00:04 zhanx But I am going for a 57,000 $ grant
00:06 katsmeow-afk shame you can't build a business based on robotics, something that can substitute for humans in hazardous work
00:07 zhanx Not at first
00:07 katsmeow-afk like your robot spider crawling into enemy camp for eavesdropping, or wire cutting, etc
00:08 zhanx Yep, but my cnc router to do custom in lays will pay for that
00:09 katsmeow-afk cool
00:09 zhanx Basically it's a 2 axis router setup
00:30 zhanx So kat
00:30 katsmeow-afk so zhanx
00:31 zhanx My new frame for elf will be bass wood,
00:31 katsmeow-afk wood?!
00:31 zhanx Free due to someone not knowing what trees are
00:31 zhanx Easy to cut
00:31 katsmeow-afk but will the wood split when the servos torque on it?
00:31 zhanx Lite etc
00:32 katsmeow-afk or even tighten screws down on it?
00:32 zhanx Yes, but I will resin coat it
00:32 zhanx Used to make planes out of it
00:33 zhanx Linear stabilization testing
00:33 zhanx Balances without motor torque
00:35 katsmeow-afk ok
00:36 katsmeow-afk you know you can get FR4 pcb-type fiberglass up to .120 thick, and .093 is fairly easy to get, mill, drill, file, etc, and it's very tough, and somewhat flexable

00:44 zhanx K
00:45 katsmeow-afk he occasonally has some great deals in the odd sizes, like the 3inch wide .093 thick

00:46 zhanx Legs are wood dowls.. test bed

00:58 zhanx Long story short he can drive
00:59 zhanx All right foot
01:17 tsmeow-afk wonders,,, what it wouldlook like,,, at night, if a cannon was packed with large chunk saw chips, which had been soaked in gasoline, and a *very small* charge was used to fire the ca
01:18 zhanx Who knows but fyi blank charges are 12 gauge rounds

01:22 rue_house this will eb so much fun
01:22 rue_house I was trying to think of how to get it to rotate its hostname on reboot
01:23 rue_house I think if I make a list of host names I can do a random sort and pick first during bootup
01:23 rue_house heh, then I wonder if I could make a tunnel to itself
01:23 rue_house oh its got a 4 port NIC in it right now
01:24 rue_house I could loop them to each other with crossover cables
01:25 rue_house or more confusing, to a switch
01:26 rue_house I suppose via hosts each nic could come up as a different dns
01:26 rue_house accounting, HR, IT, and....
01:26 rue_house sales
01:27 rue_house give them all 10. addresses with netmask of 255.0.0.0
01:28 rue_house and I think I worked out how to use screen to view what they do
17:05 katsmeow-afk i finally know why i didn't get rid of those riding mower decks : so i'd have the flat pulleys make a new wide-throat bandsaw, because i cannot saw slices wider than 2" out of plates with the HF bandsaw i have
17:06 katsmeow-afk they are a lil small tho
17:07 tsmeow-afk re-ponders making them from scratch, so they'll be 8" diam
17:31 katsmeow-afk arg, it's after 5pm, and i haven't made inny power tools smoke yet tuhday
20:14 katsmeow-afk must come inside, too smokey outside
20:19 katsmeow-afk glad i checked the air conditioner yesterday, going to use it a liltonite, since i cannot leave the elevator shaft open
21:24 rue_shop3 bandsaw remember low rpm! :)
21:24 katsmeow-afk yeas
21:30 rue_shop3 hmm I have a craving to suck some chocolate icecream off a wooden stick
21:31 tsmeow-afk munches taotes and hopes a 67.5" standard bandsaw can be routed to allow cutting a 4ft panels n
21:31 e_shop3 wonders what the feed rate is for 1/2 steel plate thru a 6tpi band
21:32 katsmeow-afk depends on the teeth, motor hp, maybe the kerf
21:32 rue_shop3 :) 1" kerf
21:32 katsmeow-afk damn
21:32 rue_shop3 "you lose a little bit of material on that one"
21:34 katsmeow-afk buy why make a saw blade that trashes a 1" kerf?
21:35 rue_shop3 maybe if the shavings are worth more than the cut
21:35 rue_shop3 hmm
21:36 rue_shop3 all the ice is on the lid of the icecream bucket
21:36 katsmeow-afk that's for the cats, not you
21:37 rue_shop3 so, whats left in the bottom must just be the cream
21:37 katsmeow-afk if you don't like it, they'll eat it too:-)
21:42 katsmeow-afk i was hoping to smear some paint on the bottom of the trailer by now
22:06 rue_house 5 little hackers sitting in a row
22:06 rue_house one day rue said they all gotta go!
22:12 katsmeow-afk no! hackers are inventive sorts of beings
