[02:50:17] <pink_vampire> Contract_Pilot: AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
[02:50:44] <Contract_Pilot> Shop is insulated but the doors 7.5kw should keep up maybe i should have went with a 10kw or 2 7.5's https://king-electric.com

[02:55:12] <Contract_Pilot> Pink yea lost one last week when temps dipped in to the 20's outside heater was on almost all the time blowing air tward the brooder.
[02:55:25] <Contract_Pilot> I since changed it..
[02:55:45] <Contract_Pilot> Heaterfan blows away from brooder temps much more stable.

[03:02:22] <pink_vampire> hi Deejay
[03:02:34] <Deejay> :)
[03:02:45] <pink_vampire> Contract_Pilot: yeah, I want to do something similar

[03:14:17] <miss0r> morning
[03:17:04] <Contract_Pilot> Morning..
[03:17:34] <Loetmichel> hmm, anyone knows of a screw terminal(strip) for PCB mount that can do 8A per pin, is max 12mm high, has the wire AND the screw parallel to the PCB (plug in terminals would work, too) AND is in stock at RS or farnell (or any other that delivers 1 day to germany)... I need to connect a few DCDC convereters sideways between pins and heatsink...

[04:26:18] <miss0r> Loetmichel: Something like this: https://dk.rs-online.com
[04:27:58] <Loetmichel> miss0r: i use these now: https://www.reichelt.de
[04:28:04] -!- BitEvil has joined #linuxcnc
[04:28:26] <Loetmichel> and these: https://www.reichelt.de
[04:28:28] <miss0r> I thought you wanted the screw/spring release to face the same direction as the wire?
[04:28:35] <Loetmichel> should work in the aviable space
[04:28:46] <Loetmichel> if its pluggable thats not an issue
[04:28:56] <Loetmichel> i can screw in the wires and THEN plug it in ;)
[04:29:17] <Loetmichel> its only that i just have side access to the DCDC converter

[04:30:08] <miss0r> indeed
[04:30:19] <miss0r> so, you would actualy rather do a plugin solution?
[04:32:45] <Loetmichel> i could do both
[04:32:53] <miss0r> Loetmichel: Yesterday I felt particularly proud of myself; I managed to fsck up the splines(last operation.. well second to last) on this axle.... https://imgur.com
[04:33:13] <Loetmichel> but the plugin solution has the advantage of less hassle if you have to dismantle the PC
[04:33:26] <miss0r> what I am thinking exactly
[04:33:47] -!- devlap has quit [Ping timeout: 255 seconds]
[04:33:50] <Loetmichel> its already full enough in there ... > http://www.cyrom.org
[04:34:03] <Loetmichel> dcdc-converter is the black block on the back wall
[04:34:22] <Loetmichel> and will get a metal cover "just above the pins"

[04:35:43] <miss0r> not sure what I am looking at
[04:36:24] <Loetmichel> miss0r: a PC with 12" touch monitor ;)
[04:36:26] <miss0r> but that computer enclosure looks sturdy as hell :)
[04:36:39] <Loetmichel> the back "wall" is a heatsink
[04:36:48] <miss0r> ahh
[04:37:05] <Loetmichel> and the black block is the main DCDC for 24V->12v
[04:37:44] <Loetmichel> thats it in assembled and working: http://www.cyrom.org
[04:37:58] <Loetmichel> http://www.cyrom.org <- back side
[04:38:22] <miss0r> I've often wanted to build a sturdy portable PC with a extented long range xbee coms module in it :)
[04:38:57] <miss0r> damn that thing looks nice
[04:39:23] <miss0r> that alot of fiber ports :)
[04:39:26] <Loetmichel> its a "§$(%& to assemble though. customer restraints for size.
[04:39:37] <Loetmichel> was a pain to get all the components in there ;)
[04:39:50] -!- jason_ has joined #linuxcnc
[04:39:56] <miss0r> hehe. Can you tell me what it is for?/used for?
[04:40:36] <Loetmichel> some kind of dispatch terminal for audio signals (voip) in different networks
[04:40:46] <Loetmichel> for military use ;)
[04:41:49] <miss0r> ofc. it is :)
[04:42:02] <miss0r> Sadly it seems my module of choice is not for sale anymore: https://www.sparkfun.com
[04:42:15] <miss0r> 1w 40miles range serial point to point comms
[04:43:23] <pink_vampire> 900 mhz need very high tower to get that
[04:43:49] <miss0r> sure. but look at the size of that transmitter/receiver :)
[04:44:46] <miss0r> At one point I wanted to make two elu briefcases with a small computer in each, and a ridiculous encryption, as two chat clients connceted to eachother with that module
[04:44:50] <miss0r> that would be realy nice :)
[04:44:58] <miss0r> Not sure what to use it for.. but nice anyway
[04:45:38] <pink_vampire> https://www.ebay.com
[04:46:37] -!- renesis has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[04:46:51] <miss0r> yeah... I'm pretty sure I would get hell if I started transmitting on 900mhz without a permit :)

[04:47:55] <pink_vampire> i know ham radio have a band in 900 mhz
[04:50:47] <miss0r> In Denmark we are only allowed to use the 27mhz band without lisence, and even then we have to stay under a specific transmitting power.
[04:50:59] <jthornton> morning
[04:51:14] <miss0r> (I don't remember the exact numbers). But 'round here 27mhz is considered amature radio
[04:51:21] <miss0r> morning jt-m[m]

[06:23:24] <Tom_L> after looking at some of the threads i decided 2 may be a bit much of a cut
[06:23:59] <XXCoder> expecally if you wanna cut harder metals. yeah
[06:24:11] <Tom_L> thinking about steel
[06:24:44] <Tom_L> possibly making more sherline mill holders
[06:25:46] <Tom_L> those are 3/4 16
[06:26:20] <XXCoder> 16 pretty thick threads eh?
[06:26:40] <Tom_L> UNF

[13:10:46] <CNC_Brian> Guy's, anybody got a recommendation on some sealant that is compatible with flood coolant.
[13:11:45] <JT-Shop> that would depend on the type of coolant I'd assume
[13:11:49] <CNC_Brian> I made my enclosure out of plastic covered wood to contain the mess, but have just ordered a coolant system
[13:12:05] <CNC_Brian> I was worried someone would say that.
[13:12:45] <CNC_Brian> I just use a oil based coolant on my lathe so was intending to sick with that.
[13:13:12] <CNC_Brian> I really want it for washing away chips so I don't re-cut
[13:13:36] <CNC_Brian> Don't do enough machining to worry about tool ware

[13:19:06] <Tom_L> oops
[13:19:19] <Tom_L> tryin out the new car?
[13:19:36] <Tom_L> surprised it didn't take over and slow your arse down!
[13:19:50] <JT-Shop> took the old car to get a trade in evaluation and wanted a pizza
[13:19:53] <CNC_Brian> Tom, I already built it and have been using it for 2 years.
[13:20:03] <Tom_L> they've been on a campaign around here for a couple months

[15:34:32] <fragalot> UK company iirc
[15:34:39] <gloops> oh, yeah might be an issue
[15:35:12] <fragalot> lol they have 1 review on google maps by Bindu Tools
[15:36:08] <gloops> https://www.zoro.co.uk
[15:36:14] <gloops> sht
[15:37:40] <fragalot> big carbide is expensive
[15:38:39] <fragalot> and i'm sure zoro isn't the cheapest place
[15:39:15] <gloops> i got a box full of new dolls house molding bits on ebay, 30 quid, should be here tommorrow, im all tooled up then haha
[15:39:35] <fragalot> you can never have too many different cutters
[15:39:53] <gloops> no, you never know what youll need
[15:40:17] <fragalot> one of the reasons I like my deckel SO clone
[15:40:21] <fragalot> s0*
[15:40:47] <fragalot> takes some getting used to the limitations of it, but it has proven useful quite a few times
[15:41:10] <gloops> tool making?
[15:41:10] <fragalot> (and has already paid itself back in restoring endmills alone, lol)
[15:41:28] <fragalot> yeah
[15:42:19] <gloops> well yeah, if cutters are a couple hundred quid each
[15:43:06] <fragalot> even if they're only £50 each
[15:43:15] <fragalot> or £20.. as a hobbyist, my time is free
[15:43:17] <fragalot> the cutters are not :D
[15:43:42] <fragalot> that said - i've decided that I want to build a gantry crane in my little shed
[15:43:55] <gloops> also the time element, 2 weeks for delivery on a new one, or grind the old back up today
[15:44:02] <fragalot> yea
[15:44:18] <fragalot> or a custom shape, say you need to restore something with a weird dovetail angle
[15:44:35] <gloops> crane for moving jobs about?
[15:44:52] <fragalot> or machines & accessoires
[15:45:28] <fragalot> due to space constraints, I put my sheet metal shears & bender tucked under my mill & pull it out onto my workbench if I need to use it
[15:45:35] <fragalot> but that damn thing weighs 75kg and that is getting lame fast
[15:46:27] <gloops> those little hydraulic engine lifts are handy - not so great when you have to start moving them around with a load on though
[15:46:37] <fragalot> my shed is too small for those
[15:47:02] <fragalot> so.. overhead crane it is
[15:47:27] <gloops> yeah, no need for a path around everything with a gantry running along the sides
[15:47:30] <fragalot> will need to build a full metal frame though as the walls & roof are far too flimsy to take any load
[15:47:40] <fragalot> but that's easy
[15:47:48] -!- holzjunkie has joined #linuxcnc
[15:48:57] <gloops> hmm, an iron square all round the base? or maybe set some posts in each corner
[15:49:07] <fragalot> posts in each corner & halfway
[15:49:13] <fragalot> along the walls
[15:49:35] <fragalot> on top of that, U channels with a chain in it to keep the gantry parallel
[15:49:49] <fragalot> and an I-beam gantry riding in, or just below the U channel
[15:51:39] <gloops> what stops the two channels spragging apart, outwards?
[15:52:28] <fragalot> steel bars spanning across
[15:55:03] <gloops> well i dont suppose its going to be carry 10 tonnes anyway

[15:59:50] <gloops> and all this is for hobby work fragalot? or have you got a retirement plan in mind here lol?
[16:00:02] <fragalot> :-)
[16:00:25] <fragalot> mostly so I eventually CAN retire, rather than doing my back in lifting something I shouldn't be lifting
[16:00:47] <fragalot> already had a few mishaps recently, dislocating my shoulder & nearly bending my knee backwards
[16:01:31] <gloops> i wished id set the garage up with some decent metalwork machines, instead i just got a load of this and that when i saw it and not really set up for anything
[16:01:35] <fragalot> remember, always lift with a twisting jerky motion
[16:02:11] <gloops> knee backwards sounds a bit scary
[16:02:28] <fragalot> yea, not fun
[16:02:41] <fragalot> did that when getting that drill press, trying to lift the table out of the back of the car
[16:02:56] <fragalot> or the head, can't remember.. all i remember was having to have a sit down for a while
[16:03:29] <gloops> whoo you have to be careful with that if youre not someone who does lifting all the time
[16:04:13] <fragalot> even if, some things just aren't meant to be lifted from uncomfortable positions
[16:04:26] <fragalot> thus me investing in something so that doesn't happen anymore :P
[16:04:58] <gloops> i damaged a nerve in my back years ago, im usually careful but was persuaded by someone we could lift and move something that was stupid to attempt - he didnt get hurt lol
[16:05:05] <gloops> never been right properly since
[16:05:37] <fragalot> i've done my back in ~10yrs ago putting a bin bag out
[16:05:46] <fragalot> twisted the wrong way I think & just collapsed
[16:06:15] <gloops> it is that easy, i know someone who can hardly walk - sneezed while tying his shoelace, back done

[16:15:45] <CaptHindsight> anyone have a bandsaw big enough to rip a 4 ft (1.3m) forklift fork?
[16:17:17] <gloops> the question has to spring to mind...
[16:17:22] <gloops> why? lol
[16:17:25] <rmu> i could fax one to you
[16:18:22] <fragalot> couldn't you do that even with a little portaband if you were so inclined?
[16:19:24] <CaptHindsight> fragalot: need the blade to cut at a right angle from their typical position
[16:20:34] <gloops> stihl saw
[16:20:46] <CaptHindsight> rip cut https://youtu.be
[16:21:18] <CaptHindsight> only with 2" (50mm) angle
[16:21:19] <fragalot> CaptHindsight: I know, that is why the bands are often bent at an angle
[16:23:25] <CaptHindsight> the waterjet guys down the street can't handle the angle
[16:23:48] <rmu> plasma torch?
[16:24:05] <fragalot> zip cut blade & patience.
[16:24:14] <CaptHindsight> was trying to stay away from heat
[16:24:33] <CaptHindsight> so pay someone else to do it
[16:24:38] <fragalot> :D
[16:24:50] <fragalot> isn't that exactly what your customer is doing?
[16:24:56] <CaptHindsight> or modify a bandsaw
[16:24:56] <methods_> they could handle the angle they'd just have to put one side of the L down into the tank
[16:25:05] <methods_> assuming their tank is deep enough for that
[16:25:24] <CaptHindsight> think it's only ~2 ft deep
[16:25:28] <methods_> ah nm then
[16:25:32] <CaptHindsight> from memory
[16:25:33] <fragalot> I doubt they ahve a 1.3m deep tank
[16:25:35] <methods_> our tank is like 4'
[16:25:46] <CaptHindsight> send it to methods_
[16:25:50] <methods_> hah
[16:26:16] <methods_> you would do it on a bandsaw too if you kicked it up on an angle as you pass it thru
[16:26:20] <CaptHindsight> I need my waterjet backpack
[16:26:23] <methods_> would be a nightmare to hold
[16:26:33] <methods_> but you could do it
[16:26:42] <CaptHindsight> 7 ft of cut
[16:26:47] <methods_> yeah
[16:26:57] <CaptHindsight> so maybe 4 hrs
[16:26:59] <fragalot> get 2 forks, mill away half of eac
[16:27:00] <fragalot> h
[16:27:16] <methods_> probably easier just to make a new fork
[16:27:20] <CaptHindsight> 4 hrs x $400/hour
[16:27:25] <CaptHindsight> yeah new forks
[16:27:59] <CaptHindsight> angle grinder and 50 wheels
[16:28:20] <methods_> does not sound like fun
[16:28:34] <methods_> my forearms are wimpering
[16:28:46] <CaptHindsight> I know, not my idea of a good time
[16:29:55] <CaptHindsight> each fork is 400lbs (180Kg)
[16:30:52] <CaptHindsight> could get away with just cutting the horizontal portion of the forks
[16:31:04] <andypugh> Slitting saw and big CNC mill?

[16:45:38] <CaptHindsight> forks on craigslist are $200

[17:12:04] <Tom_L> CaptHindsight what size slitting saw? i got a couple but the spindle motor won't handle em
[17:12:43] <CaptHindsight> Tom_L: was looking at 6" since the arbor is just over 1"
[17:13:04] <Tom_L> 6" would take quite a bit of hp to cut
[17:13:29] <CaptHindsight> but I'll likely just get different forks and sell the big ones
[17:13:49] <CaptHindsight> was just looking at options
[17:14:16] <Tom_L> didn't really read the backlog in it's entirety
[17:15:36] <CaptHindsight> forget the HP of the matsuura
[17:15:51] <Tom_L> i'm constantly reminded of it on my little mill
[17:17:21] <andypugh> Tom_L: I happily run 6” slitting saws on my horizontal mill. But then the 45rpm lowest speed is basically unstoppable…
[17:17:34] <CaptHindsight> tripped it on 40A 208V once when I got too greedy with a 4" facemill
[17:18:53] <Tom_L> andypugh i bet
[17:19:46] <Tom_L> the ones i have are fairly thin
[17:20:05] <CaptHindsight> likely 8-10HP spindle motor
[17:20:10] <Tom_L> iirc ~.040" and maybe 2.5" or so diameter
[17:20:46] <Tom_L> http://tom-itx.no-ip.biz:81
[17:20:53] <Tom_L> similar in size with same hub
[17:21:44] <Tom_L> i think i've got a couple with maybe 5/8" center

[23:14:04] <hazzy-m> pink_vampire: Looks good!
[23:14:25] <pink_vampire> hope it will be as good soon
[23:14:31] <hazzy-m> BTW, nice tap holder :)
[23:15:37] <pink_vampire> hope you are joke
[23:16:55] <hazzy-m> haha, yes
[23:18:43] <pink_vampire> for 10-32 drill chuck is fine, for larger taps you need decent holder
[23:20:02] <hazzy-m> I do like using a plain old keyed chuck for small taps, since if you don't over tighten it can slip instead of breaking the tap
[23:20:10] <hazzy-m> yeah
[23:20:21] -!- sadisticroot has parted #linuxcnc
[23:20:43] -!- ink has quit [Quit: brbs]
[23:21:04] <pink_vampire> it is a keyed chuck
[23:21:51] <hazzy-m> I was not thinking once and put a tap in the albrecht and then proceed to tap with the lathe spindle on as usual, oops
[23:22:29] <Wolf__> Ive exploded a tap that way
[23:22:53] <pink_vampire> Abom show very easy way to make tap holder
[23:25:23] <hazzy-m> I'll have to check that out, its probably for a 4" - 4 UNC, lol
[23:26:22] <hazzy-m> Found it! https://youtu.be
[23:26:30] <pink_vampire> https://www.youtube.com
[23:26:30] <hazzy-m> nice, that is easy!
[23:26:49] <pink_vampire> yeah very easy
[23:29:44] <hazzy-m> I have a tapping head for the bridgeport, but it didn't come with collets and they aren't easy to find, so I've been making them as I need them, and their kinda a pain
[23:30:03] <Wolf__> for those really big taps https://i.imgur.com
[23:30:20] <hazzy-m> they use a cross drilled hole instead of Abom's slot for catch the end tap
[23:30:46] <hazzy-m> that is a nice tap stand!
[23:30:46] <pink_vampire> Wolf__: nice tap guide
[23:31:26] <Wolf__> nice for doing 2mm holes
[23:36:12] * hazzy-m needs to make a whole set of these https://i.imgur.com
[23:36:12] <Wolf__> I honestly never thought I would use the thing but it is really nice
[23:36:32] <pink_vampire> look fun
[23:37:28] <pink_vampire> now you have a good reason to get a swiss machine
[23:38:24] <hazzy-m> Haha, there you go!
[23:38:44] <hazzy-m> I have a old cheapo drill press with a foot switch I use for tapping sheet metal, don't what I'd do without it
