00:05 rue_shop3 I unplugged all the loads
00:05 rue_shop3 :/
00:05 rue_shop3 there only is one ground
00:06 rue_shop3 these baords were all tested
00:09 rue_shop3 ARG, suddenly they all reset ok
00:26 rue_shop3 sigh
00:26 rue_shop3 this is going to be a long process
00:27 rue_shop3 a) the VERRY FIRST axis I chose, the feedback pot was connected backwards
00:27 rue_shop3 b) the impulse from the pwm trips the overloads
02:27 [HUN]lehoid_alla hi
02:41 Jak_o_Shadows hi
03:30 [HUN]lehoid_alla hi Jak_o_Shadows
12:35 armyofevilrobots Hey rue_shop3/rue_house/rue_bed; You there today? Might drop by to look at the plastic you want to cut.
12:38 myofevilrobots gonna drop by any
12:41 am789654123 thinks that sounds s
15:52 rue_house armyofevilrobots, the usb drive is loaded, the truck has a new battery and zack is somewhere in gibsons
15:52 rue_house just scarfing lunch :)
18:34 rue_shop3 armyofevilrobots, heh, I have no rush on the usb drive
18:39 armyofevilrobots Haha.
19:39 rue_shop3 looks good, but I'm glad we didn't make 300
19:39 rue_shop3 I need to remember to leave some tolerange room around device holes :)
19:39 rue_shop3 tolerance
20:02 dumbass taller ants?
20:18 armyofevilrobots @rue_shop3; oh, snug fit on the pots/posts?
20:26 rue_shop3 the meters most of all
20:26 rue_shop3 the pots, I forgot the spin lock tab hole, but that was an easy fix
20:26 rue_shop3 it looks good, I'm excited
20:26 armyofevilrobots :)
20:30 rue_shop3 table drying up ok?
21:03 armyofevilrobots Dry already. Put the heater on it.
21:11 rue_shop3 hmm I need to think of a bench power supply comm protocol
21:11 Jak_o_Shadows Is http://www.pinterest.com/pin/330240585145639560/ a decent way of storing screwdrivers?
21:12 MrCurious its pretty
21:12 MrCurious but not an efficient use of spacce
21:13 Jak_o_Shadows Is there a better way? I don't want to lie em all in a case
21:14 MrCurious i think it was the non screwdrivers that offended my waste of space sense
21:14 MrCurious my screwdrivers spend most of their lives on tables or desks or benches
21:14 Jak_o_Shadows Oh yeah. I woulnd't be putting it on pegboard either, i have a wooden cupboard I could attach the brackets to
21:14 Jak_o_Shadows So do mine, and I dislike it.
21:15 rue_shop3 I took a peice of 3x3 wood, cut it diagonally length wise to make a trianglar stip
21:15 rue_shop3 them drilled a bunch of holes in the wide edge
21:15 MrCurious i have tried cleaning them up... but i just drag them right back... so i stopped fighting the screwdrivers natural tenancies
21:15 rue_shop3 screw to wall and poke screwdriver into it
21:15 rue_shop3 magnetic strips are easy
21:16 rue_shop3 my screwdrivers sit in the wood strips pointed up at 45 degrees
21:16 rue_shop3 we painted all the handles to identify them by type
21:16 rue_shop3 er shafts, not handles
21:16 rue_shop3 red is robertson, blue is flat, red is philips, etc
21:17 Jak_o_Shadows That's clever.
21:18 Jak_o_Shadows I think I'll make the wooden strips for now, but I should buy some magnetic strips at some point
21:26 MrCurious or drill some holes in the back of each screwdriver slot, and embed a rare earth magnet with some glue
21:31 rue_shop3 the holes work better for me than magnets, I have the vise right in front of them, things get violently shaken fairly often
21:36 rue_house heh, I was just shaking water out of the spagetti strainer, thinking, "my aluminum castings have more holes than this siv"
22:42 Jak_o_Shadows yeah, I could do that.
22:42 Jak_o_Shadows But either way, one bad screwdriver rack done, and the shed is tidier

23:51 rue_shop3 I object to the standard banana post spacing, its too tight to get fingers into properly
23:52 rue_shop3 robotustra, must be in excess of 1/4" thick!
