19:28 tsmeow plinks peas at
19:29 tsmeow bytes
19:30 tsmeow sits down next to Tom and stares off into the dist
19:32 rue_house katsmeow, I found the time
19:32 rue_house you PM'd tom, crm, and probably me
19:32 rue_house and rifraf
19:32 rue_house nobody answered
19:33 rue_house crm wanted to see the video, but by the time he learned about it you'd already given up on evryone
19:33 rue_house rifraf must have said soemthing about string, tho its not mentioned in ANY of the channel conversation
19:33 katsmeow who was asking insistantly for the video in the first pace?
19:34 rue_house you were wearing out on the project, your progress was slowing down,
19:34 rue_house kat, nobody was asking for a video in the channel
19:34 katsmeow the couplings were the breakthru, and the steppers came in the next week
19:34 rue_house as you were starting to slow down, you worked on getting eagle set up and working, but it was giving you a lot of trouble
19:35 rue_house you never mentioned using steppers, you were setting it up with encoders and motors
19:35 rue_house well, you mentioned steppers twice as a ugly alternative
19:36 katsmeow and there was a problem with that, and with the steppers, that was changing the shaft sizes and not having alathe to make my own normal couplers
19:36 rue_house 2006-Nov-08
19:36 rue_house tho you mention the video was posted for 2 days, but you didn't publically post it
19:36 rue_house probably due to bandwidth constraints
19:37 rue_house (I'm saying you were perfectly justified in not publically posting it)
19:37 rue_house nowhere in channel did the words 'pink' or 'red' come up in the context of your machine
19:38 rue_house it did come up in the context of rifrafs windmill and something about fire
19:39 rue_house if you like, I can post the few days, but I suspect you would not like, and I hvae no intention of upsetting you
19:39 katsmeow you look in here and in robotics?
19:39 rue_house just robotics...

19:42 rue_house the whole 8th is...
19:42 rue_house 01:28:07: ...katsmeow-afk:i think of steppers, but more likely dc motors on threaded rod for now
19:42 rue_house 01:28:24: ...katsmeow-afk:after all, i need the driller to make pcb for the steppers
19:42 rue_house 03:56:02: ......rue_house::) you could breadboard it

19:53 katsmeow Session Start: Fri Jul 13 23:48:41 2007
19:53 rue_house your getting more and more frustrated as 2006 closes
19:54 rue_house and your work on it is really slowing down
19:55 rue_house most of the time your on irc is just chatting about things people are doing
19:57 katsmeow it was winter i was prolly low on heat, as usual
19:59 rue_house well, I cant get anywhere on defending myself on that one, I need to get back to an applology for someone else I need to say sorry to for upsetting now...
20:00 katsmeow huh?
20:01 katsmeow drat, someone else spotted those 3000 74LVX574's and bit more than $4.25 on them
20:01 katsmeow bit/bid
20:02 katsmeow i apparently deleted all files related tot he driller, including the avi, wbpages, local pics, and irc logs
20:09 katsmeow i know i deleted over a megabyte of Tiggr's source code
20:32 katsmeow good grief, word spread, there's been 2 more bids
20:33 katsmeow they bid up to $4.49 on the 4231 pcs of 74LCX86 too
20:36 rue_house found it, I wasn't there
20:36 katsmeow found where what?
20:38 rue_house http://ruemohr.org/~ircjunk/not_public_dont_open/%23robotics-2006-11-20.html
20:38 rue_house I WAS NOT THERE
20:44 rue_house it looks like I was writing code for an array controller of some sort
20:46 rue_house and a robot controller
20:46 rue_house Nov 24 2006 botctrl1.c.test
20:50 katsmeow yanno, being that kangaroos mostly hop instead of walk, they would be a great help to Satan Claws in deep snow
20:51 katsmeow 07:47:27: ......rue_house:BANG! BANG! PINK! BANG!
20:51 katsmeow 07:48:24: .......katsmouw:i didn't coose pink, i had the cord
20:52 katsmeow 07:48:48: .......katsmouw:i wasn't about to drive to town and buy a different color of cord only 3 inches long
20:52 rue_house where?
20:52 katsmeow middle of http://ruemohr.org/~ircjunk/not_public_dont_open/%23robotics-2006-11-20.html
20:52 katsmeow 07:49:02: .......kcbanner:katsmouw, the cord is very nice
20:52 katsmeow 07:49:16: .......kcbanner:wtf is wrong with a red cord
20:53 katsmeow 07:50:45: .........RifRaf:so some kinda plastic pink string you had
20:53 katsmeow 07:50:56: .......kcbanner:I thought it was red
20:53 katsmeow 07:50:59: .......katsmouw:the point is near-zero stretch and easy to attach
20:53 katsmeow 07:51:02: .........RifRaf:ok its red
20:53 rue_house hmm
20:53 katsmeow 07:51:15: .......katsmouw:pick any frea$%^$# color you want
20:54 katsmeow 07:51:32: .........RifRaf:are you sure its the right colour though?
20:54 katsmeow 07:51:47: .......katsmouw:it's not color coded for anything
20:54 katsmeow 07:52:09: .......katsmouw:rue, i am about to give up on ever posting any more pics ever again
20:54 katsmeow 07:52:31: .......katsmouw:i have spent more time ont he damned color than on any seriosu discussion of it
20:55 katsmeow there is the first req for a video ==>> 07:54:08: .........RifRaf:can you make videos with your cam?
20:55 rue_house k wait, this isn't me attacking you, I was mostly making a joke about the pneumatic nailer
20:55 katsmeow and by then it was already gone ==>> 07:55:27: .......katsmouw:i'llhaveto put it back together, i trashed it
20:55 rue_house and ace wanting quiet
20:57 katsmeow 08:37:43: .........RifRaf:katsmouw ok very cool, i see zero slip, but i dunno how
20:58 katsmeow 08:38:17: .........RifRaf:it moves very well, and its not glued to the red thing?
20:58 katsmeow 08:38:28: .......katsmouw:Rif, it could slip AS IS, since i stopped work on it and didn't drop a spot of glue on it
20:58 katsmeow so by then, i was pretty much washing my hands of it already
20:58 katsmeow 08:39:40: .......katsmouw:the drop of glue int he holes the red cord passes thru will stop all wear of the cord ont he metal, since the cord is not supposed to move against the steel at all
20:58 katsmeow 08:41:07: .........RifRaf:katsmouw so the cord does have to hold all the tension still?
20:59 katsmeow 08:43:45: .......katsmouw:Riff, the cord is under as much tension as you can put on it
20:59 katsmeow 08:44:11: ........Rebecca:katsmouw: i thought the coupleing device was cool.... after i was told what it was. :D
21:00 katsmeow 09:06:15: ............Rif:ok i see how the wing nuts and grubs screws hold everything in place now
21:00 katsmeow 09:06:55: ............Rif:and nylocks, all looks good katsmouw, as long as that sting it bloody strong
21:00 katsmeow 09:07:02: .......katsmouw:it is
21:00 katsmeow 09:07:02: ............Rif:string*
21:00 katsmeow 09:07:11: .......katsmouw:it's good for 100lbs or so
21:00 katsmeow 09:07:15: ............Rif:ok cool
21:00 katsmeow 09:07:38: ............Rif:i guess the force is distributed evenly among the 4 points of contact
21:00 katsmeow 09:07:48: .......katsmouw:yeas
21:00 katsmeow 09:08:14: .......katsm
21:01 katsmeow 09:08:14: .......katsmouw:and that stepper won't exert 100lb/inches
21:01 katsmeow 09:08:31: ............Rif:yep true, i forgot what was driving it
21:01 katsmeow 09:08:41: ............Rif:and is the load is not great should work fine
21:01 katsmeow 09:08:46: .......katsmouw:correct
21:01 katsmeow 09:08:55: .......katsmouw:it works for this situation
21:01 katsmeow 09:09:05: ............Rif:
21:01 tsmeow
21:01 katsmeow 09:09:11: .......katsmouw:it is not an acnchor winch for the Queen Mary
21:01 katsmeow 09:09:19: ............Rif:true
21:02 katsmeow so maybe it was the next day things got outa hand, i dunno
21:06 rue_shop3 company over, I'm gonna try to finish defending myself later
21:10 tsmeow s
21:10 katsmeow so yu had a pink nail gun?
21:54 rue_house I just realized its a joke thats half about a misfire on the nail gun
21:54 rue_house it could have been completely about a misfire on it
21:55 Tom_itx you still hashin over something that happened eons ago?
21:57 Tom_itx learning catia.. not convinced i like it
21:58 katsmeow o
21:58 rue_house we found the event tho
21:59 rue_house I had just come back from using the nail gun on the shop and I was completely revved up
21:59 rue_house ace said he was tired and about to go to bed
21:59 rue_house so I did my imporession of the nailgun (which had a misfire issue) with a missfire in it
22:00 rue_house BANG BANG pink (its the sound the misfire makes) BANG
22:00 rue_house probably completely oblivious to kat having a meltdown over the flogging she was getting over her coupler
22:01 katsmeow i had a pneumatic staple gun (different nose than the nail gun version), it didn't misfire or pink
22:06 rue_house this one did, the trigger occasionally slipped off the firing pin
22:06 rue_house aka didn't catch it
22:06 Tom_itx don't recall anyone getting a flogging
22:07 tsmeow shows Tom her emotional s
