Vexual: do
the yesno graphs all look
the same?
Vexual: ther's certainly more
to
that story

Vexual: type ab knows what
to do next
Vexual: but a drunk alone doesnt get far past
the showroom
Vexual: thats my understanding, a humanlike
thing approximates
the position
then uses a camera
to fine
tune
decimation: ok
that makes sense, would be a good compromise for prototyping. it would be damn handy
to hit a key
to make
the
thing move 0.1mm instead of
trying
to finesse it
decimation: yean even
the 'cheap' chinese one was like $4k I
think
Vexual: doesnt hurt
to have a look
Vexual: a week in shenzen might be a goos use of
time
decimation: asciilifeform: what kind of precision are you
trying
to meet with your paste squirter?
decimation: yeah
the smallest smt parts are a bitch
BingoBoingo: I can only imagine what
the pressure is like when
the penguin only has a 3-4 hour drive
decimation: it seems
to me
that
the quantity
that you are minimizing is your
time investment
decimation: well,
the idea is
that you are investing in
the equipment required
to build other products in
the future,
thus making
the NRE "recoverable"
decimation: I wonder if
there is a subtle 'puff' effect from flex
tube as
the vaccuum is released and
the
tube rebounds
decimation: I can see how a flex
tube
that pulls a decent vaccuum would interfere with a x/y positioner's movement
decimation: yeah
this is definitely a hardcore solution, probably higher quality
than many pro pick'n place machines
assbot: Making a homemade metal semi-automatic rifle just got crazy easy | Ars
Technica
decimation: asciilifeform: why not use a flexible
tube?
Vexual: did you solve
the glue dilemma?
Vexual: the rotation and
the vacuum part
Vexual: i was wondering whyy
that bell end was at
the other end
assbot: Exothermic welding - Wikipedia,
the free encyclopedia
Vexual: you'll find more danger with
the pice getting stuck
to
the wheel and comin atchya at some aweful rate
BingoBoingo: Vexual: From embedded iron
that oxidized in
the wheel.
Vexual: wheres all
thisoxygen coming from?
BingoBoingo: And
the
two ingredients have 3 elements between
them...
BingoBoingo: Seriously
though... All of
the fire
the
thermite references here...
Thermite has exactly
two ingredients...
TheNewDeal: shiiit I'm gonna use
the diamonds in my
teeth and cut it like Jaws
BingoBoingo: TheNewDeal: Well, a bandsaw has rather controllable surfaces. A grinding wheel
though if you work aluminium...
turns into
the bane of COmmunity College machine shops
Vexual: expands locally hence
the need for parrafin wax lube
TheNewDeal: I'm not saying it isn't possible, but I'm pretty sure I've cut
the shit on a band saw, while lightly spraying some lubricant, and had no problems of ignition.
That band saw was for sure used in cutting other
things (not sure how much iron)
BingoBoingo: Also about
things
that generate heat... like
thermite.
Vexual: i always
thought it was more about
the heat
BingoBoingo: TheNewDeal: It isn't necessarily
that Aluminum is flamable enough on its own. Nearly any grinding equiptment usually put upon it will have already cut iron and have various Iron oxides in it...
BingoBoingo: Aluminium also clogs
the shit out of grinding wheels
Vexual: i mean
the part he machined, me
thinks i could find something in my own junkyard, it must be
the way it attaches
to
the machine or something
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform>
TheNewDeal: harder
than Al, not as
tricky
to machine as stainless steel <<
To be fair machining Aluminium is plenty
tricky on its own
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: By 2018 Maybe I can commision a euphonium? I don't even want
to
think about how long a
Tuba would
take.
decimation: neat-o ascii, congrats on
the manufacture
BingoBoingo: Expecting a plastic
to survive solder beads?
BingoBoingo: And
then you'll need 40 locking apparati minimum
BingoBoingo: Sure, you can claim Diabeetus and get soft plastic shit
that wears like hell
BingoBoingo: Vexual: Well, it is hard
to get a leuer lock without an expensive ass IV pump or heroin habit
Vexual: what about
that
thing means it's not available off
the shelf?
BingoBoingo: When dealing with brass anything... You have
to pretty much machine it yourself
Vexual: drawing one would
take as long as making one
TheNewDeal: why was brass chosen, if I might continue
to pester you with manufacturing questions?
Vexual: is it straight
thru inside?
the outside is a piece of art
TheNewDeal: are
they expensive
to procure and you have muchos
tiempos on your manos?
danielpbarron: yeah, but he also paid
to have it advertised on Free
Talk Live
to a slightly bigger retard following
danielpbarron: TheNewDeal, no problem unless you are one of
the many who probably bought it because MWD hyped it up
TheNewDeal: whats
the problem with namecoin price decreasing anyways?
Vexual: danielpbarron: can you
think of a dotbit site off
the
top of your head?
