[04:57:14] <tinkerer> parport
[04:58:06] <tinkerer> oups... just noise
[07:51:25] <skunkworks> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QUt-7tHbgC0&feature=youtu.be
[07:52:00] <skunkworks> is it me - or does that not look anywhere near 35000mm/m (1377in/min)
[07:59:52] <pcw_home> 35000 MM/M looks about right ( maybe a second to traverse full range = 20 inches? )
[08:00:21] <archivist> looked "not slow"
[08:01:01] * archivist waits for skunkworks to get one of them to measure it
[08:01:07] <pcw_home> (though the Shapeoko probably bends quite a bit with .4 G accel)
[08:05:13] <skunkworks> ok
[08:05:51] <skunkworks> I was trying to decide if I was awake enough to figure out scale :)
[08:06:23] <skunkworks> I have an uno - which I think will run it. Just not here at the moment
[08:10:00] <skunkworks> https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/machinekit/13CyJvWyN90
[09:42:31] <ssi> 1377ipm isn't all that fast
[09:54:08] <mozmck> yeah, only 1.304mph
[09:55:30] <ssi> haha
[10:21:56] <jthornton> my ink jet is out of ink time to buy a laser printer
[10:22:09] <ssi> yeah
[10:22:17] <ssi> I haven't bought an inkjet in decades
[10:22:33] <ssi> aside from the high end photo printers
[13:35:01] <skunkworks> grbl is pretty neat for what it is.. It was pretty painless getting the arduino flashed and a gui running (picked a popular java based interface)
[13:42:28] <skunkworks> heh - trajectory planning is hard :)
[13:43:23] <skunkworks> it cornering tollerannce is set to .01mm and it seems to go over it's acceleration limits only by about 2X
[13:43:36] <skunkworks> its
[13:43:57] <skunkworks> if you set it to .1 (.0039") it goes over by 3 times +
[14:02:02] <skunkworks> default cornering tolerance (what ever that means exactly) .01mm took 10:32
[14:02:09] <skunkworks> http://electronicsam.com/images/KandT/testing/grbl/grblplot.png
[14:02:34] <skunkworks> the arduino was set to 30in/sec^2 and 500ipm
[14:02:57] <skunkworks> some plots of that run
[14:02:58] <skunkworks> http://electronicsam.com/images/KandT/testing/grbl/grblhalscope1.png
[14:03:47] <skunkworks> http://electronicsam.com/images/KandT/testing/grbl/grblhalscope2.png
[14:04:00] <skunkworks> now with the tolerance set to .1 (.0039")
[14:04:13] <skunkworks> http://electronicsam.com/images/KandT/testing/grbl/grblplothigher.png

[14:26:39] <cradek> halscope is awesome
[14:26:51] <cradek> it's extremely neat you can use it in this way
[14:27:07] <skunkworks> isn't it?
[14:27:39] <cradek> I bet that's the first time that stuff has been measured
[14:27:58] <skunkworks> probably... It is probably just therory that it works ok.
[14:28:03] <skunkworks> Theory
[14:28:29] <skunkworks> it isn't bad - that whole program ran with no hickups other than the violations. It is impressive.
[14:29:21] <skunkworks> I really need to get a decent working running average componant
[14:30:23] <skunkworks> the one I hacked together doesn't work well with zero crossing.
[14:34:32] <cradek> what if you just sample with a much slower thread?
[14:35:12] <skunkworks> that is how I am doing it now. I am ddt'ing over about 60ms
[14:35:29] <cradek> ah
[14:35:29] <skunkworks> so you get the boxcar acceleration plots.
[14:35:41] <skunkworks> I was hoping for something better
[14:39:19] <skunkworks> zlog
[14:42:12] <skunkworks> http://imagebin.ca/v/22PTVKng92NW
[14:42:27] <skunkworks> that is what the rolling average componant did at zero crossing
[14:42:45] <cradek> that looks really familiar
[15:04:26] <skunkworks> linuxcnc running it http://electronicsam.com/images/KandT/testing/grbl/linuxcnc1.png
