[20:52:29] * katsmeow throws out a can of pingles
[21:19:58] <rue_house> hey kat
[21:20:07] <rue_house> wrokin on the pipe bender
[21:23:18] <katsmeow> i thought all electricians had conduit benders
[21:24:26] <rue_house> I want a continious, not intermittent bend
[21:24:53] <rue_house> rings from 6' to 12'
[21:25:22] <katsmeow> for the 3 hoop thing?
[21:25:43] <rue_house> yup
[21:25:45] <katsmeow> i think if you are upside down in the 6ft one, you willwish it was 7ft
[21:25:50] <rue_house> motorized gyro cage
[21:26:10] <rue_house> I was just checking, apparently the inner ring is 8'
[21:26:16] <katsmeow> ok
[21:26:18] <rue_house> with 3" spacing between them
[21:26:36] <rue_house> so, 8, 8.5 and 9
[21:26:44] <rue_house> er, + conduit width..

[21:27:39] <rue_house> thats my ~$300 shaker motor
[21:28:39] <katsmeow> welders can be sooooooo handy
[21:28:51] <katsmeow> why is it $300 ?
[21:28:55] <rue_house> :)
[21:29:01] <rue_house> thats what they cost online
[21:29:06] <rue_house> ...
[21:29:06] <katsmeow> oh
[21:31:11] <rue_house> I need to clear up the icecream bucket, its the form for the base and the sorter bucket I want to use
[21:32:06] <katsmeow> plain 5 gal bucket from almost any construction job?
[21:32:15] <rue_house> icecream bucket
[21:32:16] <katsmeow> plaster bucket?
[21:39:47] <Tom_itx> KFC bucket
[21:40:34] <katsmeow> bottom 12" of a small water heater
[21:41:00] <katsmeow> (doesn't matter it it leaks, you fill it with concrete anyhow, it will stop leaking)

[21:42:34] <Tom_itx> cad porn
[21:43:52] <rue_house> 3 extrusions w/csg
[21:44:31] <katsmeow> csg?

[21:44:54] <rue_house> constructive solid geometry,
[21:45:30] <rue_house> that one is evil
[21:45:52] <Tom_itx> solid combine then a shell
[21:45:58] <Tom_itx> draw the front
[21:46:00] <Tom_itx> draw the side
[21:46:03] <Tom_itx> combine them
[21:46:11] <Tom_itx> shell it out with a thickness
[21:46:12] <Tom_itx> done.
[21:46:37] <katsmeow> red hot, bend it, done
[21:46:41] <Tom_itx> catia makes it easy
[21:46:50] <Tom_itx> haha kat..
[21:47:00] <rue_house> well in poray its just an extrusion along a path
[21:47:02] <Tom_itx> ole truck frame
[21:47:08] <katsmeow> it's how i formed 1x2 channel into pontoon saddles
[21:47:28] <Tom_itx> http://tom-itx.no-ip.biz:81/~webpage/cnc/practice_drawings/problem32.jpg
[21:47:35] <Tom_itx> rue, that's an extrusion along a path
[21:47:47] <Tom_itx> the other one snakes both directions
[21:49:49] <Tom_itx> hard to see in the pics
[21:50:42] <rue_house> yea, openscad cant do path extrusions
[21:51:11] <rue_house> it cant even do a rotary extrude along anything but the z axis
[21:51:59] <Tom_itx> simple as it seems, i'm impressed with their rectangular pattern tool
[21:52:31] <Tom_itx> it will follow any path both directions with uneven or custom spacing if wanted
[21:52:40] <Tom_itx> not just x & y
[21:53:10] <rue_house> I used to do 3d extrusions
[21:55:05] <Tom_itx> i printed a pythagorean puzzle today
[21:55:27] <Tom_itx> http://mathworld.wolfram.com/images/eps-gif/PythagoreanSquarePuzzle_1000.gif
[21:55:41] <Tom_itx> i made one of those in hs, it reminded me of it
[21:56:06] <Tom_itx> but now you know how to solve it
[22:25:14] <rue_house> I need to work out how to anchor the motor in a block of concrete
[22:27:03] <katsmeow> cone of rebar, a few hoops around the cone, weld to underside of mounting plate
[22:27:20] <katsmeow> drop in bucket, pour concrete, let sit for a week
[22:27:43] <rue_house> I want to be abel to remove it fromt eh block
[22:28:15] <katsmeow> if you don't wanna weld, dril holes, pass long bolts thru to form a cone shape (4, 5, 6 etc bolts)
[22:28:29] <katsmeow> you'll need to bend the bolts
[22:29:14] <rue_house> or I just set bolts in the concrete?
[22:29:19] <rue_house> but...
[22:29:26] <katsmeow> i strongly suggest you drill the holes int eh steel, fasten the bolts securely with nuts, and then set that into the bucket
[22:30:02] <katsmeow> otherwise, it's a real pita to drill hole to align tot he bolts in the concrete
[22:30:02] <rue_house> I suppose if its straight in the motor it'll unbolt straight
[22:31:43] <katsmeow> you can bend them 30 degress , flare out, under the point they enter the concrete
[22:32:39] <katsmeow> when you get 1/2 the bolt heigth covered in pour, lay in a donut , then resume the pour
[22:33:06] <katsmeow> keeps it from splitting with any outward forces
[22:33:40] <rue_house> if I tack some metal between the heads, it'll ensure there is no toque on them in the concrete
[22:34:05] <katsmeow> ok
[22:34:33] <katsmeow> decent sized washers might help, specially if yu don't bend the bolts
[22:35:30] <Moon_> WOOOOOP
[22:43:00] <rue_house> oh what was sI supposed to tell you
[22:43:18] <Moon_> MAIL?
[22:43:27] <rue_house> art said one of the leaks is fixed, the one in the bedroom skylight is still an issue
[22:43:32] <rue_house> none yet
[22:45:14] <rue_house> every day I note down which project to put some time in on, and every day I work on something else
[22:45:19] <rue_house> so its working, but its not
[22:45:53] <Moon_> XD
[22:47:42] <Moon_> s<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
[22:47:55] <Moon_> SO s he going to call some time>?
[22:48:02] <rue_house> dunno
[22:48:34] <Moon_> I wonder if someone has hacked my computer and added an interupt to the one for my STDIO
[22:48:48] <rue_house> hows that?
[22:49:02] <Moon_> my keyboard has been acting up the last week or so
[23:23:41] <rue_house> any processes running that look something like kjsahdfkjashAHHADFA
