Back
[00:01:20] <Jak_o_Shadows> I think I would setup a bouncer
[00:01:56] * Anniepoo__ is here, with one of those things from kids birthday parties
[00:02:05] <Anniepoo__> boing boing
[00:02:11] <Anniepoo__> bouncy house!
[00:02:23] <Anniepoo__> come join in
[00:02:43] * Anniepoo__ watches roboticists bouncing around
[00:02:48] <Anniepoo__> 8cD
[00:04:38] <z64555> Helix from Freefall is perhaps my favorite robot character on memory
[00:05:16] <Anniepoo__> florence, big role model for me
[00:05:44] <Anniepoo__> but yes, helix is great
[13:50:43] <Snert> no no no...it's the Robomaid from The Jetsons.
[14:43:54] <z64555> Rosie?
[14:44:30] <Snert> that's her!
[14:45:05] <z64555> ping! ping! ping!
[14:45:46] <Snert> Rosie was way ahead of her time.
[14:46:04] <Snert> this was late 60s you know
[14:47:54] <z64555> most of the tech in that show was ahead of its time
[14:52:08] <Anniepoo__> jane stop this crazy thing
[18:25:16] <Snert> So what was the gumment trying to do? Brain wash us into wanting a futuristic society?
[18:25:39] <Snert> It was right during the moon landing / applo program time.
[18:26:38] <Snert> foot was set on the moon in 1969 I think.
[19:13:39] <z64555> nah
[19:13:52] <z64555> It's just hollywood capitilizing on interests of the decade
[19:14:36] <z64555> Got a war going on that your country is a part of? Make a war movie
[19:14:56] <z64555> Got exciting things happening in silicon valley? Make a robot movie
[19:15:16] <z64555> Got a baby boom? Make lots of cartoons
[19:47:06] <Snert> big fins on old cadillacs....yes.
[21:15:03] <rue_house> hwo do I attach a 5mm shaft to an 8mm shaft
[21:15:11] <rue_house> when they need to be spinning at 10k rpm
[21:34:33] <malcom2073> rue_house: coupler
[21:34:35] <malcom2073> a well balanced one
[21:42:11] <rue_shop3> yea
[21:44:48] <rue_shop3> yay for my gear puller!
[21:44:54] <rue_shop3> flawless removal again
[21:47:20] <Anniepoo__> yay for rue's gear puller
[21:47:31] * Anniepoo__ is watching smt soldering videos
[21:48:59] <rue_shop3> yea, 5mm to 8mm
[21:49:29] <rue_shop3> I wonder if ridgid coupler would come out straight enough on the lathe
[21:57:16] <rue_shop3> the most frustrating part, is that if someone can up and asked me, I'd immediatly have some goofy solution that would work fine
[22:11:27] <Anniepoo__> watcha makin?
[22:13:55] <rue_shop3> cnc machine
[22:14:47] <Anniepoo__> thinking about ballscrew-servo coupler?
[22:14:56] <rue_shop3> no
[22:15:16] <rue_shop3> I think I'm gonna perpendicular pinslot drive it
[22:15:28] <rue_shop3> effectivly a universal
[22:15:35] <rue_shop3> easy to make tho
[22:16:03] <Anniepoo__> use thick walls on the tube
[22:16:09] <rue_shop3> all I have to do to the motor it drill a hole thru the shaft
[22:16:35] <Anniepoo__> you have a lathe, yes?
[22:17:05] <rue_shop3> yup, but I dont thiinkj I can make a coupler balanced enough
[22:17:19] <rue_shop3> maaaabe, but I also dont wnat to deal with alignment issues
[22:17:39] <rue_shop3> if I can be off 0.25 or 0.5mm its a good thing
[22:20:39] <rue_shop3> I'd use pullies and a belt, but I want to make it all verticle
[22:29:15] <rue_house> I'd learned its a bad idea to fall asleep in the shop chair, gnight
[22:29:37] <rue_house> I found a motor and made a spindle bracket
[22:29:50] <rue_house> maybe tommorow I can make the Y/Z carrige
[22:32:16] <rue_bed> I'll do up a spindle/motor assembly first
[22:32:32] <rue_bed> maybe I can do the stepper motor couplers too
[22:46:16] <rue_bed> oooh damn, if I fall asleep now, wont be awake for newyads
[22:46:26] <rue_bed> cant eekp eyes open
[22:46:30] <rue_bed> ar
[22:46:32] <rue_bed> g'
[22:47:09] <rue_bed> rue_house, must take picture of fridge
