11:46 SpeedEvil Interesting
11:46 SpeedEvil I assume the desired output is not glass powder?
12:11 rue_shop3 SpeedEvil, no, its to crush up plastic for making filament
12:11 SpeedEvil Plastic doesn't really crush
12:11 SpeedEvil ah - I misread the description as glass
12:11 SpeedEvil nvm
12:11 SpeedEvil sorry

12:13 armyofevilrobots @rue_shop3 Having a bit of a crazy week again. Dog is on her last legs (only two of them right now), but I can commit to buying that crusher and helping out in July some more to get a filastruder up and running.
12:13 armyofevilrobots It’s small, but do we need a big crsher? Juust cut up the pieces first with a sawzall.
12:13 rue_shop3 something is wrong with that listing

12:15 armyofevilrobots I think these are all actally bullshit listings.
12:15 rue_shop3 I'm scratching my head
12:15 armyofevilrobots “Contact us for custom design".
12:15 rue_shop3 what kinda things would you like to crush up
12:16 rue_shop3 july is my last month here till october
12:17 rue_shop3 how old is your dog (sorry, forgot the name)
12:20 rue_shop3 wow, I had a strange dream about what the military was doing off in antarctica...
12:21 armyofevilrobots She is 13.5 yrs.
12:22 armyofevilrobots Paralyzed in the back end, and now a growth in her guts. :(
12:23 joga poor thing :(
12:24 armyofevilrobots Yeah, we’re going to have to put her down tomorrow I think. It’s cruel to try and keep her going at this point.
12:26 rue_shop3 is she part lab?
13:22 deshipu veverak: http://veter-project.blogspot.ch/2015/06/building-robotics-ground-vehicle-part-1.html
13:22 veverak suspension-less
13:22 veverak boring
13:23 verak just can't really like something this size completely without suspen
13:23 deshipu you prefer cliff-hangers? ;)
13:52 Orpheon deshipu, do you happen to have that link of legged robot you once linked me?
13:58 deshipu sigh, don't tell me, he left
14:19 rue_shop3 heheh
15:28 Orpheon ok
15:28 Orpheon how do you power the SG90?
15:28 deshipu directly from the lipo
15:29 Orpheon right
15:29 Orpheon PWM doesn't really need much power, does it?
15:30 deshipu no, the control signal is almost nothing
15:30 Orpheon oh good
15:30 deshipu the power for the servos is considerable, though
15:30 Orpheon so far, for testing them, I just ran them both power and control off the arduino
15:30 deshipu up to 1-2A even
15:30 Orpheon ok
15:31 deshipu all together, I mean
15:31 Orpheon yeah
15:31 Orpheon so a separate line would be good
15:31 Orpheon ok
16:21 _brendan_ Are there any good iOS apps for controlling an Arduino over bluetooth?
16:23 ace4016 a bit specific, isn't that?
16:27 _brendan_ Do you have any good online stores for buying spur gears for small robots?
16:36 SpeedEvil ebay can work
18:52 veverak deshipu: 3d printed wheels!
18:52 verak h
20:07 e_shop3 was making 3d printed pullies for small dc mo
