[15:38:13] <moon__> HYAY RUE
[20:14:13] <katsmeow> rue, cpvc hoop :
http://DesignerThinking.com/images/DSCF7005m.jpg
[20:14:50] <katsmeow> there's a 2" gap at the ends, this is to accommodate 3 or 4 'T' fittings as spokes
[23:01:40] <rue_shop3> hello
[23:01:50] <^kat^-afk> greetings
[23:02:00] <rue_shop3> whats the hoop for?
[23:02:20] <^kat^-afk> humidifier
[23:02:43] <^kat^-afk> see the black tub in the background?
[23:05:47] <rue_shop3> ok
[23:07:41] <^kat^-afk> shold i always answer the question "whacha making?" with "a secret" ?
[23:09:21] <^kat^-afk> hello?
[23:21:21] * ^kat^-afk makes up an award that she covets, has it made and delivered via UPS, and announces she recieved the coveted award
[23:22:01] <rue_shop3> hey
[23:22:14] <rue_shop3> finished printing the manual fro the lathe, that was a challange
[23:22:28] <rue_shop3> it looks like the printer cant to more than about 15 pages without screwing up
[23:23:07] <rue_shop3> I'm having challanges getting myself to do anything usefull
[23:23:15] <rue_shop3> about in useless things to do
[23:23:27] <rue_shop3> er, abound
[23:23:41] <rue_shop3> hmm, interesting language system errors
[23:23:57] <^kat^-afk> yet you diss me for making a mammoth humidifier
[23:24:15] <rue_shop3> I didn't
[23:24:21] <rue_shop3> you told me what it is
[23:24:27] <rue_shop3> that was what I asked
[23:24:28] <^kat^-afk> i wait all winter to do this, waiting for weather that didn't freeze the water
[23:24:38] <rue_shop3> that makes sense
[23:24:40] <^kat^-afk> [22:42] <^kat^-afk> shold i always answer the question "whacha making?" with "a secret" ?
[23:24:40] <^kat^-afk> [22:44] <^kat^-afk> hello?
[23:25:00] <rue_shop3> there is no wrong answer to "what shall I have for supper"
[23:25:18] <rue_shop3> meaning I have to find some minute detail to base the decision on
[23:25:31] <rue_shop3> like "do I actually have any of that to make"
[23:25:36] <rue_shop3> or "it has salt"
[23:26:12] <^kat^-afk> pre-flavored rice packets that nuke in 12 minutes
[23:26:34] <rue_shop3> yup I could have salty rice
[23:27:42] <rue_shop3> I was trying to work out the gear ratios for the lathe, so I can work out alternate methods of getting the ratios that are one gear reduction short, hence will generate left hand thread
[23:28:15] <rue_shop3> I built a table of over 400 reduction values before I realized I hadn't accounted for more than one reduction set
[23:28:32] <rue_shop3> and there is something really odd about the pitch of the main leadscrew
[23:28:37] <rue_shop3> its 'almost' 12tpi
[23:29:01] <rue_shop3> but the 12tpi gear ratio is 0.9445 or something
[23:29:02] <^kat^-afk> ever year of driving a common allthread with a setpper to simulate any pitch?
[23:29:10] <rue_shop3> yea
[23:29:24] <rue_shop3> its a thought, but I'm not going there yet
[23:29:34] <^kat^-afk> boy i mangled that sentence
[23:29:59] <rue_shop3> I have autocorrection, remember?
[23:30:07] <^kat^-afk> no
[23:30:12] <rue_shop3> well I do
[23:30:28] <rue_shop3> I understand most thoughts people utter regardless of how badly it comes out
[23:30:41] <rue_shop3> most of the time I'm a few words ahead of them too
[23:31:03] <rue_shop3> so, if they stop to try to correct what they did say, I'm well into patience timeout
[23:31:20] * ^kat^-afk nods
[23:32:42] <^kat^-afk> put one stepper on the whatever, read it's freq, apply math to it, and turn the other screw with whatever ratio (.9445 or even .9446)
[23:33:05] <rue_shop3> part of the problem is that the size of the stepper has to be significant
[23:33:13] <rue_shop3> the leadscrew isn't an easy drive
[23:34:22] <^kat^-afk> what if you got a 900rpm 3phase motor and put a homemade rotor in it, with perm magnets?
[23:35:04] <rue_shop3> :)

[23:35:17] <rue_shop3> this chap did a nice job, and I have some gears,
[23:35:20] <Guest87131> HAY RUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[23:35:23] <rue_shop3> hey
[23:35:31] <__m00n__> yeah
[23:35:41] <__m00n__> I got an xtris server hapening
[23:35:43] <^kat^-afk> super high rpm stepper, with lotsa geardown?
[23:35:53] <__m00n__> 159.203.14.64
[23:35:57] <rue_shop3> not dropping steps at startup and winddown
[23:36:02] <rue_shop3> is part of an issue
[23:36:12] <^kat^-afk> that's software
[23:36:28] <rue_shop3> I like hard steps
[23:37:20] <rue_shop3> __m00n__, are you sure you want to do this?
[23:37:37] <rue_shop3> you remmeber what happened last time...
[23:37:38] <__m00n__> what , get my ass kicked?
[23:37:51] <__m00n__> im down
[23:38:06] <rue_shop3> I'm not kicking YOUR ass, I'm just placing the pieces, to solve the puzzle
[23:38:17] <rue_shop3> its nothing personal
[23:38:35] <__m00n__> im smiling
[23:38:58] <rue_shop3> your smiling cause I'm chatting more than playing
[23:39:16] <rue_shop3> and your still doing worse...
[23:41:15] <rue_shop3> I'll play with two hands now
[23:44:28] <rue_shop3> try to not set yourself up to need a particular peice.
[23:46:07] <rue_shop3> I cant stratagize to help you
[23:46:27] <__m00n__> I just have to fake it till i make it bro
[23:48:45] <__m00n__> Im out:P
[23:48:51] <rue_shop3> :/
[23:48:59] <__m00n__> but that server will be up forever
[23:49:02] <rue_shop3> your getting better
[23:49:04] <__m00n__> ish
[23:49:11] <__m00n__> thanks

[23:55:49] <__m00n__> k I sleep now PEACE
[23:56:01] <rue_shop3> gnight
[23:56:06] <rue_shop3> at level 8
[23:56:24] <rue_shop3> .. you only have time to postion the peice...
[23:56:39] <rue_shop3> poor moon
[23:59:21] <rue_shop3> I think tetris is covered in my reflex system, so he cant get close to playing with me
