[00:46:36] <katsmeow> hello
[00:47:01] <katsmeow> ?
[00:48:39] <rue_house> hi
[00:48:56] <rue_house> gngiht
[01:48:46] <rue_bed> rue_house, print tax form!
[01:49:00] <rue_bed> rue_house, liability waiver!
[01:49:13] <rue_bed> rue_house, battery cutoff circuit!
[02:19:09] <rue_bed> so,hmm, I need an interface for controling realtime motion
[02:19:47] <rue_bed> I need something I can stop the tracking on and change the scale and offset of axies
[02:20:17] <rue_bed> and something that can help me align the current user input position to the robot
[02:20:39] <rue_bed> it would be good if i had the robots set up with posiiton feedback
[02:20:51] <rue_bed> maybe I should start modifying the servos
[02:21:07] <rue_bed> I think most f htem use 3.3V on the pots
[02:23:56] <rue_bed> my transform library does the scaling first and then the zeroing, I think I should change that around, so that the zero does not change with the scale
[02:24:18] <rue_bed> and I'm quite sure I should not drink so much tea before bed
[02:24:37] <rue_bed> if I'm notogoing to get to sleep, should I go work in my shop?
[02:24:54] <rue_bed> last time I didn't I regretted it
[02:26:28] <rue_bed> I need a circuit that holds an output low untill the voltage is above 14.4 and then puts it high
[02:27:17] <rue_bed> I need a circuit that holds an ouput low, and if the voltage drops below 11 it puts it high
[02:27:24] <rue_bed> LM....
[02:27:59] <rue_bed> LM072
[02:28:01] <rue_bed> no
[02:28:18] <rue_bed> yea
[02:28:25] <rue_bed> n
[02:28:29] <rue_bed> yea
[02:28:48] <rue_bed> 071/ 072 / 074
[02:29:05] <rue_bed> 358?
[02:29:33] <rue_bed> 393
[02:30:07] <rue_bed> 78L05 as a ref
[02:30:40] <rue_bed> 2k pot down, 1k resistor up
[02:30:47] <rue_bed> no
[02:30:50] <rue_bed> yea
[02:30:58] <rue_bed> higher
[02:31:09] <rue_bed> 20k pot down, 10k resistor up
[02:31:16] <rue_bed> 30k / 12V
[02:31:44] <rue_bed> .4mA
[02:31:51] <rue_bed> no
[02:32:09] <rue_bed> 200k up, 100k down
[02:32:40] <rue_bed> 70uA
[02:33:17] <rue_bed> .1uF filter
[02:33:31] <rue_bed> both on 5V ref
[02:33:52] <rue_bed> use the same diviver tho
[02:34:57] <rue_bed> so, 470k down, 100k up...
[02:36:07] <rue_bed> 470k down, two in parallel, 120k up
[02:36:35] <rue_bed> lm 393
[02:38:11] <rue_bed> cutoff as a 9620, and dump as a Z44
[02:38:25] <rue_bed> 10 ohms dump
[22:39:29] <zhanx> well kat would be proud
[22:39:40] <zhanx> i got this computer running xp just fine
[22:39:40] <rue_shop3> I wonder, in the metal pile were a few compressors, I wonder if their bodies would make good steam engines
[22:39:45] <rue_shop3> yay!
[22:39:49] <rue_shop3> now install linux
[22:39:58] <zhanx> i already did
[22:40:07] <zhanx> xp was last
[22:40:46] <zhanx> using wooden windows to burn cds
[22:40:58] <zhanx> isoĊ of linux
[22:41:15] <zhanx> and print photos for the wife
[22:41:28] <zhanx> (next is a xp virtual machine)
[22:43:26] <zhanx> getting the new ubuntu iso now
[22:49:24] <rue_shop3> oh man did I ever get a good haul from the scrap yard in town today!
[23:08:04] <katsmeow> zhanx , beware being labeled "disabled" or"handicapped" : i was told today by a legal advocate that it's not illegal to take away all my rights to use my property, and allow a dog to have those rights
[23:08:18] <katsmeow> on the basis that i have a disability
[23:14:09] <katsmeow> 116 PCS SANYO STK4044MK5
[23:14:24] <katsmeow> must be god stuff
[23:22:17] <rue_shop3> kat
[23:22:25] <rue_shop3> the scrap yard
[23:22:27] <rue_shop3> in town
[23:22:33] <rue_shop3> I got to scavange
[23:22:46] <rue_shop3> today I got like 300lbs of metal :/
[23:22:52] <katsmeow> wow
[23:22:53] <rue_shop3> there were compressors,
[23:23:07] <rue_shop3> I'm wondering if a compressor could make a good steam engine
[23:23:37] <katsmeow> yeas, if you can make and sync the steam valves
[23:23:43] <rue_shop3> I presume that the motors are burned out, but one of the ones I got a bunch of parts off had a popped out reset button hidden in the case
[23:24:12] <katsmeow> and if the metal will tolerate water, if it won't tolerate water, ask zhanx for a freon that will fit your operating parameters
[23:25:55] <rue_shop3> $10
[23:26:10] <rue_shop3> the guy running the yard abandoned it
[23:26:20] <rue_shop3> I set up a deal with the yard owner
[23:26:43] <rue_shop3> $10/mo for as long as the pile is there for whatever I like
[23:27:11] <rue_shop3> they have to get rid of it and the price of steel is so low nobody knows what to do
[23:27:56] <rue_shop3> prolly 1/4 acre of stuff
[23:28:14] <katsmeow> since you have a lathe, you can make bearing seats, so get anything with bearings
[23:28:41] <katsmeow> figure you save $2 - $10 per bearing, you may nee it next year
[23:28:59] <katsmeow> plus, if the price of steel goes up, you can sell it back
[23:29:33] <katsmeow> differentials have hunky gears too, even the lil spider bevel gears are hunky
[23:29:46] <katsmeow> and you have a use for those bevel gears now
[23:29:53] <rue_shop3> there is a standard transmission in the pile
[23:31:11] <katsmeow> prolly has 5 bearings in it, an 8 - 10 assorted gears
[23:36:43] <katsmeow> New listing 320 PCS AMD AM29F400BB-90SC INTEGRATED CIRCUITS
[23:37:04] * katsmeow looks alil peeved, since she got 100's of those for free in cable boxes
[23:40:03] <katsmeow> risc "engine" : New listing 216 PCS HITACHI HD6417750VF128
[23:40:26] <katsmeow> 1039 page datasheet
[23:45:29] <zhanx-> Evening kat
[23:46:09] <katsmeow> rue, a schematic using those transformers i grabbed, say it can swing 15vac @ 150ma on the secondary, which means i can float some fairly high power circuits up 1500v off ground
[23:46:21] <katsmeow> zhnx see what i said?
[23:47:30] <zhanx-> Yes
[23:47:38] <zhanx-> Amd your right
[23:48:06] <zhanx-> So rue and kat, ac compressor to air compressor?
[23:48:29] <zhanx-> I got a 110 motor
[23:48:41] <zhanx-> Was thinking cheap air compressor
[23:48:42] <katsmeow> 120 PCS ADVANCED MICRO DEVICES AM486DE2-66V8THC INTEGRATED CIRCUITS
[23:49:23] <katsmeow> you haveto keep a trickle of oil into the ac compressor, and mind you are no longer feeding it freon to keep cool inside
[23:49:32] <zhanx-> True
[23:50:17] <katsmeow> i never thought i'd see the day whe a 486 cpu could be bought at 120 pcs for $4
