00:11 rue_more 3d printer
00:11 kng_stupid does not know the appropriate responce for
00:12 fckng_stupid this is irc,,,, so,,, are any parts red or pink?
00:12 rue_more rif has pink elephants
00:12 rue_more I only have black and green
00:12 kng_stupid laughs at
00:13 fckng_stupid (sorry Rif, it's required behavior on irc)
00:13 kng_stupid doesn't even see Rif
00:15 fckng_stupid i grabbed 2 power wchairs for their motors and wheels and one good battery for a ups, and one chair
00:15 fckng_stupid sadly, not identical motors, different brand-quality-size wchairs
00:16 fckng_stupid <cough>
00:17 kng_stupid puts a mouse on Tom's shou
00:17 fckng_stupid (batteries not included)
00:18 fckng_stupid rue, whatever wilst thee make with ye 3D printer?
00:18 rue_more well
00:18 rue_more I made some board holders
00:20 kng_stupid makes a note to throw out that 5000 ft spool of plastic rod, because it's
00:20 rue_more well I'm glad your ok
00:20 Jak_o_Shadows Rue, will you be making little bits for robot arms with your printer?
00:20 fckng_stupid am i ok?
00:22 rue_more well, your alive, this is a good dependency
00:22 fckng_stupid i think you shold make all possible combinations of gears and sprockets with it, then make molds to cast aluminum parts
00:23 fckng_stupid but that would be useful, and smart, and i'm none of those things
00:24 rue_more you just dont think so
00:24 fckng_stupid my asshole neighbors divorced and moved out, i think, so maybe soon i can pretend to be human again
00:24 fckng_stupid wrong, i think i am pretty darned swooft, but i can't win an arguement to proove it
00:25 Jak_o_Shadows uh, swooft?
00:25 fckng_stupid swift, smart, fast on the uptake, etc
00:25 Jak_o_Shadows Also, I was more thinking of gera mounting, and nice brackety things. Rue possibly has enough gears.
00:26 fckng_stupid gera ?
00:26 Jak_o_Shadows gear
00:27 fckng_stupid well, see, there ya go, stupid idea of mine, so he cannot sell them on ebay to all of us who don't have enough good gears and sprockets
00:27 fckng_stupid especially for cog-belts , timing belts, whatever
00:28 Jak_o_Shadows oh, well that's different.
00:28 Jak_o_Shadows Also, I am in australia, so shipping always sucks
00:28 kng_stupid gets to work on robot sailb
