01:49 AM Joco[m]: gosh - they looking like chickens not chicks
01:56 AM TurBoss: morning Joco
01:56 AM Joco[m]: hi TurBoss
01:57 AM Joco[m]: I've been mapping out my surface grinder table . It's needing some TLC. I can see why the previous owner had shims under the mag chuck.

01:58 AM TurBoss: oh!
01:59 AM Joco[m]: I don't think he ever surfaced the table.
02:01 AM Joco[m]: * I don't think he ever surfaced the table. Measurements all in mm
07:23 AM * JT-Cave has not got the dotstar to work yet :(
09:03 AM hazzy-m: Lcvette: did the earthquake this morning effect you any? We felt it here ...
09:18 AM roguish[m]: hazzy: quakes are fun........
09:18 AM roguish[m]: rock and roll
09:26 AM hazzy-m: roguish: Sometimes too much rock and roll!
09:26 AM hazzy-m: When I was little a quake decided to try out the steel dobro with AL billet neck that was hanging on the wall at the foot of my bed. The amount of noise that ensued as it fell traumatized me for life

09:37 AM JT[m]: at least it works with a nano
10:05 AM roguish[m]: hazzy: this was my neighborhood. my apartment only 3 blocks away...............https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jhc8Os8Hfo
01:54 PM roguish[m]: hazzy: check it out. best place to see quakes https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/map/?currentFeatureId=nc73440256&extent=13.45374,-132.49512&extent=56.99288,-57.52441

03:37 PM Joco[m]: bright
03:38 PM JT-Cave: not sure what value that was at, it goes from dim to bright now
03:38 PM Joco[m]: nice. I'm still getting brain engaged for a Monday morning. On to coffee #2
03:48 PM JT-Cave: need to get the SPI working on the Rpi next at least I know the DotStar Strip works

03:52 PM hazzy-m: Umm, I don't think that's supposed to be water...
03:53 PM JT-Cave: that draining out of the crankcase?
03:55 PM hazzy-m: Yes...
03:55 PM JT-Cave: rut row
03:55 PM Joco[m]: That’s not good
03:55 PM Joco[m]: Even I know that
03:56 PM hazzy-m: It's been sitting, so I'm hoping it's just worked it's way in, but I'm thinking it might be a blown head gasket, or maybe a crack case :(
03:56 PM Joco[m]: Compression test would show blown gasket?
03:57 PM JT-Cave: also if the coolant level is lower than normal that's a sign
03:57 PM hazzy-m: yes, but the other issue is I can't get it to turn over, not even budge
03:57 PM * JT-Cave is going to make a giant mushroom from a bit of slab wood
03:57 PM Joco[m]: JT that sounds cool
03:57 PM JT-Cave: ouch that sucks
03:57 PM hazzy-m: JT-Cave: yeah, the radiator was dry, which is concerning
03:57 PM Joco[m]: On the wood lathe?
03:58 PM JT-Cave: too big for my wood lathe, going to chainsaw it up
03:58 PM JT-Cave: need the base to be big enough and heavy so the chickens won't turn it over
03:59 PM JT-Cave: hmm I have an idea...
03:59 PM Joco[m]: better you than me. Chainsaws give me the hebbie geebies. But you got the hours under your belt on them I’m guessing.
03:59 PM JT-Cave: yeah, I've been hanging onto the end of a chainsaw for a long long time
04:02 PM JT-Cave: I figured Oregon makes sculptor chains
08:57 PM Joco[m]: ahh crap. I've blown the windings on the coolant pump motor
08:57 PM Joco[m]: got a short to grown
08:57 PM Joco[m]: F
09:19 PM hazzy-m: oh no!
09:19 PM hazzy-m: bad insulation?
09:20 PM Joco[m]: been trying to test it and had it running on 400V off the VFD. Think the bearings stuck and it over currented.
09:21 PM Joco[m]: the pump was probably 15 years old, or more. Heck if it was new with the machine it's 40 yrs
09:21 PM Joco[m]: I'll replace with a 240V single phase unit. Will make the wiring simpler as well
09:22 PM Joco[m]: just annoying. No point trying to fix it. A new one will cost be about $170NZD and it will cost more than that to have it looked at and fixed
09:23 PM Joco[m]: And it will still have shot bearings
10:12 PM Joco[m]: Found a pump for $155NZD. 1/8 HP, 240V single phase. Asked some questions and a shipping estimate. Fingers crossed.
10:13 PM Joco[m]: 25 litres/min. It’s got plenty of ohm.
10:13 PM Joco[m]: * 25 litres/min. It’s got plenty of oomph
10:33 PM hazzy-m: perfect!
10:35 PM Joco[m]: yup. Will make the wiring simpler as well.
10:35 PM Joco[m]: $19NZD shipping. Going to get one.
