00:02 rue_more pff

00:03 Tom_itx i think i'll mount the driver just below those
00:03 Tom_itx which?

00:04 Tom_itx had to cut some alum strips and thread em
00:04 rue_more which is the isolator?
00:04 Tom_itx left
00:04 Tom_itx the other 2 clips are fuse blocks
00:05 Tom_itx one's there just so i don't lose it
00:05 rue_more 25mA?
00:05 Tom_itx 1A on the isolation board
00:05 katsmeow-afk the one on the right says "optoisolator" on it
00:05 e_more squints and checks both ri
00:05 Tom_itx yeah that goes to the control boards on the far right
00:05 Tom_itx out of frame
00:06 rue_more oh there it is
00:07 Tom_itx i could swap one of my mesa boards then i wouldn't need the right board at all
00:07 Tom_itx mine doesn't have any adc on it and the S model has spindle out
00:07 rue_more today I got my order of asorted colour headers
00:07 Tom_itx err DAC

00:17 katsmeow-afk "ex machina" won't be out till April at the earliest
01:48 katsmeow there is a band called "Boards of Canada"

09:01 Tom_itx 41�F Clear
18:35 katsmeow-afk i got two identical kiddie 2-wheel scooters, took them apart for the wheels, sprockets, motors, chain,, and as i put them all in a box, i note one drive wheel is flatted where it looks like the kid skidded all the way down a mountain on concrete
18:36 katsmeow-afk so i have 3 good wheels and one that goes thump....thump...thump , i must either fix it or call the robot Thumper
18:38 katsmeow-afk i dunno how to fix it, it's rubber of some sort
18:39 katsmeow-afk turn it down to the min radius to eleiminate the flat, and then turn all the otehr wheels down to match?
20:42 rue_more lose it and make a trike
21:09 katsmeow-afk it's one of the drive wheels
21:09 katsmeow-afk the trike will have only one drive wheel if i lose it
21:10 katsmeow-afk no, i cannot change swap, the hubs are different, and the tire is molded onto
21:12 katsmeow-afk the sprocket won't fit my lil urethane wheels for non-motorised skateboards
21:33 Tom_itx ok scale isn't so bad with no PID.. with S150 i get ~100 with S5000 i get ~5500
22:34 rue_more oooo earthquake?
22:34 rue_more kat, was that an earthquake?
22:34 katsmeow-afk i didn't feel it
22:34 Tom_itx we've had quite a few small ones lately
22:37 rue_more kat, can you pull up one of those earquake map pagees?
