08:36 AM Tom_L: morning
09:40 AM rue_mohr: ouch
09:40 AM rue_mohr: I had shot#2 yesterday and EVERYTHING aches
11:17 AM Tom_L: workin or takin it easy?
11:17 AM Tom_L: trust me, it's better than the alternative :)
04:45 PM rue_mohr: oh I cant work like this
04:45 PM rue_mohr: Ihave a splitting headache
04:52 PM Tom_L: it turned today
04:52 PM rue_mohr: oh good show
04:52 PM Tom_L: the stepper at least
04:52 PM rue_mohr: what was the error you were having?
04:52 PM Tom_L: angular units vs linear
04:53 PM Tom_L: had to change some numbers
04:53 PM Tom_L: it's getting better but not there yet
04:53 PM Tom_L: i hope the stepper i'm using is strong enough, it may not be
05:35 PM rue_mohr: ?
05:35 PM rue_mohr: it shouldn't take much force
05:35 PM rue_mohr: or do you have to have it locked a bit for backlash?
05:44 PM Tom_L: the stepper isn't big enough
05:45 PM Tom_L: those are the ones off the last sherline update
05:45 PM rue_mohr: hmm
05:45 PM rue_mohr: how much torqe does it need!
05:45 PM Tom_L: more than that
06:00 PM Tom_L: i don't think i have all the settings right yet either
06:10 PM Tom_L: got a 570 on the way
08:17 PM rue_mohr: :)
08:17 PM rue_mohr: the ball is rolling
08:59 PM aandrew: rue_bed2: that sucks about shot2
08:59 PM aandrew: all my shots did was make my arm hurt a bit for a few days
09:01 PM rue_mohr: so turns out I probably have a genetic B12 problem
09:01 PM Tom_L: doesn't sound so good
09:01 PM rue_mohr: which I think explains it, as there was mention that people with high levels of B walked it off
09:01 PM Tom_L: i was getting b12 shots when i was down and it helped alot
09:02 PM rue_mohr: yea
09:02 PM rue_mohr: if I do have it, my system cant absorb B12
09:02 PM aandrew: my wife gets B injections regularly
09:02 PM Tom_L: these are water soluable so you only keep what you can use
09:02 PM aandrew: basically a iv with a bunch of B in it
09:03 PM Tom_L: reddish color?
09:03 PM aandrew: orangeish-yellow IIRC
09:03 PM rue_mohr: Tom_L, remember kat said to help me with my energy issue I should take Bcomplex and asa?
09:03 PM rue_mohr: and it usually worked?
09:03 PM Tom_L: complex won't help this i don't think
09:03 PM rue_mohr: the complex I take has 500mg of B12
09:03 PM aandrew: rue_bed2: I take a B complex every morning. I find if I don't do it for a while I feel laggy/shitty, but if I take it consistently I don't really notice how I feel
09:04 PM rue_mohr: over the last week, I'v worked out I should probably bump up the amount I'm taking
09:04 PM Tom_L: i'm still loading up on vitamins
09:04 PM rue_mohr: If I dont take a Bcomplex at almost exactly 2:00 I cant stay awake after work, not a hope in hell
09:05 PM aandrew: every day for me is 2000IU D, 500mg B complex, then my meth and PPI, but I will cycle on and off the meth about twice a week
09:05 PM Tom_L: D3, B12, airborne, and my regular ones
09:05 PM rue_mohr: ?
09:06 PM Tom_L: airborne is c
09:06 PM rue_mohr: the medical system is a joke, I'm getting fed up with the guess & medicate without proving or testing anything
09:07 PM rue_mohr: I'v become quite frustrated
09:08 PM rue_mohr: I think it should be a strict requirement that a doctor learn the proper process of diagnosing a problem
09:08 PM Tom_L: i avoid them
09:08 PM Tom_L: they're just drug pushers
09:09 PM Tom_L: then you get too many goin and they fight each other
09:09 PM rue_mohr: a drug might be a solution to an issue, but you have to prove and understand the issue first
09:11 PM rue_mohr: theJester had to be recucitated twice ultimitly becasue his doctor said his self-diagnosis was "too rare"
09:11 PM rue_mohr: turned out he was right
09:11 PM rue_mohr: multiple strokes later he's a mess
09:11 PM Tom_L: yeah you told me he wasn't doin good
09:12 PM rue_mohr: and he wont file for malpractise becasue he has no beleif he will win
09:13 PM rue_mohr: the doctor should have just sent him in for a damn test
09:13 PM Tom_L: if you don't file you sure won't
09:13 PM rue_mohr: he would have been ok
09:13 PM rue_mohr: he wont do it
09:13 PM rue_mohr: he's crawled into a hole and has no interest in comming out
09:13 PM rue_mohr: he cant talk, his left side doesn't work
09:13 PM Tom_L: that's too bad
09:14 PM rue_mohr: he had a brutal life from the start too, grew up poor as hell
09:14 PM rue_mohr: he was really into electronics, the schools hooked us up
09:15 PM rue_mohr: but he was a bit too "I want to be with you every second of every day" phoned me like 8 times a day
09:15 PM rue_mohr: I went a bit nuts and didn't want to talk to him anymore
09:16 PM rue_mohr: years later we hooked back up
09:16 PM rue_mohr: he was still interested in it, but didn't know all the stuff I could have taught him
09:16 PM Tom_L: that's good you still talk
09:16 PM rue_mohr: which I feel pretty bad about
09:17 PM rue_mohr: havn't in a long time, he moved out to powell river
09:17 PM Tom_L: oh
09:17 PM rue_mohr: I called him a few times but he would rather not talk cause he get frustrated trying to put sentences togethor
09:18 PM Tom_L: yeah
09:19 PM rue_mohr: I'm not doing awesome trying to make this power converter for the driveway lights
09:19 PM rue_mohr: my goal is a royer oscillator that runs on 70VDC
09:19 PM rue_mohr: sounds easy enough right?
09:20 PM rue_mohr: I have a 50w core from some track lighting, I only need about 20w
09:20 PM Tom_L: how come you didn't run mains out there and do it there?
09:20 PM rue_mohr: but the design I'm using cant fit all the windings
09:21 PM rue_mohr: heh, it shouldn't need it :)
09:21 PM rue_mohr: I'd have had to run two conduits too, cause I wanted lv signalling back
09:22 PM rue_mohr: I have a 50V transformer I can put at the top of the yard
09:22 PM rue_mohr: the run is 2 ohms
09:23 PM rue_mohr: so I should see about 8V loss max
09:23 PM rue_mohr: er no
09:23 PM rue_mohr: 0.8
09:24 PM rue_mohr: I'll rectify it at the bottom and regulated dc-dc convert it to 12
09:25 PM rue_mohr: but I'm having a hard time getting the transformer right
09:25 PM rue_mohr: the math says I should be fine too
09:25 PM rue_mohr: 50 turns primary, 10 turns secondary, 5 turns feedback
09:26 PM rue_mohr: the feedback might be wrong, its designed for 7V,
09:26 PM rue_mohr: lots of designs use 3-4
09:26 PM rue_mohr: V
