05:40 PM rifraf: thoughts? https://i.imgur.com/Hc8torC.png
05:41 PM rifraf: can have the small QC post set inline with larger one or set back 20mm from larger one
05:47 PM Tom_L: not sure what all is goin on there but looks versatile
05:47 PM Tom_L: time for supper too...
05:47 PM Tom_L: bbl
05:48 PM rifraf: https://imgur.com/a/N9PboUs
05:48 PM rifraf: to use up a second QC tool post
05:49 PM rifraf: i could keep a cut off tool mounted, is to save toolchanges
05:50 PM rifraf: and doubles as a mounting point for a bar feedin gripper while just using the larger toolpost
06:29 PM rue_mohr: kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkki

11:28 PM rue_mohr: ok rue, now make one
11:37 PM rifraf: did that soo many years ago already rue
11:37 PM rifraf: didn't you make one as well, for motion tracking with little steppers
11:38 PM rifraf: just did another 5 hyoles with electro vice, has done every hole needed in last 20
11:38 PM rifraf: is funny with very small pieces though, that only touch one part of the magnet
11:39 PM rifraf: but easy fixed with any other piece of handy metal to virtually extend it for magnatism purposes, very cool gadget
11:40 PM rifraf: rue_mohr thoughts on the double quickstop head?
11:40 PM rifraf: nearly have the parts ready to weld up
11:41 PM rue_shop2: yea yea
11:41 PM rue_shop2: no
11:41 PM rue_shop2: I didn't make one
11:41 PM rue_shop2: double quickstop?
11:42 PM rifraf: quickchange sorry https://imgur.com/a/N9PboUs

11:43 PM rue_shop2: oh neat
11:43 PM rue_shop2: we have to find you a proper image host
11:43 PM rue_shop2: takes longer for the ads to load than your image
11:43 PM rue_shop2: and then all the popups and junk
11:43 PM rifraf: ok i never see the ads
11:43 PM rifraf: ok find one and will test
11:43 PM rue_shop2: yea, I'm not enguaged with the adware war
11:44 PM rifraf: guess my blocker must be working
11:44 PM rue_shop2: :]
11:44 PM rifraf: with the large tool post weight 3.2kg now
11:45 PM rifraf: and only 1.2kg more cantalevered off the end could help stability , will have to find out
11:45 PM rifraf: and a place to hook a gripper one for bar pulling
11:46 PM rifraf: so will have nearly 5kg on the tool heads, i think should help things with the extra mass
11:46 PM rifraf: currently about 1.6kg for the small quick change only, and with the spindle upgrade may as well add this one into the picture now
11:47 PM rue_shop2: low accel :]
11:47 PM rifraf: will be easy to index both tools, one exactly 60mm away in x from other one, and can set one back if required
11:47 PM rifraf: the X moves so slow it doesnt matter
11:48 PM rifraf: X Y Z all max out at less than 2000mm/min full speed
11:50 PM rue_shop2: I wish those digital servos were affordable
11:50 PM rifraf: i thought they were all the same now
11:50 PM rue_shop2: no
