    Jul 23, 2015 8:00 AM - Mike Glass: gonna say looks like it was too hot
    Jul 23, 2015 8:01 AM - Mike Kelly: 195
    Jul 23, 2015 8:01 AM - Mike Glass: did you adjust the heat in the slicer to lower once it gets to the top?
    Jul 23, 2015 8:02 AM - Mike Kelly: i have first layer do 210 then it goes to 195 for the rest
    Jul 23, 2015 8:03 AM - Mike Glass: I would lower it on the tip of the wings, it will get a sharper edge
    Jul 23, 2015 8:07 AM - Mike Kelly: the tips are pretty good tbh
    Jul 23, 2015 8:08 AM - Mike Glass: oh the orange yea..lol
    Jul 23, 2015 8:09 AM - Mike Kelly:
    Jul 23, 2015 8:09 AM - Mike Glass: its just streaming your picture..lol
    Jul 23, 2015 8:10 AM - Mike Kelly: wtf is wrong with it

    Jul 23, 2015 8:11 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah i guess
    Jul 23, 2015 8:13 AM - Mike Kelly: i feel like the lifecam isn't living up to the quality i expected
    Jul 23, 2015 8:13 AM - Mike Glass: damn blue light though
    Jul 23, 2015 8:14 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah
    Jul 23, 2015 8:14 AM - Mike Glass: that makes a huge difference
    Jul 23, 2015 8:15 AM - Mike Kelly: i should really install different LED's
    Jul 23, 2015 8:17 AM - Mike Glass: are the R1Plus going to have white leds?
    Jul 23, 2015 8:17 AM - Mike Kelly: i believe so yes
    Jul 23, 2015 8:18 AM - Mike Glass: The blue is cool looking, but at least use color changing ones or a switch to change between blue and white.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:18 AM - Mike Kelly: that would be nice
    Jul 23, 2015 8:20 AM - Mike Kelly: i have a spare set from ikea i'm considering just throwing in
    Jul 23, 2015 8:20 AM - Mike Kelly: but i asked jerry first
    Jul 23, 2015 8:22 AM - Mike Kelly:

    Jul 23, 2015 8:27 AM - jbigler1986: oh yeah. 50 cals
    Jul 23, 2015 8:31 AM - Mike Kelly: i still think that it should be legal to mark cars that do stupid things
    Jul 23, 2015 8:32 AM - Mike Kelly: that way you know what idiots to look out for
    Jul 23, 2015 8:32 AM - jbigler1986: lol. yes
    Jul 23, 2015 8:33 AM - Mike Kelly: i kinda want to print something on the 2x
    Jul 23, 2015 8:33 AM - Mike Kelly: not sure what though
    Jul 23, 2015 8:35 AM - daniel871: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:196060
    Jul 23, 2015 8:35 AM - daniel871: Print that.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:35 AM - jbigler1986: you mean you want to "TRY" to print something on the 2x
    Jul 23, 2015 8:36 AM - daniel871: Depends on how many hours he has on that print head, right?
    Jul 23, 2015 8:41 AM - Mike Kelly: it's been pretty consistent since i put on the oiler
    Jul 23, 2015 8:41 AM - WheresWaldo: Hey everyone.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:43 AM - daniel871: I'm thinking BenMac isn't going to buy anything at all.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:44 AM - WheresWaldo: Hey jb, it was just lazy posting when I posted about quiet fans
    Jul 23, 2015 8:44 AM - Mike Kelly: people who hem and haw that much tend not to
    Jul 23, 2015 8:44 AM - Mike Kelly: he'll probably buy a davinci or something stupid
    Jul 23, 2015 8:44 AM - WheresWaldo: Dan, at least not until 2016
    Jul 23, 2015 8:45 AM - jbigler1986: hey now. i just ordered a davinci. dont hate
    Jul 23, 2015 8:45 AM - WheresWaldo: Maybe he'll buy two printers at once.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:45 AM - Mike Kelly: i will literally ban you
    Jul 23, 2015 8:45 AM - Mike Glass: haha
    Jul 23, 2015 8:45 AM - jbigler1986: lol
    Jul 23, 2015 8:46 AM - WheresWaldo: Honestly, BenMac could be testing the community.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:47 AM - daniel871: I think he should get the M3D and play with it before going into buying a bigger printer.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:47 AM - WheresWaldo: I was on this board before I actually bought my Robo, to see what kind of people were here.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:47 AM - WheresWaldo: Jury is still out :lol:
    Jul 23, 2015 8:48 AM - daniel871: Someone suggest the Wanhao Duplicator 4S in the Flashforge thread. They're both Makerbot knock-offs.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:49 AM - daniel871: (That are better than the thing they copy, but still)
    Jul 23, 2015 8:49 AM - daniel871: Oo, or the Leapfrog Creatr HS.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:50 AM - WheresWaldo: Isn't the Microcenter printer a copy of Flashforge thats a copy of a Makerbot.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:50 AM - daniel871: Yes.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:50 AM - daniel871: If I'm thinking of the same one.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:50 AM - daniel871: It's basically a Flashforge without the Flashforge logos on it.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:51 AM - Mike Kelly: there are so many replicator clones on the market it's insane
    Jul 23, 2015 8:51 AM - WheresWaldo: and black
    Jul 23, 2015 8:51 AM - Mike Kelly: monoprice has one as well
    Jul 23, 2015 8:51 AM - WheresWaldo: So I'm thinking I need a second printer ...
    Jul 23, 2015 8:51 AM - daniel871: That Flex3D website doesn't have a price on it, unless I'm missing it, MK
    Jul 23, 2015 8:52 AM - daniel871: Get the M3D and let everyone else know if it's any good, Waldo.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:52 AM - Mike Kelly: haha
    Jul 23, 2015 8:52 AM - daniel871: You'll only be out $350.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:52 AM - Mike Kelly: back the BigBox
    Jul 23, 2015 8:52 AM - daniel871: $390 if you buy the spare parts pack with it.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:52 AM - Mike Kelly: printed solid is trying to convince me to back it
    Jul 23, 2015 8:52 AM - jbigler1986: yeah i do like that little guy
    Jul 23, 2015 8:52 AM - WheresWaldo: Maybe I should wait for the R2
    Jul 23, 2015 8:53 AM - daniel871: How much money we talking on the BigBox?
    Jul 23, 2015 8:53 AM - jbigler1986: like $900
    Jul 23, 2015 8:53 AM - daniel871: Which one JB?
    Jul 23, 2015 8:53 AM - jbigler1986: m3d
    Jul 23, 2015 8:53 AM - WheresWaldo: Prices for Flex3d http://mutley3d.com/Buy-Flex3Drive/
    Jul 23, 2015 8:53 AM - daniel871: No, Waldo. The complete Core XY printer.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:54 AM - Mike Kelly: are you considering the flex 3d?
    Jul 23, 2015 8:54 AM - Mike Kelly: i'd love to see someone do that
    Jul 23, 2015 8:54 AM - WheresWaldo: Ahh
    Jul 23, 2015 8:55 AM - daniel871: Frax3D, sorry.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:55 AM - daniel871: Sheesh.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:56 AM - jbigler1986: so much wasted space in there
    Jul 23, 2015 8:57 AM - daniel871: Enough room to put the spools inside, really.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:57 AM - daniel871: Well, maybe not quite.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:58 AM - daniel871: One on either side, but may collide with the extruder carriage if it got close to the edges of the build plate.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:58 AM - daniel871: http://frax3d.com/
    Jul 23, 2015 8:58 AM - WheresWaldo: So I just finished reading their product page, what is so special?
    Jul 23, 2015 8:59 AM - daniel871: Nothing, was just saying it's hard to figure out whether it's worth looking at without a price.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:59 AM - Mike Glass: thats the one I posted from thingiverse this morning. looked interesting
    Jul 23, 2015 9:00 AM - daniel871: The M3D is the special one. Build plate is completely stationary and it looks like it'd be a fun toy printer.
    Jul 23, 2015 9:00 AM - daniel871: More interesting than the Tiko at any rate.

    Jul 23, 2015 9:00 AM - Mike Kelly: prints faster too
    Jul 23, 2015 9:00 AM - daniel871: Basically a cube printer that acts like a Delta.
    Jul 23, 2015 9:01 AM - daniel871: http://printm3d.com/
    Jul 23, 2015 9:01 AM - jbigler1986: yeah i really like it
    Jul 23, 2015 9:01 AM - WheresWaldo: Think I'm pretty much going to try to build either a Eustathios or Herculien
    Jul 23, 2015 9:01 AM - jbigler1986: can you use open source slicer?
    Jul 23, 2015 9:01 AM - Mike Kelly: http://www.deltabots.com/ depends on the delta :)
    Jul 23, 2015 9:02 AM - Mike Kelly: waldo you totally should
    Jul 23, 2015 9:02 AM - daniel871: I think they say you have to use their slicer, but that isn't any different than the Tiko.
    Jul 23, 2015 9:02 AM - WheresWaldo: Which? I am debating the need for such a big build area of the Herculien.
    Jul 23, 2015 9:02 AM - daniel871: Looking through the FAQ now.
    Jul 23, 2015 9:03 AM - daniel871: Will the printer support Cura or any other open source programs? Yes, the printer will support and use open source software. Please keep in mind that The M3D software is compatible with standard 3D models like STL, and OBJ.
    Jul 23, 2015 9:03 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah the herculien is probably overkill for most everyone, i really like the eustathios spider v2 that eric came up with
    Jul 23, 2015 9:03 AM - Mike Kelly: Daid was really pissed at M3D for ripping off cura
    Jul 23, 2015 9:04 AM - WheresWaldo: I have been following the Google+ group, and have been impressed by what I have seen.
    Jul 23, 2015 9:04 AM - Mike Kelly: they tookt he open source code and removed all cura brandin and rebranded it
    Jul 23, 2015 9:04 AM - Mike Kelly: with no credit to cura or daid
    Jul 23, 2015 9:04 AM - jbigler1986: thats shitty
    Jul 23, 2015 9:05 AM - Mike Kelly: yup
    Jul 23, 2015 9:05 AM - WheresWaldo: Shitty indeed.
    Jul 23, 2015 9:05 AM - daniel871: You could always go for a Craftbot to use with the Craftware slicer.
    Jul 23, 2015 9:06 AM - daniel871: No wait, that's $1,100
    Jul 23, 2015 9:06 AM - Mike Kelly: i wonder if that guy ever sold his herculien kit
    Jul 23, 2015 9:06 AM - Mike Kelly: STRINGY
    Jul 23, 2015 9:06 AM - daniel871: FnLOL, the Craftbot website says the regular Craftbot has been discontinued, buy a CraftBot PLUS instead.
    Jul 23, 2015 9:06 AM - Mike Glass: M3d is no different the XYZ , looks like you have to buy their filament
    Jul 23, 2015 9:07 AM - Mike Kelly: i should depreme test this filament i guess
    Jul 23, 2015 9:07 AM - jbigler1986: m3d you can use any filament
    Jul 23, 2015 9:08 AM - jbigler1986: there little ones are just if you want to install it inside the printer
    Jul 23, 2015 9:08 AM - daniel871: Yeah, was just reading that.
    Jul 23, 2015 9:09 AM - Mike Glass: hm the bowden goes under the printer though
    Jul 23, 2015 9:09 AM - daniel871: They only say they don't recommend woodfills or metal fillers because they can clog the nozzle.
    Jul 23, 2015 9:09 AM - daniel871: Ninjaflex and pretty much everything else is good to go though.
    Jul 23, 2015 9:10 AM - Mike Glass: A full size roll woudnt fit under it, would it?
    Jul 23, 2015 9:11 AM - Stephen Capistron: Craftware isn't a terrible slicer
    Jul 23, 2015 9:12 AM - daniel871: It claims 1/2 lb rolls can fit inside and "standard spools are also supported".
    Jul 23, 2015 9:12 AM - Mike Glass: lol 4.6" for height no thanks
    Jul 23, 2015 9:13 AM - daniel871: Far cheaper than the Makerbot that has the same print area.
    Jul 23, 2015 9:13 AM - Mike Kelly: if i was getting a mini printer i'd go with the printrbot play
    Jul 23, 2015 9:13 AM - Mike Kelly: i feel like you could bludgeon someone to death with that thing then print them a tiny headstone
    Jul 23, 2015 9:14 AM - Mike Glass: My friend just got the 349 kossell
    Jul 23, 2015 9:16 AM - Mike Kelly: i really want a delta to play with
    Jul 23, 2015 9:16 AM - Mike Kelly: maybe i should make richraps
    Jul 23, 2015 9:17 AM - daniel871: When is the Tiko shipping again?
    Jul 23, 2015 9:17 AM - Mike Kelly: HAH
    Jul 23, 2015 9:17 AM - Mike Kelly: http://community.robo3d.com/index.php?threads/print-estimated-time-off-by-nearly-30.6326/
    Jul 23, 2015 9:17 AM - daniel871: :p
    Jul 23, 2015 9:17 AM - Mike Kelly: anyone got any thoughts on that
    Jul 23, 2015 9:18 AM - jbigler1986: s3d is always off
    Jul 23, 2015 9:18 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah
    Jul 23, 2015 9:20 AM - daniel871: There aren't any real acceleration settings you can mess with on the frontend of S3D.
    Jul 23, 2015 9:20 AM - jbigler1986: wtf is this printer http://www.frys.com/product/8407108?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG
    Jul 23, 2015 9:20 AM - daniel871: You can do movement speed targets, but not the acceleration they get there at.
    Jul 23, 2015 9:21 AM - Mike Kelly: didn't robox also do a kickstarter
    Jul 23, 2015 9:21 AM - jbigler1986: no clue
    Jul 23, 2015 9:22 AM - jbigler1986: http://www.frys.com/product/7725148?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG
    Jul 23, 2015 9:22 AM - Mike Glass: JB that is a chopped robo. like how they chop cars, its a low rider..lol
    Jul 23, 2015 9:22 AM - Mike Kelly: XY beds are so weird to me
    Jul 23, 2015 9:22 AM - jbigler1986: since i upgrade the hell out of it anyways
    Jul 23, 2015 9:22 AM - daniel871: Also that one uses cartridges.
    Jul 23, 2015 9:23 AM - daniel871: The second one JB linked.
    Jul 23, 2015 9:23 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah robox is kinda shitty
    Jul 23, 2015 9:23 AM - Mike Glass: thats too much for that Velleman.
    Jul 23, 2015 9:23 AM - Mike Glass: should be like 299
    Jul 23, 2015 9:24 AM - daniel871: Is Frankn the one that posted the panicked "ready to give up" thread the other week?
    Jul 23, 2015 9:25 AM - Mike Kelly: nope
    Jul 23, 2015 9:25 AM - Mike Kelly: he's the one that always includes pictures of wheat and stuff
    Jul 23, 2015 9:26 AM - daniel871: Welp, time to go get some lunch.
    Jul 23, 2015 9:28 AM - Stephen Capistron: He uses that to ward off those with gluten allergies / celliacs
    Jul 23, 2015 9:30 AM - Stephen Capistron: http://folgertech.com/products/folger-tech-kossel-2020-full-3d-printer-kit
    Jul 23, 2015 9:31 AM - Mike Kelly: lol
    Jul 23, 2015 9:31 AM - Stephen Capistron: If you want a delta to mess with that is the best option
    Jul 23, 2015 9:31 AM - Mike Kelly: yup that one looks fun
    Jul 23, 2015 9:31 AM - Mike Glass: Yep thats the one he just ordered
    Jul 23, 2015 9:32 AM - jbigler1986: yeah i may do that one
    Jul 23, 2015 9:32 AM - Stephen Capistron: Biggest challenge is cutting the carbon rods
    Jul 23, 2015 9:36 AM - WheresWaldo: Not really, I make golf clubs as a hobby and cutting carbon fiber rods is actually pretty easy.
    Jul 23, 2015 9:36 AM - WheresWaldo: or tubes for that matter
    Jul 23, 2015 9:37 AM - WheresWaldo: It all the carcinogenic dust that is the challenge.
    Jul 23, 2015 9:37 AM - Stephen Capistron: The hard part is making them all the same length and the right length
    Jul 23, 2015 9:38 AM - Mike Kelly: just cutting them to be exactly the same length
    Jul 23, 2015 9:38 AM - WheresWaldo: That's what jigs are for
    Jul 23, 2015 9:38 AM - Mike Glass: get jiggy with it
    Jul 23, 2015 9:39 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah but then you gotta make a jig :)
    Jul 23, 2015 9:39 AM - WheresWaldo: MacGyver it.
    Jul 23, 2015 9:41 AM - daniel871: You could always get one of these, they claim no cutting is needed. https://www.matterhackers.com/store/printer-kits/seemecnc-rostock-max-v2-3d-printer-kit-complete-kit
    Jul 23, 2015 9:42 AM - jbigler1986: $900 though
    Jul 23, 2015 9:43 AM - Mike Kelly: poor choice of links
    Jul 23, 2015 9:43 AM - Mike Kelly: i really like the rostock max
    Jul 23, 2015 9:44 AM - WheresWaldo: So other than the fascination of watching the head move around for the first two prints, what is the advantage of a delta.
    Jul 23, 2015 9:44 AM - Mike Kelly: they can print at like 300mm/s because of the low weight carriage
    Jul 23, 2015 9:44 AM - WheresWaldo: Ahh speed
    Jul 23, 2015 9:44 AM - Mike Kelly: they're also hypnotizing
    Jul 23, 2015 9:45 AM - WheresWaldo: Maybe you've discovered Huey Lewis' New Drug.
    Jul 23, 2015 10:01 AM - Mike Kelly: god dammit i hate the aria dragon
    Jul 23, 2015 10:01 AM - Mike Kelly: the freaking wing broke off
    Jul 23, 2015 10:09 AM - jbigler1986: yeah my kids broke one off of mine
    Jul 23, 2015 10:15 AM - bamhm182: Hey all
    Jul 23, 2015 10:16 AM - jbigler1986: hola

    Jul 23, 2015 10:17 AM - jbigler1986: vote time. if i get my printer back do you guys want your money back or tell me something to use it on
    Jul 23, 2015 10:17 AM - bamhm182: I tried printing a Charizard for a board game, but its wings and arms all snapped off
    Jul 23, 2015 10:18 AM - Mike Glass: delaminaton is a beyatch
    Jul 23, 2015 10:18 AM - bamhm182: It sounds like you can use the money right now and while my debt surpasses my cash, I'm good
    Jul 23, 2015 10:19 AM - jbigler1986: it will be spent on 3d printer stuff only
    Jul 23, 2015 10:19 AM - Mike Glass: maybe a gen2 DG..lol
    Jul 23, 2015 10:20 AM - jbigler1986: lol
    Jul 23, 2015 10:21 AM - jbigler1986: money is still cuming in from the current one
    Jul 23, 2015 10:21 AM - bamhm182: Trying to think of what awesomeness you could add to your printer for $200
    Jul 23, 2015 10:22 AM - Mike Glass: aluminum riser plate would be killer
    Jul 23, 2015 10:28 AM - daniel871: $200 of filament.
    Jul 23, 2015 10:30 AM - Mike Kelly: cyclops/chimera
    Jul 23, 2015 10:32 AM - jbigler1986: I thought you hated those
    Jul 23, 2015 10:33 AM - Mike Kelly: nope
    Jul 23, 2015 10:36 AM - bamhm182: If I recall, it was Bill that hated those
    Jul 23, 2015 10:37 AM - bamhm182: You ever get yours working well, MK?
    Jul 23, 2015 10:39 AM - Mike Kelly: yup
    Jul 23, 2015 10:39 AM - Mike Kelly: only issue i have right now is unrelated
    Jul 23, 2015 10:39 AM - Mike Kelly: need to get a better heatsink arrangement for them
    Jul 23, 2015 10:39 AM - Mike Glass: so the bontech issue is cleared up?
    Jul 23, 2015 10:41 AM - Mike Kelly: the issue is my motors get too hot and then skip steps
    Jul 23, 2015 10:42 AM - Mike Kelly: i printed the 2 color frog and the bowden extruder that was being cooled did great, but the direct feed that wasn't came out crap
    Jul 23, 2015 10:42 AM - Mike Kelly: so it's pretty clear that they need to be cooler
    Jul 23, 2015 10:42 AM - jbigler1986: voltage?
    Jul 23, 2015 10:42 AM - Mike Kelly: too high :)
    Jul 23, 2015 10:42 AM - jbigler1986: mine was overheating as well
    Jul 23, 2015 10:42 AM - Mike Kelly: i'm considering moving to 24v for the steppers and extruder heaters
    Jul 23, 2015 10:43 AM - jbigler1986: new stepper drivers helped too
    Jul 23, 2015 10:43 AM - Mike Kelly: and then adding a heatsink to the direct
    Jul 23, 2015 10:43 AM - Mike Kelly: but i'm gonna go to the 8mm drive shaft geared stepper i bought
    Jul 23, 2015 10:43 AM - jbigler1986: beast mode
    Jul 23, 2015 10:43 AM - Mike Kelly: so i don't have to worry about my spacers causing issues
    Jul 23, 2015 10:44 AM - jbigler1986: i didn't even get to print with the 8mm drive shaft one i just bought
    Jul 23, 2015 10:44 AM - jbigler1986: got it all ready then hell broke loose
    Jul 23, 2015 10:45 AM - Mike Kelly: that's super lame
    Jul 23, 2015 10:46 AM - bamhm182: Did you guys see that I figured out my issues with the stepper drivers?
    Jul 23, 2015 10:46 AM - daniel871: Were they both hercustruders, jb?
    Jul 23, 2015 10:46 AM - Mike Kelly: the 1/32?
    Jul 23, 2015 10:46 AM - bamhm182: Yeah
    Jul 23, 2015 10:47 AM - bamhm182: I had the direction of the pots backwards
    Jul 23, 2015 10:47 AM - jbigler1986: they were yes
    Jul 23, 2015 10:47 AM - bamhm182: So the whole time I was overvolting them, then slowly turning them down until they worked and wondering why I was having heat issues
    Jul 23, 2015 10:48 AM - jbigler1986: that sucks
    Jul 23, 2015 10:48 AM - jbigler1986: did you see how i had them setup bam?
    Jul 23, 2015 10:49 AM - bamhm182: On your fundme page?
    Jul 23, 2015 10:49 AM - jbigler1986: yeah
    Jul 23, 2015 10:51 AM - bamhm182: Yeah
    Jul 23, 2015 10:52 AM - bamhm182: Looked pretty sweet
    Jul 23, 2015 10:58 AM - bamhm182: By the way, this guy came on last night and had a weird issue. He would set his printer up for PLA and it would print the first layer and then stop with M999 issues. If he set it up for ABS, with a higher temp, it would work fine
    Jul 23, 2015 10:58 AM - bamhm182: His thermistor broke and be had to replace it, then those issues started. Any thoughts as to why it would be doing that?
    Jul 23, 2015 10:58 AM - Mike Kelly: Might be cold extrusion
    Jul 23, 2015 10:58 AM - Mike Kelly: What temp was he printing ay
    Jul 23, 2015 11:00 AM - bamhm182: Not 100% sure, he said he tried a few slicers, one of them being simplify 3d, which defaults to 195 for PLA
    Jul 23, 2015 11:00 AM - jbigler1986: temp reading probably isnt acurrate. then when fans come on it cools the heat block to much with pla.
    Jul 23, 2015 11:00 AM - jbigler1986: since temp is higher with abs it wouldn't fail like that
    Jul 23, 2015 11:03 AM - Mike Kelly: he should update his firmware
    Jul 23, 2015 11:03 AM - Mike Kelly: might also be a loose thermistor but that seems less likely if it works with ABS
    Jul 23, 2015 11:03 AM - bamhm182: Is there a newer firmware than the R1V2?
    Jul 23, 2015 11:03 AM - Mike Kelly: R1V3 yes
    Jul 23, 2015 11:04 AM - bamhm182: MG said it was on the website, but I couldn't find it
    Jul 23, 2015 11:04 AM - Mike Kelly: help.robo3dprinter.com
    Jul 23, 2015 11:04 AM - bamhm182: Awesome, thanks! I need to update my firmware as well
    Jul 23, 2015 11:05 AM - Mike Kelly: there's not a whole lot of changes to it
    Jul 23, 2015 11:05 AM - jbigler1986: http://download.robo3d.com/firmware/R1/ROBO3DR1V3_06_11_2015.zip
    Jul 23, 2015 11:05 AM - Mike Kelly: just some temp adjustments
    Jul 23, 2015 11:05 AM - Mike Kelly: apparently if you google FEA the image search is quite weird
    Jul 23, 2015 11:05 AM - jbigler1986: their wording for it sucks
    Jul 23, 2015 11:06 AM - bamhm182: Haha
    Jul 23, 2015 11:07 AM - bamhm182: I think that fea is ugly woman in spanish
    Jul 23, 2015 11:07 AM - bamhm182: Yup
    Jul 23, 2015 11:08 AM - jbigler1986: "Arduino Files For Firmware Customization"
    Jul 23, 2015 11:08 AM - jbigler1986: that's going to confuse the hell out of noobs
    Jul 23, 2015 11:09 AM - bamhm182: How so?
    Jul 23, 2015 11:09 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah that was really poor word choice
    Jul 23, 2015 11:09 AM - Mike Kelly: took me far too long to figure out what it meant
    Jul 23, 2015 11:10 AM - jbigler1986: thats the wording for the v3 firmware
    Jul 23, 2015 11:11 AM - jbigler1986: then its not on the firmware page but the release notes
    Jul 23, 2015 11:11 AM - bamhm182: Yeah, but I think most people should be able to figure it out
    Jul 23, 2015 11:11 AM - jbigler1986: http://help.robo3d.com/Wiki/ROBO_3D_Firmware_Release_Notes
    Jul 23, 2015 11:12 AM - bamhm182: I mean, it could just say "Firmware Files" or something, but I think most people that are looking to upgrade their firmware should be able to understand it
    Jul 23, 2015 11:13 AM - bamhm182: I was going to send that guy a PM with this information, but I can't for the life of me remember what his username was
    Jul 23, 2015 11:14 AM - bamhm182: Found him. He showed up in the Profile Posts part of the forum
    Jul 23, 2015 11:14 AM - donhuevo: back finally...
    Jul 23, 2015 11:14 AM - bamhm182: welcome back
    Jul 23, 2015 11:15 AM - donhuevo: thanks
    Jul 23, 2015 11:21 AM - WheresWaldo: I'm back, afternoon everyone.
    Jul 23, 2015 11:22 AM - donhuevo: hey Waldo
    Jul 23, 2015 11:22 AM - Bill Monroe: WW
    Jul 23, 2015 11:23 AM - WheresWaldo: Did you guys see Axislabs issue with the new lead screws?
    Jul 23, 2015 11:24 AM - Mike Kelly: no?
    Jul 23, 2015 11:24 AM - Mike Kelly: i figured out that the wing fell off because a layer under extruded
    Jul 23, 2015 11:24 AM - WheresWaldo: Never seen anything like that, he posted in Mods
    Jul 23, 2015 11:26 AM - Mike Kelly: that's what happened to me at first
    Jul 23, 2015 11:27 AM - bamhm182: The ribbing?
    Jul 23, 2015 11:28 AM - Mike Kelly: yup
    Jul 23, 2015 11:28 AM - donhuevo: has to be a bent rod
    Jul 23, 2015 11:29 AM - donhuevo: bet those ribs are spaced exactly 2mm
    Jul 23, 2015 11:29 AM - donhuevo: or 4mm
    Jul 23, 2015 11:29 AM - donhuevo: whatever the rod's pitch is

    Jul 23, 2015 11:29 AM - Mike Kelly: yes it is
    Jul 23, 2015 11:29 AM - Mike Kelly: not necessarily the rod being bent but rather it was assembled incorrectly
    Jul 23, 2015 11:29 AM - Mike Kelly: https://www.dropbox.com/s/iawrtykdib7x4jo/00051.MTS?dl=0

    Jul 23, 2015 11:32 AM - bamhm182: So your rods were straight then?
    Jul 23, 2015 11:32 AM - Mike Kelly: yes
    Jul 23, 2015 11:32 AM - donhuevo: your motor was bent
    Jul 23, 2015 11:33 AM - Mike Kelly: this is square against the base: http://i.imgur.com/Alcbhb6.jpg
    Jul 23, 2015 11:33 AM - bamhm182: Have you reassembled to and got them to work?
    Jul 23, 2015 11:33 AM - Mike Kelly: i bought 4 so i had 2 good
    Jul 23, 2015 11:33 AM - Mike Kelly: returning the others to robo for returns
    Jul 23, 2015 11:33 AM - bamhm182: Gotcha
    Jul 23, 2015 11:34 AM - bamhm182: I need to decide what I'm doing with my Robo
    Jul 23, 2015 11:35 AM - bamhm182: I think first thing's first, I need to do a long print to make sure it's currently working
    Jul 23, 2015 11:35 AM - bamhm182: And since I need to do that, might as well stream it, so I think the next thing I'm going to print is a pegboard mount for my Kinect
    Jul 23, 2015 11:37 AM - Mike Kelly: http://imgur.com/gallery/jEXAxz3
    Jul 23, 2015 11:40 AM - bamhm182: That's awesome
    Jul 23, 2015 11:40 AM - Mike Kelly: so they're having a going away lunch for the people they let go (yeah makes no sense) and they chose the WORST mexican place in the city
    Jul 23, 2015 11:41 AM - Mike Kelly: which is unironically named "Jose O'Sheas"
    Jul 23, 2015 11:41 AM - Mike Kelly: because all those irish mexicans...
    Jul 23, 2015 11:44 AM - bamhm182: lmao
    Jul 23, 2015 11:44 AM - Mike Glass: I think they spend more on packaging then they do on the actual part. [​IMG]
    Jul 23, 2015 11:45 AM - WheresWaldo: Yeah Noctua does like to show off their stuff in their packaging.
    Jul 23, 2015 11:46 AM - Mike Glass: new fan for the ps
    Jul 23, 2015 11:48 AM - Mike Kelly: geez
    Jul 23, 2015 11:48 AM - Mike Kelly: teach robo a thing or 2
    Jul 23, 2015 11:48 AM - toy: nice fan!
    Jul 23, 2015 11:50 AM - bamhm182: That's what I thought every time I'd get a fan made by them
    Jul 23, 2015 11:50 AM - bamhm182: They are pretty great fans though
    Jul 23, 2015 11:51 AM - bamhm182: How does the fan replacement go? You able to just swap it, or is there soldering involved?
    Jul 23, 2015 11:52 AM - toy: shame noctua doesnt make a squirrel cage type blower
    Jul 23, 2015 11:52 AM - bamhm182: Yeah
    Jul 23, 2015 11:52 AM - toy: time to write them =)
    Jul 23, 2015 11:55 AM - Mike Kelly: it's always funny when people bump threads from like a year ago
    Jul 23, 2015 11:57 AM - Mike Kelly:
    my god
    Jul 23, 2015 11:59 AM - bamhm182: Wow
    Jul 23, 2015 11:59 AM - Mike Kelly: now that I have the R1.7 working, no idea what to make
    Jul 23, 2015 11:59 AM - bamhm182: Kind of reminded me of the burgers I made last week

    Jul 23, 2015 12:00 PM - Mike Glass: I will let you know tonight bam, now that I have the fan I will do the lead screws also.
    Jul 23, 2015 12:00 PM - toy: ok i sent a email to noctua telling them i want radial fans
    Jul 23, 2015 12:00 PM - daniel871: I'm sure they'll get right on that.
    Jul 23, 2015 12:01 PM - bamhm182: Hahaha
    Jul 23, 2015 12:01 PM - toy: i told them about the huge untapped potential market in 3d printing for high quality radial fans lol
    Jul 23, 2015 12:02 PM - Mike Glass: now im hungry, thanks MK
    Jul 23, 2015 12:03 PM - Mike Kelly: ok i popped open my psu
    Jul 23, 2015 12:03 PM - bamhm182: Yeah, I was just thinking that, but nothing sounds good... I'm thinking maybe I'll go to this mexican restaurant "nearby"
    Jul 23, 2015 12:03 PM - Mike Glass: and bam im comming over for dinner you make those burgers..lol
    Jul 23, 2015 12:03 PM - bamhm182: Haha, sounds like a plan
    Jul 23, 2015 12:03 PM - Mike Kelly: 60x11
    Jul 23, 2015 12:03 PM - Mike Kelly: it does have a connector
    Jul 23, 2015 12:03 PM - Mike Glass: hmm so 25mm not going to fit
    Jul 23, 2015 12:03 PM - Mike Glass: well fuck
    Jul 23, 2015 12:04 PM - bamhm182: Planning on going back to Colorado in August for my brother's birthday and was planning on making those. I don't know if I can have them three times within a month. I'll probably die
    Jul 23, 2015 12:04 PM - toy: watch out for the caps, mk
    Jul 23, 2015 12:05 PM - Mike Kelly: it's been discharged for like a month
    Jul 23, 2015 12:05 PM - Mike Kelly: and i am
    Jul 23, 2015 12:05 PM - toy: <--safety officer toy
    Jul 23, 2015 12:05 PM - Mike Kelly: [​IMG]
    Jul 23, 2015 12:07 PM - daniel871: Put that high dollar fan on the ramps, toss that PSU in the trash and get another one.
    Jul 23, 2015 12:07 PM - toy: stock robo power supply?
    Jul 23, 2015 12:07 PM - Mike Kelly: this was from my kickstarter robo
    Jul 23, 2015 12:08 PM - toy: have they changed over version?
    Jul 23, 2015 12:08 PM - Mike Kelly: no idea
    Jul 23, 2015 12:08 PM - Mike Kelly: i'd have to check
    Jul 23, 2015 12:08 PM - bamhm182: I could pop open mine to compare
    Jul 23, 2015 12:09 PM - Mike Kelly: if you shift the fan a bit towards the back i think a 25mm would fit
    Jul 23, 2015 12:09 PM - toy: i wouldnt buy any ps that wasnt a meanwell
    Jul 23, 2015 12:09 PM - Mike Kelly: has anyone ever tried turning up the vr1 pot to get a bit more voltage from the psu?
    Jul 23, 2015 12:10 PM - toy: like 13 volts ?
    Jul 23, 2015 12:10 PM - Mike Kelly: not sure how much range it has
    Jul 23, 2015 12:10 PM - Mike Kelly: i guess i do have a bunch of voltmeters floating around
    Jul 23, 2015 12:10 PM - toy: 5% maybe i would guess
    Jul 23, 2015 12:10 PM - Mike Glass: turn it up till ya see smoke
    Jul 23, 2015 12:11 PM - toy: dont burn out your 12 volt fans
    Jul 23, 2015 12:12 PM - toy: this is the ps i bought for my 2nd printer http://www.amazon.com/NES-350-12-Switching-Power-Supply-110-240/dp/B007K2H0GI
    Jul 23, 2015 12:13 PM - Mike Kelly: 15.3v
    Jul 23, 2015 12:13 PM - Mike Kelly: that's a lot more power you could be sending to the bed
    Jul 23, 2015 12:13 PM - toy: and to everything else that needs 12 volts
    Jul 23, 2015 12:14 PM - Mike Kelly: i think they'd all enjoy the added power
    Jul 23, 2015 12:14 PM - Mike Kelly: though i do worry about the fans...
    Jul 23, 2015 12:14 PM - toy: thermistor is 12 volts also
    Jul 23, 2015 12:14 PM - Mike Kelly: 5v actually,
    Jul 23, 2015 12:15 PM - Mike Kelly: http://reprap.org/mediawiki/images/f/f6/RAMPS1.4schematic.png
    Jul 23, 2015 12:15 PM - toy: i thought i saw on the e3d that they were 12v or 24v
    Jul 23, 2015 12:15 PM - Mike Kelly: VCC
    Jul 23, 2015 12:15 PM - Mike Kelly: those are the heater cartridges
    Jul 23, 2015 12:15 PM - bamhm182: [​IMG]
    Jul 23, 2015 12:15 PM - bamhm182: That's my PSU
    Jul 23, 2015 12:16 PM - bamhm182: It's different
    Jul 23, 2015 12:16 PM - Mike Kelly: i have some 24v cartridges for when i switch over
    Jul 23, 2015 12:16 PM - Mike Kelly: what's a webp
    Jul 23, 2015 12:16 PM - toy: lol im a wimp for not going 24 volts on my 2nd printer
    Jul 23, 2015 12:18 PM - bamhm182: Fan is 60x60x15
    Jul 23, 2015 12:18 PM - toy: or trying out the 1/32 steppers =\
    Jul 23, 2015 12:19 PM - donhuevo: our robo psu fan is 60x60x15?
    Jul 23, 2015 12:19 PM - toy: bahm was it you has the drv8828's?
    Jul 23, 2015 12:19 PM - Mike Glass: think I can squeeze an extra 10mm in there Bam?

    Jul 23, 2015 12:20 PM - bamhm182: Yeah, toy, I just swapped those in over the past couple days
    Jul 23, 2015 12:20 PM - toy: any noticeable diff?
    Jul 23, 2015 12:21 PM - Mike Kelly: bam got a different link for the picture?
    Jul 23, 2015 12:21 PM - bamhm182: I think it would be REALLY close, MG
    Jul 23, 2015 12:21 PM - Mike Glass: 8825 drivers are the 1/32, same on the cnc uses
    Jul 23, 2015 12:22 PM - bamhm182: I haven't printed enough with the 1/32s to be able to say
    Jul 23, 2015 12:22 PM - bamhm182: I've heard it makes little to no difference though
    Jul 23, 2015 12:22 PM - Mike Glass: maybe I will flip it around and take the bottom cover off and mount it on the out side of the psu.
    Jul 23, 2015 12:23 PM - toy: is your ps overheating or soemthing?
    Jul 23, 2015 12:23 PM - Mike Glass: No the fan is LOUDDDDD
    Jul 23, 2015 12:25 PM - donhuevo: the fact that the psu case has a 'grill' and so does the robo doesn't help with the air turbulence
    Jul 23, 2015 12:25 PM - bamhm182: So I have some feet that I printed that are 30mm tall if you include the part that aligns to the printer, 20mm if you don't
    Jul 23, 2015 12:26 PM - bamhm182: I put that on top of the highest component and the 20mm line is more or less flush with the top of the PSU
    Jul 23, 2015 12:26 PM - bamhm182: I'd say 20mm is the MAX

    Jul 23, 2015 12:27 PM - Mike Kelly: yup
    Jul 23, 2015 12:27 PM - Mike Kelly: bam, willing to test how high you can get vref on that thing?
    Jul 23, 2015 12:28 PM - Mike Glass: guess I will flip a bitch then.
    Jul 23, 2015 12:28 PM - Mike Kelly: anyone watch clone high?
    Jul 23, 2015 12:28 PM - daniel871: Never heard of it.
    Jul 23, 2015 12:28 PM - Mike Kelly: mtv show from the 90's
    Jul 23, 2015 12:28 PM - bamhm182: So did that first link not show the image for you guys?
    Jul 23, 2015 12:28 PM - bamhm182: Don't know what the vref is
    Jul 23, 2015 12:28 PM - Mike Kelly: it did not
    Jul 23, 2015 12:28 PM - donhuevo: I saw an image
    Jul 23, 2015 12:28 PM - Mike Kelly: *sigh* i guess i should go back to work
    Jul 23, 2015 12:28 PM - daniel871: I saw an image when I clicked it, but closed it and came back.
    Jul 23, 2015 12:29 PM - bamhm182: Weird
    Jul 23, 2015 12:29 PM - toy: episode 5 battlebots i almost forgot
    Jul 23, 2015 12:29 PM - toy: go ICEWAVE!!!
    Jul 23, 2015 12:30 PM - toy: battlebots activate!
    Jul 23, 2015 12:32 PM - bamhm182: I can't find any specs for the stock fan
    Jul 23, 2015 12:33 PM - bamhm182: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_ZMGg7zgQtGRTVGLV9ZUEdVVjQ/view?usp=sharing
    Jul 23, 2015 12:34 PM - bamhm182: http://www.ystech.com.tw/ysfan/products_detail.asp?id=37
    Jul 23, 2015 12:34 PM - bamhm182: Actually, I think it may be that one
    Jul 23, 2015 12:35 PM - bamhm182: Maybe not, similar though
    Jul 23, 2015 12:35 PM - toy: stinger vs bronco... taking bets.. my money is on bronco
    Jul 23, 2015 12:37 PM - bamhm182: http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail...8mcbdCMUjU0FzJ4rh1Cx1kkQcW8/jGzo7wj1mP7QwEA==
    Jul 23, 2015 12:37 PM - bamhm182: I think that would be a good replacement
    Jul 23, 2015 12:38 PM - toy: wow.... bronco almost flipped stinger out of the arena
    Jul 23, 2015 12:43 PM - bamhm182: It's kind of difficult to find a quiet and powerful 60x60x15 fan...
    Jul 23, 2015 12:44 PM - Mike Glass: http://www.amazon.com/Gdstime-Ultra...sbs_147_3?ie=UTF8&refRID=0QB7ZZQFMZ4N5S2WD5Q7
    Jul 23, 2015 12:44 PM - bamhm182: I saw that one
    Jul 23, 2015 12:46 PM - bamhm182: 26 dba isn't too loud, but I feel like it's still quite a bit louder than the noctura
    Jul 23, 2015 12:47 PM - bamhm182: Actually, it probably isn't that much louder
    Jul 23, 2015 12:47 PM - bamhm182: Looked up the specs on my 40mm fan and it's 17dba. You can't even hear that thing when the printer's going
    Jul 23, 2015 12:48 PM - Mike Glass: 19.3 for the one I have
    Jul 23, 2015 12:48 PM - bamhm182: I wonder how much air this current fan moves
    Jul 23, 2015 12:49 PM - bamhm182: I feel like the 13.8 CFM of the fan you linked should be fine
    Jul 23, 2015 12:49 PM - Mike Glass: this noctua is 29
    Jul 23, 2015 12:49 PM - bamhm182: Dang...
    Jul 23, 2015 12:50 PM - Mike Glass: I will make it work
    Jul 23, 2015 12:51 PM - Mike Glass: I will just flip it in the robo and take the bottom off, guess I need to print a ramps fan mount now..
    Jul 23, 2015 12:52 PM - Stephen Capistron: just move the whole PSU to outside the robo
    Jul 23, 2015 12:53 PM - Mike Glass: nope just gonna a flip it around
    Jul 23, 2015 12:53 PM - Mike Glass: then mount the fan on the outside of the psu case
    Jul 23, 2015 12:53 PM - bamhm182: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_ZMGg7zgQtGUUk2X0NKWFdrRHc/view?usp=sharing
    Jul 23, 2015 12:53 PM - bamhm182: Should work
    Jul 23, 2015 12:54 PM - Mike Glass: might have to print the 20mm feet
    Jul 23, 2015 12:54 PM - bamhm182: Alternatively, you could cut out a hole in the bottom
    Jul 23, 2015 12:54 PM - bamhm182: Yeah, wouldn't be a bad idea
    Jul 23, 2015 12:55 PM - Mike Glass: hmm yea cutting hole may work fine also
    Jul 23, 2015 12:55 PM - bamhm182: I think I'm going to get one and do the same
    Jul 23, 2015 12:55 PM - Mike Glass: put it on the cnc and have it make a grill out of the bottom
    Jul 23, 2015 12:56 PM - Mike Glass: This noctua was only $13
    Jul 23, 2015 12:57 PM - Mike Glass: I bet it would be 100x quieter with the fan pointing down and not up through the robo back
    Jul 23, 2015 12:58 PM - bamhm182: Maybe
    Jul 23, 2015 12:58 PM - Stephen Capistron: its all about the acoustics man
    Jul 23, 2015 12:58 PM - Mike Glass: yea you and your foam baffles
    Jul 23, 2015 12:59 PM - Mike Glass: All I know is I cant talk on the phone when im in my office and the robo is running, is so loud.
    Jul 23, 2015 1:00 PM - bamhm182: Really? It's that loud?
    Jul 23, 2015 1:01 PM - Mike Glass: yes, and it changes up and down and sometimes squeals, I have to hit it to make it behave.
    Jul 23, 2015 1:01 PM - bamhm182: My fan's loud enough that you can definitely tell when it kicks on, but it hasn't stopped me from talking on the phone
    Jul 23, 2015 1:01 PM - bamhm182: My worst fan is my hot end fan
    Jul 23, 2015 1:01 PM - Mike Glass: yea my 25mm is kinda loud too
    Jul 23, 2015 1:01 PM - bamhm182: I can't wait until I get around to printing out a new carriage that can support one of my 40mm noctuas
    Jul 23, 2015 1:02 PM - bamhm182: Anyways, bought one of those 60mm's. It'll get here on Monday. Make sure you keep us posted on your upgrades, MG
    Jul 23, 2015 1:02 PM - Mike Glass: that is the worst fan, supprised it has lasted this long
    Jul 23, 2015 1:02 PM - Mike Glass: did you get a noctua?
    Jul 23, 2015 1:03 PM - Mike Kelly: i hate software that can't update, has to install a new version and manually uninstall the old one
    Jul 23, 2015 1:04 PM - Mike Glass: ha they went up to $15 now,, damn
    Jul 23, 2015 1:04 PM - bamhm182: Yeah. Noticed there was one for $16 too
    Jul 23, 2015 1:04 PM - Mike Glass: ok Mike, can you make me something real fast..lol
    Jul 23, 2015 1:04 PM - Mike Kelly: whats up
    Jul 23, 2015 1:05 PM - bamhm182: I bought that first one that you linked, then I decided to say screw it and buy the 25mm noctua
    Jul 23, 2015 1:06 PM - Mike Glass: well I want to change out my z support rod holders, they have stress cracks, was thinking adding a mount to use the nema screws and also the smooth rod screws.
    Jul 23, 2015 1:06 PM - Mike Glass: and making the hole around the lead screws smaller so stuff doesnt fall down the hole
    Jul 23, 2015 1:09 PM - jbigler1986: Holes are always better smaller
    Jul 23, 2015 1:09 PM - Mike Glass: guess I could take the pattern from the middle plate and go off that.
    Jul 23, 2015 1:09 PM - Mike Glass: lol JB
    Jul 23, 2015 1:13 PM - Mike Kelly: http://i.imgur.com/qjcCLxX.jpg kinda like these mike?
    Jul 23, 2015 1:13 PM - Mike Kelly: http://i.imgur.com/LIUnCkN.jpg
    Jul 23, 2015 1:14 PM - Mike Kelly: https://www.dropbox.com/s/znzdtr64wqysd0x/Aluminum Middle Plate.PDF?dl=0 also this might be helpful if you make a new middle plate
    Jul 23, 2015 1:16 PM - Mike Glass: yea, put a plate on that covering the stepper hole so just the lead screw shows.
    Jul 23, 2015 1:17 PM - Mike Glass: yea I would love to have a plate like that.
    Jul 23, 2015 1:17 PM - Mike Glass: dont think my machine could do that though
    Jul 23, 2015 1:22 PM - Stephen Capistron: Your MPCNC could locate all the holes for you and then just finish them on the drill press no?
    Jul 23, 2015 1:23 PM - Stephen Capistron: Heh, do it the "old fashioned" way to and make a 2d drawing of the hole locations, zero off a corner and then G1 X... Y... | G1 Z-... F... | G1 Z+... And on and on
    Jul 23, 2015 1:24 PM - Mike Glass: yea I suppose, I dont really think my Jet drill press is that great though.

    Jul 23, 2015 1:24 PM - Stephen Capistron: None of the holes in the plate are tapped so they don't even have to be super straight
    Jul 23, 2015 1:25 PM - Mike Kelly: did you see how i support my z rods?
    Jul 23, 2015 1:26 PM - Mike Glass: we will see with the new cnc upgraded Z how it does on thicker metal.
    Jul 23, 2015 1:26 PM - Stephen Capistron: Can always peck away at it
    Jul 23, 2015 1:26 PM - Stephen Capistron: You really only need to make a small mark so the bigger drill bit doesn't walk all over on you
    Jul 23, 2015 1:28 PM - Mike Glass: yea it would be an 1/8 mill though, thats the smallest I have unless I use a v groove to just tap it.
    Jul 23, 2015 1:29 PM - Mike Glass: I like those that you have MK, guess I could just make a plate that goes over the hole.
    Jul 23, 2015 1:31 PM - Mike Kelly: i'm just gonna print 2 U's
    Jul 23, 2015 1:31 PM - Mike Kelly: i like that idea of covering those though
    Jul 23, 2015 1:31 PM - Mike Kelly: hate dropping screws in there
    Jul 23, 2015 1:31 PM - Stephen Capistron: 2 utes?
    Jul 23, 2015 1:31 PM - Mike Glass: lol
    Jul 23, 2015 1:32 PM - Mike Glass: what were they thinking, doh
    Jul 23, 2015 1:33 PM - bamhm182: Holy shit
    Jul 23, 2015 1:33 PM - bamhm182: What even happened?
    Jul 23, 2015 1:33 PM - Mike Kelly: jesus
    Jul 23, 2015 1:34 PM - Mike Glass: hit the fricken cable with the blade
    Jul 23, 2015 1:34 PM - Mike Glass: wrapped around and diced it in half
    Jul 23, 2015 1:35 PM - bamhm182: Oh yeah, I see it now
    Jul 23, 2015 1:35 PM - Mike Glass: hear the turbo wind down, damn
    Jul 23, 2015 1:39 PM - Mike Kelly: what were they even trying to do there
    Jul 23, 2015 1:39 PM - Stephen Capistron: make a christmas tree
    Jul 23, 2015 2:15 PM - Mike Kelly: oh cool the filament got tangled causing my print to fail, good thing the freaking skirt takes a half hour to print :mad:
    Jul 23, 2015 2:28 PM - bamhm182: Gotta love that
    Jul 23, 2015 2:29 PM - bamhm182: What is the service that you guys use to stream your printers again?
    Jul 23, 2015 2:30 PM - Stephen Capistron: [​IMG]
    Jul 23, 2015 2:31 PM - Stephen Capistron: Just whipped up a little platform bed for my hound so she is at proper ear scratch height while i'm in the basement next to my printer
    Jul 23, 2015 2:31 PM - bamhm182: Haha, nice
    Jul 23, 2015 2:31 PM - Stephen Capistron: they use ustram and some youtube live service
    Jul 23, 2015 2:31 PM - Stephen Capistron: not at the same time
    Jul 23, 2015 2:32 PM - Stephen Capistron: i think that is like crossing the streams
    Jul 23, 2015 2:32 PM - mark tomlinson: I use http://vaughnlive.tv/
    Jul 23, 2015 2:33 PM - mark tomlinson: I don't stream a lot, but they are easy/free
    Jul 23, 2015 2:33 PM - mark tomlinson: I stream internally all the time. Just not on the web
    Jul 23, 2015 2:33 PM - donhuevo: ustream would be another
    Jul 23, 2015 2:34 PM - donhuevo: mark would that be your inner monoloque?
    Jul 23, 2015 2:34 PM - bamhm182: sweet, thanks
    Jul 23, 2015 2:35 PM - bamhm182: Reinstalling OS X on my Mac Mini in the garage. Planning on hooking that up to my kinect to stream from time to time
    Jul 23, 2015 2:35 PM - mark tomlinson: WebCamXP (and no, I don't run it on windows xp) :)
    Jul 23, 2015 2:36 PM - mark tomlinson: Yea, sort of my own monologue :)
    Jul 23, 2015 2:36 PM - mark tomlinson: Streams all three web cams internally for free.
    Jul 23, 2015 2:37 PM - mark tomlinson: Then If I want one external I use the vaugnlive
    Jul 23, 2015 2:38 PM - bamhm182: It would be cool if I could get it set up to allow me to move my kinect
    Jul 23, 2015 2:40 PM - Mike Kelly: what 3 cameras are you using?
    Jul 23, 2015 2:40 PM - Mike Kelly: i want to make a robot arm for a camera holder
    Jul 23, 2015 2:41 PM - donhuevo: so the robo can take selfies
    Jul 23, 2015 2:41 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah i'm gonna do what curiosity does
    Jul 23, 2015 2:41 PM - bamhm182: Haha
    Jul 23, 2015 2:42 PM - bamhm182: I had made an arm for my gopro, it worked well but then I stopped using the gopro
    Jul 23, 2015 2:44 PM - mark tomlinson: 3 cheap USB cams from Frys or Amazon
    Jul 23, 2015 2:44 PM - mark tomlinson: $10-20 cheapies
    Jul 23, 2015 2:45 PM - mark tomlinson: The one from Frys is kind of nice since it has a zoom :) That is the expensive one (maybe 20 bucks)
    Jul 23, 2015 2:59 PM - Mike Kelly: What resolution?
    Jul 23, 2015 3:00 PM - Mike Kelly: man it is hot today, i don't remember how i handled 90+ degree weather
    Jul 23, 2015 3:03 PM - Mike Kelly: i wish i could buy one of the two drill presses that are just sitting around collecting paint dust
    Jul 23, 2015 3:04 PM - bamhm182: Thinking about getting a cheap drill and printing out some brackets to bolt it to this crappy office chair I have, then printing out some gears and turning the chair into a rotating platform. ThoughtS?
    Jul 23, 2015 3:05 PM - bamhm182: Could you ask if you could buy them?
    Jul 23, 2015 3:10 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah maybe, don't really have any money in my budget
    Jul 23, 2015 3:14 PM - Mike Kelly: for now if i ever wanted to i could borrow one
    Jul 23, 2015 3:17 PM - Mike Kelly: http://technabob.com/blog/2015/07/17/raspberry-pi-split-retro-console/ neat
    Jul 23, 2015 3:19 PM - AxisLab:
    Jul 23, 2015 3:20 PM - AxisLab: The new lead screws lol
    Jul 23, 2015 3:20 PM - bamhm182: Hooray!
    Jul 23, 2015 3:20 PM - bamhm182: Man, it looks like I really lucked out with mine
    Jul 23, 2015 3:20 PM - AxisLab: Or one "new" one, and one bent used one..
    Jul 23, 2015 3:21 PM - Mike Kelly: robo continues their trend of exceptional quality and quality control
    Jul 23, 2015 3:21 PM - bamhm182: That split console looks kinda cool
    Jul 23, 2015 3:21 PM - AxisLab: You can see how dirty it is compared to the right side one
    Jul 23, 2015 3:21 PM - bamhm182: I think I'm going to design my own raspberry pi console
    Jul 23, 2015 3:22 PM - Mike Kelly:
    Jul 23, 2015 3:22 PM - bamhm182: A lot of the ones that I've seen that I like the look of require you to physically modify your pi, and I don't want to do that
    Jul 23, 2015 3:23 PM - jbigler1986: Hey SC. Thanks
    Jul 23, 2015 3:26 PM - bamhm182: That video is so nerdy, haha
    Jul 23, 2015 3:27 PM - bamhm182:
    Jul 23, 2015 3:28 PM - bamhm182: Starting at 1:40 of that video, things get pretty nasty
    Jul 23, 2015 3:32 PM - Mike Kelly: aw gross man
    Jul 23, 2015 3:33 PM - bamhm182: Yeah
    Jul 23, 2015 3:33 PM - bamhm182: Remind me never to get near liquid nitrogen. Not worth it, haha
    Jul 23, 2015 3:35 PM - Mike Kelly: it's crazy stuff
    Jul 23, 2015 3:45 PM - Stephen Capistron: No problem man
    Jul 23, 2015 3:45 PM - Stephen Capistron: Ln2 is awesome. We used to mess around with it all the time
    Jul 23, 2015 3:45 PM - Stephen Capistron: Only thing we didn't do was the plastic bottle explosion
    Jul 23, 2015 3:46 PM - Stephen Capistron: Don't want any reports from the neighbors
    Jul 23, 2015 3:46 PM - bamhm182: So after having my computer do... something... for the past hour, I have no idea what it did...
    Jul 23, 2015 3:46 PM - Mike Kelly: are you using solidworks? that happens to me too
    Jul 23, 2015 3:47 PM - bamhm182: It looked like it was reinstalling the OS like I asked it to, but when it completed whatever it was doing, it booted back into the original installation with everything installed on it
    Jul 23, 2015 3:47 PM - bamhm182:
    Jul 23, 2015 3:47 PM - bamhm182: This person has such a tiny voice
    Jul 23, 2015 3:48 PM - Mike Kelly: https://plus.google.com/u/1/117184878828437001711/posts/ipuPZq3Z3bb?cfem=1 did i link this before?
    Jul 23, 2015 3:48 PM - Mike Kelly: like a dry ice bomb
    Jul 23, 2015 3:49 PM - bamhm182: Didn't realize it was a kid's show for a minute, I imagine she is faking her voice. Also, that was a massive explosion
    Jul 23, 2015 3:49 PM - bamhm182: I hadn't seen it
    Jul 23, 2015 3:49 PM - Mike Kelly: awesome explosion in deed
    Jul 23, 2015 3:49 PM - Mike Kelly: also hilarious
    Jul 23, 2015 3:50 PM - Mike Kelly: https://plus.google.com/u/1/photos/...6173230583868359202&oid=113742552391007694404 "so ooze shield, what would you say you DO around here"
    Jul 23, 2015 3:50 PM - bamhm182: "What in the... PHYSICS was that!?!" Haha
    Jul 23, 2015 3:50 PM - Mike Kelly: she says quantum physics which makes it even better
    Jul 23, 2015 3:51 PM - jbigler1986: That printer is tiny
    Jul 23, 2015 3:52 PM - bamhm182: I'm jealous
    Jul 23, 2015 3:52 PM - jbigler1986: Oh cosplay

    Jul 23, 2015 3:53 PM - bamhm182: I don't know what I'd do with all that build space, but I'd have to come up with something awesome
    Jul 23, 2015 3:53 PM - bamhm182: Haha, yeah, just print out a whole set of armor at once :p
    Jul 23, 2015 3:54 PM - Mike Kelly: whole chest piece
    Jul 23, 2015 3:55 PM - Stephen Capistron: How does the chest piece interface with the DG?
    Jul 23, 2015 3:56 PM - Mike Kelly: or in jb's case maybe a cod piece
    Jul 23, 2015 3:56 PM - bamhm182: Haha
    Jul 23, 2015 3:56 PM - Stephen Capistron: Be walking around like that cartoon Daniel posted yesterday
    Jul 23, 2015 3:58 PM - Mike Kelly: lol right?
    Jul 23, 2015 3:58 PM - jbigler1986: Hey now
    Jul 23, 2015 3:58 PM - donhuevo: cod pieces and capes are the next big thing
    Jul 23, 2015 3:59 PM - donhuevo: I think the cravat is making a comeback too
    Jul 23, 2015 4:03 PM - Mike Kelly: http://www.gadgetify.com/peri/ this thing is nicer than my bike
    Jul 23, 2015 4:06 PM - bamhm182: Pretty neat
    Jul 23, 2015 4:07 PM - bamhm182: My house came with some hooks in the garage. Tossed my bike on those and it's probably going to stay there indefinitely.
    Jul 23, 2015 4:07 PM - Stephen Capistron: Ha, 3d print it
    Jul 23, 2015 4:08 PM - Mike Glass: Hey mike do you have those Z stabilizers for share?

    Jul 23, 2015 4:17 PM - jbigler1986: Which is all i use
    Jul 23, 2015 4:18 PM - Mike Glass: but petg would be nice, since its getting cheaper.
    Jul 23, 2015 4:18 PM - jbigler1986: Comes with lcd.

    Jul 23, 2015 4:22 PM - Stephen Capistron: is there an echo in here?
    Jul 23, 2015 4:23 PM - Stephen Capistron: patience
    Jul 23, 2015 4:24 PM - jbigler1986: Lol. Would be easy to modify as well
    Jul 23, 2015 4:24 PM - Mike Glass: im not going to tear this apart till I print some z stabilizers
    Jul 23, 2015 4:24 PM - Mike Glass: guess will have to make some
    Jul 23, 2015 4:25 PM - bamhm182: I think I'm going to use a Teensy for the controller on my pi gaming setup
    Jul 23, 2015 4:26 PM - jbigler1986: Are you trying to do an all in type thing
    Jul 23, 2015 4:26 PM - bamhm182: Yeah
    Jul 23, 2015 4:27 PM - bamhm182: Just kinda going around looking for ideas at the moment
    Jul 23, 2015 4:27 PM - bamhm182: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:823648
    Jul 23, 2015 4:28 PM - bamhm182: I really like that one, but it requires that you desolder a few things from your raspberry pi and solder some things on. Ideally, I would like to avoid doing that
    Jul 23, 2015 4:28 PM - bamhm182: Also thinking it would be nice to have a panel I can take off and remove the raspberry pi without having to take the whole thing apart
    Jul 23, 2015 4:30 PM - bamhm182: I'm also thinking like maybe a 5 inch screen and would like to have all the buttons/sticks of a playstation controller since you can apparently run PS1 games on these guys
    Jul 23, 2015 4:30 PM - jbigler1986: I like to solder. Send it over.
    Jul 23, 2015 4:31 PM - jbigler1986: Damnit. Nevermind. No soldering iron
    Jul 23, 2015 4:31 PM - donhuevo: damnit
    Jul 23, 2015 4:31 PM - bamhm182: It's not that I don't like to solder, it's just that I would prefer not to alter my pi
    Jul 23, 2015 4:31 PM - jbigler1986: Forgot i have nothing at the moment
    Jul 23, 2015 4:31 PM - bamhm182: Yeeeeeeah...
    Jul 23, 2015 4:31 PM - jbigler1986: They are only 30 bucks. You can do it
    Jul 23, 2015 4:33 PM - bamhm182: Good point
    Jul 23, 2015 4:33 PM - bamhm182: Still though, think I'm going to do it myself
    Jul 23, 2015 4:33 PM - jbigler1986: Thats what i meant
    Jul 23, 2015 4:35 PM - bamhm182: No, I mean design the case myself
    Jul 23, 2015 4:36 PM - jbigler1986: Oh. Gotcha
    Jul 23, 2015 4:39 PM - bamhm182: Kind of thinking about getting another one of these 13000 mah battery packs and tossing that in there
    Jul 23, 2015 4:39 PM - bamhm182: Completely overkill, but it would NEVER die. Haha
    Jul 23, 2015 4:49 PM - bamhm182: Plus I could rig it up so it could charge my phone at the same time.
    Jul 23, 2015 4:56 PM - donhuevo: if anyone's curious, I'm still here. just been playing with my dict
    Jul 23, 2015 4:57 PM - bamhm182: You and your dict... I swear you're going to go blind
    Jul 23, 2015 4:57 PM - donhuevo: [​IMG]
    Jul 23, 2015 4:59 PM - bamhm182: Nice
    Jul 23, 2015 4:59 PM - jbigler1986: No wonder why you are quiet
    Jul 23, 2015 4:59 PM - donhuevo: I may have a prototype printed tonight and I'll be able to test the airflow
    Jul 23, 2015 5:06 PM - jbigler1986: Nice
    Jul 23, 2015 5:08 PM - daniel871: Hey, someone is asking if JB is some abusive husband or something referencing a bad link to a court case search.
    Jul 23, 2015 5:08 PM - daniel871: In the thread.
    Jul 23, 2015 5:08 PM - bamhm182: What?
    Jul 23, 2015 5:09 PM - bamhm182: Nevermind
    Jul 23, 2015 5:09 PM - Mike Kelly: Getting there... [​IMG]
    Jul 23, 2015 5:11 PM - Mike Kelly: Looks like whoever whedonfan04 is they're from Indianapolis
    Jul 23, 2015 5:13 PM - bamhm182: Looks nice, MK
    Jul 23, 2015 5:14 PM - jbigler1986: Hmmm
    Jul 23, 2015 5:14 PM - jbigler1986: Whats the join date MK
    Jul 23, 2015 5:15 PM - Mike Kelly: Thanks. The mitered corners are having difficulty squaring
    Jul 23, 2015 5:16 PM - jbigler1986: Yep. Pretty sure thats the one. Looking at the thread
    Jul 23, 2015 5:16 PM - Mike Kelly: Today
    Jul 23, 2015 5:17 PM - jbigler1986: Well that was easy enough to figure out. Lol
    Jul 23, 2015 5:23 PM - jbigler1986: MK that looks pretty good
    Jul 23, 2015 5:45 PM - Mike Kelly: thanks
    Jul 23, 2015 5:49 PM - donhuevo: firing up my dict generator
    Jul 23, 2015 5:51 PM - jbigler1986: Lol
    Jul 23, 2015 5:52 PM - bamhm182: As much as I would like to have the vita's analog sticks on this console, I'm thinking I'm going to go with the PSP-1000's
    Jul 23, 2015 5:53 PM - bamhm182: They're a LOT easier to solder and you get get 5 of them for $7, where as the vita's would be a bitch and a half and would end up costing about $15 each
    Jul 23, 2015 5:55 PM - donhuevo: sounds like you've already decided then
    Jul 23, 2015 5:55 PM - Mike Kelly: are you making a PiGRRL?
    Jul 23, 2015 5:56 PM - donhuevo: if you care to watch the dict grow... http://www.ustream.tv/channel/donhuevo-s-robo3d
    Jul 23, 2015 5:57 PM - bamhm182: Basically
    Jul 23, 2015 5:57 PM - daniel871: Test print about to start.
    Jul 23, 2015 5:57 PM - bamhm182: I am going to have it look similar to one of those DMG style gameboys
    Jul 23, 2015 5:58 PM - daniel871: Cleaned the Volcano out again, did the seasoning un-mounted from the carriage with the heater/fan/etc. connected and just held in a pair of pliers while heating/seasoning/etc.
    Jul 23, 2015 5:58 PM - bamhm182: Wow, that dict is going to be bigger than I thought it was (hur hur)
    Jul 23, 2015 5:58 PM - jbigler1986: I thought u were done with the volcano
    Jul 23, 2015 5:58 PM - bamhm182: Also designing it from "scratch"
    Jul 23, 2015 5:59 PM - bamhm182: Or at least I'm going to try to anyways
    Jul 23, 2015 6:00 PM - daniel871: Waiting on parts.
    Jul 23, 2015 6:01 PM - daniel871: And trying one more time.
    Jul 23, 2015 6:01 PM - daniel871: Because I don't have anything better to do this evening.
    Jul 23, 2015 6:02 PM - daniel871: Was running, but not sticking to the bed. Probably excess oil on the filament.
    Jul 23, 2015 6:03 PM - daniel871: So now I'm going to just send a bunch of filament through for about thirty seconds or so and try again.
    Jul 23, 2015 6:03 PM - donhuevo: fingers crossed daniel
    Jul 23, 2015 6:08 PM - daniel871: Also have the "oiler" on the line with just some cotton in it to dust the filament as it comes thru just to make sure that isn't the problem. Shouldn't need to add more oil for a while.
    Jul 23, 2015 6:10 PM - daniel871: Part of the problem, rather.
    Jul 23, 2015 6:15 PM - Mike Glass: That sure is a purdy dict Don.
    Jul 23, 2015 6:16 PM - donhuevo: awe shucks

    Jul 23, 2015 6:16 PM - Mike Glass: green eh, you going balistic on us
    Jul 23, 2015 6:17 PM - donhuevo: it's what was loaded
    Jul 23, 2015 6:17 PM - donhuevo: don't think it'll be the final color though
    Jul 23, 2015 6:17 PM - Mike Glass: I need to figure our the ductwork on the one I modified so I can get the light placements done.
    Jul 23, 2015 6:19 PM - donhuevo: how can I help?
    Jul 23, 2015 6:23 PM - daniel871: Okay, so far so good. Only a few layers down so far though.
    Jul 23, 2015 6:24 PM - daniel871: Fingers crossed and I'm going to go drink something to take the edge off.
    Jul 23, 2015 6:39 PM - jbigler1986: Don. Video stream is gone
    Jul 23, 2015 6:40 PM - donhuevo: it finished
    Jul 23, 2015 6:41 PM - bamhm182: That's how I decide most my colors too. Haha. I'll have something that needs to be a certain color, then I'll just keep using that color for a while. Right now it's green
    Jul 23, 2015 6:45 PM - donhuevo: they're bringing the fn X Files back
    Jul 23, 2015 6:46 PM - Mike Kelly: welcome to last month
    Jul 23, 2015 6:48 PM - donhuevo: thanks, it's great to be here.
    Jul 23, 2015 7:13 PM - donhuevo: won't know for sure til I'm printing with it but good airflow
    Jul 23, 2015 7:14 PM - Stephen Capistron: glad to hear your dict blows well
    Jul 23, 2015 7:15 PM - donhuevo: yep. I was worried it would suck
    Jul 23, 2015 7:16 PM - Mike Glass: yo yo donny
    Jul 23, 2015 7:17 PM - donhuevo: sup
    Jul 23, 2015 7:17 PM - Mike Glass: check it out [​IMG]
    Jul 23, 2015 7:18 PM - donhuevo: one proud dict there
    Jul 23, 2015 7:18 PM - donhuevo: or is it a new-fangled bong?
    Jul 23, 2015 7:18 PM - Mike Glass: haha no dict, but close, its a stiffner
    Jul 23, 2015 7:18 PM - donhuevo: a stiffie for what?
    Jul 23, 2015 7:19 PM - Mike Glass: for the new z rod upgrade and smooth z rods
    Jul 23, 2015 7:19 PM - daniel871: No support for the threaded rod?
    Jul 23, 2015 7:19 PM - donhuevo: oh... OH...
    Jul 23, 2015 7:19 PM - Mike Glass: covers that nasty hole
    Jul 23, 2015 7:19 PM - Mike Kelly: neat
    Jul 23, 2015 7:19 PM - donhuevo: what's the distance from threaded rod center to smooth rod center?
    Jul 23, 2015 7:20 PM - Mike Glass: printing a test now, see if it works
    Jul 23, 2015 7:20 PM - daniel871: Well, now the volcano is working like it should.
    Jul 23, 2015 7:21 PM - Stephen Capistron: 26.75mm center to center
    Jul 23, 2015 7:22 PM - daniel871: No retraction, seasoned and with a dry wipe at it is pulling off the spool.
    Jul 23, 2015 7:22 PM - donhuevo: it wouldn't take much to do this for a single smooth rod... [​IMG]
    Jul 23, 2015 7:23 PM - Mike Glass: 27.39
    Jul 23, 2015 7:23 PM - daniel871: What dragons other than the Aria should be printed?
    Jul 23, 2015 7:24 PM - Mike Glass: opps no 26.87
    Jul 23, 2015 7:24 PM - donhuevo: it's here if you need it. your stiffie looks substantial though
    Jul 23, 2015 7:24 PM - Stephen Capistron: are you measuring?
    Jul 23, 2015 7:24 PM - Mike Glass: it just sits over the screws for the stepper
    Jul 23, 2015 7:25 PM - Mike Glass: im just using the robo cad model
    Jul 23, 2015 7:25 PM - donhuevo: consider running the motor screws thru it
    Jul 23, 2015 7:25 PM - Stephen Capistron: i was using MKs version of that
    Jul 23, 2015 7:25 PM - Stephen Capistron: weird the numbers are off a touch
    Jul 23, 2015 7:26 PM - Mike Glass: yea its hard to line up on the model I have , should be close as it using the robo plate
    Jul 23, 2015 7:28 PM - Mike Kelly: my dimensions are based off the middle plate from their thingiverse
    Jul 23, 2015 7:35 PM - Mike Glass: thats the one I used just cut the middle plate and used it
    Jul 23, 2015 7:36 PM - Mike Glass: I fused tesseracts z stabilizers to it.
    Jul 23, 2015 7:38 PM - Mike Glass: yep 26.75 is what it should be
    Jul 23, 2015 7:41 PM - donhuevo: [​IMG]
    Jul 23, 2015 7:41 PM - Mike Glass: NICE!
    Jul 23, 2015 7:42 PM - Mike Glass: The wrench coolr
    Jul 23, 2015 7:42 PM - Stephen Capistron: Looks kind of like a mouth guard
    Jul 23, 2015 7:42 PM - Mike Glass: that too
    Jul 23, 2015 7:42 PM - donhuevo: haha
    Jul 23, 2015 7:48 PM - Mike Glass: ugg,,lol this thing is crooked, thats why my measurements where off.
    Jul 23, 2015 8:06 PM - Stephen Capistron: Don, if you can make the 90 degree turn from the fan to the duct a bend you will be better off
    Jul 23, 2015 8:32 PM - Aaron Mitchell: o/
    Jul 23, 2015 8:39 PM - donhuevo: like this? [​IMG]
    Jul 23, 2015 8:53 PM - Mike Glass: yep that will work great for mine..lol

    Jul 23, 2015 9:18 PM - BryZad: hey mike you here still ?
    Jul 23, 2015 9:18 PM - Mike Glass: yea
    Jul 23, 2015 9:19 PM - BryZad: how would you test a heat bed to see if it went out ohms?
    Jul 23, 2015 9:19 PM - Mike Glass: bed not working?
    Jul 23, 2015 9:20 PM - BryZad: it wont heat and when i took it up the negative wire in the conector has melted
    Jul 23, 2015 9:22 PM - Mike Glass: you could test I guess with an ohmmeter, should be low ohms though. what does it read
    Jul 23, 2015 9:22 PM - BryZad: not sure yet havent got the connector appart yet
    Jul 23, 2015 9:31 PM - BryZad: 1.5 ohms
    Jul 23, 2015 9:34 PM - Mike Glass: sounds like it still should work
    Jul 23, 2015 9:34 PM - Mike Glass: no short thats for sure
    Jul 23, 2015 9:35 PM - BryZad: you wouldnt happen to know what the output should be to the heat bed ?
    Jul 23, 2015 9:36 PM - BryZad: or will it only heat with a themistor attached ?
    Jul 23, 2015 9:37 PM - Mike Glass: yea you might get an error from the ramps if it is not getting temp from it
    Jul 23, 2015 9:40 PM - BryZad: well i get 12 volts to the heat bed now
    Jul 23, 2015 9:40 PM - BryZad: i guess there was a loose connection to the bed in the connector and over heated and melted it
    Jul 23, 2015 9:41 PM - BryZad: guess its time to upgrade the connectors
    Jul 23, 2015 9:41 PM - BryZad: what do you have for the heat bed connector
    Jul 23, 2015 9:46 PM - Mike Glass: stock
    Jul 23, 2015 9:46 PM - Mike Glass: I like the connectors I use for my lights they are rc connectors
    Jul 23, 2015 9:46 PM - BryZad: hmm really ?
    Jul 23, 2015 9:47 PM - Mike Glass: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GTG0KT0?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00
    Jul 23, 2015 9:47 PM - Mike Glass: good up to 60 amps
    Jul 23, 2015 9:56 PM - BryZad: do you need a special crimp tool for it ?
    Jul 23, 2015 9:59 PM - Mike Glass: nope just solder
    Jul 23, 2015 10:16 PM - daniel871: Ok. This looks like a fun thing to make.Photon Printer - Micro Laser Engraver http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:902826

    Jul 24, 2015 3:17 AM - Bill Monroe: how are ya?
    Jul 24, 2015 3:22 AM - Mike Glass: loading a part to print, good and you?
    Jul 24, 2015 3:23 AM - Bill Monroe: just printing a couple of small parts to finish up a project. 'bout to go get in the jacuzzi with 2.0
    Jul 24, 2015 3:24 AM - Mike Glass: woot woot. Im finishing parts for my upgrade tonight
    Jul 24, 2015 3:24 AM - Bill Monroe: nice :)
    Jul 24, 2015 3:26 AM - Mike Glass: and a new piece for the cnc, to make the z stronger.
    Jul 24, 2015 3:26 AM - Bill Monroe: strong z is the foundation for happiness
    Jul 24, 2015 3:27 AM - Mike Glass: an going to quiet the robo down tonight as well with new fans
    Jul 24, 2015 3:35 AM - Bill Monroe: I think I've reached the limit to mods on the machine
    Jul 24, 2015 3:38 AM - Mike Glass: unless you beast mode:)
    Jul 24, 2015 4:01 AM - Bill Monroe: naw,, i think its design has reached it's practical limits, plus I want to do ABS more
    Jul 24, 2015 4:01 AM - Bill Monroe: so, its a scratch start
    Jul 24, 2015 4:04 AM - Bill Monroe: gotta get the router finished first, and now son wants to make a pc board router so the Robo will still live for awhile
    Jul 24, 2015 4:04 AM - Bill Monroe: ok.. 2.0 is standing in the Jacuzzi.. i better go
    Jul 24, 2015 4:05 AM - Bill Monroe: bbl
    Jul 24, 2015 4:39 AM - jbigler1986: morning
    Jul 24, 2015 4:39 AM - jbigler1986: MG what are you doing here so early
    Jul 24, 2015 4:40 AM - donhuevo: yeah... what the hell
    Jul 24, 2015 4:43 AM - jbigler1986: how did your dict turn out
    Jul 24, 2015 4:46 AM - donhuevo: I need to make some minor tweaks and add some screw tabs to it but it'll work
    Jul 24, 2015 4:51 AM - jbigler1986: good. did you see my PM
    Jul 24, 2015 4:54 AM - donhuevo: I did
    Jul 24, 2015 5:02 AM - JeffTheMess: morning folks
    Jul 24, 2015 5:03 AM - jbigler1986: Crazy right?
    Jul 24, 2015 5:12 AM - donhuevo: effed up
    Jul 24, 2015 5:12 AM - jbigler1986: anyone online that is an admin that has access to the members info?
    Jul 24, 2015 5:15 AM - jbigler1986: explain this http://community.robo3d.com/index.php?members/whedonfan04.7356/
    Jul 24, 2015 5:16 AM - jbigler1986: go to recent activity or postings. they have none, clearly as you see in that other thread they posted something
    Jul 24, 2015 5:23 AM - daniel871: The actual post was deleted, so that's probably why the profile doesn't show anything (even if I still have it in a quote).
    Jul 24, 2015 5:34 AM - jbigler1986: how did the volcano do
    Jul 24, 2015 5:37 AM - daniel871: It actually did fine, but now I'm getting some kind of vibration in the Robo that I'm having trouble pinning down.
    Jul 24, 2015 5:37 AM - daniel871: Doesn't seem to affect the print itself, it's just loud and annoying.
    Jul 24, 2015 5:38 AM - daniel871: Lubricated all of the rails and it made zero difference to the noise.
    Jul 24, 2015 5:38 AM - daniel871: So this evening I'm going to be checking everything to see if something is just loose and rattling in the frame somewhere.
    Jul 24, 2015 5:39 AM - daniel871: The HfnC's are drifting a little during long, straight extruding runs (was printing the Swivel LCD cover and back).
    Jul 24, 2015 5:40 AM - donhuevo: that's the auto-level code compensating
    Jul 24, 2015 5:41 AM - daniel871: The threads themselves don't appear to be turning though. Just the coupler. Like a loose washer vibrating on a bridgeport setup.
    Jul 24, 2015 5:42 AM - donhuevo: maybe put a little tape on the tops of your threads just to be sure they aren't moving along with the HfnC's
    Jul 24, 2015 5:42 AM - daniel871: Small piece of electrical?
    Jul 24, 2015 5:42 AM - donhuevo: something that would make small turns obvious. electrical works
    Jul 24, 2015 5:43 AM - daniel871: Like a little black flag.
    Jul 24, 2015 5:43 AM - donhuevo: yup
    Jul 24, 2015 5:43 AM - donhuevo: skull and crossbones optional,
    Jul 24, 2015 5:44 AM - daniel871: Hey JB, did you have a fan extender on the Robo when you were wiring everything up/how drastic were the firmware changes?
    Jul 24, 2015 5:44 AM - daniel871: For the dual bowden.
    Jul 24, 2015 5:45 AM - daniel871: I was thinking about comparing the E3D Chimera firmware for the Robo to the Leadscrew firmware and copying the changes from the former to the latter for the configuration.h and pins and stuff.
    Jul 24, 2015 5:45 AM - daniel871: But actual documentation is kind of slim.
    Jul 24, 2015 5:46 AM - donhuevo: I'm thinking the only firmware change is to switch from motherboard 33 to 34
    Jul 24, 2015 5:46 AM - daniel871: http://wiki.e3d-online.com/wiki/Cyclops/Chimera_on_RoBo3D
    Jul 24, 2015 5:46 AM - donhuevo: the second extruder heater gets connected where your parts fan is now
    Jul 24, 2015 5:46 AM - daniel871: But what about the fan extender and enabling it for parts cooling?
    Jul 24, 2015 5:47 AM - donhuevo: included in motherboard 34
    Jul 24, 2015 5:47 AM - jbigler1986: firmware changes were easy. i ordered the fan extender. but for obvious reason i can't get it
    Jul 24, 2015 5:47 AM - jbigler1986: the only firmware changes i didn't have made yet were the offset
    Jul 24, 2015 5:48 AM - daniel871: So move the parts fan wires to the fan extender, plug the 2nd heater into the original parts fan spot, then check offsets and plug the 2nd extruder stepper into the E1 slot.
    Jul 24, 2015 5:48 AM - jbigler1986: i just wired a switch to the parts fans until i got the extender
    Jul 24, 2015 5:48 AM - daniel871: I already have the extender.
    Jul 24, 2015 5:48 AM - daniel871: Just haven't mounted it yet.
    Jul 24, 2015 5:48 AM - daniel871: Waiting on the second geared stepper for Extruder 2 to come in.
    Jul 24, 2015 5:49 AM - jbigler1986: fan extender going to P4 i believe
    Jul 24, 2015 5:50 AM - daniel871: I was mainly curious about firmware changes because the shop will be finished set up for power today and I was going to go ahead and flash it, then carry everything to the shop and do the hardware changes and go.
    Jul 24, 2015 5:50 AM - daniel871: go = test prints.
    Jul 24, 2015 5:51 AM - daniel871: Flash it this evening after putting the dual carriage together and measuring the offset distances from one nozzle to the next after making sure they were the same length.
    Jul 24, 2015 5:51 AM - donhuevo: change this #define MOTHERBOARD 33 to 34 in configuration.h and that should be it
    Jul 24, 2015 5:51 AM - jbigler1986: yep. then the stuff on the link you posted
    Jul 24, 2015 5:53 AM - daniel871: # of Extruders to 2 instead of 1, temp sensor as type 5 from 1 & 0?
    Jul 24, 2015 5:53 AM - daniel871: According to that wiki.
    Jul 24, 2015 5:53 AM - jbigler1986: YES
    Jul 24, 2015 5:53 AM - daniel871: Seems simple enough, yeah.

    Jul 24, 2015 5:53 AM - jbigler1986: 1) Suggested Kp, Ki, and Kd to 25.21, 2.47, 64.43 from 22.2, 1.08, and 114 Note: These values should be calculated for yourself 2) Uncomment Extruder_Offset_X and Y and set Y distance to 18.0. Depends on which extruder is defined as 1
    Jul 24, 2015 5:54 AM - daniel871: Yeah, crap, I need to carry a laptop with Arduino out so I can do the PID for each heater.
    Jul 24, 2015 5:54 AM - daniel871: And average them or something.
    Jul 24, 2015 5:54 AM - daniel871: (though they should be identical)
    Jul 24, 2015 5:55 AM - daniel871: Arduino and S3D.
    Jul 24, 2015 6:41 AM - jbigler1986: enough madness this morning. blah
    Jul 24, 2015 6:53 AM - daniel871: I need to adjust the feet I made for the PrintinZ plate. They worked fine for the LCD cover, but when MK's new lifter feet were printing it started to slide during the third hour of printing.
    Jul 24, 2015 6:53 AM - daniel871: Which sucks.
    Jul 24, 2015 6:54 AM - jbigler1986: i have never had mine slide. hmmm
    Jul 24, 2015 6:55 AM - daniel871: Do you use a PrintinZ plate?
    Jul 24, 2015 6:55 AM - daniel871: I had some small black paper clips on there, but the one I had in the middle would scrape over the pillow block screws as it traveled by.
    Jul 24, 2015 6:56 AM - daniel871: So I made the PET+ clips, and they cleared, but apparently aren't a tight enough fit.
    Jul 24, 2015 6:56 AM - JeffTheMess: I order my power supply through robo cheaper than the link you sent me JB, but thanks anyway :)
    Jul 24, 2015 6:58 AM - jbigler1986: oh. for the plate. nevermind
    Jul 24, 2015 6:59 AM - daniel871: Does the heated glass plate on the Robo website come with the magnets on it, or do I have to transfer those over?
    Jul 24, 2015 7:00 AM - daniel871: Need to order one since the one I have on mine has started chipping out in the middle.
    Jul 24, 2015 7:00 AM - jbigler1986: it comes with magnet. at least the one they sent me did
    Jul 24, 2015 7:16 AM - Mike Kelly: uh morning
    Jul 24, 2015 7:17 AM - jbigler1986: long time no see. lol
    Jul 24, 2015 7:19 AM - jbigler1986: by the way. humidity sucks
    Jul 24, 2015 7:20 AM - Mike Kelly: why do you think i live in the southwest :)
    Jul 24, 2015 7:23 AM - jbigler1986: good rule of thumb
    Jul 24, 2015 7:24 AM - jbigler1986: wonder why they chose thumb
    Jul 24, 2015 7:24 AM - Mike Kelly: you've seen boondock saints yeah
    Jul 24, 2015 7:24 AM - jbigler1986: yeah. been a while though
    Jul 24, 2015 7:25 AM - jbigler1986: cutting of thumbs?
    Jul 24, 2015 7:27 AM - Mike Kelly: not sure how true it was but in the movie this butch woman says that the rule of thumb meant you could beat your wife with a switch as long as it was smaller than your thumb
    Jul 24, 2015 7:28 AM - jbigler1986: man the old days were nuts
    Jul 24, 2015 7:29 AM - jbigler1986: drunk 24/7
    Jul 24, 2015 7:30 AM - Mike Kelly: whiskey for breakfast?
    Jul 24, 2015 7:31 AM - Mike Kelly: yes please
    Jul 24, 2015 7:31 AM - jbigler1986: no thanks
    Jul 24, 2015 7:31 AM - Mike Kelly: lol
    Jul 24, 2015 7:31 AM - Mike Kelly: everyone was totally fit shaced
    Jul 24, 2015 7:32 AM - jbigler1986: hard alcohol i'm not a fan of
    Jul 24, 2015 7:32 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah i can't believe that was like all they drank
    Jul 24, 2015 7:32 AM - jbigler1986: it was like drinking water to them
    Jul 24, 2015 7:32 AM - daniel871: What are the dimensions of the robo's glass bed?
    Jul 24, 2015 7:32 AM - Mike Kelly: more sanitary that way
    Jul 24, 2015 7:33 AM - Mike Kelly: 10"x15-1/8" iirc
    Jul 24, 2015 7:33 AM - daniel871: I'm looking to see if Amazon has a reprap borosilicate heated bed for less than Robo wants for one.
    Jul 24, 2015 7:33 AM - Mike Kelly: i bought my replacement from cincinatti gasket
    Jul 24, 2015 7:33 AM - jbigler1986: i got mine from them for $30 with the wiring
    Jul 24, 2015 7:33 AM - daniel871: They want $89 for it now.
    Jul 24, 2015 7:34 AM - jbigler1986: i didn't buy it from the website
    Jul 24, 2015 7:34 AM - jbigler1986: Contact Jerry
    Jul 24, 2015 7:42 AM - Mike Kelly: i swear this replicator 2x is mocking me
    Jul 24, 2015 7:44 AM - daniel871: Haha, when I searched Cincinnati Gasket on Amazon is showed me a Casket with the Cincinnati team logos inside it.
    Jul 24, 2015 7:44 AM - Mike Kelly: lol
    Jul 24, 2015 7:44 AM - Mike Kelly: lemme get you an email
    Jul 24, 2015 7:45 AM - Mike Kelly: meinhardts@cincinnatigasket.com
    Jul 24, 2015 7:45 AM - daniel871: I sent a message to Jerry.
    Jul 24, 2015 7:45 AM - daniel871: Did they sent you something that was wired up and ready to go, or did you have to work on it to add the heater to it?
    Jul 24, 2015 7:46 AM - jbigler1986: it was wired up and ready to go
    Jul 24, 2015 7:46 AM - jbigler1986: just ask him about it being wired already
    Jul 24, 2015 7:47 AM - daniel871: I meant MK's gasket maker.
    Jul 24, 2015 7:48 AM - jbigler1986: mk that rep x2 gives you so much trouble
    Jul 24, 2015 7:48 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah though the last 2 jams i can't really blame on the printer
    Jul 24, 2015 7:49 AM - Mike Kelly: the first one was because the filament bound on itself
    Jul 24, 2015 7:49 AM - jbigler1986: $100 bill trick yet?
    Jul 24, 2015 7:49 AM - Mike Kelly: this last one some hips chunks got like glued to the spool and the feed got stuck on that
    Jul 24, 2015 7:49 AM - Mike Kelly: i prefer virgins blood
    Jul 24, 2015 7:49 AM - daniel871: Would the PrintinZ plate be okay with just a clip on each corner on the Robo?
    Jul 24, 2015 7:50 AM - jbigler1986: well they put a money sensor in the smart extuder
    Jul 24, 2015 7:50 AM - Mike Kelly: for pla and pet, sure
    Jul 24, 2015 7:50 AM - Mike Kelly: i think they added NFC, gotta make it smart in some way
    Jul 24, 2015 7:50 AM - daniel871: The metal clips I used before held it in place really well, but the one I'd put in the middle would scrape on the pillow block.
    Jul 24, 2015 7:50 AM - Mike Kelly: ah
    Jul 24, 2015 7:53 AM - Mike Kelly: use magnets
    Jul 24, 2015 7:53 AM - daniel871: What, on the back side of the glass?
    Jul 24, 2015 7:53 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah top and bottom
    Jul 24, 2015 7:53 AM - daniel871: So now I need to find strong enough magnets and buy them.
    Jul 24, 2015 7:53 AM - Mike Kelly: i dunno just throwing ideas out
    Jul 24, 2015 7:53 AM - daniel871: :p
    Jul 24, 2015 7:55 AM - daniel871: Guess it would depend on the Curie temp for the particular magnet whether that would work or not, too.
    Jul 24, 2015 7:55 AM - Mike Kelly: heh that's a valid point
    Jul 24, 2015 7:56 AM - daniel871: Plus the rods are magnetic.
    Jul 24, 2015 7:56 AM - daniel871: Or they attract magnets, rather.
    Jul 24, 2015 7:56 AM - Mike Kelly: yup
    Jul 24, 2015 7:57 AM - Mike Kelly: hardened steel
    Jul 24, 2015 7:57 AM - daniel871: It's how I'd check that the X-carriage was parallel to bed. Put my magnetic angle finder on the bed, zero it, put it on the carriage, adjust until zero again.
    Jul 24, 2015 7:57 AM - Mike Kelly: i need something for measuring angle...
    Jul 24, 2015 7:58 AM - daniel871: Ha. http://www.amazon.com/ETHAHE-10x1mm...d=1437750028&sr=8-16&keywords=powerful+magnet
    Jul 24, 2015 7:59 AM - daniel871: Here is your angle finder. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001PTGBRQ?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00
    Jul 24, 2015 8:00 AM - Mike Kelly: ooooo
    Jul 24, 2015 8:00 AM - Mike Kelly: man wood working requires so many tools
    Jul 24, 2015 8:00 AM - Mike Kelly: and i think i'm gonna back the bigbox
    Jul 24, 2015 8:02 AM - Stephen Capistron: http://www.amazon.com/Incra-G455-Gu...pebp=1437750303221&perid=0H9GC5QW0BJQPJBEKGH4
    Jul 24, 2015 8:02 AM - Stephen Capistron: they also make a 90
    Jul 24, 2015 8:04 AM - jbigler1986: bigbox looks awesome
    Jul 24, 2015 8:07 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah i dig it
    Jul 24, 2015 8:07 AM - Mike Kelly: me and printed solid are trying to work out some arrangement with e3d
    Jul 24, 2015 8:07 AM - daniel871: I need to remember to revisit their kickstarter before it is funded and see if I have enough money to get the Dual Pro reward.
    Jul 24, 2015 8:07 AM - Mike Kelly: we'll see
    Jul 24, 2015 8:08 AM - jbigler1986: They are raising money fast for it
    Jul 24, 2015 8:08 AM - Mike Kelly: yup, it won't be a tiko or anything that crazy but i think they'll end up 300k+
    Jul 24, 2015 8:10 AM - Mike Kelly: kinda disappointed they're default birch
    Jul 24, 2015 8:10 AM - WheresWaldo: Almost noon, hello everyone.
    Jul 24, 2015 8:11 AM - Mike Kelly: hello
    Jul 24, 2015 8:11 AM - Mike Kelly: stephen did you see the update to my table/

    Jul 24, 2015 8:11 AM - Stephen Capistron: i did
    Jul 24, 2015 8:11 AM - Stephen Capistron: looking good
    Jul 24, 2015 8:11 AM - WheresWaldo: MK, you going to suggest the BigBox to BenMac today?
    Jul 24, 2015 8:12 AM - jbigler1986: lol
    Jul 24, 2015 8:12 AM - WheresWaldo: Hey JB
    Jul 24, 2015 8:12 AM - jbigler1986: morning
    Jul 24, 2015 8:13 AM - Mike Kelly: lol na i don't think he's patient enough to wait that long :)
    Jul 24, 2015 8:13 AM - jbigler1986: he just needs to do it
    Jul 24, 2015 8:13 AM - WheresWaldo: But since he is still debating with himself, the reality is he has all the time in the world.
    Jul 24, 2015 8:14 AM - jbigler1986: 2nd printer makes me laugh
    Jul 24, 2015 8:14 AM - WheresWaldo: 2nd printer in general or for someone who doesn't have a 1st printer?
    Jul 24, 2015 8:15 AM - jbigler1986: him asking about a 2nd when he doesn't have 1
    Jul 24, 2015 8:16 AM - WheresWaldo: I just joined the HercuLien and Eustathios Builders Google+ group
    Jul 24, 2015 8:17 AM - Mike Kelly: that's my favorite group, though it does make me reallllly want one
    Jul 24, 2015 8:18 AM - WheresWaldo: I saw that you had commented there. I also see that is where Walter posts, some of his refinements are just beautiful, wished he would build a Herculein.
    Jul 24, 2015 8:18 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah
    Jul 24, 2015 8:18 AM - jbigler1986: yeah. his stuff is pretty amazing
    Jul 24, 2015 8:18 AM - Mike Kelly: walter is super talented
    Jul 24, 2015 8:18 AM - jbigler1986: tank extruder for robo needs to happen
    Jul 24, 2015 8:19 AM - WheresWaldo: And his prints are nearly perfect. I see he uses my favorite filament PETG most of the time.
    Jul 24, 2015 8:19 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah he has that rigidbot insanely tuned
    Jul 24, 2015 8:20 AM - Mike Kelly: hmm one of my hard drives is failing i think
    Jul 24, 2015 8:20 AM - Mike Kelly: super glad i run raid
    Jul 24, 2015 8:20 AM - WheresWaldo: One think I noticed, at some point he had a Pentax DSLR, I am an old time Pentax user, and I still have my 100% mechanical MX that I bought new in the 80's.
    Jul 24, 2015 8:21 AM - WheresWaldo: MK what RAID card?
    Jul 24, 2015 8:21 AM - Mike Kelly: it's built into my mobo
    Jul 24, 2015 8:23 AM - WheresWaldo: I am using an older Areca with a 13 TB Raid 6
    Jul 24, 2015 8:23 AM - Mike Glass: Morning once again..
    Jul 24, 2015 8:24 AM - Mike Kelly: sup mike
    Jul 24, 2015 8:24 AM - WheresWaldo: It was a real bitch when I upgraded the array from 9TB to 13TB, rebuilding after each drive swap. took forever.
    Jul 24, 2015 8:24 AM - Mike Glass: tired, stayed up to late working on the upgrade parts, then got up at 4am to finish the print for the z upgrade for the cnc.
    Jul 24, 2015 8:24 AM - Mike Kelly: i'm running raid 10 on here
    Jul 24, 2015 8:25 AM - Mike Kelly: geez mike, i don't know how you survive on that
    Jul 24, 2015 8:25 AM - Mike Glass: Raid10? how many drives do you have?
    Jul 24, 2015 8:25 AM - Mike Kelly: 4
    Jul 24, 2015 8:26 AM - Mike Glass: nice
    Jul 24, 2015 8:26 AM - WheresWaldo: With so many boards supporting RAID, don't know why more people don't do it.
    Jul 24, 2015 8:26 AM - Mike Kelly: cost of buying an additional drive mostly
    Jul 24, 2015 8:26 AM - Mike Glass: so raid 0+Raid1
    Jul 24, 2015 8:26 AM - Mike Kelly: yup
    Jul 24, 2015 8:26 AM - Mike Kelly: i run raid at home as well, saved me once already
    Jul 24, 2015 8:27 AM - Mike Kelly: just raid 0 there
    Jul 24, 2015 8:27 AM - WheresWaldo: But drives are cheap unless you are in the market for 4TB drives. My array is just 2TB drives.
    Jul 24, 2015 8:27 AM - Mike Kelly: but 4 tb drives :)
    Jul 24, 2015 8:27 AM - Mike Kelly: really want those 8tb lol
    Jul 24, 2015 8:27 AM - Mike Kelly: not that i need it
    Jul 24, 2015 8:27 AM - Mike Kelly: that reminds me it's been like a year since i did a backup
    Jul 24, 2015 8:28 AM - Mike Glass: mine runs the sas drives
    Jul 24, 2015 8:28 AM - WheresWaldo: When 8TB is common I might upgrade to 4TB drives as they will be cheaper, but buying 8 drives is just too much money to spend. Besides what am I going to do with 25-28 TB
    Jul 24, 2015 8:28 AM - Mike Glass: 15k but they are not very big
    Jul 24, 2015 8:29 AM - Mike Kelly: lots of HD movies?
    Jul 24, 2015 8:29 AM - Mike Glass: I have like 20 extra drives though
    Jul 24, 2015 8:29 AM - WheresWaldo: So your data became important today? LOL
    Jul 24, 2015 8:30 AM - WheresWaldo: Already have over 1100 HD movies, almost all h.264 with 5.1 or 7.1 sound.
    Jul 24, 2015 8:30 AM - Mike Glass: I have two nas drives at home I backup too
    Jul 24, 2015 8:31 AM - Mike Kelly: i've got pretty much everything backed up on the server anyways
    Jul 24, 2015 8:36 AM - Mike Glass: holy cow Jerry is in the house
    Jul 24, 2015 8:38 AM - Mike Kelly: eh?
    Jul 24, 2015 8:38 AM - jbigler1986: WHAT
    Jul 24, 2015 8:38 AM - Mike Glass: aww he left
    Jul 24, 2015 8:39 AM - Mike Kelly: if this print fails i'm gonna take a sledge hammer to this rep2x
    Jul 24, 2015 8:39 AM - jbigler1986: robo jerry?
    Jul 24, 2015 8:40 AM - jbigler1986: send it my way first MK
    Jul 24, 2015 8:40 AM - Mike Kelly: lol
    Jul 24, 2015 8:40 AM - jbigler1986: #3DPrinterWithdrawals
    Jul 24, 2015 8:41 AM - Mike Kelly: man i'm pissed off at this stupid engine
    Jul 24, 2015 8:42 AM - Mike Glass: how about a soliddoodle pen jb that should keep you busy..lol
    Jul 24, 2015 8:42 AM - Mike Kelly: the cam holder doesn't fit over the freaking bearing clamps
    Jul 24, 2015 8:42 AM - Mike Kelly: who designed this?!
    Jul 24, 2015 8:42 AM - Mike Glass: Your still working on that?
    Jul 24, 2015 8:43 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah
    Jul 24, 2015 8:43 AM - Mike Kelly: i work on it when i get bored
    Jul 24, 2015 8:43 AM - daniel871: If you're talking about the Thingiverse Toyota engine, I think they say you have to sand the parts to fit.
    Jul 24, 2015 8:43 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah i am
    Jul 24, 2015 8:43 AM - daniel871: Same for the transmission.
    Jul 24, 2015 8:44 AM - Mike Kelly: i wish he'd release the solidworks model, he's being a dick withholding them
    Jul 24, 2015 8:44 AM - daniel871: Find out he just took one apart, 3d scanned the bits and has been rough scaling the STL files.
    Jul 24, 2015 8:45 AM - Mike Kelly: the transmission works decently well, just has struggle shifting
    Jul 24, 2015 8:45 AM - daniel871: That or he's testing designing a scaled working model to sell as an RC kit or something.

    Jul 24, 2015 10:22 AM - Stephen Capistron: Why not just straight down?
    Jul 24, 2015 10:23 AM - Mike Kelly: i like it, you'll still get some back draft though
    Jul 24, 2015 10:23 AM - donhuevo: on large flat prints, that still has the potential to cool the nozzle and cause a jam
    Jul 24, 2015 10:23 AM - Mike Kelly: where is the nozzle relative to the opening
    Jul 24, 2015 10:24 AM - donhuevo: [​IMG]
    Jul 24, 2015 10:26 AM - donhuevo: I think it's more important to blow where the nozzle has been instead of always where it currently is
    Jul 24, 2015 10:31 AM - Mike Kelly: i meant from the cross section

    Jul 24, 2015 12:41 PM - daniel871: Yeah, various articles about it say that the banks will often reduce or remove the fee if you complain, but a lot of people just take it.

    Jul 24, 2015 12:44 PM - daniel871: They pretty much don't care and say if people don't like it to go to a different bank.
    Jul 24, 2015 12:45 PM - daniel871: Because all banks do it.

    Jul 24, 2015 1:48 PM - Mike Glass: ok,
    Jul 24, 2015 1:49 PM - Mike Glass: sometimes if forget to actually export it out.
    Jul 24, 2015 2:20 PM - jbigler1986: Fail
    Jul 24, 2015 2:20 PM - Mike Kelly: i swear some manufacturers are just out to mess with me: http://www.carlyleccrp.com/site/catalog/15_henry/henry.pdf page 5, S-5194
    Jul 24, 2015 2:20 PM - Mike Kelly: none of the diagrams are for 5194
    Jul 24, 2015 2:20 PM - Mike Kelly: the middle one would make sense but it's only 5190 and 5192
    Jul 24, 2015 2:26 PM - Mike Glass: those documents are from the 60's
    Jul 24, 2015 2:27 PM - Mike Glass: err look
    Jul 24, 2015 2:27 PM - donhuevo: they discontinued drawing pictures of the 5194
    Jul 24, 2015 2:28 PM - Mike Kelly: i'm sure it's the 90/92 one but why do they gotta do shit like that, drives me crazy
    Jul 24, 2015 2:28 PM - donhuevo: or it's a misprint and the middle pic is supposed to include the 5194
    Jul 24, 2015 2:32 PM - jbigler1986: I came in at the wrong time bc im lost
    Jul 24, 2015 2:32 PM - Mike Kelly: i'm just bitching about work stuff
    Jul 24, 2015 2:33 PM - bamhm182: Hey all
    Jul 24, 2015 2:34 PM - Mike Glass: Bam
    Jul 24, 2015 2:34 PM - Mike Kelly: sup bam
    Jul 24, 2015 2:34 PM - bamhm182: Not much, how'd your upgrades go, MG?
    Jul 24, 2015 2:34 PM - donhuevo: bam
    Jul 24, 2015 2:34 PM - Mike Glass: not yet, tonight, had to print some pieces last night.
    Jul 24, 2015 2:35 PM - bamhm182: Gotcha
    Jul 24, 2015 2:35 PM - Mike Glass: Z upgrade for cnc is ready too..woot.
    Jul 24, 2015 2:35 PM - bamhm182: I tried printing a box for emmett's gyroids last night. It failed pretty quick in, but I didn't notice until it was almost done
    Jul 24, 2015 2:36 PM - Mike Glass: leave a mess did it?
    Jul 24, 2015 2:37 PM - Mike Glass: don=lurker
    Jul 24, 2015 2:37 PM - donhuevo: yup
    Jul 24, 2015 2:37 PM - Mike Glass: dict lurker
    Jul 24, 2015 2:38 PM - donhuevo: just fiddling with my dict keeping an eye on things
    Jul 24, 2015 2:38 PM - Mike Kelly: don's the master of dicts
    Jul 24, 2015 2:40 PM - bamhm182: Nope, thankfully the hobbed bolt just ground down the filament
    Jul 24, 2015 2:41 PM - donhuevo: honestly, I don't know how to unhide myself
    Jul 24, 2015 2:41 PM - Mike Glass: I need to find a pla part I printed and send off to this guy that wants to cast in iron, Think aria would be cool?
    Jul 24, 2015 2:41 PM - Mike Kelly: don it happens when you log in
    Jul 24, 2015 2:41 PM - bamhm182: Probably got a jam in there, so I'll probably have to take it apart... Again... Oh well
    Jul 24, 2015 2:41 PM - bamhm182: I think it would
    Jul 24, 2015 2:41 PM - donhuevo: so I need to log out and back in again
    Jul 24, 2015 2:41 PM - Mike Glass: no you dont need to log out
    Jul 24, 2015 2:41 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah just tell it not to hide your online status
    Jul 24, 2015 2:41 PM - Mike Kelly: mike that would be cool if it can get all the features
    Jul 24, 2015 2:42 PM - Mike Glass: just click on your icon on the top and it has a checkbox
    Jul 24, 2015 2:42 PM - Mike Kelly: oh no nevermind, mike found the easier way
    Jul 24, 2015 2:43 PM - Mike Glass: there he is
    Jul 24, 2015 2:43 PM - Mike Glass: welcome don
    Jul 24, 2015 2:43 PM - donhuevo: that one. shit
    Jul 24, 2015 2:43 PM - bamhm182: Welcome, don
    Jul 24, 2015 2:43 PM - donhuevo: never bothered looking there
    Jul 24, 2015 2:43 PM - bamhm182: Dang! You beat me to it by a split second, haha
    Jul 24, 2015 2:43 PM - donhuevo: hey thanks... I'll be here all week. remember to tip your waitress
    Jul 24, 2015 2:44 PM - Mike Glass: Mk, I would use the 11" aria so should be fairly good detail
    Jul 24, 2015 2:44 PM - Mike Kelly: oh that would be awesome
    Jul 24, 2015 2:44 PM - Mike Glass: he said he does, bronze
    Jul 24, 2015 2:44 PM - Mike Kelly: man it's so cute how my dog stares out the window
    Jul 24, 2015 2:45 PM - Mike Kelly: i really need to make that at home furnace i bought stuff for
    Jul 24, 2015 2:45 PM - Mike Kelly: need to buy the refractory cement
    Jul 24, 2015 2:45 PM - bamhm182: How would you get the 11" aria on your robo?
    Jul 24, 2015 2:45 PM - bamhm182: Print it in two parts?
    Jul 24, 2015 2:46 PM - Mike Kelly: i think he meant 9"
    Jul 24, 2015 2:46 PM - Mike Glass: Yup
    Jul 24, 2015 2:46 PM - Mike Kelly: oh
    Jul 24, 2015 2:46 PM - Mike Kelly: n/m!
    Jul 24, 2015 2:46 PM - Mike Kelly: i'm 0-2 today
    Jul 24, 2015 2:46 PM - Mike Glass: I have one that I did that reached the top of the robo and almost crashed, that was just at 9"
    Jul 24, 2015 2:46 PM - Mike Kelly: how'd you bond it
    Jul 24, 2015 2:49 PM - Mike Glass: loctite super glue
    Jul 24, 2015 2:51 PM - Mike Kelly: i wonder how that will do during burn out
    Jul 24, 2015 2:52 PM - bamhm182: [​IMG]
    Jul 24, 2015 2:52 PM - bamhm182: Just print it like that, haha
    Jul 24, 2015 2:54 PM - Mike Glass: ow that would be ugly
    Jul 24, 2015 2:55 PM - Mike Kelly: omg
    Jul 24, 2015 2:55 PM - Mike Glass: shouldnt matter as the sand is cast around it, onlything I worry about is the legs as small.
    Jul 24, 2015 2:55 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah the legs would need to have the metal flow through, probably solidify first
    Jul 24, 2015 2:56 PM - Mike Glass: the would have to vent it in about 6 places
    Jul 24, 2015 2:56 PM - Mike Kelly: unless you made some sprues
    Jul 24, 2015 2:58 PM - Mike Glass: Maybe once I get my upgrade done I will start 18" or bigger print of it.
    Jul 24, 2015 2:59 PM - Mike Glass: try some new silver I got, or even the brown it looks interesting.
    Jul 24, 2015 3:01 PM - jbigler1986: Gorilla glue
    Jul 24, 2015 3:04 PM - Mike Kelly: we should have that guy print one on his robo beast
    Jul 24, 2015 3:05 PM - Mike Kelly: [​IMG] what kind of asshole dimensioning is this?!
    Jul 24, 2015 3:06 PM - Mike Kelly: "na no one uses center to center, let's make it from one edge to the other, much clearer that way" :mad:
    Jul 24, 2015 3:06 PM - Mike Glass: Where is A and B?
    Jul 24, 2015 3:07 PM - Mike Kelly: it's on the other profile
    Jul 24, 2015 3:07 PM - Mike Kelly: but lemme tell you someone who makes a drawing and skips a letter is basically hitler
    Jul 24, 2015 3:09 PM - jbigler1986: Woah
    Jul 24, 2015 3:11 PM - jbigler1986: That blueprint is horrible
    Jul 24, 2015 3:12 PM - Mike Kelly: the sad thing is this is actually better than most of what i come across
    Jul 24, 2015 3:13 PM - jbigler1986: Wtf. That blowd
    Jul 24, 2015 3:15 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah i'm not totally sure how they intend for people to do mechanical systems design when they don't have models of equipment
    Jul 24, 2015 3:15 PM - Mike Glass: did you call the company, maybe they just dont publish to the public
    Jul 24, 2015 3:19 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah i've never had great luck with that with other companies, never tried with henry technologies
    Jul 24, 2015 3:20 PM - Mike Kelly: though now i have the model all done so eh
    Jul 24, 2015 3:20 PM - Mike Glass: when you gonna send me those geared steppers
    Jul 24, 2015 3:22 PM - Mike Kelly: whenever you send me yo address
    Jul 24, 2015 3:22 PM - Mike Kelly: and money
    Jul 24, 2015 3:22 PM - Mike Glass: Whhaaat?
    Jul 24, 2015 3:23 PM - Mike Kelly: lol those things cost me $84
    Jul 24, 2015 3:23 PM - Mike Glass: I aint got no monies
    Jul 24, 2015 3:23 PM - Mike Kelly: ok i'll trade you for you mpcnc :)
    Jul 24, 2015 3:23 PM - Mike Glass: haha
    Jul 24, 2015 3:23 PM - Mike Glass: I might need parts off it to share with the BAP

    Jul 24, 2015 3:24 PM - jbigler1986: what is a good search term for a pc built kit on amazon
    Jul 24, 2015 3:24 PM - Mike Glass: Arent your new geard steppers like $28
    Jul 24, 2015 3:24 PM - Mike Glass: search for pavillion JB
    Jul 24, 2015 3:25 PM - jbigler1986: ha
    Jul 24, 2015 3:25 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah i was thinking 60 for both steppers and 10 for both drive gears
    Jul 24, 2015 3:25 PM - Mike Glass: so $60 -10= $50 ok
    Jul 24, 2015 3:26 PM - Mike Kelly: haha
    Jul 24, 2015 3:26 PM - Mike Kelly: how bout 60 for it all
    Jul 24, 2015 3:26 PM - jbigler1986: 60 million
    Jul 24, 2015 3:27 PM - Mike Kelly: http://www.amazon.com/Gear-Ratio-Pl...37776974&sr=8-4&keywords=geared+stepper+motor or just buy these :p
    Jul 24, 2015 3:28 PM - jbigler1986: back in stock. sluts
    Jul 24, 2015 3:29 PM - Mike Glass: $50
    Jul 24, 2015 3:29 PM - Mike Glass: throw in 2 608z bearings also
    Jul 24, 2015 3:29 PM - Mike Glass: I will give you 2 608z bearings
    Jul 24, 2015 3:29 PM - jbigler1986: lol
    Jul 24, 2015 3:30 PM - Mike Glass: oh wait i need those for the hercustruder
    Jul 24, 2015 3:30 PM - jbigler1986: they are diamond encrusted
    Jul 24, 2015 3:31 PM - Mike Kelly: i can give you 2 608zz's
    Jul 24, 2015 3:32 PM - jbigler1986: what is the difference
    Jul 24, 2015 3:32 PM - Mike Glass: ok, guess I better get going talk about it later, have to deliever some furniture.
    Jul 24, 2015 3:32 PM - Mike Kelly: later
    Jul 24, 2015 3:32 PM - jbigler1986: trying to see if i can build a cheaper pc from amazon or frys
    Jul 24, 2015 3:32 PM - Mike Kelly: i stick with newegg for that, has the best search tools even if it's a few more $
    Jul 24, 2015 3:33 PM - donhuevo: I'm a regular in their refurbished pc's aisle
    Jul 24, 2015 3:34 PM - jbigler1986: frys is easy and cheap. just wanted to check amazon
    Jul 24, 2015 3:35 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah i wish we had frys here, that place is awesome
    Jul 24, 2015 3:36 PM - jbigler1986: they very rarely dont have something i want. they need to open them everywhere and close down bestbuy
    Jul 24, 2015 3:38 PM - Mike Kelly: bestbuy is the worst
    Jul 24, 2015 3:38 PM - toy: i picked up a kinect sensor and got it working as a scanner
    Jul 24, 2015 3:38 PM - Mike Kelly: awesome
    Jul 24, 2015 3:38 PM - Mike Kelly: skakinect or w/e?
    Jul 24, 2015 3:38 PM - toy: skannect demo...
    Jul 24, 2015 3:39 PM - toy: skanect demo
    Jul 24, 2015 3:39 PM - jbigler1986: bestbuy use to be ok, now they dont have crap
    Jul 24, 2015 3:39 PM - Mike Kelly: whenever i get arround to installing my new speakers i'm gonna take the kinect down and start tinkering with it
    Jul 24, 2015 3:39 PM - Mike Kelly: i originally bought it for robotics stuff but then my wife figured out she liked those dance games
    Jul 24, 2015 3:40 PM - toy: i paid 30 for it at the pawnshop and like 10 for the adapter
    Jul 24, 2015 3:40 PM - toy: ill pick up the new sensor shortly once more apps are available
    Jul 24, 2015 3:41 PM - toy: have u ever used simplecv or opencv?
    Jul 24, 2015 3:41 PM - toy: ivs done some basic tracking with simplecv
    Jul 24, 2015 3:42 PM - Mike Kelly: no i haven't
    Jul 24, 2015 3:42 PM - Mike Kelly: i need to start building robots, i'm doing myself a disservice by not
    Jul 24, 2015 3:42 PM - toy: ive been looking into it also
    Jul 24, 2015 3:42 PM - Mike Kelly: it's just kinda hard to justify the upfront cost
    Jul 24, 2015 3:43 PM - Mike Kelly: i think i need to finish the mpcnc first then do that
    Jul 24, 2015 3:43 PM - toy: yes you do
    Jul 24, 2015 3:43 PM - toy: build this..
    Jul 24, 2015 3:43 PM - donhuevo: if building a robot, it better have at least one dict
    Jul 24, 2015 3:44 PM - toy: http://3dprint.com/16074/5axismaker-3d-printer/
    Jul 24, 2015 3:44 PM - toy: shouldnt be to hard
    Jul 24, 2015 3:44 PM - Stephen Capistron: I was thinking no dict and more weird science for the robot
    Jul 24, 2015 3:44 PM - Mike Kelly: well i'm gonna build a arm robot first i think
    Jul 24, 2015 3:44 PM - Mike Kelly: i shall call him fister roboto
    Jul 24, 2015 3:45 PM - toy: how big?
    Jul 24, 2015 3:45 PM - toy: harmonic drive?
    Jul 24, 2015 3:45 PM - Stephen Capistron: Any automation companies around you?
    Jul 24, 2015 3:45 PM - Mike Kelly: just some 9g servos
    Jul 24, 2015 3:45 PM - toy: your talking alot of $$$
    Jul 24, 2015 3:45 PM - Mike Kelly: uh
    Jul 24, 2015 3:45 PM - Mike Kelly: not that i know of
    Jul 24, 2015 3:46 PM - Mike Kelly: i already have the servos just need to print the arm and buy the servo control board for my uno
    Jul 24, 2015 3:46 PM - toy: what are you gonna do with the arm?.. learning purposes
    Jul 24, 2015 3:46 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah learning mostly, the first one will just be a camera arm
    Jul 24, 2015 3:46 PM - Mike Kelly: so i can move it around remotely
    Jul 24, 2015 3:47 PM - toy: that 5 axis multitool wouldnt be to hard to build
    Jul 24, 2015 3:47 PM - Mike Kelly: then i'm thinking a 4 wheel robot
    Jul 24, 2015 3:47 PM - Stephen Capistron: Take a look around for a few of them, you might like the work
    Jul 24, 2015 3:47 PM - Mike Kelly: lol yeah but i don't have that much money
    Jul 24, 2015 3:47 PM - Stephen Capistron: Think of it as more practical robotics
    Jul 24, 2015 3:47 PM - Mike Kelly: i found a couple robotics companies around here
    Jul 24, 2015 3:47 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah i helped design the automation system for our fermentation CO2 capture cart
    Jul 24, 2015 3:48 PM - Mike Kelly: and i had designed the control system for my synthetic fuels system
    Jul 24, 2015 3:48 PM - toy: i think im gonna build a small aluminum milling cnc with the parts i have and build a larger nema 34 5 x 5 router
    Jul 24, 2015 3:48 PM - Mike Kelly: so i'm pretty familiar with that
    Jul 24, 2015 3:49 PM - Mike Kelly: i'm hoping the MPCNC can handle some aluminum
    Jul 24, 2015 3:49 PM - toy: so i can make robot parts
    Jul 24, 2015 3:49 PM - Mike Kelly: then use the aluminum it makes to make an all aluminum cnc
    Jul 24, 2015 3:49 PM - toy: you have a link again to the mp?
    Jul 24, 2015 3:49 PM - Mike Kelly: then use the aluminum cnc to make an all stainless cnc
    Jul 24, 2015 3:49 PM - Mike Kelly: www.thingiverse.com/thing:724999
    Jul 24, 2015 3:49 PM - Stephen Capistron: MK, Indeed > search automation or just solid works
    Jul 24, 2015 3:49 PM - Mike Kelly: and then be done
    Jul 24, 2015 3:49 PM - toy: run it slow
    Jul 24, 2015 3:50 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah i would
    Jul 24, 2015 3:50 PM - Mike Kelly: like painfully slow
    Jul 24, 2015 3:50 PM - toy: i wonder how the surface finish is
    Jul 24, 2015 3:50 PM - Mike Kelly: but if it can cut at all i'd be happy
    Jul 24, 2015 3:50 PM - toy: cant be that good
    Jul 24, 2015 3:51 PM - toy: or the tolerances it can hold for robotics
    Jul 24, 2015 3:51 PM - Mike Kelly: well it certainly won't be "Toy" level quality
    Jul 24, 2015 3:51 PM - Mike Kelly: but it looks decent
    Jul 24, 2015 3:51 PM - Stephen Capistron: Surface finish is less important than positional accuracy on the mpcnc
    Jul 24, 2015 3:51 PM - toy: my rep is on the line lol
    Jul 24, 2015 3:52 PM - toy: im gonna get a lapping block btw stephen
    Jul 24, 2015 3:52 PM - Stephen Capistron: What ever you do, head hunters and recruiters are pretty much a waste of space in my experience
    Jul 24, 2015 3:52 PM - Mike Kelly: man i hate how bad s3d is at guestimating times
    Jul 24, 2015 3:52 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah i talked to one last week but they had shit
    Jul 24, 2015 3:53 PM - Mike Kelly: i'm going to finish my website this weekend and cross my fingers that this robotics company is interested in me
    Jul 24, 2015 3:53 PM - Stephen Capistron: Lapping block, nice
    Jul 24, 2015 3:54 PM - toy: time to pick a new skill.. i saw some diy automated lappin machines

    Jul 24, 2015 3:55 PM - Stephen Capistron: We'd go down to 0.1 micron finish all the time
    Jul 24, 2015 3:55 PM - toy: .0001 is all i need
    Jul 24, 2015 3:55 PM - toy: yeah thats to much work by hand i would guess
    Jul 24, 2015 3:56 PM - toy: even .0005 would be fine
    Jul 24, 2015 3:56 PM - Stephen Capistron: Yeah it is, though I tried it once
    Jul 24, 2015 3:56 PM - toy: inches
    Jul 24, 2015 3:57 PM - Stephen Capistron: I'm not that old, my mind works in metric
    Jul 24, 2015 3:59 PM - toy: im thinking about getting this http://www.amazon.com/Grizzly-G9653...7778900&sr=1-4&keywords=grizzly+surface+plate
    Jul 24, 2015 4:00 PM - toy: payback for all the times my fedex driver didnt knock loud enough and made me drive to pick up my package
    Jul 24, 2015 4:02 PM - Stephen Capistron: Wait, they don't just leave your stuff
    Jul 24, 2015 4:02 PM - toy: not everything.. depends on the seller i think
    Jul 24, 2015 4:02 PM - toy: some need sig
    Jul 24, 2015 4:03 PM - toy: 127lbs for the granite lol
    Jul 24, 2015 4:03 PM - Stephen Capistron: I wonder how flat quartz counters are?
    Jul 24, 2015 4:03 PM - toy: i have a few pieces of granite counter top leftovers
    Jul 24, 2015 4:04 PM - toy: probably depends on how the machinist was feeling that day lol
    Jul 24, 2015 4:12 PM - jbigler1986: $167.90 to build a decent pc from frys. no monitor
    Jul 24, 2015 4:14 PM - donhuevo: how decent?
    Jul 24, 2015 4:16 PM - jbigler1986: a8 7650k, 8gb 1600 ddr3, 400w psu
    Jul 24, 2015 4:18 PM - jbigler1986: gigabyte f2a68hm-ds2h

    Jul 24, 2015 4:18 PM - jbigler1986: ha. forgot about hdd.
    Jul 24, 2015 4:22 PM - bamhm182: I've got too many hard drives, haha
    Jul 24, 2015 4:22 PM - jbigler1986: it's gonna end up being my pc for the 3d printer and my sons minecraft
    Jul 24, 2015 4:23 PM - jbigler1986: once i get my dual r9 290x pc back
    Jul 24, 2015 4:28 PM - jbigler1986: peoples used pc prices are funny
    Jul 24, 2015 4:29 PM - bamhm182: How so?
    Jul 24, 2015 4:30 PM - jbigler1986: way overpriced
    Jul 24, 2015 4:30 PM - jbigler1986: not to mention i would never buy a used pc
    Jul 24, 2015 4:32 PM - donhuevo: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...23&IsNodeId=1&bop=And&Order=PRICE&PageSize=90
    Jul 24, 2015 4:40 PM - donhuevo: anyone familiar with league of legends?
    Jul 24, 2015 4:40 PM - bamhm182: I played it a couple of times
    Jul 24, 2015 4:41 PM - donhuevo: new-ish guy at work complains to me his computer is slow. I run malwarebytes last night and find a rootkit. decided to check out his history and it looks like he's in there everyday.
    Jul 24, 2015 4:42 PM - donhuevo: not actually sure where he picked it up
    Jul 24, 2015 4:45 PM - bamhm182: Yeah, some people play it religiously
    Jul 24, 2015 4:45 PM - jbigler1986: Wow. What a moron
    Jul 24, 2015 4:45 PM - donhuevo: I'm guessing he's a Jesus freak then
    Jul 24, 2015 4:46 PM - donhuevo: I'm not gonna be one to point a finger because I talk to you bastards every freakin' day at work
    Jul 24, 2015 4:46 PM - bamhm182: I have a friend who goes as far as to make himself play it, even if he doesn't actually want to
    Jul 24, 2015 4:46 PM - bamhm182: Haha, good point. Only reason I don't get on here while at work is because the proxy blocks the login script
    Jul 24, 2015 4:50 PM - donhuevo: I should blacklist the leagueoflegnds domain and see if he says anything
    Jul 24, 2015 4:52 PM - Mike Glass: check out this suport. [​IMG]
    Jul 24, 2015 4:53 PM - donhuevo: I don't know what it is, but it's pretty
    Jul 24, 2015 4:53 PM - Mike Glass: new z support for the cnc
    Jul 24, 2015 4:53 PM - donhuevo: well ok then
    Jul 24, 2015 4:54 PM - donhuevo: dict v2 almost done
    Jul 24, 2015 4:55 PM - jbigler1986: s3d support is beautiful
    Jul 24, 2015 4:56 PM - Mike Glass: I hope you dont break JB's revsion number.
    Jul 24, 2015 4:56 PM - donhuevo: my screw tabs are at the top of the print so I decided to run this one thru s3d too
    Jul 24, 2015 4:56 PM - donhuevo: haha
    Jul 24, 2015 4:58 PM - donhuevo: I'm embarrassed to say it but my dict needs support
    Jul 24, 2015 5:00 PM - Mike Glass: it need the blue filament?
    Jul 24, 2015 5:00 PM - donhuevo: LOfnL
    Jul 24, 2015 5:00 PM - jbigler1986: Yeah doubt anyone will beat my extruder rev number
    Jul 24, 2015 5:01 PM - Mike Glass: I have a few parts when I first started making designs that come close..lol
    Jul 24, 2015 5:01 PM - donhuevo: I could dig out the box with all my old and failed carriages and do a count
    Jul 24, 2015 5:01 PM - jbigler1986: Trial and error is the way to learn
    Jul 24, 2015 5:02 PM - donhuevo: jb definitely wins the hob award
    Jul 24, 2015 5:02 PM - jbigler1986: :D
    Jul 24, 2015 5:02 PM - jbigler1986: Now i know quite a bit about bowden setup though
    Jul 24, 2015 5:03 PM - donhuevo: true
    Jul 24, 2015 5:04 PM - jbigler1986: Im so jealous of u guys right now
    Jul 24, 2015 5:09 PM - Mike Glass: except for printing with one..lol
    Jul 24, 2015 5:09 PM - Mike Glass: so close
    Jul 24, 2015 5:13 PM - jbigler1986: i was printing with bowden
    Jul 24, 2015 5:13 PM - jbigler1986: just not dual
    Jul 24, 2015 5:13 PM - Mike Glass: oh doh
    Jul 24, 2015 5:13 PM - Mike Glass: lol
    Jul 24, 2015 5:13 PM - Mike Glass: ok time to start the tear down.
    Jul 24, 2015 5:16 PM - jbigler1986: Get it
    Jul 24, 2015 5:16 PM - bamhm182: Good luck
    Jul 24, 2015 5:16 PM - bamhm182: I think I need to sit down and make a list of exactly what I want in this game station
    Jul 24, 2015 5:17 PM - bamhm182: I keep changing my mind on things and running around in circles
    Jul 24, 2015 5:23 PM - bamhm182: Y'all ever watch the Adafruit product videos? It seems like the girl likes to talk and the guy's just sitting there like "fuck... why did I ask that question?"
    Jul 24, 2015 5:25 PM - bamhm182: Look at the guy while she rambles on about why the screen isn't a hat
    Jul 24, 2015 5:25 PM - Mike Glass: strange the fan is not that loud, its when its mounted the way it is with the grille that makes is scream.
    Jul 24, 2015 5:26 PM - bamhm182: She interrupts him at around 6:20 and he's just got this look on his face like "Oh... my... god... SHUT UP!"
    Jul 24, 2015 5:26 PM - bamhm182: Huh
    Jul 24, 2015 5:26 PM - bamhm182: I wonder what would happen if you just cut the grill out
    Jul 24, 2015 5:28 PM - Mike Glass: damn this noctua is nice
    Jul 24, 2015 5:28 PM - donhuevo: she is Lady Ada. it's her company
    Jul 24, 2015 5:34 PM - Mike Glass: wow that is quiet
    Jul 24, 2015 5:35 PM - donhuevo: you did your new z's?
    Jul 24, 2015 5:39 PM - Mike Glass: not yet, working on the ps fan
    Jul 24, 2015 5:39 PM - Mike Glass: HFnC wont come off
    Jul 24, 2015 5:39 PM - donhuevo: gnaw on it
    Jul 24, 2015 5:40 PM - jbigler1986: Why are you removing it?
    Jul 24, 2015 5:41 PM - Mike Glass: get to the screws
    Jul 24, 2015 5:41 PM - jbigler1986: Just unbolt the stepper. The whole thing will come out
    Jul 24, 2015 5:42 PM - bamhm182: Amazon says my package should be delivered before 8 PM. It's 8:45. If it's not going to get here today, I wish it would just tell me that...
    Jul 24, 2015 5:43 PM - jbigler1986: Takes a while to update sometimes. Call and bitch. Get some free stuff
    Jul 24, 2015 5:44 PM - bamhm182: Haha, this is late! I demand a new television!
    Jul 24, 2015 5:49 PM - bamhm182: Heard something big pull up, think it just got here
    Jul 24, 2015 5:53 PM - bamhm182: Crap... the breadboard I got is too small for the stepper drivers....
    Jul 24, 2015 5:54 PM - bamhm182: Wait, nevermind. I was just being stupid
    Jul 24, 2015 6:04 PM - bamhm182: Anyways, I'm out for the night. Later
    Jul 24, 2015 6:13 PM - bamhm182: Nevermind, I'll still be around
    Jul 24, 2015 6:17 PM - jbigler1986: About to be pc build time
    Jul 24, 2015 6:23 PM - jbigler1986: Send an invoice for it? Lol

    Jul 24, 2015 6:29 PM - jbigler1986: MG must be into tearing his robo apart
    Jul 24, 2015 6:36 PM - Mike Glass: half way there
    Jul 24, 2015 6:41 PM - Bill Monroe: tonight, the raccoons will pay...
    Jul 24, 2015 6:45 PM - Mike Kelly: howdy howdy howdy i'm a cowboy
    Jul 24, 2015 6:45 PM - Mike Kelly: so we got a BB gun at our cottage to shoot racoons and my dad was pretty drunk one night and we're pretty sure he shot a cat
    Jul 24, 2015 7:04 PM - bamhm182: Haha, cat probably had it coming
    Jul 24, 2015 7:06 PM - bamhm182: So the X and Y steppers seem to be pretty happy with 0.5 volts. The Z axis doesn't like 0.5 volts, so I was thinking "hey, two motors, let's try 1 volt" wasn't happy there either
    Jul 24, 2015 7:08 PM - bamhm182: Originally I had it at 0.86 volts and it seemed to be doing okay. How can I figure out where I need to set it?
    Jul 24, 2015 7:14 PM - Mike Glass: who puts nuts that close to a stepper.. geez
    Jul 24, 2015 7:14 PM - Mike Glass: .582
    Jul 24, 2015 7:17 PM - bamhm182: Haha
    Jul 24, 2015 7:18 PM - bamhm182: That what you have yours set to? Also, where'd you get that number from?
    Jul 24, 2015 7:24 PM - Mike Glass: a math teacher
    Jul 24, 2015 7:24 PM - Mike Glass: damn feet are too short
    Jul 24, 2015 7:24 PM - Mike Glass: need at least 20mm
    Jul 24, 2015 7:24 PM - Mike Glass: I printed the 10
    Jul 24, 2015 7:26 PM - bamhm182: Whoops
    Jul 24, 2015 7:28 PM - Mike Glass: [​IMG]
    Jul 24, 2015 7:32 PM - bamhm182: I like the R1 logo on the newer beds. Mine doesn't have that
    Jul 24, 2015 7:33 PM - Mike Glass: see the covers over the holes on the new threads and stabilizers
    Jul 24, 2015 7:34 PM - Mike Glass: Crap forgot to print out the ramps fan holder..
    Jul 24, 2015 7:35 PM - bamhm182: So you ended up going the route of just removing the bottom?
    Jul 24, 2015 7:38 PM - bamhm182:
    Jul 24, 2015 7:38 PM - Mike Glass: yep had to fan was too thick
    Jul 24, 2015 7:40 PM - bamhm182: found this video on the Polou DRV8825 website. It says for those stepper drivers, you should find the current per phase, divide it by two, and set the voltage to that, as long as it isn't over the maximum specs for the driver board
    Jul 24, 2015 7:41 PM - bamhm182: Found a handful of websites that agree that my steppers are 1.7A/Phase. Going to see what happens if I set them to .85
    Jul 24, 2015 7:52 PM - Mike Glass: think I just set the 2560 to 800, not sure if there is anything else I have to set.
    Jul 24, 2015 7:54 PM - jbigler1986: Nope
    Jul 24, 2015 7:55 PM - jbigler1986: Test the motors before putting it all back together
    Jul 24, 2015 7:55 PM - Mike Glass: ugg about hosed it all, laptop died before uploading..
    Jul 24, 2015 7:57 PM - Mike Glass: oh man that is so much quieter
    Jul 24, 2015 7:57 PM - bamhm182: I would imagine
    Jul 24, 2015 7:58 PM - Mike Glass: mine used to vibrate like hell
    Jul 24, 2015 8:00 PM - Mike Glass: who has a good ramps fan
    Jul 24, 2015 8:00 PM - Mike Glass: mount
    Jul 24, 2015 8:00 PM - donhuevo: congrats!
    Jul 24, 2015 8:01 PM - Mike Glass: havent put the top on yet
    Jul 24, 2015 8:05 PM - donhuevo: I say let it all hang out for a while
    Jul 24, 2015 8:06 PM - Mike Glass: just trying to find a fan mount for the ramps
    Jul 24, 2015 8:06 PM - donhuevo: what size fan?
    Jul 24, 2015 8:06 PM - donhuevo: 40?
    Jul 24, 2015 8:06 PM - Mike Glass: the loudest thing now is that stupid 25mm hotend fan that suckers the loudest now. geez
    Jul 24, 2015 8:06 PM - Mike Glass: 40 mm
    Jul 24, 2015 8:07 PM - donhuevo: I went this rout
    Jul 24, 2015 8:07 PM - donhuevo: e http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:46254
    Jul 24, 2015 8:08 PM - donhuevo: not saying it's the best one out there but it stays where I put it
    Jul 24, 2015 8:09 PM - Mike Glass: squinty is holding up now..lol [​IMG]
    Jul 24, 2015 8:09 PM - donhuevo: you can tell by his face he doesn't like that much
    Jul 24, 2015 8:12 PM - bamhm182: haha
    Jul 24, 2015 8:15 PM - Mike Glass: wish I could use one of these blower fans, but they ended being 5 volts
    Jul 24, 2015 8:17 PM - bamhm182: What's the one on the hotend?
    Jul 24, 2015 8:17 PM - bamhm182: 12?
    Jul 24, 2015 8:18 PM - Mike Glass: they are all 12 I believe
    Jul 24, 2015 8:18 PM - donhuevo: yep
    Jul 24, 2015 8:18 PM - bamhm182: Also, what do you have your single stepper drivers set at again? 0.291?
    Jul 24, 2015 8:18 PM - donhuevo: there is no reliable 5v source on a ramps
    Jul 24, 2015 8:18 PM - Mike Glass: .285
    Jul 24, 2015 8:18 PM - bamhm182: I just need to get around to doing MK's carriage
    Jul 24, 2015 8:18 PM - donhuevo: I had to get a buck converter to have constant 5v
    Jul 24, 2015 8:19 PM - bamhm182: It's got two spots for 40mm fans
    Jul 24, 2015 8:19 PM - Mike Glass: I do have some lm317 I could make a 12 to 5v convertor
    Jul 24, 2015 8:19 PM - Mike Glass: what are you running don on 5volts
    Jul 24, 2015 8:20 PM - bamhm182: I don't know how that's powerful enough...
    Jul 24, 2015 8:20 PM - donhuevo: just the neopixels
    Jul 24, 2015 8:21 PM - bamhm182: I set them all to .85 and am printing out a calibration pyramid right now. I'll change them to .285 and .582 once it finishes and print another one
    Jul 24, 2015 8:21 PM - bamhm182: I need to start printing benchys for my test runs. I have too damn many of these pyramids. Haha
    Jul 24, 2015 8:23 PM - Mike Glass: man it sounds so different on the z now, love it
    Jul 24, 2015 8:23 PM - donhuevo: now it's time to make squinty happy
    Jul 24, 2015 8:31 PM - donhuevo: [​IMG]
    Jul 24, 2015 8:32 PM - bamhm182: How'd your one you printed turn out?
    Jul 24, 2015 8:33 PM - donhuevo: not exactly quiet but lots of air in the direction I wanted. so really good
    Jul 24, 2015 8:34 PM - bamhm182: Nice
    Jul 24, 2015 8:36 PM - donhuevo: I'm hoping I'll only need to run it at 100% for bridging. Won't know til I start using it
    Jul 24, 2015 8:48 PM - Mike Glass: sweet, why dont you make a complet round one?
    Jul 24, 2015 8:49 PM - donhuevo: need to let the wires out
    Jul 24, 2015 8:50 PM - donhuevo: and the heaterblock and nozzle aren't centered on each other
    Jul 24, 2015 8:50 PM - Mike Glass: ah, go wireless it the in thing
    Jul 24, 2015 8:51 PM - bamhm182: Haha
    Jul 24, 2015 8:51 PM - donhuevo: good thinkin'
    Jul 24, 2015 8:51 PM - Mike Glass: that plate really cleans it up nice. [​IMG]
    Jul 24, 2015 8:52 PM - Mike Glass: I hated those robo z stabilizers they where all stressed cracked
    Jul 24, 2015 8:52 PM - donhuevo: pretty
    Jul 24, 2015 8:53 PM - Mike Glass: was thinking about light them..lol, I did notice when I plugged in my case lights all the fans ran higher?
    Jul 24, 2015 8:54 PM - donhuevo: yep
    Jul 24, 2015 8:54 PM - Mike Glass: why is that?
    Jul 24, 2015 8:55 PM - donhuevo: they do that when the heaters kick in too. may be sensing draw?
    Jul 24, 2015 8:55 PM - bamhm182: Well, .85 is definitely too high
    Jul 24, 2015 8:56 PM - Mike Glass: .85?
    Jul 24, 2015 8:56 PM - bamhm182: The motors didn't get dangerously hot or fail, but they were hotter than I would have liked for them to be. The drivers were all at fine temperatures
    Jul 24, 2015 8:57 PM - Mike Glass: .6 should really be the highest
    Jul 24, 2015 8:58 PM - bamhm182: Yeah, internet said the motors I have operate at 1.7 Amps per phase and Pololu said that for my drivers, you should set them to be half of the amps per phase
    Jul 24, 2015 8:58 PM - Mike Glass: holy crap these fan mounts are turning out nice
    Jul 24, 2015 8:59 PM - bamhm182: Going to change them to your .285 and .582 and print another one
    Jul 24, 2015 8:59 PM - bamhm182: That seems to me like it would be too low though... But I guess if that's what you're running, I'm wrong
    Jul 24, 2015 9:00 PM - Mike Glass: thats on big steppers also, bigger then the robo. and they run so smooth

    Jul 24, 2015 9:02 PM - donhuevo: I just looked up my omc order and I've had my linear steppers for over a year now
    Jul 24, 2015 9:02 PM - Mike Glass: I've had my for an hour installed now..lol
    Jul 24, 2015 9:03 PM - donhuevo: all I can say is it's about effin' time mine got company
    Jul 24, 2015 9:03 PM - Mike Glass: I dunno was just wondering if I should change, maybe help some ringing
    Jul 24, 2015 9:03 PM - bamhm182: Haha
    Jul 24, 2015 9:03 PM - donhuevo: what's your xy acceleration at now?
    Jul 24, 2015 9:05 PM - Mike Glass: 9000,9000,100,10000
    Jul 24, 2015 9:06 PM - Mike Glass: that is the max
    Jul 24, 2015 9:06 PM - Mike Glass: default ist 1300
    Jul 24, 2015 9:07 PM - donhuevo: here's mine... [​IMG]
    Jul 24, 2015 9:08 PM - Mike Glass: wow thats a big differnce
    Jul 24, 2015 9:08 PM - donhuevo: that's only part of it. I've bumped up all my speeds except the outer perimeter. that I run around 40
    Jul 24, 2015 9:09 PM - Mike Glass: what about ya jerk
    Jul 24, 2015 9:09 PM - Mike Glass: guess that depends on print speed though
    Jul 24, 2015 9:10 PM - donhuevo: yep. should be 20-30% of your print speed. jerk is in that pic too
    Jul 24, 2015 9:11 PM - donhuevo: you're still throwing an extruder motor around everytime you make a direction change w/ the carriage too right?
    Jul 24, 2015 9:12 PM - Mike Glass: true so maybe not till I do that
    Jul 24, 2015 9:12 PM - donhuevo: it's even more important you drop your acceleration because of that extra inertia
    Jul 24, 2015 9:14 PM - Mike Glass: so I should drop it?
    Jul 24, 2015 9:16 PM - donhuevo: try replacing the 3 settings where I have 800
    Jul 24, 2015 9:16 PM - donhuevo: you can always change it back but I think you're gonna like it
    Jul 24, 2015 9:18 PM - Mike Glass: why do I have extra screws left, besides the on bottom case..
    Jul 24, 2015 9:18 PM - donhuevo: ummmm
    Jul 24, 2015 9:18 PM - donhuevo: well.....
    Jul 24, 2015 9:18 PM - bamhm182: You bowden, don?
    Jul 24, 2015 9:18 PM - donhuevo: I am
    Jul 24, 2015 9:19 PM - donhuevo: I don't have much robo left on my machine
    Jul 24, 2015 9:19 PM - bamhm182: Haha
    Jul 24, 2015 9:19 PM - donhuevo: everything above the bed is my own creation
    Jul 24, 2015 9:22 PM - bamhm182: I think that .285 will work for the single motors, but the z motors sound weird with .582
    Jul 24, 2015 9:23 PM - donhuevo: .528?
    Jul 24, 2015 9:24 PM - bamhm182: Whoops
    Jul 24, 2015 9:24 PM - bamhm182: Wait, MG said .582
    Jul 24, 2015 9:24 PM - donhuevo: you've been rearranging the same 3 numbers. I'm just chiming in with a permutation I haven't seen yet
    Jul 24, 2015 9:25 PM - donhuevo: the way I learned stepper tuning was to run them and turn the pot up until just past stalling
    Jul 24, 2015 9:26 PM - donhuevo: never bothered with the Vref
    Jul 24, 2015 9:27 PM - bamhm182: There's so many different schools of thought with this stuff
    Jul 24, 2015 9:27 PM - donhuevo: very true
    Jul 24, 2015 9:27 PM - donhuevo: not saying my way is right but if your motors are loud, the voltage is probably too high
    Jul 24, 2015 9:27 PM - donhuevo: and they'll most likely heat up
    Jul 24, 2015 9:27 PM - bamhm182: Oddly enough, they were quiet when they were at .85
    Jul 24, 2015 9:28 PM - donhuevo: run them at .85 a while and keep an eye on their temp
    Jul 24, 2015 9:28 PM - bamhm182: They were definitely hotter than I would have liked them to be
    Jul 24, 2015 9:28 PM - donhuevo: hmmm
    Jul 24, 2015 9:29 PM - donhuevo: maybe somewhere in between .58 and .85
    Jul 24, 2015 9:29 PM - bamhm182: Not as hot as when I gave my extruder WAY too much voltage and started to warp it, but definitely hot
    Jul 24, 2015 9:29 PM - donhuevo: I think I'm smitten with Halestorm's new CD
    Jul 24, 2015 9:29 PM - donhuevo: if you can keep your hand on it, it's acceptable
    Jul 24, 2015 9:29 PM - bamhm182: Into the Wild Life?
    Jul 24, 2015 9:30 PM - donhuevo: yes
    Jul 24, 2015 9:30 PM - bamhm182: I'll have to give it a listen
    Jul 24, 2015 9:30 PM - donhuevo: one of the few decent female rock singers around right now.
    Jul 24, 2015 9:31 PM - bamhm182: I was over at a friend's a while back and she had pandora on. Halestorm was playing a lot and I kept saying that I loved a song and every time it would be them, haha
    Jul 24, 2015 9:32 PM - donhuevo: I have most of their older stuff. kinda like Nickelback with breasts
    Jul 24, 2015 9:32 PM - donhuevo: nice ones
    Jul 24, 2015 9:32 PM - bamhm182: Haha
    Jul 24, 2015 9:32 PM - donhuevo: see if you can find 'Apocalyptic'
    Jul 24, 2015 9:32 PM - bamhm182: Good lord... I have a new celebrity crush
    Jul 24, 2015 9:33 PM - donhuevo: yep
    Jul 24, 2015 9:34 PM - bamhm182: I think I've finally decided on a screen for the Pi game station I'm going to be building
    Jul 24, 2015 9:34 PM - bamhm182: https://www.adafruit.com/products/1932
    Jul 24, 2015 9:34 PM - bamhm182: https://www.adafruit.com/products/1680
    Jul 24, 2015 9:35 PM - bamhm182: $40 and 5" but no touch screen, but I was originally looking at touch screens, but I don't need it since it's just going to play emulators
    Jul 24, 2015 9:36 PM - donhuevo: that oughta do the trick
    Jul 24, 2015 9:38 PM - bamhm182: I want the look of it to be very similar to a gameboy DMG, and 5" is going to mean that it's going to have to be bigger, but it shouldn't be TOO much bigger
    Jul 24, 2015 9:39 PM - donhuevo: it's not like you're doing this with a 10" tablet screen. you're good.
    Jul 24, 2015 9:40 PM - Mike Glass: that fan mount dont fit..lol
    Jul 24, 2015 9:40 PM - donhuevo: how so?
    Jul 24, 2015 9:40 PM - donhuevo: you printed it wrong
    Jul 24, 2015 9:41 PM - jbigler1986: Lol
    Jul 24, 2015 9:42 PM - Mike Glass: its to low dont fit over all the wires
    Jul 24, 2015 9:43 PM - bamhm182: Now to decide how I want to do the sound. I want a speaker and I want a headphone jack. I also want something physical to change the volume. I couldn't find any flat pots that I liked, so I think I'm going to end up going with a knob
    Jul 24, 2015 9:44 PM - donhuevo: [​IMG]
    Jul 24, 2015 9:44 PM - donhuevo: now granted my fan is off, but you can see how the wires are laying
    Jul 24, 2015 9:45 PM - Mike Glass: yea mine have all that pvc coating
    Jul 24, 2015 9:45 PM - bamhm182: .285 is too low for the extruder. Think I'm going to turn up that and the z
    Jul 24, 2015 9:46 PM - bamhm182: You've got quite a bit more going on then I do
    Jul 24, 2015 9:46 PM - donhuevo: you can move the wires enough
    Jul 24, 2015 9:46 PM - jbigler1986: MG. Psu fan was 60mm?
    Jul 24, 2015 9:47 PM - Mike Glass: yea but 25 mm was too thick so flipped the psu around and mounted the fan on the outside
    Jul 24, 2015 9:48 PM - jbigler1986: So a thin 60mm fan
    Jul 24, 2015 9:48 PM - bamhm182: The stock one is 15mm
    Jul 24, 2015 9:48 PM - Mike Glass: now I need to printer bigger feet, but it is way quieter now, except the 25mm hotend fan
    Jul 24, 2015 9:48 PM - bamhm182: I bet you could get away with a 20mm one, but it would be close
    Jul 24, 2015 9:48 PM - Mike Glass: yea I think 20 mm would of worked
    Jul 24, 2015 9:48 PM - bamhm182: I couldn't find a thin one that I liked, so I'm going the same route as MG
    Jul 24, 2015 9:49 PM - Mike Glass: you dont even hear that noctua fan running
    Jul 24, 2015 9:49 PM - donhuevo: what'd that run you?
    Jul 24, 2015 9:49 PM - Mike Glass: $13
    Jul 24, 2015 9:49 PM - donhuevo: that's not all that bad
    Jul 24, 2015 9:49 PM - Mike Glass: no not at all, usually they are 25
    Jul 24, 2015 9:50 PM - donhuevo: that's approaching bad
    Jul 24, 2015 9:50 PM - Mike Glass: they are up to $15 now
    Jul 24, 2015 9:52 PM - donhuevo: the new carriage I'm working on is still using a 30 for the hot end
    Jul 24, 2015 9:52 PM - Mike Glass: well I guess I can hear it little bit but if you cut a hole in the psu it would be silent, its just the way the holes make it louder.
    Jul 24, 2015 9:52 PM - Mike Glass: yeah thats what I used also
    Jul 24, 2015 9:53 PM - donhuevo: I think the smaller the fan, the harder it is to balance maybe?
    Jul 24, 2015 9:53 PM - Mike Glass: higher pitch sound too
    Jul 24, 2015 9:54 PM - donhuevo: yep
    Jul 24, 2015 9:56 PM - Mike Glass: [​IMG]

    Jul 24, 2015 9:58 PM - Mike Glass: on the fuses?
    Jul 24, 2015 9:58 PM - donhuevo: just below the fuses
    Jul 24, 2015 9:59 PM - donhuevo: because any lower and there's a bunch of wires in my way
    Jul 24, 2015 10:01 PM - Mike Glass: yea just no way on this with the connectors used.
    Jul 24, 2015 10:01 PM - bamhm182: I should toss a small noctua fan in this piboy so I can overclock it
    Jul 24, 2015 10:02 PM - donhuevo: water-cooled
    Jul 24, 2015 10:02 PM - bamhm182: lmao
    Jul 24, 2015 10:02 PM - bamhm182: perfect!
    Jul 24, 2015 10:06 PM - Mike Glass: im gonna cut the grill out on the ps see the diffrence in sound
    Jul 24, 2015 10:06 PM - jbigler1986: mmmmm, cheese

    Jul 24, 2015 10:07 PM - jbigler1986: look at MG go, cutting up the robo?

    Jul 24, 2015 10:09 PM - donhuevo: maybe a little
    Jul 24, 2015 10:09 PM - jbigler1986: a lot
    Jul 24, 2015 10:09 PM - donhuevo: throughout history, people have tried to bang some strange things
    Jul 24, 2015 10:11 PM - jbigler1986: ha. yeah. i was watching some er show and a guy got his dict stuck in a portable camping grill
    Jul 24, 2015 10:12 PM - donhuevo: I'm going to go to Walmart one night and take a poll
    Jul 24, 2015 10:12 PM - donhuevo: what's the strangest thing you've tried to have sex with
    Jul 24, 2015 10:12 PM - jbigler1986: lol. u will hear crazy answers
    Jul 24, 2015 10:13 PM - jbigler1986: i have never tried to bang anything besides a women
    Jul 24, 2015 10:13 PM - donhuevo: If they're embarrassed, I'll tell them I have this friend who did his 3d printer
    Jul 24, 2015 10:13 PM - jbigler1986: ha
    Jul 24, 2015 10:14 PM - donhuevo: first he drilled a hole in it then said fuck it
    Jul 24, 2015 10:14 PM - donhuevo: they'll open right up
    Jul 24, 2015 10:14 PM - jbigler1986: oh man. first the dict now this
    Jul 24, 2015 10:15 PM - donhuevo: you did give your printer a girl's name, yes?
    Jul 24, 2015 10:15 PM - jbigler1986: i never actually named it
    Jul 24, 2015 10:15 PM - donhuevo: just effin with you jb. I'm half asleep
    Jul 24, 2015 10:15 PM - jbigler1986: gonna have to use some kind of MIA person name once i get it back
    Jul 24, 2015 10:18 PM - jbigler1986: have you tested the dict
    Jul 24, 2015 10:19 PM - donhuevo: dict was tested. the little tweak to the opening did the trick
    Jul 24, 2015 10:19 PM - donhuevo: added some screw ears to it as well
    Jul 24, 2015 10:19 PM - bamhm182: I'm glad I'm not into fucking my printer.
    Jul 24, 2015 10:19 PM - jbigler1986: got a pic
    Jul 24, 2015 10:19 PM - bamhm182: It's name is Robo-Rob,
    Jul 24, 2015 10:20 PM - donhuevo: did you see the cutaway up above?
    Jul 24, 2015 10:20 PM - donhuevo: bright red. can't miss it
    Jul 24, 2015 10:21 PM - Mike Glass: ok its cut out
    Jul 24, 2015 10:21 PM - donhuevo: just to better see the vent
    Jul 24, 2015 10:22 PM - jbigler1986: nice
    Jul 24, 2015 10:22 PM - donhuevo: at 100% it's noisy. not gonna lie but I don't think I'll need to run it at 100% very often
    Jul 24, 2015 10:23 PM - jbigler1986: installing windows 8.1 on this pc
    Jul 24, 2015 10:23 PM - donhuevo: 7 ultimate still gets you 10 for free
    Jul 24, 2015 10:23 PM - jbigler1986: well not the one i'm on at the moment
    Jul 24, 2015 10:24 PM - jbigler1986: well i get them all free

    Jul 24, 2015 10:25 PM - donhuevo: I have 8.1 on a tablet but don't think I'd like it on a pc

    Jul 24, 2015 10:25 PM - Mike Glass: awe very nice
    Jul 24, 2015 10:25 PM - jbigler1986: yeah he is a pretty generous guy
    Jul 24, 2015 10:26 PM - bamhm182: I never had any version of 8 installed on anything for more than a day. I hate it
    Jul 24, 2015 10:26 PM - Mike Glass: that was a huge difference
    Jul 24, 2015 10:26 PM - bamhm182: Stuck with 7 until 7 had issues with this 5 TB hard drive and then I updated to the 10 technical preview. It's awesome
    Jul 24, 2015 10:26 PM - jbigler1986: take s a little getting used to. but it's pretty good
    Jul 24, 2015 10:27 PM - Mike Glass: now I need a better fan for the ramps..lol
    Jul 24, 2015 10:27 PM - bamhm182: I've still got 7 on this media laptop hooked up to my projector, but it's getting a clean install of 10 soon
    Jul 24, 2015 10:27 PM - donhuevo: just a few more days, right?
    Jul 24, 2015 10:28 PM - bamhm182: *cough cough* http://www.amazon.com/40x10mm-Beari...F8&qid=1437802217&sr=8-1&keywords=40mm+noctua *cough cough*

    Jul 24, 2015 10:31 PM - bamhm182: Could go that route. I went 40mm since that's stock
    Jul 24, 2015 10:31 PM - donhuevo: plenty of room for a radial
    Jul 24, 2015 10:31 PM - Mike Glass: I actually orded a 60x10 today for a replacement in case this one didnt work.. oh well
    Jul 24, 2015 10:32 PM - donhuevo: another noctua?
    Jul 24, 2015 10:32 PM - Mike Glass: no just a cheap psu stock one
    Jul 24, 2015 10:32 PM - Mike Glass: it was $7
    Jul 24, 2015 10:33 PM - jbigler1986: ugh. 8.1 wont fit on this flash drive
    Jul 24, 2015 10:33 PM - jbigler1986: damnit

    Jul 24, 2015 10:34 PM - jbigler1986: 7 will
    Jul 24, 2015 10:34 PM - Mike Glass: 2000 would
    Jul 24, 2015 10:34 PM - donhuevo: 3.11
    Jul 24, 2015 10:34 PM - bamhm182: 8675309
    Jul 24, 2015 10:35 PM - jbigler1986: 2000, lol
    Jul 24, 2015 10:35 PM - donhuevo: it was solid
    Jul 24, 2015 10:35 PM - Mike Glass: best dam no crap os that ever was.
    Jul 24, 2015 10:36 PM - donhuevo: I was sorry to see XP put to sleep
    Jul 24, 2015 10:38 PM - Mike Glass: xp was 2k with all the firewall and network bandwith crap
    Jul 24, 2015 10:38 PM - Mike Glass: xp sucked cause it limited your connections
    Jul 24, 2015 10:40 PM - Mike Glass: kinda neat about this upgrade the z is always locked
    Jul 24, 2015 10:40 PM - donhuevo: Vista made XP look like the best thing ever
    Jul 24, 2015 10:40 PM - Mike Glass: you can tip your machine upside down and the z wont slip off.
    Jul 24, 2015 10:40 PM - jbigler1986: vista was a funny joke
    Jul 24, 2015 10:40 PM - donhuevo: the motors can't relax with the autolevel
    Jul 24, 2015 10:41 PM - Mike Glass: Vista was a joke
    Jul 24, 2015 10:41 PM - donhuevo: oh, that
    Jul 24, 2015 10:41 PM - Mike Glass: when its off even
    Jul 24, 2015 10:42 PM - Mike Glass: it has like a 3 mm movement range now
    Jul 24, 2015 10:42 PM - donhuevo: that's cool
    Jul 24, 2015 10:43 PM - Mike Glass: think my z offset is off now but not by much

    Jul 24, 2015 10:44 PM - Mike Glass: guess I should print taller feet now
    Jul 24, 2015 10:45 PM - donhuevo: I'm gonna have to sign off now. I'm done
    Jul 24, 2015 10:45 PM - Mike Glass: yep, gonna let this run and head for bed, night all
    Jul 24, 2015 10:46 PM - donhuevo: I'm sure I'll bump into you tomorrow
    Jul 24, 2015 10:46 PM - Mike Glass: : ;)
    Jul 24, 2015 10:47 PM - bamhm182: By the way, MG, did you know you have to update the steps?
    Jul 24, 2015 10:47 PM - bamhm182: It's 1600 now
    Jul 24, 2015 10:47 PM - Mike Glass: lol not its 800
    Jul 24, 2015 10:48 PM - jbigler1986: 1200
    Jul 24, 2015 10:48 PM - bamhm182: Oh wait, i forgot. It's 1600 for me because of my 1/32 drivers
    Jul 24, 2015 10:49 PM - bamhm182: I'm honestly a little scared about the new switch holders. I don't know what's going to happen if filament binds up. I don't want to have my whole printer try to climb the filament, haha
    Jul 24, 2015 10:49 PM - Mike Glass: yea but it wont slam and destroy the switches anymore
    Jul 24, 2015 10:50 PM - Mike Glass: the filament should break before that gives out
    Jul 24, 2015 10:51 PM - Mike Glass: I have really not had any issues filament binding
    Jul 24, 2015 10:53 PM - bamhm182: I usually don't
    Jul 24, 2015 10:53 PM - bamhm182: But it's a thing that does happen sometimes
    Jul 24, 2015 11:15 PM - Mike Glass: Effin power just went out
    Jul 24, 2015 11:15 PM - Mike Glass: Just started a print too
    Jul 24, 2015 11:17 PM - bamhm182: Sonova
    Jul 24, 2015 11:21 PM - Mike Glass: No storms or nuthin the whole valley is out
    Jul 24, 2015 11:25 PM - bamhm182: Weird
    Jul 24, 2015 11:30 PM - Mike Glass: Ok this sucks, now I know how Daniel feels
    Jul 25, 2015 3:22 AM - Bill Monroe: good morning
    Jul 25, 2015 5:01 AM - jbigler1986: Morning

    Jul 25, 2015 5:02 AM - jbigler1986: Pretty good.
    Jul 25, 2015 5:02 AM - Bill Monroe: neat
    Jul 25, 2015 5:02 AM - jbigler1986: Not asking for mama at all
    Jul 25, 2015 5:02 AM - Bill Monroe: sounds familiar
    Jul 25, 2015 5:03 AM - jbigler1986: How are you this morning
    Jul 25, 2015 5:40 AM - Mike Glass: Meh
    Jul 25, 2015 5:46 AM - jbigler1986: Oh snap. MG is up early again
    Jul 25, 2015 5:49 AM - Mike Glass: power came back on
    Jul 25, 2015 6:00 AM - jbigler1986: Nice. So testing now
    Jul 25, 2015 6:02 AM - Mike Glass: designing something to fit on these feet to make them taller
    Jul 25, 2015 6:05 AM - jbigler1986: Cant you just scale the feet on z axis
    Jul 25, 2015 6:06 AM - Mike Glass: yea but dont want to print another 6 hours
    Jul 25, 2015 6:14 AM - jbigler1986: Bowden and cut the time in half
    Jul 25, 2015 6:21 AM - donhuevo: morning
    Jul 25, 2015 6:21 AM - Mike Glass: yoyo
    Jul 25, 2015 6:23 AM - jbigler1986: Morning don

    Jul 25, 2015 6:43 AM - donhuevo: nothing yet. thinking about carriage changes
    Jul 25, 2015 6:45 AM - Mike Glass: haha, im starting a print now at 80mm
    Jul 25, 2015 6:45 AM - daniel871: Robo firmware for dual is flashed, now doing the mechanical stuff. Looks so sad all gutted and wires laying everywhere.
    Jul 25, 2015 6:46 AM - donhuevo: mg, did you change up the acceleration?
    Jul 25, 2015 6:46 AM - Mike Glass: yeah
    Jul 25, 2015 6:47 AM - Mike Glass: printing a pacman shape circle
    Jul 25, 2015 6:47 AM - Mike Glass: so should give me good reference
    Jul 25, 2015 6:47 AM - donhuevo: definitely
    Jul 25, 2015 6:48 AM - donhuevo: now that the fans are quieter, you'll be able to better hear your motors
    Jul 25, 2015 6:48 AM - Mike Glass: they sound way different the the stock ones for sure
    Jul 25, 2015 6:53 AM - Mike Glass: had to up the temp at this speed.
    Jul 25, 2015 6:54 AM - donhuevo: how do the direction changes sound
    Jul 25, 2015 6:55 AM - Mike Glass: different, it makes music now
    Jul 25, 2015 6:56 AM - donhuevo: more robot, less pinball
    Jul 25, 2015 6:56 AM - Mike Glass: yea I suppose
    Jul 25, 2015 6:57 AM - donhuevo: reducing stresses on all the parts involved has to be good for it too
    Jul 25, 2015 7:00 AM - Mike Glass: uploading a video
    Jul 25, 2015 7:05 AM - Mike Glass:
    Jul 25, 2015 7:09 AM - jbigler1986: Love the sounds at higher speeds
    Jul 25, 2015 7:10 AM - Mike Glass: haha, my part was not above the bed so it only printed half of it. I was like my z steps are way off..lol
    Jul 25, 2015 7:11 AM - donhuevo: you should definitely be able to increase your speed numbers because it'll still deccelerate better. It just means that in the middle of your longer straight runs, it'll reach a higher peak speed
    Jul 25, 2015 7:13 AM - Mike Glass: The feed rate?
    Jul 25, 2015 7:14 AM - donhuevo: no. I think the feed rate can affect the acceleration too. the Benny Hill Effect
    Jul 25, 2015 7:14 AM - donhuevo: up your inner perimeter, infill etc speeds
    Jul 25, 2015 7:14 AM - Mike Glass: my feedrate is at 500, yours is at 2500
    Jul 25, 2015 7:16 AM - donhuevo: max feedrate in firmware. it's an upper cap and really doesn't mean anything
    Jul 25, 2015 7:16 AM - donhuevo: I thought you were talking about the feedrate in manual controls during a print
    Jul 25, 2015 7:17 AM - Mike Glass: oh.. yeah I was printing that at 80, didnt change the infill or outer perimeter speeds
    Jul 25, 2015 7:19 AM - donhuevo: I'm actually NOT happy to say my dict is too big
    Jul 25, 2015 7:20 AM - donhuevo: didn't account for the heating element being 1/4" longer than needed
    Jul 25, 2015 7:22 AM - donhuevo: one step forward ten steps back
    Jul 25, 2015 7:23 AM - Mike Glass: darn
    Jul 25, 2015 7:23 AM - donhuevo: and then some
    Jul 25, 2015 7:23 AM - Mike Glass: ok ludicris speed to 90
    Jul 25, 2015 7:24 AM - jbigler1986: That sucks. Back to the drawing board
    Jul 25, 2015 7:24 AM - donhuevo: yep
    Jul 25, 2015 7:32 AM - donhuevo: [​IMG]
    Jul 25, 2015 7:33 AM - Mike Glass: why wont that work?
    Jul 25, 2015 7:34 AM - donhuevo: the heating element is too long
    Jul 25, 2015 7:34 AM - Mike Glass: oh gotcha
    Jul 25, 2015 7:35 AM - Mike Glass: should I change my jerk settings if printing over 80
    Jul 25, 2015 7:35 AM - donhuevo: what's your jerk at now?
    Jul 25, 2015 7:36 AM - Mike Glass: 17 I think
    Jul 25, 2015 7:36 AM - donhuevo: maybe up it to 25
    Jul 25, 2015 7:38 AM - donhuevo: I got the 'jerk should be 20-30% of print speed' from MK's German Tom
    Jul 25, 2015 7:41 AM - Mike Glass: ok, will try that on the next one, I noticed my corners look alot better now, dont have the pillar look to them as much
    Jul 25, 2015 7:41 AM - donhuevo: yep. for the ringing, I kept lowering my outer perimeter speed until I found an acceptable level
    Jul 25, 2015 7:42 AM - donhuevo: I'm ok with the printer going bat-shit crazy inside the part.
    Jul 25, 2015 7:42 AM - donhuevo: my infill speed is currently at 150
    Jul 25, 2015 7:43 AM - donhuevo: my travel has been 300 but it's 200 now
    Jul 25, 2015 7:46 AM - Mike Glass: I dont like how s3d uses the % underspeed settings for its speed settings
    Jul 25, 2015 7:47 AM - donhuevo: mm/min is cumbersome too
    Jul 25, 2015 7:48 AM - donhuevo: I do like the quality of its support though. now I'm thinking of integrating the dict into the carriage
    Jul 25, 2015 7:49 AM - Mike Glass: Your killing me
    Jul 25, 2015 7:49 AM - donhuevo: haha. sorry. I think they're about to have a baby
    Jul 25, 2015 7:53 AM - Mike Glass: my time was 6min longer then what s3d said, so anoying
    Jul 25, 2015 7:56 AM - donhuevo: that's the one down-side to the acceleration change.
