02:19 PM CaptHindsight[m]: a little buggy as well, I know they are talking about lots of cleanups
02:20 PM CaptHindsight[m]: make the code easier to debug, at least for Path

05:54 PM CaptHindsight[m]: running right now on the Ryzen3 the preempt-rt is at 40uS
05:54 PM CaptHindsight[m]: been running for the past few hours
05:54 PM JT-Cave: that's pretty good
05:55 PM CaptHindsight[m]: with youtubes playing for an hour
05:58 PM CaptHindsight[m]: now the fun begins, attaching them to actual mechanisms
05:59 PM CaptHindsight[m]: there are several more videos on youtube about building epoxy granite machine frames
06:00 PM CaptHindsight[m]: gave me an idea of how to dumb it down to make it more foolproof
06:01 PM CaptHindsight[m]: you really can't expect people to mill the rails square and flat after it sets

06:53 PM t4nk_freenode: my 'machine' is patched up again ;)
06:54 PM t4nk_freenode: I printed a new top fan for the spindle too... the original one is horribly out of balance
06:56 PM t4nk_freenode: the new one will surely have a better air flow, though I hope I can get it on there straight
07:05 PM t4nk_freenode: it was kind of nice to see where all the hurt went, from all the accidents and crashes the machine ha
07:05 PM t4nk_freenode: d
07:06 PM t4nk_freenode: it also probably shows why it will be only a matter of time before it gets sloppy again
