[00:00:00] <katsmeow> but it's $10 anyhow, yo pay $400 for encoder wheels? i think you found an industry!
[00:00:08] <rue_house> no
[00:00:14] <rue_house> http://www.ebay.ca/itm/LOT-OF-10-NEW-US-DIGITAL-HUB-DISK-for-E5-500-250-I-L-D-G-B-Optical-Encoder-10pcs-/121758298723
[00:00:20] <rue_house> those ones make me drool too
[00:04:21] <rue_house> http://www.aliexpress.com/item/100-Lines-Code-Disc-Plate-Stainless-Steel-Metal-Encoder-robot-car-tank-chassis-diy-rc-electronic/1895415391.html
[00:04:28] <rue_house> I wonder if I should just take up etching
[00:04:56] <katsmeow> etch a pcb, light goes thru fr4
[00:05:25] <rue_house> if the led is on the back the diffusion wont matter
[00:05:27] <katsmeow> there's .008 pcb common
[00:05:33] <katsmeow> right
[00:06:11] <katsmeow> This listing (1895415391) has been removed, or this item is not available.
[00:06:22] <katsmeow> oh
[00:06:22] <rue_house> ?
[00:06:27] <rue_house> just had it, odd
[00:06:28] <katsmeow> not ebay
[00:07:11] <katsmeow> $21 , yeow
[00:07:25] <katsmeow> oh! for 10 pcs!

[00:09:00] <rue_house> heated snips, but... why!?
[00:09:24] <katsmeow> i don't remember
[00:13:05] <rue_house> its too bad I cant just make the spring the sensor
[00:14:04] <rue_house> wait a sec
[00:14:12] <rue_house> if the spring were a primary coil
[00:14:27] <rue_house> and there were a secondary that was only part of its contracted length
[00:14:37] <rue_house> as it stretched, the number of primary turns would drop
[00:14:55] <rue_house> !?
[00:15:34] <rue_house> Id go with induction, but there is the shorting thing that occurs at short lengths
[00:16:00] <katsmeow> linearity would be a problem
[00:16:15] <rue_house> I can map it
[00:16:22] <rue_house> it goes into a microcontroller
[00:20:51] <katsmeow> yanno, since the republicans killed aireo.com, i have found a lot of $free stuff available online that aerieo wold not have carried, so i guess in a way it was a good thing they bastards shut them down
[00:21:53] <rue_house> ?
[00:22:23] * katsmeow tries to yawn, but msispells thta too
[00:22:32] <rue_house> yaun?
[00:23:28] <katsmeow> aireo was a company that was going to set up antennas in every city and record the shows off the air, and you rent the antenna and they send it to you over the air
[00:23:30] <katsmeow> err
[00:23:36] <katsmeow> over the internets
[00:23:56] <katsmeow> so you can stillw atch tv in NeyYork even tho you aren't tehre any more
[00:24:19] <rue_house> oh I could print anomometer cup/wings
[00:29:56] <katsmeow> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aereo
