00:47 rue_shop3 I been trying to cut a piece of glass for my printer table, every cut went wrong
00:48 katsmeow-afk cut it out on the mill?
00:53 katsmeow-afk do you know how fast/slow the KBU800 bridges are?
00:58 katsmeow-afk i wanna run it at audio freqs, and some dioded look open or shorted at hf
01:03 rue_house dunno
01:05 katsmeow-afk ok, how about a pair: 2 in a to-220 case, one common-anode, one common-cathode ?
01:08 katsmeow-afk 100 pcs GBPC3502 ; current bid : $4.25 ; s&h $21
01:08 katsmeow-afk <cough>
01:09 katsmeow-afk FRH20A15 is comon anode, and $5 each
01:52 rue_house I wonder what i'v pulled out of the computer power supplies
01:58 katsmeow-afk varies
02:12 katsmeow-afk ...
03:04 katsmeow-afk .
03:06 katsmeow-afk ok, found a $17 3/8 drill chuck to fit a 1/2 bore ER25 collet , so if i can cnc that mill, i can replace the 1983 lil drill press with a far more accurate cnc version
03:07 katsmeow-afk it's 32 yr old, the big one is at least another 20 yrs older
03:11 katsmeow-afk ok, if i make a psu for the TM50x mainframe, and it's a series of voltage multipliers such that it has taps at 19v, 18v, 34v, 51v, 102v, 153v, 300v, 450vdc , at whatever current equals 80 watts max, what would it be worth?
03:18 katsmeow-afk 0vdc to whatever the tap is set at?
03:18 katsmeow-afk what if it were 160 watts?
03:19 katsmeow-afk and you could put 2 in series to get + and - voltages?
03:20 katsmeow-afk so basically, i am replacing the 2 very old drills with 2 diy milling machines that can also drill holes
03:23 katsmeow-afk so if i make the table lead screw 2000 steps per turn, i can read out mm and thou with equal (in)accuracy?
05:57 katsmeow-afk .
08:16 katsmeow-afk .
09:18 katsmeow-afk MUR2020 , but still pricey on ebay
16:28 Tom_itx http://www.nopistons.com/rotary-engine-building-porting-swaps-55/4-rotor-build-75895/
18:56 katsmeow-afk Tom, i can't help but think he removed so much metal from the oem housing, it will crack where ever he bored it, first time it turns over
18:57 Tom_itx probably so
19:11 katsmeow-afk found out why so much water poured thru the roof, when the holes the bugs bore thru the tar are so small
19:12 katsmeow-afk one of the drains stopped up, the water poured as long as the bug tunnels were covered by the lake on the roof
20:23 tsmeow-afk sits and moans in pain and looks at the sub sammich and watches last week's Big Bang Th
21:07 katsmeow-afk damnit, ebay seller sold me an item not in stock, eta for stock is mid May, 30 days

21:15 katsmeow-afk other seller has the arbor, but it's $7 all by itself from them
21:15 katsmeow-afk and other seller doesn't have the drill chuck
21:34 rue_house hmm
21:57 katsmeow-afk well, now i know why "The Traveling Wilburys" sound so much like Roy Orbison
22:46 rue_shop3 hmm
22:47 tsmeow-afk decides to get in on the hmm
22:47 katsmeow-afk hmm
22:52 katsmeow-afk ok, feets hurt less, going backout to collect tools before they get dew'd all over
23:08 katsmeow-afk bak
23:28 katsmeow-afk Verve insisted that the band officially rename themselves because "Mother" in slang terminology was short for "motherfucker" — a term that apart from its profanity, in a jazz context connotes a very skilled musical instrumentalist.
