Oct 8, 2015 at 8:31 AM - Mike Kelly: isn't big enough
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:32 AM - Mike Glass: as long as you mark it as a sample, you can get it shipped in 7 days.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:32 AM - daniel871: "We didn't get it on the boat from X port today, next boat coming your way will be in three weeks" kind of stuff.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:32 AM - daniel871: Or "Port is closed due to random holiday we have over here that you don't celebrate, sorry"
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:32 AM - Mike Glass: what port you talking MK, east or west coast?
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:32 AM - jbigler1986: not 3-6 months
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:33 AM - jbigler1986: takes about 30-45 days
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:33 AM - NFOsec: west for MK for sure.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:33 AM - NFOsec: he'll drive.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:34 AM - jbigler1986: deal with international containers being shipped all of the time
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:34 AM - NFOsec: I'd suggest going to cuba and asking them to take you.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:34 AM - Mike Glass: There is a member here that works at a west coast port, he would know.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:34 AM - NFOsec: yeah, key is good documentation, customs, etc. right jb?
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:35 AM - jbigler1986: and the ports not being on strike
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:35 AM - jbigler1986: that was a nightmare like a year ago
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:36 AM - Mike Glass: they just hirer the illegals now
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:36 AM - jbigler1986:
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:36 AM - jbigler1986: that was during the last strike
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:38 AM - Mike Glass: NFO, going to try jean material to laser tonight.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:41 AM - jbigler1986: what are you going to laser on it
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:42 AM - Mike Glass: snake skin
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:42 AM - daniel871: Why should I hold off on buying bondtech?
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:43 AM - jbigler1986: snake skin, jean material? IS this the 80's?
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:43 AM - Mike Glass: its always the 80's
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:44 AM - toymaker: morning =)
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:45 AM - Mike Kelly: east coast, going to egypt
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:45 AM - Mike Kelly: we think we want to ship it on a 53' trailer with a max height of around 14'
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:46 AM - Mike Kelly: i'm just not convinced that's something that can be done
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:46 AM - Mike Kelly: sup toy
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:46 AM - Mattchu: morning all.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:46 AM - Mattchu: MG or NFO around?
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:47 AM - Mike Glass: nope
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:47 AM - Mike Kelly: sup matt
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:47 AM - Mattchu: well dang!
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:47 AM - Mattchu: not much MK! you find your beer I hope?
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:47 AM - Mike Glass: lol hey Matt
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:47 AM - toymaker: im starting to turn back into a morning person =\
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:47 AM - Mike Glass: Toy
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:47 AM - Mike Kelly: you know i don't know if she went by or not
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:47 AM - toymaker: yes sir
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:48 AM - Mike Glass: hows the metal robo
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:48 AM - Mattchu: you should ask. this is probably the most important moment of the year!
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:48 AM - Mattchu: MG, with your laser...are you able to control depth of cut?
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:48 AM - Mattchu: and essentially laser a 3D image?
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:48 AM - toymaker: im still have yet to mount the new bed =\ but i found someone to pay for it
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:49 AM - Mike Glass: yes by changing the power basically.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:49 AM - Mattchu: or at least, 2.5D (like the 3D printer to an extent)
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:49 AM - toymaker: i was lookin for a boro glass around 10 x15 "
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:49 AM - NFOsec: Matt.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:49 AM - Mattchu: NFO!
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:50 AM - NFOsec: Matt, power of laser and speed of laser are two factors to change depth.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:50 AM - Mattchu: got ya
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:50 AM - Mattchu: so on the drawing I'd change the power on certain lines then?
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:50 AM - NFOsec: 50% power at 100mm sec vs. 50% power at 5mm sec would yield completely different results.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:50 AM - jbigler1986: awesome skills. Lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:51 AM - NFOsec: yeah, that's what you do.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:51 AM - NFOsec: you can color-code those lines. also, for CUTTING, it's imperative the lines are hairlines.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:51 AM - NFOsec: otherwise it'll just try to burn a wide line through sometimes resulting in cuts.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:52 AM - jbigler1986: lmao at that trucker
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:52 AM - NFOsec: probably wasn't even his truck therefore didn't care.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:52 AM - NFOsec: a true truck owner would get the trailer separated.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:54 AM - Mattchu: okay...then yeah, definitely want then, NFO. debate now is do I want the 200x300 machine to start with, or go for it and get the 300x500
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:54 AM - Mike Glass: what an effin idiot.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:54 AM - Mike Glass: 600x1000
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:55 AM - Mattchu: you buying it for me MG?
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:55 AM - Mike Glass: No NFO does the financing
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:55 AM - NFOsec: what an effin idiot.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:55 AM - Mattchu: =-p
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:55 AM - Mattchu: thanks NFO!
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:55 AM - NFOsec: 900x1800
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:56 AM - Mike Kelly: 1800x3600
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:56 AM - Mike Kelly: what are we doing here
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:56 AM - Mattchu: look, you get me a 900x1800, I"ll find a home for it. but you're paying for it
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:56 AM - NFOsec: 3600x4800
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:56 AM - NFOsec: MK: coming up with abstract bed sizes for a "laser".
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:56 AM - NFOsec: if you don't get the 300x500 at minimum you might regret the limitation on size of things you can do.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:56 AM - Mattchu: yeah I know, it's just a crazy price different O_O
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:56 AM - NFOsec: 12x18 is a good bed size, however, some of my friends swear they MUST have 18x24
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:57 AM - Mattchu: oh, do the sides come off in case it's a large sheet of plastic?
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:57 AM - NFOsec: so is a $5 hooker in Hackensack, NJ vs. $6 in Washington, DC, doesn't mean one is better than the other.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:57 AM - Mattchu: I'd love the 500x700.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:57 AM - NFOsec: you're thinking of a Robo.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:57 AM - NFOsec: you probably don't have the space.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:58 AM - NFOsec: tell me I didn't just say that in a family channel.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:58 AM - Mike Glass: ugg, bbl meeting.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:59 AM - jbigler1986: 596x906
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:59 AM - NFOsec: enjoy, route'm firewall'm, then sniff'm.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:59 AM - Mike Kelly: someones making a whistle sound in the shop with an airgun
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:59 AM - Mattchu: stab in the face, MK.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:59 AM - Mattchu: or tell them to cover their damn hole
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:59 AM - Mattchu: that's what does it
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:59 AM - Mattchu: someone's shooting air across a (usually blind) hole.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:00 AM - Mike Kelly: sounds like one of those rings kids have
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:01 AM - Mattchu: yeah, it's a dick move and pisses me off.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:01 AM - jbigler1986: oh man
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:01 AM - jbigler1986: get to do more wiring tonight
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:01 AM - jbigler1986: although its just going to be from psu to the cnc shield. So i guess only 2 wires
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:02 AM - NFOsec: you need to get one of those military sound projection devices...
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:02 AM - NFOsec: that will show the air where to go.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:03 AM - jbigler1986: just realized i can adjust the voltage on the psu. hmm

 

Oct 8, 2015 at 9:04 AM - NFOsec: reminds me, that would be a fun thing to "print".
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:04 AM - NFOsec: an air gun.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:05 AM - Bill Monroe: when I was in the Military, we projected sound via a Howitzer
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:05 AM - jbigler1986: forgot to get a relay. damnit. hardware store trip
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:05 AM - NFOsec: *sigh* I need to make a trip too, but I need to know what size PTFE to purchase so I can work with this ninjaflex semiflex and my 618 nylons.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:06 AM - jbigler1986: 2mm ID 4mm OD
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:06 AM - NFOsec: 2mm iD, 4mm OD, so I'm going to have to drill this out to meet 3.98 OD for snug fit eh.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:07 AM - NFOsec: with a stock robo R1++ wasn't sure since most people here have E3D v6.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:07 AM - NFOsec: or their neighborr's dog to extrude.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:07 AM - jbigler1986: yeah you need to drill out the filament hole on the carriage
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:09 AM - toymaker: anyone have a good borosilicate glass source? i need a 10" x 15" piece
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:10 AM - Mike Kelly: cincinnati gasket and industrial glass
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:10 AM - NFOsec: ask for Boris.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:10 AM - Mattchu: I love and hate printing that stuff at work, NFO.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:11 AM - NFOsec: Matt - the semiflex started out awesome at 30mm with normal retraction, etc. for the first 3/4" yesteerday when I was printing a tire. then, all the sudden the symptoms most speak of, the fabled double-back-reverse filament over the hobbed gear trick.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:11 AM - NFOsec: just reminded me of the Triple Lindy performed by Rodney Dangerfield in the movie "Back to School".
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:11 AM - Mattchu: yeah. it likes to run, it doesn't like pressure.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:12 AM - Mattchu: and holy crap is it strong
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:12 AM - Bill Monroe: Rodney was king
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:12 AM - toymaker: i dove off from the same platfrom...
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:12 AM - Mattchu: it's the strongest filament by far I've printed with.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:12 AM - NFOsec: this tire, the first 3/4" was pristine which was why I was upset it failed.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:12 AM - NFOsec: MadCity?
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:13 AM - NFOsec: I took the 10m into a single salt, only do 1-1/2-2-1/2 on the 3m, afraid of everything else. I hate height.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:13 AM - NFOsec: springboards are fun when you're not bending them beyond recognition.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:13 AM - nonmindo: Getting ready to call up Robo, which number was it that I call and ask to talk to "Jerry"?
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:13 AM - NFOsec: as I've seen some flubbers do it.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:14 AM - NFOsec: 1-800-EAT-ROBO
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:14 AM - toymaker: i learned to swim in that pool... sucks that just recently demo'd it
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:14 AM - NFOsec: 844-476-2633
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:14 AM - NFOsec: no doubt.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:14 AM - NFOsec: so much construction man... SO much construction.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:14 AM - nonmindo: Ty NFO
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:15 AM - NFOsec: bs non, bs.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:15 AM - NFOsec: remember, only break down and cry when they raise potential shipping costs.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:15 AM - NFOsec: not a moment sooner.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:16 AM - nonmindo: Just the "technical support" option? Cause that's the same number I called earlier that goes to the 3rd party support...or is it oy 3rd party support after hours?
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:16 AM - nonmindo: Only*
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:16 AM - NFOsec: that is 24/7.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:16 AM - Bill Monroe: I just hop on the Harley and go see them.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:16 AM - nonmindo: Lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:17 AM - nonmindo: K, I'll give it a shot
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:17 AM - nonmindo: Brb
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:17 AM - Mattchu: I won't lie...I'm lucky.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:17 AM - Mattchu: I can drive my robo down on the way to work >_<
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:17 AM - Bill Monroe: <-- 7 miles away
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:17 AM - Mattchu: like Bill, lol..
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:18 AM - Mattchu: I figured. I'm in Poway...nothing is close to me, except for Stone Brewery
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:18 AM - NFOsec: they WILL ask you to fill out a form, so do that then call? only digits I've seen non.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:18 AM - NFOsec: nice to be close, but yet so far away...
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:18 AM - Bill Monroe: I shoot down the 15 to Balboa, and cruise to the beach, hang a right.. presto!
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:19 AM - Mattchu: my envy for you Bill knows no bounds
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:19 AM - NFOsec: ok, I'm off to get some PTFE or brass, I need to get a solution to reliably print the semi/618 since most of my projects are in that arena.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:19 AM - Bill Monroe: eh, dont be.. I'm usually greeted with shock and caution
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:19 AM - Mattchu: hahaha
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:19 AM - Mattchu: you and me both
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:20 AM - NFOsec: better than what I get, the cower and run when I come.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:20 AM - NFOsec: I show up and they shut the door.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:20 AM - Bill Monroe: last time I was there, they were BBQing out back and stuttered a lot when I walked up to them
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:20 AM - jbigler1986: MK
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:20 AM - NFOsec: muttering something like: "we already gave at the office".
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:20 AM - Bill Monroe: of course, I was still wearing my helmut
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:20 AM - NFOsec: lol. probably were cooking the profits from the last order.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:20 AM - Mattchu: I imagine you're quite terrifying bill
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:21 AM - Mike Kelly: jb
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:21 AM - NFOsec: what that superhero clan group, with the helmets.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:21 AM - NFOsec: power rangers.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:21 AM - NFOsec: haha.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:25 AM - Bill Monroe: Actually, I kid. They've been quite nice and welcoming. ALthough they still insist that I ship Robbie parts to them, something about record keeping..
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:25 AM - Mike Kelly: http://www.theverge.com/2015/10/8/9477999/makerbot-layoffs-employees-lawsuit woof
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:26 AM - Mattchu: fast rising my butt...they sold to Stratsys...the company who they researched to get around every patent they had.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:26 AM - jbigler1986: do i need to worry about a toggle switch v or just the amps?
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:30 AM - NFOsec: The problem with "fast rising" is that they are attempting to grow beyond a controlled business growth, so over-expenditures are wreaking havoc on operational/revenue generation efforts.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:31 AM - NFOsec: Bill: they probably have to behave with those two woman there running the show.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:32 AM - jbigler1986: oh makerbot
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:32 AM - NFOsec: Makersnot.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:32 AM - NFOsec: Makerblot
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:32 AM - Bill Monroe: ya, FInance people are usually the cause of a company's woes.. but this one is pretty darn easy on the eyes..
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:32 AM - NFOsec: reasonably solid product, but just like any others, getting too big for their minds.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:32 AM - WheresWaldo: When you work in Sales and Marketing like I did for many years, and C level management wants numbers showing growth, sometimes you just make shit up. Then force the sales teams to eat those higher quotas or make less money.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:33 AM - NFOsec: yeah. no doubt.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:33 AM - NFOsec: so easy I bet people see past getting paychecks,. etc.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:33 AM - Bill Monroe: who was it here that just closed a restaurant?
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:33 AM - jbigler1986: i am just going to use the switch on the surge protector. i am feeling lazy
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:34 AM - NFOsec: well, true, but even in my days with Zenith Data Corporation (way back when) growth doesn't mean much if you can't support it.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:34 AM - NFOsec: maybe In-n-Out burger? LOL. that will never happen.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:34 AM - Bill Monroe: wasnt too hard to support stone tablets and chisels
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:34 AM - Mattchu: I've never seen an In N out go out of business O_O
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:35 AM - Mattchu: I have, however, seen all their neighbors bite it, or change their business model to reflect their existance.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:35 AM - NFOsec: true, but they only made one set of the 2 tablets, thereafter a flooding occurred.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:35 AM - WheresWaldo: For a start-up, which Makerbot really was, you just need to show growth until someone else buys you. That is generally the goal of these new companies, it is not sustained growth,. They let the new owners worry about that, after they cash out.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:35 AM - NFOsec: Matt: very unlikely because it is a place of product/quality.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:35 AM - nonmindo: So they said eBay refurb warranty is 90 days, which is OK, I'm within that...they wouldn't let me talk to Jerry tho
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:36 AM - NFOsec: yeah, flipping businesses new on TBS.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:36 AM - NFOsec: non: that's fine, so then just get everything on the thing replaced.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:36 AM - Mattchu: yeah, but Makebot has been around what? A decade now? Their prices went from reasonable, to insane.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:36 AM - NFOsec: maybe you could have asked for Kramer?
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:36 AM - nonmindo: Lol, I have to submit via the online form, as you guys mentioned
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:37 AM - NFOsec: yeah, any time a business knows or does milk someone and quality suffers, I'm audi. I can think of a dozen products off the top of my head that have never changed their prices in 10 years.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:37 AM - NFOsec: that's just as bad.

 

Oct 8, 2015 at 9:37 AM - WheresWaldo: Still working off the premise that they wanted to be bought out. No matter how altruistic their original intent, nobody goes into a business if not to make money.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:37 AM - Bill Monroe: I found a vacant diner fully equipped ready to run, with no competition for 35 miles around
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:37 AM - NFOsec: bill: whatever became of the CA legislation on drones?
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:37 AM - Mattchu: everyone undercuts them, and any high end product they sell, you can take a quick look and find better. The only thing they really have right now is Thingiverse, and their scanner...and the scanner is falling behind real fast.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:38 AM - NFOsec: well, were there PEOPLE around for 25 miles?
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:38 AM - Mattchu: a thingiverse is too far along, and too filled with IPs, to charge.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:38 AM - Bill Monroe: it's been signed, unsure of start effective date
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:38 AM - NFOsec: yeah.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:38 AM - Bill Monroe: ya.. people stop there anyway, to pee and check out the museum
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:38 AM - nonmindo: Crap... I'm not sure if I have the r1 with auto level or the pla+abs....
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:38 AM - NFOsec: so, are they doing outright ban on hobby flying quads, props, etc?
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:38 AM - NFOsec: balloon drone from rctoys that drops businesscards?
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:39 AM - Bill Monroe: remotely piloted vehicles with cameras
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:39 AM - NFOsec: mmm...
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:39 AM - NFOsec: so, if someone disables the camera it's not a care because it's still a camera on the device?
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:39 AM - nonmindo: How do I tell which version of the Robo I have between the auto level and the pla+abs?
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:40 AM - Bill Monroe: the house has hearings on it right now at the fed level.. NTSB, AOPA, APA, AMA, and EAA are on the docket
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:40 AM - nonmindo: Mine has auto level and the housing that has the z-rod stabilizers in the lid
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:40 AM - Mattchu: I think the autolevel has the newer sensor package on the bottom of each side of the Z-support.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:41 AM - Mattchu: is yours the R1 plus+ non?
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:41 AM - nonmindo: No, not the plus, I don't have the drive screws
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:41 AM - Mattchu: okay
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:41 AM - nonmindo: It reads as R1v3 in MC
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:41 AM - NFOsec: R1++
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:41 AM - Mattchu: so look inside your lid, and see where the z-rods go up to, non
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:42 AM - Mattchu: if they attach to little holes in the lid, it's the auto level
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:42 AM - Mattchu: if they are "loose" it's the older style.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:42 AM - Mattchu: theorhetically.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:42 AM - nonmindo: Yea the chrome smooth rods, they go into the housing, the threaded rods dont
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:43 AM - Mattchu: I'd say it's safe to say it has auto level.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:43 AM - Mattchu: you getting the lead screws, non? I cannot stress how much I love them.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:43 AM - nonmindo: Kk I mean I know it /has/ auto leveling...just wanted to make sure the auto leveling came after the pla+abs version...ty!
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:43 AM - nonmindo: I don't have the money right now, but I will be yes
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:44 AM - Mattchu: R1 2xPlus, NFO.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:44 AM - nonmindo: They also are out of stock
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:44 AM - Mattchu: damn.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:44 AM - Mattchu: call and ask about it
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:44 AM - Mattchu: cause honestly, I'd almost wait for that.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:44 AM - nonmindo: When I have the $$
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:44 AM - NFOsec: Matth: R1 +plus they claim. MK says it's R1 ++ because R1 plus plus doesn't sound good.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:45 AM - NFOsec: well, gotta hit to the hardware store, I want that tdamn tubing,
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:45 AM - NFOsec: l8r.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:45 AM - Mattchu: Eat ramen for 2 weeks, non...trust me. It's worth it ^_^
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:45 AM - Mattchu: see you NFO, I'll tell you my storyhow I pissd off the mastercam rep once by calling his product "version 10"
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:46 AM - nonmindo: Lol...I just rented out a private maker space, that's why I can't afford right now lol...in a couple weeks I can... I have an e3dv6 on order too
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:46 AM - jbigler1986: i am hungry but to tired to go get lunch
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:46 AM - Mattchu: only reason I'd say do it now, non...they'll install it.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:46 AM - Bill Monroe: I'm working on drawings for my new makerspace.. but I just call it "The Shop"
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:47 AM - Mattchu: when can I visit "Le Shoppe" Bill?
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:47 AM - Mattchu: =p
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:47 AM - Bill Monroe: hopefully next year.. but you'll have a 3 hour drive
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:47 AM - Bill Monroe: or a 30 minute flight, if you have a plane
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:47 AM - Mattchu: and I'm envious...my work space is either my desk...or any free time I have at work.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:48 AM - Bill Monroe: ot a 7 hour trip, if you have a powered parachute
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:48 AM - Mattchu: how about an electric skateboard, bill?
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:48 AM - Mattchu: or a segway?
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:48 AM - Bill Monroe: forget it.. we dont allow nerdy technofreeks in our town
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:48 AM - Mattchu: I live on the edge =-D
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:49 AM - jbigler1986: what about moped, walking, bird, snowmobile, 4 wheeler, hovercraft?
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:49 AM - Mattchu: snowmobile? in SoCal? we don't have any snow...I don't even know what that stuff looks like
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:49 AM - Bill Monroe: i had one set of plans done and submitted, they kicked them back for 2 code issues I was unaware of
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:49 AM - Mattchu: (yes yes I know big bear/the mountains are like, a stone throws away)
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:49 AM - Bill Monroe: it snowed once.. in 1969
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:49 AM - jbigler1986:
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:50 AM - Bill Monroe: we get snow in joshua tree almost every year
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:50 AM - Mattchu: it's snowed twice in Poway in the time I"ve been alive Bill...people lost their minds
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:50 AM - Bill Monroe: bah.. that was hail that piled up
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:50 AM - Bill Monroe:
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:51 AM - Mattchu: I'll consider that statement fair
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:51 AM - Mattchu: so your maker space will be in joshua tree then, bill?
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:52 AM - Bill Monroe: ya.. when I retire I'm egressing SR and making my home there my base
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:53 AM - Mattchu: nice!
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:53 AM - Bill Monroe: I had to start the design all over since the first one was closer to the street than the main house, and it was greater that 1200 spft
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:54 AM - Bill Monroe: sqft
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:57 AM - Mattchu: bummer
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:57 AM - Mattchu: okay kids, I gotta go make the shinies, so I can get paid, so I can afford lasers.
Oct 8, 2015 at 10:16 AM - jbigler1986: Bill
Oct 8, 2015 at 10:17 AM - jbigler1986: figured out what you meant with post processors last night
Oct 8, 2015 at 10:18 AM - Bill Monroe: jb
Oct 8, 2015 at 10:19 AM - Bill Monroe: ya, once you get one working, life is easy... but it takes some efort
Oct 8, 2015 at 10:19 AM - Bill Monroe: effort
Oct 8, 2015 at 10:19 AM - jbigler1986: well going to be able to use tinyg as post processor
Oct 8, 2015 at 10:19 AM - Bill Monroe: all the "real" cnc companies provide them for their machines, but you still have to tailor them for your tools (or toolchanger if present)
Oct 8, 2015 at 10:19 AM - jbigler1986: which lots of cam supports
Oct 8, 2015 at 10:20 AM - jbigler1986: there isn't crap for marlin
Oct 8, 2015 at 10:20 AM - Bill Monroe: marlin isnt CNC
Oct 8, 2015 at 10:21 AM - jbigler1986: i know. figured someone had one modified though
Oct 8, 2015 at 10:21 AM - Bill Monroe: but they plaugerized GRBL without prejudice
Oct 8, 2015 at 10:21 AM - jbigler1986: yeah going to be using grbl on the uno
Oct 8, 2015 at 10:23 AM - Bill Monroe: i'm doing resume and headhunter emails this morning, then lunch with a buddy.. will be back to tuning my servos this afternoon
Oct 8, 2015 at 10:23 AM - jbigler1986: have fun
Oct 8, 2015 at 10:44 AM - Bill Monroe: OK! lunch date postponed to tomorrow
Oct 8, 2015 at 10:44 AM - Bill Monroe: 2.0 has baked Halibut in the oven for lunch.. THEN servo tuning
Oct 8, 2015 at 10:51 AM - jbigler1986: i like halibut. prefer mahi mahi though
Oct 8, 2015 at 10:58 AM - NFOsec: that is a halibut, but look at those mahi's.
Oct 8, 2015 at 10:59 AM - jbigler1986: ha
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:00 AM - jbigler1986: what are you up to NFO?
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:00 AM - NFOsec: apparently the Midwest is a lame place to shop for PTFE tubing, hit up 3 stores and nothing. A-Mazing.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:00 AM - NFOsec: was trying to figure a channel for filaments, decided to go with a brass rod to ram in there.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:01 AM - NFOsec: I need to have good quality results with the semi-flex and 618 nylons, despite it's always 1/3rd to 2/3rds way in they crap out.

 

Oct 8, 2015 at 11:01 AM - NFOsec: playing ring around the Robbie.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:01 AM - NFOsec: hob.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:02 AM - jbigler1986: yeah you wont find it
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:02 AM - NFOsec: not true. I will.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:02 AM - jbigler1986: very doubtful
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:02 AM - NFOsec: otherwise I'll start to use my Robo3D without the top cover and replace the stock extruder/hotend with my Micron3DP.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:02 AM - NFOsec: never had a problem with that baby.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:02 AM - jbigler1986: you can get it from amazon
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:03 AM - NFOsec: oh, you meant won't find PTFE tubing?
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:03 AM - NFOsec: gotcha.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:03 AM - jbigler1986: yeah
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:03 AM - NFOsec: yeah, was going to order 1000 ft and take over the market.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:03 AM - jbigler1986: lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:04 AM - jbigler1986: i should have read more. didn't see that you got a brass rod
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:04 AM - NFOsec: I'll package them into small baggies like the drug lords do, can't wait to get pulled over and arrested for the manufacturer and distribution of a high quality teflon.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:04 AM - jbigler1986: it's crack that actually looks like teflon
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:05 AM - NFOsec: I'm a little skeptical of a rod with abreak between the hotend, because my Micron, the hotend brass rod extends up up to the hob.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:05 AM - NFOsec: but if the fit is good and the changes are clean between filaments, I shouldn't have problems.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:05 AM - jbigler1986: have it go all the down until it touches the top of the hotend
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:06 AM - NFOsec: yeah, that's what she said.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:06 AM - NFOsec: oh, pardon, I forgot you don't have humor with regards to the opposite these days.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:07 AM - NFOsec: january iasnt that far off
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:07 AM - jbigler1986: longer than it should be
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:08 AM - jbigler1986: i have nothing against the opposite these days. just 1
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:09 AM - jbigler1986: she did another dumb thing last night
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:09 AM - NFOsec: well, as Forrest Gump once said: Stupid is as Stupid Does, can you blame her?
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:10 AM - jbigler1986: i sure can
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:10 AM - NFOsec: well, then there you go.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:11 AM - jbigler1986: setup a time to call my kids yesterday at 7. Gave her 24 hours notice and she said that was fine. Called at 7 yesterday and she didn't answer. Texted her and tolder her I tried to call and asked when I can talk to them. She said "Tomorrow evening. They are already in bed. Sorry"
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:12 AM - jbigler1986: That is the kind of shit I have to deal with. Selfishness
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:12 AM - NFOsec: lying skank.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:12 AM - NFOsec: yeah.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:12 AM - jbigler1986: she was with her boyfriend I am sure
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:12 AM - NFOsec: well, remember what I said, document, document, document.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:12 AM - jbigler1986: sent it to my attorney immediately
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:12 AM - NFOsec: you don't need to sweat the details.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:12 AM - NFOsec: just keep a nice log.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:12 AM - NFOsec: yeah.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:13 AM - jbigler1986: it's just unfortunate for my kids
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:13 AM - NFOsec: yeah, it's always bad for the kids.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:13 AM - jbigler1986: on another note. I silenced my alarms at some point last night so I woke up to my boss calling me this morning
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:14 AM - jbigler1986: I woke up like "That's not my alarm tone. That's my ringtone"
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:14 AM - jbigler1986: whoops
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:14 AM - Mike Kelly: ouch
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:15 AM - jbigler1986: he was cool with it. I hate being late
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:15 AM - jbigler1986: MK did you read my PM
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:15 AM - NFOsec: ouch, hopefully you were able to soothe over the moment by stating you're just getting over malaria.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:16 AM - NFOsec: you should at least file something that asks for a little leniency as you go through this moment of time, that way it can't really ever bite you (even going to the level of FMLA filing but not using unless necessary).
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:16 AM - NFOsec: this is a qualifying event.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:16 AM - Mike Kelly: i did jb
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:16 AM - jbigler1986: Did it make sense
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:16 AM - Mike Kelly: i don't really have money right now to buy a different controller
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:16 AM - Mike Kelly: it does
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:16 AM - jbigler1986: you don't have to buy a different one
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:16 AM - NFOsec: controller for what?
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:16 AM - jbigler1986: just use a different firmware
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:17 AM - Mike Kelly: ah
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:17 AM - Mike Kelly: well once i get things moving i'll step into that
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:17 AM - jbigler1986: like I said. There is a grbl port for ramps
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:17 AM - Mike Kelly: i'm just taking this one thing at a time
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:18 AM - jbigler1986: you can use a different post processor but it will not give you the correct movements
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:18 AM - jbigler1986: I don't remember which one i picked just to test last night but it was supposed to cut a star and it was like a weird oval.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:21 AM - jbigler1986: NFO do you live up north in Wisky
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:22 AM - Mike Glass: Not sure why your taking the hard road, use a cam that is designed for marlin then you dont have to mess with it.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:23 AM - jbigler1986: just saying if he doesn't like estlcam
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:23 AM - jbigler1986: options MG. Options
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:23 AM - Mike Glass: not sure why you wouldnt. unless your just a glutten for punishment
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:24 AM - jbigler1986: Aspire is actually easier than estl
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:24 AM - jbigler1986: for me anyways
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:27 AM - jbigler1986: fuck
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:27 AM - NFOsec: now now, this is a family channel shithead.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:28 AM - jbigler1986: lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:28 AM - Mike Glass: so lets see what you cut out using estlcam
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:29 AM - NFOsec: MG, stopped at Dollar General (another dollar tree/dollar store around here). Picked up 7 nice vases and 8 spice shakers (bigger ones like the parmesan cheese except they can rest on side like a canister set) all for under $18.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:30 AM - Mike Glass: I should of stopped there yesterday when I was at HF, it was right next door.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:30 AM - jbigler1986: I was fine with a simple square cutout. Square with a hole in the middle it would only do the square even though the preview showed it doing both
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:31 AM - NFOsec: I also unnecessarily splurged on one other thing.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:31 AM - NFOsec: a 10-pack box of Twinkies.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:31 AM - Mike Glass: shaving cream?
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:31 AM - jbigler1986: i haven't had a twinkie in like 10 years or more
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:31 AM - Mike Glass: oh no Chinese twinkies?
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:32 AM - NFOsec: the new twinkie formula is better than the old. I hadn't had one in like 30 years, decided to try 2 weeks ago, kind of liked/missed but don't do a lot of that crap.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:32 AM - NFOsec: MG: prostitution isn't legal, evn if they're chinese.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:32 AM - Mike Glass: I will not eat food from china, thats where I draw the line
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:33 AM - Mike Glass: Dollar Store is 99.9999% chinese crap
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:33 AM - NFOsec: no, you're right, yo'ure better off eating the "chinese" pot stickers made in Korean and wrapped in India.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:34 AM - jbigler1986: if you eat to many twinkies you will end up like this
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:35 AM - Mike Glass: want some pork flied lice you plick.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:35 AM - jbigler1986: that guy was in a hospital on a program to lose 250 pounds. They kicked him out because he ordered a pizza
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:36 AM - NFOsec: spongey exterior with filling in between.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:37 AM - jbigler1986: be careful. Someone will complain to Mk and take offense to pics like that
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:37 AM - jbigler1986: I posted one of a girl in booty shorts and someone said they were offended
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:38 AM - NFOsec: especially the FAT one.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:38 AM - NFOsec: I don't care, I think I care less now than I ever have.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:38 AM - Mike Glass: lol what is this grade school.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:38 AM - jbigler1986: yeah it's dumb. I said they can got to a different site then
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:38 AM - NFOsec: I spent 6.5 hours in interviews yesterday with 11 different directors and VPs across 5 panels. Turns out, only 2 of the 14 people were telling the truth.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:39 AM - Mike Glass: and probably only 1 may of been qualified?
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:39 AM - NFOsec: so, when I informed their HR I was withdrawing my candidacy, they freaked out and want to "remedy the situation". Hilarious.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:39 AM - NFOsec: yeah, me.

 

Oct 8, 2015 at 11:40 AM - NFOsec: I was the interviewee, not the viewer.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:40 AM - jbigler1986: tell them you want 6 zeros in your salary and you will reconsider
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:40 AM - Mike Glass: oh, stepping up in the company?
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:41 AM - jbigler1986: 6 zeros with a 1 at the front
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:41 AM - NFOsec: jb: that's the easy part, I would have rathered more like 2 or 3 at the front.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:41 AM - jbigler1986: well who wouldn't
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:42 AM - NFOsec: earning 6 figures is not rocket science, what is rocket science is finding imbeciles who can do more than politics and lie.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:42 AM - jbigler1986: yeah you have to enjoy what you do
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:42 AM - NFOsec: yep, one thing for sure.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:43 AM - NFOsec: I think only one time in my life I was earning a great living but was miserable with the job. the rest of the time is just corporate bureacracy and the likes.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:43 AM - NFOsec: sort of like a whole new Dilbert series.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:44 AM - jbigler1986: yep. I really haven't enjoyed a job until i started here. I love my job now
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:47 AM - NFOsec: yeah, I would too if I could show up late for work all the time.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:47 AM - jbigler1986: ha. First time all year
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:47 AM - jbigler1986: normally at least 20 minutes early
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:48 AM - Mike Kelly: i show up late p much every day
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:48 AM - Mike Kelly: but i haven't gotten a raise since they added more hours to my day
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:48 AM - Mike Kelly: and i don't have enough work for all those hours
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:48 AM - Mike Kelly: so fuck'em
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:48 AM - jbigler1986: i can't do it. I hate the feeling of being late
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:48 AM - jbigler1986: tell us how you really feel
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:49 AM - jbigler1986: you and daniel need different jobs
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:49 AM - jbigler1986: you guys hate your work
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:49 AM - NFOsec: I love my work, I just hate my personaly toy budget.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:49 AM - Mike Kelly: i'm working on it
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:50 AM - Mike Kelly: i hate being late too but i hate being bored more
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:51 AM - jbigler1986: well i think we all hate our toy budget. except for maybe MG. he just keeps buying stuff
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:51 AM - Mike Kelly: i know another person who seems to have excessive toy budget
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:52 AM - Mike Glass: That is not toy budget that is work realated
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:52 AM - Mike Glass: lol IKR MK
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:52 AM - Mike Kelly: but not everyone has a successful family business
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:53 AM - jbigler1986: well
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:53 AM - Mike Glass: Hahah that funny, we havent even started to make an income yet though, think we pulled $1000 in 2 months is all.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:53 AM - jbigler1986: write it off as a business loss
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:54 AM - Mike Kelly: didn't mean you but that's a good chunk of money
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:54 AM - jbigler1986: that's a start MG
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:54 AM - Mike Glass: Bingo JB
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:54 AM - Mike Glass: well xmas is going to be tell tell.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:54 AM - Mike Kelly: I'm trying to think of more ways to make additional income
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:55 AM - Mike Glass: thats why im gearing up on this so if it does pan out it will all be paid for.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:55 AM - jbigler1986: I hear they are letting just about anyone do porn. Soooooooo
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:55 AM - JeffTheMess:
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:55 AM - Mike Kelly: pull a kim kardashian
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:55 AM - jbigler1986: Bingo
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:56 AM - jbigler1986: I can't stand them
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:56 AM - NFOsec: jb: well, if you build it they will come (right MG?) LOL
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:56 AM - Mike Glass: NFO, you didnt tell me about the jean craze either, holy hell, thats money in the pockets like bam.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:57 AM - Mike Kelly:
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:57 AM - NFOsec: I did tell you.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:58 AM - NFOsec: I said if you're ready to endeavor into other areas, jeans, clothes, laces are awesome to do.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:58 AM - Mike Glass: lol I know just giving you hell.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:58 AM - NFOsec: man, that is cool MK.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:59 AM - NFOsec: MG: well, there will be hell to pay. I'm going to laser at Twinkie in your honor.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:59 AM - Mike Kelly: right? fun to watch
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:59 AM - NFOsec: no shit.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:59 AM - Mike Glass: lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:59 AM - NFOsec: REALLY cool.
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:59 AM - Mike Glass: PocketNC could build you one of those MK
Oct 8, 2015 at 11:59 AM - NFOsec: makes me wish at times I went that track.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:00 PM - daniel871: Well, Rule #34 means pretty much anything goes on that front, JB.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:00 PM - daniel871: Somewhere on the internet, someone has made porn out of anything you can think of.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:01 PM - NFOsec: yeah, how many Robo olders have printed something nasty?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:01 PM - daniel871: JB has.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:01 PM - jbigler1986: i actually haven't
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:01 PM - NFOsec: probably explains why semi-flex, ninjaflex, etc. are all failures and people are upset.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:01 PM - NFOsec: puhleeze.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:01 PM - daniel871: Wait, that wasn't printed?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:01 PM - daniel871: Or was the Dildo Generator all a lie?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:01 PM - jbigler1986: nastiest thing I have printed are balls of spaghetti
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:02 PM - NFOsec: no, the d-g is alive. problem is there are no constraints on the measurements.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:02 PM - NFOsec: 6500mm x 250mm was an option.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:02 PM - jbigler1986: ok truth comes out. d-g is not my site
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:02 PM - Mike Glass: WTF?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:03 PM - daniel871: MG feels like he was just told he was adopted.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:03 PM - jbigler1986: lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:03 PM - Mike Kelly: the music is hilarious
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:04 PM - jbigler1986: that v12 engine is amaing
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:04 PM - jbigler1986: amazing
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:04 PM - NFOsec: what do you call that? The Big Dog "Boston" Tunnel Digger?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:04 PM - Mike Glass: think its from a disney movie.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:04 PM - Mike Kelly: if this thing doesn't run on gas i'm going to be severly dissapointed
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:04 PM - Mike Glass: butane right?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:04 PM - NFOsec: probably would have to run a pretty high octane eh?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:05 PM - Mike Kelly: air, damn...
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:05 PM - NFOsec: or even lighter fluiud?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:05 PM - Mike Glass: lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:05 PM - Mike Glass: well then its a lie
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:05 PM - Mike Kelly: still cool
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:05 PM - Mike Glass: there is one that actually runs
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:06 PM - Mike Kelly: still impressive
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:06 PM - Mike Glass:
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:07 PM - Mike Glass: no that is effin cool
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:07 PM - Mike Kelly: 90CC
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:08 PM - Mike Kelly: whoaaa
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:08 PM - Mike Glass: thats more then some cars..lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:08 PM - NFOsec: GLOW fuel!
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:08 PM - Mike Kelly: gotta love the CCD effect
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:08 PM - NFOsec: OMG. how wonderful and cheap is that!
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:08 PM - Mike Kelly: i hope that thing gets mounted on a plane
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:08 PM - Mike Glass: Them germans can build some cool shit

 

Oct 8, 2015 at 12:09 PM - NFOsec: so cute.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:09 PM - jbigler1986: rc car anyone?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:09 PM - Mike Kelly: alright lezzee, MG your firmware is already configured for full graphics yeah?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:09 PM - NFOsec: you b7n buy it apparently? mnisteam.com?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:10 PM - NFOsec: I rc car/truck/plane/train, but without semiflex printing properly I'm going to be running on a few flat tires.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:10 PM - Mike Glass: yea
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:11 PM - daniel871: Wait, why do the tires have to be made of semiflex?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:11 PM - Mike Glass: I would be suprised if you could actually print with flex on stock robo.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:11 PM - NFOsec: I've adjusted the tapper to support some major curve changes.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:11 PM - Mike Kelly: print slow enough sure
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:11 PM - Mike Glass: yea but slower then 30mm right?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:12 PM - NFOsec: well, I got 3/4" on the bed, only by changing 30mm speed, but then it backed up.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:12 PM - Mike Kelly: god yes
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:12 PM - Mike Kelly: semiflex may handle 30, but 20 would be good
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:12 PM - NFOsec: I have brass tubing, going to figure out what I got to do to put that in place and do that shortly.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:12 PM - NFOsec: sounds like it's only about 7/8" length needed.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:13 PM - Mike Kelly: yeah i need to add the brass tube i bough
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:13 PM - NFOsec: so, MG, why could someone configure 6500 x 250mm on your site?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:14 PM - NFOsec: that brings Anaconda to a whole different meaning.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:14 PM - jbigler1986: been testing it have you?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:15 PM - Mike Glass: its actually in picometers
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:15 PM - NFOsec: nothing worse than having to scroll the page 6500mm (or cm) just to get to the "buy it now" or "add to cart".
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:15 PM - NFOsec: denial of service or denail of entry is bound to happen with that.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:16 PM - Mike Kelly: MG what size resistor did you end up with for the Thermistor port
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:16 PM - Mike Kelly: also couldn't you just set the min temp to be like -1 then it wouldn't mintemp error...
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:16 PM - Mike Kelly: or is that missing somethign
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:16 PM - jbigler1986: lmao NFO
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:17 PM - NFOsec: jb: I'm just saying.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:17 PM - jbigler1986: MK you can upload the thermistor mpcnc firmware and it will work fine
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:17 PM - jbigler1986: Unless MG has made other changes in his
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:18 PM - Mike Glass: think I just disabled them but also put a resistor on, not sure what size it was it reads 499c on my screen..lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:19 PM - jbigler1986: yeah mine read 478 i think
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:19 PM - jbigler1986: No resistor needed
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:19 PM - Mike Glass: Here is the link to the newest firmware. http://www.vicious1.com/marlin-firmware/
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:20 PM - jbigler1986: yeah I used the temp error one then changed the steps and accel and stuff
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:20 PM - Mike Kelly: nice thanks mike
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:21 PM - Mike Glass: I should load the newer stuff as he has all the settings for jerk and what not in there now.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:22 PM - NFOsec: so, coming up from the bottom, it's righty-tighty, lefty-loosey, would I turn counter-clockwise to remove the hotend?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:22 PM - NFOsec: or clockwise.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:22 PM - jbigler1986: you have the quick release correct?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:22 PM - Mike Kelly: he needs to not use grey text on a white background
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:22 PM - Mike Glass: isnt it backwards on the nozzle?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:22 PM - Mike Glass: nozzle jb
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:23 PM - Mike Kelly: do people not realize the marlin.ino file is redundant?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:23 PM - Mike Glass: no its clock wise to tighen
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:24 PM - jbigler1986: um i don't think the nozzle threads are backwards
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:24 PM - jbigler1986: damn you mg
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:24 PM - NFOsec: so I would go left to right (from bottom up).
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:25 PM - NFOsec: if I flip it over, then same thing I suppose.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:25 PM - NFOsec: "quick release" ha. nothing quick about this.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:25 PM - Mike Kelly: just pull on it
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:26 PM - Mike Glass: I start at the right then move the nozzle wrench to the left to remove
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:26 PM - jbigler1986: removing the nozzle?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:26 PM - daniel871: If I'm in front of the Robo, I start at the left and move the wrench to the right to tighten. Opposite to remove.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:26 PM - jbigler1986: ^
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:26 PM - Mike Glass: whoa thats freeky dan
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:27 PM - daniel871: And hold the heater block with pliers to keep it from spinning.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:27 PM - jbigler1986: yeah. don't mess with the heat break. especially on the hex
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:28 PM - Mike Glass: I use the heatbreak wrench and never had an issue.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:28 PM - daniel871: That's mainly for the v6 since it doesn't have a set screw on the heat break like the Hexagon does.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:29 PM - jbigler1986: heat breaks I try to not touch if at all possible. I like to bend them
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:30 PM - jbigler1986: MK I broke the nozzle tool the other day
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:30 PM - Mike Glass: I think your more likely to bend them with a big ole wrench on the block.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:30 PM - Mike Kelly: wow
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:30 PM - jbigler1986: it really isn't much force needed
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:30 PM - NFOsec: dnaiel ok.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:30 PM - daniel871: I raise the carriage up enough so that I can get the pliers at the heater block at an angle and rest my hand on the glass bed so that my nerves/whatever don't bend the heat break while I turn the nozzle wrench.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:31 PM - NFOsec: no nozzle tool with the robo, but did get one with the set I ordered.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:31 PM - jbigler1986: it snapped where the socket adapter attaches to the base
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:31 PM - Mike Kelly: MG he dropped the max feedrate from 120 to 3 on the Z axis?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:31 PM - NFOsec: so power tools are out of the question. LOL.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:31 PM - jbigler1986: NFO it's one I printed. Works great
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:32 PM - Mike Glass: yea thats probably a good thing too MK
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:32 PM - jbigler1986: https://www.youmagine.com/designs/nozzle-torque-wrench
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:32 PM - daniel871: Break out the torque ratchet.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:33 PM - Mike Glass: thats where I was having issues with skipping.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:34 PM - Mike Kelly: well in your firmware it was set to 5, on 9/6 he dropped that to 3
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:34 PM - daniel871: What's a 3d printer slicer I can run on Windows XP that has a machine control panel on it so I can run PID tuning?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:34 PM - jbigler1986: repetier host maybe
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:34 PM - daniel871: The shop PC is an old Windows XP machine.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:34 PM - daniel871: I tried RepetierHost and it wouldn't run.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:35 PM - jbigler1986: just wouldn't connect?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:35 PM - daniel871: Wouldn't even install.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:35 PM - Mike Glass: dl the zip version
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:35 PM - daniel871: It would open then give an error about not being compatible with that installation of Windows.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:36 PM - jbigler1986: ^ that's is all an installation does anyways. Unzips files
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:36 PM - jbigler1986: run it in xp mode
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:36 PM - daniel871: On a literal XP machine?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:36 PM - Mike Glass: LMAO
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:36 PM - jbigler1986: shit. fail
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:37 PM - Mike Glass: run it in 3.0 mode
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:37 PM - NFOsec: jb: so what size is the wrench?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:37 PM - jbigler1986: that's how long it has been since I have messed with xp
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:37 PM - jbigler1986: socket size?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:37 PM - daniel871: Oh wait, Pronterface, duh.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:37 PM - daniel871: Not a slicer, but that will run in XP.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:38 PM - daniel871: And I can send G-code commands.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:38 PM - Mike Glass: 4mm?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:38 PM - jbigler1986: can you clarify more NFO
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:39 PM - daniel871: Going to run PID tuning again to verify the values. After I got the bed working again it seems like everything takes forever to heat up now.

 

Oct 8, 2015 at 12:39 PM - NFOsec: the hex end to the nozzle.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:39 PM - jbigler1986: nozzle wrench is 7mm
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:39 PM - daniel871: I thought the Hexagon hotend was round with two flats on it?
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:40 PM - jbigler1986: it does
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:40 PM - NFOsec: yea.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:40 PM - NFOsec: 2 flats.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:41 PM - Mike Glass: ok does a 7mm wrench fit the hex hotend is what is the unknown here.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:41 PM - jbigler1986:
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:41 PM - jbigler1986: 7mm
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:41 PM - jbigler1986: https://tamarintech.com/article/hexagon_std_assembly
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:42 PM - Mike Glass: that does not look like a socket
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:42 PM - jbigler1986: he said wrench
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:43 PM - NFOsec: the forum shoes people cutting 7/8" yet it seems longer when I look at it, like 1" or slightly over.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:43 PM - Mike Glass: thought he was asking bout the wrench/socket you broke
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:44 PM - NFOsec: MG: he "broke" so it don't matter.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:44 PM - NFOsec:
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:44 PM - jbigler1986: yeah we are all over the map right now
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:44 PM - jbigler1986: day is almost over
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:45 PM - Mike Glass: must be almost beer 30.
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:45 PM - jbigler1986: i had a dream about beer last night
Oct 8, 2015 at 12:46 PM - jbigler1986: coffee sounds good
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:02 PM - daniel871: Drinking some coffee right now myself.
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:02 PM - daniel871: Been a hell of a day for trying to concentrate on work.
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:03 PM - daniel871: Got my flight itinerary, now I have to gather up all of my documents and shit I'll need to get through customs/etc.
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:03 PM - daniel871: Maybe this time I'll actually get to have some stamps in my passport book.
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:03 PM - jbigler1986: passport is all you should need
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:04 PM - daniel871: Due-diligence double check on what vaccinations are required for people coming to Sweden/etc.
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:04 PM - jbigler1986: i only have a couple in mine. wish i had more
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:04 PM - daniel871: Oh boy, the CDC recommends having the HPV vaccine and Hepatitis A & B before going there.
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:05 PM - Mike Glass: nothing like a huge sailboat in your front yard. https://www.google.com/maps/place/2...ec3e3491b393:0xb020515935950cab!6m1!1e1?hl=en
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:05 PM - JeffTheMess: where you going dan
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:05 PM - Mike Glass: Cant wait to see it finished.
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:05 PM - daniel871: Sweden.
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:05 PM - daniel871: In December.
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:05 PM - daniel871: East Youth Street (referring to MG's link)
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:05 PM - JeffTheMess: nice!
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:06 PM - daniel871: Yeah, but it's a business trip, so most of it will be spent indoors.
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:07 PM - daniel871: My company, in a move that boggles my mind, thinks it'll be less expensive to send me over there for a week to work with the people there on Solidworks and how we use it to develop one of our product lines than to have them take the official classes over there.
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:08 PM - daniel871: (we honestly barely scratch the surface of what Solidworks can do for the stuff we make, it's more for the spatial arrangement/verifying things will fit together like we want than anything)
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:15 PM - daniel871: I just remembered that one of the guys over there is part of a local Swedish Metal band. This is going to be a weird trip.
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:16 PM - jbigler1986:
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:18 PM - NFOsec: maybe he can bring his sisters daniel.
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:18 PM - NFOsec: so, a Swedish metal band, is that like Swedish Meatloaf?
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:19 PM - NFOsec: gar jb. gar
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:28 PM - Mike Glass:
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:29 PM - Mike Glass: Evil
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:29 PM - jbigler1986: huge
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:29 PM - Mike Glass: nice job jb
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:29 PM - jbigler1986: took 2 days for me to finish it. lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:30 PM - Mike Glass: looks kinda like the ones a customer wants
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:31 PM - Mike Glass: I can do that in like 6 hours on my carvewright
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:32 PM - Mike Glass: well maybe longer is that over 4 feet
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:33 PM - jbigler1986: not sure
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:33 PM - Mike Glass: think he really used a dremel on that..lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:34 PM - jbigler1986: lmao. 6 months later
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:34 PM - Mike Glass: love to do one that size
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:34 PM - NFOsec: wow, pretty cool.
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:34 PM - NFOsec: with what? a 12x8 bed?
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:34 PM - NFOsec: by hand with a chisel?
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:34 PM - NFOsec: or that new pawn-shop CNC.
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:34 PM - NFOsec: LOL
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:34 PM - NFOsec: sorry. couldn't resist.
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:35 PM - Mike Glass: I have done large signs with my carvewright, simple actually
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:35 PM - NFOsec: now I KNOW a 6500mm x 250 mm could be ordered and served.
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:35 PM - jbigler1986: ha
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:35 PM - NFOsec: single piece I'm talking about man, not tiled.
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:35 PM - jbigler1986: ^
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:35 PM - jbigler1986: that would be a large machine to do that at once
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:36 PM - Mike Glass: might be pusing it for the 5x10 table we are looking at.
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:42 PM - Mike Kelly: alright i've got movement on the CNC
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:42 PM - Mike Kelly: need to swap the wiring for the opposite side then it should be good
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:43 PM - jbigler1986:
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:43 PM - Mike Glass: burp n grind
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:45 PM - Mike Glass: whatever you do, dont hit home..at least without endstops.
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:45 PM - Mike Kelly: heh
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:46 PM - Bill Monroe:
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:46 PM - Mike Kelly: i need to wire up some endstops tonight
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:47 PM - Mike Glass: you dont need them really
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:48 PM - Mike Kelly: i know that
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:48 PM - Mike Kelly: but i have the parts so why not
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:48 PM - Mike Glass: how are you mounting yours?
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:49 PM - Mike Kelly: that part i haven't decided
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:49 PM - NFOsec: burp and grind, mounting, movement, boy, wierd convo.
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:49 PM - Mike Glass: I was thinking about making new clips for mine.
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:50 PM - Mike Kelly: it kinda depends where i set the 0,0 point to be
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:50 PM - Mike Glass: guy came to me yesterday, wants me to make him something that fits on his cam mount when not using it.
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:51 PM - Mike Glass: like a big spike, he said it is just a go-pro mount.
Oct 8, 2015 at 1:55 PM - Mike Glass: here ya go NFO http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:19380
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:04 PM - NFOsec: Yeah, that's what I have Sir.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:04 PM - NFOsec: good unicorn spit.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:04 PM - NFOsec: man, remind me to not try to do things when my eyes are tired.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:05 PM - NFOsec: finally got the brass in, perfected position, now going to reassemble, but I have to leave at 4:30 (CST) for 2 hours. shit. could have enjoyed trying to get a print up and running beforehand.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:05 PM - NFOsec: MG: good thing he didn't ask you to make something that he could mount.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:05 PM - NFOsec: you're not ready to laser or CNC that level of stuff yet.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:08 PM - NFOsec: summabitch.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:09 PM - NFOsec: the heat sink fan appears to have never been sitting in its' mount, now I know why, it's not mounted inside it.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:09 PM - NFOsec: damn it.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:09 PM - NFOsec: no effing way I'll find one around here.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:12 PM - Mike Glass: hmm what is missing?
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:13 PM - NFOsec: there should be at least 3 or 4 points holding the fan inside the frame. There is only 1!

 

Oct 8, 2015 at 2:13 PM - NFOsec: so the fan wobbles around. My wife did say it was a noisy machine, but I always thought it was PSU because that's what people said.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:14 PM - NFOsec: but you can push and move the fan around.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:14 PM - NFOsec: sunnabitch. I need to get a new one, Robo clearly doesn't have that on their parts thing.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:14 PM - Mike Glass: put a v6 on it and get it over with
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:14 PM - NFOsec: GDit.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:15 PM - NFOsec: I just want a new fan, will move to v6 maybe next week when I have time.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:15 PM - NFOsec: I wonder if RadioSlack has this.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:15 PM - Mike Glass: just hot glue it on
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:16 PM - NFOsec: ha. funny, no dice. taking picture now.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:16 PM - Mike Glass: seriously? half my robo is glued
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:19 PM - NFOsec: oops/
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:19 PM - NFOsec:
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:20 PM - NFOsec: there is nothing to really glue to.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:22 PM - Mike Glass: hymm thats is crazy
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:25 PM - NFOsec: you see the top notch? that's it.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:25 PM - NFOsec: how the hell do I get robo to send me a new one paid or not?
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:25 PM - Mike Glass: how the hell did you do that?
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:26 PM - NFOsec: I didn't do anything, I took off the screws, unmounted the extruder, when I went to screw it in I noticed it was wobbly.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:26 PM - NFOsec: my wife told me last week this thing was loud. but it might have been that rumbling along. I woudln't know.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:26 PM - Mike Glass: submit for parts replacement
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:26 PM - NFOsec: I need this tomorrow, doubt they'll work that fast.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:27 PM - Mike Glass: that is the loudest part on the robo btw
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:27 PM - Mike Glass: yea lucky if you get it in a month from robo
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:28 PM - NFOsec: the heat sink fan?
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:29 PM - Mike Glass: yep
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:29 PM - NFOsec: so, any specs on this, maybe I can find something at RadioSlack or someplace. I can't afford weeks downtime.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:29 PM - Mike Glass: 25mm 12 volts
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:30 PM - NFOsec: 25mm 12v ok.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:31 PM - NFOsec: amazon or ebay perhaps option?
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:31 PM - Mike Glass: not sure I ever found one on amazon
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:31 PM - Printed Solid: you probably could pull a fan off of something else and just zip tie it until something gets there.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:31 PM - Printed Solid: that's the hexagon fan right?
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:31 PM - Mike Glass: correct
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:32 PM - Printed Solid: I've got a few extra and can send you one for shipping / paypal fees, but it won't get there tomorrow.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:32 PM - NFOsec: what do you think?
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:32 PM - NFOsec: https://www.amazon.com/Gdstime-2-5c...=UTF8&qid=1444340207&sr=8-3&keywords=25mm+fan
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:32 PM - Mike Glass: that should work
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:32 PM - NFOsec: Thanks PS, but I'd rather pay expedited if I need to because I have a proof of concept I committed to. stupid enough of me.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:32 PM - Printed Solid: the hex fan is actually a 5v fan.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:33 PM - NFOsec: I live < 10 miles from a major Amazon distribution center. maybe there is a local same day or next day.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:33 PM - NFOsec: is it?
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:33 PM - Printed Solid: si
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:33 PM - Mike Glass: on the R+?
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:33 PM - NFOsec: MG, trying to screw me over for your laser purchase man?
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:33 PM - NFOsec: R1 +plus that is.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:33 PM - Printed Solid: ya.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:34 PM - Printed Solid: hexagon fan = 5v.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:34 PM - NFOsec: it says 12v 10a on it.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:34 PM - Mike Glass: yea
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:34 PM - Mike Glass: so does mine
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:34 PM - Printed Solid: the one on the heatsink or the parts fan?
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:34 PM - NFOsec: "snow fan"
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:34 PM - NFOsec: heat sink sir.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:34 PM - Printed Solid: alright. I guess they changed it.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:34 PM - NFOsec: btw, get your hotends stocked yet?
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:34 PM - Printed Solid: Nothing like being confusing.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:34 PM - NFOsec: no problem.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:35 PM - NFOsec: ok, I'll shoot for that one MG. thanks PS.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:35 PM - Printed Solid: yeah. I've always had hot ends stocked. was there one you were looking for that was listed out of stock?
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:35 PM - NFOsec: nothing like a hodge-podge of changed parts between iterations of Robo.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:35 PM - NFOsec: yeah.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:35 PM - NFOsec: I'll jump back in and look again, have an order to cover.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:36 PM - Printed Solid: (Y)
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:36 PM - Printed Solid: If you don't need it right this minute, you might want to hold off until Monday. I heard price may be dropping this weekend.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:36 PM - NFOsec: yeah, ok. nice rumor.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:37 PM - Printed Solid: yup. I am going to be dropping the prices on a bunch of things, but I need to completely rework shipping first, which is not a trivial project.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:39 PM - NFOsec: bastard.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:39 PM - jbigler1986: That's the shit I deal with
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:40 PM - NFOsec: I was talking about you, harassing the kids, ex.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:40 PM - NFOsec: haha. yeah, how stupid is that jb.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:40 PM - NFOsec: I'm sure it boils you, but don't crack.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:41 PM - jbigler1986: It does. Not worth it
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:42 PM - NFOsec: shit. 10/13 is earliest date for delivery.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:42 PM - NFOsec: man, I'm peeved. late, back in 1.5-2 hrs.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:52 PM - Mike Glass: and dont buy any crack.
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:52 PM - Mike Glass: see ya soon NFO
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:53 PM - jbigler1986: Just wanted to show you guys that not making this shit up
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:54 PM - Mike Glass: well why and how could you
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:56 PM - jbigler1986: Who the hell puts their kids to bed at 7?
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:57 PM - Mike Glass: I wish I could..lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:58 PM - Mike Glass: must be doing something without them, that early or she is flat out lying
Oct 8, 2015 at 2:58 PM - jbigler1986: Probably the first
Oct 8, 2015 at 4:12 PM - danzca6: what? sale at printedsolid.com Monday? Paypal is locked and loaded.
Oct 8, 2015 at 4:13 PM - danzca6: how small of a nozzle has anyone used with the Robo?
Oct 8, 2015 at 4:14 PM - danzca6: I was looking at getting the "fun pack", but it was oos last time, but I think I got an email that it is back
Oct 8, 2015 at 4:19 PM - danzca6: of course, I thought I heard that the hex can handle the E3D nozzles...the do have a bit of a different shape though
Oct 8, 2015 at 4:20 PM - Mike Kelly: longer threaded section so it would throw off the position of your ir sensor
Oct 8, 2015 at 4:22 PM - danzca6: DOH...I knew it....
Oct 8, 2015 at 4:23 PM - jbigler1986: uno is wired and firmware is uploaded. it's alive
Oct 8, 2015 at 4:24 PM - danzca6: I printed a medal for my friend who got second place in a half marathon (trails) and didn't get anything for it. Only first place got a medal. The .4 mm nozzle lost some details
Oct 8, 2015 at 4:25 PM - danzca6: I figure a .25 will look a lot better
Oct 8, 2015 at 4:25 PM - danzca6: even used silver justPLA filament. Looks nice, but can be a lot better
Oct 8, 2015 at 4:26 PM - Bill Monroe:
Oct 8, 2015 at 4:26 PM - danzca6: first print since adding the quick change and the IR. The IR isn't hooked up at the board yet, but nothing caught on fire
Oct 8, 2015 at 4:27 PM - danzca6: I must have clicked too quick bill....I get offline
Oct 8, 2015 at 4:27 PM - Bill Monroe: really
Oct 8, 2015 at 4:27 PM - danzca6: oh, there it is
Oct 8, 2015 at 4:27 PM - Bill Monroe: ok
Oct 8, 2015 at 4:28 PM - danzca6: man is that a 40mm fan on your extruder?
Oct 8, 2015 at 4:29 PM - Bill Monroe: it's whatever comes with the V6

 

Oct 8, 2015 at 4:30 PM - danzca6: wait...that's not a robbie part...lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 4:31 PM - Bill Monroe: shhhh... I dont want that to get back to Harry
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:07 PM - NFOsec: creating arbitrary part numbers again Bill?
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:13 PM - Mike Glass: NFO
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:13 PM - Mike Glass: question for ya
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:13 PM - NFOsec: sure MG.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:14 PM - NFOsec: btw, I decided to laser cut a piece for the fan.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:14 PM - NFOsec: can't find crap.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:14 PM - Mike Glass: have you dont denim before
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:14 PM - NFOsec: not sure what the fan or frame can tolerate for heat levels, but I figured some 1/4" acrylic should be fine.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:14 PM - Mike Glass: nice
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:14 PM - NFOsec: yes I have dont denim before.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:14 PM - NFOsec: done that is.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:14 PM - Mike Glass: lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:14 PM - NFOsec: why?
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:15 PM - Mike Glass: just seems to turn brown not white
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:15 PM - NFOsec: you might be going too deep and burning.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:15 PM - Mike Glass: power of 8 speed of 150
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:15 PM - NFOsec: or not deep enough. oh, go faster man.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:15 PM - Mike Glass: if I go any lower it dont to anything
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:15 PM - NFOsec: let me see my settings.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:16 PM - Mike Glass: although this pretty worn out jeans im testing on.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:18 PM - Mike Glass: maybe my graphics was to much I dithered it down now see what happens.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:18 PM - NFOsec: My speed was pretty high, 500-600%, power was low, maybe 10-20%
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:18 PM - NFOsec: I kind of followed the guidance from an instructable. let me send you the link I used.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:19 PM - NFOsec: http://www.instructables.com/id/Happy-Pants-laser-etched-denim-jeans/
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:19 PM - Mike Glass: they are using 100 spped
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:19 PM - Mike Glass: guess just keep adjusting
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:20 PM - NFOsec: yes, as did I. I don't think I ever did fabric under 500.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:20 PM - NFOsec: also, I'd say 500 with 15 which is what I did for my black ones.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:20 PM - NFOsec: you have to increase until you get the contrast you want.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:20 PM - NFOsec: but brown sounds like a burn out. too slow.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:21 PM - NFOsec: does that help?
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:22 PM - NFOsec: the real lightweight jeans are not the most desirable, but rather the stronger ones.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:22 PM - Mike Glass: yea was just testing on some old one before i start..lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:22 PM - Mike Glass: they are really light though
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:23 PM - Mike Glass: 500/15 get a pic
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:24 PM - Mike Glass: its better, but almost golden
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:25 PM - NFOsec: OK, go a little lighter.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:25 PM - NFOsec: 10% or 550/15
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:25 PM - Mike Glass: http://imgur.com/3pctyV8
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:28 PM - NFOsec: are you focused? those look like big lines? Is that a bitmap? Did you adjust contrast?
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:28 PM - NFOsec: using corel there is a simple 4-step process for making laser pictures look good.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:28 PM - Mike Glass: I shrank it down pretty small, I now made it bigger
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:29 PM - NFOsec: I can tell you if you give a damn, but those lines look wide vs. sharp.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:29 PM - NFOsec: let me pull one up and show you my results.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:29 PM - Mike Glass: my other ones are really sharp
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:35 PM - NFOsec: ok.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:36 PM - NFOsec: waiting for Corel to load.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:39 PM - Mike Glass: I cant even get it work on mine anymore, wont even uninstall
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:40 PM - NFOsec: oh?
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:40 PM - NFOsec: probably have something running on the background, you should run uninstall after rebooting (as administrator).
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:40 PM - NFOsec: RDworks installed as adminstrator and runas adminstrator helped me too.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:40 PM - Mike Glass: yea done that just sits there forever
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:41 PM - Mike Glass: im doing a pair of black jeans now.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:41 PM - Mike Glass: still looks brownish
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:43 PM - Mike Glass: looking good though.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:43 PM - Mike Glass: do you dither most of yours?
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:47 PM - Mike Glass: much better. http://imgur.com/r0tXgWC
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:47 PM - NFOsec: actually not text, photos, yeah, contrast. gimme a second, trying to print one for you.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:48 PM - NFOsec: nadayet.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:51 PM - bamhm182: Hey guys
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:51 PM - NFOsec: I see it.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:51 PM - Mike Glass: hey Bam
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:51 PM - NFOsec: nice.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:51 PM - NFOsec: bam.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:52 PM - NFOsec: taking photo 1 sec. did text, no lines, uniform fill, 20% black (grey).
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:52 PM - bamhm182: That's pretty sweet, Mike
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:53 PM - NFOsec: HA. didn't realize I had it at 30% power.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:53 PM - NFOsec: jesuit.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:53 PM - Mike Glass: oh my
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:53 PM - Mike Glass: thanks bam, learning alot
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:54 PM - NFOsec: no shit.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:54 PM - NFOsec: I laugh because you say "ooh, looks nice" then you touch the fabric and everything falls straight off.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:54 PM - NFOsec: LOL.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:54 PM - bamhm182: So what exactly is that, etching jeans with lasers?
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:55 PM - NFOsec: yeah, it's a hot thing for those who like hot things.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:55 PM - NFOsec: decent laser etched jeans go for about $150-175/.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:55 PM - NFOsec: you just don't want a $20 ass to go in them.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:55 PM - Mike Glass: or more I have seen
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:55 PM - NFOsec: right, if you've got some really good designs.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:56 PM - NFOsec: but I'm talking about off the shelf levis, wranglers with designs not high end camel toe jeans.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:57 PM - bamhm182: Jesus
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:58 PM - bamhm182: I haven't bought jeans in forever and the ones I have were no more than $30 or $40
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:58 PM - bamhm182: Don't know why someone would pay a few hundred dollars for jeans
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:58 PM - NFOsec: well, you're probably still in coveralls then bam bam.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:58 PM - Mike Glass: lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:58 PM - NFOsec: to make their ass look bigger than it really is.
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:58 PM - bamhm182: lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:59 PM - Mike Glass: I did that at 550/13
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:59 PM - Mike Glass: lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 5:59 PM - NFOsec:
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:00 PM - bamhm182: Haha
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:00 PM - NFOsec: 500/15
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:00 PM - NFOsec: one of the other things they have are wash-outs, you can sort of wash the jeans and bleach out the exposed pigments.
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:05 PM - Mike Kelly: mg what feed rate do you use on your mpcnc
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:05 PM - Mike Glass: mostly just 10-15 and 5 for the z
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:06 PM - bamhm182: So I printed out one of the cable chains that Novice Expert uses, and I'm waiting for the motor mount and side mount to print. I'm having more fun than I should admit playing with the cable chain though
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:06 PM - NFOsec: you could make a mint MG.
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:06 PM - Mike Glass: unless you have a 1/4 bits then you can step it up.

 

Oct 8, 2015 at 6:06 PM - NFOsec: bam: those looked cool, how long did it take?
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:07 PM - Mike Glass: they are fun, I printed a like 8 feet of them
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:07 PM - bamhm182: Crap, accidentally hit delete
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:07 PM - NFOsec: fast prints?
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:07 PM - NFOsec: well, accidently hit ctrl-Y
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:08 PM - bamhm182: Didn't do anything
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:08 PM - bamhm182: It took like 3 1/2 hours each set of 19 that I printed off, one in red and one in black
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:08 PM - NFOsec: ctlr-Z sorry.
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:08 PM - NFOsec: ok. cool.
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:08 PM - bamhm182: Then the motor mount is taking another 3 1/2 hours or so
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:09 PM - bamhm182: The case mount shouldn't take that long, I'm not sure that I want to bolt it to the top though
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:09 PM - NFOsec: well, I'm going to laser cut a fan frame mount, then break the fan/wires out of the broken mount I have.
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:09 PM - bamhm182: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:954170/#files
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:09 PM - bamhm182: That's the motor mount I used
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:09 PM - NFOsec: cool beans.
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:09 PM - NFOsec: do it in a neon color?
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:09 PM - NFOsec: you have been color blind lately.
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:09 PM - bamhm182: I'm kind of thinking about rigging something up the will bolt the cable chain onto the smooth rod
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:13 PM - danzca6: Bam... Robobeast thread had an alternate connector for that chain
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:13 PM - bamhm182:
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:14 PM - NFOsec: cool coral snake.
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:14 PM - danzca6: It mounted down to by the hole on the right
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:15 PM - Mike Glass: hey dan
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:15 PM - Mike Glass: that is cool looking bam
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:15 PM - bamhm182: The red looks a lot less washed out in real life
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:15 PM - Mike Glass: yea we know your a pink fan..lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:16 PM - bamhm182: I actually just used up the last of my pink
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:16 PM - danzca6: http://community.robo3d.com/index.php?threads/the-makings-of-a-beast.6141/#post-51151
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:17 PM - bamhm182: Thanks, dan
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:17 PM - bamhm182:
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:17 PM - danzca6: It's something I found the other day. The chain is pretty cool
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:19 PM - bamhm182: That's Porygon, a digital pokemon, for those not in the know. One of my friends pointed out that I had all of these pokemon that I printed out, but I didn't have the one that is actually downloaded from the internet and fabricated in the pokemon world, and therefore I was wrong, so I had to print 2
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:19 PM - bamhm182: Jesus, that Robobeast is insane
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:19 PM - danzca6: Very ambitious
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:20 PM - danzca6: MG, how's the life of the laser king
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:20 PM - danzca6: Did I read something about you using it on denim
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:21 PM - Mike Glass: yea its neat on clothing
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:22 PM - danzca6: I had no idea that was an option
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:22 PM - Mike Glass: going to do this pair of carharrts with a bunch of junk..lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:23 PM - danzca6: Just don't try doing any vision corrective surgery with that thing
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:23 PM - bamhm182: I like that cable chain mount, but I don't think he shared the stl
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:24 PM - Mike Glass: na, I just finished my tattoo though with it , looks pretty good but hurt like a beyatch
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:24 PM - danzca6: Hmmm, thought I saw it somewhere. I'll see if I can find it bam
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:24 PM - NFOsec: MG: what do you think - http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1404425
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:24 PM - danzca6: Lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:25 PM - NFOsec: instead of motor mounting, fan mounting.
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:25 PM - Mike Glass: could work
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:25 PM - NFOsec: was thinking of a simple cross design against open corners.
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:25 PM - bamhm182: Nevermind, think I found it
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:26 PM - Mike Glass: except its going to take 1000 pases to cut alum.
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:29 PM - NFOsec: no, not using alum, just a simple design concept.
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:29 PM - NFOsec: needed open air.
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:31 PM - Mike Glass: what you need is a 40mm to 25mm adaptor
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:39 PM - NFOsec: what I need is a simple X with holes at 20mm each corner
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:40 PM - bamhm182: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:350116 How do you think this attaches to the motor? It sounds like I have to drill a hole in my motor
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:41 PM - bamhm182: I'm thinking about modifying it so it attaches better and also integrate the cable chain clip directly into it instead of having it drilled into the side like the Robobeast guy has his
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:42 PM - NFOsec: looks like just zip-tied on and hanging of the bottom ledge.
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:42 PM - NFOsec: I saw a "clip" for mounting I thought?
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:43 PM - danzca6: sounds like he did a mod of it...surprised he didn't load the remix somewhere
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:43 PM - bamhm182: "Use a M3 screw and bolt to hold it in place behind the X axis motor."
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:43 PM - bamhm182: He just bolted in on there
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:43 PM - danzca6: there is a hole there for it to mount to...just don't see the part having anything to bolt it to the plate on it
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:43 PM - NFOsec: cool.
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:44 PM - danzca6: hole on the motor mount
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:44 PM - jbigler1986: damnit
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:44 PM - danzca6: I just saved it for later without taking too close of a look at it
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:44 PM - danzca6: I didn't want to drill 4 holes in the upper case and have to detach each time I take the top off
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:45 PM - bamhm182: Oh, I never even saw that hole there
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:45 PM - bamhm182: I still think I'm going to modify it to actually have the end of the cable chain and the mount be one piece though
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:45 PM - bamhm182: Yeah, that was my big thing too, danzca
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:46 PM - danzca6: if you come up with a solution to that, I would love to get a copy. Might be going down that path in a couple weeks
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:46 PM - danzca6: looks like it will save some length on the cables having it route through the chain
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:48 PM - danzca6: My IR cable was a bit short routing through the stock loom and was thinking of trying to get back a couple inches
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:49 PM - Mike Glass: stretch that cable dan
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:50 PM - danzca6: bam, here is the stl from the robo beast http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:922004/#files
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:51 PM - danzca6: he has everything from the project on there
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:53 PM - danzca6: MG, you are on fire tonight....haha
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:53 PM - danzca6: Got a pic of what you did to the denim?
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:56 PM - Mike Glass: http://imgur.com/r0tXgWC
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:56 PM - danzca6: << jaw drop >>
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:57 PM - danzca6: how does it turn white?
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:57 PM - Mike Glass: FM I guess
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:57 PM - Mike Glass: burns the dye out?
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:57 PM - danzca6: I had no idea a laser was that versatile
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:58 PM - Mike Glass: Metal will be cool also but need cermack to etch on metal first
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:59 PM - danzca6: Just, please, don't print JUICY across any jeans
Oct 8, 2015 at 6:59 PM - Mike Glass: Iphone etchings are the big craze now also
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:00 PM - danzca6: get enough samples of all that you can do with it and take them to a craft show and you will be in business
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:02 PM - bamhm182: Thanks, dan
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:02 PM - danzca6: hope that helps
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:03 PM - NFOsec: MG, that's how I paid for my "laser", 150 phone/phone cases.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:04 PM - danzca6: I might have to search youtube for a compilation of all that you can do with a laser...I hope Santa can fit one down my chimney this year
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:06 PM - danzca6: wow, you can laser engrave on metal...so you could personalize guns, knifes, all sorts with that
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:07 PM - Mike Glass: lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:07 PM - NFOsec: have done gun stocks, a couple paisleys but never on barrels, etc.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:07 PM - danzca6: you can even use it on candy hearts...this thing is the all in one show
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:07 PM - NFOsec: Cermark takes practice to be good.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:10 PM - NFOsec: done on cookies, toast, twinkies
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:10 PM - Mike Glass: how did your twinkie taste after you etched it
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:11 PM - danzca6: good question

 

Oct 8, 2015 at 7:11 PM - NFOsec: toasted naturally.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:11 PM - NFOsec: I actually do a scrub down if I do food.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:11 PM - Mike Glass: lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:11 PM - NFOsec: don't need residual dust, etc. in there.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:11 PM - Mike Glass: I just did a snakeskin on the jeans.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:15 PM - NFOsec: pattern you m ean?
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:15 PM - NFOsec: that's cool.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:16 PM - Mike Glass: yea, I turned the power down and wasnt completly flat so left a light spot but really cool affect.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:17 PM - jbigler1986: hmmm
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:17 PM - jbigler1986: z moves up instead of down when running the gcode
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:17 PM - NFOsec: yeah., sometimes if I want variances I put papertowel or other things under to raise/lower fabrics.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:18 PM - NFOsec:
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:18 PM - danzca6: that's pretty to the point there
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:18 PM - NFOsec: I thought about branding FAT = FAT ASS TWINKIES
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:18 PM - Mike Glass: lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:19 PM - NFOsec: could make a novelty killing 365 days a year. Maybe even get WIC coverage.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:22 PM - NFOsec: Well, laser cut a new mount for the heat sink fan, will mount it soon.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:22 PM - danzca6: that pic is going to make people thing you 3d printed a twinkie...yum
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:22 PM - NFOsec: Yeah, I've done lots of 3d prints.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:22 PM - Mike Glass: you could do peanuts also..
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:23 PM - NFOsec: may favorite is printing with CLEAR filament. see it on a piece of wood?
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:24 PM - NFOsec: and cracker jacks?
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:25 PM - danzca6: wait, you printed that clear with the ROBO?
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:25 PM - NFOsec: yup. MG showed me how.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:26 PM - NFOsec: stock Robo3D R1 ++laser
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:26 PM - danzca6: that is crystal clear...solid infil I take it
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:26 PM - NFOsec: somehow I see you shaking your head as a bobble-head right now.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:26 PM - NFOsec: actually that was probably 25% infill right MG?
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:26 PM - danzca6: yeah...having a hard time believing it
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:27 PM - NFOsec: haven't we had this discussion before? If it's too good to be true it...
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:28 PM - Mike Glass: now I got somebody wanting me to hook up with a local silksreening company..lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:28 PM - danzca6: you've opened the money door MG
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:28 PM - Mike Glass: why if I can produce it myslelf.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:31 PM - danzca6: you guys have a great night ... calling it early tonight...mind blown on this laser thing...again. I don't know how you do it with a 3d printer, laser, and cnc sitting around. I would never sleep again
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:31 PM - Mike Glass: sleep, whats sleep..lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:31 PM - Mike Glass: night dan
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:31 PM - NFOsec: take care
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:33 PM - Mike Glass: do you know what sleep is NFO?
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:34 PM - NFOsec: MG: sleep is overrated my friend.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:34 PM - NFOsec: like you, 4-5 hours is a cap.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:34 PM - Mike Glass: I should really go finish up a few signs I have to paint.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:35 PM - NFOsec: cool, well enjoy. I'm hoping to have a working fan situation shortly.,
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:35 PM - NFOsec: later.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:35 PM - Mike Glass: na into getting this pair of jeans done .
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:35 PM - Mike Glass: good luck
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:38 PM - daniel871: Well, I learned tonight that veteran baptist ministers think they're above consequences if they hit your parked car.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:39 PM - Mike Glass: nice
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:39 PM - Mike Glass: do you have a gif for that one..lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:42 PM - daniel871: No. I'll have a nice repair bill to deal with if their insurance doesn't pay up.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:43 PM - daniel871: Dude thought an F-150 would fit between my car and the sign for the restaurant I was at.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:43 PM - daniel871: He was wrong.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:44 PM - daniel871: Purely cosmetic damage, but still.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:49 PM - daniel871: My favorite part was how mad he got when I looked at his truck, the gap he tried to park it in and asked him what the hell he was thinking.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:50 PM - Mike Glass: haha
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:50 PM - daniel871: Thats when the war veteran baptist minister rant started.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:50 PM - Mike Glass: so he pulled the ole minister card out
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:50 PM - daniel871: Yeah.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:51 PM - Mike Glass: you should of told him you couldnt tell him who you worked for, but you could have hime deported.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:51 PM - daniel871: "Don't be a smartass to me! I'm a minister and a veteran so show me some respect!"
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:52 PM - Mike Glass: Sir, Im being logical, are you effin kidding me. that would of been my response.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:53 PM - daniel871: I asked him how any of that was relevant to him trying to cram a truck in a space a motorcycle would have trouble parking in.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:55 PM - daniel871: "I could've drove off instead of telling you about it, why are you being a smartass?"
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:57 PM - daniel871: "Because you did a very dumbass thing and deserve to be mocked for it. Hang on while I call the cops to report the accident."
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:57 PM - Mike Glass: haha
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:58 PM - Mike Glass: love how old people throw out smartass all the time.
Oct 8, 2015 at 7:59 PM - daniel871: Yeah, he really didn't like me calling the police to report it.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:00 PM - Mike Glass: probably didnt have insurance..lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:01 PM - daniel871: Well, not good insurance anyway.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:01 PM - Mike Kelly: bill it to his church, they have lots of money
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:02 PM - daniel871: He'll probably do that anyway.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:05 PM - Mike Glass: hows it going Mike
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:06 PM - daniel871: Ah well, I'm going to bed. One more day at work then the weekend.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:07 PM - Mike Glass: yep, night daniel
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:07 PM - Mike Kelly: mg so all the axis are working, just need to figure out the cam
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:08 PM - Mike Glass: everything move in the right direction in repetier?
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:09 PM - Mike Glass: and bed configured?
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:09 PM - Mike Kelly: yup right direction
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:31 PM - NFOsec: get out, walk up to the person, state: "You know sir, I'm sorry, but I can't use words of that nature, but I do hope that when you get home your mother comes out from under the porch and bites you". Classic response to a cursing party to an accident.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:33 PM - Mike Glass: lol
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:47 PM - Kevin Nguyen: yoyoyoyo for those thread in thermistors for the e3d do i have to change firmware again?
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:49 PM - NFOsec: MG: what did you mean 40mm to 25mm adapter?
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:52 PM - Mike Glass: use a 40mm fan
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:52 PM - Mike Glass: adapt it to the 25mm
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:53 PM - Mike Glass: you would probably have to print something like that though
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:53 PM - NFOsec: mmm... key is has to be 12v 10a I guess.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:53 PM - NFOsec: yeah, but you have to have something to print with to print duh.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:57 PM - NFOsec: can't find anything on ebay, amazon's is out by 3-4 days.
Oct 8, 2015 at 8:57 PM - NFOsec: this is really bs.

 

Oct 8, 2015 at 9:01 PM - Mike Glass: I thought you had another printer
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:02 PM - NFOsec: I took that down because it's a CNC platform I retrofitted for 3DP.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:02 PM - NFOsec: I've been trying to have dedicated systems.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:03 PM - NFOsec: I wanted one CNC, one Laser, one 3DP.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:03 PM - Bill Monroe: back
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:03 PM - NFOsec: I knew putting that brass tubing in on a Thursdsay was going to cost me.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:03 PM - NFOsec: greets bill.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:05 PM - Bill Monroe: man, the citrus trees are really putting out the night fragrance right now...
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:06 PM - NFOsec: so there is a hot lemon or orange out there for you yet?
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:06 PM - NFOsec: that's cool.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:07 PM - bamhm182: Hey Bill, what do you use to mount your camera to your Robo?
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:08 PM - bamhm182: I had a thing I could connect to my pegboard, but I didn't want to broadcast my messy workbench to the world, so I printed out this thing that connects to the bed, but my C920 kept trying to focus and it made the video look like crap, so I'm thinking that something stationary would work the best
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:08 PM - NFOsec: bam: I think Bill mentioned he tripoded off the side.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:08 PM - Bill Monroe: I printed one
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:09 PM - Bill Monroe: the stand that came with it broke, so I devised one of my own.. not a tripod though
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:09 PM - NFOsec: I actually used a tripod mounted camera so I didn't get any shake and bake.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:09 PM - Bill Monroe: looks more like a beer stein
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:09 PM - NFOsec: ah.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:09 PM - NFOsec: I did print the table mounted one but I wasn't happy with the results.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:09 PM - NFOsec: lol, drink up man, drink up.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:10 PM - NFOsec: bam: I had a similar, so I ended up going with a carbon tripod. if you have a stable table you can use a mini pod, otherwise a floor model.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:10 PM - NFOsec: those 16" tripods are perfect for 3" to 16"
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:10 PM - NFOsec: under $10.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:10 PM - NFOsec: free if you steal it.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:11 PM - Bill Monroe: welcome to the 80's :
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:13 PM - NFOsec: I do that with a pen / knife adapter on my CNC. I drop vector line art (typically half-tone images) and draw away.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:13 PM - NFOsec: it's a fun way to do portraits.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:13 PM - NFOsec: that's a little slow, but it's still cool.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:14 PM - Bill Monroe: I was just doing it to check accuracy and tuning
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:14 PM - NFOsec: that's cool.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:14 PM - NFOsec: It really looks like it's playing out well.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:14 PM - Bill Monroe: so far.. the squares and circles I did later were dead on
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:15 PM - bamhm182: Most the time recently I've been printing without the top on. I think I want to build something that sits on one of those nut holders for the top
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:15 PM - NFOsec: ah, considering the medium, it would need to be a little soft.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:15 PM - NFOsec: that's cool. it's so neat doing drawings/plottings/etc.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:15 PM - bamhm182: Is that one of the MPCNCs, Bill?
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:15 PM - Bill Monroe: oh HELL no
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:15 PM - NFOsec: lol.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:15 PM - bamhm182: Haha
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:16 PM - Bill Monroe: I couldnt show my face in a meeting of my peers if I actually sunk that low
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:16 PM - bamhm182: lmao
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:16 PM - bamhm182: What's the big deal?
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:16 PM - NFOsec: lol.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:17 PM - Mike Kelly: sounds like horrible peers
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:17 PM - NFOsec: that's a whole other class of people bam.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:17 PM - NFOsec: they would probably get bill committed if they found out he was using something like that.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:17 PM - bamhm182: I'm just a lowly little pleb impressed by cheap knockoffs of these confounded future machines
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:19 PM - NFOsec: well, I couldn't get a 25x25mm 12v 10a fan anywhere fast, so it looks like I'm SOL for a few days now.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:20 PM - Mike Glass: .1 amp I believe
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:20 PM - Mike Glass: The picture you showed is that how it came out?
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:21 PM - Mike Glass: the sticker should alway go toward the heat source.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:21 PM - NFOsec: the sticker was away from the heat source.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:21 PM - Mike Glass: oh now
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:21 PM - NFOsec: but point is, there were no mounts on anywhere except the top piece.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:21 PM - Mike Glass: no
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:22 PM - Mike Glass: it was in backwards then.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:22 PM - Mike Glass: damn qc
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:22 PM - NFOsec: Good effing God.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:23 PM - NFOsec: I figured the fan would be blowing into the sink and not drawing heat away since it isn't big enough to draw.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:24 PM - NFOsec: but it peeves me to no end that a part is more obscure than it should be.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:24 PM - NFOsec: we have an American Science Surplus store in Milwaukee and a Chester's Electronics (a big old nolstagic and part modern electronics store) in Kenosha.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:25 PM - NFOsec: I may try one or the other tomorrow.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:25 PM - NFOsec: Robo sent me a really cool automated message that they got my replacement part requeste and that they work 24/7 for support.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:25 PM - NFOsec: LOL.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:25 PM - NFOsec: lies, all lies I tell you.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:26 PM - Mike Glass: Yea I neglected to get a spare 25mm so im just going to the v6 it has a much quieter 30mm fan
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:26 PM - NFOsec: I don't have time to wire up, print parts, etc. for v6 right now.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:27 PM - NFOsec: didn't see a cause or need at the moment, and noise doesn't mean anything to me with respects to the fan, etc.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:27 PM - NFOsec: maybe I'll put the robo in the "laser" and blast the mutha.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:28 PM - NFOsec: well, I'm frustrated, going to watch shit on TV I DVR'd.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:28 PM - NFOsec: take it easy.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:28 PM - Bill Monroe: Here's the Camera Stein:
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:28 PM - NFOsec: that's cool.
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:29 PM - Bill Monroe: took awhile to find it
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:32 PM - Bill Monroe: oops 2.0 is sittin in the jacuzzi giving me the stinkeye... cya later...
Oct 8, 2015 at 9:36 PM - bamhm182: haha, later
Oct 9, 2015 at 3:55 AM - daniel871: Well, confirmed this morning that the filament is the issue for the drive gear. Apparently the PLA I have is too soft/whatever. Put in a roll of ABS and resliced and ran the program last night and it was about 88% done this morning before I left for work and still running like it should.
Oct 9, 2015 at 4:46 AM - janot928: i've just found the best way to dry my filament; a Fortus 3d printer 's heat chamber
Oct 9, 2015 at 4:47 AM - jbigler1986: morning
Oct 9, 2015 at 4:48 AM - Bill Monroe: jb
Oct 9, 2015 at 4:49 AM - janot928: evening
Oct 9, 2015 at 4:53 AM - jbigler1986: just realized i need to invert z and y in the firmware itself. doh. invert it in the controller only inverts it for manual moving
Oct 9, 2015 at 4:53 AM - jbigler1986: noob failure
Oct 9, 2015 at 4:53 AM - jbigler1986: How are you guys on this wonderful Friday
Oct 9, 2015 at 4:54 AM - Bill Monroe: pretty good.. cleaning day
Oct 9, 2015 at 4:54 AM - Bill Monroe: u?
Oct 9, 2015 at 4:54 AM - jbigler1986: good. Sunday is my last day of probation. Oh yeah.
Oct 9, 2015 at 4:55 AM - Bill Monroe: yay!
Oct 9, 2015 at 4:55 AM - jbigler1986: so can't throw that shit in my face anymore
Oct 9, 2015 at 4:56 AM - jbigler1986: so i have been trying to figure out why the hell z and y move in the wrong direction when i start a program. I literally just realized why
Oct 9, 2015 at 4:58 AM - jbigler1986: also the x axis was moving one direction then i would manually move it that direction again and it would go the opposite way. Was trying to figure that out for like an hour. Turns out I missed a pin when I plugged in the stepper to the board. So only 3 pins were connected. Haha
Oct 9, 2015 at 4:58 AM - Bill Monroe: oh brother
Oct 9, 2015 at 4:59 AM - jbigler1986: small stuff that i was totally overlooking
Oct 9, 2015 at 4:59 AM - Bill Monroe: i'm still in the testing/calibration process
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:00 AM - Bill Monroe: was running a sample gcode... didnt look good.
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:00 AM - jbigler1986: is it a pain getting the servos right?
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:01 AM - Bill Monroe: wrote my own doing simple geometric shapes and it's dead-on so, the sample gcode was just sloppy
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:01 AM - Bill Monroe: not really.. it's just a process
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:02 AM - Bill Monroe: mine has dual encoders on each axis so, it's more complicated but still, just a process
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:02 AM - jbigler1986: well yours is a beat so that's expected

 

Oct 9, 2015 at 5:02 AM - jbigler1986: beast
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:03 AM - Bill Monroe: heh.. it's actually just a pro-level machine.. the serious CNC is all like this
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:03 AM - daniel871: Hey, for the CES parts, is there any way to double check the measurements they're supposed to print to or are we flying blind if we're printing the parts?
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:03 AM - jbigler1986: I just can't believe the invert thing
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:03 AM - Bill Monroe: it happens.. fix it and forget it
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:04 AM - Bill Monroe: we're blind
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:04 AM - Bill Monroe: Harry insists that variances wont be a problem
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:04 AM - jbigler1986: using Aspire for cam. I like it a lot
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:04 AM - Bill Monroe: but he chewed me out for embedding stuff inside the parts
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:04 AM - jbigler1986: hahaha
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:05 AM - Bill Monroe: he actually drilled holes in them to take out the BBs
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:05 AM - daniel871: Mainly asking because the PLA I have on hand is crap, so I printed a part in ABS last night and it ran great but I'm not sure how the shrinkage will affect assembly.
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:05 AM - jbigler1986: that's no fun
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:05 AM - Bill Monroe: it'll be OK Dan
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:06 AM - daniel871: "Beggars can't be choosers"?
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:06 AM - Bill Monroe: Justin, I use CamWorks.. it's a gold-partner to Solidworks and is something of an add-on..
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:07 AM - danzca6: Bill, you really did put stuff in the robbie parts? That's too funny
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:07 AM - Bill Monroe: once the post-processor is tweaked, it's just a button-push to gcode
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:07 AM - jbigler1986: Bill, I installed HSMXpress for SW. It was to complicated for my likings
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:08 AM - jbigler1986: Yeah Aspire has the post processor I need. So no worries there
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:08 AM - Bill Monroe: once I made a huge cavity inside and filled it with plumbing parts and old ball bearings... he didnt like that al all
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:08 AM - Bill Monroe: I didnt like HSMX either
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:08 AM - daniel871: Really, I figured HSMXpress would be pretty sweet since it integrated with SW.
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:09 AM - Bill Monroe: i thought it was clunky.. but I know people who like it
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:09 AM - danzca6: well, i guess that was added S&H for you with all that weight
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:09 AM - daniel871: Maybe HSMWorks is better since it's the paid/unlocked version.
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:09 AM - Bill Monroe: there's a few diferent ones that integrate with SW
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:09 AM - daniel871: Whatever happened to SolidCAM?
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:09 AM - jbigler1986: Aspire is very simple and has a lot of good features
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:09 AM - daniel871: Or did they give up on that and just let MasterCAM keep on developing?
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:10 AM - Bill Monroe: I dunno.. are they in socal?
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:10 AM - jbigler1986: russian version of course. No way I am dropping $2k on it right now
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:10 AM - Bill Monroe: well mastercam IS hge cam leviathan so...
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:10 AM - Bill Monroe: hge-the
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:11 AM - jbigler1986: need to go pick up an cheap as old monitor today
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:11 AM - Bill Monroe: justin, are you planning on making actual useable parts or artsy stuff?
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:11 AM - daniel871: I think Justin is mainly doing artsy stuff when he isn't modifying the Robo carriage.
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:12 AM - jbigler1986: not sure. Probably artsy stuff with Aspire. Not sure how good it is for usuable parts
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:12 AM - Bill Monroe: my sonm brought back a huge sony all-in-one that he got from a guy inKorea that forgot to ship it with his household goods
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:13 AM - Bill Monroe: i gave him 100 bux for it
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:13 AM - daniel871: I keep meaning to go back and check out OnShape for designing printable parts and never actually get to it.
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:13 AM - jbigler1986: you suck
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:13 AM - Bill Monroe: now I can watch HD movies while the CNC is working away
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:14 AM - Bill Monroe: and the touch screen buttons are large enough for my fat fingers
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:14 AM - JeffTheMess: morning robonauts Happy friday
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:14 AM - jbigler1986: the axis are pretty beefy on my machine. Takes a ton of force to try to move them by hand
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:14 AM - jbigler1986: wtf Jeff
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:15 AM - Bill Monroe: Jeff
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:15 AM - JeffTheMess: sorry I did the Dan
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:15 AM - jbigler1986: I don't mind that one
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:16 AM - JeffTheMess: what you fellas up to
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:17 AM - Bill Monroe: composing a firmly-worded email to my ex-company's payroll chick for missing my first severence payment
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:17 AM - daniel871: "Where's my money, bitch?"
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:18 AM - daniel871: Inspired by that GIF.
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:18 AM - JeffTheMess: Fuck you, Pay me
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:18 AM - daniel871: Also, I don't embed the GIFs any more unless they are funny enough to make me choke on my coffee.
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:19 AM - JeffTheMess: lol
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:19 AM - Bill Monroe: naw.. my style is more like sending my attourney over for a little raymond reddington "come to jesus" conversation
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:21 AM - daniel871: Oh yeah, that show is back on.
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:21 AM - daniel871: Your lawyer gets people drunk and kills them?
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:22 AM - Bill Monroe: he just has a chat.. things sem to happen swiftly after than
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:22 AM - Bill Monroe: seem
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:23 AM - Bill Monroe: fear can be useful
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:24 AM - Bill Monroe: ive never witnessed it, but I like to imagine he just smiles and compliments them while he gives them the facts of the situation..
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:24 AM - Bill Monroe: cuz that's how he is
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:25 AM - Bill Monroe: after that, folks are convinced they better get crakin or they themselves are going to be in some hot water
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:25 AM - JeffTheMess: seems nice
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:26 AM - daniel871: http://i.imgur.com/T1VvFla.gif
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:26 AM - JeffTheMess: thats cool dan, ive seen it but very cool illusion
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:30 AM - Bill Monroe: anyone watch that Penn & Teller show?
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:30 AM - daniel871: Huh. It's a portal to the internet that used to be Geocities websites. http://www.cameronsworld.net/
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:30 AM - daniel871: Nope.
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:31 AM - daniel871: The one called Bullshit, right?
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:31 AM - Bill Monroe: uh no
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:31 AM - daniel871: That's the only show with them I'm aware of.
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:32 AM - daniel871: "Penn and Teller's Bullshit" is the full title, ran until 2010 on Showtime IIRC.
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:32 AM - Bill Monroe: well, welcome to 2015.. they have a current show called "Fool Us"
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:33 AM - Bill Monroe: Penn lost a butt-ton of weight, and turn into a nice guy
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:33 AM - daniel871: I'm mostly aware of it because of this clip.
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:35 AM - Bill Monroe: i was never really into them, as much as I appreciate how long one must work to get to their level
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:36 AM - Bill Monroe: but 2.0 wanted to see them in the Vegas show so, a couple of years ago we flew up to catch it.
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:36 AM - Bill Monroe: I was totally converted that night... a couple of the nicest guys
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:38 AM - Bill Monroe: they TV show they have now brings out other magicians, they do one of their bits, and P&T see if they can tell them how they did it
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:38 AM - Bill Monroe: if they cant, the guest gets to open their show for them in Vegas
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:42 AM - Bill Monroe: well, guess tallking about magicians is a convo-killer in chat
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:43 AM - Bill Monroe: next up.. Ventriloquists..
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:45 AM - daniel871: It's almost 9:00 so most of us are probably trying to look busy for when the boss does their morning walk around "good morning I'm pretending to give a shit about you" patrol.
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:45 AM - daniel871: The ones on the East Coast anyway.
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:45 AM - daniel871: (others are probably commuting)
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:46 AM - Bill Monroe: ya, coming up on 6 here, and the only one walking around is 2.0 wearing almost nothing..
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:52 AM - jbigler1986: my boss isn't in today also I don't care what he sees me doing anyways
Oct 9, 2015 at 5:53 AM - Bill Monroe: throwing stuff out is liberating
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:15 AM - Bill Monroe: I need more trash cans.
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:16 AM - Bill Monroe: wait, my neighbor, who is now in a home and his kids are using his house as a party house, has 3 empty cans..
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:16 AM - toymaker: tawn
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:16 AM - toymaker: yawn
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:16 AM - Bill Monroe: wake the hell up.. days half over already
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:17 AM - toymaker:
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:18 AM - toymaker: nice morning how ever
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:18 AM - Bill Monroe: well, if you grew up Amish like I did.. it's half over

 

Oct 9, 2015 at 6:18 AM - toymaker: what time do u go to bed at
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:18 AM - Bill Monroe: is it? it's fantastic here too. 68 degrees and the sun is just rising in a cloudless sky
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:19 AM - Bill Monroe: last night around 9 or so
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:19 AM - Bill Monroe: late for me, been working on my cnc machine
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:20 AM - toymaker: im still gathering parts..seems i spend money faster than i get it
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:23 AM - jbigler1986: I have been going to bed at like 1am the past 2 or 3 days working on the cnc
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:23 AM - jbigler1986: I am feeling it today
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:23 AM - toymaker: <--jealous
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:24 AM - jbigler1986: well I cheated with mine. Found it already assembled at a pawn shop
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:24 AM - jbigler1986: just needed to add a controller to it
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:25 AM - toymaker: any pics? im curious about a cnc picked up froma pawn shop
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:25 AM - jbigler1986: yeah. 1 sec
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:27 AM - jbigler1986:
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:28 AM - jbigler1986: got it for $275
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:28 AM - toymaker: wow nice.. how much? nema 23?
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:28 AM - toymaker: lol
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:28 AM - jbigler1986: yeah nema 23
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:29 AM - jbigler1986: so after the electronics I have like $320 or so into it
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:29 AM - toymaker: im using a gecko 540 as a controller
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:29 AM - NFOsec: jb: sleep is overrated man!
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:29 AM - jbigler1986: agreed
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:29 AM - Bill Monroe: so far, I've only spent maybe 50 on some 80/20 extrusion for the table
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:30 AM - Bill Monroe: all my stuff was salvaged from other machines over the last 10-15 years
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:30 AM - jbigler1986: I normally only get like 5 hours of sleep a night. Which is perfect
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:30 AM - toymaker: what controller are u gnna use?
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:30 AM - NFOsec: except 2.0.
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:31 AM - jbigler1986: I am using uno with cnc shield. Works great for my use
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:31 AM - Bill Monroe: oh no.. 2.0 is very very special
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:31 AM - jbigler1986: with grbl
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:31 AM - NFOsec: precisely.
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:31 AM - Bill Monroe: crap. one of my monitors backlight just went out
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:32 AM - jbigler1986: amazon same day
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:32 AM - NFOsec: wow. I have yet to see that happen. weak maybe but not out.
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:32 AM - NFOsec: CRT Bill?
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:32 AM - Bill Monroe: heh, even *I* am more advanced than that
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:33 AM - NFOsec:
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:33 AM - Bill Monroe: all my CRT's ended their lives as Thompson Targets
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:33 AM - NFOsec: how's that TRS III Tandy computer running these days? 8" CPM floppy, 10mb bubble memory hard drive.
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:34 AM - Bill Monroe: heck I even have a laptop and all-in-one of my CNC machine with touchscreens
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:34 AM - Bill Monroe: tandy?!? I'm a commodore guy
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:34 AM - NFOsec: Oh Lord. Adam!
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:34 AM - toymaker: laser 128
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:34 AM - NFOsec: now those were the tinkering days...
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:35 AM - toymaker: zork!
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:35 AM - Bill Monroe: I need to get an adpater for the Vic20 though, my HD screen doesnt have an antenna input
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:35 AM - Bill Monroe: I plyed Zork on a mainframe when it was still called Adventure
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:35 AM - Bill Monroe: ...."you're in a clearing"
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:35 AM - toymaker: lol
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:36 AM - NFOsec: Man, I met the author of the first Zork game ever ported to computer -- it was getting ported to a Dec 10/100 mini computer. You are in a clearing, there is a mailbox.
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:36 AM - NFOsec: you are at the bottom of a chasm.
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:36 AM - Bill Monroe: over a 300 baud acoustic modem, no less
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:36 AM - NFOsec: hell, that was screaming for the time.
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:36 AM - Bill Monroe: it was!
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:36 AM - NFOsec: how many folks here have a CLUE what Y-modem, X-modem, etc. mean.
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:37 AM - Bill Monroe: and watching the responses print out on an ASR was riveting
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:37 AM - NFOsec: I remember back in the day I donated 24 - 2400 bps then later 14,4 bps modems to a local college/university because despite the fact they allowed me unfettered usage, I couldn't stand waiting for smoke signals.
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:37 AM - Matheo Stravlas: hello all
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:38 AM - jbigler1986: i am only 17 so i have no idea what that is NFO
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:38 AM - Bill Monroe: heh I did too.. smartmodems.. stackable cases
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:38 AM - NFOsec: one weekend I decided to map out zork, all on green bar paper (took 2 boxes, but it was fun).
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:38 AM - Matheo Stravlas: Is there anybody who can provide robo3d r1 plus firmware?
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:38 AM - NFOsec: jb: which? all?
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:39 AM - NFOsec: y/x modem were protocols that were used for communicating with a modem, a device used to call up and communicate with another computing system (similar to cable modems today which are always on).
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:39 AM - Matheo Stravlas: no , just for the new version
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:39 AM - NFOsec: there were other protocols (kermit, etc.) but just an example.
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:39 AM - jbigler1986: I lied. I'm not that young\
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:39 AM - jbigler1986: Matheo its on their website
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:39 AM - Matheo Stravlas: its not
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:39 AM - Bill Monroe: i have the sound they made before hookup as a ringtone
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:39 AM - NFOsec: jb: I know you're not, but I also know you're probably not into that techie stuff.
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:39 AM - NFOsec: lol.
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:40 AM - Matheo Stravlas: If you own a ROBO R1 +Plus, DO NOT update your 3D Printer. Please contact support if you need new firmware.
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:40 AM - NFOsec: for what speed bill?
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:40 AM - Bill Monroe: 1200
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:40 AM - Matheo Stravlas: I need to make reprap lcd to work
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:40 AM - NFOsec: a 300 baud connection would be a good way to fall asleep for a ring tone.
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:40 AM - jbigler1986: http://download.robo3d.com/firmware/R1/ROBO3D_LEADSCREW_V1.zip
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:40 AM - NFOsec: cool.
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:40 AM - Bill Monroe: no 9600 it goes through some trys first
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:40 AM - NFOsec: I think since the 14.4s came along and the high-speed screeching, ringtones have significantly changed.
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:40 AM - Matheo Stravlas: http://guide.robo3d.com/Wiki/ROBO_3D_Firmware_Release_Notes
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:41 AM - jbigler1986: matheo, full graphics or xxl?
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:41 AM - Matheo Stravlas: full graphics
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:41 AM - Bill Monroe: I used to hear some stuff on the earcups
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:41 AM - Bill Monroe: eh.. it's been awhile
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:41 AM - jbigler1986: did you add the ugl8 to arduino library?
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:42 AM - Matheo Stravlas: they dont gave me the firmware
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:43 AM - Matheo Stravlas: since they say not to upload previous firmware
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:43 AM - jbigler1986: i just gave you the link to it
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:43 AM - Matheo Stravlas: I'm kind of puzzled
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:43 AM - jbigler1986: the leadscrew firmware is the same as the R1+
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:43 AM - Matheo Stravlas: sure?
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:44 AM - jbigler1986: yes
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:44 AM - Matheo Stravlas: ok come asap
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:44 AM - jbigler1986: https://bintray.com/olikraus/u8glib/Arduino you need to add this to the arduino library
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:46 AM - jbigler1986: then you need to uncomment #define REPRAP_DISCOUNT_FULL_GRAPHIC_SMART_CONTROLLER in configuration.h
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:47 AM - Bill Monroe: the graphics display is like a blonde looking at cubic zirconias
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:48 AM - Bill Monroe: "ooo look, a sparklie"
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:48 AM - jbigler1986: hey now
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:48 AM - NFOsec: WOW.

 

Oct 9, 2015 at 6:48 AM - NFOsec: I'd stand back man....
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:48 AM - NFOsec:
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:49 AM - jbigler1986: says the person using an all in one with touch screen on his cnc.
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:49 AM - Bill Monroe: hey.. it was a c-note
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:50 AM - NFOsec: who's using an all-in-one touch screen? Bill? Did he create a matter-hacker control version?
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:50 AM - Bill Monroe: if they didnt lie by calling it "Full Graphics", no one would have given it a second glance
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:51 AM - Bill Monroe: naw.. my son brought it back from Korea
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:51 AM - Bill Monroe: one of his buddies forgot to pack it with his household goods, which had already left
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:52 AM - jbigler1986: yeah it's not exactly "full graphics"
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:52 AM - Bill Monroe: he paid him 100 bux for it and pack it with his stuff.. when he got here he cave it to his girlfriend, but she found it unusefull for her
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:52 AM - daniel871: Man, I need to get that wifi camera setup so I can look at my printer while at work.
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:52 AM - jbigler1986: weekend project
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:53 AM - Bill Monroe: so I gave her one of my laptops (she's in college) and 100 bux
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:53 AM - daniel871: Yeah.
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:53 AM - jbigler1986: and a bottle of wine?
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:54 AM - Bill Monroe: now, i have an awesome I5 huge screen for the CNC, and I can watch HD movies too
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:54 AM - Bill Monroe: and, it's "Full Graphics"
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:54 AM - jbigler1986: shhhhhh
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:54 AM - Bill Monroe: brb
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:54 AM - jbigler1986: i have a flat panel screen from like 1990 with mine. I can pretend like it's touchscreen
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:55 AM - NFOsec: that's definitely cool.
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:55 AM - jbigler1986: however i have one of my gaming pc's running it. Lol
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:57 AM - Bill Monroe: the laptop I just bought is supposedly designed for gaming, but I dunno
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:58 AM - daniel871: Most "gaming" rigs are only good for games that came out when it was designed.
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:58 AM - Bill Monroe: sure has a nice screen like apple's retina displays
Oct 9, 2015 at 6:59 AM - jbigler1986: i don't do 4k. it has dual r9 290x so it is more than capable for 1080 for the next couple years
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:00 AM - Bill Monroe: i have no idea what all that means
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:00 AM - jbigler1986: hell i very very even game anymore
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:00 AM - Bill Monroe: BUT, I can run a 4K
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:00 AM - jbigler1986: rarely
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:00 AM - jbigler1986: the r9 is a video card
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:01 AM - Bill Monroe: oh
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:01 AM - Bill Monroe: mine Cad stations has Nvidia cards
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:01 AM - Bill Monroe: station
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:01 AM - Bill Monroe: and now, one less monitor
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:01 AM - Bill Monroe: I dunno if I can handle only 5 until a replacement comes...
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:01 AM - jbigler1986: I really don't prefer amd over nvidia or vise versa
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:02 AM - jbigler1986: both have been good to me
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:02 AM - Bill Monroe: ya, they work.. any diffs are negligible
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:02 AM - jbigler1986: I do prefer intel over amd for cpu though
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:04 AM - jbigler1986: oh they have Grbl Controller for the pi
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:04 AM - Bill Monroe: I like Pi
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:04 AM - Bill Monroe: apple, with cheddar cheese melted over the top..
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:05 AM - jbigler1986: well that is pie*
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:05 AM - jbigler1986: that does not sound good Bill
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:05 AM - Bill Monroe: O
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:05 AM - Bill Monroe: ever tried it?
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:05 AM - jbigler1986: however I still want that meatloaf
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:05 AM - jbigler1986: I have not
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:05 AM - Bill Monroe: it's amazing...
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:06 AM - jbigler1986: could be good. Just saying it doesn't sound good
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:06 AM - Bill Monroe: ya, I know.. doesnt sound right but oh man is it good
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:07 AM - Bill Monroe: just like putting tuna on a baked potato sounds wierd but it's super delicious
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:07 AM - jbigler1986: pulled pork on a baked potato
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:08 AM - Bill Monroe: with avocado
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:09 AM - jbigler1986: mmmmmm
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:10 AM - Bill Monroe: avocado arent good right now though
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:10 AM - Bill Monroe: man,this is making me hungry
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:12 AM - NFOsec: Bill: I'm assuming you're talking about like a Mahi tuna and not canned.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:13 AM - Bill Monroe: canned works for me.. or o be precise, envelops
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:13 AM - Bill Monroe: envelopes
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:13 AM - Bill Monroe: I'm not a tuna snob
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:13 AM - NFOsec: yeah, the envelopes are 10x better than tinned.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:15 AM - Bill Monroe: 2.0 makes a tuna/egg salad combo that ricks my world
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:15 AM - Bill Monroe: and rocks it too
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:16 AM - NFOsec: that's interesting. she'll have to share that sometime I'm a big fan of each.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:18 AM - Bill Monroe: I told her that my mom used to make it.. she made it for me, it was perfect
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:19 AM - Bill Monroe: it's basically just tuna salad with a butt-ton of chopped up hard boild eggs... little diced onion and some diced sweet pickles
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:19 AM - NFOsec: ah, now that works good.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:20 AM - NFOsec: gotcha. thanks.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:20 AM - Bill Monroe: ya, healthy stuff too
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:20 AM - NFOsec: I usually make my own ham salad spread.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:20 AM - NFOsec: keep telling yourself that man... keep telling yourself that.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:20 AM - jbigler1986: I'm not a fan of egg whites
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:20 AM - Bill Monroe: ya, mom did too.. with an attachment for her kitchenaide
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:21 AM - Bill Monroe: tuna.. eggs.. it's fine
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:21 AM - NFOsec: yeah, I know. just ribbing ya.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:21 AM - Bill Monroe:
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:21 AM - Bill Monroe: 2.0 wont often make unhealthy stuff..
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:22 AM - Bill Monroe: and it shows
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:22 AM - NFOsec: thats great.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:22 AM - NFOsec: as long as it shows on YOU that's where it counts.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:23 AM - Bill Monroe: my smiling face is where ti shows.. especiually right now
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:23 AM - Bill Monroe: ... morning yoga
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:26 AM - Bill Monroe: 30 minutes till I make some payroll girl very unhappy
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:27 AM - jbigler1986: try the kind route first. I find that works way more than the other
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:28 AM - Bill Monroe: OK, I'll try
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:28 AM - Bill Monroe: but I'm locked and loaded
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:28 AM - Matheo Stravlas: everytime i try to compile the code it says error
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:29 AM - Bill Monroe: that used to happen to me on dates
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:29 AM - jbigler1986: did you install the u8gl?
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:29 AM - Matheo Stravlas: even with the *.rar you gave me
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:29 AM - Mike Glass: Heyho robojuggernuts.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:29 AM - Matheo Stravlas: Iput it in my library yes
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:29 AM - Bill Monroe: MG
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:29 AM - jbigler1986: what error are you getting
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:30 AM - jbigler1986: morning MG
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:30 AM - Mike Glass: morning, hows the weaher in cali today.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:30 AM - Bill Monroe: <-- is contemplating.. "RoboJuggs"
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:30 AM - Bill Monroe: it

 

Oct 9, 2015 at 7:30 AM - Bill Monroe: it's perfect
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:30 AM - Matheo Stravlas: decompilation error
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:30 AM - Matheo Stravlas: error in the code
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:30 AM - Bill Monroe: 70 degreess, no clouds
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:31 AM - jbigler1986: just use your old firmware and change the z steps
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:32 AM - Mike Glass: My nieghbor just moved back to SD this week. going to miss her. She packed left the house for sale, after she kicked the husband out.d
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:32 AM - jbigler1986: MG it's 800 for the leadscrews right?
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:32 AM - Bill Monroe: wow
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:32 AM - Bill Monroe: san diego where she from?
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:32 AM - Mike Glass: yes jb
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:32 AM - NFOsec: Glass.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:32 AM - Mike Glass: she is originally from SD
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:32 AM - jbigler1986: So why doesn't the husband stay there
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:32 AM - Matheo Stravlas: I dont have aan old firmware , I use the new robor1 plus
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:33 AM - Mike Glass: they are not married anymore
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:33 AM - jbigler1986: ah
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:33 AM - NFOsec: Matheo: You don't need to update firmware if you have the new Robo R1++
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:33 AM - Bill Monroe: I'd stay there.. san diego aint what it used to be
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:33 AM - Bill Monroe: unless you're asian
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:33 AM - Mike Glass: NFO, you have to flash it cause remember about the qc?
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:34 AM - Mike Glass: she is asian..lol
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:34 AM - Bill Monroe: well, there ya go
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:34 AM - NFOsec: MG: Not according to Jerry.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:34 AM - Mike Glass: sweet sweet lady
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:34 AM - Matheo Stravlas: I have the new one
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:34 AM - Bill Monroe: Mangandang Umaga!
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:34 AM - Mike Glass: I would still flash it
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:34 AM - NFOsec: not when I got this, he did not tell me to do so, in fact, he clearly stated in his email.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:34 AM - jbigler1986: MG so dumb rookie mistake on the cnc
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:35 AM - Mike Glass: oh oh, what happend
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:35 AM - jbigler1986: Forgot to invert the axis' that needed inverted in the firmware
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:35 AM - Mike Glass: NFO, I would advice to flash, remember the fan?
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:35 AM - NFOsec: Good God. So now I have have an embedded OS without a heat sink fan running on a system that doesn't print right now?
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:35 AM - jbigler1986: Instead I just checked to invert them on the software for manual moves. Whoops
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:35 AM - NFOsec: MG: yeah, the one I don't have right now?
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:36 AM - Matheo Stravlas: ..
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:36 AM - Mike Glass: well you have parts of it..lol
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:36 AM - NFOsec: in fact, it's funny, way back when I first joined, MK asked me if I could show a picture of the fans, that was captured back then.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:36 AM - NFOsec: no luck on sourcing either.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:36 AM - NFOsec: not too cool.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:37 AM - Mike Kelly: mornin
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:37 AM - jbigler1986: run away
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:37 AM - Matheo Stravlas: Mike !
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:37 AM - Matheo Stravlas: hello
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:37 AM - Matheo Stravlas: I need help
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:37 AM - NFOsec: Oh Lord, there goes the neighborhood.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:37 AM - Mike Kelly: ok then
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:37 AM - NFOsec: Matheo: so does half of the eastern seaboard.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:37 AM - jbigler1986: boom. That fast MK gets summoned
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:37 AM - Mike Kelly: my ears were burning
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:38 AM - Mike Glass: lol
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:38 AM - jbigler1986: he is having issues compiling firmware
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:38 AM - jbigler1986: I am to lazy to dive into the cause right now
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:38 AM - Mike Kelly: uh hmm
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:41 AM - jbigler1986: by the way. my cnc is loud after getting the power it needed
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:41 AM - Mike Kelly: haha
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:42 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah they're not quiet
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:43 AM - Mike Glass: is the dewalt loud MK?
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:43 AM - jbigler1986: spent close 2 hours troubleshooting the x axis. I missed a pin when connecting it on the shield. Noob mistake number 2 I made yesterday
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:43 AM - Mike Kelly: not like obnoxiously but it makes some noise
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:46 AM - Mike Glass: I really need to get my dust boot finished.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:47 AM - jbigler1986: yeah I will need to work on that this weekend
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:47 AM - Mike Kelly: i'm hoping tonight i'll make my first cut
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:47 AM - Mike Kelly: makes me nervous
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:48 AM - jbigler1986: just air test a file or use foam
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:48 AM - Mike Kelly: hmm i wonder if i have any foam lying aroun
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:51 AM - Mike Kelly: i think i need to increase the length of my Z axis
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:51 AM - Mike Kelly: i'm only able to plunge ~1/4" into my board with my wire chain setup
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:51 AM - jbigler1986: I need a new router for mine. mine when all the down is like 2 inches from the bed
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:52 AM - jbigler1986: only plus is that it won't crash into the bed
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:52 AM - NFOsec: not a new router, maybe a different mount?
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:52 AM - Mike Kelly: heh
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:52 AM - NFOsec: I have 4 different back plates
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:53 AM - jbigler1986: or just have a think base board or a few sheets
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:53 AM - jbigler1986: thick*
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:53 AM - NFOsec: I can swap between a spindle, my hAchooti, a dremel, or even a RotoZip (why who knows).
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:53 AM - Mike Glass: yea use at least a 3/4 sac board
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:53 AM - NFOsec: sacraficial boards and lambs are an important part of the balanced diet.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:54 AM - Mike Glass: then you know it will be flat
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:54 AM - NFOsec: unless of course the sac board is warped.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:54 AM - NFOsec: lol
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:54 AM - Mike Glass: now I can cut out that drag knife on the laser.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:54 AM - jbigler1986: so dipping it in a pool wouldnt be a good idea first?
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:55 AM - Mike Glass: I also had the idea to put the drag knife on the laser?
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:56 AM - NFOsec: MG: it works, but you should bracket it as an offset knife not directly in same path.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:56 AM - NFOsec: like off set on your CNC and not the laser.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:56 AM - NFOsec: lol.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:56 AM - Mike Glass: what not laser and cut at the same time..lol
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:56 AM - NFOsec: could be done. I use the drag on the CNC, but haven't thought about the laser.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:57 AM - Mike Glass: right now my cnc bed is crap, Im going to redesign it.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:58 AM - Mike Glass: think the smaller one I will make a concrete bed for doing metal.
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:59 AM - jbigler1986: glad i don't have to worry about the bed on mine
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:59 AM - jbigler1986: that would have been a headache
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:59 AM - Mike Glass: yea that is sweet jb
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:59 AM - Mike Glass: how fast does it move on the axis's
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:00 AM - jbigler1986: i have it at 300mm/s
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:00 AM - Mike Glass:
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:00 AM - jbigler1986: not crazy fast but pretty good speed
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:01 AM - jbigler1986: well it's ballscrews
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:01 AM - jbigler1986: err. not 300mm/s

 

Oct 9, 2015 at 8:01 AM - Mike Glass: I hope you dont intend on cutting at that speed.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:02 AM - jbigler1986: i run it at like 30mm/s
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:02 AM - jbigler1986: on the air tests
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:03 AM - jbigler1986: need to start changing the stuff to inches
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:03 AM - Mike Glass: ok, much better, I would bring it down to 15 when actually cutting
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:03 AM - Mike Glass: wood that is
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:04 AM - jbigler1986: i plan on only cutting titanium
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:04 AM - Mike Glass: then .001
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:04 AM - Mike Kelly: ok toy
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:04 AM - Mike Glass: haha
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:04 AM - jbigler1986: cutting diamonds as well
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:06 AM - jbigler1986: for real though with no power to the motors it takes me a ton of force to move an axis
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:07 AM - daniel871: Have you posted any pics of your setup JB?
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:07 AM - jbigler1986: i am going to start chicken pecking the keyboard
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:07 AM - jbigler1986: no. it's kind of a mess right now. I will once I actually clean up the electronics
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:10 AM - Mike Kelly: oh great our shop supervisor resigned
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:10 AM - daniel871: "Fuck this shit I'm outta here"
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:10 AM - daniel871: Haha
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:11 AM - jbigler1986: need to cut out a case
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:11 AM - daniel871: "Going to go work at MarkForged"
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:11 AM - jbigler1986: lol
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:12 AM - Mike Kelly: lol
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:12 AM - Mike Kelly: he was like the lowest paid and hardest working guy
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:12 AM - Mike Kelly: really sucks how they treated him
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:12 AM - jbigler1986: the psu i got stays so cool. The fan hasn't even kicked on yet
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:12 AM - daniel871: Usually how that kind of thing works out.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:12 AM - jbigler1986: that is shitty MK
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:12 AM - jbigler1986: they will regret it
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:13 AM - jbigler1986: The company that is
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:13 AM - Mike Kelly: YUP
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:13 AM - Mike Kelly: my president doesn't know how to not micro manage and it drew him crazy
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:14 AM - daniel871: I hate micromanagers.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:14 AM - Mike Kelly: they should have trusted him enough on purchasing necessary components to not second guess him all the time
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:14 AM - Mike Kelly: but they'd rather piss money away on dead weight employees doing boondoggle experiments than invest in our hard workers
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:16 AM - daniel871: Also, I hate when I get a reference drawing to work from and the source drawing has a million overlapping line segments in it.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:16 AM - jbigler1986: yeah. that's what is nice about my company. We have our tasks and just get them done. Meeting every monday to see how things are going but that's about it
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:16 AM - daniel871: The one good thing about where I work is they figured out I actually get more work done if they just give me the work and leave me alone to do it.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:16 AM - Mike Kelly: i have one electrical schematic riddled with overlapping lines, but i inherited it and can't be assed to fix it
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:17 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah i'm not really micro managed which is nic
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:17 AM - Mike Kelly: i couldn't handle that
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:17 AM - daniel871: The current order has 23 line items with a drawing for each one that is like this.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:17 AM - daniel871: Normally wouldn't bother but they need to be cleaned up for importing into our CAM software.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:19 AM - Mike Kelly: oh for a cnc that's a big no no
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:19 AM - danzca6: "Futurecraft 3D: Adidas Says It Will Turn to 3D Printed Shoes in Near Future" man...that is going to put a lot of kids in 3rd world countries out of a job
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:20 AM - daniel871: Not once they realize how long it will take to print one shoe.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:21 AM - danzca6: lol...true
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:22 AM - jbigler1986: i'm sure they will use fast machines
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:22 AM - NFOsec: actually I don't think Adidas or any other company is going to invest in 3D printing for shoes, but rather SLA or related technology (which technically can be deemed 3D printing) but not FDM based.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:22 AM - jbigler1986: yeah it won't be FDM
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:23 AM - NFOsec: they could for example do inserts and custom sole formations in 3D, but not the rest.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:23 AM - NFOsec: otherwise, maybe using an 8mm (not .8) hot end and just pump out tsnami blobs, put straps on, and call it a shoe.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:24 AM - NFOsec: so, WHO can tell me where the heck I can find a 25x25mm .16a 12v fan for this effer?
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:25 AM - daniel871: Amazon.com?
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:25 AM - jbigler1986: ^
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:25 AM - daniel871: Hang on.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:26 AM - NFOsec: not good enough. generalization is for the weak.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:26 AM - jbigler1986: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MYNWUP4?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:26 AM - jbigler1986: only .08 amps
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:26 AM - jbigler1986: they work great though
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:27 AM - jbigler1986: using them on my dual setup. should be using 30mm ones but whatevs
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:28 AM - Mike Kelly: that one seems fine
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:28 AM - daniel871: Found another one with similar specs to the one JB linked but it wasn't Prime.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:29 AM - danzca6: you could upgrade to a 30mm NFO and print out a new fan block. I think Waldo modified one on Thingiverse to hold the 30mm
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:29 AM - Mike Kelly: i wish people wouldn't send me specific troubleshooting questions over PM
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:29 AM - daniel871: Would you rather they sent generalized questions?
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:29 AM - jbigler1986: hold on MK. I need to send you a few
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:30 AM - Mike Kelly: i wish they'd post threads so my answers would be available to everyone
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:30 AM - danzca6: sorry MK...you are probably referring to me ;(
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:30 AM - jbigler1986: they want to feel special
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:30 AM - Mike Kelly: lol no not you dan
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:30 AM - Mike Kelly: someone just send me one
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:31 AM - daniel871: You should make a "Ask MK your Robo troubleshooting questions" megathread and put a link to it in your profile.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:31 AM - NFOsec: danz: can't print without the fan -- or at least I don't want to take that chance.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:32 AM - daniel871: You can get the 30mm shroud on Filastruder, pretty sure.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:32 AM - daniel871: Fan too.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:32 AM - daniel871: Well, maybe not for the hexagon.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:33 AM - NFOsec: thanks jb. they finally had next day option open on it for prime, ordered.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:34 AM - NFOsec: I know, I'm going to embark upgrading the system when I have time, I just don't have time this next two weeks.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:34 AM - NFOsec: I think I'll put in liquid nitrogen cooling system and make brittle bone prints.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:35 AM - daniel871: They do have a water-cooling modification out there.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:35 AM - jbigler1986: yw NFO. I ordered 2 of those exact ones a few weeks ago. No issues
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:35 AM - NFOsec: mm... current fan has .16a, this one is .08
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:36 AM - NFOsec: not being an electrical guy, what's the difference?
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:37 AM - Mike Kelly: coil resistance?
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:37 AM - Mike Kelly: .16 has higher wattage so it could theoretically put out more airflow
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:37 AM - Mike Kelly: but i think 2.8cfm should be enough
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:37 AM - jbigler1986: "Kaepernick" He only has six completions on passes of at least five yards downfield
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:37 AM - jbigler1986: wow
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:38 AM - Mike Kelly: sorry 49ers
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:38 AM - NFOsec: Kaeperdick isn't really as hot has he thought he was now.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:38 AM - jbigler1986: nope. We need a pocket passer and not this dual threat crap
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:38 AM - NFOsec: his eyes are too close to each other, he has too many tattoos without a story, and since his runs have been stopped he's broken down because he doesn't know how to compensate without a backup plan when passing fails.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:39 AM - NFOsec: jb: I agree there.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:39 AM - NFOsec: Vick was the same way when he played, he went to the dogs -- seems like Kaepernick may do the same if he doesn't go back to his roots.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:39 AM - jbigler1986: takes 10 yard sacks trying to dance around and find space vs throwing the ball away. drives me crazy
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:39 AM - Mike Kelly: bad pun
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:39 AM - NFOsec: I really admire him as a QB, but right now he'd play JV in a locl HS and still fail.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:39 AM - NFOsec: MK: pun intended, but thanks.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:40 AM - NFOsec: My fav days were with Montana and Rice.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:40 AM - NFOsec: Favre/Driver/Sharpe

 

Oct 9, 2015 at 8:40 AM - NFOsec: T.O. and himself.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:40 AM - jbigler1986: I was a huge steve young fan. That's when I became a fan
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:41 AM - jbigler1986: T.O. is well. TO
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:41 AM - Mike Kelly: my sister posted a picture of her 5 mo old baby "playing" with Lego
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:41 AM - Mike Kelly: not duplo, lego
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:41 AM - Mike Kelly: i think she's lost her mind
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:41 AM - jbigler1986: He could have been good too
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:41 AM - NFOsec: yeah, we had a dallas QB in the day come to our H.S. (school for the deaf) and did some personal autographs for the star players.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:42 AM - jbigler1986: that's way to small for a 5 month old
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:42 AM - NFOsec: MK: LOL.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:42 AM - Mike Kelly: right?
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:42 AM - Mike Kelly: she's insane
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:42 AM - NFOsec: unless they're Lego BIG BLOCKS which would be hard to swallow.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:42 AM - NFOsec: Maybe she's shooting for Ghetto Mom of the Year?
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:43 AM - jbigler1986: well she has a lot bigger competion
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:43 AM - Mike Kelly: true
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:43 AM - Mike Kelly: unless she goes anti-vax she's doing alrigh
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:44 AM - Mike Kelly: you should have seen the big pile of crazy Montravont's sister was putting out on facebook
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:44 AM - Mike Kelly: luckily she has no kids but still
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:46 AM - jbigler1986: i might as well go home. I am getting nothing done
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:46 AM - Mike Kelly: https://i.imgur.com/lQxQmzn.jpg this is awesome
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:48 AM - NFOsec: mmm... seen something like that back in the day in college oceanography.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:49 AM - daniel871: Certain people are making it way too easy for the Daily Show to get awesome material for jokes.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:50 AM - daniel871: A certain someone said in an interview that the Holocaust wouldn't have happened if the Jews had had guns.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:51 AM - daniel871: Where is that facepalm GIF when I need it.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:52 AM - NFOsec: http://photobucket.com/images/facepalm gif
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:52 AM - NFOsec: good collection to choose from.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:53 AM - daniel871: Photobucket is still around?
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:54 AM - NFOsec: oh yeah.
Oct 9, 2015 at 8:56 AM - daniel871: http://i.imgur.com/F4xsV2g.gif
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:00 AM - daniel871:
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:01 AM - NFOsec: daniel: I remember watching those prank shows.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:01 AM - Mike Kelly: like that mother in arizona, if she had a gun her son wouldn't have shot her, wait...
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:01 AM - NFOsec: the elevator one is definitely the most scary, but the ones sitting on the toilet or in a changing room going down a ski hill were too.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:01 AM - NFOsec: well, getting shot isn't funny.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:02 AM - toymaker: how thick of a piece of glass would u guys estimate i need for 10 x 15" boro glass, 3/16 , 1/4?
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:02 AM - Mike Kelly: 4mm is good
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:03 AM - daniel871: 1CM.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:03 AM - daniel871: What happened to making it out of titanium?
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:04 AM - Mike Kelly: daniel have you watched the jim jeffries clip?
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:05 AM - NFOsec: so, is the fan for the heat sink a draw to cool or blow to cool function. I assume the latter.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:06 AM - Mike Kelly: blow
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:06 AM - NFOsec: figured. so, since day one that fan was on reverse. talk about QC right MG?
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:07 AM - Mike Kelly: hmm
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:07 AM - daniel871: What clip?
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:08 AM - NFOsec: geez, so northern Arizona U getting a shootuot today as well...
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:08 AM - Mike Kelly: hence the conversation
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:08 AM - jbigler1986: Cardinals are going to break so many Cubs fans heart within the next week
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:08 AM - NFOsec: I see. wasn't watching much earlier.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:09 AM - jbigler1986: wait what. Another college shooting?
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:09 AM - NFOsec: so, the news release the names of the gang members that can be retaliated....
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:09 AM - Mike Kelly: warning, the clip here contains controversial opinions, do not watch if you wish to argue it:
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:09 AM - NFOsec: in other words, MK is presenting daily news.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:10 AM - daniel871: I've kind of zoned out on college shootings because they happen so regularly.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:10 AM - NFOsec: what he said. http://photobucket.com/images/facepalm gif
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:10 AM - Mike Kelly: we've become numb to them
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:10 AM - NFOsec: ugh.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:10 AM - toymaker: the cost of lapping / surface grinding titanium is alot
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:10 AM - NFOsec: https://www.youtube.com/redirect?q=...th-peiqozrk_Vgr98MTQ0NDQ5MzY4OUAxNDQ0NDA3Mjg5
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:10 AM - Mike Kelly: "when we decided even the murder of children wasn't enough to change our policy, then we've lost"
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:11 AM - jbigler1986: i cannot even image how i would feel if someone killed or even injured my kids
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:12 AM - NFOsec: no doubt.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:14 AM - daniel871: That's actually pretty good, MK.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:14 AM - NFOsec: one of our life-long family friends had a sister who had 3 boys. all 3 died tragically within 5 years of each other. 1 by boating accident, fell into lake and propellor shred up head, another fell off a pier and couldn't get out (breakwater type), and the last was confronted by a road-rage driver with a bumper tap accident when he got out, took a 12 gaugae and shot him in the face less than a foot away.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:14 AM - NFOsec: losing one is horrible, but all 3 -- how do you live with yourself.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:14 AM - Mike Kelly: the fuck
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:14 AM - NFOsec: the husband committed suicide because he coudln't stand it.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:15 AM - daniel871: Same way Keanu Reeves copes I guess.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:15 AM - NFOsec: Keanu Reeves copes with drugs. I guess, point taken.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:16 AM - jbigler1986: that is horrible
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:17 AM - daniel871: Like this better.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:18 AM - toymaker: i hate to say it but a few deaths is pale in comparison to the 50 millions killed by their own government after being diarmed
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:19 AM - Mike Glass: lol I love carlin.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:19 AM - daniel871: That's nice and all, except for the instances where the government uses superior firepower and training to overpower you anyway.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:19 AM - Mike Kelly: remember what i said about not arguing this?
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:20 AM - Mike Glass: This is a laser and cnc chat, no politics please..lol
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:20 AM - Mike Kelly: ^
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:21 AM - daniel871: Here is an even better one by Carlin.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:21 AM - NFOsec: The Indians asked me to visit them today.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:21 AM - jbigler1986: no 3d printer talk anymore either
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:21 AM - NFOsec: lets talk about quality control.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:21 AM - daniel871: How? It doesn't exist.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:21 AM - Mike Glass: lol, lets not go there NFO
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:22 AM - toymaker: how aout 3d printed guns?
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:22 AM - Mike Glass: bad
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:22 AM - daniel871: Hey yeah let's talk about fairy tales.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:22 AM - Mike Kelly: compared to what QC was it's leaps and bounds better than
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:22 AM - toymaker: or is that taboo?
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:22 AM - NFOsec: true, but back in the day, EVERYTHING was about quality control, now it's all MTBF
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:22 AM - NFOsec: (mean time between failure)
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:23 AM - daniel871: 200 hours for Makerbot extruders on that subject, NFO.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:23 AM - Mike Kelly: back in the day everything wasn't about QC, it was just over engineered because they had no cad to simulate properly
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:23 AM - toymaker: https://ghostgunner.net/
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:24 AM - daniel871: Hey yeah, let me spend more money buying a printer that can print a gun than I'd spend just buying the gun outright (without breaking automatic firearm laws).
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:24 AM - toymaker: is not a printer
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:24 AM - daniel871: Bought an M1 Garand for less than I paid for the Robo.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:24 AM - toymaker: cnc mill
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:25 AM - NFOsec: you can of course print any gun you wish with a 3DP, but for the most part, it will be a single-use.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:26 AM - Mike Kelly: cheaper just to buy a couple tubes
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:26 AM - toymaker: but its a cnc mill designed for 1 sole purpose of completing 80% lower into a complete functioning lower.... and at the same time bypassing any registery/ tracing ( hence ghost gun)

 

Oct 9, 2015 at 9:27 AM - Mike Glass: yea we all know the cody story
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:28 AM - daniel871: Honeypot product to bust a bunch of people for trying to bypass federal and state laws regarding firearms when they ignore the bit about selling the gun or they try to make an automatic. :tinfoil:
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:28 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah the NSA knows who bought those
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:29 AM - toymaker: perfectly legal
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:29 AM - NFOsec: just for a lower register doesn't do it for me.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:29 AM - NFOsec: sell another for the upper and you're on.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:29 AM - daniel871: Also I like how the final price isn't shown anywhere and it's a $250 "deposit" to get on the waiting list.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:29 AM - Mattchu: morning all!
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:30 AM - NFOsec: Mattchu - bless you.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:30 AM - Mike Glass: lol
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:30 AM - Mike Glass: Hey Matt
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:30 AM - Mattchu: morning NFO, morning MG.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:30 AM - Mattchu: still debating on the smaller 40W or the same size you two have.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:30 AM - Mike Glass: same thing pop in my head when I see him.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:30 AM - daniel871: It's like the kickstarter scams where they rake in a bunch of money and then post a pithy "Sorry folks, we ran into some manufacturing problems and can't deliver and our outsourced manufacturing took up all the money, we swear!" *disappears into the ether*
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:31 AM - Mike Glass: there is no debate, go semi-big or go home..lol
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:31 AM - NFOsec: Matt: you know, with the 40w you can cut 1/8" acrylic easy, 1/4 would require 2 passes minimum. there is a BIG cost difference between < $500 and < $1600
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:31 AM - Mike Glass: the 40 you can get for $366 though
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:31 AM - Mattchu: yes it is a HUGE price difference.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:32 AM - Mattchu: yeah the 40W I can get for a song.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:32 AM - NFOsec: from a perspective of purchase, use, sell and upgrade, you'll easily find a victim or two to buy yours for a few hundred bucks if you choose that route later.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:32 AM - NFOsec: yeah, I've been thinking about picking up a 40w just for doing dog-tags and template jig work and use the big for more fun projects.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:32 AM - NFOsec: just don't know if I want to have it known I have 2 "lasers" herre.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:32 AM - Mattchu: you want 3
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:33 AM - NFOsec: I do, but 100w, 50-60w, then maybe JAG?
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:33 AM - NFOsec: MG: did you ever research what was necessary to bump to 60w?
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:33 AM - Mattchu: speaking of lasers...got my enclosure back from the laser cutter.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:33 AM - NFOsec: not just tube? need another board/psu for "laser"?
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:34 AM - Mike Glass: other then a new tube, not sure if you need a bigger psu or not
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:34 AM - NFOsec: I wanted to have a 1950's streamline version for the Robo, not this Volvo - boxy but good approach from MK.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:34 AM - Mike Glass: think it has enough juice
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:34 AM - NFOsec: I would agree, but just not aware.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:34 AM - Mattchu: that reminds me...MK, wife find the booze? tell me she did!
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:34 AM - Mattchu: so I can send beer money!
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:34 AM - NFOsec: I think come January I'm going to order tube(s) to prepare for Armageddon.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:35 AM - Mattchu: 40W can cut leather just as well as 50W
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:35 AM - Mike Kelly: my enclosure NFO?
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:35 AM - Mattchu: and both can cut carbon fiber equally well
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:35 AM - Mattchu: (ie...they can't )
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:35 AM - NFOsec: no comment.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:35 AM - Mike Kelly: she hasn't checked matt, i'll run by the other liquor store that's supposed to have it and i'll let you know tonight
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:35 AM - jbigler1986: i can cut carbon fiber
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:36 AM - NFOsec: I can too, with scissors.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:36 AM - jbigler1986: i can cut it with my eyes
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:37 AM - jbigler1986: but for real. When I get my normal spindle running it can cut carbon fiber
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:38 AM - jbigler1986: how about glass? lets try that
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:38 AM - jbigler1986: sounds like a nice trip to the ER
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:39 AM - daniel871: Get a diamond mill and a way to keep it lubricated and you can.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:40 AM - toymaker: i hope your taking necessary safety measures before cutting carbon fiber
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:41 AM - Mattchu: the words "enclosure" and "Lexan" should be flying through your head right now JB.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:41 AM - daniel871: PCD mill would be the actual search term.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:41 AM - Mattchu: and safety glasses.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:41 AM - Mike Glass: body condom
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:41 AM - daniel871: Also "Lubricant"
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:41 AM - jbigler1986: i'm not cutting it. no use for it
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:41 AM - jbigler1986:
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:42 AM - Mattchu: anything not wood and most plastic requires oil/coolant, daniel...chromemoly being the possible moderate exception to that rule (but only just barely).
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:43 AM - daniel871: I like the title that comes up on the tab when opening this. http://i.imgur.com/73tVcAG.gif
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:44 AM - daniel871: "Nap Time Mother Fucker" if it doesn't work on your browser for whatever reason.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:44 AM - jbigler1986: carbon fiber does look awesome though
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:44 AM - toymaker: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=90769120 comparing carbon fiber particles to asbestos... pretty scary
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:45 AM - jbigler1986: seems healthy
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:45 AM - daniel871:
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:45 AM - Mike Glass: mix it in tea
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:46 AM - Mike Glass: the black widow looks like
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:46 AM - toymaker: only in sf
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:47 AM - daniel871: A *lazy* black widow.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:47 AM - daniel871: Only if you're already dying anyway.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:49 AM - daniel871: Someone is trolling the hell out of people on FB right now.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:49 AM - daniel871:
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:49 AM - toymaker: lol i went to fire up the robo after not using for 2 days and some spider build a full on web inside the closure
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:50 AM - daniel871: I'm sad they didn't go the extra mile and create a website for that domain somewhere.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:51 AM - NFOsec: dan: fake as can be.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:51 AM - daniel871: Maybe with a redirect to this page: http://www.thepaincomics.com/weekly130208.htm
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:55 AM - toymaker: do people not understand the purpose of the 2nd amendment ?
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:57 AM - Mike Kelly: hey mg or nfo, would you be willing to cut this: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:993759/#files
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:57 AM - daniel871: When you are a member of a well-regulated militia, you can have any guns you want.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:57 AM - Mike Kelly: hey guys, let's drop it
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:57 AM - Mike Kelly: people are very opinionated about it, no point in arguing
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:57 AM - daniel871: It's a simple grammar question.
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:58 AM - jbigler1986: what would you use that for MK
Oct 9, 2015 at 9:59 AM - Mike Kelly: i just want experience with robots
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:00 AM - jbigler1986: cut it with your cnc
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:01 AM - Mike Kelly: too many 90 degree corners
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:01 AM - jbigler1986: get a 1/32 bit
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:01 AM - Mike Kelly: lol
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:02 AM - jbigler1986: jk
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:02 AM - jbigler1986: that would probably snap cutting that
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:02 AM - Mike Kelly: unless i went really really slow
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:03 AM - Mike Kelly: i do want a 1/32 eventually if i start making pcb
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:03 AM - jbigler1986: true. man this cnc shield has pins for 6 endstops
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:03 AM - Mike Kelly: like the ramps
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:04 AM - jbigler1986: oh yeah
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:04 AM - jbigler1986: thought about adding endstops
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:04 AM - jbigler1986: would make homing simple
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:04 AM - Mike Kelly: yeah i'm thinking about it too, just need a good way of securing them
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:05 AM - jbigler1986: agreed
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:07 AM - Mattchu: fixtures MK.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:08 AM - Mike Kelly: ?
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:08 AM - Mattchu: for holding down PCB?

 

Oct 9, 2015 at 10:08 AM - Mattchu: you make a fixture to locate the boards on.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:08 AM - Mike Kelly: switches
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:08 AM - Mike Kelly: for endstops
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:08 AM - Mattchu: for the router?
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:09 AM - jbigler1986: yeah
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:09 AM - Mattchu: does your CNC support G54/G55 similar commands?
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:09 AM - Mattchu: then you wouldn't need to home it, ever.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:09 AM - Mattchu: you'd just have to remember which program you're using.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:10 AM - Mike Kelly: marlin does not
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:10 AM - Mike Kelly: but i can force home with G92
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:12 AM - Mattchu: which resets you back to your origin in x and y (hopefully not Z...)
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:12 AM - jbigler1986: explain that Matt
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:12 AM - Mattchu: which part JB?
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:12 AM - jbigler1986: grbl supports those commands
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:12 AM - jbigler1986: which is what i'm using
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:14 AM - Mattchu: G54 is the "standard" command for calling out a new origin. It it used in conjunction with another command (which varies from machine to machine)
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:14 AM - Mattchu: basically it allows you to create multiple origins
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:14 AM - Mattchu: it's great if you've got like 3 or 4 vises on a CNC mill
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:14 AM - NFOsec: cutting that would be a cinch, don't have neon acrylic though.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:14 AM - Mike Kelly: doesn't have to be neon, any acrylic would be fine
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:14 AM - Mike Kelly: i just don't have access to a laser cutter
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:15 AM - Mattchu: so you don't have ot keep setting your origin. you set it once, and then call it up when you want to run the program associated with that origin.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:15 AM - Mike Kelly: but doesn't that presume you don't move anything
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:15 AM - Mattchu: so G54 = origin one g55 = origin two , etc.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:16 AM - Mattchu: so you could in theory find out where the origin is by slowly running out the travel
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:16 AM - Mattchu: and call up the commands to designate that as like, G57
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:17 AM - Mattchu: and then when you want to home it, you'call up G57, then on the next line call up G92, and it'll home.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:17 AM - Mattchu: or G0 X0,Y0 (which is what I'd do)
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:18 AM - Mattchu: since theorhetically even calling up the G92 would override the G57
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:18 AM - Mattchu: I'd wanna be in the room with my hand on the Estop button when you do that
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:19 AM - jbigler1986: oh yeah mine has been on the power switch a lot
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:19 AM - Mike Kelly: anyone happen to know of a good table for filament settnigs
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:20 AM - NFOsec: So, just finished cutting out the pieces.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:20 AM - Mattchu: lulzbot has one on their site
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:20 AM - Mattchu: I think
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:20 AM - Mattchu: what'd you cut out NFO>
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:20 AM - Mattchu: ?
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:20 AM - NFOsec: 1/8th Acrylic
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:20 AM - NFOsec: may be boring, but did it in black.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:20 AM - NFOsec: only had black and clear.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:21 AM - NFOsec: Mr. Kelly's boring NASA takes over the world crane-robot.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:21 AM - Mike Kelly: willing to mail me it
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:21 AM - NFOsec: basically you had to delete the text, resize the frame to 300x200, and done.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:22 AM - Mike Kelly: black sounds cool
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:22 AM - NFOsec: not a problem MK. send details in convo.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:22 AM - NFOsec: black isn't bad.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:22 AM - NFOsec: I could do it in clear and you LED it.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:22 AM - Mike Kelly: always amazes me how fast laser cutters works
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:22 AM - NFOsec: takes about 15 minutes.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:23 AM - Mike Kelly: blacks good for me
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:23 AM - Mike Kelly: i'm not particular
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:23 AM - NFOsec: ok.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:23 AM - Mattchu: As henry ford said: they could have it in any color they want, so long as it's black.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:24 AM - jbigler1986: 0 for Z should be all the way up correct?
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:24 AM - Mattchu: no
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:24 AM - Mattchu: yes
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:24 AM - Mattchu: that's a school of thought right there
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:25 AM - Mattchu: I say Z zero should be the top of your bed.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:25 AM - Mattchu: if not .02" above it
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:25 AM - bamhm182: Black's an alright color to be made to have
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:25 AM - Mattchu: so you never accidentally touch your bed...so long as you remember never go below Z0
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:26 AM - jbigler1986: ok i'm confused. So X0 Y0 Z0. It will be in the back right but where should Z be then? A little above bed/base board?
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:27 AM - Mattchu: yes
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:27 AM - Mattchu: that way you're never guessing where Z will end up at
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:27 AM - jbigler1986: ok. yeah that part was screwing me up too
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:27 AM - Mattchu: if you know that Z0 is the bottom of your part
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:27 AM - Mattchu: you always know where you're going too.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:28 AM - jbigler1986: complete learning experience for me
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:28 AM - Mattchu: no worries
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:28 AM - Mattchu: I learned Z zero top of part when I first learned CNC on a mill
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:28 AM - Mattchu: on a Router though...that's going to be different. wait til you learn to program around clamps =-D
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:28 AM - jbigler1986: SO move machine to back right, move Z just above bed then set it as 0?
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:29 AM - Mattchu: your origin in theory should be the bottom left corner of the machine.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:29 AM - Mattchu: then you know you're in quadrant I, and programming and checking will be easy
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:30 AM - Mattchu: I'd find out which way the machine moves when you tell it to go positive in X
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:30 AM - Mattchu: nd positive in Y
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:31 AM - Mattchu: positive x should move to the right...if that's the case, then X origin is far left
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:31 AM - Mattchu: Y axis should be the same, whatever positive direction it moves, the origin for it is in the opposite.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:31 AM - jbigler1986: positive x is right, positive y is up and positive z is up
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:31 AM - Mattchu: yes
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:32 AM - jbigler1986: with the router facing me that is
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:32 AM - Mattchu: yes
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:32 AM - Mattchu: in theory
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:32 AM - jbigler1986: ok so then back right will be z
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:32 AM - Mattchu: if it's wired differently well,
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:32 AM - jbigler1986: zero
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:32 AM - jbigler1986: well can always invert an axis
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:33 AM - Mattchu: you can.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:33 AM - jbigler1986: if needed
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:33 AM - Mattchu: but right now, yes, that is your origin
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:34 AM - Mattchu: your biggy is making sure Z zero is the bed...set that with the spindle off and a tool in it. you'll have to set it each time you put a tool in.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:34 AM - Mattchu: honestly, I'd check it each time before running it, just to make sure.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:36 AM - jbigler1986: so then if it moves the max distance it should should be at the bottom left with z at the top
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:36 AM - Mattchu: if all your moves are positive, yes.
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:36 AM - Mike Kelly: [NSFW] IamA boat propellor accident survivor AMA!
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:37 AM - Mike Kelly: OH GOD WHY DID I CLICK IT
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:37 AM - jbigler1986: lol
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:37 AM - Mike Kelly: really need to use "NMS" tag
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:39 AM - NFOsec: want a picture MK?
Oct 9, 2015 at 10:40 AM - jbigler1986: master p once said
