10:11 PM Tom_L: doesn't load enough gnuc to compile
10:41 PM katsmeow: notice those 12vdc 30amp switchers have gotten upto $18 each, and more, lately? i might be able to grab one for $11.50 free s&h
10:41 PM katsmeow: someone actually put one up on auction, not buy-it-now
10:45 PM katsmeow: to win against me now, someone will haveto bid $15, and they are available for $15 as buy-now, if you know where to look
10:49 PM katsmeow: <coff>
11:22 PM katsmeow: won it for $11.50
11:41 PM rue_mohr: hi
11:42 PM rue_mohr: Tom_L, so I need to rough out a cnc design
11:42 PM katsmeow: hi
11:42 PM rue_mohr: katsmeow, I bet some idiot will do it
11:42 PM rue_mohr: I played that game a few times
11:45 PM katsmeow: do what?
11:45 PM rue_mohr: bidding such that someone would have to pay mor thant he buy-it-now price
11:45 PM rue_mohr: and they did, matter a fact, most of the time they went higher than the buy=-it-now

11:46 PM katsmeow: erg, sleeping pills kicking in early, i just tried to access a puter that wasn;t even turned on
11:46 PM rue_mohr: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/220V-2-2KW-ER20-CNC-Water-Cooling-Spindle-85mm-Metal-Spindle-2-2kw-VFD-Variable-Frequency/32435769107.html
11:46 PM rue_mohr: ali keeps offering that to me, I'm NOT gonna buy it!
11:46 PM katsmeow: no one bid, i got it for $11.50
11:46 PM rue_mohr: nice
11:47 PM katsmeow: yipes @ $555 for a motor and non-replaceable collet chuck
11:47 PM rue_mohr: I suppose I can make a water cooling jacket for a motor from PLA, cause, if it gets hot enough to melt it, something didn't work
11:49 PM katsmeow: now i wonder if it will be delivered to me
11:51 PM rue_mohr: have you ever opened up a 10 turn pot?
11:51 PM rue_mohr: klarge panel mount one
11:53 PM katsmeow: one, but not all built alike
11:54 PM rue_mohr: do they use some combination of rotating and linear sliding?
11:54 PM rue_mohr: they SOUND like a rotation on a wire wound resistor
11:55 PM rue_mohr: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/12-8-cm-motorized-fader-remote-motor-potentiometer-N-frequency-single-joint-B10K-8T/32458879036.html
11:56 PM rue_mohr: no cheap servo options there
11:56 PM katsmeow: some use a spiral element, some use a allthread and linear elemant
11:56 PM katsmeow: some use a regular pot and a friction planetary drive
11:56 PM katsmeow: those usually screw up tho
11:57 PM rue_mohr: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/BELLA-Original-Japan-ALPS-motorized-faders-12-8-cm-Single-Slide-fader-potentiometer-B10K-3/1389297065.html
11:57 PM rue_mohr: I suppose I can just make those
11:57 PM rue_mohr: the slide resistors I have, have two tracks
11:58 PM rue_mohr: one could be used for feedback
11:59 PM rue_mohr: 8-| even those resistors aren't cheap
