05:28 PM * Tom_L thinks rue_shop3 should check his channel once in a while
06:11 PM rue_: ah nice
06:12 PM rue_: .. that small hole go all the way thru?
06:13 PM rue_: vise held that ok
06:35 PM Tom_L: yeah the 1/16" hole is thru, actually they both are
06:50 PM Tom_L: vise held but it's a shitty sherline vise
06:51 PM Tom_L: that ran at 4k, 8 ipm
07:36 PM Tom_L: so what did you do today?
07:36 PM rue_bed: just woke up

07:37 PM rue_bed: visitors
07:37 PM Tom_L: mmm
07:37 PM rue_bed: 1 set of those
07:37 PM Tom_L: i'm pretty happy about the way that turned out
07:37 PM Tom_L: you want to mill it from right to left though
07:37 PM rue_bed: yes, those look good, trickey peice
07:37 PM Tom_L: or the flat one could possibly pop out of the jig
07:37 PM rue_bed: want to play odds you have the right wire?
07:38 PM rue_bed: for a spring
07:38 PM rue_bed: ah ok
07:38 PM Tom_L: i've got from #0 to #hmm 23 wire
07:38 PM Tom_L: in half sizes
07:38 PM rue_bed: .056" I think
07:39 PM Tom_L: may not have any that heavy
07:39 PM rue_bed: cant rememer the number,
07:39 PM Tom_L: but i might
07:39 PM rue_bed: I'll double check
07:39 PM rue_bed: just need my eyes to uncross
07:39 PM Tom_L: i can tell you
07:40 PM Tom_L: #24 is .055"
07:40 PM Tom_L: 25 is .059"
07:40 PM rue_bed: oo
07:40 PM Tom_L: 23 is .051"
07:41 PM rue_bed: maybe its 23
07:41 PM rue_bed: no wait, your numbers are wrong
07:41 PM rue_bed: higher numbers get smaller
07:41 PM Tom_L: my numbers are not wrong
07:41 PM Tom_L: it's piano wire
07:41 PM Tom_L: it's not standard wire gage
07:41 PM rue_bed: whaaaat, they dont follow wire guage?
07:42 PM rue_bed: of #@$%$%^!
07:42 PM rue_bed: Im gonna come up with rue wire guage, the numbers are literally out of a random number generator
07:43 PM rue_bed: ffffffffff
07:43 PM Tom_L: http://www.howardpianoindustries.com/roslau-piano-wire-sizes-12-21-1-lb-coils/
07:43 PM Tom_L: that's exactly the stuff i have
07:46 PM Tom_L: https://sizes.com/materials/wire_music.htm
07:46 PM Tom_L: that'll really screw with ya
07:56 PM rue_shop3: they only say .051"
07:56 PM rue_shop3: so its 23 then
07:56 PM Tom_L: who says .051" ?
07:56 PM rue_shop3: the box
07:56 PM rue_shop3: of wire
07:57 PM Tom_L: i might have some 23
07:57 PM Tom_L: that would be on the upper limit of what i have
07:57 PM rue_shop3: do yo have it?
07:57 PM Tom_L: i'd have to go look
07:57 PM Tom_L: and i don't have it all here anyway
07:58 PM rue_shop3: we are going to try a size larger
07:58 PM Tom_L: i'd bet what i have here would go up to about 18 or 19
07:58 PM rue_shop3: they are complaining that the springs are a bit weak compared to the origional ones
07:59 PM rue_shop3: what were the spings for?
07:59 PM rue_shop3: that you used to makje?
07:59 PM Tom_L: i wound them tight like door springs and used them to hold the expansion pipe on my model race boat
08:00 PM Tom_L: that was 100 yrs ago
08:00 PM Tom_L: i still have some of the springs though
08:00 PM rue_shop3: expansion pipe?
08:00 PM Tom_L: 2 stroke
08:00 PM Tom_L: like a motorcycle
08:00 PM rue_shop3: ok, not familiar with an expansion pipe
08:01 PM Tom_L: really?
08:01 PM rue_shop3: no
08:01 PM Tom_L: any 2 stroke race engine would have one
08:02 PM rue_shop3: maybe I just alwyas known them as a muffler...
08:02 PM Tom_L: it was a .67 cu in but put out 5hp
08:02 PM * rue_shop3 puts on his earmuffs
08:03 PM Tom_L: https://www.hobbysoulanges.com/english/bateaux/engines/ops-67/67-drv-marine-engine.html
08:04 PM Tom_L: i had mmm maybe 4 of those
08:04 PM rue_shop3: its enough power for running my mecha
08:04 PM Tom_L: that says 4.35hp
08:05 PM Tom_L: mine wasn't a drum valve though, mine was a disc
08:05 PM rue_shop3: how big is it?
08:05 PM Tom_L: my bud with the shop made rods for them
08:05 PM Tom_L: it would easily fit in the palm of your hand
08:06 PM rue_shop3: I suppose they dont like the exhaust quality of them, or they would be running cars
08:07 PM rue_shop3: ok, the idea is for me to go get more stuff from the hospital, and work, and meet up with my buddy having all the strokes
08:08 PM Tom_L: we ran 40 - 60% nitro in them
08:13 PM * Tom_L goes for a nap
08:50 PM rue_shop3: I should make another NC program for a drill guage
08:50 PM rue_shop3: maybe I could dual-tool it and engrave the sizes
09:24 PM Tom_L: why do you need a drill gage?
09:24 PM Tom_L: there are charts for that
09:27 PM Tom_L: so that slot didn't break thru that hole
09:27 PM Tom_L: was it supposed to?
09:35 PM rue_: all holes 100% thru
09:36 PM rue_: oh, our slot cuts half way thru that small hole
09:36 PM rue_: but the part looks ok, so I dunno
09:37 PM Tom_L: but you cut them different
09:38 PM Tom_L: i'll probably send you a couple
09:39 PM Tom_L: i still have a few to run and test
09:39 PM rue_: you have a small lathe dont ya?
09:40 PM rue_: show you how we made the mandrill for winding the springs
09:40 PM rue_: they are 2 turns, which spring-back 1/4 turn
09:58 PM Tom_L: yeah i've got an old lathe
10:36 PM Tom_L: how is A8 different than C3?
10:36 PM Tom_L: you sent me C3 also but i think it's for a different model
11:00 PM katsmeow: do i really want any DS34C86 for fast long distance twisted pair?
11:22 PM Tom_L: dunno what it is
11:22 PM katsmeow: dual-pair differential recievers
11:23 PM Tom_L: no idea
11:23 PM Tom_L: i think rue went shopping
11:23 PM katsmeow: 200mv threshold, 7v offset capable, maybe 10Mhz
11:24 PM katsmeow: i bid $10 for 2400 of them <shrug>
11:25 PM katsmeow: cmos version of the DS3486
11:26 PM katsmeow: ok, i goto bed, gnites
