01:07 AM rue_shop1: hey
01:12 AM zhanx: so the wifi router is missing the power cord
01:12 AM zhanx: and nothing i have fits it
01:12 AM zhanx: and this "unlimited" is 25gb of data at full speeds (LTE) then 3g after that
01:12 AM zhanx: so its still working but slower I guess
01:18 AM rue_shop1: its cell!?
01:18 AM rue_shop1: ick...
01:19 AM rue_shop1: its something tho!
01:19 AM rue_shop1: what power does it need?
01:19 AM zhanx: well the plan was cell to server, server to wifi
01:19 AM zhanx: server and cell in a different area for height
01:20 AM zhanx: so tomorrow I will run a hard line to the server so this computer has something
01:20 AM zhanx: also it was cell or sat
01:21 AM zhanx: rue_shop1, the bonus is, its only 45 a month
01:21 AM rue_shop1: k
01:26 AM rue_shop1: ugh, I need that link again
01:27 AM zhanx: http://tom-itx.no-ip.biz:81/~webpage/avr/c_bits/K&R_C_2nd.pdf <-that one?
01:28 AM rue_shop1: no the ungooglable one , it was up there
01:28 AM rue_shop1: whats a minute in 1/16000000 of a second
01:34 AM zhanx: a long time
01:35 AM rue_shop1: damnit
01:36 AM rue_shop1: can I even put 3456M in a 32bit int?
01:37 AM zhanx: why would you want to?
01:37 AM rue_shop1: so I can get the value I need
01:37 AM * zhanx looks at the tilt ball toy memory table
01:38 AM rue_shop1: 9223372036854775807
01:38 AM rue_shop1: yes
01:38 AM zhanx: what are you working on? I leave for work, come back to rue being out there
01:38 AM rue_shop1: bandsaw speedometer
01:39 AM rue_shop1: with a tack that measures the wheel in 1/6 rotations on a ref clk of 16Mhz
02:12 AM rue_shop1: damnit, the code can only read the blade speed up to 0.5 mach
02:12 AM zhanx: only
02:12 AM rue_shop1: oh, no it CAN go up to mach 1
02:13 AM zhanx: its not a water jet
02:13 AM rue_shop1: dude
02:13 AM rue_shop1: the linux way is to not impose limits if they need not be imposed
02:14 AM rue_shop1: if you want to flip a 1 sided dice, its not an issue, no errors or complaints
02:14 AM zhanx: true
02:14 AM zhanx: i want to see a one sided dice
02:15 AM rue_shop1: as you rotate it, the same side keeps going by }:]
02:15 AM zhanx: lol
02:15 AM rue_shop1: not printed the same, IT IS THE SAME SIDE
02:15 AM rue_shop1: so I suppose it can only be rotated 180 degrees physically
02:16 AM zhanx: till it cuts the plane its on
02:20 AM rue_shop1: maybe I'm up too late, that though is totally phycadellic
02:21 AM zhanx: i took a good nap, not i regret it, i could have taken the wifi router back instead
02:22 AM rue_shop1: I wonder if at 16k feet/min the display should switch to mach
02:22 AM zhanx: you could but it would only be for you
02:25 AM zhanx: ok aliexpress order done
03:17 AM rue_shop1: so over 65200feet/min I just display "Over Mach 1"
03:17 AM zhanx: you need to play the top gun theme song also then
03:21 AM rue_shop1: 1 pulse 16M ticks 60 seconds 1 rev 43.2inch 1 foot
03:21 AM rue_shop1: ------- x ---------- x ----------- x --------- x ---------- x ---------
03:21 AM rue_shop1: N ticks 1 second 1 minute 6 pulse 1 rev 12 inch
03:21 AM rue_shop1: math beat me up on it
03:21 AM rue_shop1: answer is 576M/n
03:23 AM rue_shop1: k
03:23 AM zhanx: yea my brain said no on that
03:24 AM rue_shop1: I kinda had to do it backwards and inside out
03:24 AM rue_shop1: so, what speed do I want to run a metal blade?
03:26 AM rue_shop1: Al ~ 1000fpm
03:26 AM rue_shop1: Fe ~ 100fpm
03:27 AM zhanx: presets with a dial to move it
03:27 AM rue_shop1: oh its a change-the-belt machine
03:27 AM zhanx: darn
03:28 AM rue_shop1: it does not have a chart and I dont want to moof with working it out
03:28 AM rue_shop1: so, speedometer
03:28 AM zhanx: k
03:28 AM rue_shop1: I wouldn't do it if someone else weren't either
03:39 AM rue_shop1: https://www.starrett.com/docs/other-downloadable-resources/band-saw-blade-reference-guide
03:42 AM zhanx: rue_shop1, so i found out today this place I am renting cost 65k to taxpayers
03:42 AM rue_shop1: ?
03:42 AM rue_shop1: you mean for the property owner?
03:42 AM rue_shop1: or a govt thing?
03:43 AM zhanx: its a 40 foot container, with a very nice interior, govt thing
03:43 AM zhanx: full bath, half kitchen, etc
03:43 AM rue_shop1: ah
03:43 AM rue_shop1: modified seacan?
03:43 AM zhanx: basically
03:44 AM zhanx: only thing i had to add was a tv and my stuff
03:46 AM zhanx: rue_shop1, it is nicer than some apartments
03:47 AM zhanx: but its 400 sq ft
03:48 AM rue_mohr: not for much more than living
03:48 AM zhanx: yep
03:48 AM zhanx: not meant to be more also tho
03:51 AM zhanx: been looking for land to get
03:53 AM rue_mohr: different prices from your other area I'd imagine
03:53 AM zhanx: yep
03:53 AM rue_mohr: higher? lower?
03:53 AM zhanx: way higher
03:54 AM zhanx: was told an area to look where its way cheap today, so i will start that monday, 500 an acre
03:55 AM rue_mohr: here is 1M/acre
03:55 AM zhanx: wow
03:55 AM rue_mohr: I got this half at 275?
03:55 AM rue_mohr: its over 500 now
03:59 AM rue_mohr: I wonder if that entry will land me a prize
03:59 AM rue_mohr: I think my odds are good, lots of those entries aren't really about metalworking
03:59 AM zhanx: its featured, i saw
04:00 AM zhanx: surprised me on that
04:00 AM rue_mohr: yea, they told me that
04:00 AM rue_mohr: it was a lot of work to write up!
04:00 AM zhanx: I think, i need to enter the forge now
04:00 AM rue_mohr: and even then, could have used a lot more work
04:00 AM zhanx: for the tools it can make
04:01 AM rue_mohr: I will probably put more on their site, might as well offload what I can from my site
04:01 AM rue_mohr: more exposure
04:01 AM zhanx: true make them pay for it
04:04 AM rue_mohr: http://ruemohr.org/~ircjunk/tutorials/elex/flash_howto/flash_howto.htm
04:04 AM rue_mohr: heh, forgot about that
04:05 AM rue_mohr: watching the hits on the webserver, someone pulled it up and I couldn't remember what it really was
04:05 AM zhanx: i remember that
04:05 AM zhanx: that ranks up with your ISA programmer for AVR's
04:05 AM rue_mohr: hehe
04:06 AM zhanx: you know that was a work of art
04:06 AM rue_mohr: heh, its just a trick to get to an isa bus
04:06 AM rue_mohr: odd, so that howto
04:07 AM rue_mohr: it must have been written by me, but its not my content
04:07 AM zhanx: why does openscad have such issues with descending spirals
04:07 AM rue_mohr: or images
04:07 AM rue_mohr: heh
04:07 AM zhanx: i need a 5 foot radius, 1 foot shelf. 12:1 grade
04:08 AM zhanx: easy
04:08 AM zhanx: no
04:08 AM rue_mohr: hu?
04:09 AM zhanx: spiral down, 1 foot wide, 12" run for 1" drop
04:09 AM rue_mohr: carefull, you will end up with that superreactor I came up with years ago
04:09 AM zhanx: rather it just work
04:11 AM zhanx: i know what it should be but its not doing it off the same math. I might have to update it
04:11 AM rue_mohr: ma wants to sell her place and use the money for me building a new house
04:11 AM rue_mohr: ok, eeeeek
04:13 AM zhanx: i drop 1" every 2.5 feet, with a 1 foot shelf etc
04:13 AM zhanx: the 2.5 vs 12 is due to the curve
04:14 AM zhanx: at 5.708 feet i should be at bottom with the curve and wall
04:15 AM zhanx: wait typing that out, I am wrong
04:15 AM rue_mohr: why dont you do it in a 2d cad and extrude it in openscad
04:16 AM zhanx: i should, thanks
04:16 AM zhanx: forest for the trees
04:16 AM rue_mohr: peoples persistence to harm themselvs trying to do things strictly in openscad astounds me
04:16 AM rue_mohr: everything I do is based on 2d extrusions
04:16 AM zhanx: i like openscad cause is just code, etc
04:17 AM zhanx: its the base for the cement print thing i am making
04:18 AM zhanx: its sloped down at 12:1 and a slope to the edges at 45 degrees
04:18 AM rue_mohr: 2am
04:19 AM rue_mohr: aluminum artwork to make and sell online, or code a water-dispencer for the kitchen (timer, something like 375ml/second)
04:28 AM zhanx: rue_mohr, 5.708 is right, i was looking at it and forgetting its not feet deep but inches
08:56 AM rue_mohr: k
08:56 AM rue_mohr: I'v not slept yet
09:00 AM rue_mohr: https://www.instructables.com/id/Greensand-Aluminum-Casting
10:36 AM Tom_L: it will be clearer when you do
10:37 AM Tom_L: typo... an should be and in the instructable
10:37 AM Tom_L: 2nd paragraph
10:42 AM Tom_L: good one though!
03:09 PM rue_mohr: ouch, I was up till 7am

07:45 PM rue_mohr: http://ruemohr.org/~ircjunk/tempimage/p1130686.jpg
07:46 PM Tom_L: generic saleae?
07:46 PM rue_mohr: yup
07:46 PM rue_mohr: picked up a few
07:47 PM rue_mohr: afer the first one made me realize that they are much more handy than a scope for doing microcontroller stuff
07:47 PM Tom_L: what all does it do?
07:48 PM Tom_L: just digital?
07:48 PM Tom_L: some of their $$$ ones do analog too
07:48 PM Tom_L: yeah i got a real one and fell in love with it
07:49 PM rue_mohr: 8 channels of digital acpture at up to 24Mhz
07:49 PM Tom_L: ebay?
07:49 PM rue_mohr: ali
07:49 PM Tom_L: mine is 8 iirc
07:49 PM rue_mohr: BUT the timing between channels is a bit dodgy at high speeds
07:49 PM Tom_L: one of their first ones so i dunno how fast it is
07:49 PM rue_mohr: noticed it while playing with edge detectors
07:49 PM Tom_L: it tells me what i need to know
07:50 PM rue_mohr: super handy for digital stuff,
07:50 PM rue_mohr: being that my scope is analog
07:50 PM Tom_L: so is mine
07:50 PM Tom_L: haven't had it out in ages
07:51 PM rue_mohr: i'v even done things as mondane as checking rotary encoders
07:51 PM rue_mohr: some of those china ones are REALLY noisy
07:51 PM Tom_L: i did the relay timing on my spindle reverse relays so that they broke before making the opposite direction
07:52 PM rue_mohr: :)
07:52 PM Tom_L: ali express or alibaba?
07:52 PM rue_mohr: express is all I use
07:52 PM rue_mohr: alibaba is for big orders
07:52 PM Tom_L: oh
07:52 PM rue_mohr: people who want 60000 brass caps ;)
07:53 PM Tom_L: what did you pay?
07:53 PM rue_mohr: digdigdig
07:54 PM Tom_L: i like the nice case saleae has too
07:55 PM rue_mohr: $12CAD
07:55 PM rue_mohr: er no
07:55 PM Tom_L: so $Free US?
07:55 PM rue_mohr: $5 CAD, and I bought two with some shipping
07:56 PM rue_mohr: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32839447235.html
07:56 PM rue_mohr: likley the same one
07:58 PM Tom_L: do they send software with it or just tell you to use someone else's?
07:58 PM Tom_L: i know the comments say saleae...
07:58 PM rue_mohr: I use the legit salee software
07:58 PM rue_mohr: but I needed the 32 bit version, which took a bit of a dig
07:58 PM Tom_L: just curious how they sell it
07:59 PM rue_mohr: it doesn't come with it
07:59 PM Tom_L: i wouldn't think so
08:00 PM rue_mohr: wow, today vaporized
08:00 PM rue_mohr: I was gonan go buy some concrete
08:01 PM Tom_L: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000069005857.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.20f028b35Ywigu&algo_pvid=0feb2f9b-10fc-4f0e-b3c6-26e0d41362bf&algo_expid=0feb2f9b-10fc-4f0e-b3c6-26e0d41362bf-7&btsid=b88f990d-73c8-4ba8-9618-6861fdf71119&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_3,searchweb201603_53

11:21 PM Tom_L: there may already be one
11:24 PM RonoldoMoon: BLAMMO!
11:24 PM RonoldoMoon: who says ARPA net is dead!?
11:24 PM Tom_L: https://opencores.org/projects/a-z80
11:25 PM Tom_L: there are actually quite a few
11:26 PM RonoldoMoon: wow
11:27 PM zhanx: ok on the good internets right now
11:28 PM rue_mohr: heh
11:28 PM rue_mohr: Tom_L, apparently he's making this one really accurate
11:29 PM rue_mohr: RonoldoMoon, what are you up to then?
11:29 PM RonoldoMoon: listening to music with my crystal radio ear bud
11:29 PM RonoldoMoon: just the bud
11:29 PM rue_mohr: zhanx, did you catch I did another instructable?
11:29 PM zhanx: nope was wiring stuff up etc
11:30 PM rue_mohr: RonoldoMoon, hmm, what frequency?
11:30 PM RonoldoMoon: forget doing an instructable, work on sharing an inconcievabke
11:30 PM rue_mohr: I wonder if I can shoot you some rammenstien from here
11:30 PM RonoldoMoon: no ramstien :P
11:30 PM rue_mohr: how far do you think you are?
11:31 PM RonoldoMoon: 5 feet?
11:31 PM rue_mohr: from here...
11:31 PM rue_mohr: what freq?
11:31 PM rue_mohr: like 580Khz?
11:31 PM RonoldoMoon: ha just the ear bud no radio
11:32 PM RonoldoMoon: hmmmmm
11:32 PM RonoldoMoon: i dunno
11:32 PM rue_mohr: oh
11:32 PM rue_mohr: well, it would have to be a dangeously strong signal, I wont bother
11:32 PM RonoldoMoon: you tlkin bout my distance in wavelength?
11:33 PM rue_mohr: doesn't matter if your not on an AM radio
11:33 PM RonoldoMoon: :P
11:33 PM rue_mohr: ok, what am I doing, I'm waitng for two printers
11:33 PM RonoldoMoon: you got TX ????
11:33 PM rue_mohr: why am I not waiting for 4
11:34 PM rue_mohr: I have an old tube signal generator that has a modulation input }:]
11:34 PM rue_mohr: I used to use it to drown out the neighbours radio when they were being highly annoying.
11:34 PM RonoldoMoon: oh well thats the audio --->>> mod
11:34 PM RonoldoMoon: ??
11:34 PM rue_mohr: am is just modulated rf
11:34 PM RonoldoMoon: cool
11:35 PM rue_mohr: I think it goes to about 430Mhz
11:35 PM RonoldoMoon: John Martyn - May You Never.mp3
11:35 PM RonoldoMoon: you tube
11:35 PM rue_mohr: zhanx, the instructable is on how I did the casting
11:36 PM zhanx: got it
11:36 PM rue_mohr: haha beat me
11:37 PM zhanx: i have REAL Internets again
11:37 PM rue_mohr: ah good!
11:37 PM rue_mohr: RonoldoMoon, https://www.instructables.com/id/Greensand-Aluminum-Casting/
11:37 PM rue_mohr: for the record
11:37 PM rue_mohr: wow, 102 views!
11:37 PM zhanx: was that 3d printed?
11:37 PM rue_mohr: I didn't put it in the comp casue I dont think you can have more than one entry
11:38 PM rue_mohr: well, its 3d printed with a cheater disc
11:38 PM rue_mohr: casue, save plastic
11:38 PM zhanx: k
11:38 PM RonoldoMoon: good first pic
11:39 PM zhanx: rue got burnt too by learning to cast :) now i don't feel so bad
11:39 PM rue_mohr: maybe the holding arm would have faired beter if the cover pic for it were with it holding a chainsaw
11:39 PM rue_mohr: zhanx, your a fast read...
11:40 PM RonoldoMoon: rue_mohr: Hey I cut my floors outa my beetle today

11:40 PM rue_mohr: I gave you that one
11:40 PM zhanx: no you didn't you gave me a pile of slide.htm links
11:40 PM rue_mohr: well you didn't have proper internet
11:41 PM rue_mohr: I'm sure I shortcut it for ya
11:41 PM zhanx: you didn't but its all good now
11:41 PM rue_mohr: http://ruemohr.org/~ircjunk/projects/smelter/p1130466.jpg
11:41 PM rue_mohr: http://ruemohr.org/~ircjunk/projects/smelter/p1130467.jpg
11:41 PM zhanx: saw that one
11:42 PM rue_mohr: http://ruemohr.org/~ircjunk/projects/smelter/p1130468.jpg
11:42 PM rue_mohr: http://ruemohr.org/~ircjunk/projects/smelter/p1130469.jpg
11:42 PM rue_mohr: http://ruemohr.org/~ircjunk/projects/smelter/p1130470.jpg
11:42 PM zhanx: prefect thank you
11:42 PM rue_mohr: http://ruemohr.org/~ircjunk/projects/smelter/p1130471.jpg
11:42 PM rue_mohr: http://ruemohr.org/~ircjunk/projects/smelter/p1130472.jpg
11:42 PM zhanx: ok good, i can see how you made it
11:42 PM rue_mohr: that SHOULD be everything you need to almost exactly make one
11:42 PM rue_mohr: its sprinkler pipe
11:43 PM zhanx: k
11:43 PM zhanx: I got 3 irrigation pipe i think.
11:43 PM rue_mohr: k
11:44 PM zhanx: I had to cheat on the wifi cell crap the wifi router is out of stock, so I am hooked to a laptop and sharing the wifi via that to everything else
11:44 PM rue_mohr: yup
11:45 PM zhanx: so who knows when I will get a power cord for it and not spending more money on something they misshipped
11:45 PM rue_mohr: ???
11:45 PM rue_mohr: you still dont ahve the cord?
11:45 PM zhanx: nope
11:45 PM RonoldoMoon: Gnight all XD
11:45 PM rue_mohr: ... your... you, what is so special about the cord?
11:45 PM zhanx: i was tempted to soldier right to the circuit board trust me
11:46 PM zhanx: its a 3 prong custom job or something. its tiny
11:46 PM zhanx: i can do the 12v 2.5 amps it needs, but I paid for the right stuff and they have to send it to me
11:47 PM rue_mohr: k
11:49 PM zhanx: thing is rue, I bought it, the thing should of have a power cord with it
11:50 PM zhanx: but whatever I am up and running now
11:56 PM rue_mohr: I agree
11:56 PM rue_mohr: the connector is the snag, if It was a barrel connector, I wouldn't let you life it down
11:56 PM rue_mohr: live
11:56 PM rue_mohr: hmm I'm having low level word errors
11:56 PM rue_mohr: mismappings
11:57 PM zhanx: if it was a barrel connector I would have solved it
11:58 PM Tom_L: that's just to grab the crucible right?
11:58 PM Tom_L: does it need to be that tall?
11:59 PM zhanx: tom that is to pour into
11:59 PM zhanx: so he uses less sand
