Back [06:45:15]<skunkworks>http://www.model-engineer.co.uk/forums/postings.asp?th=120519&p=6 [06:47:10]<archivist> hehe wernt me guv
[06:47:29]<skunkworks> I figured it wasn't you. I wonder who.
[06:48:20]<skunkworks> linux screens are not suitable for selling to third party users. darn
[06:48:44]<archivist> he does say things so very wrong
[06:50:12]<archivist> although I do understand how he fails to get of with things, "metal block"
[07:15:42]<skunkworks> he complains about throwing money at solutions that didn't work and he seems to still be doing it. (well - it may or may not work)
[07:15:59]<skunkworks> when there is a solution that does work. (but he doesn't like)
[07:18:24]<archivist> he is unwilling to learn
[07:18:45]<archivist> a bit like me and maths
[07:19:27]<skunkworks> heh
[07:19:29]<skunkworks>http://www.cnczone.com/forums/cnc-wood-router-project-log/286992-cnc-cad-9.html [07:52:47]<skunkworks> steve might be happy now?
[07:52:48]<skunkworks>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTacj_DCH6w&feature=youtu.be [07:53:27]<skunkworks> but does it have jwp?
[07:54:12]<skunkworks> hmm the picture at the end - sure looks like the peaks are different widths..
[08:04:50]<archivist> sounded a bit rough and did not seem to have a spring pass, and.....I see no nut to prove it fits
[08:07:20]<rob_h> if going to cut a thread that far out from a chuck let alown a collet, why not use a rollerbox ?
[08:16:48]<archivist> I should do a linuxcnc thread and put the result on the thread measuring machine
[08:40:12]<cradek> counting troughs from the left at that upper reflection, #8 and #9 sure look like completely different widths
[08:40:36]<cradek> might just be varying surface finish
[08:41:24]<cradek> 12/13 are also quite different
[09:12:25]<JT-Shop> skunkworks: where is your last build thread?
[09:45:21]<skunkworks> This? http://forum.linuxcnc.org/forum/38-general-linuxcnc-questions/30441-matsuura-mc-500v2-retrofit?limitstart=0 [10:05:50]<JT-Shop> yep, thanks
[10:43:44]<JT-Shop> can the 7i48 control 5 axes and a spindle?
[10:44:37]<pcw_home> Yes
[10:45:31]<JT-Shop> thanks
[10:50:03]<skunkworks> or 4 axis and 2 spindles ;)
[14:27:19]<KGB-wlo> push to master branch: http://linuxcnc.org/ [14:27:25]-linuxcnc-github:#linuxcnc-devel- [13wlo] 15jepler pushed 1 new commit to 06master: 02 https://github.com/LinuxCNC/wlo/commit/9c1ac52cdc0352782f1329a04c7420ea2bc0e8e4 [14:27:25]-linuxcnc-github:#linuxcnc-devel- 13wlo/06master 149c1ac52 15Jeff Epler: new showcase
[14:30:31]<cradek> jepler: thank you for continuing to do that, after we all ignore your request that someone else do it
[14:30:52]<jepler> cradek: that's how it goes
[14:30:57]<cradek> yeah
[15:02:33]<skunkworks_> Oh - I know that guy
[15:04:09]<skunkworks_> He sometimes smells funny - but overall - nice guy.
[15:12:33]<JT-Shop> can you have 2 7i33TA's and a 7i44 on a 5/6i24?
[15:15:14]<Tom_itx> 7i33 a breakout?
[15:15:30]<pcw_mesa> yes
[15:16:49]<pcw_mesa> you can have any combination of 50 pin breakouts on a 5I23/5I24/6I24/7I80HD/7I90/7I93
[15:16:59]<JT-Shop> 7i33TA is a 4 axis servo card
[15:17:04]<JT-Shop> thanks
[15:17:05]<Tom_itx> anybody want a digitizer pad?
[15:17:13]<Tom_itx> sumographics iirc
[15:19:23]<pcw_mesa> 5I20 can have almost any combination but does not support the resolver interface or larger configs (FPGA space limitations)
[15:28:19]<cradek> summagraphics
[15:31:24]<Tom_itx> yeah that
[15:31:34]<Tom_itx> it's pretty old
[22:32:35]<skunkworks> some assembly required.. http://electronicsam.com/images/matsuura/20160929_193623.jpg [22:34:03]<skunkworks> zlog
[22:41:53]<skunkworks> I did get the center section pressed back together with 90 deg phase. It was pretty easy using the matsuura and a probe.
[22:43:39]<skunkworks> within a few thousands of 90 anyways
[22:45:24]<kirk_wallace> Engine crankshaft?
[22:50:06]<skunkworks_> kirk_wallace: yes.. snowmobile engine being converted to Stirling as an experiment
[22:50:29]<kirk_wallace> Cool.
[22:52:02]<skunkworks_> Don't have to make a crank.. just press back together the orientation I want
[22:52:49]<mozmck1> I didn't know there were press-together cranks
[22:53:03]<skunkworks_> Only took a few years for the light bulb to go off.. I really didn't know most 2 cycle engine cranks are pressed together
[22:53:15]<mozmck1> Interesting!
[22:53:49]<skunkworks_> Go figure! :)
[22:56:24]<skunkworks_> It is pressing together easier than it came apart..
