 9:18 PM - Mike Glass: if its in an engine compartment or in the sun, then ABS is the only why to fly
May 31, 2015 9:18 PM - Sims Reaper: I actually can barely smell this stuff. Its the white Robo branded ABS
May 31, 2015 9:19 PM - jbigler1986: Carbon fiber filament?
May 31, 2015 9:19 PM - jbigler1986: How does that hold up to heat? JW
May 31, 2015 9:19 PM - Sims Reaper: That seems like it could be awesome jb, but its so expensive
May 31, 2015 9:19 PM - Mike Glass: The hatchbox stuff I have has some odor, but not the sainsmart at least not strong enough to smell
May 31, 2015 9:19 PM - Sims Reaper: How am I supposed to build a full ironman suit from that????
May 31, 2015 9:20 PM - jbigler1986: I haven't had a reason to use anything besides PLA. I have some taulman 910 that I still haven't tried out
May 31, 2015 9:21 PM - Sims Reaper: I ordered some 'UGLY FLEX' filament. Really want to try that out
May 31, 2015 9:21 PM - Mike Glass: Im happy with the pla, I just like to make my prototypes with abs, its more forgiving with bridging
May 31, 2015 9:22 PM - jbigler1986: Might pick up some flex filament from fry's.
May 31, 2015 9:22 PM - Sims Reaper: Anyone else here Canadian btw?
May 31, 2015 9:22 PM - jbigler1986: Make am ice cube tray or something to try it on
May 31, 2015 9:22 PM - Mike Glass: oh yea for your DG.
May 31, 2015 9:23 PM - jbigler1986: DG?
May 31, 2015 9:23 PM - Mike Glass: Dildo Generator
May 31, 2015 9:23 PM - Sims Reaper: Try to make some really neat and customized 3D Ice molds
May 31, 2015 9:24 PM - jbigler1986: Lol. That site makes me laugh. I haven't actually been to it in a few months. Just thinking about it makes me laugh though
May 31, 2015 9:24 PM - jbigler1986: Crazy fucking people
May 31, 2015 9:24 PM - Mike Glass: I have people at work wanting phone cases, but not sure if the stock robo will handle flex
May 31, 2015 9:25 PM - jbigler1986: It should
May 31, 2015 9:25 PM - Sims Reaper: from what I see on the filament requirements, I cant see any reason it wouldnt
May 31, 2015 9:26 PM - jbigler1986: Not sure if barnacles had the e3d yet or not when he printed with flex
May 31, 2015 9:27 PM - Sims Reaper: well the feet are still running strong... I'm starting to get my hopes up, just a little, but 4 hrs to go so I'm gonna go get my Witcher on. Talk to you later.
May 31, 2015 9:27 PM - Mike Glass: dont you need a ptfe tube for it to work?
May 31, 2015 9:27 PM - Mike Glass: see ya sims
May 31, 2015 9:28 PM - jbigler1986: Not to my knowledge. Which is limited on flex filament
May 31, 2015 9:28 PM - Mike Glass: they have a new one called semi flex that should work for sure.
Jun 1, 2015 3:25 AM - Mike Glass: What? im the first one up?
Jun 1, 2015 4:36 AM - Stephen Capistron: i guess so
Jun 1, 2015 4:37 AM - Stephen Capistron: well i was up over an hour and a half ago, but don't get on here till i'm at the office.
Jun 1, 2015 4:50 AM - Mike Glass: been up since 2am ugg
Jun 1, 2015 4:53 AM - Stephen Capistron: why?
Jun 1, 2015 4:56 AM - Mike Glass: couldnt sleep, dog making noise, kid in bed, cats running around.
Jun 1, 2015 5:00 AM - Stephen Capistron: Throw some peepers or cicaida's going to town and you'd have quite the night
Jun 1, 2015 5:03 AM - Bill Monroe: mornin

Jun 1, 2015 5:22 AM - Mike Glass: could be better up all night, what you building?
Jun 1, 2015 5:23 AM - JeffTheMess: 10 of 12 leaves of an iris
Jun 1, 2015 5:24 AM - Mike Glass: how long do those take
Jun 1, 2015 5:25 AM - JeffTheMess: about 4 hours
Jun 1, 2015 5:26 AM - JeffTheMess: the other last two should be about an hour
Jun 1, 2015 5:26 AM - JeffTheMess: https://grabcad.com/library/mechanism-of-shutter-1
Jun 1, 2015 5:26 AM - JeffTheMess: had to edit the crap out of it....it wasn't meant for printing
Jun 1, 2015 5:28 AM - Mike Glass: haha, so you have to cut them out?
Jun 1, 2015 5:30 AM - JeffTheMess: yeah, had to add tolerance to all the pieces....but I already printed one out complete so this time it was easy to print a second iris
Jun 1, 2015 5:32 AM - JeffTheMess: oh yeah and adding gear teeth to them
Jun 1, 2015 5:33 AM - Mike Glass: how big is it going to be?
Jun 1, 2015 5:33 AM - JeffTheMess: the ID is about 4 inches
Jun 1, 2015 5:54 AM - Bill Monroe: gads,, I need to make a Frys run for filament
Jun 1, 2015 5:58 AM - JeffTheMess: Im jealous I can't drive somewhere to filament
Jun 1, 2015 5:59 AM - Bill Monroe: i've not found an online source for Shaxon, or I'd just order it
Jun 1, 2015 5:59 AM - Bill Monroe: believe me, I dont look forward to Frys
Jun 1, 2015 6:01 AM - JeffTheMess: one day we will have same day delivery for everything, without any increase on shipping
Jun 1, 2015 6:02 AM - Bill Monroe: I got that now with some AMazon stuff
Jun 1, 2015 6:03 AM - JeffTheMess: Bill you use s3d?
Jun 1, 2015 6:04 AM - Bill Monroe: why yes,.. yes I do
Jun 1, 2015 6:05 AM - JeffTheMess: would you happen to know how to reduce the area of raft and brim, it seams.....wasteful
Jun 1, 2015 6:06 AM - JeffTheMess: if would would see my live feed you can see what I mean
Jun 1, 2015 6:06 AM - Bill Monroe: in the tab for Additions are the setting for those
Jun 1, 2015 6:07 AM - JeffTheMess: cool, I have to look because that kills me to see so much wasted filament
Jun 1, 2015 6:08 AM - Bill Monroe: are those seperate .stl or did you make a single model with all the parts?
Jun 1, 2015 6:10 AM - JeffTheMess: I loaded one at a time into s3d ... but I had the same issue for a single circle piece I printed
Jun 1, 2015 6:10 AM - Bill Monroe: ok, why use a raft at all? for those parts, I'd just print right on the glass

 

Jun 1, 2015 6:11 AM - JeffTheMess: when I first got the s3d those settings where preset there...so I said if it aint broke dont fix it, so you think I should just take it off and just stick to aquanet?
Jun 1, 2015 6:13 AM - Bill Monroe: ah.. ya, those parts dont really need a raft.. next time just uncheck the box
Jun 1, 2015 6:13 AM - daniel871: I've never printed anything with a raft, but I've had more issues with the power grid than actual print problems.
Jun 1, 2015 6:13 AM - Bill Monroe: rafts will save you bacon on some parts.. but nice large-aea flat ones a frat isnt needed
Jun 1, 2015 6:14 AM - Bill Monroe: or a raft either
Jun 1, 2015 6:14 AM - daniel871: So small object printing has been what I've been doing.
Jun 1, 2015 6:14 AM - JeffTheMess: cool thats what I love doing save bacon!
Jun 1, 2015 6:14 AM - Stephen Capistron: only reason to use a raft on a part like the iris is to prevent any sort of elephant's foot
Jun 1, 2015 6:14 AM - daniel871: I think large objects with a bunch of small base points and bridging/support work might benefit from a raft, but something that starts with a solid flat base probably doesn't need one.
Jun 1, 2015 6:15 AM - Stephen Capistron: of course a nice little .5mm chamfer is also a solution to that.
Jun 1, 2015 6:15 AM - JeffTheMess: nice, I like hearing that
Jun 1, 2015 6:15 AM - Bill Monroe: you can put a chamfer on the part to fix ex-wife foot
Jun 1, 2015 6:16 AM - daniel871: Found out my UPS is good for about an hour of operation if the power goes out, which isn't enough to finish a print or allow the power company time to restore power.
Jun 1, 2015 6:16 AM - daniel871: :/
Jun 1, 2015 6:17 AM - JeffTheMess: I love how Bill always solves his problems and then refers his problems to the ex-wife lol
Jun 1, 2015 6:17 AM - Bill Monroe: i've printed complex parts that were basically hovering with just supports toucing the surface.. enter the bacon-saving raft...
Jun 1, 2015 6:17 AM - JeffTheMess: should raft be used for abs?
Jun 1, 2015 6:18 AM - Bill Monroe: ex-wife was the center of the universe's problem in my life for 20 years
Jun 1, 2015 6:18 AM - daniel871: Seeing divorce people make me glad I've never gotten married.
Jun 1, 2015 6:18 AM - Bill Monroe: use rafts the same way for all materials
Jun 1, 2015 6:18 AM - Bill Monroe: i'm not divorced now....
Jun 1, 2015 6:18 AM - daniel871: They're always so bitter.
Jun 1, 2015 6:19 AM - Bill Monroe: I'm on wife 2.0
Jun 1, 2015 6:19 AM - JeffTheMess: Daniel will find out that its good finding a good women
Jun 1, 2015 6:19 AM - daniel871: Never said it wasn't, but dehumanizing a woman like she's a version of software seems a little harsh.
Jun 1, 2015 6:20 AM - JeffTheMess: if you ever had a crazy woman then you would too lol
Jun 1, 2015 6:21 AM - daniel871: I usually leave when the crazy is worse than mine.
Jun 1, 2015 6:21 AM - Bill Monroe: Daniel will have to settle for second best.. I got the best one
Jun 1, 2015 6:21 AM - Bill Monroe:
Jun 1, 2015 6:22 AM - Bill Monroe: hmmmm ustream quit working for me
Jun 1, 2015 6:22 AM - daniel871: ustream is mad that you're posting pics of your Wife2.0 online.
Jun 1, 2015 6:23 AM - JeffTheMess: boooo
Jun 1, 2015 6:23 AM - Bill Monroe: that's the only pic she'll let me share
Jun 1, 2015 6:23 AM - Bill Monroe: oh.. wait.. there is goes.
Jun 1, 2015 6:23 AM - Bill Monroe: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/bills-lab
Jun 1, 2015 6:24 AM - daniel871: Channeling Patricia Richardson is quite a feat, I'll admit.
Jun 1, 2015 6:25 AM - daniel871: Does anybody stream running a volcano add-on?
Jun 1, 2015 6:25 AM - Bill Monroe: hmmm I see what you mean, but the rest of her is definitely not mrs home improvment
Jun 1, 2015 6:26 AM - daniel871: Or post on a Youtube Channel? (I may do the second one at some point if nobody else does it)
Jun 1, 2015 6:26 AM - daniel871: I was wondering if anybody else remembered that show or if I was officially part of the Old Crew or something.
Jun 1, 2015 6:27 AM - Bill Monroe:
Jun 1, 2015 6:29 AM - daniel871: Though there's also the old show Double Trouble, which is really weird to look back on now.
Jun 1, 2015 6:29 AM - Bill Monroe: ya.. especially since Stevie Ray Vaughn isnt in it
Jun 1, 2015 6:31 AM - daniel871: Sorry, only Stevie singer I care about has the last name of Nicks.
Jun 1, 2015 6:31 AM - JeffTheMess: what you printing Bill
Jun 1, 2015 6:31 AM - Bill Monroe: its a mount for an Arduino Mega and an LCD screen
Jun 1, 2015 6:32 AM - JeffTheMess: nice
Jun 1, 2015 6:33 AM - Bill Monroe: making a laser speed gun for cabinet drawers
Jun 1, 2015 6:37 AM - JeffTheMess:
Jun 1, 2015 6:37 AM - Bill Monroe:
Jun 1, 2015 6:40 AM - Bill Monroe: god help mne
Jun 1, 2015 6:41 AM - JeffTheMess: wrong forum
Jun 1, 2015 6:41 AM - Bill Monroe: heh 2.0 got some yoga shorts in the mail... asked me what I thought
Jun 1, 2015 6:42 AM - Bill Monroe: back in 20 mins.. maybe
Jun 1, 2015 6:42 AM - JeffTheMess: want to be more flexible for you?
Jun 1, 2015 6:42 AM - Bill Monroe: shes been doing yoga before it was popular
Jun 1, 2015 6:43 AM - daniel871: Only 20 minutes?
Jun 1, 2015 6:44 AM - JeffTheMess: Well it started getting popular in cali so i would doubt it
Jun 1, 2015 6:44 AM - JeffTheMess: wouldn't*
Jun 1, 2015 6:45 AM - daniel871: Yoga's been popular since the 1950's, so I kind of doubt that.
Jun 1, 2015 6:48 AM - JeffTheMess: true......you printing anything dan?
Jun 1, 2015 6:48 AM - Mike Glass: or is your power out
Jun 1, 2015 6:50 AM - daniel871: Power is back, but since we're supposed to have storms all week I'm not planning to print anything.
Jun 1, 2015 6:50 AM - daniel871: Figure power outages will just get worse.
Jun 1, 2015 6:51 AM - daniel871: Might print some small models this evening if the power is still on (miniatures in Laywood and retrying the SST PLA).
Jun 1, 2015 6:52 AM - JeffTheMess: cool invest in a good UPS , if that is a frequently happens by you
Jun 1, 2015 6:53 AM - daniel871: I've got one already.
Jun 1, 2015 6:53 AM - daniel871: Is there one with enough reserve that can run a Robo for several hours?
Jun 1, 2015 6:54 AM - daniel871: The one I got can only keep it going for about an hour, which is a little frustrating.
Jun 1, 2015 6:54 AM - JeffTheMess: ofcourse there is....it will destroy most bank accounts but ofcourse
Jun 1, 2015 6:55 AM - JeffTheMess: Or you can make renewable power if you are willing to go that far
Jun 1, 2015 7:00 AM - daniel871: I just need something with a larger reserve of power. It has plenty of throughput capacity, but not enough actual storage to keep the Robo running.
Jun 1, 2015 7:01 AM - JeffTheMess: add more lead batteries? idk if most are willing to change what they have
Jun 1, 2015 7:02 AM - JeffTheMess: how much does the robo take?
Jun 1, 2015 7:03 AM - JeffTheMess: 360W?
Jun 1, 2015 7:05 AM - Mike Kelly: morning
Jun 1, 2015 7:06 AM - JeffTheMess: Morning Mike
Jun 1, 2015 7:07 AM - daniel871: It seemed to spike to about 500w when doing rapid movements while extruding.
Jun 1, 2015 7:07 AM - daniel871: But I'm not sure how accurate that was as the LCD on my UPS would lag behind recalculating run times.
Jun 1, 2015 7:08 AM - JeffTheMess: you will need a real heavy hitter
Jun 1, 2015 7:08 AM - daniel871: When it was doing fast 90mm/s moves the LCD would claim 38min remaining time, then it would go back to 70 minutes when the Robo slowed down for perimeter runs, it was all over the place.
Jun 1, 2015 7:08 AM - Mike Kelly: i'd suggest pausing the print next time
Jun 1, 2015 7:09 AM - Mike Kelly: and letting it cool
Jun 1, 2015 7:09 AM - daniel871: That works if I'm not printing overnight or while at work.
Jun 1, 2015 7:10 AM - Mike Kelly: right
Jun 1, 2015 7:10 AM - Mike Kelly: just if you notice it really
Jun 1, 2015 7:10 AM - daniel871: Yesterday was a test of the current UPS, which means I'll have plenty of time to pause it and let it cool while waiting for the power to come back on, but not so much if I'm not around.
Jun 1, 2015 7:10 AM - Mike Glass: morning MK
Jun 1, 2015 7:11 AM - daniel871: Right now I'm on the APC selector page trying to figure out how many watts I should say I need for the Robo.
Jun 1, 2015 7:11 AM - JeffTheMess: you should go for 1.5x the peak of the robo Mike may know an estimate
Jun 1, 2015 7:12 AM - Mike Kelly: peak would be like 200W
Jun 1, 2015 7:12 AM - Mike Kelly: but realistically like 100W
Jun 1, 2015 7:13 AM - daniel871: Weird as hell, or the UPS is inaccurate on the load of the unit.
Jun 1, 2015 7:13 AM - daniel871: It claimed 500w spikes.
Jun 1, 2015 7:14 AM - JeffTheMess: yeah, according to robo website at 12v 30A would be about the peak from the power supply at about 360W
Jun 1, 2015 7:21 AM - Bill Monroe: back
Jun 1, 2015 7:21 AM - Mike Kelly: you're never gnna see it pull 360W though
Jun 1, 2015 7:21 AM - Mike Kelly: that's just the amp rating from the psu
Jun 1, 2015 7:22 AM - JeffTheMess: yeah, that probably why they choose it
Jun 1, 2015 7:23 AM - Mike Kelly: the bed is like 140-150W at best but I think it's more like 130W

 

Jun 1, 2015 7:23 AM - Mike Kelly: then the other rail is at most 60W because it uses a 5A polyfused
Jun 1, 2015 7:24 AM - JeffTheMess: cool, so dan your ups comes with a lead battery inside already?
Jun 1, 2015 7:25 AM - daniel871: Hang on a sec and I'll link you to the one I have.
Jun 1, 2015 7:25 AM - Mike Kelly: then off the ramps are the LED's and 1 fan, which is probably less 10-15W
Jun 1, 2015 7:25 AM - daniel871: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000FBK3QK?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00
Jun 1, 2015 7:25 AM - daniel871: That's the UPS I'm using right now.
Jun 1, 2015 7:26 AM - daniel871: I have both my Robo and my PC on it, but only ever run one or the other on it (I shut the PC off and turn off the monitor if I'm running the Robo and vice-versa).
Jun 1, 2015 7:26 AM - JeffTheMess: your only getting about an hour?
Jun 1, 2015 7:26 AM - daniel871: 70 minutes.
Jun 1, 2015 7:27 AM - daniel871: The original estimate when the power first went out was about right.
Jun 1, 2015 7:27 AM - daniel871: The LCD display was constantly updating and changing though, so it probably ran itself down beeping about the power being out while the Robo did it's thing.
Jun 1, 2015 7:27 AM - Mike Glass: thats the same one I have
Jun 1, 2015 7:28 AM - Mike Glass: wait mines a tripplite but same power
Jun 1, 2015 7:28 AM - daniel871: So probably can't do much better than that, eh?
Jun 1, 2015 7:29 AM - daniel871: I was just wondering if they made one with a bigger reserve/larger battery storage that would still run a Robo, even if it was a lower capacity.
Jun 1, 2015 7:29 AM - Mike Kelly: tesla?
Jun 1, 2015 7:29 AM - daniel871: But you don't get that information off of the listing, it's all about capacity.
Jun 1, 2015 7:30 AM - JeffTheMess: Tesla will run a pretty penny
Jun 1, 2015 7:31 AM - Mike Kelly: buy a bunch of deep cycle batteries and run the system off them
Jun 1, 2015 7:31 AM - JeffTheMess: you can probably trick your system by adding more batteries in parallel to the
Jun 1, 2015 7:32 AM - Mike Kelly: that doesn't work jeff, UPC's hate that
Jun 1, 2015 7:32 AM - JeffTheMess: really I had it like that on my old system
Jun 1, 2015 7:32 AM - JeffTheMess: never had a problem
Jun 1, 2015 7:33 AM - Mike Kelly: hmm
Jun 1, 2015 7:33 AM - JeffTheMess: but mines was really old and stupid
Jun 1, 2015 7:34 AM - Mike Kelly: mine had a bunch of warnings about doing that
Jun 1, 2015 7:34 AM - Mike Kelly: maybe it's their way of upselling a larger unit
Jun 1, 2015 7:35 AM - JeffTheMess: ripping of warnings are my specialty
Jun 1, 2015 7:35 AM - jbigler1986: back
Jun 1, 2015 7:37 AM - JeffTheMess: hey jb
Jun 1, 2015 7:38 AM - jbigler1986: hello
Jun 1, 2015 7:44 AM - JeffTheMess: http://www.instructables.com/id/Rework-a-UPS-with-Massive-Capacity/ simple version
Jun 1, 2015 7:45 AM - Mike Kelly: that's like the apc i have
Jun 1, 2015 7:45 AM - Stephen Capistron: ugh. The city shut the water off to our building this morning, so I drove into the office, to work for two hours and then turn around and drive home to work from home for the rest of the day
Jun 1, 2015 7:46 AM - Mike Kelly: oh man what the hell
Jun 1, 2015 7:46 AM - Mike Kelly: that's really lame
Jun 1, 2015 7:46 AM - Mike Kelly: how long is your commute?
Jun 1, 2015 7:46 AM - Stephen Capistron: 45 each way
Jun 1, 2015 7:46 AM - JeffTheMess: ouch!
Jun 1, 2015 7:47 AM - Mike Kelly: ughhh f that noise
Jun 1, 2015 7:47 AM - Mike Kelly: also whatup jb, did the video transfer
Jun 1, 2015 7:47 AM - Stephen Capistron: no kidding
Jun 1, 2015 7:48 AM - jbigler1986: didn't check this morning. i'm sure it did. wife was watching the news (don't interrupt that)
Jun 1, 2015 7:49 AM - jbigler1986: pc is connected to tv if that was confusing
Jun 1, 2015 7:49 AM - Mike Kelly: gotcha
Jun 1, 2015 7:52 AM - Mike Kelly: TIL if you paste an image from your clipboard into a post it'll upload it for you
Jun 1, 2015 7:53 AM - daniel871: I'm thinking about this instructable from that other one you posted. http://www.instructables.com/id/Make-your-computer-UPS-last-for-hours-instead-of-m/
Jun 1, 2015 7:54 AM - Mike Kelly: buy a generator
Jun 1, 2015 7:55 AM - JeffTheMess: yeah just make you are comfortable with electronics
Jun 1, 2015 7:56 AM - JeffTheMess: boom a generator
Jun 1, 2015 7:57 AM - daniel871: A generator would cost a lot more than a battery of sufficient size wired in properly.
Jun 1, 2015 7:57 AM - daniel871: I've already got a solar charging setup for the batteries on my boat that keeps everything going.
Jun 1, 2015 7:58 AM - daniel871: Shouldv'e thought about applying that to this sooner.
Jun 1, 2015 7:59 AM - JeffTheMess: if you get alot of power outage, a generator wouldn't be a bad idea
Jun 1, 2015 7:59 AM - Mike Kelly: ^
Jun 1, 2015 7:59 AM - daniel871: Doesn't happen a whole lot, it's just that it's happened recently in timing with trying to run longer prints.
Jun 1, 2015 8:00 AM - daniel871: And I'd like to have some kind of backup system in place so I don't have to worry about it when weekend storms happen or something.
Jun 1, 2015 8:00 AM - Mike Kelly: man some people are really depressing with their seemingly helpless attitude
Jun 1, 2015 8:00 AM - daniel871: (that's less expensive than a home generator)
Jun 1, 2015 8:00 AM - Mike Kelly: #AtlantaProblems
Jun 1, 2015 8:01 AM - daniel871: What does Atlanta have to do with anything?
Jun 1, 2015 8:01 AM - Mike Kelly: http://www.amazon.com/PowerPro-5610...UTF8&qid=1433170934&sr=8-1&keywords=generator i kinda think you're not sure how much a generator costs
Jun 1, 2015 8:02 AM - Mike Kelly: nor how much deep cycle batteries cost
Jun 1, 2015 8:02 AM - daniel871: A generator that will detect a power outage and start itself.
Jun 1, 2015 8:02 AM - daniel871: Like the home backup systems out there.
Jun 1, 2015 8:03 AM - daniel871: (and the one Tesla is getting ready to sell)
Jun 1, 2015 8:03 AM - JeffTheMess: if there's a will there's a way
Jun 1, 2015 8:03 AM - Mike Kelly: ^
Jun 1, 2015 8:03 AM - Mike Glass: damn that is cheap for a gen
Jun 1, 2015 8:03 AM - Mike Kelly: right?
Jun 1, 2015 8:03 AM - Mike Kelly: you can get an electric start battery for like 200
Jun 1, 2015 8:04 AM - Mike Kelly: which is basically as much as a deep cycle battery costs
Jun 1, 2015 8:04 AM - Mike Glass: my friend just bought 2 honda gens for $1200
Jun 1, 2015 8:04 AM - Mike Kelly: hondas are serious gens though
Jun 1, 2015 8:05 AM - Mike Kelly: that was just the first hit for generator on amazon
Jun 1, 2015 8:06 AM - JeffTheMess: That is a good gen
Jun 1, 2015 8:16 AM - jbigler1986: yep small generators are cheap
Jun 1, 2015 8:16 AM - jbigler1986: well you can get them cheap is what i mean
Jun 1, 2015 8:20 AM - Mike Kelly: or both
Jun 1, 2015 8:21 AM - jbigler1986: ha. true
Jun 1, 2015 8:21 AM - Mike Kelly: i run a ups because my garage only has one circuit and it's shared to the microwave
Jun 1, 2015 8:22 AM - jbigler1986: ups is good if you just want to keep up a few things. if you need a lot, generator is the way to go
Jun 1, 2015 8:23 AM - Mike Kelly: yup
Jun 1, 2015 8:23 AM - Mike Kelly: ups is good for me having enough time to switch the breaker back on
Jun 1, 2015 8:23 AM - Mike Kelly: i don't even remember the last time the power was out
Jun 1, 2015 8:24 AM - jbigler1986: same
Jun 1, 2015 8:24 AM - jbigler1986: maybe like a year and a half ago for a brief 2 minutes or so
Jun 1, 2015 8:25 AM - Mike Kelly: i seem to have vague memories of one for a bit
Jun 1, 2015 8:26 AM - jbigler1986: i think when we find our new house i'm going to look into some solar panels
Jun 1, 2015 8:26 AM - daniel871: So what I'm reading is that getting nearly an hour off of the UPS I've got was actually a pretty good run.
Jun 1, 2015 8:26 AM - daniel871: Or a little over an hour.
Jun 1, 2015 8:26 AM - Mike Kelly: we looked into solar panels when we bought our house
Jun 1, 2015 8:26 AM - Mike Kelly: but we didn't want to rent them and the payback just wasn't good enough
Jun 1, 2015 8:26 AM - Mike Kelly: maybe they've dropped in price since then
Jun 1, 2015 8:27 AM - jbigler1986: pricey at first but in the long run they pay for themselves. add value too
Jun 1, 2015 8:28 AM - jbigler1986: just go with a windmill. lol. just imaging the looks i would get from neighbors
Jun 1, 2015 8:28 AM - JeffTheMess: depends on "the position of the house"
Jun 1, 2015 8:28 AM - JeffTheMess: lol
Jun 1, 2015 8:29 AM - jbigler1986: all hell would break loose if i did something like that around here
Jun 1, 2015 8:30 AM - jbigler1986: MK you could go either way. It's always windy and always sunny there

 

Jun 1, 2015 8:36 AM - JeffTheMess: random question: any one know where I can get dimensions of a windshield?
Jun 1, 2015 8:39 AM - Stephen Capistron: a year or two ago colorado went up over 50% renewable power for a few hours, which is pretty impressive when you think about it
Jun 1, 2015 8:40 AM - Stephen Capistron: then everyone woke up and the lights came on, still an achievement
Jun 1, 2015 8:40 AM - Mike Kelly: i think the Z upgrade is happening....
Jun 1, 2015 8:41 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah there's quite a lot of turbines around here
Jun 1, 2015 8:41 AM - Mike Kelly: i think when we looked at the ROI for solar panels it was like 10 years
Jun 1, 2015 8:41 AM - Stephen Capistron: I know burlington vermont is supposed to be 100% renewable by the end of the year. Though given their location they are achieving this by actually offsetting their NG plants by purchasing / funding hydro, wind, and solar in other locations that are more efficient
Jun 1, 2015 8:41 AM - Mike Kelly: which was longer than we intended to live here
Jun 1, 2015 8:42 AM - Stephen Capistron: it was just on this old house. Conservative estimate for payback was 10-12. Best case was 5-6.
Jun 1, 2015 8:46 AM - Mike Kelly: speaking of energy, i really need to fix the seal on my kegorator
Jun 1, 2015 8:46 AM - Stephen Capistron: though tesla's power wall is going to change the math on all of that
Jun 1, 2015 8:46 AM - Mike Kelly: i guess the best way is to find the part number and see if there's a kit
Jun 1, 2015 8:47 AM - Stephen Capistron: yeah, i just had to empty my kegerator to let it defrost. be interesting what the electric bill looks like.
Jun 1, 2015 8:47 AM - Stephen Capistron: generic fridge gasket won't do?
Jun 1, 2015 8:51 AM - Mike Kelly: they would probably. what are you thinking
Jun 1, 2015 8:54 AM - Stephen Capistron: http://www.amazon.com/Continental-R...433174099&sr=8-1&keywords=refrigerator+gasket
Jun 1, 2015 8:54 AM - jbigler1986: MK what about the Z upgrade? Get that info from Robo? Also Braydon still hasn't responded
Jun 1, 2015 8:55 AM - Stephen Capistron: or go full bootleg and just walk down the weather seal aisle at the hardware store
Jun 1, 2015 9:00 AM - Mike Kelly: hah
Jun 1, 2015 9:00 AM - Mike Kelly: i wanna try and increase the efficiency of it
Jun 1, 2015 9:01 AM - Mike Glass: put a water heater blanket on it..lol
Jun 1, 2015 9:01 AM - Mike Kelly: lol
Jun 1, 2015 9:01 AM - Mike Kelly: at some point i want to tear out all the insulation and replace it with something more efficient
Jun 1, 2015 9:02 AM - Mike Glass: or get enough of the pizza carriers and make a blanket with those
Jun 1, 2015 9:05 AM - Stephen Capistron: use this stuff > http://www.aerogel.com/products-and-solutions/cryogel-z/
Jun 1, 2015 9:06 AM - Stephen Capistron: is yours an actual kegerator or a converted fridge?
Jun 1, 2015 9:08 AM - Stephen Capistron: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008KVCPH2?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage
Jun 1, 2015 9:08 AM - Stephen Capistron: Something like that might help with the frequency with which it runs
Jun 1, 2015 9:09 AM - Mike Kelly: it's a fridge
Jun 1, 2015 9:10 AM - Mike Kelly: i bought it used
Jun 1, 2015 9:11 AM - jbigler1986: you didn't build it? i'm telling
Jun 1, 2015 9:12 AM - Mike Glass: how do your 3d print a fridge?
Jun 1, 2015 9:12 AM - jbigler1986: buy a BAP
Jun 1, 2015 9:13 AM - Stephen Capistron: The problem i run into with my conversion is that it is near impossible to use the freazer as a freezer because the door is opened so infrequently
Jun 1, 2015 9:13 AM - Mike Glass: so it just gets filled with ice?
Jun 1, 2015 9:14 AM - Stephen Capistron: cool, not frozen, mugs
Jun 1, 2015 9:14 AM - jbigler1986: http://www.re3d.org/
Jun 1, 2015 9:16 AM - Mike Kelly: i upgraded it from 1 tap to 3
Jun 1, 2015 9:16 AM - jbigler1986: wow the quality sucks on that
Jun 1, 2015 9:17 AM - Stephen Capistron: i'm inclined to think that you might be able to extract more efficieny out of the refrigeration system as opposed to insulating the fridge more.
Jun 1, 2015 9:17 AM - Mike Kelly: how do you figure
Jun 1, 2015 9:18 AM - Stephen Capistron: Stand the coils off the back a little more. Pull it off the wall a little more
Jun 1, 2015 9:18 AM - Stephen Capistron: maybe wire a fan behind it to help push the heat away
Jun 1, 2015 9:18 AM - Mike Kelly: well it's an old fridge so it's got crap for insulation
Jun 1, 2015 9:19 AM - Stephen Capistron: Well your only real area for heat loss is the gasket
Jun 1, 2015 9:19 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah and that's missing part right now, so that's priority number 1
Jun 1, 2015 9:19 AM - Stephen Capistron: you could buy a bunch of cans of spray foam and make the walls thicker, but the gasket is still the weak point
Jun 1, 2015 9:19 AM - Mike Kelly: i'm gonna put a monitor back on it to see how much it drops with that
Jun 1, 2015 9:20 AM - daniel871: http://shop.re3d.org/products/gigabot-bigger-volume
Jun 1, 2015 9:21 AM - Stephen Capistron: you could replace the factory gasket and then add additional weather stripping on either side of that one.
Jun 1, 2015 9:21 AM - Stephen Capistron: know anyone with one of these? http://www.amazon.com/FLIR-ONE-Ther...TF8&qid=1433175763&sr=8-15&keywords=ir+iphone
Jun 1, 2015 9:22 AM - Mike Glass: iphone, eww
Jun 1, 2015 9:22 AM - Mike Kelly: i wish
Jun 1, 2015 9:22 AM - Mike Kelly: i have one on my wishlist
Jun 1, 2015 9:23 AM - Mike Kelly: we used to have a thermal camera around the office
Jun 1, 2015 9:23 AM - Mike Kelly: no idea where it wondered off to
Jun 1, 2015 9:24 AM - Stephen Capistron: they make one for android too i'm sure
Jun 1, 2015 9:25 AM - daniel871: http://therm-app.com/
Jun 1, 2015 9:25 AM - daniel871: Fuck $1000 though.
Jun 1, 2015 9:25 AM - Mike Kelly: http://www.amazon.com/Seek-Thermal-...8&qid=1433175930&sr=1-4&keywords=seek+thermal
Jun 1, 2015 9:25 AM - Stephen Capistron: shame harbor freight doesn't sell one
Jun 1, 2015 9:25 AM - Mike Kelly: i know right? maybe someday soon
Jun 1, 2015 9:26 AM - Mike Kelly: or short range: http://www.amazon.com/Seek-UW-AAA-T...8&qid=1433175930&sr=1-1&keywords=seek+thermal
Jun 1, 2015 9:27 AM - Stephen Capistron: back to the efficiency for one last thought. You have to remember that when it was designed they wanted it to be reasonably quiet. Out in your garage you don't care about noise so add a fan to get the heat away from it.
Jun 1, 2015 9:27 AM - Stephen Capistron: Oooh, a lightning deal
Jun 1, 2015 9:28 AM - Mike Kelly: it's in the basement actually
Jun 1, 2015 9:28 AM - Stephen Capistron: wasn't sure if you had one, so i guessed garage
Jun 1, 2015 9:28 AM - Mike Kelly: http://www.amazon.com/Seek-Thermal-...8&qid=1433175930&sr=1-3&keywords=seek+thermal this is the one i want
Jun 1, 2015 9:28 AM - Mike Kelly: our basement is the beer room
Jun 1, 2015 9:28 AM - Mike Kelly: then the garage is my shop
Jun 1, 2015 9:28 AM - Stephen Capistron: my basement is both
Jun 1, 2015 9:29 AM - Stephen Capistron: scotch stays upstairs
Jun 1, 2015 9:29 AM - Mike Kelly: it's kinda our party room
Jun 1, 2015 9:29 AM - Mike Kelly: got the bar down there, dart board, etc
Jun 1, 2015 9:32 AM - Mike Kelly: you'd think a .5 micron carbonation stone would be more expensive than a 2 micron
Jun 1, 2015 9:32 AM - Mike Kelly: ah 2 micron is for soda
Jun 1, 2015 9:39 AM - Mike Kelly: man i hate davinci printers
Jun 1, 2015 9:39 AM - Mike Kelly: such scumbags
Jun 1, 2015 9:42 AM - JeffTheMess: why?
Jun 1, 2015 9:43 AM - Stephen Capistron: chipped filament
Jun 1, 2015 9:44 AM - JeffTheMess: that guy is like 500 right
Jun 1, 2015 9:46 AM - Mike Kelly: i don't like people with proprietary filaments
Jun 1, 2015 9:46 AM - Mike Kelly: i hope enough people are bypassing their system so that selling a printer for a loss causes them to go bankrupt
Jun 1, 2015 9:46 AM - Mike Kelly: but they're backed by a multi billion dollar conglomerate so i don't see that happening
Jun 1, 2015 9:46 AM - Mike Glass: yeah only apple is allowed proprietary
Jun 1, 2015 9:50 AM - JeffTheMess: The Cube does that too
Jun 1, 2015 9:52 AM - Mike Kelly: you mean like how i can run windows on my mac?
Jun 1, 2015 9:52 AM - Mike Kelly: or linux
Jun 1, 2015 9:54 AM - JeffTheMess: http://hackaday.com/2013/04/26/cube-3d-printer-hack-lets-you-use-bulk-filament/
Jun 1, 2015 9:54 AM - donhuevo: 'sup
Jun 1, 2015 9:54 AM - Mike Kelly: yo don
Jun 1, 2015 10:03 AM - Mike Kelly: print warped on 3 corners, think i need to stick with an enclosure
Jun 1, 2015 10:05 AM - donhuevo: crap
Jun 1, 2015 10:05 AM - Mike Kelly: it'll still work for what i want but kinda disappointing
Jun 1, 2015 10:05 AM - donhuevo: still, the printinz limitations need to be known
Jun 1, 2015 10:06 AM - Mike Kelly: yup
Jun 1, 2015 10:06 AM - Stephen Capistron: i'm liking my project foam one i've got going. Now i just need to make it a bit more finished. Hinges, latch(es), etc.
Jun 1, 2015 10:06 AM - Mike Kelly: let's see a picture
Jun 1, 2015 10:06 AM - JeffTheMess: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:768305
Jun 1, 2015 10:07 AM - JeffTheMess: Has anyone seen TSG guitar?

 

Jun 1, 2015 10:07 AM - Mike Kelly: just the last pic he posted on fb
Jun 1, 2015 10:09 AM - Stephen Capistron: i think i might put a candle or two inside the enclosure to help with the smell
Jun 1, 2015 10:09 AM - Stephen Capistron: an extra heat source too
Jun 1, 2015 10:10 AM - Stephen Capistron:
Jun 1, 2015 10:11 AM - Stephen Capistron: thats what i get for trying to do that from my phone
Jun 1, 2015 10:11 AM - JeffTheMess: I dont have fb
Jun 1, 2015 10:16 AM - daniel871: I'm going to put piano hinges on both sides of the enclosure when I put it together, since my printer sits "sideways" on the dresser I'm using for a table anyway.
Jun 1, 2015 10:17 AM - splitwindow63: can someone help me trouble shoot
Jun 1, 2015 10:17 AM - daniel871: Going to need to come up with a way to hold it open when I'm applying tape/hair spray to the bed though.
Jun 1, 2015 10:17 AM - splitwindow63: locking hindge?
Jun 1, 2015 10:19 AM - daniel871: Probably going to print a simple clip to put over the hinge and printer body to put on it when I open it and want it to stay open while I do whatever.
Jun 1, 2015 10:19 AM - daniel871: And store the clip in the tool holder when not in use.
Jun 1, 2015 10:20 AM - splitwindow63: not a bad idea
Jun 1, 2015 10:22 AM - splitwindow63: how do i fix my printer so that it doesnt make circular objects oval like?
Jun 1, 2015 10:25 AM - Mike Glass: tip it to one side?
Jun 1, 2015 10:26 AM - daniel871: What is up with all the profiles posting spam for testosterone products?
Jun 1, 2015 10:26 AM - jbigler1986: um what http://www.frys.com/product/8377867?site=sa:adpages page:P145_SUN date:053115
Jun 1, 2015 10:26 AM - daniel871: Or having profile posts with them anyway, if not posting actual threads?
Jun 1, 2015 10:26 AM - splitwindow63: im trying to print a ball
Jun 1, 2015 10:27 AM - daniel871: Wait, what is that, JB?
Jun 1, 2015 10:27 AM - Mike Glass: you have to purchase aphone with a 2 year contract jb
Jun 1, 2015 10:28 AM - Mike Glass: got to read the fine print
Jun 1, 2015 10:28 AM - daniel871: Also it's unavailable.
Jun 1, 2015 10:28 AM - jbigler1986: free with that
Jun 1, 2015 10:28 AM - jbigler1986: otherwise it's $89
Jun 1, 2015 10:28 AM - JeffTheMess: take that mattercontrol touch!
Jun 1, 2015 10:28 AM - jbigler1986: unavailable for shipping. my store has it in stock
Jun 1, 2015 10:29 AM - donhuevo: is it ovular in the x or y axis?
Jun 1, 2015 10:30 AM - jbigler1986: my phone is a LG G3. My kids each have one of those tablets. they are awesome
Jun 1, 2015 10:31 AM - jbigler1986: @split if you are having problems printing a ball you are probably having issues printing other things as well. do you have any pics?
Jun 1, 2015 10:32 AM - donhuevo: split, the geared pulleys on the x&y motors each have a set screw to lock them onto motor shafts. one of those is loose
Jun 1, 2015 10:33 AM - Mike Kelly: lol stephen
Jun 1, 2015 10:33 AM - jbigler1986: or loose belt
Jun 1, 2015 10:33 AM - Mike Kelly: that's certainly one way to make an enclosure
Jun 1, 2015 10:33 AM - jbigler1986: just get a grill cover and throw it over it
Jun 1, 2015 10:34 AM - Mike Kelly: as for the spam... i have no idea
Jun 1, 2015 10:35 AM - Stephen Capistron: not enough insulation with a grill cover
Jun 1, 2015 10:35 AM - donhuevo: Harry is making money on the side
Jun 1, 2015 10:35 AM - Stephen Capistron: my basement got as cold as 6C this winter
Jun 1, 2015 10:35 AM - jbigler1986: holy hell
Jun 1, 2015 10:37 AM - Stephen Capistron: yeah i don't think just stopping the drafts would work for me through the winter. I need to actually keep the heat in.
Jun 1, 2015 10:37 AM - daniel871: I'd be more impressed if it was 6K, because then you'd be dead.
Jun 1, 2015 10:37 AM - Mike Kelly: raining helium
Jun 1, 2015 10:38 AM - daniel871:
Jun 1, 2015 10:38 AM - Stephen Capistron: I have an aftermarket backup camera kicking around somewhere here I should put on there so i can see what is going on in there
Jun 1, 2015 10:38 AM - Mike Kelly: lol
Jun 1, 2015 10:38 AM - Mike Kelly: you shoulda just worked on your design for holding the enclosure more and i woulda sent you one
Jun 1, 2015 10:38 AM - daniel871: I need to get a camera on mine period so I can join the streaming/youtube video upload party.
Jun 1, 2015 10:38 AM - Mike Kelly: then you could actually see what's happening
Jun 1, 2015 10:38 AM - donhuevo: tape an ipad onto the outside and just poke a small hole for the camera to spy through
Jun 1, 2015 10:38 AM - Stephen Capistron: mind you i print topless like don
Jun 1, 2015 10:38 AM - Mike Kelly: and i can print abs in my 5C garage
Jun 1, 2015 10:38 AM - Mike Kelly: oh
Jun 1, 2015 10:39 AM - Mike Kelly: you and your shakey printers
Jun 1, 2015 10:39 AM - daniel871: What does whether you wear a shirt or not have to do with the printer?
Jun 1, 2015 10:39 AM - jbigler1986: just heat up a room to 90 degrees celcius. there is your enclosure.
Jun 1, 2015 10:39 AM - jbigler1986: don't try that at home though
Jun 1, 2015 10:40 AM - jbigler1986: i am not responsible if you burn down ur house
Jun 1, 2015 10:40 AM - donhuevo: sometimes I forego the pants too
Jun 1, 2015 10:42 AM - Mike Kelly: my garage does that for me in the summer
Jun 1, 2015 10:42 AM - daniel871:
Jun 1, 2015 10:42 AM - Mike Kelly: freaking miserable to be in there
Jun 1, 2015 10:42 AM - Mike Kelly: but i'm getting a couple more circuits put in the garage so i can have my 10k btu AC running
Jun 1, 2015 10:42 AM - Mike Kelly: i hope that's enough
Jun 1, 2015 10:43 AM - Mike Kelly: hot cars kinda ruin it thogh
Jun 1, 2015 10:43 AM - Stephen Capistron: and you're worried about your kegerator being an electricity hog
Jun 1, 2015 10:43 AM - Mike Kelly:
Jun 1, 2015 10:43 AM - Mike Kelly: i'm weird
Jun 1, 2015 10:44 AM - jbigler1986: we all knew this
Jun 1, 2015 10:44 AM - Mike Kelly: though i doubt i'll ever actually do anything to the kegorator
Jun 1, 2015 10:44 AM - Mike Kelly: just want to fix the lining at least
Jun 1, 2015 10:44 AM - Mike Kelly: i also want to run a NG line to the garage so i can put in a heater for the winter
Jun 1, 2015 10:44 AM - jbigler1986: u have a rep2x so that kind of gave it away
Jun 1, 2015 10:44 AM - Mike Kelly: haha
Jun 1, 2015 10:45 AM - Mike Kelly: hey there wasn't another dual extruder option at the time ok
Jun 1, 2015 10:45 AM - Mike Kelly: and this was also Pre being bought by stratasys
Jun 1, 2015 10:47 AM - jbigler1986: how did that stensil turn out?
Jun 1, 2015 10:48 AM - jbigler1986: 3d print a gun! 3d print a gun!
Jun 1, 2015 10:48 AM - Mike Kelly: the stencil part came out great and will work very well
Jun 1, 2015 10:49 AM - Mike Kelly: but 3 out of 4 corners lifted proving the need for the enclosure
Jun 1, 2015 10:49 AM - Mike Kelly: granted i was kinda torture testing it by running my AC right next to it
Jun 1, 2015 10:49 AM - Mike Kelly: but pretty minimal warp all things considered
Jun 1, 2015 10:49 AM - jbigler1986: but does it smell like your cooking pancakes?
Jun 1, 2015 10:49 AM - Mike Kelly: i personally hate how PLA smells
Jun 1, 2015 10:49 AM - jbigler1986:
Jun 1, 2015 10:50 AM - daniel871: I honestly don't smell anything when extruding PLA except hot plastic.
Jun 1, 2015 10:51 AM - jbigler1986:
Jun 1, 2015 10:51 AM - donhuevo: I have an excellent oatmeal pancake recipe if anyone is interested
Jun 1, 2015 10:52 AM - Mike Kelly: lol
Jun 1, 2015 10:53 AM - JeffTheMess: cute... http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:752582
Jun 1, 2015 10:53 AM - Mike Kelly: what is this? a swing for ants?
Jun 1, 2015 10:54 AM - JeffTheMess:
Jun 1, 2015 10:55 AM - JeffTheMess:
Jun 1, 2015 10:58 AM - Mike Kelly: i seem to be struggling to find a setting for the 1.6 that doesn't ooze
Jun 1, 2015 10:58 AM - jbigler1986: ooze = false
Jun 1, 2015 10:58 AM - jbigler1986: duh
Jun 1, 2015 10:58 AM - jbigler1986: in the configuration.h
Jun 1, 2015 11:00 AM - Stephen Capistron: Just keep upping that retraction
Jun 1, 2015 11:01 AM - Stephen Capistron: Set it for 6
Jun 1, 2015 11:01 AM - Mike Kelly: lol i missed that setting jb

 

Jun 1, 2015 11:01 AM - Mike Kelly: ok, i'll try another deprime at 6
Jun 1, 2015 11:01 AM - jbigler1986: mine is at 4.5mm i think
Jun 1, 2015 11:02 AM - Mike Kelly: 4 was an improvement over 3 but it still oozes a bit
Jun 1, 2015 11:02 AM - Mike Kelly: i also went from 210 to 200
Jun 1, 2015 11:02 AM - Stephen Capistron: I printed about a dozen of these things, 2 at a time to tune out stringing, hem lines, and support
Jun 1, 2015 11:02 AM - Stephen Capistron: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4360
Jun 1, 2015 11:03 AM - jbigler1986: I never have to go above 200
Jun 1, 2015 11:03 AM - jbigler1986: i always print at 195 or 198
Jun 1, 2015 11:03 AM - Mike Kelly: higher temps help first layer adhesion
Jun 1, 2015 11:03 AM - Mike Kelly: i always used to print at 195
Jun 1, 2015 11:03 AM - jbigler1986: yeah. i never have any problems with that
Jun 1, 2015 11:04 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah the autolevel isn't consistent enough for my liking
Jun 1, 2015 11:04 AM - Mike Kelly: especially trying to use MfnC
Jun 1, 2015 11:04 AM - jbigler1986: my 2 inch thick coating of hairspray probably helps
Jun 1, 2015 11:04 AM - Mike Kelly: haha
Jun 1, 2015 11:04 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah mine's developed a decent coating
Jun 1, 2015 11:05 AM - Stephen Capistron: Yeah, the carriage is heavy and causes the glass to bend. and the idler side is wicked light
Jun 1, 2015 11:05 AM - Stephen Capistron: need to print Bill's bullet box
Jun 1, 2015 11:05 AM - jbigler1986: shhhhhhhh
Jun 1, 2015 11:06 AM - jbigler1986: he doesn't want credit for it
Jun 1, 2015 11:06 AM - jbigler1986: he tried telling me to take credit for it. no way jose
Jun 1, 2015 11:07 AM - jbigler1986: it helped mine out. no issues since i added it
Jun 1, 2015 11:07 AM - Stephen Capistron: it is better than the 3/8" hex key i had zip tied to mine
Jun 1, 2015 11:09 AM - jbigler1986: i need to take some coins out. it may be a touch to heavy
Jun 1, 2015 11:11 AM - Stephen Capistron: without that counter weight the motor side switch did nothing
Jun 1, 2015 11:13 AM - jbigler1986: $6 million in sales last month. not to bad
Jun 1, 2015 11:19 AM - jbigler1986: saw a video yesterday of the top 5 3d printing must haves. Tiko was number 2 or 3 on the list. lmao
Jun 1, 2015 11:20 AM - JeffTheMess: anybody knows whats the use of this http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:853020
Jun 1, 2015 11:22 AM - Stephen Capistron: think of it as a 180 degree fan shroud
Jun 1, 2015 11:22 AM - Mike Glass: sucks up wind?
Jun 1, 2015 11:23 AM - Stephen Capistron: i'm going to guess that based on the description it is a bad translation. Google needs to get their act together
Jun 1, 2015 11:24 AM - daniel871: How many coins do you have in yours, JB?
Jun 1, 2015 11:24 AM - daniel871: I filled mine up with nickels and dimes and it got the majority of the vibration down to just a dull hum.
Jun 1, 2015 11:25 AM - jbigler1986: idk. i jst threw a bunch in there
Jun 1, 2015 11:25 AM - jbigler1986: it's like half full or so
Jun 1, 2015 11:26 AM - daniel871: Also have a few quarters in it, forgot about those.
Jun 1, 2015 11:26 AM - Stephen Capistron: nickels and dimes. high roller. Why not pennies?
Jun 1, 2015 11:26 AM - jbigler1986: i just broke open my sons piggy bank and grabbed a handful
Jun 1, 2015 11:26 AM - jbigler1986: jk
Jun 1, 2015 11:26 AM - daniel871: Because I didn't have that many pennies in my change jar.
Jun 1, 2015 11:27 AM - daniel871: Had a bunch of dimes and nickels though.
Jun 1, 2015 11:27 AM - Stephen Capistron: this is fun
Jun 1, 2015 11:27 AM - Stephen Capistron: http://www.csmonitor.com/Business/T...d-chickens-and-other-false-food-safety-rumors
Jun 1, 2015 11:28 AM - daniel871: I wonder if Neil Gaiman is going to be targeted because of the KFC myth he put in American Gods.
Jun 1, 2015 11:29 AM - daniel871: That it was a gigantic centipede-like creature that was fed sludge and harvested of it's multiple breast, leg, wing and thigh portions of each segment.
Jun 1, 2015 11:29 AM - Stephen Capistron: I hope Bill is okay
Jun 1, 2015 11:30 AM - jbigler1986: idc what they use. as long as i don't get sick eating it. KFC is delicious
Jun 1, 2015 11:30 AM - JeffTheMess:
Jun 1, 2015 11:30 AM - daniel871: Thought that was a swastika on the tail before clicking the thumbnail.
Jun 1, 2015 11:31 AM - JeffTheMess: lol
Jun 1, 2015 11:31 AM - daniel871: Instead of the number 19.
Jun 1, 2015 11:32 AM - Stephen Capistron: And solar impulse had to divert to Nagoya on their way to hawaii
Jun 1, 2015 11:33 AM - Stephen Capistron: http://www.solarimpulse.com/leg-7-from-Nanjing-to-Hawaii
Jun 1, 2015 11:37 AM - toy: ok, i need some pins.h help... i need to make the cyclops firmware changes http://wiki.e3d-online.com/wiki/Cyclops/Chimera_on_RoBo3D
Jun 1, 2015 11:38 AM - Bill Monroe: ya, this was somewhere in Europe
Jun 1, 2015 11:38 AM - JeffTheMess: that is awesome, but no real use yet unless google use it for there delivery
Jun 1, 2015 11:38 AM - toy: the only line i can find close to that is line 545, can someone confirm this the right line
Jun 1, 2015 11:38 AM - Bill Monroe: it's an RV-6.. kit plane.. had a mid-air with another one during an airchow
Jun 1, 2015 11:39 AM - Bill Monroe: err airshow
Jun 1, 2015 11:40 AM - toy: but my question is line 545 refers to board type 68 and not 34 ( assuming i'm reading the code correctly =\ )
Jun 1, 2015 11:41 AM - Mike Kelly: jb what do you mean by 6 million in sales?
Jun 1, 2015 11:41 AM - Mike Kelly: toy just use diff merge
Jun 1, 2015 11:42 AM - donhuevo: the new Colonel Sanders looks like a pedophile
Jun 1, 2015 11:42 AM - daniel871: Colonel Sanders always looked like that.
Jun 1, 2015 11:43 AM - donhuevo: the new one even more so
Jun 1, 2015 11:44 AM - toy: ahh diff merge... great is that in notepadd ++
Jun 1, 2015 11:44 AM - Mike Kelly: no it's software
Jun 1, 2015 11:44 AM - toy: ide?
Jun 1, 2015 11:46 AM - Mike Kelly: DiffMerge
Jun 1, 2015 11:47 AM - jbigler1986: that was how much we sold to our vendors like walmart, target, dicks sporting goods.
Jun 1, 2015 11:48 AM - jbigler1986: not me personally selling all of that. i wish.
Jun 1, 2015 11:49 AM - jbigler1986: although i hate sales
Jun 1, 2015 11:49 AM - Mike Kelly: haha
Jun 1, 2015 11:49 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah sales is something i could never do
Jun 1, 2015 11:50 AM - jbigler1986: me either. screw that
Jun 1, 2015 11:50 AM - donhuevo: unless the product sells itself then all you have to do is stand next to it and make modelly hand gestures
Jun 1, 2015 11:50 AM - jbigler1986: like strippers?
Jun 1, 2015 11:51 AM - donhuevo: maybe?
Jun 1, 2015 11:51 AM - jbigler1986: i mean dancers (that's what they like to be called right?)
Jun 1, 2015 11:51 AM - donhuevo: do you have some for sale?
Jun 1, 2015 11:51 AM - jbigler1986: i guess that's more of a service
Jun 1, 2015 11:53 AM - jbigler1986: they are good for doing a strawberry shortcake too
Jun 1, 2015 11:54 AM - donhuevo: not all strippers are created equal though...
Jun 1, 2015 11:54 AM - donhuevo:
Jun 1, 2015 11:54 AM - Mike Kelly: man i don't know why i punish myself with mattercontrol
Jun 1, 2015 11:54 AM - Mike Kelly: WHY DON'T YOU RUN AUTOLEVEL EVERY TIME
Jun 1, 2015 11:54 AM - Mike Kelly: wtf don
Jun 1, 2015 11:54 AM - toy: im not sure how diffmerge will help me , if i dont know which line to change
Jun 1, 2015 11:55 AM - Mike Kelly: because it will show you what's different
Jun 1, 2015 11:55 AM - Mike Kelly: this really isn't complicated
Jun 1, 2015 11:55 AM - toy: different to what... i dont have a correct firmware to compare against
Jun 1, 2015 11:55 AM - donhuevo: if he's changing up his config.h for the first time, how does he have something to compare
Jun 1, 2015 11:55 AM - Mike Kelly: download the firmware from the page
Jun 1, 2015 11:55 AM - donhuevo: or ^
Jun 1, 2015 11:56 AM - toy: the correct line in pins.h would be useful =)
Jun 1, 2015 11:56 AM - jbigler1986: someone do a google image search on that picture. I need her information
Jun 1, 2015 11:56 AM - donhuevo: or that
Jun 1, 2015 11:56 AM - Mike Kelly: i have no idea
Jun 1, 2015 11:56 AM - Mike Kelly: just use diffmerge
Jun 1, 2015 11:56 AM - Mike Kelly: open both firmwares

 

Jun 1, 2015 11:56 AM - Mike Kelly: see changes
Jun 1, 2015 11:56 AM - Mike Kelly: be done
Jun 1, 2015 11:57 AM - Mike Kelly: or just use the firmware i already made
Jun 1, 2015 11:57 AM - donhuevo: for the chimera and cyclops?
Jun 1, 2015 11:57 AM - toy: i think your firmwareuses autolevel
Jun 1, 2015 11:57 AM - toy: yes
Jun 1, 2015 11:58 AM - jbigler1986: @don are those the kind of strippers you find?
Jun 1, 2015 11:58 AM - toy: can someone just check line 544/545 in the pins.h
Jun 1, 2015 11:59 AM - Mike Kelly: omg
Jun 1, 2015 12:00 PM - Mike Kelly: you're thinking about this way too much
Jun 1, 2015 12:00 PM - toy: probably....
Jun 1, 2015 12:00 PM - Mike Kelly: you can enable autolevel and pretend like it doesn't even exist
Jun 1, 2015 12:00 PM - Mike Kelly: the printer won't care unless you use G29
Jun 1, 2015 12:00 PM - Mike Kelly: Download diff merg
Jun 1, 2015 12:00 PM - Mike Kelly: compare your firmwares
Jun 1, 2015 12:00 PM - Mike Kelly: be done
Jun 1, 2015 12:00 PM - Mike Kelly: seriously
Jun 1, 2015 12:00 PM - toy: wheres the link to your firmware
Jun 1, 2015 12:01 PM - Mike Kelly: ...
Jun 1, 2015 12:01 PM - toy: lol
Jun 1, 2015 12:01 PM - Mike Kelly: dude what's wrong with you
Jun 1, 2015 12:01 PM - toy: i just woke up
Jun 1, 2015 12:01 PM - Mike Kelly: it's on the wiki page
Jun 1, 2015 12:01 PM - Mike Kelly: R>C>P
Jun 1, 2015 12:01 PM - jbigler1986: mike is pulling the rest of his hair out
Jun 1, 2015 12:01 PM - Mike Kelly: this is why people shouldn't do dual extrusion
Jun 1, 2015 12:02 PM - jbigler1986: i just ordered the parts for it
Jun 1, 2015 12:03 PM - Mike Kelly: seriously?
Jun 1, 2015 12:03 PM - toy: easy
Jun 1, 2015 12:03 PM - toy: its 1 line on pins.h that im stuck on =\
Jun 1, 2015 12:03 PM - toy: but yet i shouldnt be using dual extrusions?
Jun 1, 2015 12:04 PM - Mike Kelly: this is the easy part of dual extrusion
Jun 1, 2015 12:04 PM - jbigler1986: no. i was just kidding mike
Jun 1, 2015 12:04 PM - JeffTheMess: (Mike is at level 9000!)
Jun 1, 2015 12:04 PM - Mike Kelly: i was gonna say jb, that does not sound like you
Jun 1, 2015 12:05 PM - toy: can u just look up line 545 in th epins.h and tell me if that was the one u changed?
Jun 1, 2015 12:05 PM - daniel871: Huh. Turns out they make battery pack additions for UPS systems if you have the right UPS.
Jun 1, 2015 12:05 PM - donhuevo: Snickers STAT
Jun 1, 2015 12:05 PM - Mike Kelly: no toy, use diffmerge
Jun 1, 2015 12:05 PM - Mike Kelly: learn by seeing
Jun 1, 2015 12:05 PM - daniel871: Naturally, I don't have the right kind of UPS.
Jun 1, 2015 12:05 PM - jbigler1986: ups as in like basketball ups?
Jun 1, 2015 12:05 PM - Mike Kelly: i didn't go through all that effort of making the various firmwares to feed people answers
Jun 1, 2015 12:06 PM - jbigler1986: but you have the answer to 90% of the questions
Jun 1, 2015 12:06 PM - toy: ugh..., so why does the pins.h make no reference to the correct board type
Jun 1, 2015 12:06 PM - daniel871: UPS as in Uninterruptible Power Supply.
Jun 1, 2015 12:07 PM - JeffTheMess: are you going to switch ups?
Jun 1, 2015 12:07 PM - Mike Kelly: https://sourcegear.com/diffmerge/
Jun 1, 2015 12:07 PM - daniel871: Not likely.
Jun 1, 2015 12:07 PM - toy: it mentions everyboard type but 34
Jun 1, 2015 12:07 PM - jbigler1986: i was kidding daniel. I knew what you meant. I'm in a good mood if you haven't noticed
Jun 1, 2015 12:07 PM - Mike Kelly: you're looking in the wrong area then
Jun 1, 2015 12:07 PM - Mike Kelly: Motherboard == 34
Jun 1, 2015 12:07 PM - toy: im tryin to understand how the pins.h work
Jun 1, 2015 12:08 PM - daniel871: Here is one of the UPS systems that is expandable. http://www.amazon.com/CyberPower-OL...8&qid=1433185642&sr=1-1&keywords=OL1500RTXL2U
Jun 1, 2015 12:08 PM - toy: i scrolled down to the section referencing the aurduino mega
Jun 1, 2015 12:08 PM - Mike Kelly: holy jesus daniel
Jun 1, 2015 12:09 PM - daniel871: Yeah.
Jun 1, 2015 12:09 PM - JeffTheMess: for that find the cheaper expandable unit and go from there
Jun 1, 2015 12:09 PM - Mike Kelly: just hack yours to use more batteries
Jun 1, 2015 12:09 PM - daniel871: Amazon's search terms aren't very helpful.
Jun 1, 2015 12:09 PM - daniel871: I plan to do that, Mike.
Jun 1, 2015 12:09 PM - Mike Kelly: amazon can be very frustrating at times
Jun 1, 2015 12:09 PM - jbigler1986: just use 800 double a batteries
Jun 1, 2015 12:09 PM - JeffTheMess: what Mike said
Jun 1, 2015 12:09 PM - Mike Kelly: it's search is alright but man can it be hard to find things
Jun 1, 2015 12:10 PM - daniel871: Was just looking to see if there was a "You can't sue me if you do this and it burns your house down" when I post about my expanded "this will run for 30 hours" unit.
Jun 1, 2015 12:10 PM - Mike Kelly: i usually have better luck finding something close then using related items
Jun 1, 2015 12:11 PM - toy: but diffmerge isnt gonna teach me anything about how the pins.h works.. =\
Jun 1, 2015 12:11 PM - daniel871: Do any of you guys know if a UPS that can 1) Run the Robo, and 2) Be expanded with additional battery packs from the manufacturer?
Jun 1, 2015 12:11 PM - Mike Kelly: i think don is our resident UPS expert
Jun 1, 2015 12:12 PM - jbigler1986: are you trying to run the ups for like a week on its own or something
Jun 1, 2015 12:12 PM - Mike Kelly: i think he's just looking for something that can run for 8 hours
Jun 1, 2015 12:12 PM - jbigler1986: that's gonna be pricey
Jun 1, 2015 12:12 PM - Mike Kelly: agreed
Jun 1, 2015 12:12 PM - Mike Kelly: better to just buy a generator
Jun 1, 2015 12:13 PM - toy: MK, was it under the arduino mega pin assignment section?
Jun 1, 2015 12:13 PM - Mike Kelly: just do a ctrl+f for Motherboard == 34
Jun 1, 2015 12:13 PM - toy: or am i looking in the wrong section of the pins.h
Jun 1, 2015 12:13 PM - Mike Kelly: i have no idea where you're looking
Jun 1, 2015 12:13 PM - toy: pins.h
Jun 1, 2015 12:13 PM - jbigler1986: UPS are great for a few minutes up to like an hour. anything longer you will pay a ton for it. just get a generator
Jun 1, 2015 12:13 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah that's a huge file
Jun 1, 2015 12:14 PM - toy: its broken down into sections depending on your controller type
Jun 1, 2015 12:14 PM - toy: i found the section referring to the arduino mega pin assignment (which i think is the right section)
Jun 1, 2015 12:14 PM - Mike Kelly: i have no idea toy
Jun 1, 2015 12:14 PM - Mike Kelly: gl
Jun 1, 2015 12:14 PM - Mike Kelly: i'm gonna be busy for a while
Jun 1, 2015 12:15 PM - jbigler1986: he needs a breather
Jun 1, 2015 12:15 PM - daniel871: I'm looking for a UPS setup that can run the Robo long enough for the typical power outage time if the power goes out where I live (between 5-7 hours every time)
Jun 1, 2015 12:15 PM - jbigler1986: damn. generator man
Jun 1, 2015 12:16 PM - toy: anyone else running a cyclops? that can help me out with the pins.h file?
Jun 1, 2015 12:18 PM - JeffTheMess: http://www.amazon.com/100AH-BATTERY...1433186283&sr=1-5&keywords=deep+cycle+battery click add one until you wallet bleeds
Jun 1, 2015 12:18 PM - jbigler1986: I think Bill did. Haven't seen him today though. Have you posted in the forum?
Jun 1, 2015 12:19 PM - toy: this is a pretty easy question for someone who else changed their pins.h file
Jun 1, 2015 12:19 PM - JeffTheMess: dan how much space do you realistically have for backup power?
Jun 1, 2015 12:20 PM - toy: easy like.. open the pins.h file and check line 545 to see if that is the line that needs to be changed
Jun 1, 2015 12:20 PM - daniel871:
Jun 1, 2015 12:20 PM - daniel871: As much space as I need. The printer will eventually be put in a shop I invested money into with my parents after the electricity is wired up.
Jun 1, 2015 12:21 PM - daniel871: 25' x 55' building with a proper foundation and everything.

 

Jun 1, 2015 12:21 PM - donhuevo: toy, check out line 730 and tell me what you think
Jun 1, 2015 12:21 PM - daniel871: Hence why I'm fooling around so much with trying to set it up so I can leave it running in the shop and go do something else and not worry about it finishing a print.
Jun 1, 2015 12:22 PM - toy: i saw that one.... but it shows -1
Jun 1, 2015 12:22 PM - Mike Kelly: 6mm retraction looked the same as 4
Jun 1, 2015 12:22 PM - donhuevo: 545 bugs me because TEMP_0 is already 13
Jun 1, 2015 12:22 PM - toy: http://wiki.e3d-online.com/wiki/Cyclops/Chimera_on_RoBo3D according to this it should be default 15
Jun 1, 2015 12:23 PM - toy: Temp_1_Pin
Jun 1, 2015 12:23 PM - jbigler1986: @Daniel i never baby sit my printer. i start a print and walk away
Jun 1, 2015 12:24 PM - jbigler1986: run a generator to the shop. it should have one anyways
Jun 1, 2015 12:24 PM - JeffTheMess: with that much space...sorry to say a gen right outside would be best :/.....you will have alot more maintenance with all those batteries
Jun 1, 2015 12:24 PM - toy: but it looks like line 545 is referencing bvoard type 77
Jun 1, 2015 12:25 PM - toy: hence my confusion
Jun 1, 2015 12:26 PM - daniel871: http://www.amazon.com/Exide-XMC-31-...sbs_263_7?ie=UTF8&refRID=0XM05P7M6CZHGKJY1X6K
Jun 1, 2015 12:26 PM - daniel871: That looks like it might run the current UPS for a while if it was wired in right.
Jun 1, 2015 12:27 PM - donhuevo: the problem is that TEMP_0_PIN is already using 13 on line 544
Jun 1, 2015 12:27 PM - toy: i see that too
Jun 1, 2015 12:28 PM - toy: if you go through the arduino mega pin assignment section... their is no direct reference to board type 34
Jun 1, 2015 12:28 PM - toy: it talks about every other board but 34 =\
Jun 1, 2015 12:28 PM - donhuevo: it's mixed in OR statements
Jun 1, 2015 12:29 PM - jbigler1986: daniel just save the hassle and get a generator
Jun 1, 2015 12:29 PM - JeffTheMess: Dan you going to try that?
Jun 1, 2015 12:30 PM - Stephen Capistron: turn it up to 11
Jun 1, 2015 12:30 PM - Stephen Capistron: what retraction speed?
Jun 1, 2015 12:30 PM - daniel871: Because the kind of generator that will auto-start when the power is interrupted is cheaper.
Jun 1, 2015 12:30 PM - toy: line 730 should be default 15 not -1 if the e3d instructions are correct
Jun 1, 2015 12:30 PM - daniel871: ?
Jun 1, 2015 12:31 PM - JeffTheMess: if you are willing to kind of hack a gen to kick start in it a circuit
Jun 1, 2015 12:32 PM - donhuevo: yep, I'd try 730 first
Jun 1, 2015 12:33 PM - Bill Monroe: a stand-by generator was my solution too
Jun 1, 2015 12:33 PM - toy: ahh bill, u have a cyclops going right?
Jun 1, 2015 12:33 PM - Bill Monroe: not anymore, I pitched that engineering abomination a couple of weeks ago
Jun 1, 2015 12:34 PM - toy: do u remember what line u changed in the pins.h?
Jun 1, 2015 12:34 PM - Bill Monroe: Did you add a FET for the parts fan?
Jun 1, 2015 12:35 PM - Bill Monroe: or that lil fan extension board.. which is the same thing
Jun 1, 2015 12:37 PM - JeffTheMess: autostart http://www.hodgesmarine.com/XANTREX...htm?gclid=CKmjnL2f78UCFVcSHwodAasAjw&click=19
Jun 1, 2015 12:39 PM - Bill Monroe: I'd have to d/l the firmware to recall what changes I made, but I do rememer having to change the parts fan pin to 6
Jun 1, 2015 12:40 PM - Bill Monroe: but was only becuase I used the analog pin 6 to control them..
Jun 1, 2015 12:43 PM - Bill Monroe: toy, you still out there?
Jun 1, 2015 12:44 PM - JeffTheMess: he most be going off trying to finish off
Jun 1, 2015 12:44 PM - Bill Monroe: maybe..
Jun 1, 2015 12:45 PM - Bill Monroe: reading back I see he was asking about board type declaration, that part can be confusing
Jun 1, 2015 12:46 PM - JeffTheMess: http://www.engineering.com/Designer...IT-Cheetah-Robot-Reaches-Major-Milestone.aspx
Jun 1, 2015 12:47 PM - JeffTheMess: a robot jumping
Jun 1, 2015 12:47 PM - jbigler1986: i saw that the other day. awesome stuff
Jun 1, 2015 12:47 PM - JeffTheMess: its all about programming now
Jun 1, 2015 12:48 PM - Bill Monroe: ya, that's what we need, a billion dollar horse
Jun 1, 2015 12:48 PM - JeffTheMess: with a turret on his head
Jun 1, 2015 12:48 PM - jbigler1986: to go with ur billion dollar plane Bill
Jun 1, 2015 12:49 PM - Bill Monroe: I wish
Jun 1, 2015 12:49 PM - Bill Monroe: most expensive plane I ever flown was 197 million
Jun 1, 2015 12:50 PM - Bill Monroe: most I ever owned outright: 45K
Jun 1, 2015 12:50 PM - jbigler1986: that's all. come on
Jun 1, 2015 12:50 PM - Bill Monroe: that's it \
Jun 1, 2015 12:50 PM - Bill Monroe: called a Bombardier Global Express
Jun 1, 2015 12:50 PM - Stephen Capistron: if this was even a year ago, it would be over 200mm now
Jun 1, 2015 12:50 PM - Stephen Capistron: inflation
Jun 1, 2015 12:50 PM - Bill Monroe: got type rated, then never flew it again
Jun 1, 2015 12:51 PM - jbigler1986: but you could fly around Justin Bieber
Jun 1, 2015 12:52 PM - JeffTheMess: ( a dream come true)
Jun 1, 2015 12:52 PM - Bill Monroe: he'd get a new nickname if I flew him
Jun 1, 2015 12:52 PM - Bill Monroe: Justin "Bombs Away" Bieber
Jun 1, 2015 12:52 PM - jbigler1986: please do
Jun 1, 2015 12:53 PM - Bill Monroe: actually, I've seen a couple recent interviews.. he seems to be maturing
Jun 1, 2015 12:53 PM - JeffTheMess: Hey Justin can you stand right here? thanks now smile and say "death" pulls hatch
Jun 1, 2015 12:58 PM - Bill Monroe: my plane is just a few days away from flying again
Jun 1, 2015 12:59 PM - jbigler1986: withdrawals?
Jun 1, 2015 12:59 PM - Bill Monroe: a little.. I have access to others that I've been flying but mine is special
Jun 1, 2015 1:01 PM - jbigler1986: that's bc ur special
Jun 1, 2015 1:01 PM - Bill Monroe: Italian designed, hand built, only a coupld hundred were made and few are left in flying condition.. it's a challenge to own/maintain for the average owner
Jun 1, 2015 1:02 PM - jbigler1986: [bro hug]
Jun 1, 2015 1:02 PM - Bill Monroe:
Jun 1, 2015 1:04 PM - Bill Monroe: it's insanely fast yet it handles beautifully.. many use the "Ferrari of planes" comparison
Jun 1, 2015 1:04 PM - Bill Monroe: I've only driven one Ferrari.. I'd say it's better
Jun 1, 2015 2:33 PM - Mike Kelly: alright back
Jun 1, 2015 3:07 PM - Mike Glass: bad storm about to hit here.
Jun 1, 2015 3:08 PM - Mike Kelly: it's hot here, supposed to be even worse tomorrow
Jun 1, 2015 3:10 PM - Mike Kelly: i need to get in the attic and turn on the fan, really don't want to
Jun 1, 2015 3:11 PM - Mike Glass: you have to plug it in?
Jun 1, 2015 3:13 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah sorta. I never configured the temperature controller
Jun 1, 2015 3:15 PM - Mike Kelly: Also need to mow the lawn. Ugh
Jun 1, 2015 3:21 PM - Mike Glass: yeah I just did the back right before it started raining.
Jun 1, 2015 3:29 PM - toy: mike i looked and cant find the cyclops firmware to compare =\
Jun 1, 2015 3:32 PM - Mike Kelly: where
Jun 1, 2015 3:32 PM - toy: wiki, forums
Jun 1, 2015 3:32 PM - Mike Kelly: you must not have looked very hard
Jun 1, 2015 3:32 PM - Mike Kelly: it's on the wiki page you've linked like 4 times
Jun 1, 2015 3:33 PM - toy: lol i was looking on the robo forums
Jun 1, 2015 3:34 PM - Mike Kelly: you're a special one aren't you
Jun 1, 2015 3:36 PM - Mike Kelly: also if you're using a more recent pull of marlin i have no idea if they're the same or not
Jun 1, 2015 3:37 PM - toy: i was right about it being 545
Jun 1, 2015 3:37 PM - jbigler1986: Back fellas
Jun 1, 2015 3:38 PM - toy: im using the 6-10 marlin
Jun 1, 2015 3:41 PM - jbigler1986: Have you even tried to use MK firmware
Jun 1, 2015 3:42 PM - toy: im not sure what u mean
Jun 1, 2015 3:46 PM - jbigler1986: MK said he had a firmware that was already edited
Jun 1, 2015 3:46 PM - jbigler1986: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:583949 this looks cool
Jun 1, 2015 3:46 PM - toy: but i do see why both TEMP_0_PIN and TEMP_1_PIN both need to be assigned the same pin for the cyclops
Jun 1, 2015 3:48 PM - jbigler1986: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:793499 this is nice
Jun 1, 2015 3:55 PM - Mike Glass: ugg why do some models work fine in cura but not in s3d, damn waste of 3 hour print.
Jun 1, 2015 3:56 PM - Mike Glass: maybe I should print some miniture botles for my scaled down beer caddy.

 

Jun 1, 2015 3:57 PM - Mike Glass: need a transparent brown, not sure I have seen that before.
Jun 1, 2015 4:01 PM - jbigler1986: Someone probably has it
Jun 1, 2015 4:01 PM - Mike Glass: hey how do you like hatchbox pla solid colors?
Jun 1, 2015 4:01 PM - Mike Glass: I only had abs and transparent from them
Jun 1, 2015 4:04 PM - jbigler1986: They are great
Jun 1, 2015 4:06 PM - Mike Glass: almost went through this roll of black in a week, so need order more, Just pla was out at the time and have used this solutech and is nice for a few bucks more
Jun 1, 2015 4:09 PM - jbigler1986: Haven't had any issues with hatchbox at all
Jun 1, 2015 4:09 PM - Mike Glass: I like the Justpla just because I know what temp to run for the size of a part
Jun 1, 2015 4:10 PM - Mike Glass: and had absolutely no warpage with it.
Jun 1, 2015 4:13 PM - jbigler1986: Justpla is good. Except for that freaking tangle
Jun 1, 2015 4:15 PM - Mike Glass: I make sure its not crossed, I will pull 4 feet out before i attach it.
Jun 1, 2015 4:16 PM - jbigler1986: Oh it was a quarter of the way into the spool
Jun 1, 2015 4:16 PM - jbigler1986: About 3 hours into a print
Jun 1, 2015 4:33 PM - Droid: how does one go about creating a 3d print file from a picture
Jun 1, 2015 4:37 PM - jbigler1986: Try mixee popper
Jun 1, 2015 4:42 PM - Mike Kelly: alright mowed the lawn, should earn me some adult points
Jun 1, 2015 4:49 PM - Mike Kelly: now what to do...
Jun 1, 2015 4:50 PM - Mike Kelly:
Jun 1, 2015 4:50 PM - Mike Glass: haha love it
Jun 1, 2015 5:02 PM - jbigler1986: I'm printing the t-rex skull in glow in the dark
Jun 1, 2015 5:06 PM - Mike Glass: did you turn of retraction?
Jun 1, 2015 5:10 PM - Mike Kelly: http://giant.gfycat.com/WatchfulAlarmedHorseshoecrab.gif
Jun 1, 2015 5:11 PM - Mike Glass: man he spilled his beer
Jun 1, 2015 5:11 PM - Mike Kelly: right?
Jun 1, 2015 5:54 PM - jbigler1986: http://m.ustream.tv/channel/jbigler1986
Jun 1, 2015 5:55 PM - TechSupportGo: hello
Jun 1, 2015 6:00 PM - Bill Monroe: jb... went to Frys today, no flex
Jun 1, 2015 6:13 PM - jbigler1986: Booooo
Jun 1, 2015 6:13 PM - Bill Monroe: no shaxon blue either
Jun 1, 2015 6:13 PM - jbigler1986: MK you should detail the paper level a little more
Jun 1, 2015 6:16 PM - Bill Monroe: what brand was the flex?
Jun 1, 2015 6:18 PM - jbigler1986: Gp3d
Jun 1, 2015 6:18 PM - jbigler1986: http://www.frys.com/product/8452878?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG
Jun 1, 2015 6:21 PM - Bill Monroe: hmm doesnt say how much filament is on the spool
Jun 1, 2015 6:28 PM - jbigler1986: .5kg
Jun 1, 2015 6:32 PM - Mike Kelly: You don't think that was clear enough? Maybe show just how far off the bed it is?
Jun 1, 2015 6:36 PM - Bill Monroe: spendy
Jun 1, 2015 6:41 PM - jbigler1986: Well you know how people are. It's very clear to me. Just may not be to a beginner
Jun 1, 2015 6:50 PM - Mike Kelly: ok
Jun 1, 2015 6:57 PM - jbigler1986: Omg ustream is running so slow
Jun 1, 2015 7:51 PM - Droid: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/nptdreamer/npt-lucid-dreamer?ref=category lol
Jun 1, 2015 8:20 PM - Mike Glass: ?
Jun 1, 2015 8:22 PM - Bill Monroe: ?
Jun 1, 2015 8:32 PM - Mike Glass: your still up
Jun 1, 2015 8:32 PM - Bill Monroe: it would seem so
Jun 1, 2015 8:33 PM - Mike Glass: you like ford right?
Jun 1, 2015 8:33 PM - Bill Monroe: some.. not really brand loyal per se
Jun 1, 2015 8:34 PM - Mike Glass: oh, I built a emblem for the cobra,
Jun 1, 2015 8:35 PM - Bill Monroe: nice
Jun 1, 2015 8:35 PM - Mike Glass: ran out of time to color it, will be black and red.
Jun 1, 2015 8:36 PM - Bill Monroe: I have two fords, neither becuase they're fords specifically, both have personal history
Jun 1, 2015 8:36 PM - Bill Monroe: how you going to color ?
Jun 1, 2015 8:37 PM - Mike Glass: I use spray dye used for signs
Jun 1, 2015 8:38 PM - Bill Monroe: i've been thinking about building a tiny router
Jun 1, 2015 8:38 PM - Bill Monroe: 3" square max
Jun 1, 2015 8:40 PM - Bill Monroe: wait, maybe chemical etching would be enough... hmmmm
Jun 1, 2015 8:42 PM - Mike Glass: 3"?
Jun 1, 2015 8:42 PM - Bill Monroe: ya, looking for a way to make medallions for cloisenne
Jun 1, 2015 8:47 PM - Mike Glass: 1.97 extrusion is not good, it makes a bubbly mess on the build plate.
Jun 1, 2015 8:47 PM - Bill Monroe: pk
Jun 1, 2015 8:47 PM - Bill Monroe: errr
Jun 1, 2015 8:47 PM - Bill Monroe: ok
Jun 1, 2015 8:48 PM - Mike Glass: I wanted honeycomb so had to go to repetier, it was all messed up.
Jun 1, 2015 8:52 PM - Bill Monroe: this print should be done in 15 mons or so, then I'm going to start and 18 hour print and go find 2.0
Jun 1, 2015 8:53 PM - Mike Glass: wow, what you going to print?
Jun 1, 2015 8:54 PM - Bill Monroe: a part for a press fixture.. I made it in white polycarb but the mfg asked me to make it in blue...
Jun 1, 2015 8:55 PM - Bill Monroe: mfg engineer
Jun 1, 2015 8:55 PM - Mike Glass: so picky
Jun 1, 2015 8:56 PM - Bill Monroe: yes she is.. but she's uber hot so we all do what she asks
Jun 1, 2015 8:57 PM - Bill Monroe: 2.0 is working on her potters wheel.. I should channel Bobby Hatfield and go "help" her
Jun 1, 2015 8:59 PM - Mike Glass: hah, ok nite,
Jun 1, 2015 9:00 PM - Bill Monroe: take care
Jun 1, 2015 9:00 PM - Bill Monroe:

 

Jun 2, 2015 at 3:42 AM - jbigler1986: Morning
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:09 AM - JeffTheMess: Good morning on this beautiful cloudy day
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:10 AM - jbigler1986: nice and sunny here
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:18 AM - JeffTheMess: cool, good to have a break sometimes
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:19 AM - JeffTheMess: you printing
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:20 AM - jbigler1986: yeah
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:20 AM - jbigler1986: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/jbigler1986
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:29 AM - jbigler1986:
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:29 AM - JeffTheMess: nice...all done on one print?
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:31 AM - jbigler1986: printed that last night.
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:31 AM - jbigler1986: it's 2 parts. I printed them at the same time though
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:36 AM - JeffTheMess: how long was that bad boy
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:36 AM - jbigler1986: only 7 hours
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:38 AM - Bill Monroe: gooooood morning
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:38 AM - jbigler1986: morning
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:39 AM - Bill Monroe: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/bills-lab
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:46 AM - jbigler1986: what is that Bill?
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:46 AM - Bill Monroe:
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:47 AM - Bill Monroe: grip for a press fixture
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:47 AM - Bill Monroe: makerbot blue
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:48 AM - JeffTheMess: morning Bill
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:48 AM - Bill Monroe: Hi Jeff
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:49 AM - jbigler1986: i almost had to do that 1 day. Frys was out and I almost bought the makerbot. Couldn't pull the trigger though. Just did next day amazon instead
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:50 AM - Bill Monroe: ya, I wanted to but our Mexico plant is waiting for the machine...
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:50 AM - Bill Monroe: company pay for ir, and I get the rest of the roll so...
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:52 AM - JeffTheMess: good to know your making some money out of it
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:52 AM - Bill Monroe: what I love though is that my R1.jbigler lets me just mount any PLA and print it perfectly making NO changes to any setting.
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:53 AM - Bill Monroe: no bums, no shrinks, no hairs
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:54 AM - Bill Monroe: ut oh
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:54 AM - Bill Monroe: just got a temp fail
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:54 AM - JeffTheMess: so Bill, I tried the no raft. the parts weren't to big....it stuck on to the bed with no aquanet...just slight curling
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:54 AM - Bill Monroe: first one ever
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:57 AM - Bill Monroe: nice Jeff!
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:57 AM - Bill Monroe: looks like my thermistor might have died
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:58 AM - Bill Monroe: nope now it's back
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:58 AM - Bill Monroe: maybe the extra fan was too much
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:59 AM - Bill Monroe: gads.. the surface on the part is fooking amazing
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:59 AM - JeffTheMess: you should see my fan....its extreme overkill....3in fan 4 in thick fan
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:01 AM - Bill Monroe: I only have one fan on the head, added a centrifugal fan this morning, 10 10 mins later temp fail
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:08 AM - JeffTheMess: yeah my extra fan is for the ramps....but its way to overkill I have to cut down the voltage a bit because it starts to mess with my print
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:13 AM - Bill Monroe: I think half of Makerbot's cost is in the sexy box they use for packaging
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:15 AM - JeffTheMess: we have the huge one here for testing
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:31 AM - jbigler1986: yeah they are sluts
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:31 AM - jbigler1986: consumers will pay for nice looking packaging
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:31 AM - jbigler1986: look at apple and their packaging
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:34 AM - Bill Monroe: well at least I can repurpose the Makerbot box... I use one to hold all my little spools of 26AWG wire
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:35 AM - Bill Monroe: 2.0 sprayed one with some nifty coating and uses it to store her grandmother's pearl necklace.. complete with a velvet lining
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:35 AM - jbigler1986: fancy
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:35 AM - Bill Monroe: i got the "save the box" warning when I brought the blue home
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:36 AM - jbigler1986: yeah my robo i just add another spool of PLA (doesn't matter what brand) leave everything the same and keep on going
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:36 AM - Bill Monroe: she knows I'll do anything when she's wearing those tiny yoga shorts
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:37 AM - jbigler1986: i'm a big fan of the "boy shorts"
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:37 AM - Bill Monroe: think smaller
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:37 AM - JeffTheMess: mind control
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:37 AM - Bill Monroe: and painted on
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:37 AM - Bill Monroe: oh ya. that's the ones
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:38 AM - jbigler1986: those is what I'm talking about
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:38 AM - Bill Monroe: wait.. that's 2.0!
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:38 AM - jbigler1986: those are all my wife wears. love them
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:38 AM - Bill Monroe: why, I outta..... i hate when you take over my security cams

Jun 2, 2015 at 6:46 AM - JeffTheMess: nice
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:48 AM - jbigler1986: anyone here think african americans are more racists than whites?
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:48 AM - JeffTheMess: they are
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:48 AM - Bill Monroe: no doubt
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:48 AM - Bill Monroe: and enabled
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:48 AM - jbigler1986: i was thinking that myself
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:49 AM - jbigler1986: think the world owes them everything
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:50 AM - JeffTheMess: they weren't the only slaves and tortured people out there
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:50 AM - JeffTheMess: just sayin
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:50 AM - Bill Monroe:
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:50 AM - jbigler1986: i'm not racist but that is a big reason why I live where I do
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:50 AM - Bill Monroe: most of the slavers were africans
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:50 AM - JeffTheMess: I just got a mini poodle for my daughters birthday
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:51 AM - Bill Monroe: funny when a golden retriever looks like a lion with a dog's head
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:51 AM - jbigler1986: lol
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:52 AM - Bill Monroe: but it's already getting over 100 here and that's just too much fur to tolerate it
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:53 AM - jbigler1986: i bet they are liking that
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:53 AM - Bill Monroe: ya.. the terrier slept all night like a baby
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:54 AM - Bill Monroe: brb gotta warm up the glue gun
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:57 AM - JeffTheMess: (takes that long to warm up? for a brb)
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:59 AM - Bill Monroe: it's in the shop
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:01 AM - jbigler1986: man I should have cut the lettering part off the part and printed it seperatly in a different color. dang it
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:02 AM - JeffTheMess: buy some liquid glass and fill it
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:05 AM - Bill Monroe: wait.. liquid glass?
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:05 AM - JeffTheMess: yeah
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:06 AM - donhuevo: morning
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:07 AM - JeffTheMess: i guess its not "liquid glass" but its what they call it

 

Jun 2, 2015 at 7:07 AM - Bill Monroe: need more input
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:07 AM - donhuevo: some kind of acrylic?
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:08 AM - JeffTheMess: yes
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:09 AM - Bill Monroe: colors?
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:11 AM - JeffTheMess: orfcourse....it is also used for women's nails if they so desire it
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:12 AM - JeffTheMess: example...... http://cdn.opentip.com/Office-Produ...4594361.html?gclid=CO28o9OY8cUCFVcUHwodshcAWQ
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:13 AM - jbigler1986: Bill should know about it then already
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:14 AM - JeffTheMess: it would look great for your application JB
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:14 AM - JeffTheMess: Bill knows everything, I'd figured he would know
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:15 AM - jbigler1986: was thinking for his nails
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:15 AM - JeffTheMess: (it's a compliment, Bill)
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:15 AM - Bill Monroe: ya, I'll ask the little asian woman that does my toenails
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:15 AM - JeffTheMess: lol
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:15 AM - Bill Monroe:
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:16 AM - jbigler1986: might try fingernail polish and see how it turns out
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:17 AM - JeffTheMess: nice, get a needle syringe to do so
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:17 AM - JeffTheMess: will have a nice glossy finish
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:18 AM - jbigler1986: good idea
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:18 AM - Bill Monroe: I need to make a couple of control wheel medallions for my plane, no originals exist anymore
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:18 AM - JeffTheMess: just conact your local crack house lol JK
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:19 AM - jbigler1986: i do have some extra food injectors
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:19 AM - Bill Monroe: they're cloisenne.. and look something like this:
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:19 AM - Bill Monroe: but this one was silk screen and for a 1957.. mine is a '59
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:20 AM - JeffTheMess: sounds like a small hobby business venture bill
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:20 AM - Bill Monroe: well, since there's only 14 planes left.. probably not going to make any money
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:20 AM - Bill Monroe: i'm looking into chemical etching the brass materal
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:21 AM - jbigler1986: would need to cut the needle though since it doesnt come out of the tip
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:21 AM - Bill Monroe: then, to make them closer to original, filling the spaces with ceramic and firing it
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:21 AM - Bill Monroe: not ceramic.. enamel
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:21 AM - Bill Monroe: like the stuff they used to use on bathtubs
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:24 AM - JeffTheMess: yeah i would recommend some cheap liquid arclyic print a test a letter (small engrave) then get it a whirl
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:26 AM - jbigler1986: chemical etching sounds fun
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:27 AM - Bill Monroe: http://www.instructables.com/id/How-To-Electro-Etch-a-Solid-Metal-Plaque/
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:27 AM - daniel871: Hey Bill, this is probably a little weird, but I got a weird match on the dating app on my phone yesterday evening. Does 2.0 have relatives in Georgia or something?
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:27 AM - Bill Monroe: kinda looks like here sister.. but she lives in washington
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:28 AM - jbigler1986: question is why you have her photo
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:28 AM - jbigler1986: hmmmmm
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:28 AM - daniel871: Shoutbox archive + MS Paint for copy/paste humor.
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:28 AM - jbigler1986: forgot about the archive
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:28 AM - Bill Monroe: that's why she'll only let me share that one
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:29 AM - Bill Monroe: "creepy pic collectors"
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:29 AM - jbigler1986: that's what i was thinking
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:29 AM - daniel871: Anything ever posted online it out there anyway. Had someone dig up a pic of me and a friend from back in middle school that was out there somehow a couple years ago.
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:30 AM - daniel871: (the person digging up the photo did it a couple years ago, middle school wasn't a couple years ago, to be clear)
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:31 AM - JeffTheMess: nice
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:31 AM - Bill Monroe: she's on youtube anyway.. flashing Mick Jaggar with her sister and freinds
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:31 AM - JeffTheMess: sounds like a party Bill
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:32 AM - Bill Monroe: they went to the concert
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:32 AM - daniel871: That particular profile was funny anyway, only a 30% match by the methods that site uses due to answering the "do you like racism/slavery/eugenics" questions with positive answers vs. my negative ones.
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:32 AM - Bill Monroe: the stones gave an unannounced free concert at a local club the next night..
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:33 AM - Bill Monroe: those guys have endless energy
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:33 AM - jbigler1986: AND MONEY
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:34 AM - Bill Monroe: that too
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:34 AM - daniel871: Also drugs and stds.
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:34 AM - Bill Monroe: and you know this how?
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:34 AM - daniel871: Rock singers can't last long without collecting all of those things?
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:34 AM - Bill Monroe: ah, so you're assuming it
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:35 AM - Bill Monroe: actually, they cleaned up years ago
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:35 AM - jbigler1986: if it's on the internet it's true
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:36 AM - daniel871: Also they've openly talked about the members with them in interviews.
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:36 AM - Bill Monroe: Jaggar was jogging/hiking through the canyons the day before the concert.. facebook pics galore
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:36 AM - jbigler1986: ha. facebook. you guys are funny
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:36 AM - Bill Monroe: didnt say no to anyone wanting a selfie or autographs
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:37 AM - JeffTheMess: must everything be on facebook
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:38 AM - Bill Monroe: if you're social
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:38 AM - daniel871: Plus the medical histories of any celebrity is basically public knowledge. I mean, we even have cooking show hosts being tailed by paparazzi to produce stories about their breast/colon/testicular cancers.
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:38 AM - daniel871: Cooking show hosts! Not even musicians or artists or actors.
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:38 AM - Bill Monroe: and the enquirer is basically local rap sheets...
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:38 AM - Bill Monroe: i know that's true, I saw it in a movie
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:38 AM - jbigler1986: I'm social and not on facebook. Didn't know it was required to be social
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:39 AM - jbigler1986: lol Bill
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:39 AM - daniel871: Just be glad you aren't being pointed to Twitter constantly.
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:39 AM - daniel871: #hashtag
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:40 AM - donhuevo: hashtag RichardGere'sGerbil
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:40 AM - daniel871: Though I guess Twitter has the comedy aspect to it that is a little fun to watch if you're into dry humor.
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:40 AM - Bill Monroe: https://www.facebook.com/mickjagger...1297223904127/961297107237472/?type=1&theater
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:40 AM - daniel871: Like the Palestinian accounts sending tips to people getting teargassed in the Baltimore riots for how to wash it out of their eyes.
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:41 AM - Bill Monroe: 2.0 and I rode out bikes down that same path about a hour or two before that pic was taken
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:42 AM - daniel871: Volcano kit and enclosure kit came in last night. So now I've got something to do Saturday morning while the rest of the world is asleep.
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:49 AM - jbigler1986: haven't used my .8 or .6 in over a month
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:49 AM - jbigler1986: i use the .4 and .25 usually
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:52 AM - Bill Monroe: ever try bronze fill with the .25?
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:53 AM - jbigler1986: nope or with any nozzle
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:53 AM - Bill Monroe: ok.. i think it's too small but always looking for valid input
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:53 AM - daniel871: Got another clog last night giving the SST from Protopasta one last go on the v6. I hate how it refuses to print for very long before fucking up.
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:54 AM - jbigler1986: gonna try a .1 nozzle this weekend
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:55 AM - daniel871: On what?
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:55 AM - daniel871: Simple calibration cube or something or an actual part?
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:56 AM - jbigler1986: i'm just kidding. .25 is the smallest i have seen
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:58 AM - Bill Monroe: wait, I'll see if I can find one on the internet
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:58 AM - jbigler1986: you find one i will buy it
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:58 AM - daniel871: I found a forum post where someone is looking for one, but no actual product listings yet.
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:59 AM - jbigler1986: any smaller than .25 and i will buy it
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:59 AM - Bill Monroe: gads.. while looking for the glue gun I found 4 more servo motors... I'm motor-crazy
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:00 AM - jbigler1986: build a robot
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:00 AM - Bill Monroe: i do that for a living
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:01 AM - Bill Monroe: i want to make a 30 ft arm on a swivel base about 12 feet up.. hydraulic powered
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:01 AM - daniel871: Build a robot that builds other robots.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:02 AM - Bill Monroe: paint the whole thing black and mount a santa, sleigh, and raindeer on it
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:02 AM - Bill Monroe: light it up

 

Jun 2, 2015 at 8:02 AM - Bill Monroe: there's no street lights out here so, the arm would me invisible
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:02 AM - Bill Monroe: me=be
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:04 AM - Bill Monroe: during off season, I could have a sign on it that moves out over looky-loos at night that lights up and says,., go away. then goes dark and hides
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:04 AM - Bill Monroe: hang a skeleton from it on halloween
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:04 AM - Bill Monroe: except, we dont get trick or treaters so, that would be a waste
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:05 AM - Bill Monroe: put a plane on it, with a huge landing light, that comes out and lights up the road and gate when cars arrive.. then disappears
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:07 AM - Bill Monroe: how about a big-ass head that appears floating next to the car when it arrives at the gate.. with a camera.. lips and eyes that move when I speak to ask who's there?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:07 AM - Bill Monroe: omg that's it
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:08 AM - Bill Monroe: big ole subwoofer that makes their car shake when I speak
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:08 AM - Bill Monroe: who dares to address the great OZ?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:10 AM - JeffTheMess: the yoga shorts
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:12 AM - daniel871: Ewwwww.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:12 AM - daniel871: Why would somebody do that?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:13 AM - daniel871: On a related note:
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:13 AM - jbigler1986: wtf. fuck that
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:14 AM - Mike Kelly: morning
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:14 AM - daniel871: Nice timing.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:14 AM - jbigler1986: morning

Jun 2, 2015 at 8:18 AM - daniel871: You know a food gimmick has run it's course when it starts showing up in alcohol and lubricants.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:21 AM - jbigler1986: "I stopped it but it created all that intersection, why?" really. come on man
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:21 AM - Mike Kelly: btw saying "i'm not racist but" means you're racist
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:21 AM - daniel871: Yep.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:21 AM - jbigler1986: i'm not at all
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:22 AM - jbigler1986: more of an annoyance than racists
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:22 AM - Mike Kelly: no one says "i'm not racist but I think vanilla is better than chocolate ice cream"
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:22 AM - Mike Kelly: it's always followed by something racist
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:22 AM - daniel871: Kind of like how "With all due respect" will be followed by something as disrespectful as possible.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:23 AM - jbigler1986: i dated a mixed girl for 2 years
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:24 AM - daniel871: Wait, did JB say something racist and I missed it?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:24 AM - jbigler1986: nope
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:24 AM - Mike Kelly: "Don't take offense to this but" *something offensive*
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:24 AM - jbigler1986: what did i say that was offensive
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:25 AM - Mike Kelly: it's a comedy bit actually
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:25 AM - daniel871: "I don't usually get this drunk, but"
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:25 AM - Mike Kelly: i forget from who
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:25 AM - Mike Kelly: oh demitri martin
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:25 AM - daniel871: George Carlin used it once I think.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:26 AM - daniel871: Probably less an original bit and more something every comedian that does societal/political commentary uses.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:26 AM - daniel871: (except the blue collar guys and the one with the stupid puppets, because that would alienate their audience)
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:26 AM - Bill Monroe:
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:27 AM - Mike Kelly: http://imgur.com/gallery/hmY1B

Jun 2, 2015 at 8:29 AM - Mike Kelly: lol
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:29 AM - daniel871: Yours is animated though.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:29 AM - JeffTheMess: lol
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:29 AM - jbigler1986: well i didn't say anything racists or really offensive. so.......
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:29 AM - Mike Kelly: no but it doesn't matter really
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:30 AM - Mike Kelly: it's just the inference that you need to qualify it
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:30 AM - daniel871: I'm not a material bigot, but I'm not seeing the appeal of regular PLA filament.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:30 AM - daniel871:
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:30 AM - jbigler1986: vs?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:31 AM - jbigler1986: cheap!
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:31 AM - jbigler1986: easy to print with
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:32 AM - jbigler1986: smells good (MK doesn't think so)
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:34 AM - Mike Kelly: you know all those PLA scented candles
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:35 AM - daniel871: PET+ has printed more easily for me. No bed prep required and no smell. A bit more expensive sure, but I'm not seeing the downside for that.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:36 AM - Mike Kelly: also guys just a friendly reminded that most people are here at work. Let's try and keep the topics PG. I got a complaint
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:36 AM - Mike Kelly: so no butt pics
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:36 AM - jbigler1986: booooo
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:36 AM - jbigler1986: fine
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:38 AM - jbigler1986: Complaint from work or someone on the forum
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:38 AM - Mike Kelly: forum
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:39 AM - jbigler1986: it was Bill. I knew it. lol
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:41 AM - Mike Kelly: he was deeply offended
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:41 AM - jbigler1986: Highly doubt it was actually Bill
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:42 AM - Mike Kelly: but yeah, to add to my statement 3d printing is bi-partisan, racial neutral, gender neutral, so let's try and avoid comments that would make anyone feel bullied
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:42 AM - daniel871: Wait, somebody posted butt pics and I missed it?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:42 AM - jbigler1986: But seriously if you are worried about what someone sees on your computer while at work you probably shouldn't be on a chat
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:42 AM - Mike Kelly: not really the point
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:43 AM - jbigler1986: i get your point
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:43 AM - donhuevo: that may have been me
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:43 AM - daniel871: I like the policy on another support forum I go to.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:43 AM - donhuevo: and the oversized stripper I found for jb yesterday
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:43 AM - jbigler1986: lmao
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:43 AM - daniel871: They basically say they're free to ban you at any time for any reason, and if you're offended by something that's your problem, don't browse at work and get mad if you get fired for it.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:44 AM - donhuevo: I sincerely apologize
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:44 AM - daniel871: I thought that was from a Jack Black movie for some reason.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:45 AM - donhuevo: although thankfully, her butt was facing away from the camera
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:45 AM - donhuevo: to be fair
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:49 AM - daniel871: The folds in the gut may have thrown off the person that was complaining.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:49 AM - donhuevo: may be
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:49 AM - donhuevo: I will find a way to do some penance to make up for that
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:50 AM - JeffTheMess:
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:51 AM - jbigler1986: i will stick to nothing but 3d printing talk as to not possible affend someone
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:53 AM - JeffTheMess: (don't want to offend any Mister Softees lol )
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:54 AM - daniel871: Quick, let's discuss the Raspberry Pi 3d Printed Spy Tank. http://www.instructables.com/id/Raspberry-Pi-Spy-Tank/?ALLSTEPS
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:54 AM - donhuevo: yep and I went and mentioned Richard Gere's gerbil earlier. I'm a horrible person
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:54 AM - Mike Glass: hey hey hey.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:54 AM - daniel871: You'll offend people that watch old person TV shows and see nothing but viagra and cialis commercials all the time.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:54 AM - jbigler1986: wonder how long finger nail polish will hold up
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:54 AM - donhuevo: depends on how much you chew on it jb... duh
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:55 AM - JeffTheMess: lol
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:55 AM - JeffTheMess: are you going to try it jb?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:55 AM - Mike Glass: JB I have .2 nozzle, if you have a hex.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:55 AM - jbigler1986: why not. just fill in the lettering
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:55 AM - jbigler1986: i have a hex but don't use it

 

Jun 2, 2015 at 8:56 AM - daniel871: How difficult is it to make a program that pauses for a filament change before continuing? Does it require a custom firmware that looks for an input from the LCD controller before continuing ("Press Button when Ready to Continue")?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:57 AM - daniel871: Seems related to the bit about filling in lettering and wondering if that would be an alternative to working out a dual extruder. Somebody ought to already have it figured out.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:57 AM - jbigler1986: M0 will pause a print
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:57 AM - jbigler1986: gotta edit the gcode
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:57 AM - Mike Glass: Don, I have a picture here somewhere with RG and gerbils comming out his mouth, we put that on a users desktop as she loved RG..lol
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:58 AM - daniel871: M0 waits for an input before continuing, like an M1 on a CNC mill?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:58 AM - donhuevo: no need to send that my way. seriously
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:58 AM - donhuevo: you may not like what you get back
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:58 AM - daniel871: Calm.jpg, don?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:58 AM - jbigler1986: then you just press the button on the lcd to resume
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:59 AM - daniel871: Ok, jb. So the hard part is locating the spot in the program where you want to do the change.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:59 AM - Mike Glass: oh wait it wasnt his mouth..lol
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:00 AM - donhuevo: haha. I did something a little different to a girl who is a huge jason aldean fan. I took her wallpaper and replaced his face with the guy who sits in the cube next to her
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:01 AM - daniel871: I never got that complicated with office pranks. I just did the keyboard command to rotate the image on their monitor 90 or 180 degrees so that everything displays upside-down or sideways.
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:01 AM - daniel871: Only worked on Dell machines, though.
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:01 AM - Mike Kelly: if you really want to mess with someone just change their keyboard layout to Dvorak
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:01 AM - Mike Glass: lol thats funny
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:02 AM - Mike Glass: who doesnt use Dvorak?
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:05 AM - Mike Kelly: people who like to type slow
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:06 AM - Mike Kelly: i spent one crappy summer internship learning dvorak
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:07 AM - Mike Kelly: realized it's very useless because then you can never use another computer
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:07 AM - Mike Glass: hah I tried it for a week, then ran into the same issue.
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:10 AM - Stephen Capistron: I have never heard of Dvorak. I think my head would explode trying to use that.
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:10 AM - Mike Kelly: haha
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:10 AM - Mike Kelly: it's hard to unlearn qwerty
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:10 AM - donhuevo: like that guy who reversed the bicycle handlebars
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:10 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah that was crazy
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:13 AM - donhuevo: just in case...
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:15 AM - Mike Glass: here a go don.
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:16 AM - donhuevo: nice
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:16 AM - Mike Glass: she actually kept it for awhile..lol
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:24 AM - jbigler1986: hey hey hey now
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:25 AM - Mike Kelly: well it's sounding like we wont' have the budget to upgrade solidworks
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:25 AM - donhuevo: your potential investor ran screaming?
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:25 AM - Mike Glass: oh goody, you get to use blender now..lol
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:25 AM - Mike Kelly: guess i get to enjoy the look of the spinning loading bubble
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:26 AM - Stephen Capistron: <sad trumbone noise>
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:26 AM - donhuevo: like one of Marilyn Munster's dates?
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:26 AM - jbigler1986: so they only want you to work half of the time
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:26 AM - Mike Glass: or at least a 1/16
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:27 AM - jbigler1986: isn't having a working cad like square one for you guys
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:30 AM - Mike Kelly: well square 1 is having someone to actually buy our systems
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:30 AM - Mike Kelly: found out yesterday the one we're currently testing for deployment no longer has a well site to send it to
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:30 AM - Mike Kelly: the company we're working with is "satisfying their flare capture" so naturally they don't care to capture more
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:31 AM - Mike Kelly: it's just all very shitty and disheartening
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:31 AM - Mike Kelly: so we've got 4 other units being built right now that probably will suffer the same fate
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:32 AM - donhuevo: and Aleph?
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:34 AM - Mike Kelly: dragged my feet too much
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:35 AM - Mike Kelly: our only hope right now is some international client outright buying a unit or 5
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:36 AM - Mike Kelly: which is kinda like betting on a horse to win the triple crown
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:36 AM - donhuevo: all of our frackers are from Texas
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:38 AM - jbigler1986: sorry to hear that mike
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:38 AM - Mike Kelly: just like all my ex's
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:38 AM - Mike Kelly: so not in the best mood this morning
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:39 AM - Mike Kelly: and i got accused of making a design mistake when in reality it was a manufacturing issue
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:39 AM - daniel871: frackers?
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:39 AM - Mike Kelly: mother fracker
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:42 AM - daniel871: At least you aren't George Zimmerman.
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:43 AM - daniel871: Or the guy that shot at him first recently.
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:45 AM - daniel871: Article link from the CSmonitor since what's-his-name hasn't posted a news story yet. http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Justice/2015/0511/George-Zimmerman-injured-in-road-rage-shooting-video
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:46 AM - Mike Kelly: florida is so messed up
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:48 AM - Mike Kelly: it's the state the rest of the south can go "well at least we're not as bad as florida"
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:49 AM - daniel871: What do you expect, it's where all of the people that managed to survive long enough and make enough money go to die.
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:50 AM - Stephen Capistron: http://www.autoblog.com/2015/06/01/nissan-gtr-lm-nismo-jay-leno-garage-video/
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:50 AM - Mike Kelly: that car looks funny
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:51 AM - Stephen Capistron: this is probably the best explanation of the car i've seen
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:52 AM - Mike Kelly: kinda reminds me of a viper
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:53 AM - daniel871: After someone got to talking about the Tesla Powerwall the other day, I find myself wishing I could afford a Model S.
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:54 AM - Mike Kelly: lol
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:54 AM - Mike Kelly: my chief investor owns 2
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:55 AM - Mike Kelly: he hauls the second one on a flat bed behind him for when his battery runs out
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:55 AM - daniel871: That Autopilot feature seems awesome.
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:55 AM - Mike Kelly: (just kidding)
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:56 AM - daniel871: Set an alarm for the car to signal the garage to open, pull itself out to where you'll get in, then basically monitor traffic radio and speed limit signs while running radar systems to avoid other cars and stop when required for the commute.
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:56 AM - daniel871: Damn.
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:56 AM - Mike Kelly: lol the story of the driver for that car is awesome stephen
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:56 AM - daniel871: http://www.teslamotors.com/models
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:58 AM - Stephen Capistron: i know
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:58 AM - Mike Kelly: who said video games never get you anywhere in life?!
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:58 AM - Stephen Capistron: one cramped front end
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:01 AM - donhuevo: so free copies of Windows 10. Don't know what to make of that
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:01 AM - Mike Kelly: APPS
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:01 AM - Mike Kelly: man i wish i could do automotive design
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:03 AM - donhuevo: nobody here is stopping you
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:04 AM - Stephen Capistron: i think you should see if there are any wind turbine mfg in your area. I know one of the current limitations in the business is they can only transport blades that are so long. Some people, i have no idea who, are working towards onsite mfg of the blades.
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:04 AM - daniel871: I wish that Tesla vehicle had solar cells on it to help keep the batteries charged when not near a supercharger station.
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:04 AM - Mike Kelly: it seems so logical to cover the roof in solar panels but maybe i'm missing something
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:04 AM - Stephen Capistron: then no sunroof
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:05 AM - daniel871: Probably easily damaged by highway stuff.
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:05 AM - Stephen Capistron: most (all?) are also parked indoors
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:05 AM - daniel871: Not sure how durable they are when washed by the usual car wash detergents either.
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:06 AM - Sims Reaper: Hello guys
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:07 AM - daniel871: Ha! there is a Supercharger station not even a mile from where I work.
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:08 AM - daniel871: If only I had the money to buy one.
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:08 AM - Mike Glass: I hate Tesla's pricing base price is based off 10K savings, so dumb.
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:08 AM - Mike Kelly: seems like you'd get a slight increase in mileage running with solar
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:08 AM - Sims Reaper: If anyone here uses Simplify, I have a quick question. When setting you Z-height offset in the "G-Code Offsets" parameter, does going to negative number make it go closer to the board, or farther away?
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:09 AM - Mike Kelly: but i guess there's weight tradeoffs
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:09 AM - Mike Kelly: man that engine doesn't have an inch of space free
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:10 AM - Stephen Capistron: Nope. They were like "hey we need to add this widgit, go find some space where this will fit in the cad model"

 

Jun 2, 2015 at 10:10 AM - Stephen Capistron: I like how long the exhaust pipes are after the turbos
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:11 AM - daniel871: I think a negative number is tricky either way, Sims Reaper, and you should probably double check whether the X-axis is parallel to the bed or not.
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:12 AM - daniel871: Because most of my auto-level/touchoff issues were fixed by making sure that was correct first.
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:13 AM - daniel871: I've not had to make any offset adjustments.
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:21 AM - jbigler1986: once you find the offset it will almost always stay that
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:22 AM - jbigler1986: going more negative will raise it
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:22 AM - Mike Kelly: only with M565
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:23 AM - Mike Kelly: If it's just a traditional offset you want a positive offset
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:23 AM - Sims Reaper: I've checked my x-axis, and it works good for most prints, I just want to see if I can lower it a touch. I seem to just be laying down the first layer, and I would like a little more of a "press down"
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:23 AM - jbigler1986: he said simplify which adds M565 pretty sure
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:24 AM - Mike Kelly: not sure on that one tbh
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:24 AM - Mike Kelly: i just use M565
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:24 AM - Sims Reaper: Thanks. That was what I thought I saw this last time. I added a negative offset and it seemed higher from the bed so I was wondering if that was the case
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:25 AM - Sims Reaper: I'll try a postivie offset next print and see if I can confirm it
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:25 AM - jbigler1986: yeah. so if you are at like -0.6 and want it lower you would go something like -0.55
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:25 AM - Sims Reaper: I'm actually trying to print out your latches Mike
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:26 AM - Sims Reaper: for the enclosure.
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:27 AM - Stephen Capistron: Interesting China problems > http://www.csmonitor.com/World/Asia...new-smoking-ban-faces-economic-blowback-video
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:27 AM - Stephen Capistron: In a nutshell "the government agency charged with dissuading people from smoking cigarettes also runs the company that has a monopoly on making and selling cigarettes."
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:29 AM - daniel871: Can't you just set the first layer height in Simplify3D to be lower than the other layers?
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:30 AM - daniel871: Yep.
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:31 AM - Sims Reaper: Ya, but I'm slowly trying to learn what as many of the little options do as possible
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:31 AM - daniel871:
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:32 AM - jbigler1986: plus in other slicers it's good to know M565
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:34 AM - Sims Reaper: haha, I'm such a newb at this stuff. I'm making little changes to the Machine Control Panel and just staring at the printer to see the effects
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:34 AM - jbigler1986: that's the way to do it honestly
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:35 AM - Sims Reaper: Turned my Movement speed down to 60%, and had an immediate quality improvement, really noticeable, which in retrospect really does make sense
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:36 AM - jbigler1986: which speed?
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:38 AM - Sims Reaper: The "Override Settings" speed in the MCP
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:38 AM - Sims Reaper: Also found I was running my extruder quite a bit hotter than I needed to be
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:39 AM - jbigler1986: PLA or ABS?
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:39 AM - Bill Monroe: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/bills-lab
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:40 AM - Sims Reaper: PLA, I need to build the latches for the enclosure in PLA, because I'm just having to much warping with ABS right now
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:41 AM - jbigler1986: welcome to ABfnS
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:41 AM - Sims Reaper: I hear ya
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:42 AM - Stephen Capistron: ABS is awesome
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:42 AM - jbigler1986: go home
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:42 AM - Stephen Capistron: if you can get past the smell
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:42 AM - jbigler1986: jk
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:42 AM - Sims Reaper: I actually got the feet extensions off very well with ABS, until the small narrow parts at the top
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:42 AM - jbigler1986: it NEEDS an enclosure
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:42 AM - Sims Reaper: Those split along the layers.
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:42 AM - Stephen Capistron: 95C bed. enclosure. my slick ABS juice system
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:42 AM - Sims Reaper: So now I have the enclosure built, but need the latches
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:43 AM - Sims Reaper: I even picked up a heat lamp to try to help it out as well lol
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:43 AM - jbigler1986: ABS smell is what has made me not try and mess with it more
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:45 AM - Mike Kelly: did you pick up an enclosure sims or are you making it yourself?
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:45 AM - Sims Reaper: After measuring, cutting, grinding and siliconing all the acrylic panels for the enclosure, I REALLY hope it works
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:45 AM - Sims Reaper: made it myslef... its avg, not totally happy with it but it will def do the trick
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:46 AM - jbigler1986: that's all that matters
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:46 AM - Sims Reaper: Shipping to canada just was a killer to buy the precut
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:47 AM - Stephen Capistron: Sims, you should see how awesome my enclosure is
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:47 AM - daniel871: The foam one?
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:48 AM - Stephen Capistron: yeah
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:48 AM - Stephen Capistron: i should paint it so it at least doesn't look like foam
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:48 AM - Bill Monroe: I love that one
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:48 AM - Sims Reaper: That actually sounds like an awesome idea... way easier to work with at least
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:49 AM - Stephen Capistron: I probably could have splurged on the larger foam panels too but i was feeling cheap
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:49 AM - Bill Monroe: leave it looking like foam SC.. better to celebrate the redneck vibe than try to put lipstick on it
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:49 AM - daniel871: Except for the part about turning your printer into Schrodinger's 3D Printer Box.
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:50 AM - Sims Reaper: haha
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:50 AM - Stephen Capistron: i do have a solution. Backup camera system. All I have to do is tap into the 12V supply
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:50 AM - jbigler1986: there ya go
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:50 AM - jbigler1986: Bill do you have enough support material?
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:50 AM - Sims Reaper: Just cut a small viewing window and use saran wrap
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:51 AM - donhuevo: I enjoy a good 'you might be a redneck' joke from time to time
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:51 AM - jbigler1986: that's
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:51 AM - donhuevo: dangit
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:51 AM - jbigler1986: nobody saw that
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:52 AM - Stephen Capistron: thingiverse has some poor timing given what Texas is dealing with
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:52 AM - Stephen Capistron:
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:52 AM - Bill Monroe: yes I do
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:53 AM - jbigler1986: a quarter of a spool of support? lol
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:53 AM - daniel871: I missed it, what was it that Don did this time?
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:53 AM - Bill Monroe: actually I reduced it some.. I could have turned it upside down but didnt want to dig out support from the hole
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:54 AM - daniel871: Also, hey Don! Somebody said you were the resident UPS expert. What do you use for your Robo?
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:54 AM - Bill Monroe: its not as much as it looks.. 25%
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:55 AM - donhuevo: I'm dissapointed the UP mini isn't Arduino based
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:56 AM - daniel871: I'm going to void all the warranties on my UPS by putting a different battery configuration on it (because it has far more throughput capacity in terms of load capability, just not very much storage for actual backup power time), but I'm curious how much room for power you should have in terms of available amps/wattage.
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:57 AM - Mike Kelly: just remember that 1VA != 1W
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:58 AM - daniel871: I know, the UPS is a 1500VA/900W unit.
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:58 AM - Stephen Capistron: you should go this route
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:58 AM - Stephen Capistron:
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:58 AM - Sims Reaper: Its a little different, but basically ya... You should oversize the VA's though
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:58 AM - jbigler1986: yeah it's closed source too which kinda sucks. awesome print quality though
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:59 AM - Sims Reaper: I bought a 1300VA UPS for my main computer, and turns out I use about 80% of it once its at load...
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:59 AM - jbigler1986: only 2 temperatures on it as well
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:59 AM - Mike Kelly: stephen knows what's up
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:59 AM - Sims Reaper: That looks suspiciously like exercise.......
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:00 AM - daniel871: But the batteries in it are only (2) 7.5AmpHour batteries, which seems weird to me.
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:00 AM - Stephen Capistron: First robo powered by pizza and beer
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:00 AM - daniel871: Psh, go the Beyond Good and Evil route and pipe your farts into a furnace that powers it.
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:00 AM - Stephen Capistron: Mike can design you an exhaust gas recovery system for a little extra output
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:01 AM - Mike Kelly: haha
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:01 AM - Mike Glass: Beer an lasagna would be my choice
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:01 AM - Stephen Capistron: anyone willing to go the oatmeal and beans route?
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:02 AM - daniel871: Chili Con Carne!
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:02 AM - Mike Kelly: man now i'm hungry
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:02 AM - Sims Reaper: How many watts does the Robo draw anyways?
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:02 AM - Stephen Capistron: you are on mountain time, get lunch

 

Jun 2, 2015 at 11:03 AM - daniel871: I've been told between 300-400 or so.
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:03 AM - Mike Glass: thats why I'm hungry, thanks SC
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:03 AM - daniel871: And that's peak.
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:03 AM - Mike Kelly: daniel that's way off
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:03 AM - Mike Kelly: 200 MAX, closer to 100 average
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:03 AM - donhuevo: SRV had a great song called Chitlins con Carne
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:03 AM - Sims Reaper: Really? That seems low
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:03 AM - Mike Kelly: they really don't use much power
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:03 AM - Sims Reaper: Man, my computer is a power hog....
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:03 AM - daniel871: Here is the video I referenced a minute ago.
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:03 AM - Stephen Capistron: bed is like 140W
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:04 AM - Stephen Capistron: extruder is 25W
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:04 AM - Sims Reaper: Bills stream add just scared the crap out of me
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:04 AM - Sims Reaper: aaand turning the volume down no
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:04 AM - Sims Reaper: *now
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:04 AM - Stephen Capistron: everything else is pretty minimal and probably totals 20W
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:05 AM - Bill Monroe: why?
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:05 AM - Bill Monroe: oh, the damn commerical popped up?
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:06 AM - daniel871: The video I linked was the Fart-powered rocket boots thing.
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:06 AM - Sims Reaper: Ya, the commercial. Lol, I had my volume way up last night
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:06 AM - Mike Kelly: i wonder how much usable energy is in a fart
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:06 AM - Mike Kelly: we must know
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:06 AM - Mike Kelly: FOR SCIENCE
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:06 AM - Bill Monroe: ya, does that to me too... i tuend the sound off
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:07 AM - Mike Kelly: someone light their fart and we'll measure the caloric increase
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:07 AM - jbigler1986: lmao
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:08 AM - Sims Reaper: Mike, is the over-movement of the Y-axis during the auto-level on purpose, or can I get rid of that by adjust the max range in the firmware?
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:08 AM - jbigler1986: over movement?
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:08 AM - jbigler1986: you mean outside of the white box?
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:09 AM - Sims Reaper: no, I mean moving until it cant anymore, the physical limit in the forwards direction
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:09 AM - Sims Reaper: only an issue during the auto cal
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:09 AM - jbigler1986: you need to check your switch
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:09 AM - Sims Reaper: just causes the motor to ... is ratchet the word I'm looking for
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:10 AM - Sims Reaper: no the switch works perfectly, but only for hte one direction
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:10 AM - Stephen Capistron: Now, how about the potential for using farts as fuel? You can get 1.420E+5 Joules per mole of H2 burned in O2, so the 0.000335 moles of hydrogen gas in a fart will yield 47.57 J. You can get 8.904E+5 Joules per mole of CH4 burned in O2, so the 0.000112 moles of methane will give us 99.72 J. The combined combustion potential energy of a fart is, therefore, 147.29 Joules. It would keep a 60-watt light bulb lit for one seconds, if the efficiency of
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:11 AM - Stephen Capistron: Sims, your bed wire is catching on something
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:11 AM - Stephen Capistron: http://www.fastcoexist.com/3028933/...ollect-their-fart-gas-and-store-it-for-energy
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:11 AM - daniel871:
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:11 AM - daniel871: My link is better than Stephens.
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:12 AM - jbigler1986: I am not allowed to speak on this. Only 3d printing
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:14 AM - daniel871: Could PLA prints be used in a fart-recycling system, or would the glass transition point be too low?
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:16 AM - jbigler1986: your body temp is 98.6 avg so you will be fine
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:16 AM - jbigler1986: if your fart comes out warmer than your body temp then you may have an issue
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:17 AM - Stephen Capistron: combustion temp will be directly related to the air:fuel ratio
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:17 AM - Mike Kelly: cows are killing our planet
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:17 AM - Mike Kelly: with their farts
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:18 AM - Stephen Capistron: so eat more red meat so there are less cows?
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:19 AM - Mike Kelly: yes!
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:19 AM - Mike Kelly: wait no
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:19 AM - Mike Kelly: that's crazy!
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:19 AM - Mike Kelly: eat bison
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:19 AM - Mike Kelly: lol daniel
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:20 AM - Mike Kelly: "lactose intolerant"
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:21 AM - Stephen Capistron: Could also just put all the cows in a biodome and scavenge all the methane from the top
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:21 AM - Stephen Capistron: How can they cause any trouble if they're in a bubble
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:21 AM - Mike Kelly: i think they'd die from all the farts
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:22 AM - Stephen Capistron: Well you'd constantly be pulling fresh air in from the ground level as you consume the methane
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:22 AM - jbigler1986: I will eat more beef. I love me some steak
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:38 AM - Bill Monroe: There's a dairy here that moves all the manure and urine from the stock twice daily into a pond that's covered with a membrane, inflated by the methane being produced
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:38 AM - Bill Monroe: they burn the methane in a generator to power the place
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:40 AM - Mike Kelly: run the slaughterhouse off cow poop
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:40 AM - Mike Kelly: full circle
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:40 AM - Bill Monroe: it works
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:40 AM - daniel871: Welp, off to get my scan results from last week. Later.
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:40 AM - Mike Kelly: gl
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:50 AM - Sims Reaper: Good luck Dan
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:52 AM - jbigler1986: gl
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:52 AM - jbigler1986: Brazilian grills are the best
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:54 AM - Mike Kelly: agreed
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:55 AM - jbigler1986: endless meat you say? yes please
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:55 AM - Mike Kelly: as well as brazilian girls
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:56 AM - jbigler1986: even better
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:56 AM - Mike Kelly: http://i.imgur.com/8rXc6o6h.png
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:57 AM - jbigler1986: that's legit
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:57 AM - Mike Kelly: also i love this picture: http://i.imgur.com/nzPAcvK.jpg
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:57 AM - Mike Kelly: is it september yet
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:57 AM - jbigler1986: Braydon still hasn't responded to me
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:58 AM - Mike Kelly: man what the hell
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:58 AM - Mike Kelly: want me to message him?
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:58 AM - jbigler1986: i will shoot him another one. I think they get mixed up in his email or something
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:59 AM - Mike Kelly: for the dog door "My neighbor got a dog recently and my dog is ecstatic that he has someone to play with now. Instead of running dogs back and forth around the fence, we decided to put a little doggy door in."
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:59 AM - Mike Glass:
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:03 PM - jbigler1986: not sure if i'm looking forward to this football season or not
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:03 PM - Mike Kelly: i'm cautiously optimistic
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:03 PM - Mike Kelly: they claim TTU is supposed to be last years TCU
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:04 PM - Mike Kelly: and michigan might actually be good again with jim harbough
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:04 PM - Mike Kelly: but who knows
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:04 PM - Mike Kelly: CFB is so chaotic
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:04 PM - Mike Kelly: why i love it so much
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:04 PM - jbigler1986: yeah Hardbough is a great coach. I hate my team right now for letting him go still
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:04 PM - Stephen Capistron: if only the players could make a nickel
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:05 PM - Mike Kelly: that's such a can of worms though
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:05 PM - Mike Kelly: free tuition, food, and room and board is plenty imo
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:05 PM - jbigler1986: My CFB team is never good. just average at best usually
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:05 PM - Mike Kelly: stanford?
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:05 PM - jbigler1986: no. Purdue
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:06 PM - Mike Kelly: oh yeah i remember that
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:06 PM - jbigler1986: I'm all over the map on my teams
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:06 PM - Stephen Capistron: its only worth it so long as the players are allowed to get an actual education and steered towards an education. As it stands now the players are steered towards cupcake majors
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:06 PM - jbigler1986: 49ers, St. Louis Cardinals and Purdue

 

Jun 2, 2015 at 12:06 PM - Stephen Capistron:
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:06 PM - Mike Kelly: that's their choice though
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:07 PM - jbigler1986: Don't give them money. That will take away from why it's so amazing
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:07 PM - Mike Kelly: if you pay CFB players you'd have to pay every NCAA athlete
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:07 PM - Mike Kelly: ^
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:07 PM - Stephen Capistron: But then don't give the coaches and admins money either
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:07 PM - Mike Kelly: that doesn't make sense
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:07 PM - jbigler1986: they are fighting to get their payday
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:08 PM - Mike Kelly: if they pay players they'd need to do a draft
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:08 PM - Mike Kelly: and good luck doing an 116 team draft
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:08 PM - Mike Kelly: otherwise the richest schools would control everything
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:09 PM - Stephen Capistron: It is nuts to call a multi-billion dollar system a collection of amateurs
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:09 PM - Stephen Capistron: Right, they will. And a lot of schools that probably shouldn't be funding a program to begin with will fold. My school included
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:09 PM - Mike Kelly: college football is so great simply because the players are doing it for the love of the game and the chance to prove themselves
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:09 PM - jbigler1986: ^
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:09 PM - Mike Kelly: professional football is shit because they only play so they can play for next season
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:10 PM - jbigler1986: look at the NBA. what a joke that is
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:10 PM - Mike Kelly: they never play at 100%
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:10 PM - Stephen Capistron: The players are doing it because they are not allowed to go pro any sooner. not for the love of the game
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:10 PM - jbigler1986: I love college hoops but i refuse to watch any nba
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:11 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah because a high school graduate could totally compete in the NFL
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:11 PM - toy: i can ball =)
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:11 PM - Mike Kelly: jb if i want to watch old men jogging back and forth i'd go to the gym
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:12 PM - toy: being 6'3 doesnt hurt
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:13 PM - Stephen Capistron: tell that to maurice claret (sp?)
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:13 PM - Stephen Capistron: Wanted to go pro after his freshmen year and was denied by the league and actually lost his supreme court case
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:14 PM - Mike Kelly: go play canadian football then
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:14 PM - Mike Kelly: the point is if a player wants to be paid there are ways
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:14 PM - Mike Kelly: if you want to get into NFL, go to a top tier university with world class coaches and strength training
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:17 PM - toy:
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:18 PM - Mike Kelly: rugby is intense
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:19 PM - jbigler1986: that it is
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:19 PM - toy: yeah.. that dude was huge that laid him out
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:20 PM - Mike Kelly: they're all huge
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:20 PM - Mike Kelly: those guys could rip a head off
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:21 PM - jbigler1986: did they end up making the goal post more narrow? i heard something about them trying to
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:22 PM - Mike Kelly: that sounds right, i know they made them longer
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:23 PM - jbigler1986: for the NFL that is
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:24 PM - Mike Kelly: oh i dunno
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:24 PM - Mike Kelly: i don't really care for the nfl
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:25 PM - toy: mk, did u press fit the threads for the set screws on the bondtechs?
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:26 PM - Mike Kelly: with a soldering iron yes
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:26 PM - Sims Reaper: Haha, so I ran out of PLA building my second set of enclosure latches....
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:26 PM - toy: ugh, i always get a little blob that makes it way into the threads lol
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:26 PM - Sims Reaper: hehe, so, not being one to give up, I "modified" the enclosure and took emergency measures to try for some ABS latches
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:27 PM - Sims Reaper:
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:27 PM - Sims Reaper: heat lamp for help
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:28 PM - jbigler1986: cross ur fingers. may work
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:29 PM - Sims Reaper: meh, all I got for a few days, I have more PLA filament coming, but wont be here for a few days
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:30 PM - jbigler1986: are you in the US
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:31 PM - Sims Reaper: na, canada
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:31 PM - Sims Reaper: I found a few suppliers up here, but I am only ordering a spool at a time to test them out
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:32 PM - jbigler1986: none in stores?
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:32 PM - Sims Reaper: not around my place. Not a big enough city for anything like that
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:33 PM - jbigler1986: fair enough
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:33 PM - Sims Reaper: Isnt even a company that offers a 3D printing service
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:33 PM - jbigler1986: is there an amazon canada
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:34 PM - Mike Kelly: hey you live close to mike g
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:34 PM - Sims Reaper: He's out in Alberta?
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:34 PM - Mike Kelly: nope south of you
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:34 PM - Mike Kelly: (i ip stalked)
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:34 PM - Mike Kelly: south wtf
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:34 PM - Stephen Capistron: Montana
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:35 PM - Sims Reaper: oh ya haha, Ya I dont have my VPN active right now
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:35 PM - Mike Kelly:
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:35 PM - Mike Kelly: it was whenever you made the post actually
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:37 PM - Sims Reaper: I actually had to ship the Robo printer to a border storage facility, then drive down and pick it up. Its a great service, and when our dollar isnt so far behind yours, I am going to order bulk filament that way
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:38 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah you seem pretty close to the border
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:38 PM - Mike Kelly: i guess most of canada is though
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:38 PM - Sims Reaper: yup, just an hour away
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:42 PM - daniel871: Welp, everything was good, so life continues as normal.
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:42 PM - daniel871: Fastest way to spend $75 I know, though.
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:43 PM - jbigler1986: ?
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:43 PM - daniel871: CT scan follow up.
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:43 PM - jbigler1986: oh. at least everything is good
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:44 PM - daniel871: Yep.
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:48 PM - jbigler1986: ahhhhhh. what a week so far
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:49 PM - toy: http://www.wset.com/story/29219398/cops-pennsylvania-man-ran-fake-dui-checkpoint-while-drunk
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:49 PM - toy: things not to do while drunk
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:55 PM - Mike Kelly: lmao
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:55 PM - Mike Kelly: don what are you even doing
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:56 PM - daniel871: Anything in public?
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:56 PM - Mike Kelly: public drunkeness isn't illegal in denver
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:57 PM - daniel871: Hey, on the bright side, he didn't get shot.
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:58 PM - daniel871: Illegal firearm for the BB gun is bullshit though.
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:58 PM - daniel871: (they have enough on the impersonating an officer charge)
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:59 PM - Mike Kelly: they took his gerns
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:04 PM - daniel871: Probably drove a car like this.
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:05 PM - Mike Kelly: i'm so confused by that
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:05 PM - jbigler1986: me too. trying to figure it out
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:05 PM - daniel871: Calvin is kneeling before a cross while peeing on Ford, Dale Earnhardt's #3, France and an islamic dude?
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:06 PM - daniel871: It's like a combination of all the stupid window vinyls that aren't stick figure families.
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:08 PM - daniel871: "The South -- The Car"
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:09 PM - Mike Kelly: probably osama bin laden
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:11 PM - Mike Glass: The wraith has arrived
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:12 PM - Mike Kelly: i'll hijack it and drop a sticky in the cockpit
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:13 PM - Mike Glass: that sounds like a bad porn
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:13 PM - Mike Kelly: Halo
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:13 PM - daniel871: Is that like giving someone you don't like an upper decker?
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:13 PM - daniel871: Never done it myself, only heard about it happening to other people.

 

Jun 2, 2015 at 1:14 PM - daniel871: Or a Chicago Sunroof.
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:15 PM - daniel871: (Don't google that by the way)
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:16 PM - Mike Glass: is that like a clevland steamer?
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:17 PM - daniel871: Not at all.
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:18 PM - daniel871: The one involves a car, the other a toilet, and the steamer is an actual sex act.
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:20 PM - daniel871: Upper Decker = Poop in toilet tank instead of bowl; Chicago Sunroof = Poop into an open sunroof if you hate someone that drives a car with one and they leave it parked with the sunroof open.
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:21 PM - daniel871: Just don't make Bob Odenkirk's mistake and make sure the person's kids aren't still in the car.
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:23 PM - Mike Glass: thats a load of Hooey
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:24 PM - Bill Monroe: interesting how shit a chicago are so closely associated
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:24 PM - Bill Monroe: makes sense
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:28 PM - daniel871: Chicago, Cleveland, etc.
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:28 PM - Bill Monroe: I spent a week in Cleveland one day
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:29 PM - daniel871:
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:29 PM - toy: wow, running my cyclops at 180mm is way to fast
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:29 PM - daniel871: Nah. Just increase the nozzle temp to keep up with it.
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:29 PM - daniel871:
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:29 PM - toy: it shock the lower heatsink from the heatsink
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:30 PM - toy: basicly unloosened all 4 set screws holding it in place
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:30 PM - daniel871: If it shook, something wasn't balanced/weighted properly.
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:30 PM - Mike Kelly: needs more rigidity in your system
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:30 PM - toy: lol
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:30 PM - daniel871: Or tightened properly, yeah.
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:30 PM - toy: maybe i shoudd tighten the set screwws some more... i didnt want to damage anything
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:31 PM - Mike Kelly: or use loctite
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:31 PM - toy: nervous
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:31 PM - daniel871: Red loctite, but don't get any on the rods.
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:31 PM - toy: it was printing fine at 180 until it decided to come apaprt
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:32 PM - daniel871: (I like the red loctite because it only takes a drop on threads to permanently assemble something)
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:32 PM - Mike Kelly: what print speed
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:32 PM - daniel871: 180 was the print speed.
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:32 PM - toy: 180 on the infills
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:32 PM - Mike Kelly: uh
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:33 PM - Mike Kelly: kinda doubt that
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:33 PM - daniel871: Is this on toy's custom machine?
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:33 PM - toy: yeah
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:33 PM - daniel871: Might have vibrated apart because the motors simply couldn't go that fast and were tearing things apart trying to get there.
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:34 PM - toy: i think it loosened up on the rapid change of directions on the infills
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:34 PM - Mike Kelly: probably the filament pushing the heater block apart because it can't actually print that fast
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:34 PM - toy: maybe
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:34 PM - daniel871: Toy, what kind of hotend is on it?
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:34 PM - toy: cyclops
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:35 PM - toy: im trying to figure out eh easist way to get the filament out with out creating a big mess
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:36 PM - daniel871: What was the filament?
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:36 PM - toy: mike ill make you a video at it running 180
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:36 PM - toy: pla
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:36 PM - toy: year old pla
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:36 PM - Mike Kelly: k i'm sure e3d would be interested in that as well
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:37 PM - daniel871: Probably just let it cool off, take it apart, clean it out and then put it back together.
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:37 PM - daniel871: For a literal "plastic everywhere" mess.
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:38 PM - Mike Glass: take the nozzle off for fastest printing
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:38 PM - toy: mk, u never saw the stream of me running my robo at 140 than
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:38 PM - TechSupportGo: hello
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:39 PM - Mike Glass: TSG, whud up
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:40 PM - Mike Kelly: these valve covers look like tidley winks
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:40 PM - Mike Kelly: nope
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:41 PM - daniel871: Yeah, if it pushed that Cyclops apart then the extrusion was putting way too much pressure on it.
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:41 PM - Mike Kelly: there's a lot of internal resistance in the cyclops
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:41 PM - daniel871: Not sure if heating the nozzle to compensate would help or not though.
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:41 PM - Mike Kelly: which limits its print speed
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:42 PM - Mike Kelly: most people only run it at 30mm/s to prevent under extrusion
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:44 PM - daniel871: Should have designed that interface like a miniature of the v6 heatbreak where the screws go around it to hold it in the extruder. Be a pain to get the PTFE tube right for both of them, but should hold up better to extruding pressure.
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:45 PM - Mike Kelly: not following
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:45 PM - daniel871: Hang on, let me take a couple screenshots.
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:47 PM - toy: http://imgur.com/zZvJDAS
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:48 PM - Mike Kelly: do you not have filament in the idle channel
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:48 PM - toy: no
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:48 PM - Mike Kelly: oh boy
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:48 PM - daniel871: This is crude as hell, but here:
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:49 PM - Mike Kelly: have fun cleaning that out
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:49 PM - daniel871: X2.
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:49 PM - daniel871: But scaled and re-worked so the interface would actually go together.
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:49 PM - Mike Kelly: that would be fine for the cyclops but not the chimera
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:49 PM - toy: i should prime the other chamber.... damn i think i remember reading about that
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:49 PM - daniel871: Thought he was using the Cyclops
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:49 PM - Mike Kelly: he is
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:49 PM - Mike Kelly: but the chimera/cyclops use the same heatsink
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:50 PM - Mike Kelly: and yeah toy, alway run it with a second filament in
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:50 PM - Mike Kelly: preferably something stable at high temp like _XT or nylon
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:50 PM - Mike Kelly: if you're not using the second channel
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:50 PM - toy: i was excited and it slipped my mind
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:50 PM - Mike Kelly: otherwise the filament will flow into it and push through into the cold end of the heat break
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:50 PM - Mike Kelly: solidifying
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:50 PM - toy: sounds painful
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:51 PM - Mike Kelly: might not have happened but it sure could have
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:51 PM - toy: i think it edjected the heat break before it did that and i hit the e-stop
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:51 PM - Mike Kelly: hopefully
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:51 PM - toy: still to hot to touch with no fan cooling
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:52 PM - Mike Kelly: start at 30mm/s then go crazy from there
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:52 PM - Mike Kelly: as i say don't run before you walk otherwise you'll end up flat on your face wondering how the hell you got there
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:53 PM - toy: yeah im gonna back it down before i do some real damage
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:54 PM - Mike Glass: I'd say put it in all the way, and giver all ya got, your not young anymore..lol
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:54 PM - Mike Kelly: just the tip?
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:55 PM - toy: if u get a chance mk, u should try the artic silver thermal compund, better than the generic thermal
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:56 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah i probably should
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:56 PM - Mike Kelly: my heatsink has like a caked on layer of compound from swapping back and forth
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:56 PM - Mike Glass: You put thermal compound on your heatsink?
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:57 PM - Mike Kelly: heat breaks which transfers to the heatsink holes
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:58 PM - Mike Kelly: afk meeting
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:09 PM - toy: all the set screws were really loose, not sure if it was vibration or to much pressure that did it
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:10 PM - Bill Monroe: tighten them when it's hot

 

Jun 2, 2015 at 2:10 PM - Mike Glass: very hot
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:10 PM - Bill Monroe: dont forget the compound
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:11 PM - Bill Monroe: and dont get your hopes up too high
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:11 PM - Mike Glass: compound w especially
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:12 PM - Mike Glass: Isnt yours a paperweight now Bill?
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:12 PM - Bill Monroe: nope.. landfiller
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:12 PM - toy: lol i would have bought it off u
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:12 PM - Bill Monroe: I would not have sold it to you or anyone
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:12 PM - Mike Glass: sounds like extra parts
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:12 PM - toy: i have a big collection of extra parts
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:13 PM - toy: well maybe no big, but diff growing
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:13 PM - Bill Monroe: i would have put it in my scrap bucket but I didnt want the bad karma to taint my metal supply
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:13 PM - toy: i just hope i got the balls pushed all the way through... the set screws "seem" to be as far as they can go
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:16 PM - Bill Monroe: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/bills-lab
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:17 PM - Bill Monroe: head is about to move up too far to see
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:17 PM - toy: what is it?
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:18 PM - Bill Monroe: i only threw awy the heatsink and breaks, the rest I saved, bought a V6 heatsink and break, and proceeded to make awesome prints with never a jam
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:18 PM - Bill Monroe: it's a handle for a press that I designed for work
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:19 PM - Bill Monroe:
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:23 PM - Bill Monroe: S3D said it would be done around 3pm, looks like that might be right on target
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:29 PM - Bill Monroe: looks like it's about to fail
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:32 PM - Mike Glass: doh
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:32 PM - Bill Monroe: ya, nasty
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:32 PM - Mike Glass: what happened
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:33 PM - Bill Monroe: looks like the handle got loose inside the support just enough to allow the nozzle to dig in
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:33 PM - Bill Monroe: too bad, it was almost done
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:33 PM - Mike Kelly: you should print it the other way around
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:34 PM - Bill Monroe: sure, never be able to dig out the support.
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:34 PM - Bill Monroe: the first two printed fine this way
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:34 PM - Mike Kelly: wouldn't need support really
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:34 PM - Mike Kelly: unless there's a reason you can't chamfer or fillet the top of the cutout
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:35 PM - Mike Kelly: though if it's flat it could probably bridge it just fine
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:36 PM - Bill Monroe: maybe
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:36 PM - Bill Monroe: i forgot the machine is a bridging fool now
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:36 PM - Mike Kelly: seems like there's a lot of ways that could be printed w/out support
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:37 PM - Mike Glass: holy hell thats alot of support..lol uses more than the print itself?
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:37 PM - Bill Monroe: about the same I think.. the support isnt all that dense
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:38 PM - Mike Glass: at least is smells good in your robo..
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:38 PM - Bill Monroe: i'll try it theother way.. if the bridge is nasty no one will know anyway
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:38 PM - Bill Monroe: uhhh smells good?
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:38 PM - Mike Glass: your rum and lime
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:39 PM - Bill Monroe: ohya
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:39 PM - Mike Glass: Or did 2.0 sneak it in?
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:39 PM - Mike Kelly: subtle advertising
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:39 PM - Bill Monroe: 2.0 makes soap for sale online.. you should smell my guest house
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:40 PM - Bill Monroe: now she's making shaving cream
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:43 PM - Bill Monroe: i put it in there.
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:43 PM - Mike Glass: is this you bill
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:43 PM - Bill Monroe: heh.. that's her site
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:43 PM - Bill Monroe: not her feet though
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:44 PM - Mike Kelly: looks like a CRT
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:45 PM - Bill Monroe: it does kinda.. cant make it bigger
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:45 PM - Bill Monroe: that pic is like 8-9 years old.. it might be a CRT
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:46 PM - Bill Monroe: that's the ofice we had in Alpine before we got the place in joshua Tree
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:46 PM - Bill Monroe: was that one eBay Mike?
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:50 PM - Bill Monroe: i thought she quit using that pic
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:50 PM - Mike Kelly: http://i.imgur.com/GhjXHS3.jpg
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:51 PM - Bill Monroe: nothing there
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:52 PM - Mike Glass: yep ebay
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:54 PM - Bill Monroe: heh i dont really look at it.. whenever I try to help I get the stink eye
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:55 PM - Mike Kelly: man lasers are like my white whale
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:56 PM - Mike Kelly: mike you should buy this for your multitool: https://sites.google.com/site/dtrlpf/home/diodes/ndb7a75-3-5w-445nm-diodes
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:59 PM - Mike Glass: I have a cheapy that I just need a pot for. but this is what I want next http://jtechphotonics.com/?product=...pliant-driver-kit-with-us-style-power-adapter
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:00 PM - Mike Kelly: come to colorado we have plenty of that
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:00 PM - Mike Kelly: wait...
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:01 PM - Mike Kelly: what did you buy originally?
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:01 PM - Mike Kelly: i thought that was the one you got
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:02 PM - Mike Glass: I just suplused some equipment and bought parts to build the driver but forgot the get the potentiometer
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:03 PM - Mike Glass: Now that Im a store owner, I had to pay 5 months rent, so dug into my toy fund.
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:05 PM - Mike Glass: Although it may turn into a 3d Printer supply and service shop...heh
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:06 PM - Mike Kelly: congrats
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:06 PM - Mike Kelly: gonna make signs full time?
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:09 PM - toy: stay out of my $$$ =)
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:12 PM - Mike Glass: No its mostly for the wife's furniture.
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:13 PM - Mike Glass: I am submiting my beer caddy to a brewery this week see how many orders I get
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:13 PM - Mike Glass: everybody at the office wants a personalized one too.
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:16 PM - Mike Glass: Toy, you make signs?
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:19 PM - Printed Solid: hello
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:19 PM - Mike Kelly: hello
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:20 PM - Mike Glass: yello
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:21 PM - Mike Kelly: FINALLY IMGUR APP HAS UPLOAD
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:22 PM - toy: i did
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:22 PM - Mike Kelly: been too longf
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:22 PM - toy: when i lived in vegas i ran a flow waterjet for a couple of years
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:23 PM - toy: u can never be bored with waterjet btw
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:25 PM - toy: ugh repetier host allows for invert controls for x,y,z but not e1 or e2 =\
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:26 PM - Sims Reaper: ugh, just ruined my print twice in a row
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:29 PM - Sims Reaper: Simplify3D's Machine Control Panel seems to be acting funny. I'm running the prints from the SD card, but the printer stop twice, once I had disconnected, closed MCP, came back later and tried to re-connect... Print stopped and failed.
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:29 PM - Sims Reaper: second time I just tried to close the MCP and the print failed... Lesson learned... Stop touching things.
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:33 PM - Sims Reaper: Btw, has anyone ever had their X-axis mircoswitch move on them, the one on the extruder?
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:34 PM - Mike Kelly: i can move it by hand if that's what you mean
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:34 PM - Mike Kelly: it's kinda on a pivot
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:35 PM - Sims Reaper: ya, but mine seems to have pivoted to much, it didnt make contact this last time. I "helped" it and got the print started alright but maybe too loose?
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:36 PM - Mike Kelly: i think there's a screw you can tighten
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:36 PM - Mike Kelly: mine pretty much just goes back as far as it can
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:36 PM - Sims Reaper: Thats what I figured. I'll snug it up tonight after this print
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:37 PM - Sims Reaper: I got about 3/4 of the way done with the ABS material latches before I had the control panel issue
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:37 PM - Mike Kelly: bummer
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:38 PM - Sims Reaper: so far the ABS looks excellent, I hope it holds through this complete print.
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:38 PM - Printed Solid: holds to the plate?

 

Jun 2, 2015 at 3:38 PM - Sims Reaper: half an enclosure and the heat lamp seem to be doing the trick
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:38 PM - Mike Kelly: heat lamps are great for abs
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:39 PM - Printed Solid: I'm at the time of year where my whole shop becomes a heated enclosure
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:39 PM - Sims Reaper: I am using just hair spray, but it has the vinyl polymer bonding agent, so it is sticking VERY well
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:40 PM - Printed Solid: I wonder if anyone has bought the matter control touch package?
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:40 PM - Sims Reaper: I need to order an LCD for the printer, and move it to the garage. Most of the days during the summer it gets pretty warm in there
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:40 PM - Printed Solid: Yeah. I don't do ABS anymore, but the year that I did, my prints got awesome in the summer
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:41 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah during the summer i never even close my enclosure
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:43 PM - Mike Kelly: ugh smells like bug killer
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:43 PM - Mike Kelly: i wish they'd shut the damn door when they spray that shit
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:44 PM - Mike Kelly: i think that's all the justification i need to go home early
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:45 PM - Printed Solid: yup. I left early all last week because they were working on the AC and I couldn't stand being at my desk
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:04 PM - Mike Kelly: i like how this bag says "reusable"
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:04 PM - Mike Kelly: really bag, are you now
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:04 PM - jbigler1986: Bacj
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:05 PM - jbigler1986: Matt I sent the package today. Kept forgetting
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:07 PM - jbigler1986: If someone buys that package they need a CT scan on their head
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:07 PM - jbigler1986: Might as well give me the money bc it will probably work just as well as not having it at all
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:24 PM - Mike Kelly: what did you send
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:24 PM - Printed Solid: thanks JB
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:25 PM - Printed Solid: he took some pics of parts for me.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:26 PM - Printed Solid: although I have no idea what his second two comments are about.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:26 PM - Mike Kelly: have we gotten any feedback yet?
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:26 PM - Printed Solid: feedback?
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:26 PM - Mike Kelly: on the prototype
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:26 PM - Printed Solid: Oh. no. that's not how that customer works. We won't hear anything.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:26 PM - Printed Solid: until they place another order.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:27 PM - Mike Kelly: oh i see
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:27 PM - Printed Solid: Yeah. usually right around the time when I start wondering what is going on.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:27 PM - Printed Solid: so, maybe a few months.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:27 PM - Mike Kelly: haha
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:27 PM - Printed Solid: The thing ended up looking awesome.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:28 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah it did
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:28 PM - Printed Solid: In retrospect, I probably would do those big pieces in wood for easier finishing.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:28 PM - Printed Solid: and not leave them outside.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:28 PM - Mike Kelly: haha
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:28 PM - Mike Kelly: also good
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:29 PM - Printed Solid: That would actually look seriously awesome though. Just stained wood.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:29 PM - Printed Solid: the nickeling on the top surface looks like wood grain anyways
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:29 PM - Mike Kelly: i just wanna see the infomercial of someone using that thing
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:29 PM - Printed Solid: lol
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:30 PM - Printed Solid: agreed
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:30 PM - Mike Kelly: my friend just put this status up "Just saw a dude t-bone a cop car going through a red light with his siren on. Sucks to be that guy."
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:30 PM - Printed Solid: ouch
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:31 PM - Mike Kelly: right?
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:31 PM - Mike Kelly: bad day right there
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:31 PM - Printed Solid: pretty much. Although I think that happens fairly often, especially with the second cop car
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:32 PM - Printed Solid: someone posted a make of one of my designs today. Always nice. Doesn't happen often: http://www.thingiverse.com/make:140806
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:33 PM - Printed Solid: this falls into the category of 'the only things I design that anyone is interested in are my wife's ideas'
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:33 PM - Mike Kelly: i had to read the description to figure out what it was
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:33 PM - Mike Kelly: haha
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:33 PM - Mike Kelly: your wife seems to have good ones
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:33 PM - Printed Solid: yup.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:34 PM - Printed Solid: she has now learned morphi on the ipad so will probably be doing more designs. I will let you guys teach her how to use the printer.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:34 PM - Printed Solid: I'm a patient teacher normally, but she gets mad at me pretty quickly.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:34 PM - jbigler1986: Last 2 comments were referring to matter touch
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:34 PM - Printed Solid: ah. OK
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:35 PM - Printed Solid: that makes sense.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:35 PM - Mike Kelly: does it?
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:35 PM - Printed Solid: jb finally have time to get your pics up. Just in time to do a website overhaul!
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:35 PM - Mike Kelly: when was matter touch brought up
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:35 PM - Printed Solid: quite a ways back. I asked if anyone had tried it.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:35 PM - Mike Kelly: hey i know that feeling printed
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:35 PM - Mike Kelly: my wife refuses to let me teach her things
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:35 PM - Printed Solid: I don't think I've seen it mentioned in a single post on this forum.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:36 PM - Mike Kelly: i'd only buy it if it let me run cura or repetier host
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:36 PM - jbigler1986: 55 minutes ago - Printed Solid: I wonder if anyone has bought the matter control touch package?
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:36 PM - Printed Solid: yeah, what we are planning is to have my wife sit in on one of my classes. She wants to run the printer, but one on one...
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:36 PM - Mike Kelly: matt you got 23 minutes to give me feedback on my robo video?
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:36 PM - Printed Solid: we've been married long enough to have a pretty good idea of how to stay married
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:37 PM - Mike Kelly: for sure
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:37 PM - Printed Solid: um... 23 minutes?
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:37 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah it's pretty long...
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:37 PM - Printed Solid: of watching a video?
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:37 PM - Mike Kelly: i totally get if you don't
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:37 PM - Mike Kelly: i barely want to watch it
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:37 PM - Printed Solid: haha. yeah, sorry. I can review the transcript
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:37 PM - jbigler1986: I didn't finish it yet Mike. Wife switched it to breaking bad
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:37 PM - Printed Solid: that's why I do written blog posts. don't have the patience to sit through a video.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:37 PM - Printed Solid: what is it about?
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:38 PM - Mike Kelly: just basic troubleshooting stuff
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:38 PM - Mike Kelly: things i've had to type out like a dozen times
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:38 PM - Printed Solid: oh, JB, did I tell you I'm signing up as a simplify3D reseller?
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:38 PM - Printed Solid: If you send me the link, I'll try to watch it. maybe at work.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:39 PM - Mike Kelly: k
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:39 PM - jbigler1986: You did not. That's awesome though.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:39 PM - jbigler1986: I love s3d for 95 percent of parts
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:39 PM - jbigler1986: There are a few that it doesn't like
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:40 PM - jbigler1986: Is this a new thing for them?
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:42 PM - Printed Solid: I think they have other resellers. I'm going to be offering bundle packs.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:42 PM - Mike Kelly: bundle with what?
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:42 PM - Printed Solid: As soon as we move the website over to a new platform, I'm going to have a Robo starter pack with XXL, E3D, and simplify
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:43 PM - Mike Kelly: genius
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:43 PM - Printed Solid: the current shop doesn't have a good method for managing inventory on bundles
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:45 PM - jbigler1986: Question for you guys
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:46 PM - Printed Solid: sure
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:46 PM - Mike Kelly: 42
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:47 PM - jbigler1986: Is there an easy way to measure lettering so I can print letters and glue them on cut out letters
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:47 PM - Mike Kelly: uh
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:47 PM - jbigler1986: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:308335

 

Jun 2, 2015 at 4:47 PM - Printed Solid: you need to get the font and all that stuff right.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:47 PM - Mike Kelly: well you could measure the letter height
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:47 PM - Mike Kelly: but fonts are weird
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:48 PM - Printed Solid: oh, yeah, for that, just boolean it from a block or something.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:48 PM - jbigler1986: I want to print letters in the same material as I printed the skull and glue or snap them into the existing letters. If possible. If not not a huge deal
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:50 PM - jbigler1986: If not I can just paint the inside of the letters so they stand out
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:51 PM - Printed Solid: Do you know how to boolean it?
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:51 PM - jbigler1986: I do not
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:52 PM - Printed Solid: I think you can do it in any of the programs that let you work with STLs directly.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:52 PM - Printed Solid: I'd do it in netfabb (the full version)
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:52 PM - Printed Solid: want me to just do it for you?
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:52 PM - jbigler1986: If you don't in that would be awesome
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:52 PM - jbigler1986: Don't kind*
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:53 PM - jbigler1986: Fuck. Mind*
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:53 PM - Printed Solid: yeah, hold on a minute
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:54 PM - daniel871: Hey, is that Sue Tyrannosaur in the thingiverse lesson plan the same one that cameos in The Dresden Files?
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:57 PM - Mike Kelly: i love beiung able to start a print from inside
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:59 PM - Printed Solid: well... I did it for you JB, but then it occurred to me that someone else probably already had!
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:59 PM - Printed Solid: never mind. different font. I'm emailing the file over to you now.
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:01 PM - jbigler1986: Thanks a bunch
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:02 PM - Printed Solid: np
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:02 PM - jbigler1986: Want to print the whole skeleton. 14.99 though. Didn't look to see if there are any free versions of it
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:03 PM - Printed Solid: you can't.
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:03 PM - Printed Solid: it's an x3g file.
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:03 PM - Printed Solid: Mike could print it for you.
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:03 PM - Printed Solid: you need a makerbot.
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:03 PM - jbigler1986: Never
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:03 PM - Printed Solid: nice isn't it.
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:04 PM - Printed Solid: I mean you need a makerbot to be able to print parts you buy from them.
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:04 PM - Printed Solid: they don't send stl
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:04 PM - jbigler1986: Gotcha
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:04 PM - jbigler1986: I'm sure someone modeled one out there. Just haven't looked yet
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:06 PM - Printed Solid: yeah. maybe check pinshape or something.
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:06 PM - Printed Solid: I would think if someone went through that much effort they would probably charge a few $ for it.
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:07 PM - Mike Kelly: can't makerbot clones print x3g?
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:10 PM - Printed Solid: yeah, but it is specific to the bot. So, it may screw it up.
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:10 PM - Printed Solid: set makerware to a replicator 1 and try running the code on your printer sometime.
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:11 PM - Printed Solid: it will run, but will flash error messages the whole print so you have no idea what is happening.
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:11 PM - Printed Solid: really obnoxious
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:13 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah they're pretty much crap
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:13 PM - Mike Kelly: wish someone else was offering a dual extrusion when i bought it
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:15 PM - Mike Kelly: granted i don't have many complaints about it
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:19 PM - Mike Kelly: omg why does my mouse keep cutting out
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:11 PM - jbigler1986: S3d says 1 minute on the letters. Lol
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:16 PM - Bill Monroe: back
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:22 PM - Stephen Capistron: You print a case for your arduino a little while back?
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:23 PM - Bill Monroe: not really a case per se.. a little mounting rack
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:23 PM - Stephen Capistron: ah
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:24 PM - Bill Monroe: hang on, I'll get a pic if youd like to see it
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:25 PM - Stephen Capistron: i don't like having the arduino and power supply under the printer. makes it a pain in the neck to do anything with those two parts
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:28 PM - Bill Monroe: ah, you'd need something big enough for the ramps too
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:28 PM - Bill Monroe: this is just the mega board
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:28 PM - Bill Monroe:
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:29 PM - Bill Monroe: this is one for the mega plus an LCD.. but I dont like it yet
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:30 PM - Stephen Capistron: it'll get there
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:42 PM - Bill Monroe: yup.. but right now I just need something to prototype an idea so, a little hot glue and it'll be ok
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:47 PM - jbigler1986: Printed the letters. Took a minute and a half. Lol
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:52 PM - Bill Monroe: took the front panel out of the prodigy plus today.. has 3 4-line LCD displays that will work with arduino magnificently
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:53 PM - Mike Glass: what lcd is that, a kit?
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:53 PM - Bill Monroe: no, i liberated them from the stratasys that I'm tearing down
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:54 PM - Mike Glass: still had the plastic on it?
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:54 PM - Bill Monroe: no, they were behind a window.... not a speck of dust on them
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:56 PM - jbigler1986: Grabs the microscope
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:56 PM - Bill Monroe: they're using the same discreet pinouts as all the popular displays
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:56 PM - Mike Glass: jb you got pics of the letters you printing
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:57 PM - Mike Glass: I got one in my kit looks just like it
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:57 PM - jbigler1986: Yeah 1 sec
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:58 PM - Bill Monroe: the one in the pica above is new, an I2C version but I discovered the wire.h file might interefer with my project so I'll probably remake the rack to hold this monster 4 X 20 unit and do the wiring
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:59 PM - jbigler1986:
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:00 PM - Mike Glass: those are tiney
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:01 PM - jbigler1986: That they are
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:01 PM - Bill Monroe: why?
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:02 PM - Mike Glass: you should of printed them on tape then you could glue them on perfectly straight
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:04 PM - jbigler1986: Well they sit into the lettering on the base a bit
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:06 PM - jbigler1986: May have to go with paint
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:09 PM - Mike Glass: aw gotcha
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:10 PM - jbigler1986: Just to small. Would be nice to cut the little plaque part and print it separate I'm a different color
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:12 PM - Mike Glass: how did t-rex print out, and what size did you do
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:13 PM - jbigler1986: i didn't scale it. one sec on the pic
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:14 PM - jbigler1986:
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:15 PM - jbigler1986: i took a lighter to the teeth to turn them a little black. like they are kinda rotted
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:17 PM - Mike Glass: I did this back in Feb.
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:17 PM - daniel871: Well, so far I'm liking the volcano.
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:18 PM - daniel871: Tglase 1.2 vase test tomorrow evening after work.
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:19 PM - Mike Glass: I used a butane torch heat to get rid of the stringing, I had to turn of retraction on the top skull or it would fail.
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:19 PM - jbigler1986: what did you print with it
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:20 PM - Mike Glass: JustPLA
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:20 PM - jbigler1986: yeah i just printed it with the normal settings i use
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:21 PM - Mike Glass: I did use support and raft though
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:23 PM - jbigler1986: i didn't use either
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:28 PM - Mike Glass: now I need to figure out what my next project is, just finishing my iron man arc reactor.
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:28 PM - jbigler1986: ?
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:30 PM - Mike Glass: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:13171
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:31 PM - Mike Glass: started it like months ago just printed the last parts last night
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:36 PM - jbigler1986: can i make a 45 degree cut in netfabb
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:38 PM - Mike Glass: I believe so
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:38 PM - Bill Monroe: make this MIke : https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:695975
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:41 PM - Mike Glass: hah that is cool, not really in to stargate but need idea, I dont have a spare mega right now.
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:42 PM - Bill Monroe: my son will probably want to make it when he gets here.. he's a HUGE stargate guy
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:44 PM - Mike Glass: I want to do some kind of robot
