Jul 9, 2015 12:02 PM - daniel871: jet-surf.com?
Jul 9, 2015 12:03 PM - daniel871: Not a guess, just saw it before and know what it is.
Jul 9, 2015 12:03 PM - Mike Kelly: http://lampuga.de/#products alt
Jul 9, 2015 12:04 PM - daniel871: Wiping out at 34mph would hurt.
Jul 9, 2015 12:05 PM - daniel871: Somewhere out there is a video of someone coming in to a dock too fast on one of those and losing their legs.
Jul 9, 2015 12:06 PM - Mike Kelly: holy shit
Jul 9, 2015 12:06 PM - Mike Kelly: nevermind!
Jul 9, 2015 12:07 PM - daniel871: Is Braydon Moreno the same guy from Robo you guys mention every now and then? I got a USPS tracking info notice saying they sent me something, but no info on what it is.
Jul 9, 2015 12:08 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Yes...probably...
Jul 9, 2015 12:12 PM - Mike Kelly: yes same guy
Jul 9, 2015 12:14 PM - daniel871: Hm.
Jul 9, 2015 12:15 PM - daniel871: Google says he's the CEO. Should I get my hopes up at all or is it probably the stepper motor finally shipping?
Jul 9, 2015 12:15 PM - Aaron Mitchell: He just shipped me a replacement bracket....
Jul 9, 2015 12:15 PM - daniel871: (and his name is just attached to the shipping account)
Jul 9, 2015 12:15 PM - Aaron Mitchell: So...depends what your hopes are....
Jul 9, 2015 12:16 PM - daniel871: A replacement power supply unit that died last night.
Jul 9, 2015 12:16 PM - daniel871: The stepper died three weeks back and I ended up getting one off Amazon to get running again.
Jul 9, 2015 12:16 PM - Aaron Mitchell: You could always email him or contact support and ask...
Jul 9, 2015 12:18 PM - Mike Kelly: ^
Jul 9, 2015 12:18 PM - daniel871: Already did, but response times on emails can be measured in days so I figured I'd ask here.
Jul 9, 2015 12:19 PM - Mike Glass: days, you got a response that fast?
Jul 9, 2015 12:19 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Heh...
Jul 9, 2015 12:19 PM - Aaron Mitchell: There is an 800 number you could call...
Jul 9, 2015 12:19 PM - daniel871: I know I won't find out what it is until it gets here, but it's just weird to get an email from the USPS instead of an actual reply from support telling me they were shipping something to me.
Jul 9, 2015 12:20 PM - Mike Glass: and a 900 number
Jul 9, 2015 12:20 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Who answers the 900 number? Heh.
Jul 9, 2015 12:20 PM - Mike Kelly: the 800 number is a call center, they don't know anything beyond basic troubleshooting
Jul 9, 2015 12:20 PM - Mike Glass: yea thats the way it works daniel, kinda strange
Jul 9, 2015 12:23 PM - Mike Kelly: if jerry wasn't in china i could probably find out
Jul 9, 2015 12:25 PM - Mike Kelly: daniel if you pm me your last name i can try messaging brian
Jul 9, 2015 12:28 PM - Mike Glass:
Jul 9, 2015 12:31 PM - daniel871: Ok. An email came in with specs on the fuse if its blown and where to look for it (fuse and or psu can be had after checking to see if fuse is blown or not to determine whether the psu or just the fuse needs replacing).
Jul 9, 2015 12:32 PM - daniel871: So the shipment is the stepper.
Jul 9, 2015 12:32 PM - Mike Glass: with your power issues, it could be
Jul 9, 2015 12:35 PM - daniel871: I've been on this for the last three months.http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000FBK3QK
Jul 9, 2015 12:36 PM - daniel871: Power shouldn't be an issue on the incoming end.
Jul 9, 2015 12:39 PM - Mike Glass: unplug it and see if your robo still runs
Jul 9, 2015 12:43 PM - jbigler1986: his robo doesn't run at all
Jul 9, 2015 12:51 PM - daniel871: Flipping the switch when plugged in is just flipping the switch.
Jul 9, 2015 12:51 PM - Mike Kelly: jumper the fuse and see if it turns on
Jul 9, 2015 12:52 PM - daniel871: The LCD screen comes on and the usual stuff you can do on just the USB power still works.
Jul 9, 2015 12:52 PM - daniel871: It's the main switch, so since I know for certain where to look for the fuse I'm hoping it's just that.
Jul 9, 2015 12:52 PM - jbigler1986: that's bc they are powered via usb
Jul 9, 2015 12:53 PM - daniel871: I usually don't have the USB plugged in at all.
Jul 9, 2015 12:53 PM - daniel871: Only plugged it in recently to update firmware.
Jul 9, 2015 12:53 PM - daniel871: Back when everything was working, I printed purely from the SD card on the LCD controller.
Jul 9, 2015 12:53 PM - Mike Kelly: c'mon you're an engineer, this should be easy to solve
Jul 9, 2015 12:54 PM - daniel871: Purely mechanical design in a very specialized field. No electronics.
Jul 9, 2015 12:54 PM - daniel871:
Jul 9, 2015 12:54 PM - Mike Kelly: lol bollocks
Jul 9, 2015 12:55 PM - Mike Kelly: mechatronics my good man
Jul 9, 2015 12:55 PM - daniel871: A 5x20 5a fuse seems kind of weak.
Jul 9, 2015 12:55 PM - daniel871: According to Brian, that's what goes in there.
Jul 9, 2015 12:56 PM - Mike Kelly: that's 600VA
Jul 9, 2015 12:56 PM - Mike Kelly: plenty for a 360W psu
Jul 9, 2015 12:57 PM - daniel871: That other PSU you linked me to on Amazon earlier today takes 10a fuses for the same wattage.
Jul 9, 2015 12:58 PM - Mike Kelly: wasn't me
Jul 9, 2015 1:00 PM - jbigler1986: can't you use a pc power supply?
Jul 9, 2015 1:00 PM - Mike Kelly: if it has a high enough amperage sure
Jul 9, 2015 1:00 PM - jbigler1986: 500w psu should do the trick
Jul 9, 2015 1:00 PM - jbigler1986: easy to get and cheap
Jul 9, 2015 1:00 PM - Mike Kelly: just gotta make sure it's got at minimum 16A on 12v
Jul 9, 2015 1:01 PM - daniel871: Whoever linked me to this then. http://www.amazon.com/Universal-Reg...p_p_img_5?ie=UTF8&refRID=1PTE0QCEQ54QSBE21KYF
Jul 9, 2015 1:02 PM - Mike Glass: It will work fine
Jul 9, 2015 1:02 PM - Mike Glass: same on in my cnc
Jul 9, 2015 1:02 PM - Mike Kelly: you mean because of the frequently bought?
Jul 9, 2015 1:03 PM - Mike Kelly: i pull something like 500W through my 24vpsu
Jul 9, 2015 1:03 PM - Mike Kelly: haven't blown a fuse
Jul 9, 2015 1:03 PM - Mike Glass: 1.2 jigawats on mine
Jul 9, 2015 1:04 PM - daniel871: Eh. I'll look at it when I get home from work.
Jul 9, 2015 1:04 PM - Mike Kelly: do you think our package carriers will ever go back to a 6 day shipping period what with all the online shopping
Jul 9, 2015 1:04 PM - daniel871: And post pics in my printer thread if there is anything worth looking at.
Jul 9, 2015 1:04 PM - jbigler1986: usps is 7 days a week
Jul 9, 2015 1:04 PM - daniel871: The USPS has never left that shipping period.
Jul 9, 2015 1:04 PM - Mike Kelly: that's why i didn't say postal
Jul 9, 2015 1:05 PM - daniel871: And UPS isn't too much better.
Jul 9, 2015 1:05 PM - jbigler1986: the others have saturday delivery options
Jul 9, 2015 1:05 PM - daniel871: Can't even count how many damaged deliveries I've had thru UPS
Jul 9, 2015 1:05 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah but i mean for the same price
Jul 9, 2015 1:05 PM - jbigler1986: just gotta pay extra

 

Jul 9, 2015 1:05 PM - jbigler1986: oh. doubt it
Jul 9, 2015 1:05 PM - Mike Kelly: i wish we could get sunday deliveries like the UK
Jul 9, 2015 1:05 PM - Mike Kelly: besides usps that is
Jul 9, 2015 1:05 PM - jbigler1986: maybe once they realize they are losing money
Jul 9, 2015 1:06 PM - daniel871: Amazon Prime is the best thing ever for the majority of things I buy. Don't care about shipping costs any more.

Jul 9, 2015 1:22 PM - daniel871: Figured I'd just us a wifi webcam for that and have it set up separate from the raspberry pi.
Jul 9, 2015 1:23 PM - daniel871: Cost of the raspberry pi camera kits is about the same as a wifi camera anyway.
Jul 9, 2015 1:23 PM - jbigler1986: i really did not like octopi
Jul 9, 2015 1:23 PM - jbigler1986: or octoprint. whatever you want to call it
Jul 9, 2015 1:24 PM - Mike Glass: what the hell, did I miss something.
Jul 9, 2015 1:24 PM - Mike Kelly:
Jul 9, 2015 1:24 PM - Mike Kelly: i said the wrong date at first
Jul 9, 2015 1:25 PM - Mike Glass: oh, maybe should of wait till then on all the filament I bought..lol
Jul 9, 2015 1:25 PM - Mike Kelly: eh
Jul 9, 2015 1:25 PM - daniel871:
Jul 9, 2015 1:25 PM - Mike Kelly: i don't see that going much more on sale
Jul 9, 2015 1:25 PM - Mike Kelly: 9.99 for a kg of filament is a steal
Jul 9, 2015 1:25 PM - daniel871: You'll be feeling differently if Taulman 910 goes on ridiculous prime sale or something.
Jul 9, 2015 1:26 PM - Mike Kelly: taulman filaments are contractually set
Jul 9, 2015 1:26 PM - Mike Kelly: if you go too low you lose the contract
Jul 9, 2015 1:26 PM - Mike Glass: $20 for bridge right now
Jul 9, 2015 1:26 PM - daniel871: Didn't stop someone from putting BluPrint up for $23 a spool for a 2-pack the other day.
Jul 9, 2015 1:27 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah that confused printed solid
Jul 9, 2015 1:27 PM - daniel871: Probably someone that bought several spools, didn't like it for whatever reason and is trying to recoup costs with their Amazon seller account.
Jul 9, 2015 1:28 PM - Mike Kelly: or left over inventory
Jul 9, 2015 1:28 PM - Mike Kelly: either way i wouldn't expect much filament to go on sale
Jul 9, 2015 1:28 PM - Mike Kelly: or at least i hope not
Jul 9, 2015 1:28 PM - daniel871: Yeah, aren't we coming up on the end of a financial quarter soon?
Jul 9, 2015 1:29 PM - Mike Glass: how many rolls of yellow did you buy MK
Jul 9, 2015 1:29 PM - Mike Kelly: just 1
Jul 9, 2015 1:29 PM - Mike Glass: Not 8
Jul 9, 2015 1:29 PM - Mike Glass: lol
Jul 9, 2015 1:29 PM - Mike Glass: what other colors
Jul 9, 2015 1:30 PM - Mike Kelly: cinnamon red, red, orange, translucent orange, yellow, blue, translucent black, and black ABS
Jul 9, 2015 1:32 PM - daniel871: smoke
Jul 9, 2015 1:32 PM - daniel871: Smoke, Cinnamon Red, Grass Green.
Jul 9, 2015 1:32 PM - Mike Glass: wish navy blue was in stock
Jul 9, 2015 1:33 PM - Mike Kelly: they had a midnight blue but i didn't care for the color
Jul 9, 2015 1:33 PM - daniel871: So check the fuse, hope that's the problem and then replace the fuse when the ones from Amazon come in tomorrow.
Jul 9, 2015 1:33 PM - Mike Kelly: good plan
Jul 9, 2015 1:34 PM - daniel871: Then get the Robo working again, print something successfully and then try the Zebra plate the folks at Printinz sent me to make up for the regular plate failing.
Jul 9, 2015 1:34 PM - jbigler1986: i got the turqoise
Jul 9, 2015 1:36 PM - jbigler1986: red-orange and gunmetal grey
Jul 9, 2015 1:37 PM - Mike Kelly: i wish their gold was in stock
Jul 9, 2015 1:37 PM - Mike Glass: another one that stole my gunmetal
Jul 9, 2015 1:38 PM - jbigler1986: yeah i wanted gold as well
Jul 9, 2015 1:42 PM - jbigler1986: the translucent black isn't that great
Jul 9, 2015 1:42 PM - jbigler1986: color wise that is
Jul 9, 2015 1:43 PM - jbigler1986: i want to try hatchbox translucent black
Jul 9, 2015 1:43 PM - daniel871: I wish politics weren't verboten. Jeb Bush said something incredibly stupid and is getting a head start on torpedoing his campaign.
Jul 9, 2015 1:44 PM - Mike Kelly: it's just a slippery slope we don't need to try and climb
Jul 9, 2015 1:44 PM - jbigler1986: I actually like that Trump is speaking his mind
Jul 9, 2015 1:45 PM - daniel871: I'm enjoying all of the "So basically fuck all of the salaried employees in the country" responses to it I'm seeing on other sites.
Jul 9, 2015 1:45 PM - daniel871: Trump is the last person anyone should be listening to. Man can't even run a company longer than three years without filing bankruptcy.
Jul 9, 2015 1:45 PM - jbigler1986: i agree on that
Jul 9, 2015 1:46 PM - Mike Kelly: he also suffers from a pretty serious case of foot in mouth disease
Jul 9, 2015 1:47 PM - daniel871: It's hard to see "speaking his mind" as a good thing when everything he says just gives you a reason to vote for someone else.
Jul 9, 2015 1:48 PM - jbigler1986: at least he isn't afraid to say how he feels about illegal immigrants is all i'm saying
Jul 9, 2015 1:49 PM - daniel871: The illegal immigrants thing is meaningless either way though. It's like saying you support the 2nd amendment in Southern states. Everyone agrees with it and it is a waste of time.
Jul 9, 2015 1:49 PM - daniel871: The main difference there though is that the word "illegal" was added later for clarification because he didn't say it the first time.
Jul 9, 2015 1:50 PM - Mike Kelly: seems more of a diversion tactic than an actual issue imo
Jul 9, 2015 1:50 PM - jbigler1986: illegal immigrants are an issue
Jul 9, 2015 1:51 PM - daniel871: If we ever successfully put a stop to illegal immigration the agricultural industry would cease to exist.
Jul 9, 2015 1:51 PM - Mike Kelly: eh compared to white collar crimes going unpunished who cares
Jul 9, 2015 1:51 PM - daniel871: Because of the whole modern day migrant worker enslavement thing.
Jul 9, 2015 1:51 PM - Mike Glass: Time to move out anyways, country is fucked
Jul 9, 2015 1:52 PM - daniel871: Can't do that short of a six digit annual income and college degree anyway though.
Jul 9, 2015 1:52 PM - jbigler1986: oh it's not as big of an issue as others. just saying it is a big issue
Jul 9, 2015 1:52 PM - Mike Kelly: eh

 

Jul 9, 2015 1:52 PM - daniel871: At least, not to countries that are worth going to where you will actually be better off.
Jul 9, 2015 1:52 PM - Mike Glass: Huge issue that why healthcare is so high
Jul 9, 2015 1:52 PM - Mike Kelly: it's an easy issue to point at but in terms of damage i think there are far greater issues to deal with
Jul 9, 2015 1:52 PM - Mike Glass: we are paying for anyone that comes into this country
Jul 9, 2015 1:52 PM - Mike Kelly: Germany
Jul 9, 2015 1:53 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah you know where else that happens? every other country in the world with socialized medicine
Jul 9, 2015 1:53 PM - daniel871: Also, we pay for people that aren't even in this country so I don't really care to hear complaints about that.
Jul 9, 2015 1:53 PM - Mike Glass: If you knew the actual amount that come into this country a day, you would effin die
Jul 9, 2015 1:54 PM - daniel871: Look, we live in a country where 400,000 people die every year because they're too fat. We can stand to import starving immigrants.
Jul 9, 2015 1:54 PM - Mike Kelly: ^
Jul 9, 2015 1:54 PM - Mike Kelly: who else is gonna keep making our big macs and fries
Jul 9, 2015 1:54 PM - jbigler1986: would you like to be replaced by an illegal or your kids?
Jul 9, 2015 1:54 PM - daniel871: Can't have kids, so I'd rather someone come in.
Jul 9, 2015 1:55 PM - Mike Glass: that lame
Jul 9, 2015 1:55 PM - daniel871: Plus I figure the hassle of actually getting here would make them appreciate things a little more.
Jul 9, 2015 1:55 PM - jbigler1986: not the case
Jul 9, 2015 1:55 PM - Mike Kelly: i think we need to make it easier to become a legal immigrant imo
Jul 9, 2015 1:55 PM - daniel871: It's the 2nd generation after the immigrants that act entitled.
Jul 9, 2015 1:55 PM - Mike Glass: like raping , stealing, killing, sounds great
Jul 9, 2015 1:55 PM - jbigler1986: lots are very humble and great workers. lots are not
Jul 9, 2015 1:56 PM - daniel871: Again, they are no different from the people already living here.
Jul 9, 2015 1:56 PM - Mike Kelly: we're really committed on climbing that slippery slope today aren't we?
Jul 9, 2015 1:56 PM - Mike Glass: Then you my son have wool pulled over your eyes.
Jul 9, 2015 1:56 PM - daniel871: 2 out of every 3 women in this country is sexually assaulted at some point in their life, and usually by a relative or someone they know not some random illegal immigrant.
Jul 9, 2015 1:57 PM - Mike Kelly: them illegals and their marihuana raping our women and stealing our jobs - Signed, the 1920's
Jul 9, 2015 1:57 PM - daniel871: (and called a liar if they report it without eyewitness accounts and video evidence)
Jul 9, 2015 1:57 PM - Mike Glass: keep digging
Jul 9, 2015 1:58 PM - daniel871: Remember when it was black people doing all the raping and killing instead of illegal immigrants?
Jul 9, 2015 1:59 PM - daniel871: Though I guess that rhetoric shifts when groups like the NRA start taking endorsements from Louis Farrakhan in order to fight gun control.
Jul 9, 2015 2:00 PM - daniel871: (things have been swinging back toward that in the last few years though)
Jul 9, 2015 2:01 PM - Mike Kelly: those damn irish coming over on their potato boats stealing our jobs and getting drunk and beating women - signed 1850's
Jul 9, 2015 2:02 PM - Mike Kelly: same story, different generation
Jul 9, 2015 2:11 PM - daniel871: Thats why its basically meaningless.
Jul 9, 2015 2:12 PM - Mike Kelly: diversionary tactic
Jul 9, 2015 2:22 PM - Mike Kelly: anyone into trains? https://www.youmagine.com/designs/openrailway-emd-sw1500-1-32-locomotive
Jul 9, 2015 2:22 PM - daniel871: Thats what she asked.
Jul 9, 2015 2:32 PM - jbigler1986: Home sweet home. Almost time to see if this extruder works
Jul 9, 2015 2:33 PM - jbigler1986: The New York Times reports that about 4.5 million illegal aliens in the U.S. drive on a regular basis, many without licenses or insurance, or even the ability to read road signs written in English
Jul 9, 2015 2:34 PM - jbigler1986: Now im done on that note
Jul 9, 2015 2:34 PM - jbigler1986: MK. Hercustruder?
Jul 9, 2015 2:35 PM - Mike Kelly: still working on cleaning up my vault cache...
Jul 9, 2015 2:35 PM - Mike Kelly: been doing it all day
Jul 9, 2015 2:35 PM - Mike Kelly: almost done though
Jul 9, 2015 2:36 PM - jbigler1986: Holy crap. Didnt you do that yesterday too?
Jul 9, 2015 2:36 PM - Mike Kelly: started to yes
Jul 9, 2015 2:36 PM - Mike Kelly: checking in each file takes around 1-2 minutes of delay time
Jul 9, 2015 2:37 PM - Mike Kelly: had something like 4.7 gigs of files on here
Jul 9, 2015 2:44 PM - daniel871: Whats the math on one in every ten eligible citizens driving without a valid license compared to 685 out of every 1000 people in the usa driving regularly?
Jul 9, 2015 2:46 PM - daniel871: 300 million divided by 1000, time 6.85 for a total number of unlicensed citizens?
Jul 9, 2015 2:46 PM - daniel871: Or 68.5
Jul 9, 2015 2:48 PM - Mike Kelly: and of those how many of them would 3d print a car?
Jul 9, 2015 2:51 PM - daniel871: Zero. Too fat and lazy to load the filament.
Jul 9, 2015 2:54 PM - jbigler1986: Any percentage of illegal immigrants doing anything besides contributing good things to society it to high
Jul 9, 2015 2:55 PM - jbigler1986: Anyways. Cleaning up this stringy ass extruder
Jul 9, 2015 3:07 PM - daniel871: Got a propane torch to burn the hairs off with?
Jul 9, 2015 3:09 PM - daniel871: We have this neat one at work with a foot long oval shape to it that we use to rapidly burn off/burnish the surfaces on uhmw parts after machining them.
Jul 9, 2015 3:16 PM - jbigler1986: just used a lighter
Jul 9, 2015 3:18 PM - Stephen Capistron: A looftlighter would make quick work of them
Jul 9, 2015 3:18 PM - jbigler1986: grill lighter
Jul 9, 2015 3:19 PM - Stephen Capistron:
Jul 9, 2015 3:19 PM - Stephen Capistron: http://www.amazon.com/Looftlighter-70018-Fire-Lighting-Tool/dp/B000WYY65Y
Jul 9, 2015 3:20 PM - Stephen Capistron: Pretty much an electric blow torch
Jul 9, 2015 3:26 PM - Mike Kelly: https://blog.adafruit.com/2015/07/08/skirt-with-interior-glow-lighting-wearablewednesday/ that is one boney girl
Jul 9, 2015 3:27 PM - Mike Kelly: also i totally had this idea: http://www.gizmag.com/hadrian-brick-laying-robot-fastbrick/38239/
Jul 9, 2015 3:34 PM - Stephen Capistron: Some type of adhesive would be much easier to manage vs mortar
Jul 9, 2015 3:35 PM - Mike Kelly: is mortar really that bad? kinda abrasive
Jul 9, 2015 3:36 PM - Stephen Capistron: Right , pumping it is the problem
Jul 9, 2015 3:36 PM - Stephen Capistron: It just wears all the internal components from the pump right out to the nozzle
Jul 9, 2015 3:37 PM - Mike Kelly: augers no good?
Jul 9, 2015 3:37 PM - daniel871: Ok. Fuse confirmed blown.
Jul 9, 2015 3:38 PM - Mike Kelly: alright who had 20 on fuse blown?
Jul 9, 2015 3:38 PM - daniel871: Now to figure out why it would blow.
Jul 9, 2015 3:39 PM - Stephen Capistron: Still wears down. You should check out a progressing cavity pump. They are pretty neat
Jul 9, 2015 3:39 PM - Stephen Capistron: A short somewhere
Jul 9, 2015 3:39 PM - Mike Kelly: that is neat
Jul 9, 2015 3:41 PM - Stephen Capistron: At one point I was looking into pumping essentially a mixture of gelatin and aggregate
Jul 9, 2015 3:50 PM - jbigler1986: gotta file this bitch a little right quick
Jul 9, 2015 5:02 PM - donhuevo: I think I found my new profile pic... while looking for this...
Jul 9, 2015 5:03 PM - jbigler1986:
Jul 9, 2015 5:05 PM - donhuevo: a tiny bit crooked... how does she feed?
Jul 9, 2015 5:06 PM - jbigler1986: Not sure yet. Great and smooth to the hotend. Havent started a print yet
Jul 9, 2015 5:06 PM - donhuevo: is that zero pressure?
Jul 9, 2015 5:10 PM - jbigler1986: thats some
Jul 9, 2015 5:11 PM - donhuevo: no point in messing with it unless you need to. hurry up and print something
Jul 9, 2015 5:12 PM - jbigler1986: I like that i actually have room to make it tighter
Jul 9, 2015 5:13 PM - donhuevo: from the pic it looks like the motor should move a hair to the right
Jul 9, 2015 5:13 PM - Mike Kelly: man i love that warm print feel
Jul 9, 2015 5:13 PM - Mike Kelly: better than a laser printer
Jul 9, 2015 5:14 PM - donhuevo: oh that IS a good smell
Jul 9, 2015 5:14 PM - jbigler1986: It could yeah. Not messing with it if it works. I make be able to use a smaller drive gear if needed now too
Jul 9, 2015 5:15 PM - donhuevo: I don't think you want to go back to smaller. do whatever you have to to make the biggest one work
Jul 9, 2015 5:16 PM - donhuevo: so before they fade off over the horizon... the jet engine pic, particularly the little spiral painted on it...
Jul 9, 2015 5:16 PM - donhuevo: I've been stressing over where to put this damn radial blower on the new carriage and it hit me... put it forward of the front bearings
Jul 9, 2015 5:17 PM - jbigler1986: I can't picture that
Jul 9, 2015 5:17 PM - Mike Kelly: i'm probably the only weirdo that puts fresh prints against their face
Jul 9, 2015 5:18 PM - donhuevo: well, I'm gonna redesign the top cover as necessary but from the front, my carriage will look like a jet engine
Jul 9, 2015 5:18 PM - Mike Kelly: got a picture?
Jul 9, 2015 5:18 PM - donhuevo: nothing yet
Jul 9, 2015 5:18 PM - Mike Kelly: fitting radial blowers is my white whale
Jul 9, 2015 5:18 PM - Mike Kelly: just can't get it

 

Jul 9, 2015 5:19 PM - donhuevo:
Jul 9, 2015 5:20 PM - donhuevo: duct facing down, spinnie thing facing the front of the printer
Jul 9, 2015 5:20 PM - donhuevo: cut the screw ears off
Jul 9, 2015 5:20 PM - Mike Kelly: how you mounting it?
Jul 9, 2015 5:20 PM - donhuevo: make it symmetrical on the outside (duct will stay the same
Jul 9, 2015 5:21 PM - Mike Kelly: the mounting is always where i get stumped
Jul 9, 2015 5:21 PM - donhuevo: with the top cover removed, I can put a couple screws thru the back of the case
Jul 9, 2015 5:22 PM - donhuevo: or eight screws for you Roxie
Jul 9, 2015 5:22 PM - donhuevo: I need to find a nice little spiral decal for the spinny bit
Jul 9, 2015 5:23 PM - jbigler1986: Lol
Jul 9, 2015 5:28 PM - Stephen Capistron: I know how you mount radial blowers
Jul 9, 2015 5:29 PM - Stephen Capistron: Hot glue
Jul 9, 2015 5:29 PM - donhuevo: this is a really rough idea...
Jul 9, 2015 5:31 PM - donhuevo: if it turns out to be ugly, I can put the blower in back
Jul 9, 2015 5:31 PM - Stephen Capistron: Rotate the blower about 10 degrees CCW and you can use the lower right screw hole
Jul 9, 2015 5:32 PM - donhuevo: screw holes will be gone
Jul 9, 2015 5:32 PM - Stephen Capistron: Your duct will just have to make up for it being off angle
Jul 9, 2015 5:34 PM - donhuevo: I just decided, it's going on the back
Jul 9, 2015 5:43 PM - jbigler1986: Maybe you should redo the carriage
Jul 9, 2015 5:43 PM - donhuevo: I'm looking at that too
Jul 9, 2015 5:44 PM - jbigler1986: Build it around the fan
Jul 9, 2015 5:44 PM - donhuevo: the v6 is so tiny compared to the v5
Jul 9, 2015 5:44 PM - jbigler1986: Instead of the other way
Jul 9, 2015 5:57 PM - jbigler1986: Woops. Forgot to change esteps. Try number 2
Jul 9, 2015 6:21 PM - Mike Kelly:
Jul 9, 2015 6:38 PM - Mike Glass: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:271875 did you see this don
Jul 9, 2015 6:42 PM - Mike Kelly: mike did you price shop the conduit at nearby stores?
Jul 9, 2015 6:45 PM - donhuevo: I didn't. I'll keep that in mind
Jul 9, 2015 6:50 PM - Mike Kelly: i guess for 7.40 why bother
Jul 9, 2015 7:28 PM - jbigler1986: What is everyone up to
Jul 9, 2015 7:35 PM - donhuevo: I'm printing another squinty cup while I think about my carriage options
Jul 9, 2015 7:43 PM - jbigler1986: Had to remove a little material from the top filament guide. The bearing was hitting it.
Jul 9, 2015 7:47 PM - donhuevo: printing good now?
Jul 9, 2015 7:48 PM - jbigler1986: Moving the filament to the hotend now. It sounded like poop before though. Sounds great now.
Jul 9, 2015 7:51 PM - Mike Glass: no it was dirt cheap Mike, plus on of our contractors gave me what he had in his van which was more than enough. but I had already bought from lowes. But now I can expand mine.
Jul 9, 2015 7:52 PM - Mike Glass: whad up JBBBB
Jul 9, 2015 7:52 PM - Mike Glass: so what are you running for extruder now JB.
Jul 9, 2015 7:53 PM - Mike Glass: Don another idea. not pretty though. http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:602140
Jul 9, 2015 7:53 PM - jbigler1986: The black one i posted earlier. Just had to remove some material for the deive gear and bearing
Jul 9, 2015 7:54 PM - Mike Glass: what bearing is that? and gear drive
Jul 9, 2015 7:54 PM - jbigler1986: Skateboard bearing and MK7 i believe
Jul 9, 2015 7:59 PM - Mike Glass:
Jul 9, 2015 8:02 PM - Mike Glass: what color do you think for the led
Jul 9, 2015 8:12 PM - donhuevo: neopixel & gemma then you can make it any color you want
Jul 9, 2015 8:14 PM - donhuevo: http://www.adafruit.com/products/2470
Jul 9, 2015 8:26 PM - jbigler1986: Print is going. Skirt finished good
Jul 9, 2015 8:27 PM - jbigler1986: http://m.ustream.tv/channel/jbigler1986
Jul 9, 2015 8:27 PM - jbigler1986: Hard to see bc its translucent black
Jul 9, 2015 8:40 PM - jbigler1986: Think wr have a winner
Jul 9, 2015 8:42 PM - donhuevo: fn Yay!
Jul 9, 2015 8:45 PM - jbigler1986: Took long enough
Jul 9, 2015 8:46 PM - donhuevo: time to print another\
Jul 9, 2015 8:47 PM - donhuevo: early morning tomorrow. gonna leave you to enjoy the fruits of your labor
Jul 9, 2015 8:48 PM - jbigler1986: Im going to print the one i edited this morning after i print this new mount. To allow better fan airflow

 

Jul 9, 2015 at 9:03 PM - Mike Glass: Don
Jul 9, 2015 at 9:03 PM - Mike Glass: I need a long led string, maybe my old robo leds
Jul 9, 2015 at 9:04 PM - Mike Glass: camera looks nice jb, I really like that carriage.
Jul 10, 2015 at 3:27 AM - daniel871: http://m.instructables.com/id/3D-Printed-Record/
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:13 AM - jbigler1986: Morning
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:25 AM - Bill Monroe: jb
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:29 AM - daniel871: What's printing?
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:29 AM - Bill Monroe: twenties
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:29 AM - Bill Monroe:
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:37 AM - jbigler1986: Nothing bc it failed. Lil
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:37 AM - jbigler1986: Lol
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:40 AM - Bill Monroe: all of my printers have been idle for a week now
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:54 AM - jbigler1986: Well not mine. Just keep failing. I need to use a different extruder bad
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:57 AM - jbigler1986: i want to try airtripper or hercustruder. need to modify them for my bowden adapter. MK is going to do it for the hercustruder for me.
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:00 AM - jbigler1986: well i found an airtripper already modified http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:86918
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:14 AM - Bill Monroe: your printer once had attained awesomeness... put it back to whatever config it was in then
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:15 AM - jbigler1986: never
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:15 AM - jbigler1986: that was with a non geared stepper. esteps were so low
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:17 AM - Bill Monroe: hmmm I was under the impression that awesome prints were the measurement of success... silly me
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:17 AM - jbigler1986: never. i refuse to give up on this
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:19 AM - Bill Monroe: im close to turning my robo over to my son, and getting busy on the last printer
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:21 AM - daniel871: My goals right now are just to get the printer running again and have it correctly set the offset when autoleveling instead of somehow setting too low and scrubbing the glass.
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:25 AM - donhuevo: what happened jb?
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:28 AM - jbigler1986: filament was grinding a little. every like 50mm there was a small grind mark on the filament in the ptfe. then it caused to much friction and ground the filament
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:29 AM - jbigler1986: not entirely sure what caused it to start grinding
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:29 AM - donhuevo: maybe areas of aggressive retractiion in the print?
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:30 AM - jbigler1986: maybe. it should be able to retract though
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:32 AM - donhuevo: maybe slot your motor screw holes a little so the motor can move that hair to the right
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:32 AM - jbigler1986: i don't like that the drive gear has pressure on the filament without the idler on at all
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:33 AM - jbigler1986: so moving the holes over a little might solve it.
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:33 AM - donhuevo: maybe? too much and the bearing is gonna hit the filament too high
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:34 AM - jbigler1986: it printed like 5mm of the part perfect though
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:34 AM - jbigler1986: i bet the damn set screw came loose on the drive gear.
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:35 AM - donhuevo: I don't see how that would make it chew filament
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:37 AM - jbigler1986: the drive gear gets (loose) so the drive gear doesn't really move. also the bearing had a bunch of filament on it like it was the thing grinding it
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:37 AM - jbigler1986: need to but some locktite on the set screw and try it again
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:39 AM - jbigler1986: i had it printing good with the drive gear that i was using last night until the damn set screw came loose as well
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:40 AM - jbigler1986: so it's the 2nd time it has came loose.
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:42 AM - donhuevo: is the set screw making it all the way thru the hole in the sleeve and onto the flat of the shaft?
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:43 AM - jbigler1986: it's not the sleeved one. its the one i bought from twelve pro
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:43 AM - donhuevo: gotcha. that last pic you showed me was the sleeved one and that was the one where the filament was bent around the hob a little
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:44 AM - jbigler1986: yeah i put the MK7 on. it was a better fit
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:44 AM - JeffTheMess: Boom its friday...good morning roboneers
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:45 AM - jbigler1986: gonna loctite the bitch when get home
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:45 AM - jbigler1986: morning jeff
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:46 AM - Bill Monroe: jeff
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:48 AM - JeffTheMess: wow JB, such strong acts a violence, don't forget to wash up after
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:49 AM - jbigler1986: u know
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:49 AM - Bill Monroe: ya.. his nick in the GP is gangsta3D
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:51 AM - jbigler1986: gold chains and pagers all the way
Jul 10, 2015 at 6:09 AM - daniel871: Agh, I'm thinking about doing the direct drive mod again once I've got a few mostly-stock prints done with the Robo.
Jul 10, 2015 at 6:09 AM - daniel871: Doesn't help that I have all the needed parts just lying around.
Jul 10, 2015 at 6:10 AM - daniel871: Tatsu 6mm shaft gear, direct drive extruder mount, geared stepper... No real excuses not to.
Jul 10, 2015 at 6:10 AM - jbigler1986: you bought that thing?
Jul 10, 2015 at 6:13 AM - daniel871: Yep. I've spent more money than that on dumber stuff.
Jul 10, 2015 at 6:13 AM - daniel871: Need to measure the effective diameter of the geared part to calculate esteps somehow.
Jul 10, 2015 at 6:13 AM - jbigler1986: direct drive is easy to get going. bowden is a different story
Jul 10, 2015 at 6:14 AM - jbigler1986: calculate esteps just like normal
Jul 10, 2015 at 6:14 AM - jbigler1986: same way i calculate bowden esteps
Jul 10, 2015 at 6:16 AM - jbigler1986: calibrate extruder
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:02 AM - Mike Kelly: morning
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:03 AM - Mike Kelly: guess how much robotdigg quoted for shipping before the "discount"
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:03 AM - jbigler1986: morning
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:03 AM - jbigler1986: $300
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:05 AM - Mike Kelly: nope
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:05 AM - Mike Kelly: $65
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:05 AM - jbigler1986: not bad. how much after the discount
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:06 AM - Mike Kelly: discount was 28
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:07 AM - jbigler1986: oh. nice. how much stuff did you order
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:08 AM - Mike Kelly: too much probably....
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:13 AM - jbigler1986: ha. never
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:15 AM - jbigler1986: print was going beautiful last night until the damn set screw on the drive gear came loose. ugh
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:32 AM - Mike Kelly: woof
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:32 AM - Mike Kelly: just got a ton of bricks dropped on me
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:36 AM - jbigler1986: that sucks
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:39 AM - Stephen Capistron: Proverbial bricks I hope
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:40 AM - jbigler1986: enclosure finished yet?
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:44 AM - Stephen Capistron: Nope. Don't really need it until October I figure
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:46 AM - jbigler1986: but you have the time
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:46 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah proverbial
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:46 AM - Mike Kelly: let's just say things are worse than i thought
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:46 AM - jbigler1986: sorry. maybe getting let go sooner than you thought
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:46 AM - Mike Kelly: nope i'm too valuable
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:46 AM - Mike Kelly: i'll be one of the last to go
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:47 AM - jbigler1986: so are you guys just not able to sell anything or whats the issue
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:47 AM - Mike Kelly: yes
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:48 AM - Mike Kelly: i pretty much entirely blame the president
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:48 AM - Mike Kelly: he doesn't have any business sense or experience
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:48 AM - Mike Kelly: he's a research scientist playing businessman
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:48 AM - jbigler1986: CEO needs to step in. Presidents get fired all of the time. grow some balls
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:49 AM - Mike Kelly: our chief investor really needs to issue a mandate
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:49 AM - Mike Kelly: but i just don't see that happening
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:49 AM - Mike Kelly: he'll drag us along
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:50 AM - Mike Kelly: it's just all really shitty
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:51 AM - jbigler1986: that sucks
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:52 AM - Mike Kelly: we are pursuing additional investment
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:53 AM - Mike Kelly: but i just get the feeling it'll play out the same way it has for the past 4 years
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:53 AM - jbigler1986: http://3dprinting.com/jobs/view/3d-printing-engineer-frosted-ultra-detail-fud/
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:54 AM - Mike Kelly: heh
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:54 AM - Mike Kelly: "associates degree"

 

Jul 10, 2015 at 7:54 AM - Mike Kelly: thanks for looking out though
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:54 AM - jbigler1986: meh. u never know
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:55 AM - Mike Kelly: i spent most of last night working on my portfolio
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:55 AM - jbigler1986: do you enjoy ur current job
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:55 AM - Mike Kelly: also i'm starting to realize all my under extrusion issues are directly related to my geared steppers skipping steps
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:55 AM - Mike Kelly: it's not my dream job but i like the perk
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:56 AM - Mike Kelly: i have one job i'm excited about that i need the portfolio for
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:56 AM - Mike Kelly: but i'm also plagued by self doubt and low self worth
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:57 AM - Mike Kelly: so that's fun
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:59 AM - jbigler1986: Mine was finally doing great until that damn set screw
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:01 AM - Mike Kelly: i'm gonna try tuning the stepper again, but i did bite the bullet and order some other geared steppers with 8mm shaft from robotdigg
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:02 AM - jbigler1986: i wanted to. they were around 40 right?
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:02 AM - Mike Kelly: 29
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:02 AM - jbigler1986: here u go
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:02 AM - jbigler1986: http://www.indeed.com/viewjob?jk=89fa8d9db80322cd&q=3d+Printing&tk=19ps7fk7j0n304qp
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:03 AM - Mike Kelly: lmao
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:03 AM - Mike Kelly: and sell my soul too while we're at it
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:03 AM - jbigler1986: lol. yep
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:04 AM - jbigler1986: http://hire.jobvite.com/CompanyJobs...size&page=Job Description&j=ohRJZfwA&s=Indeed
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:05 AM - Mike Kelly: nice
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:06 AM - jbigler1986: sounds promising
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:11 AM - Mike Kelly: i did like SF a lot
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:11 AM - jbigler1986: you know who annoys me sometimes
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:13 AM - Mike Kelly: what
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:14 AM - Stephen Capistron: We'll t
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:15 AM - Stephen Capistron: Well that was a cliff hanger
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:15 AM - Mike Kelly: right?
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:17 AM - jbigler1986: idk why. I think it may be the tone he uses
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:17 AM - jbigler1986: sorry. lol. got an important call that moment
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:17 AM - Mike Kelly: haha
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:18 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah he's a bit holier than thou
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:19 AM - jbigler1986: love people with that attitude
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:19 AM - jbigler1986: not
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:19 AM - Mike Kelly: agreed
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:21 AM - Mike Kelly: if i ever get that way i give you permission to smack me around a bit
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:21 AM - daniel871: Shoutboxes shouldn't have edits. That way typos can be laughed at properly with evidence.
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:22 AM - jbigler1986: ha. i would have a lot
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:22 AM - daniel871: Today's controversy is minion toys from McDonald's that people think are saying swear words.
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:22 AM - daniel871: Must be a slow news day.
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:23 AM - Mike Kelly: shoutbox used to not have edits for normal folks
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:23 AM - Mike Kelly: i am above zee law
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:24 AM - Stephen Capistron: MK goes all inception on us and gets us imagining things
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:24 AM - daniel871: Aw, Omar Sharif died.
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:26 AM - Stephen Capistron: I'll be in and out today as with the last few. Lots of wife approved activities to be done
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:26 AM - Stephen Capistron: Today's is to clean the house
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:26 AM - Mike Kelly: your honey-do list must be pretty long then
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:27 AM - Mike Kelly: that's one thing i won't be looking forward to if i get laid off
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:27 AM - jbigler1986: wife approved?
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:27 AM - jbigler1986: you mean wife priorities
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:28 AM - daniel871: Cleaning the house is something that has to be on a list?
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:30 AM - Stephen Capistron: If I don't put stuff on a physical list it doesn't get done
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:30 AM - daniel871: Or is it more along the lines of "move all the furniture, vaccum/dust/seal everything, move the furniture back" than "clean these piles of dirty clothes and discarded books/movie cases/condoms"?
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:31 AM - daniel871: My very brief time in a dorm after high school was OCD-terror inducing. People are nasty.
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:32 AM - jbigler1986: wait. hold on. condoms? who uses those?
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:33 AM - Mike Kelly: doesn't it?
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:34 AM - Mike Kelly: our house would probably give you an OCD attack
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:34 AM - Mike Kelly: we suffer from clutter disorder
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:34 AM - jbigler1986: i can't do clutter. drives me nuts
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:35 AM - jbigler1986: except for my printer desk. it's a nightmare right now
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:36 AM - daniel871: I moved all my printer-related clutter to a cabinet shelf. All that's on my actual printer table right now is the printer itself and whatever spool I'm going to attempt to use.
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:36 AM - daniel871: Also a can of AquaNet
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:37 AM - jbigler1986: i have a workbench/desk
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:37 AM - Mike Kelly: i've been working on improving my spaces
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:37 AM - Mike Kelly: my desk has been clean for almost 2 weeks now
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:37 AM - Mike Kelly: that's like a lifetime record for me
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:37 AM - Mike Kelly: my garage workspace.... not so much
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:38 AM - daniel871: Now you've done it. You'll come home to a pile of clutter now.
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:38 AM - jbigler1986: i have nuts and bolts, steppers, soldering iron, drive gear, another drive gear, oh and another drive gear among lots of little bits of failed prints filament
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:39 AM - Mike Kelly: my wife has this habit of putting things like 90% away
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:39 AM - jbigler1986: i am getting hammered tonight if using loctite solves my problem
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:40 AM - Mike Kelly: where's mark tomlinson when you need him
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:40 AM - jbigler1986: then i will print a pedestal to put the loctite on
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:42 AM - Stephen Capistron: Just don't loctite the loctite to the loctite pedestal
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:43 AM - jbigler1986: that will be gorilla glued of course
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:46 AM - daniel871: Red Loctite?
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:48 AM - jbigler1986: blue
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:50 AM - daniel871: Just making sure.
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:50 AM - daniel871: Don't use Red unless you're confident that you'll never be taking it apart again.
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:51 AM - jbigler1986: gonna weld it on of course
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:52 AM - daniel871: Tighten it down, then back-fill the hole with solder.
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:53 AM - Stephen Capistron: Pla rivet / weld it on
Jul 10, 2015 at 9:20 AM - jbigler1986: the solder is a good idea. not sure how well it will bond to the stainless though
Jul 10, 2015 at 9:40 AM - daniel871: Do you have silver bearing solder?
Jul 10, 2015 at 9:41 AM - jbigler1986: nope
Jul 10, 2015 at 9:41 AM - daniel871:
Jul 10, 2015 at 9:42 AM - Mike Kelly: that's an itty bitty torch
Jul 10, 2015 at 9:42 AM - daniel871: http://www.amazon.com/STA-BRITE-SBSK-Silver-Solder-STAR2000/dp/B0015H6JYS
Jul 10, 2015 at 9:42 AM - daniel871: It's cute.
Jul 10, 2015 at 9:45 AM - jbigler1986: that's to much work
Jul 10, 2015 at 9:47 AM - daniel871: More than the work you've been doing chasing perfection?
Jul 10, 2015 at 9:50 AM - jbigler1986: i'm chasing just finishing a print at this point
Jul 10, 2015 at 9:57 AM - jbigler1986: it's literally just holding the set screw in place which is what loctite is for
Jul 10, 2015 at 9:58 AM - Stephen Capistron: Does loctite bond to pla?
Jul 10, 2015 at 9:59 AM - jbigler1986: no idea. why?
Jul 10, 2015 at 9:59 AM - Stephen Capistron: CA glue doesn't
Jul 10, 2015 at 9:59 AM - Stephen Capistron: And neither do any commonly available adhesives
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:00 AM - jbigler1986: no pla on it
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:02 AM - Mike Kelly: CA glue totally bonds to PLA what are you talking about
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:02 AM - Stephen Capistron: Not very well when I've used it
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:03 AM - Stephen Capistron: But it has been a while and I have been known to be wrong

 

Jul 10, 2015 at 10:03 AM - jbigler1986: i'm not using the drive gear with the pla spacer
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:03 AM - Stephen Capistron: And wrong on a more frequent basis than I would like
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:05 AM - Mike Kelly: i know that feel bro
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:05 AM - Mike Kelly: i glued an aria wing back together
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:05 AM - Mike Kelly: seems pretty strong
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:07 AM - jbigler1986: were u thinking thats the drive gear i was using SC?
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:09 AM - Stephen Capistron: I'm not sure what I was thinking
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:13 AM - jbigler1986: happens
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:16 AM - Mike Kelly: does $20 for shipping seem reasonable to you JB
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:18 AM - jbigler1986: total or just my cost of shipping?
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:19 AM - Stephen Capistron: Don't forget to include your handling charge
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:21 AM - Mike Kelly: just your shipping, i think i can do 15 but i kinda expect I'll need to use a flat rate from usps
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:21 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah let's do that
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:22 AM - Mike Kelly: because you only got like $17 worth of stuff
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:23 AM - Mike Kelly: or 25
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:24 AM - jbigler1986: it was like 25
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:24 AM - jbigler1986: but yeah. that works since you need to to send it to me too
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:26 AM - jbigler1986: ordered these earlier. bc well... why not
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:26 AM - jbigler1986: http://www.amazon.com/Signswise-Pie...436549279&sr=8-9&keywords=extruder+drive+gear
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:27 AM - Mike Kelly: buy all the drive gears!
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:28 AM - Mike Kelly: i'm curious how much longer till you buy a bondtech
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:28 AM - jbigler1986: i refuse to buy it. want to figure it out
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:28 AM - jbigler1986: i am just about buying them all
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:29 AM - Mike Kelly: make sure your extruder isn't skipping steps
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:29 AM - jbigler1986: it's not. it was smooth as can be until the fucking set screw
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:29 AM - Mike Kelly: gotcha
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:32 AM - jbigler1986: should have used loctite after it happened the first time
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:32 AM - Mike Kelly: i've always just gone with the crushed metal route
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:33 AM - jbigler1986: ?
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:33 AM - Mike Kelly: tighten it down so the metal crushes against each other
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:34 AM - jbigler1986: i think it would strip before that
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:34 AM - Mike Kelly: never have
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:34 AM - jbigler1986: i tightened it pretty damn tight and it still backed out
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:35 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah i should probably invest in locktite
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:40 AM - Stephen Capistron: I have a table from fasten all somewhere that has all the max tightening torques for pretty much every size screw somewhere
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:41 AM - Stephen Capistron: I hate the apple autocorrect system. Swiftkey keyboard is way better
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:46 AM - jbigler1986: love swiftkey
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:56 AM - Stephen Capistron: "When are you leaving work" is probably the easiest message to send on my phone
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:57 AM - Mike Kelly: https://scontent.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...=51427693870c559744104a9f30e26ae8&oe=56287109
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:58 AM - jbigler1986: ha. if only i drank more
Jul 10, 2015 at 10:59 AM - Mike Kelly: i have a very neat hobby
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:01 AM - jbigler1986: if this fucker fails i'm gonna try a non geared stepper.
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:01 AM - Stephen Capistron: Likewise
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:01 AM - Stephen Capistron: Hobby, not stepper
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:01 AM - jbigler1986: lol
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:01 AM - jbigler1986: i knew
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:06 AM - jbigler1986: that time when you know you have 2 things to get from the hardware store but can only remember 1.
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:07 AM - Mike Kelly: so every time?
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:16 AM - jbigler1986: no. sometimes i only go for 1. i know i needed 2 but cannot remember what it was
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:18 AM - donhuevo: belated morning
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:19 AM - Mike Kelly: ahoy don
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:20 AM - donhuevo: arrrr
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:20 AM - Mike Kelly: fun fact that was the common greeting and what alexander graham bell wanted people to answer the phone with
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:20 AM - Mike Kelly: but edison is a dick and decided to use Hello, and that's what stuck
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:20 AM - Mike Kelly: then sometime in the mid 90's hello went from being a statement to Hello?
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:21 AM - donhuevo: what was fun about that?
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:21 AM - Mike Kelly: fine, annoying fact
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:22 AM - donhuevo: sorry. extremely salty today. ahoy is fitting for me
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:22 AM - Mike Kelly: it's ok i also had a rough morning
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:25 AM - donhuevo: at least it's Friday
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:26 AM - daniel871: Maybe for you.
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:27 AM - donhuevo: someone else is salty. I'm not alone
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:30 AM - daniel871: Well, this is certainly something.
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:30 AM - jbigler1986: your stripper friend probably tastes like salt don
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:31 AM - daniel871: LOL at the Dark Souls Praise the Sun bit.
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:40 AM - Stephen Capistron: You know valve has a company trip to Hawaii every year
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:45 AM - donhuevo: swanky! our community should have an annual visit to Branson
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:53 AM - jbigler1986: don are u in texas?
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:54 AM - donhuevo: PA. although I did live in Irving for 5 years
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:54 AM - jbigler1986: oh. nevermind. not to far away from me
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:57 AM - donhuevo: do you need me to be in Texas for something?
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:58 AM - jbigler1986: no. i just thought that's where you were located
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:59 AM - donhuevo: ah
Jul 10, 2015 at 11:59 AM - donhuevo: I'm a little north of Pittsburgh
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:02 PM - Stephen Capistron: Ha, I had friends go to grove city
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:02 PM - donhuevo: I did two years there right out of high school
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:02 PM - Stephen Capistron: That is the extent of my knowledge of the area
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:03 PM - Stephen Capistron: They gave you a laptop and it was pretty affordable right?
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:04 PM - donhuevo: I was there in the 80's
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:04 PM - donhuevo: with my mullet
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:05 PM - Stephen Capistron: You are dating yourself
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:06 PM - donhuevo: you really didn't give me a choice. It was either answer that way or laptops hadn't been invented yet
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:13 PM - Mike Kelly: remind me not to go to russia
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:15 PM - jbigler1986: holy hell that helicopter
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:16 PM - Mike Kelly: also i was thinking last night, it would have made more sense for prime day to be on 7/17 since those are both prime numbers
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:17 PM - jbigler1986: NERD ALERT
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:17 PM - Stephen Capistron: It is amazons birthday though
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:18 PM - Mike Kelly: oh
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:19 PM - jbigler1986: 1:30 mark. really?
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:20 PM - Mike Kelly: it's wearing a wig
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:21 PM - jbigler1986: then they guy gets out a gun on the next clip. holy shit
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:22 PM - Mike Kelly: it's 13 minutes of absolute insanity
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:22 PM - donhuevo: you didn't see the jet fighter yet then
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:25 PM - jbigler1986: wow
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:26 PM - daniel871: I could get behind a law that every car needs a dash cam for accident investigation purposes so that we could have lunatic American dashcam vids like the Russian ones.
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:27 PM - Mike Kelly: agreed
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:28 PM - donhuevo: lot's of tires rolling down the roads there
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:29 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah do they not believe in lug nuts?
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:29 PM - daniel871: Love that one video of the car trying to pass on the right that jams up on a guard rail.
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:30 PM - daniel871: And the many, many motorcycle riders that kick out at cars, resulting in them spilling out at highway speeds.

 

Jul 10, 2015 at 12:30 PM - Mike Kelly: that one's a classic
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:32 PM - daniel871:
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:33 PM - Mike Kelly: that guy is also an idiot
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:40 PM - donhuevo:
Jul 10, 2015 at 12:48 PM - jbigler1986: don you should have say may not be work appropriate for some
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:00 PM - Mike Kelly: http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2015/07/10/science/An-Image-of-Earth-Every-Ten-Minutes.html?_r=1
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:00 PM - Mike Kelly: whoa
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:02 PM - jbigler1986: thats awesome
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:04 PM - donhuevo: I didn't watch the whole thing. sorry. DAMNIT
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:04 PM - jbigler1986: how much is robo offering for the lead screws
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:06 PM - Speakr4thedead: hey all, quick question about Simplify3D. Does the global z-offset setting override M595? Or add to it?
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:07 PM - Mike Kelly: well you'd want to use one or the other most likely
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:08 PM - Speakr4thedead: I figured
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:08 PM - Speakr4thedead: they just don't really make that clear
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:08 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah, joey's pretty quick at replying to emails if you wanna message the s3d tech support
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:09 PM - Speakr4thedead: cool thanks for the tip!
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:11 PM - jbigler1986: stupid M595
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:12 PM - Mike Kelly: M565 is what it is
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:12 PM - Speakr4thedead: I had to replace my z-switches this week and it's been a hilarious nightmare getting everythign recalibrated
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:13 PM - jbigler1986: i like the G1 Z(insert offset here)
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:13 PM - jbigler1986: G92 Z0
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:13 PM - jbigler1986: code way better
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:13 PM - jbigler1986: thanks to don for that tip like last week or 2 weeks ago
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:17 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah that's how i originally taught people to do it
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:17 PM - Speakr4thedead: you run that in place of M565?
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:18 PM - jbigler1986: yeah
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:18 PM - Mike Kelly: it adds a step to the process but i find it more reliable
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:18 PM - Speakr4thedead: cool
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:18 PM - jbigler1986: M565 wouldn't always accept my edit for some reason
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:18 PM - donhuevo: welcome
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:18 PM - Speakr4thedead: I'll try anything at this point
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:19 PM - jbigler1986: it wouldn't work for a few days then it would. So i say to hell with it
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:19 PM - jbigler1986: just commented it out and added that gcode
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:20 PM - Speakr4thedead: for the offset, should Z be a negative value?
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:20 PM - Speakr4thedead: like G1 Z-1?
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:20 PM - jbigler1986: using M565 or the other?
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:20 PM - jim3Dbot: Hey Don, noticed you are from North of da'burg.......what area? that's my stompin' gnds.
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:20 PM - Speakr4thedead: other
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:21 PM - jbigler1986: no negative
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:21 PM - Speakr4thedead: k
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:21 PM - jbigler1986: mine is Z0.7 right now
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:21 PM - jbigler1986: you can go negative if needed
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:23 PM - Speakr4thedead: okay, so here's my problem...I have no idea why this is happening but here are my autolevel readouts (can't grab the last one fast enough)
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:23 PM - Speakr4thedead: they are huge
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:24 PM - Speakr4thedead: and negative
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:24 PM - Speakr4thedead: but I have G1 Z0.8
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:24 PM - Speakr4thedead: and b/c of that, the nozzle just ends up dragging across the glass
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:25 PM - Mike Kelly: those values are fine
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:25 PM - Mike Kelly: where do you have your G1/G92?
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:26 PM - Speakr4thedead:
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:26 PM - Speakr4thedead: oops
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:27 PM - Speakr4thedead:
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:27 PM - Mike Kelly: don't do G28 X0 Y0 Z0, just do G28
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:27 PM - Mike Kelly: that way you home in the center and your Z offset is more accurate to where you'll be printing
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:27 PM - Speakr4thedead: ah
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:29 PM - Speakr4thedead: so having negatives over (under?) -1 doesn't matter as long as they are all close?
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:29 PM - Speakr4thedead: I was under the impression you should get everything as close to 0 as possible
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:29 PM - Mike Kelly: right
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:29 PM - Mike Kelly: na
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:29 PM - Mike Kelly: if 0 that means your bed is perfectly flat
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:29 PM - Mike Kelly: which is fine
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:29 PM - Mike Kelly: but the measurements compensate for any slight tilt
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:30 PM - Speakr4thedead: thanks Mike, I'm a few months in but a lot of this is still black magic to me
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:31 PM - Speakr4thedead: I've been hand twisting rods and shit all week lol
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:31 PM - Mike Kelly: the LCD is worth is alone for baby stepping
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:31 PM - Mike Kelly: after i got that i no longer twist rods
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:32 PM - Speakr4thedead: yeah that will be my next investment after Simplify
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:37 PM - Stephen Capistron: I love me some beer o'clock
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:39 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah i'm pretty sure it's beer o'clock here now too
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:39 PM - Mike Kelly: what's a good test object i can do that might be fun dual extrusion
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:40 PM - Mike Kelly: hmm maybe i should print one of those frog things
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:41 PM - Speakr4thedead: got conductive filament? You could try printing a circuit
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:43 PM - Stephen Capistron: Can you do the Emmet gear ring
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:43 PM - Stephen Capistron: With flex on the outside so it is a wheel
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:45 PM - Mike Kelly: that would be cool
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:46 PM - Mike Kelly: i'm looking for something to test my retraction settings
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:51 PM - Mike Kelly:
Jul 10, 2015 at 2:04 PM - Mike Kelly: anyone near w/ a gregs wade right now
Jul 10, 2015 at 2:04 PM - jbigler1986: Who is ready for awesome picture
Jul 10, 2015 at 2:06 PM - Stephen Capistron: Going to leave us hanging again
Jul 10, 2015 at 2:07 PM - jbigler1986:
Jul 10, 2015 at 2:08 PM - Mike Kelly: you are right, that is awesome
Jul 10, 2015 at 2:08 PM - Mike Kelly: wtf happened
Jul 10, 2015 at 2:11 PM - jbigler1986: Jammed but the extruder kept on going. Lol
Jul 10, 2015 at 2:15 PM - donhuevo: that's a neat trick
Jul 10, 2015 at 2:32 PM - donhuevo: Mike, would you let me buy you a better camera because that sucks
Jul 10, 2015 at 2:33 PM - donhuevo: or is it a good camera inside 3 ziploc bags
Jul 10, 2015 at 2:42 PM - jbigler1986: Enclosure
Jul 10, 2015 at 2:53 PM - Mike Kelly: hahaha
Jul 10, 2015 at 2:53 PM - Mike Kelly: it's not the best camera
Jul 10, 2015 at 2:53 PM - Mike Kelly: but it's small and light weight
Jul 10, 2015 at 2:54 PM - Mike Kelly: it's ok though because the print looks like crap
Jul 10, 2015 at 2:54 PM - Mike Kelly: i'll probably kill it shortly
Jul 10, 2015 at 2:58 PM - donhuevo: killing the frog
Jul 10, 2015 at 3:09 PM - jbigler1986: Got the loctite then i get home to my father in law being here. Ugh
Jul 10, 2015 at 3:27 PM - Mike Kelly: youch
Jul 10, 2015 at 3:34 PM - donhuevo: did he see the pic of your printer coughing up a hairball and came running to help?
Jul 10, 2015 at 3:39 PM - jbigler1986: Lol. Nah. The door to the den was closed
Jul 10, 2015 at 3:58 PM - daniel871: Yay, fuse replaced and Robo fired up.
Jul 10, 2015 at 3:58 PM - Mike Kelly: bitchin

 

Jul 10, 2015 at 3:58 PM - donhuevo: YAY!
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:17 PM - donhuevo: I just got my first PLA splinter!
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:31 PM - jbigler1986: Wtf
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:31 PM - jbigler1986: How did you pull that off
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:33 PM - Mike Kelly: i've gotten them scraping pla off the build plate using a fingernail, like for the outline
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:33 PM - Mike Kelly: skirt
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:33 PM - donhuevo: cleaning out the inside of one of squinty's melons. Lots of stringing in there
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:37 PM - donhuevo: it's still technically a solid object I'm just printing at 0% infill so Cura isn't bothering to retract before travel
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:38 PM - Mike Kelly: good call
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:39 PM - Mike Kelly: pretty sure my stepper is getting too hot and skipping steps
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:39 PM - donhuevo: I thought you were cooling them?
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:39 PM - donhuevo: on another note...
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:40 PM - Mike Kelly: my direct drive isn't getting cooled
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:40 PM - donhuevo: ductwork to follow and blow along 3 sides of heater block (4th side has the wires
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:42 PM - Mike Kelly: i approve
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:47 PM - daniel871: Hm. Nothing I do with the offset settings with Waldo's firmware seems to take.
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:47 PM - daniel871: Everything goes straight to trying to scrape the glass.
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:48 PM - daniel871: Going to just put the original Robo firmware back on and redo my programs like they used to be done.
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:51 PM - donhuevo: that's weird
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:52 PM - daniel871: Yeah, changed the -1.2 he had to -1.0 and -.8, then went back the other way to -1.4 and it made no difference whatsoever.
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:53 PM - daniel871: Like the Robo was ignoring the bits that were in the updated Marlin stuff.
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:53 PM - donhuevo: go positive?
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:53 PM - donhuevo: maybe all those numbers are in the glass
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:53 PM - daniel871: Didn't do that. Hm.
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:54 PM - daniel871: The comment line says it must be negative.
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:54 PM - donhuevo: eh
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:54 PM - donhuevo: mine's a positive number
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:55 PM - donhuevo: G1 Z0.62 ; raise nozzle the z offset (variable)
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:55 PM - daniel871: #define Z_PROBE_OFFSET_FROM_EXTRUDER -1.4 //--ROBO-BH -below (always!)
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:55 PM - donhuevo: well, there's one difference. yours is in firmware mines in gcode
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:57 PM - daniel871: Yeah, supposedly the homing and autolevel are supposed to use that offset instead of having it in the G-code every time.
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:57 PM - donhuevo: here's my start gcode...
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:58 PM - daniel871: Think I'll try that code.
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:58 PM - donhuevo: well, don't try all of it but the autolevel, the z offset and the force new z offset
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:59 PM - daniel871: That's what I meant.
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:59 PM - donhuevo: sorry.
Jul 10, 2015 at 4:59 PM - daniel871: The G29 in Waldo's firmware raises 3mm after probing. Will what mess it up?
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:00 PM - daniel871: #define Z_RAISE_AFTER_PROBING 3 //--ROBO-BH How much the extruder will be raised after the last probing point.
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:00 PM - donhuevo: maybe comment all that out for the time being and reflash
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:10 PM - daniel871: I'd actually reflashed v3 firmware already, so I'm going back to my original starting G-code and seeing if it behaves the same way.
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:11 PM - daniel871: Are the lead screws everyone is talking about in the thread about them anything special for the R1 owners that already have the M8 rods,?
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:15 PM - daniel871: Okay, original firmware is working like a charm, so there's definitely something buggy in the way Waldo's firmware and the Gcode interact.
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:15 PM - donhuevo: excellent. As for the threaded rods, I'm shrugging.
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:16 PM - daniel871: The OP in the thread talks about steppers and lead screws, but all of the actual posts by Harry only talk about the lead screws so IDK.
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:17 PM - donhuevo: if they're talking about the new z steppers they're starting to install in the robos then they are different and they are linear steppers. Harry has his terminology wrong
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:18 PM - daniel871: Well, if they're a genuine upgrade I hope I can get in on it. JB's incomplete thread was exciting to read but I didn't want to try it myself without actual, complete instructions with photos.
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:19 PM - donhuevo: linear steppers are definitely a huge improvement over steppers+helical couplers+threaded rod and you should want to get your hands on them
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:21 PM - daniel871: I'm on Harry's list of people to send a link to on Monday, so as long as that happens I should be good.
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:21 PM - donhuevo: beyond installing them, you may need to touch your z steps in firmware but I'm thinkin' that's it
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:22 PM - daniel871: How much more accurate/better are we talking?
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:22 PM - daniel871: Or is it more of a "you'll just see a definite improvement in prints when you do it" thing.
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:23 PM - donhuevo: most all of the z artifact issues people have had are because of the helical couplers. They'll be way quieter too (at least mine were)
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:24 PM - donhuevo: so if you've been fighting any sort of z artifact, there's a good chance it'll be gone after the switch
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:25 PM - daniel871: I honestly haven't noticed any horrible Z direction problems. Most of my problems with weird blobs have been X & Y moves.
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:25 PM - Bill Monroe: there is no such thing as a linear stepper
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:26 PM - Bill Monroe: there are linear actuators, that use steppers
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:26 PM - Bill Monroe: or dc motors
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:26 PM - Bill Monroe: or hydrualics
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:26 PM - Bill Monroe: but no linear steppers

Jul 10, 2015 at 5:27 PM - daniel871: It's just shorthand terminology, looks like.
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:27 PM - Bill Monroe: its incorect
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:27 PM - Bill Monroe: as is my spelling
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:27 PM - donhuevo: sorry bill. I was just repeating the terminology from the omc site. in retrospect, I shouldn't expect the Chinese to get it right
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:28 PM - Bill Monroe: you're not the only.. the whole maker community does it too..
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:28 PM - donhuevo: if the president of the united states uses the word nucular, doesn't that make it the proper way to say it?
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:29 PM - Bill Monroe: the english language i bastardized the world over
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:29 PM - Bill Monroe: is
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:30 PM - Bill Monroe: pissghetti ideal (vs idea) valentimes days....
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:31 PM - donhuevo: it's like sitting still at the mall. the more you pay attention to humanity, the more entertaining it is
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:32 PM - daniel871: Loving this 1mm nozzle and .5mm layer height.
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:32 PM - Bill Monroe: doesnt it make parts look like cake icing?
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:32 PM - donhuevo: I want to see a picture next month when that print finally finishes
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:33 PM - daniel871: Yeah, but these are the herringbone gears for the Wade, they don't have to look like cast molded parts do they?
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:33 PM - Bill Monroe: yes!
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:33 PM - Bill Monroe: they MUST
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:34 PM - daniel871:
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:34 PM - Bill Monroe: all three of my machines have been idle for over a week now
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:35 PM - daniel871: Idle or broken?
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:35 PM - Bill Monroe: idle
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:35 PM - daniel871: Because my Robo has been down about that long for one reason or other that had to do with some kind of part failure.
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:36 PM - Bill Monroe: ive ben spending with arduinos

Jul 10, 2015 at 5:39 PM - daniel871: I've wanted to go just to see all the funny costumes and stuff, but I'm scared of the lunatics and the herpes.
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:39 PM - Bill Monroe: herpes?
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:40 PM - daniel871: The Comicon events in Atlanta are notorious for sad, depressing orgies full of nerds in costume.
Jul 10, 2015 at 5:41 PM - Bill Monroe: ah well, Atlanta

Jul 10, 2015 at 6:56 PM - daniel871: Hey, there's a design contest to win a Leapfrog Creatr HS http://www.cgtrader.com/challenges/...istribution&utm_campaign=Leapfrog3D-challenge
Jul 10, 2015 at 6:57 PM - daniel871: Design a spare part for something that you can't just go out and buy.
Jul 10, 2015 at 6:58 PM - daniel871: I like how only one of the entries is an actual spare part.
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:02 PM - daniel871: Hm. Got one print done, but the .5mm layer height didn't hold up well for the small gear.
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:03 PM - daniel871: Base separated from the herringbone when taking it off the bed.
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:03 PM - daniel871: Reprinting with smaller layer heights and now it's back to dragging the glass.
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:07 PM - jbigler1986: this print is going great still
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:08 PM - daniel871: Now that I'm actually getting running again, I think the next time I have spare time I'll change over to the geared stepper direct drive and get that running (once I get the Z offset crap figured out).
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:12 PM - daniel871: I figure MK can win that Leapfrog printer pretty easily.
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:12 PM - jbigler1986: start gcode for ya
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:12 PM - jbigler1986: G28 ; home all axes G1 Z5 F5000 ; lift Z by 5mm M565 Z-.56 ; set the offset for auto-leveling mechanism G29 ; run auto-level G1 Z0.08 G92 Z0
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:17 PM - jbigler1986: M565 is commented out. Not sure why it didnt show
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:28 PM - jbigler1986: MK if you are around i got the bowden adapter today. Thanks
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:34 PM - daniel871: I'll try that some time tomorrow evening. Have to get up at 5 so I'm going to bed.
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:35 PM - jbigler1986: Work on saturday. Booooooo
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:35 PM - daniel871: Less negative means closer to bed right?
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:35 PM - daniel871: If m565 works that is.
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:38 PM - jbigler1986: um. i forget honestly
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:41 PM - Mike Glass: .6 is closer than .7

Jul 10, 2015 at 7:50 PM - jbigler1986: sweet
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:59 PM - daniel871: Took it to .6 and than back to 1.fn5 and it made no difference.
Jul 10, 2015 at 7:59 PM - daniel871: -on both.
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:00 PM - daniel871: Its like the robo is ignoring offsets on z for some reason.
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:00 PM - jbigler1986: Get rid of M565. I had to as well
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:02 PM - daniel871: I'll try it tomorrow. Need to go to sleep. Going to listen to an audiobook or something.
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:04 PM - jbigler1986: Mine was saying fuck you to M565 and ignoring it
Jul 10, 2015 at 8:08 PM - jbigler1986: Don, just looked at ur model. What kind of dict would you use for that

 

Jul 11, 2015 at 3:50 AM - Bill Monroe: good morning
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:41 AM - jbigler1986: Morning. Parts finished and looks great again. Loctite did the trick
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:44 AM - Printed Solid: morning all. spammy night last night
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:54 AM - Bill Monroe: I like Spam
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:55 AM - Bill Monroe: oh, you didnt mean the tasty meat product huh?
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:56 AM - Bill Monroe: Loctite Blue, 5-minute Epoxy, and JB Weld are all one needs in their toolbox to fix anything
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:06 AM - donhuevo: and duct tape and a tube sock per MacGuyver
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:09 AM - jbigler1986: morning don
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:10 AM - donhuevo: morning jb. just saw your question.
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:10 AM - Mike Glass: good morning
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:10 AM - donhuevo: morning Mike
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:10 AM - Mike Glass: I believe he called you a dict
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:10 AM - donhuevo: yes I'm thinking a lot about my dict at this moment
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:11 AM - donhuevo: trying to decide how girthy I want to make it
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:12 AM - donhuevo: the whole idea is to vent the air as close to the heater block as possible but have it blowing away from it
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:14 AM - Mike Glass: doughnut of some sort?
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:15 AM - donhuevo: maybe, if I can keep it above the hot end wires. If not, it'll just have to be the three sides
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:16 AM - donhuevo:
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:16 AM - donhuevo: the wiring will be coming out the back in this view
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:17 AM - Mike Glass: So I may have found my new delta style printer, really thinging about getting it. http://folgertech.com/products/folger-tech-kossel-2020-full-3d-printer-kit
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:18 AM - donhuevo: for the money, you can't go wrong
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:18 AM - jbigler1986: Back to printing again
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:19 AM - Mike Glass: you couldnt piece one seperatly for that price
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:19 AM - Mike Glass: shipping is $27
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:19 AM - jbigler1986: Yeah thats cheap
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:19 AM - Mike Glass: all metal end but sure its not quality
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:20 AM - Mike Glass: I really want a delta style
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:20 AM - donhuevo: that looks like the ticket. the base won't be huge but still...
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:20 AM - donhuevo: it would be easy enough to enlarge later
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:21 AM - jbigler1986: Tall prints
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:21 AM - Mike Glass: 9" round, or so.
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:21 AM - donhuevo: the verticals are 700mm and the equilateral sides are 300
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:21 AM - Mike Glass: I dont think its really that tall, maybe get a 11-12" height
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:22 AM - Mike Glass: you can see where the endstops are, they are about 4 inches from the top
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:23 AM - Mike Glass: not sure why you couldnt raise them up.
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:24 AM - Mike Glass: this seems like a nice way to finish parts. http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:35489
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:26 AM - donhuevo: yeah it does
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:28 AM - Aaron Mitchell: Hey guys...anyone else have issues with sqeeky Z-axis rods?

Jul 11, 2015 at 7:29 AM - donhuevo: his dict needs support
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:29 AM - Aaron Mitchell: That's what I figured...was going to use some white lithium grease on them...just figured they would do that at the factory
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:29 AM - Mike Glass: lol, thats what she said

Jul 11, 2015 at 7:37 AM - donhuevo: I feel bad for anyone walking in on this
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:38 AM - jbigler1986: I use triflow
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:38 AM - jbigler1986: Lithium grease collects dirt. Triflow does not
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:38 AM - donhuevo: is that some sort of Canadian Viagra?
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:39 AM - Mike Glass: lol
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:39 AM - jbigler1986: More like a triple golden shower
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:40 AM - Mike Glass: wonder where he's doing it that gets dirt from..

Jul 11, 2015 at 8:15 AM - jbigler1986: Learned a ton. Still learning about bowden setups but have learned a ton about that as well.
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:15 AM - jbigler1986: The makerbot drive gear i bought yesterday i obly got one instead of 2 of them. Called amazon. Got a refund. Free drive gear
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:15 AM - Bill Monroe: back
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:15 AM - jim3Dbot: If it ain't broke...Fix it
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:17 AM - jbigler1986: If it ain't broke, break it
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:17 AM - donhuevo: if it ain't broke, upgrade it then fix it
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:18 AM - Bill Monroe: fix it until it's broken
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:21 AM - jbigler1986: so i have 4 different drive gears now. lol
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:21 AM - donhuevo: thought it was more
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:21 AM - donhuevo: don't you have some welder ones coming?
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:22 AM - jbigler1986: no. didn't go that route

 

Jul 11, 2015 at 8:22 AM - jbigler1986: well i have 7 total drive gears. 4 different kinds
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:22 AM - jbigler1986: i guess 5 if you count the one i broke. so 8 total
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:23 AM - jim3Dbot: Bam
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:23 AM - donhuevo: I say gold plate the one's you aren't gonna use, put them on gold chains and wear them in the hood
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:23 AM - jbigler1986: go perfect with my gold teeth
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:23 AM - donhuevo: boom
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:24 AM - jim3Dbot: Group name again, the 4 drive gears
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:36 AM - donhuevo: new potential grill...
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:38 AM - jim3Dbot: real nice
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:43 AM - donhuevo: we'll see how it prints
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:47 AM - Mike Glass: like butter
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:51 AM - donhuevo: let's hope
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:52 AM - donhuevo: I'm gonna print that black part now just for a test fit
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:53 AM - donhuevo: I'm gonna have a v6 carriage before the end of the weenend though damnit
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:54 AM - Mike Glass: did you have a v6 before, or a v8.
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:55 AM - donhuevo: had a straight six once. really embarassing
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:57 AM - donhuevo:
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:58 AM - Mike Glass: madator
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:58 AM - donhuevo: volare
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:58 AM - Mike Glass: aw
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:59 AM - donhuevo: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/donhuevo-s-robo3d
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:59 AM - jim3Dbot: Va-La-A la,la,la,la...Va-La-A...la,la,la,la.....
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:00 AM - Mike Kelly: Morning
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:01 AM - donhuevo:
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:01 AM - donhuevo: morning Mike
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:03 AM - jim3Dbot: showin' my age...member the commercial......my gad.........
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:04 AM - donhuevo: which car had the fine Corinthian leather?
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:04 AM - Mike Kelly: Don if you have a moment can you do me a favor and measure the vref of your extruder stepper driver
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:04 AM - donhuevo: I have a moment but I'm mid-print
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:04 AM - jim3Dbot: remember
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:04 AM - Mike Kelly: Yeah once the print is done
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:06 AM - donhuevo: you remember that even after I tweaked the pot, I still had to put a fan on my motor to keep it cool
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:14 AM - Mike Kelly: Makes sense. I need to figure out how to mount a fan onto mine now
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:16 AM - donhuevo: I have a 40 blowing on one side of my motor with no heatsink and its been doing the trick
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:21 AM - donhuevo: this particular print has a lot of rapid retractions and the motor is holding at 27C
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:21 AM - Mike Kelly: Yeah I'm hoping just a heatsink will be enough
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:21 AM - Mike Kelly: That's pretty cool
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:22 AM - Mike Kelly: Your dict is looking good
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:22 AM - Mike Glass: lol, morning MK
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:22 AM - donhuevo: haha, that's not my dict but I'm still happy to see you
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:23 AM - Mike Glass: You need my steeper heatsink clip on thingiverse.
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:24 AM - Mike Glass: or stepper
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:25 AM - Mike Kelly: Did you need anything from me yesterday mike?
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:26 AM - Mike Glass: just $100
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:26 AM - Mike Kelly: Who doesn't
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:26 AM - Mike Glass: yea
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:27 AM - Mike Glass: no, wanted to see if you had any in on the new quick release for the hotend that robo has, I could cut that out on the cnc, I have some alum plates that would work perfect
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:28 AM - Mike Kelly: I have one of hexagons old style of mounting plate. I can model in the pull loop if you want that
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:32 AM - Mike Glass: pull loop? is that what jb did?
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:35 AM - Mike Kelly: I dunno what you'd call the part you pull on the D shape
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:35 AM - donhuevo: or was that a spaghetti reference MG?
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:36 AM - Mike Glass: lol
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:37 AM - Mike Glass: is there a plate that I can swap a hex and a v6 ?
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:39 AM - Mike Kelly: If it works for the hex it'll work for the v6
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:40 AM - Mike Kelly: Also that abs renewal spray is just a low concentration of xylene
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:42 AM - Mike Glass: the clearcoat stuff I posted?
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:42 AM - Mike Kelly: Right
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:48 AM - donhuevo: I think it might work...
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:49 AM - Mike Glass: looks a little woobly
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:50 AM - jim3Dbot: Wasn't watchin', ABS temp concern or not
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:51 AM - donhuevo: its PLA and no temp worries
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:51 AM - jim3Dbot: k
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:51 AM - donhuevo: I've been running PLA carriages forever now and no temp issues have come up
Jul 11, 2015 at 9:57 AM - donhuevo: and now I'm having an idea for a push-to-connect gt2 clamp
Jul 11, 2015 at 10:15 AM - jim3Dbot: Thats good to hear, hav a few rolls of ABS but didn't try yet, rookie yet
Jul 11, 2015 at 10:17 AM - donhuevo: I'd put those away somewhere and forget about them for as long as you possibly can
Jul 11, 2015 at 10:18 AM - Mike Kelly: na abs owns
Jul 11, 2015 at 10:19 AM - donhuevo: owns the title for shittiest filament ever
Jul 11, 2015 at 10:20 AM - Mike Kelly: with the best post processing
Jul 11, 2015 at 10:20 AM - donhuevo: if you can make it to the end of the print, then yes
Jul 11, 2015 at 10:21 AM - Mike Glass: Mike, if you get a chance, I would be interested in the mount.
Jul 11, 2015 at 10:24 AM - Mike Kelly: cleaning the garage right now but once i find it i'll put it in my pocket for layer
Jul 11, 2015 at 10:25 AM - Mike Glass: making room are ya?
Jul 11, 2015 at 10:25 AM - Mike Glass: http://vaughnlive.tv/coolreactions uno box
Jul 11, 2015 at 10:26 AM - Mike Glass: man this rattling is driving me crazy from the threaded rods.
Jul 11, 2015 at 10:28 AM - Mike Kelly: are you gonna try and get the lead screw upgrade
Jul 11, 2015 at 10:28 AM - Mike Glass: yea i messaged Harry
Jul 11, 2015 at 10:33 AM - donhuevo: I'm showing a vref of .27
Jul 11, 2015 at 10:39 AM - Mike Glass: on what don?
Jul 11, 2015 at 10:40 AM - donhuevo: my extruder motor. Roxie wanted to know
Jul 11, 2015 at 10:40 AM - Mike Glass: oh the driver voltage?
Jul 11, 2015 at 10:41 AM - donhuevo: yep
Jul 11, 2015 at 10:41 AM - Mike Glass: I run mine around .285
Jul 11, 2015 at 10:42 AM - donhuevo: I think he and I have exactly the same geared steppers
Jul 11, 2015 at 10:43 AM - Mike Glass: well thats what I run on my z on the cnc, and .852 for the axis as they run 2 steppers.
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:03 AM - jbigler1986: How much are they selling the upgrade for
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:04 AM - Mike Glass: $19.99
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:05 AM - jbigler1986: For each one?
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:06 AM - donhuevo: a buck two ninety eight for the pair?
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:07 AM - Mike Glass: I have no Idea, MK may know
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:08 AM - Mike Glass: Don, quit hiding, you dict.
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:09 AM - jbigler1986: Lol. Damn phone
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:11 AM - Mike Glass: you gave us something to use all day..lol
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:12 AM - jbigler1986: Its ok Roxie
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:12 AM - donhuevo: I don't know how to unhide myself
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:12 AM - donhuevo: and MK is Roxie
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:12 AM - jbigler1986: They both are
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:15 AM - donhuevo: that defeats the point
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:15 AM - donhuevo: check mg's name again
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:15 AM - Mike Kelly: The first name was the same for us

 

Jul 11, 2015 at 11:16 AM - donhuevo: well FUCK
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:16 AM - donhuevo: did you catch the vref you wanted? if not, .27
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:16 AM - Mike Kelly: I did thanks
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:16 AM - Mike Kelly: I'll check that when I get back
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:17 AM - donhuevo: you're friggin' welcome
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:17 AM - Mike Kelly: I do know the price of the lead screw upgrades. The early purchasers get a very good price but the second round is kinda expensive
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:18 AM - Mike Kelly: Kinda wish I had ordered through robotdigg now
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:19 AM - Mike Glass: boo
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:22 AM - Mike Glass: So what your saying I should of ordered the 5 pairs, and got a better deal
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:35 AM - jbigler1986: Whats the price
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:37 AM - Mike Glass: box turned out nice, but got some wierd ringing in some places
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:38 AM - jbigler1986: MK got the adapter. Thanks
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:42 AM - Mike Glass: all 6 of my rolls of filament shipped out.. be here monday.
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:48 AM - jbigler1986: I got mine today
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:53 AM - Mike Glass: thats no fair.
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:53 AM - donhuevo: mine should be here today too
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:53 AM - Mike Glass: you suck too
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:53 AM - donhuevo: I know I'm a dict. but I'm a dict with a roll of charcoal
Jul 11, 2015 at 11:56 AM - Mike Glass: yea you stole mine
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:13 PM - daniel871: Figured out the offset problem after reflashing the robo hardware.
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:13 PM - donhuevo: what was it?
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:14 PM - daniel871: S3D kept reverting to M851 when posting a program instead of M565.
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:14 PM - daniel871: Had to change the process, update, close and reopen and make sure M565 stuck.
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:15 PM - jbigler1986: Well i had that problem and never had M851 at all
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:15 PM - donhuevo: M851 isn't even a valid code
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:15 PM - daniel871: It is in Waldo's firmware.
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:15 PM - donhuevo: at least not according to this... http://reprap.org/wiki/G-code
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:15 PM - jbigler1986: God's firmware
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:16 PM - daniel871: His firmware also ignores M565, so its a problem.
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:17 PM - jbigler1986: If its not on that gcode page i am not using it
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:17 PM - donhuevo: maybe the 851 is a typo?
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:17 PM - daniel871: JB's solution would probably work.
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:17 PM - jbigler1986: Actually don told me about it
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:17 PM - donhuevo: sure, blame it all on me
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:18 PM - jbigler1986: The G1 Z?, G92 Z0 one
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:18 PM - jbigler1986: I told him to use that one and comment out M565
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:20 PM - daniel871: I'll try that tonight with Waldo's firmware.
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:20 PM - daniel871: Zebra plate is working good as well now.
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:20 PM - donhuevo: what exactly are the benefits to the new firmware?
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:20 PM - donhuevo: so far I'm only hearing downsides
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:20 PM - jbigler1986: Wonder if this actually works.
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:20 PM - jbigler1986: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:8460
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:21 PM - daniel871: Supposedly more support for different lcd screens and addons. Some thermal runaway safeguards, other debugging stuff.
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:22 PM - donhuevo: my thought is, until you absolutely need it, wait
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:23 PM - jbigler1986: Yeah i would not use an unproven firmware
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:24 PM - donhuevo: don't be this guy...
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:25 PM - jbigler1986: Especially from someone who is new to 3d printing
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:40 PM - jbigler1986:
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:40 PM - jbigler1986: Finally got the fan on it good.
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:41 PM - Mike Kelly: How much of a gap?
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:41 PM - donhuevo: good air flow?
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:42 PM - jbigler1986: Very good. There is about a half an inch
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:42 PM - Mike Kelly: How are you securing it?
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:43 PM - jbigler1986: The mount is snug fit on the stepper. Then the fan bolts onto the mount
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:44 PM - jbigler1986: Im pulling the heat from the stepper
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:44 PM - Mike Kelly: Gotcha. I'm exploring ideas
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:44 PM - jbigler1986: Put some thermal paste on the back of the stepper
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:45 PM - donhuevo: you put some paste on the stepper's ass
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:45 PM - jbigler1986: Better believe it. Slapped it on there
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:45 PM - donhuevo: so that little hole by the wires is the only place air can get in?
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:46 PM - jbigler1986: No
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:46 PM - Mike Glass: holes on the side too
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:46 PM - jbigler1986: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:25177
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:46 PM - donhuevo: I see it now
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:49 PM - jbigler1986: I printed one with ducts but the airflow was horrible
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:49 PM - donhuevo: as we've learned, some ducts can be dicts
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:49 PM - jbigler1986: Haha
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:59 PM - donhuevo: now I'm thinking about venting the heatsink under the smooth rod bearings
Jul 11, 2015 at 12:59 PM - donhuevo:
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:01 PM - Mike Glass: why did you use thermal paste if you dont have anything attached?
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:02 PM - jbigler1986: to draw some more heat
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:02 PM - donhuevo: and prevent rashes
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:02 PM - jbigler1986: always a good thing
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:03 PM - Mike Glass: but just paste by itself, not sure I get that.
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:04 PM - donhuevo: maybe even microscopically it presents a greater surface area?
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:04 PM - Mike Glass: seems it would just gather dust
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:06 PM - jbigler1986: Got a problem with dust? Its actually thermal tape. Not paste
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:08 PM - Mike Glass: without a heatsink it just seems silly.
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:09 PM - jbigler1986: It will draw a little. Thats why they use them on game consoles
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:10 PM - jbigler1986: On the ram chips
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:10 PM - Mike Glass: I guess Ive seen tape on chips must be the same eh.
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:11 PM - jbigler1986: Wont be nearly as effective as without a heatsink. But it will help some. Have a bunch of it so figured why not
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:11 PM - jbigler1986: I mean with a heatsink
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:14 PM - jbigler1986: one of these days i will read what i type before sending it
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:15 PM - Mike Glass: lol
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:16 PM - Mike Kelly: mike you got the harbor freight flex shaft grinder online yeah?
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:20 PM - Mike Glass: yes I did
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:20 PM - Mike Glass: we are just getting one here now though.
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:21 PM - Mike Kelly: i didn't see it in the store anyways
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:21 PM - Mike Glass: I had a coupon when I got mine so it was like $38 plus shipping.
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:21 PM - Mike Kelly: do the 20% off ones work online
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:22 PM - Mike Glass: yea it should
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:24 PM - Mike Glass: are you going to order a diffent handpiece?
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:24 PM - Mike Kelly: How would you suppose i could cut this out and add a slide out keyboard tray: http://i.imgur.com/4c1eWIh.jpg
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:25 PM - Mike Glass: jigsaw, or if you have the smaller cordless saw, thats what I would use.
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:25 PM - Mike Glass: along with the jigsaw
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:26 PM - Mike Kelly: ok jigsaw is kinda what i was leaning towards
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:26 PM - Mike Kelly: you mean like a circular saw?
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:27 PM - Mike Glass: yea, I have a small dewalt that works great for small areas
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:27 PM - jbigler1986: mk, printing the dual carriage

 

Jul 11, 2015 at 1:29 PM - Mike Kelly: awesome
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:30 PM - jbigler1986: finally
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:35 PM - Mike Glass: Mike did you see my question on the handpiece?
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:36 PM - jbigler1986: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/jbigler1986
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:38 PM - Mike Glass: dam moron that designed this case, lid doesnt even fit, not even close.
Jul 11, 2015 at 1:40 PM - Mike Glass: 3 hours wasted.
Jul 11, 2015 at 2:05 PM - jbigler1986:
Jul 11, 2015 at 2:47 PM - Mike Kelly: i did wasn't sure what you meant
Jul 11, 2015 at 3:10 PM - jbigler1986: failed print
Jul 11, 2015 at 3:10 PM - jbigler1986: put non geared stepper on with the (makerbot) drive gear i got today. not skipping a beat. even going fast as hell
Jul 11, 2015 at 3:11 PM - donhuevo: so why did it fail?
Jul 11, 2015 at 3:12 PM - jbigler1986: filament stopped feeding. bearing was pressing on the filament as it even had a dent in it. filament didn't get ground. drive gear kept turning. idk
Jul 11, 2015 at 3:13 PM - jbigler1986: did it twice
Jul 11, 2015 at 3:13 PM - donhuevo: that makes no sense
Jul 11, 2015 at 3:14 PM - jbigler1986: agreed
Jul 11, 2015 at 3:14 PM - jbigler1986: bearing wasn't turning. tried to loosen it but didn't help at all
Jul 11, 2015 at 3:14 PM - jbigler1986: very very odd
Jul 11, 2015 at 3:14 PM - donhuevo: how can the drive gear turn under pressure and not chew?
Jul 11, 2015 at 3:15 PM - jbigler1986: got me
Jul 11, 2015 at 3:15 PM - jbigler1986: i was stumped
Jul 11, 2015 at 3:16 PM - daniel871: Trying Bronzefill again.
Jul 11, 2015 at 3:18 PM - jbigler1986: Was trying to print the airtripper extruder after the first fail
Jul 11, 2015 at 3:24 PM - jbigler1986: alright now non geared is stalling. i'm gonna sand the extruder a little more and but the bigger drive gear on
Jul 11, 2015 at 3:47 PM - Mike Glass: didnt turn out to bad.
Jul 11, 2015 at 3:53 PM - jbigler1986: Case for the spherebot?
Jul 11, 2015 at 3:59 PM - Mike Glass: sphereCat..lol
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:17 PM - jbigler1986: I can read cat on the lid. Cant really read the other part
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:20 PM - Mike Glass:
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:20 PM - jbigler1986: Here is how bad humidity sucks. Actual temp is 81. It feels like 93 due to humidity. Sucks
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:20 PM - jbigler1986: Thats a better angle
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:21 PM - Mike Glass: my boy was outside screaming like a girl, got stung 4 times on the face and neck. poor kid.
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:22 PM - Mike Glass: balmy 73 here, lovin it.
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:22 PM - jbigler1986: Damn. I have only been stung once my whole life. My oldest would scream like a girl too
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:22 PM - Mike Glass: yea he's got big welts all over him.
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:23 PM - jbigler1986: Poor guy
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:23 PM - Mike Glass: he's funny, after I told him its fine, he goes let me go look in the mirror and see..lol
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:25 PM - Mike Glass: We dont over react at all in front of them when stuff like that happens. bad parenting, I dunno..lol
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:34 PM - Mike Kelly: worst sting was from a wasp
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:34 PM - Mike Kelly: those things hurt
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:34 PM - Mike Kelly: i always here best thing to do as a parent is to make no big deal about it
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:36 PM - Mike Glass: garage clean?
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:37 PM - Mike Glass: think there is a wasp nest in the potentella he was trying to get his ball out of.
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:40 PM - Mike Kelly: Garage is very clean now
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:40 PM - Mike Kelly: Printing some more peg board pieces for my wrench
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:40 PM - Mike Kelly: One more after the one printing
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:42 PM - Mike Kelly: I actually got my 3 printers on my bench
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:42 PM - Mike Kelly: And cleaned my wood working bench enough to do some router planing
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:45 PM - Mike Glass: 3, did you move your mb in there.
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:45 PM - Mike Kelly: Yeah it's been in there
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:45 PM - Mike Kelly: I had my robo on a different bench. I moved it
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:46 PM - Mike Kelly: I'll snap a picture here once i get the pliers back up
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:49 PM - Mike Glass: cool
Jul 11, 2015 at 4:51 PM - Mike Glass: this building of a lathe is kinda cool.
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:11 PM - Mike Glass: Thanks Harry
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:11 PM - Mike Kelly: That guy has as random of an assortment of clamps as I do
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:12 PM - Mike Glass: that was a collection
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:19 PM - Mike Kelly: I really think the lead screw kit needs to be 90
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:20 PM - jbigler1986: So how much are they for you guys
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:20 PM - jbigler1986: Active member price or whatever
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:22 PM - Mike Kelly: 50
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:22 PM - Mike Kelly: we could probably get you a pair but i didn't expect you'd want one
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:24 PM - jbigler1986: Yeah. Good call
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:24 PM - jbigler1986: How much are they gonna sell them for? Like 110?
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:25 PM - Mike Glass: I would take 2 pairs, if they let me
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:27 PM - Mike Glass: with that new heavy carriage, i need 4.
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:29 PM - jbigler1986: 4 z steppers?
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:32 PM - Mike Glass: yea, gonna mount a really router on the robo..lol
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:32 PM - Mike Kelly: 100
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:36 PM - Mike Kelly: don't get the uinta sum'r
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:37 PM - Mike Kelly: not good
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:37 PM - Mike Glass: huh?
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:38 PM - Mike Kelly: it's a beer
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:40 PM - Mike Glass: from where?
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:42 PM - Mike Kelly: Uinta brewing, they're in utah
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:42 PM - jbigler1986: Beer sounds good
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:42 PM - Mike Kelly: generall i like this beer this one just reminds me of like a lager and it claims to be a summer ale
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:42 PM - Mike Kelly: which might be the point
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:44 PM - Mike Kelly:
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:44 PM - Mike Kelly: someday i'll be that cool
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:47 PM - Mike Glass: I dunno that might be kinda tough..lol
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:51 PM - jbigler1986: Wait. That isnt you?
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:52 PM - Mike Kelly: 29 going on 60
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:55 PM - jbigler1986: One day i will print the dual csrriage.
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:55 PM - jbigler1986: Carriage
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:56 PM - jbigler1986: Hercustruder?
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:56 PM - Mike Kelly: was just about to poke at that
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:56 PM - Mike Kelly: want me just to mail you mine
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:56 PM - Mike Kelly: i don't need it anymore
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:58 PM - jbigler1986: Its up to you. What kind of bowden clamp does it use
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:58 PM - Mike Kelly: the e3d one
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:59 PM - jbigler1986: Ur call on that. Dont want you to have to pay for the shipping
Jul 11, 2015 at 5:59 PM - Mike Kelly: damn just realized i forgot to enable support on the print
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:00 PM - Mike Kelly: as it's like almost done...
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:00 PM - jbigler1986: I usually forget to disable it when i dont need it
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:00 PM - jbigler1986: Inside holes is where its annoying
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:00 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:01 PM - Mike Kelly: it might still work
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:01 PM - jbigler1986: What is it
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:02 PM - jbigler1986: Did that guy pick up his part from 3dhubs
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:02 PM - Mike Kelly: it's a piece for my pegboard that uses an aluminum bar

 

Jul 11, 2015 at 6:02 PM - Mike Kelly: no
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:02 PM - Mike Kelly: i just texted him
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:02 PM - Mike Kelly: i'm annoyed
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:03 PM - jbigler1986: Yeah thats shitty
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:05 PM - jbigler1986: Did you send that invoice? I havent checked
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:07 PM - Mike Glass: mike is there a way to take off auto relations in SW
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:33 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Mike...do you mean "Hide the Relation symbols?"
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:35 PM - Aaron Mitchell: ...or prevent relations from being created at certain places, like centerpoints and edges?
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:36 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Hello, Harry...
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:40 PM - Mike Glass: yea prevent them everytime I move a line
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:41 PM - Aaron Mitchell: OK...go to OPTIONS>System Options>Sketch>Relations/Snaps
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:42 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Turn off SNAP TO MODEL GEOMETRY
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:42 PM - Mike Glass: my robo is crazy, when starting a print it goes to the side and does not move. like the x switch is bad
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:42 PM - Aaron Mitchell: You try manually moving the X-Axis?
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:42 PM - Mike Glass: yea nice and smooth
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:43 PM - Mike Glass: been working fine all day.
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:43 PM - Aaron Mitchell: TRy resetting...maybe the Arduino hiccuped...
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:44 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Broke down and bought Simplify3D
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:45 PM - Mike Glass: turned it off and on and ran autohome, same thing
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:45 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Printing a part with an overhang and couldn't believe the crazy supports MW created...could barely get them off
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:45 PM - Mike Glass: MW?
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:45 PM - Aaron Mitchell: You have to remove USB in order to reset arduino...it is powered through the USB port
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:45 PM - Mike Glass: Print sd only
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:45 PM - Mike Kelly: What do you mean by auto relation
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:45 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Sorry...meant MC...mattercontrol
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:46 PM - Mike Glass: MC sucks JFYI
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:46 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Yeah...I noticed
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:46 PM - Mike Kelly: Oh I see Aaron answered your question
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:46 PM - Mike Glass: when I move it line on a part it makes relations automatically
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:47 PM - Aaron Mitchell: I use a Dimension 1200 at work.....used to the dissolving filament
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:47 PM - Mike Glass: where is that setting?
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:47 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Look for a checkbox on the right side
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:48 PM - Aaron Mitchell: 2nd checkbox down
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:48 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Just disable snapping altogether...use the first box, if you want
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:49 PM - Mike Glass: right side of what, not seeing it
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:49 PM - Aaron Mitchell: OK..at top of Solidworks screen ...click the options button and bring up the options menu
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:50 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Then click the Systems Options Tab
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:50 PM - Aaron Mitchell: On the left side of the window...you will see SKETCH>Relations/Snaps...Click on the Relations/Snaps line
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:51 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Options will appear on the right...uncheck the first or second box, depending on your preference
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:51 PM - Mike Glass: I see it thanks
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:51 PM - Aaron Mitchell: np
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:51 PM - Mike Glass: automatic relations right
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:52 PM - Aaron Mitchell: I'm a teacher...patience is a virtue
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:52 PM - Mike Glass: so annoying when working with stl files
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:52 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Yes...
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:52 PM - Aaron Mitchell: STL files are annoying to work with , in general
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:53 PM - Aaron Mitchell: I am trying to learn Simplify3D tonight...
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:53 PM - Aaron Mitchell: so...I know the feeling..
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:53 PM - jbigler1986: U will never look back
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:54 PM - Mike Glass: yea mostly use blender, but more efficient with SW with the 3d mouse.
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:54 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Blender is great for NURBS...but SW much better for parametric modeling...
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:54 PM - Mike Glass: now to figure wth is going on with the x axis switch
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:55 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Anyone know of a quick setup guide somewhere on the forum for Simplify3D...sort of like Mike's Cara Guide?
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:57 PM - Mike Glass: shit Y axis belt snapped
Jul 11, 2015 at 6:57 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Noooo..
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:00 PM - Mike Glass: Bracket broke, that holds the belt on the front screw, how the hell does that happen. poopy
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:01 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Id
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:01 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Stretched to the limits
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:04 PM - Mike Glass: little epoxy should fix it for now
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:04 PM - Aaron Mitchell: My robo came with a spare....
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:04 PM - Mike Glass: Really? when did you get yours?
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:05 PM - Aaron Mitchell: It was in the little ziplock bag with the uSD
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:05 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Last week
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:05 PM - Mike Glass: oh..lol
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:06 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Heh...guess it has been an issue
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:06 PM - Mike Glass: ive replace just about every part except that..lol
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:07 PM - Mike Glass: I got mine in December
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:07 PM - jbigler1986: I should print a few of those. Everyone seems to break them.
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:08 PM - Aaron Mitchell: I was going to get some NINJAflex and print some belts...
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:08 PM - jbigler1986: I have tons of spare parts. Whats a few more gonna hurt
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:09 PM - jbigler1986: Its rarely the belt itself that breaks. Just the bracket
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:09 PM - Mike Glass: just seems weird out of the blue it broke, Ive never touched the screw to tighten it.
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:10 PM - jbigler1986: U jinxed it earlier
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:11 PM - Mike Glass: I guess, like I said eh..but knocked on wood...
Jul 11, 2015 at 7:13 PM - jbigler1986: Gotta knock on an ultimaker
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:34 PM - daniel871: Printing the spool holder from that "beast" thread right now. Feels good to be printing again.
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:36 PM - daniel871: Mostly printing it thinking the current spool holder makes it too easy for some spools to bind on it if the ID has any gaps in it.
Jul 11, 2015 at 8:37 PM - daniel871: My Bronzefill spool has a hole in the ID that caught on one side of my current spool holder and caused the hob to strip. No clog or anything, just a failed print.

 

Jul 11, 2015 at 10:25 PM - Mike Kelly: forgot to post these:
Jul 11, 2015 at 10:26 PM - Mike Kelly:
Jul 11, 2015 at 10:26 PM - Mike Kelly:
Jul 11, 2015 at 10:55 PM - Mike Glass: looks good Mike
Jul 12, 2015 at 5:59 AM - donhuevo: so the new Repetier landed with a new Cura engine in tow and something called Repetier Server which I'm guessing will behave something like octoprint
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:25 AM - jbigler1986: morning
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:26 AM - jbigler1986: yeah i have tried to setup repetier server before
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:30 AM - jbigler1986: It askied for printer settings file. Which me and MK could not find
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:38 AM - donhuevo: I don't know about any printer settings file, but it did take me thru a wizard to set up and connect to my printer
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:46 AM - Bill Monroe: morning
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:46 AM - donhuevo: morning Bill
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:49 AM - Bill Monroe: i uninstalled rep soon after I installed it
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:50 AM - donhuevo: its been good to me for the most part.
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:50 AM - Bill Monroe: <= S3D weenie
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:51 AM - donhuevo: I waste a lot of time trying to design around not needing support.
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:51 AM - donhuevo: this weekend is a prime example
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:53 AM - Bill Monroe: once I jb'd my machine (pre shake and break), and discovered the insanely good results when using makerbot brand true blue filament, my machine evolved into a trouble and error free printing monster
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:54 AM - Bill Monroe: rarely need support.. bridging is insane, no hairs, no jams, no problems
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:58 AM - jbigler1986: Well when you old you tend to have no hair.
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:59 AM - Bill Monroe: really? i'll let you know when I get there
Jul 12, 2015 at 8:01 AM - jbigler1986: The airtripper extruder is really nice. Had to modify it to be able to mount it. Other than that i dont think im going to need to edit it at all
Jul 12, 2015 at 8:01 AM - donhuevo: but are you printing with it yet?
Jul 12, 2015 at 8:03 AM - jbigler1986: Not yet. I pretty much have figured out the failures on the current one. Not gonna have any of those issue on this one
Jul 12, 2015 at 8:03 AM - jbigler1986: I have printed 1 and assembled it with a non geared stepper. Looks really nice
Jul 12, 2015 at 8:04 AM - donhuevo: cool!
Jul 12, 2015 at 8:05 AM - jbigler1986: It just doesnt have an mounting points to mount it to my mounts. Just added a tab on each side at the bottom
Jul 12, 2015 at 8:05 AM - jbigler1986: So does repetier have the new cura added to it?
Jul 12, 2015 at 8:06 AM - donhuevo: it has a newer Cura engine. that's all I can tell you at this point. looks pretty much the same
Jul 12, 2015 at 8:07 AM - Mike Kelly: Morning
Jul 12, 2015 at 8:07 AM - donhuevo: morning Mike
Jul 12, 2015 at 8:07 AM - jbigler1986: Morning
Jul 12, 2015 at 8:11 AM - Mike Glass: Mornin
Jul 12, 2015 at 8:49 AM - Mike Kelly: I killed it
Jul 12, 2015 at 8:49 AM - donhuevo: I think it was the Mike & Mike tag team
Jul 12, 2015 at 8:52 AM - jbigler1986: I may need to make an adapter. Would need m3 bolts longer than 50mm. Which i dont think ace has
Jul 12, 2015 at 8:57 AM - Mike Kelly: For the airtripper?
Jul 12, 2015 at 8:58 AM - jbigler1986: Yeah. Might mount to the geared part. Havent checked
Jul 12, 2015 at 8:58 AM - Mike Kelly: That's why I liked the hercustruder. Mounts to either
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:01 AM - jbigler1986: Airtripper has some similar features.
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:02 AM - Mike Glass: hopefully my belt tentioner holds up on printing a new one.
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:02 AM - jbigler1986: May just drill holes to mount it to the geared stepper.
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:02 AM - jbigler1986: Just print slow. You used gorilla glue right?
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:04 AM - Mike Kelly: Yeah that does look really similar
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:04 AM - jbigler1986: https://www.damencnc.com/en/components/motors-and-drivers/motor-mounts/403 thinking something like this
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:07 AM - Mike Kelly: That's what don used for a while. I think I have a similar model somewhere
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:08 AM - Mike Glass: I might be something else wrong, the Y seems real jerky, even going slow
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:08 AM - Mike Glass: El fucko it broke
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:09 AM - jbigler1986: That would be awesome if you do MK. MG that sucks
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:10 AM - Mike Glass: half way through too..ugg
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:11 AM - donhuevo: what'd I use?
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:14 AM - Mike Glass: a dict
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:14 AM - jbigler1986: I hate you guys
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:14 AM - Mike Glass:
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:14 AM - donhuevo: ah go blow through a dict
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:15 AM - donhuevo: have I been able to walk away from the fat hooter's girl yet? How many weeks has it been?
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:16 AM - Mike Kelly: don how did you adapt from the ezstruder to the geared stepper
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:16 AM - jbigler1986: Just kick her out of ur house
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:17 AM - donhuevo: doesn't fit thru the door anymore
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:18 AM - Mike Kelly: bah where the hell did that adapter piece i made go
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:18 AM - Mike Kelly: i really need to improve my file organization
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:18 AM - Mike Glass: Hey are the stock robo parts made from abs?
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:19 AM - donhuevo: organized into oblivion
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:19 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah i think it's just straight abs
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:19 AM - Mike Kelly: might be an ABS/PC but i kinda doubt that
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:19 AM - Mike Glass: maybe I can abs weld this together.
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:20 AM - Mike Kelly: give it a try
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:20 AM - Mike Kelly: this is why i keep weldon 4 around
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:21 AM - Mike Glass: I have a glue gun, and printed some abs sticks awhile back
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:22 AM - Mike Kelly: wait... that's a thing?
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:22 AM - Mike Glass: What?
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:22 AM - jbigler1986: Don stop force feeding her
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:22 AM - Mike Kelly: using abs "sticks" in a hot glue gun
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:23 AM - Mike Glass: why not?
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:23 AM - Mike Kelly: i mean it makes sense just never considered it
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:23 AM - Mike Glass: just a hand held extruder
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:24 AM - Mike Glass: Well about to find out..lol
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:25 AM - jbigler1986: MK pm me that mount if you happen to find it. Gonna be away from the chat for a few
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:27 AM - Mike Kelly: ok
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:47 AM - Mike Glass: gun only goes to 190c so didnt work so well, pla works fine, its just a 14 watt. but think it worked good enough to weld the plastic
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:50 AM - donhuevo: my dad picked up some sort of plastic welder at Harbor Freight. Some of the welding sticks in the starter kit were abs
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:50 AM - Mike Glass: ugg. nope it just crumbled apart. any ideas.
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:50 AM - Mike Glass: this tensioner is unusable
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:51 AM - donhuevo: have any spare gt2?
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:51 AM - Mike Glass: yea
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:51 AM - donhuevo: maybe loop around the outside of the front bracket on the broken side?
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:52 AM - donhuevo: you really only need one screw to get tension
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:52 AM - donhuevo: might hold up long enough to print more? or there's always 3dhubs
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:52 AM - Mike Glass: maybe a wire tie could work
Jul 12, 2015 at 9:53 AM - donhuevo: ya! wire tie loop around the bracket then loop the belt around the wire tie! good thinking!!!
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:00 AM - Mike Kelly: zip ties man
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:02 AM - Mike Glass: now the back one will probably break..lol
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:04 AM - Mike Kelly: my printed ones have never been replaced
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:04 AM - Mike Glass: no wonder why the ship extra's with them now.
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:06 AM - Mike Kelly: that's a good idea
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:07 AM - donhuevo: remember how cheap the original z smooth rod brackets were? mine didn't survive shipping
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:08 AM - Mike Kelly: they're still pretty bad
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:08 AM - donhuevo: they could adapt mine to a single rod I'm thinking
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:10 AM - Mike Kelly: don how did you adapt from the ezstruder to the geared stepper?
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:11 AM - donhuevo: there was some stupid little printed adapter plate if I remember right
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:11 AM - Mike Kelly: happen to remember if you made it or downloaded it?

 

Jul 12, 2015 at 10:11 AM - donhuevo: thingiverse
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:11 AM - donhuevo: downloaded
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:11 AM - donhuevo: and you pointed me to it
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:11 AM - donhuevo: it's always your fault
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:12 AM - Mike Kelly: i take blame
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:12 AM - Mike Kelly: maybe i shouldn't advise jb to use it then
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:13 AM - donhuevo: it wasn't horrible and worked but I got fed up with having to hold that spring compressed during loading among other things
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:13 AM - Mike Kelly: for sure
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:13 AM - donhuevo: my new setup works great but it's built around some oddball hardware including the trinity labs hob
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:14 AM - Mike Kelly: http://happyplace.someecards.com/celebrities/bryan-cranston-albuquerque-your-mom-kid-comic-con/
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:14 AM - Mike Kelly: micdrop
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:14 AM - donhuevo: it would most likely need redone around stuff you can actually buy now
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:15 AM - Mike Kelly: probably take me less time to modify the one i already made
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:20 AM - jbigler1986: Back
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:27 AM - Mike Kelly: jb do you have flat head m3's
Jul 12, 2015 at 10:27 AM - jbigler1986: Yep. I have tons of m3s

Jul 12, 2015 at 11:08 AM - Mike Glass: Thanks MK, that fits stock carriage?
Jul 12, 2015 at 11:09 AM - Mike Kelly: yup it should be near identical to what they're doing
Jul 12, 2015 at 11:09 AM - Mike Kelly: i'm gonna try printing it
Jul 12, 2015 at 11:09 AM - Mike Glass: how thick does it need to be, not sure the stuff I have is quite that thick, might have to double it up
Jul 12, 2015 at 11:09 AM - Mike Kelly: 5mm is what they used
Jul 12, 2015 at 11:10 AM - Mike Glass: ok will measure this.
Jul 12, 2015 at 11:11 AM - Mike Glass: hah 2.5 mm so two it is.
Jul 12, 2015 at 11:11 AM - Mike Kelly: lol
Jul 12, 2015 at 11:12 AM - Mike Glass: what side is the thumb pull on?
Jul 12, 2015 at 11:12 AM - jbigler1986: Thanks MK

Jul 12, 2015 at 11:14 AM - Mike Kelly: no they're for weight reduction
Jul 12, 2015 at 11:14 AM - Mike Kelly: there's a different revision with a slot instead of a hole
Jul 12, 2015 at 11:16 AM - Mike Glass: gotcha, does this raise up the hotend at all?
Jul 12, 2015 at 11:16 AM - Mike Glass: re-think, guess it wouldnt as it just replacing the gregs right
Jul 12, 2015 at 11:19 AM - Mike Kelly: might actually lower it
Jul 12, 2015 at 11:20 AM - Mike Kelly: by i think 1mm
Jul 12, 2015 at 11:20 AM - Mike Glass: gonna lose 5mm height though,, oh no..lol
Jul 12, 2015 at 11:20 AM - Mike Kelly: lol
Jul 12, 2015 at 11:20 AM - Mike Kelly: true
Jul 12, 2015 at 11:21 AM - Mike Glass: that one print I did took it within a few mm of the top, exactly 9 inches. that was fun..
Jul 12, 2015 at 12:06 PM - jbigler1986: Had to check belts and lube all rods.
Jul 12, 2015 at 12:07 PM - donhuevo: jb, I accidentally made you something...
Jul 12, 2015 at 12:08 PM - jbigler1986: Wtf is that
Jul 12, 2015 at 12:10 PM - donhuevo: the negative of this...
Jul 12, 2015 at 12:10 PM - donhuevo: or the male
Jul 12, 2015 at 12:13 PM - Mike Glass: lol
Jul 12, 2015 at 12:53 PM - Stephen Capistron: How has everyone been?
Jul 12, 2015 at 12:56 PM - Mike Glass: bean good
Jul 12, 2015 at 12:57 PM - Mike Glass: you?
Jul 12, 2015 at 12:59 PM - Stephen Capistron: Not too bad
Jul 12, 2015 at 12:59 PM - Stephen Capistron: being unemployed is agreeing with me
Jul 12, 2015 at 1:02 PM - jbigler1986: Lol. Thats a good thing
Jul 12, 2015 at 1:04 PM - Stephen Capistron: ikr
Jul 12, 2015 at 1:06 PM - donhuevo: trying out this justpla green. I didn't think it said transluscent but maybe it did
Jul 12, 2015 at 1:07 PM - donhuevo: I'm gonna save the gunmetal MG until after you get yours
Jul 12, 2015 at 1:08 PM - Stephen Capistron: http://www.justpla.com/filament/175mm?page=3
Jul 12, 2015 at 1:08 PM - Stephen Capistron: They make one of each
Jul 12, 2015 at 1:09 PM - Stephen Capistron: You very well have ordered regular, but got shipped translucent
Jul 12, 2015 at 1:11 PM - donhuevo: just prototyping today anyway. testing two birds with one stone
Jul 12, 2015 at 1:12 PM - Stephen Capistron: working on your dict to cool the heat sink
Jul 12, 2015 at 1:12 PM - donhuevo: I am. printing the new carriage as it stands now. Still more work to do but, I need it in my hand
Jul 12, 2015 at 1:13 PM - Stephen Capistron: understandable
Jul 12, 2015 at 1:13 PM - donhuevo: if anyone is interested... http://www.ustream.tv/channel/donhuevo-s-robo3d
Jul 12, 2015 at 1:14 PM - Stephen Capistron: This Gorilla superglue is way better than the krazy stuff
Jul 12, 2015 at 1:15 PM - donhuevo: never tried it but now I'll have to
Jul 12, 2015 at 1:17 PM - Mike Glass: Don they cancelled my order on the gunmetal for me
Jul 12, 2015 at 1:17 PM - donhuevo: those dictish bastards
Jul 12, 2015 at 1:18 PM - Stephen Capistron: had I realized how viscous it is I would have used more like a weld bead instead of between the things i was glueing
Jul 12, 2015 at 1:22 PM - donhuevo: does it compare to the krazy glue gel?
Jul 12, 2015 at 1:23 PM - Stephen Capistron: can't say i've used their gel
Jul 12, 2015 at 1:29 PM - donhuevo: my green is definitely translucent
Jul 12, 2015 at 1:51 PM - jbigler1986: Thay sucks.
Jul 12, 2015 at 1:52 PM - donhuevo: dunno. may be a good reason to print a squinty with an led inside
Jul 12, 2015 at 1:53 PM - donhuevo: so far it seems to be printing nice.
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:26 PM - Mike Kelly: mike or stephen or anyone that does wood working, how do you propose i make this cut
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:29 PM - Mike Glass: Miter saw
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:29 PM - Mike Glass: then put them together the cop the square ends off
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:30 PM - Mike Glass: you goint to bisquit join them?
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:31 PM - Mike Kelly: i think so
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:31 PM - Mike Kelly: do you remember the design?
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:32 PM - Mike Glass: goes on a 4x4 right
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:33 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah a # shape
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:33 PM - Mike Kelly:
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:33 PM - Mike Kelly:
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:34 PM - Mike Glass: your not going to have alot of weight on it are you?
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:34 PM - Mike Kelly: na just drinks
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:34 PM - Mike Kelly: i'm trying to decide how to join the top and the bottom
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:34 PM - Mike Kelly: maybe just glue?
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:35 PM - Mike Glass: I like to use pocket holes
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:36 PM - Mike Kelly: hmm yeah that'll work
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:36 PM - Mike Glass: do you have a kreg
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:36 PM - Stephen Capistron: Pocket holes Are great
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:37 PM - Mike Glass: or a pocket drill
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:38 PM - Mike Glass: or you could just use dowels for the top and then glue. if you have a dowling kit
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:38 PM - Mike Kelly: i actually just got one
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:39 PM - Mike Kelly: i lack a drill press at the moment

 

Jul 12, 2015 at 2:39 PM - Mike Glass: shouldnt need it really
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:39 PM - Mike Kelly: ok
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:40 PM - Mike Glass: do you have down centers?
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:40 PM - donhuevo: I need a favor from a solidworks guru
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:40 PM - Mike Glass: dowl centers
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:41 PM - Mike Kelly: sup don
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:41 PM - Mike Glass: thought you didnt use SW
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:41 PM - Mike Kelly: not familiar with a down centers...
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:42 PM - Mike Glass: dowl
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:42 PM - Mike Glass: dowel..lol
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:42 PM - donhuevo: my issues with squinty http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:28469 I'd love to turn him permanently into a cup instead of printing zero infill
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:43 PM - Mike Kelly: were you able to actually open that stl in solidworks with surfaces?
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:43 PM - Mike Glass: I would use blender for that, sw would be a nightmare.
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:43 PM - donhuevo: it's open but I don't know what the hell I'm doing
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:44 PM - jbigler1986: Lol
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:44 PM - Mike Kelly: i figure an stl that complex would get imported as a graphics body and you can't manipulate that
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:45 PM - donhuevo: yep, I had to do it as a graphics body
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:45 PM - Mike Glass: it would take a month to import with surfaces
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:45 PM - Mike Glass: if you had the memory
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:45 PM - donhuevo: I tried it as a solid body first and it failed
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:45 PM - donhuevo: I remember shit
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:46 PM - Mike Glass: lol
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:46 PM - Mike Glass: dict
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:46 PM - donhuevo: yep, not EVER forgetting that
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:47 PM - Mike Glass: I can try to pull it into blender and see what happens
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:47 PM - donhuevo: so blender gives you the ability to take the surface and thicken it inward?
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:47 PM - Mike Glass: where on the head to you want it cut off.
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:48 PM - donhuevo: 75mm up
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:48 PM - donhuevo: should cut him about here...
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:48 PM - Mike Glass: blender is awesome at stl's but its still a pain
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:49 PM - Mike Glass: how many oz to you want it to be..lol
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:49 PM - donhuevo: haha
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:49 PM - donhuevo: maybe 3mm thick base and walls?
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:49 PM - donhuevo: 2mm even?
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:49 PM - Mike Glass: you gonna us abs then?
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:50 PM - donhuevo: ummmmm...
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:50 PM - donhuevo: do I have to?
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:50 PM - Mike Glass: it will make you feel better
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:51 PM - Mike Kelly: then vapor polish it ftw
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:51 PM - Mike Glass: I will look in few min Don, im in the shop, trying to figure out how to cut this part MK gave me on the cnc.
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:52 PM - donhuevo: no rush. not even a little.
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:53 PM - Mike Glass: stoopid software not likeing the recess for the hotend
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:53 PM - Mike Kelly: mike think I could make that cut with a table saw
Jul 12, 2015 at 2:58 PM - Mike Glass: do you have some kind of angle jig
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:06 PM - donhuevo:
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:06 PM - jbigler1986: Finally got a kitchen scale
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:07 PM - donhuevo: congrats!
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:10 PM - bamhm182: Hey guys
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:11 PM - donhuevo: hey bam
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:11 PM - bamhm182: I finally used my kitchen scale for kitchen things yesterday. Up until then, it was just used for 3d printing stuff
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:12 PM - bamhm182: Had to measure hamburger for these heart attacks
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:13 PM - bamhm182: Also, finally got around to getting my Robo 3D back to stock and getting it to print something. The extruder is still skipping a bit here and there, but it's the closest to working that it has been for a while
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:13 PM - donhuevo: those burgers are art
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:17 PM - bamhm182: Right? Haha, they were so good. We stuffed them with cheese, red/green bell pepper, onions, and pulled pork. They were fantastic
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:19 PM - Mike Glass: Bacon
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:23 PM - bamhm182: Hey MG
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:23 PM - bamhm182: You ever find enough people to order those Z-Axis upgrades?
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:29 PM - jbigler1986: I just got bowden going yesterday after 2 weeks of failures
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:32 PM - Mike Glass: how yat doing, actually robo will be sending out info tomorrow if your on the list.
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:33 PM - bamhm182: Nice, how's it going, jb?
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:33 PM - bamhm182: What did we have to do to get on the list?
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:35 PM - jbigler1986: Just be active i believe. No really sure. I didnt want them
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:35 PM - bamhm182: Gotcha
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:36 PM - Mike Glass: I messaged harry
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:36 PM - donhuevo: I still don't think I heard the introductory price
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:36 PM - Mike Glass: so do that
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:36 PM - Mike Glass: $50
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:36 PM - donhuevo: for the pair?
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:36 PM - Mike Glass: yup
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:36 PM - donhuevo: holy crap!
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:36 PM - Mike Glass: I will believe when I see it
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:37 PM - donhuevo: I can't not buy a pair at that price
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:38 PM - jbigler1986: Yeah that's a hell of a deal.
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:38 PM - jbigler1986: Thats the kind of price you get when you buy a ton of them
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:39 PM - Seshan: is that motors too?
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:39 PM - donhuevo: they're integrated
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:39 PM - jbigler1986: Pretty sure its the whole kit
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:39 PM - donhuevo: so yes
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:40 PM - Mike Glass: only costing $20 more for the new robo, so they get them fairly cheap.
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:41 PM - Mike Kelly: Very rough dry fit
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:42 PM - Stephen Capistron: One thing I see wrong
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:42 PM - Mike Glass: no beer?
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:42 PM - Stephen Capistron: Bingo
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:42 PM - Mike Glass: lol
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:42 PM - jbigler1986: More like 6 things wrong at least
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:43 PM - bamhm182: Haha
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:43 PM - bamhm182: Looks good, MG
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:44 PM - bamhm182: Or wait, *MK
Jul 12, 2015 at 3:52 PM - Mike Glass: thanks, I been working on it all day
Jul 12, 2015 at 4:00 PM - bamhm182: haha
Jul 12, 2015 at 4:01 PM - bamhm182: So I got a couple of 60mm fans that put off around 70 CFM. Kind of thinking about putting it under the RAMPS because can
Jul 12, 2015 at 4:09 PM - jbigler1986: Wouldnt hurt
Jul 12, 2015 at 4:10 PM - Mike Glass: yea I have a few from a server that will make a great hover machine..
Jul 12, 2015 at 4:10 PM - jbigler1986: What bowden issues were you having?
Jul 12, 2015 at 4:14 PM - bamhm182: I was just talking about that last night, MG. Haha
Jul 12, 2015 at 4:15 PM - Mike Kelly: we're staining the supports right now
Jul 12, 2015 at 4:15 PM - Mike Kelly: the table part will need some more work once i start fitting it some more
Jul 12, 2015 at 4:15 PM - bamhm182: I hooked it up to my printer and turned it so the air was blowing towards the table and was tossing it around like an Air Hockey puck,
Jul 12, 2015 at 4:16 PM - bamhm182: Are you asking me, jb?
Jul 12, 2015 at 4:16 PM - bamhm182: Most of my issues recently came from the idea to mess with the stepper drivers

 

Jul 12, 2015 at 4:17 PM - jbigler1986: U were using gregs wade right?
Jul 12, 2015 at 4:18 PM - bamhm182: I got the stepper driver turned up too high for the extruder one time and it warped my extruder, so I tried to go back to stock, but the nozzle was clogged and the stepper drivers were still way off, so it wasn't working at all, then I just quit messing with it for a month or so
Jul 12, 2015 at 4:18 PM - bamhm182: Yeah, when I eventually give it another go, I'm still planning on using the greg's wade idea, but I need to print out a new one
Jul 12, 2015 at 4:18 PM - bamhm182: By the way, MK, how are those extruders working for you, and what were they called, again?
Jul 12, 2015 at 4:22 PM - jbigler1986: I wouldnt use gregs wade
Jul 12, 2015 at 4:23 PM - jbigler1986: It grinds the the filament during retraction
Jul 12, 2015 at 4:29 PM - jbigler1986: I have spent close to 3 weeks working on it. Like 5 different types of drive gears, geared steppers, non geared. Like 4 different extruder designs. Its been a project
Jul 12, 2015 at 4:32 PM - donhuevo: R&D
Jul 12, 2015 at 4:33 PM - donhuevo: R&D/crack
Jul 12, 2015 at 4:36 PM - jbigler1986: Meth. All the way bro
Jul 12, 2015 at 4:38 PM - donhuevo: the kitchen scale will come in handy
Jul 12, 2015 at 5:32 PM - jbigler1986: Oh yeah. Lol
Jul 12, 2015 at 5:37 PM - Mike Glass:
Jul 12, 2015 at 5:38 PM - donhuevo: hell yeah!
Jul 12, 2015 at 5:41 PM - Mike Glass: what about a handle
Jul 12, 2015 at 5:42 PM - donhuevo: totally unnecessary
Jul 12, 2015 at 5:42 PM - donhuevo: that's perfect!
Jul 12, 2015 at 5:42 PM - Mike Glass: ok let me upload it
Jul 12, 2015 at 5:45 PM - Mike Glass: https://www.dropbox.com/s/2h4sdljfti2jobb/squinty face2.stl?dl=0
Jul 12, 2015 at 5:46 PM - donhuevo: I owe you Mike
Jul 12, 2015 at 5:47 PM - Mike Glass: it was actually fairly easy, I bombed out with blender, ended up using meshmixer.
Jul 12, 2015 at 5:48 PM - donhuevo: basically thicken the surface?
Jul 12, 2015 at 5:49 PM - donhuevo: or was it the melon baller tool?
Jul 12, 2015 at 5:54 PM - Mike Glass: just make hallow then slice
Jul 12, 2015 at 5:54 PM - Mike Glass: hollow
Jul 12, 2015 at 5:55 PM - donhuevo: so no scooping him out like a pumpkin
Jul 12, 2015 at 5:57 PM - Mike Glass: nope. not sure how you adjust the thickness must depend on the size of the object.
Jul 12, 2015 at 5:58 PM - donhuevo: it picked a reasonable thickness. Can't wait to print one
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:04 PM - Mike Glass: im printing it at half size now
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:05 PM - donhuevo: shot glass
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:05 PM - Mike Glass: lol, maybe close
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:27 PM - Mike Glass:
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:28 PM - Mike Glass: .25 layer Height
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:29 PM - daniel871: Before I try designing them myself and printing them, has anyone made any Printinz Zebra Plate clips for the Robo?
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:30 PM - donhuevo: Mike, about right for a shot?
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:31 PM - daniel871: Currently have some small black paper clips with the arms removed, but the hoop bits scrub the pillow block screws while printing and make a fairly squeaky noise when they do it.
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:34 PM - Mike Glass: Not quite about another 7-10 mm more on the top, it would of fit.
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:34 PM - Mike Glass: cha cha chia pet..lol
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:35 PM - donhuevo: maybe a nice little cactus
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:36 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Hey guys... o/
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:37 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Can anyone here help me with a Simplify3D issue?
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:37 PM - Mike Glass: yo Aaron
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:37 PM - Mike Glass: try
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:38 PM - Aaron Mitchell: When I am starting a model the first couple of layers are running at a speed of nearly 400mm/s...the rest of the model shows a normal speed of 30-60 mm/s in the preview...any one know where this setting is?
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:38 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Looks like layers 2-5
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:39 PM - Mike Glass: 400?
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:39 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Yeah...let me post a picture for you
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:40 PM - Mike Glass: take a shoot at the other settings tab one the profile you using.
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:41 PM - Aaron Mitchell: http://imgur.com/4PbUdot
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:45 PM - Aaron Mitchell:
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:46 PM - Aaron Mitchell: THere is the speed settings...let me know if you need to see something else, Mike
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:46 PM - Aaron Mitchell:
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:46 PM - donhuevo: outline underspeed 610%?
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:47 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Well....shit...
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:47 PM - Aaron Mitchell: good catch...only overlooked that 10 times...but the out line doesn't account for the layers 2-5 does it?
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:48 PM - donhuevo: maybe? change it to something reasonable, reslice and check the picture again
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:48 PM - Aaron Mitchell: doing that now...
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:48 PM - Mike Glass: lol
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:49 PM - Mike Glass: default is 90%
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:49 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Wow....Don...you are a bona fide freakin' genius...
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:50 PM - Aaron Mitchell: I knocked it down to 60% (my original intention) and the rest of the model is fine...I guess it takes a while to decelerate from 610mm/s!
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:50 PM - Mike Glass: Well he is in IT, I do hear they are geniuses.
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:50 PM - donhuevo: cool
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:50 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Looks good now...
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:50 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Anyone here not in IT?
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:51 PM - Aaron Mitchell:
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:51 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Thanks, fellas...gonna give it a shot
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:51 PM - Mike Glass: ok, good luck
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:51 PM - Aaron Mitchell: I need a new keyboard too...I always fat finger this low profile POS
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:52 PM - donhuevo: ham hands. it happens
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:52 PM - Aaron Mitchell: TWo kinds of arthritis don't help
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:53 PM - donhuevo: yep, the arthritis hasn't hit my hands yet. When it does, I'm fucked
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:53 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Any suggestions on the Automatic placement of support settings in Simplify (the whole reason I paid $150 for this!)
Jul 12, 2015 at 6:54 PM - donhuevo: I don't use it. Still getting by with repetier
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:08 PM - jbigler1986: Yeah outline i slow down. That helps the quality
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:10 PM - Mike Kelly: What are you struggling on with the support placement, aaron?
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:12 PM - bamhm182: jb, what kind of design did you end up using on your bowden?
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:14 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Not struggling with anything Mike...I just dealt with the nightmare of supports on MatterControl and anted to know what settings work well and make for easy to remove supports...
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:14 PM - Aaron Mitchell: I must say, Simplify3D's slicing engine is FAAAAST! compared to Slic3r or Cura
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:14 PM - Aaron Mitchell: It matches the speed of my Stratasys slicer
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:18 PM - jbigler1986: Went with this as the base bam
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:18 PM - jbigler1986: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:260334
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:19 PM - jbigler1986: Then modified it to mount on my mounts and made filament guides inside on the top and bottom
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:20 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Bigs...what sort of printer are you building/designing?
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:21 PM - jbigler1986:
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:22 PM - bamhm182: So you just took that and made it bowden? Because it looks like it's direct drive there
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:22 PM - jbigler1986: Most direct drives will work bowden
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:22 PM - bamhm182: Oh, alright, cool.
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:23 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Nice...
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:23 PM - bamhm182: I like how it's above the spool, most that I've seen are under the spool
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:23 PM - bamhm182: Seems more compact
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:23 PM - bamhm182: So it has been printing pretty well for you, JB?
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:27 PM - bamhm182: So I tried to have it print out some taller feet while I was at the movies, and came back to this
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:27 PM - bamhm182:
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:27 PM - jbigler1986: Yeah. Been printing at 110mm/s
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:27 PM - bamhm182: On then plus side, the printer itself looked like it was going along strong, it just didn't have any filament
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:29 PM - bamhm182: Sweet, gives me hope to try again, haha
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:32 PM - jbigler1986: Yeah i have failures figured out now
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:40 PM - Aaron Mitchell:
Jul 12, 2015 at 7:40 PM - Aaron Mitchell: Simplify did a great job for my first test print...First layer is sooo much better than MC
