06:11 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> morning
06:41 AM JT-Cave: most of the basil seeds have taken up moisture and swollen up a bit so that's looking good
07:36 AM rdtsc-w: This Kollmorgen drive repair is turning out to be a nightmare... multiple faults and way over time
07:51 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> Kollmorgen!
07:52 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> I think we have some stepper motors from them
07:55 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> stepper motor and drives..
07:56 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> it was part of a germen (i think) step and repeat machine for exposing film
07:57 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> 5 phase IIRC
08:04 AM lcnc-relay: <_guillaum_@> Hi, I'm new to LinuxCNC. Sometimes I'd like to do simple machining operations without having to generate a Fusion360 project. I just discovered NativeCam, which meets my needs. Are there any other tools? Because NativeCam is 8 years old and the installation procedure seems incompatible with LinuxCNC 2.9?
08:06 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> for really simple stuff - I will create gcode by hand.. It is pretty quick.
08:08 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> there is also
08:08 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> https://linuxcnc.org/docs/devel/html/gui/ngcgui.html
08:37 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> if John or Tom was here - they would tell you about flexgui
08:37 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> 🙂
08:44 AM lcnc-relay: <_guillaum_@> skunkworks8841@: That was my first idea: doing it by hand, then I started to create a python scripts then I discover ngcgui and then I discover NativeCam that seems most integrated and more simple. I prefer using tools than rewriting every time with potential error.
08:44 AM JT-Cave: but you already told him...
08:45 AM lcnc-relay: <_guillaum_@> skunkworks8841@: Thank you I will take a look, I didn't know this project
08:52 AM JT-Cave: here's the link https://gnipsel.com/linuxcnc/flexgui/index.html

09:47 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> Hmm - I think my asus router might stop working. Nothing in the logs - but rebooting fixes it.
09:47 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> seems to lose connection to the wan/
09:47 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> does it every couple weeks - rebooting the router fixes it
10:00 AM rdtsc-w: Had to give up on the Kollmorgen drive... too many problems / 4 days of fixing problems and still not working
10:04 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> I thought the failure was the 1st gen starlink dish - (because rebooting the dish fixed it) but I wonder now if it was the router - the starlink is now a 2nd gen with totally different hardware
10:05 AM rdtsc-w: routers are still rather flaky and need an occasional reboot
10:06 AM rdtsc-w: of course it doesn't help that an internet source is a constant stream of hacking attempts
10:07 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> yah - I bought this one because it would allow ipv6 port forwards..
10:07 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> ( I have one machine that I need to ssh into)
10:07 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> and starlink doesn't give you a public facing ip4 address if you are residential..
10:08 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> I learned a lot about ipv6 - so that is good
10:22 AM roycroft: like how every year is the year of ipv6, just like every year is the year of the linux laptop? :)
10:26 AM rdtsc-w: ipv6 will "come out" just about in time for fusion energy
10:32 AM Tom_L: _guillaum_, with flexgui if you can dream it you can likely do it
10:33 AM Tom_L: i did an example that has a few mostly hole routines
10:33 AM Tom_L: http://tom-itx.no-ip.biz:443/~webpage/cnc/JT-SHOP/flexgui/thread_mill2.png
10:33 AM Tom_L: but you can do just about anything you want
10:35 AM Tom_L: whole set of probe routines: http://tom-itx.no-ip.biz:443/~webpage/cnc/JT-SHOP/flexgui/touch-probe3-2.png
10:37 AM Gothia1 is now known as Gothia
10:41 AM roycroft: there are people who still use classful routing on the internet and still wonder why it doesn't work right any more
10:42 AM roycroft: every time i hear someone say "class c" i have to reply "what is that? a class c network is as extinct as the dodo bird"
10:43 AM roycroft: "but when i learned networking 35 years ago we had class a, b, an c networks ..."
10:43 AM roycroft: and those are the people who have caused the migration to ipv6 to take decades instead of years
10:44 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> lol - I like the xkcd network map..
10:45 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> where - is it IBM has the most numbers?
10:45 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> something like that.
10:46 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> no - not what I remember lol
10:46 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> https://xkcd.com/195/
10:47 AM roycroft: it used to be a few universities like mit and udb, and dec, who had the biggest ipv4 allocations
10:48 AM roycroft: btw, i finally stopped using my ipv4 allocations that i got in 1992
10:48 AM roycroft: i have a /22 and a /23
10:48 AM roycroft: i was going to sell them, but there was a glitch
10:48 AM roycroft: when i got the allocations i lived in washington, and my business was registered there
10:48 AM roycroft: when i moved to oregon i registered my business in oregon, as is appropriate
10:49 AM roycroft: the entire rest of the universe was fine with that except for arin
10:49 AM roycroft: arin demanded proof that i "sold" my ipv4 allocations from my washington-based company to my oregon-based company
10:49 AM roycroft: and since i had not explicitly done so, they locked me out of access to my account
10:50 AM Tom_L: that should be an easy paper trail to make
10:50 AM roycroft: my address space is legacy addresses, which i could keep and use for free
10:50 AM roycroft: but they had an opt-in mechanism to voluntarily pay for them, and i tried that
10:50 AM roycroft: but they refused
10:50 AM roycroft: they wanted a bunch of stuff - it would have been difficult to fabricate
10:50 AM roycroft: at any rate, i didn't worry about it
10:51 AM roycroft: i kept using the addresses, and did not pay them for them
10:51 AM roycroft: but now that i'm done with them, i tried to do the right thing and return them to arin
10:51 AM roycroft: but since they don't recognize me as the legal owner, they won't let me return the addresses
10:51 AM roycroft: so there's a /23 and a /22 in limbo now, that nobody can use
10:52 AM roycroft: my company name did not change when i moved, the owner did not change, and the registered agent (me) did not change
10:53 AM roycroft: but rules are rules, i guess
10:54 AM xxcoder: I wonder how many ip spaces was voided like that
10:54 AM roycroft: probably a lot
10:54 AM roycroft: and they could easily clean it al lup
10:55 AM roycroft: the waiting list for ipv4 micro allocations is months now, perhaps years - i don't keep track any more
10:57 AM roycroft: of course, if they cleaned it all up and reissued the limbo addresses, that would work off a big chunk of the list in one fell swoop
10:57 AM roycroft: but then the list would grow again, and folks would be waiting months or years agin
10:58 AM roycroft: or ipv4 could finally be ditched, and the entire internet would use ipv6, which has a virtually inexhaustible number of addresses
10:59 AM xxcoder: you could give ipv6 address to every leaf in world
10:59 AM roycroft: 2^95 addresses for each living person on the planet
11:00 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> starlink gives you like 64? Something like htata
11:01 AM roycroft: 100 ip addresses for every atom on the surface of the earth
11:02 AM roycroft: 64 is a tiny amount
11:02 AM roycroft: but yes, it's a common allocation for individual customers
11:02 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> still probably more than 'normal' people would use.
11:03 AM roycroft: one of the neat things about ipv6 is that you can easily multihome without having to manage routing tables
11:03 AM roycroft: you just get an ipv6 allocation from each of your providers, and dual or multi number each host/interface
11:03 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> It took me a bit for the light to come on - you are getting physical IP addresses with IPV6 (normally)
11:05 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841@> when I first started playing with it - I was trying to use the routers IPV6 address to get to my machine.. Duh
11:05 AM lcnc-relay: <_guillaum_@> Tom_L: Thank you Tom. I found your documentation and run your mill example. I will try it deeper
11:05 AM roycroft: yes, and while ipv6 has rfc1918 equivalent (non-routable) address blocks, usually you get enough ipv6 addresses from your provider(s) that you don't bother using them
11:05 AM lcnc-relay: <_guillaum_@> * ran
11:06 AM Tom_L: you could make simple machining routines the same way
11:06 AM roycroft: you just put public addresses on everything and use your firewall to manage traffic to the public internet
11:06 AM Tom_L: set up a parameter list and call a subroutine
11:27 AM xxcoder: interesting metal. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/10/251023031622.htm
11:27 AM xxcoder: sure sounds close to myth metal adamant lol
11:30 AM lcnc-relay: <Mister Wallace> Howdy folks, I picked up a barely used Velox VR5050 CNC router at an auction that’s currently running Mach3 on a windows PC. I imagine there is a path to get it on linuxcnc, anyone have a suggestion on where I should start? I poked around in the control box, the machine is using a Leadshine MX4660 driver board and has an unknown board connected to the PC via Ethernet
11:30 AM lcnc-relay: <Mister Wallace> https://jauriarts.org/_heisenbridge/media/matrix.org/jDdpowJOrpYSILeJekurZYjB/AJLMZvX0Y0Y/IMG_0765.jpeg
11:30 AM lcnc-relay: (Unknown board)
11:31 AM lcnc-relay: <Mister Wallace> Oh, duh. ESS Rev 2.
11:31 AM Rab: https://www.warp9td.com/index.php/documentation/doc-ess
11:32 AM lcnc-relay: <Mister Wallace> Looking at linuxcnc as an alternative to buying mach4, I need some features mach3 doesn’t have.
11:32 AM Tom_L: linuxcnc with flexgui and you're golden
11:33 AM lcnc-relay: <Mister Wallace> Can it directly interface with the ESS? Or am I going to need to replace it?
11:33 AM Rab: Based on skimming the forums I don't think LinuxCNC can interoperate with the ESS.
11:33 AM Tom_L: i don't know the board. i'd look into a mesa card
11:34 AM Tom_L: 7i96s?
11:34 AM lcnc-relay: <Mister Wallace> If I need to swap it a mesa board would be the play
11:34 AM lcnc-relay: <Mister Wallace> Would probs work
11:34 AM Rab: Lots of threads on the forums about that.
11:35 AM lcnc-relay: <lesliet@> should, yeah. Mesa seems to play very nicely with LinuxCNC
11:35 AM lcnc-relay: <Mister Wallace> The machine has wiring for an apparent 4th axis, I need to trace and see where those go (I do not own a 4th axis, want to get one for this down the line for a specific project)
11:35 AM lcnc-relay: <Mister Wallace> https://jauriarts.org/_heisenbridge/media/matrix.org/kQWwaavpnFRAQypSfQmkYydP/WtvW_HyYBIQ/IMG_0751.jpeg
11:35 AM roycroft: *chuckle*
11:35 AM roycroft: i've installed s3fs on my archive server so i can easily back it up offsite
11:36 AM JT-MShop: what is ESS?
11:36 AM lcnc-relay: <Mister Wallace> https://jauriarts.org/_heisenbridge/media/matrix.org/dEAdKGRegQhZkTgqeeCcCZZO/H0ms-b2cIqA/IMG_0647.jpeg
11:36 AM lcnc-relay: This is the spindle VFD, anyone know if linuxcnc has support for it?
11:36 AM Rab: Ethernet Smooth Stepper
11:36 AM roycroft: it reminds me of when i first was able to nfs mount gatekeeper.dec.com, and suddenly had gigabytes of storage available (back in the early '80s)
11:36 AM lcnc-relay: <Mister Wallace> ESS: https://warp9td.com/index.php/documentation/doc-ess
11:36 AM roycroft: s3fs 64P 0 64P 0% /backup/wasabi
11:36 AM JT-MShop: ah a mac thing
11:36 AM roycroft: i now have 64 petabytes of storage available :)
11:36 AM Tom_L: Mister Wallace find the data sheet for it
11:37 AM Rab: Mister Wallace, that looks like a very typical VFD. Interfacing will depend on the VFD I/O and the control hardware you use, but I'm 100% confident the answer is yes.
11:38 AM lcnc-relay: <Mister Wallace> Cool!
11:39 AM lcnc-relay: <Mister Wallace> Not going to do this conversion immediately given that the machine works perfectly fine, but I’ll put it on the list
11:39 AM JT-MShop: lovejoy just showed up so time for a nap
11:39 AM Rab: The VFD usually has an analog voltage input for speed, and the Mesa hardware or other breakout board would have an analog output that LinuxCNC can control. Some VFDs have more complex command schemes over e.g. RS-232 or modbus.
11:40 AM JT-MShop: mesa has a spinx1 board
11:40 AM Tom_L: easy route is analog
11:40 AM lcnc-relay: <lesliet@> pretty common that a vfd will also have multiple input options
11:40 AM lcnc-relay: <Mister Wallace> Worst case I can swap to a new VFD, would be nice to not have to hook this thing up to my phase converter
11:42 AM lcnc-relay: <lesliet@> odds are pretty good it will work as is
11:42 AM lcnc-relay: <Mister Wallace> Sweet
11:42 AM Rab: Delta is reputable stuff.
11:43 AM lcnc-relay: <Mister Wallace> I really should just wire a subpanel for the phase converter
11:43 AM Rab: The only issue with that VFD is that it takes 3-phase power, in case that isn't available for you. Some VFDs can run from either 3-phase or single-phase with derating, I don't know if that's the case with this one.
11:44 AM lcnc-relay: <Mister Wallace> This one is 3-phase only, but I have it. I just get tired of swapping what tool’s connected to it.
11:47 AM rdtsc-w: Some drives don't care and may run fine from 1ph (others may throw a "missing phase" fault)
11:48 AM Rab: yup
11:50 AM Rab: There are ways to fake out the third leg detection for the "smarter drives", but I don't have any experience with that.
11:50 AM lcnc-relay: <Mister Wallace> Double checking the documentation
12:03 PM roycroft: i have had good luck with huan yang vfds
12:03 PM roycroft: they are chinese, but made well, unlike many chinese products (as long as you don't get a counterfeit one)
12:04 PM roycroft: they are relatively inexpensive, and can take both single phase and 3 phase input, with derating for the former, of course
12:05 PM roycroft: and heaps of folks use them with linuxcnc
12:23 PM xxcoder: https://youtu.be/oWIZYzgDixk fun. he got cnc router cheaper than mini router
12:25 PM xxcoder: new name for cnc router - "flat maker"
01:32 PM roycroft: lunch time
01:32 PM roycroft: i need to figure out how to make a temporary/portable mount for the power feeder
01:32 PM roycroft: and btw, i am almost done with my second "final" design for the roof framing
01:33 PM roycroft: i was all ready to go - i even got the template issue resolved - when my correspondent who has been doing timber framing for almost 50 years pointed out a potential fatal flaw in my design
01:33 PM roycroft: so i've been redoing that part of the design again
01:34 PM roycroft: which is fortunately a pretty minor change, but one that requires redoing a number of drawings
01:37 PM xxcoder: lol good thing eh
01:37 PM xxcoder: bit hard to change after install
01:48 PM roycroft: yes, and there's a good chance that the loft floors would have collapsed once i loaded them
01:49 PM JT-MShop: crap, the motor I just put on the splitter popped once but won't start...
01:49 PM roycroft: the roof itself would have been fine
01:49 PM roycroft: and i could have fixed the problem after install, but it would look really ugly
01:50 PM roycroft: anyway, i'm really unhappy about how long this has taken to get going, but i'm happy i found out about this issue before i started doing the joinery on those timbers
01:50 PM roycroft: i'm a little irritated with my correspondent
01:51 PM roycroft: as i said, he's been doing this for almost 50 years, and has written several books, some of which i have
01:51 PM roycroft: he's nice and trying to be somewhat helpful, but he teaches timber framing classes and is trying to get me to take one
01:53 PM roycroft: the problems are: 1. they are back east - he teaches mainly in minnesota and wisconsin, and sometimes in new england, 2: they are expensive and require a week, and i can afford neither the time nor the money, and 3: he's not doing any more classes until next summer, when i need the roof done already
01:53 PM roycroft: but because of this he's being "helpful", but doling out tips/advice in tiny bits, and very slowly
01:54 PM Tom_L: JT-MShop, untested assembly motors?
01:54 PM roycroft: i don't think the guy owes me anything, of course, but if he's going to help it would be nice if he'd point out significant problems like this earlier on in my process
01:55 PM JT-MShop: that motor at least ran in the run tunnel I can tell by the sparkplug
01:55 PM roycroft: the other thing that sucks is that those templated i've been struggling with are the very joints that i have to reengineer, so i get to do that all over again
01:56 PM * Tom_L gives roycroft a hammer and a pile of 2x4s
01:57 PM Tom_L: there used to be a place here that built log houses
01:57 PM Tom_L: i'd imagine the process would be similar
01:57 PM Tom_L: without a diagram or images it's a bit harder to tell
01:58 PM Tom_L: and no i won't offer any joinery advice because i have none
02:00 PM roycroft: there are many similarities between log houses and timber frame houses
02:00 PM roycroft: but they are also significantly different
02:01 PM roycroft: this is a simple fix - it involves creating more bearing surface for some summer beams - but it requires altering a bunch of drawings, and rebuilding an assembly pretty much from scratch
02:14 PM -!- #linuxcnc mode set to +v by ChanServ
02:15 PM JT-Shop: the cast iron liner motor would be better but I thought it was locked up... turns out it has a flywheel brake on it like lawnmowers have
02:21 PM JT-Shop: the best thing about the cast iron liner motor is it's the exact same configuration as the old one
02:22 PM JT-Shop: the shaft is too long but that's better than too short
03:25 PM JT-Shop: crap I gotta drain the gas and oil out of the engine I just tried
03:45 PM rdtsc-w: never a dull moment :)
03:46 PM JT-Shop: at least the forecast is for rain starting Saturday so I can work on the C3
04:10 PM roycroft: the rain here starts tomorrow
04:10 PM roycroft: and ends in may
04:11 PM roycroft: when i was heading over to bend yesterday odot were putting up the snow poles along the highway above 3000'
04:11 PM roycroft: they should not need them for this upcoming storm, but they will be needed soon
04:15 PM lcnc-relay: <lesliet@> parts for the mill head came today, was pretty happy to find that the varispeed belt and the hi/lo shift handle actually fit.
04:16 PM lcnc-relay: <lesliet@> the shift handle fitting was the final piece of that puzzle, wasn't really wanting to have to build one. Lots of components
04:16 PM * roycroft just got vaxxed up for the season
04:17 PM lcnc-relay: <lesliet@> I should, but sometimes too lazy to go seek it out
04:18 PM lcnc-relay: <lesliet@> was doing that at rite aid, but they went broke and closed
04:20 PM JT-Shop: hmm the electric start flywheel was rubbing on bracket... no wonder it would not start
04:20 PM roycroft: you really should, for your sake and the sake of your community
04:21 PM * roycroft guilt trips lesliet
04:56 PM rdtsc: sounds like you're well on the way to a successful rebuild, lesliet
05:08 PM lcnc-relay: <lesliet@> trying to just keep making steady progress
05:10 PM JT-Shop: all right the flywheel is mounted on the next engine and all looks good
05:11 PM JT-Shop: got the shaft cut off and tested the length... I'm feeling good that this motor will run
05:14 PM Tom_L: hope so
05:14 PM Tom_L: got a spare lovejoy now
05:17 PM JT-Shop: the 25mm is a spare yup, both motors I'm trying today are 7/8"
05:30 PM JT-Shop: I'm feeling better about this engine working for me
06:07 PM xxcoder: man the birds is abusing the tree here
06:08 PM xxcoder: birds is constantly flying around it and landing at random spots. so tree branches is constantly moving.
06:08 PM JT-Shop: Roger McGuinn, Gene Clark, David Crosby, Chris Hillman, and Michael Clarke?
06:09 PM JT-Shop: oh you said birds not byrds
06:09 PM xxcoder: honestly dont know what byrd is lol
06:10 PM JT-Shop: it's a band
06:10 PM xxcoder: ok
06:10 PM JT-Shop: and you would not know them
06:11 PM JT-Shop: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Byrds
06:12 PM * JT-Shop calls it a day
06:19 PM unclouded_ is now known as unclouded
06:32 PM xxcoder: tree is being birded again
07:00 PM lcnc-relay: <ccatlett1984@> Ok, major progress today.
07:00 PM lcnc-relay: Homing is finished, scale is correct.
07:00 PM lcnc-relay: Pendant mostly works... Literally everything except the mpg (jog wheel).
07:01 PM Tom_L: nice
07:02 PM xxcoder: awesome
07:02 PM Tom_L: does it have an axis switch for the mpg?
07:02 PM Tom_L: and precision
07:03 PM lcnc-relay: <ccatlett1984@> Yes, and both of those knobs are seen in hal monitor as functioning correctly
07:03 PM Tom_L: nice
07:03 PM lcnc-relay: <ccatlett1984@> Just the darn dial....

07:04 PM Tom_L: i ran mine thru a ilopass
07:05 PM Tom_L: http://tom-itx.no-ip.biz:443/~webpage/cnc/pendant/pendant2.jpg
07:05 PM lcnc-relay: <ccatlett1984@> This is a wbh04b, it has that in the hal file for the pendant
07:05 PM Tom_L: yours is a bit fancier than mine
07:05 PM Tom_L: i figured as much
07:06 PM lcnc-relay: <ccatlett1984@> Using the cmpine utility, the os sees the count changes
07:06 PM lcnc-relay: <ccatlett1984@> Cmdline
07:06 PM lcnc-relay: <ccatlett1984@> I'll have to look at some other half files for it, I'm sure it's something silly
07:07 PM lcnc-relay: <ccatlett1984@> This weekend I need to finish the workbench for it, and get it moved to its final home, so I can supply power for the spindle
07:08 PM lcnc-relay: <ccatlett1984@> Then I can start commissioning
07:15 PM Tom_L: https://forum.linuxcnc.org/24-hal-components/45092-working-config-for-xhc-whb04b-4-pendant
07:18 PM Tom_L: http://linuxcnc.org/docs/2.8/html/man/man1/xhc-whb04b-6.1.html
07:18 PM Tom_L: not sure how up to date that one is... 2.8
07:19 PM Tom_L: near the bottom
07:19 PM Tom_L: from the looks of that i'm glad i have the pendant i have :)
07:19 PM Tom_L: alot to keep track of there
07:20 PM lcnc-relay: <ccatlett1984@> I mean it's got 10 macro buttons that are user assignable, plus some hard wired ones
07:21 PM Tom_L: probe corners etc
07:21 PM Tom_L: i added those to my axis screen
