@haughty quiver good sound, good video. 'sall good.

heavy siren

Anybody in the hacking world simply see's this as standard procedure.

You're hiding now 😛

It’s all just proof that we’re really, truly live.

Yes, we have audio and video, but now John has no head

i dont see anyone and was forced to watch a tower collapse video ...

lol, that warp is something

3D printing is 90% tweaking, i haven't gotten the hang of it yet either

I need to get my printer up again

I need to find someone to print me an ABS print head mount though

Which has been a pain

Hey, I have a lot of love for cigar boxes.

They're a prototyper's dream.

That, and those mint boxes

#

@eager sapphire Not the biggest fan of them, they're conductive

For me, that’s an upside, shielding

Gotta love a good prototype.
Nice job John

Very cool @haughty quiver

I love a good enclosure. Thanks @haughty quiver

think scale

where your weight are measured and you have segment display

heavy siren
#

Cost for all is ???

waxen thistle

I'm curious what these sony cameras cost....i'm a big fan of my logitech c920 cameras, but this is night and day better 😃

#

Haha, need more slack in that HDMI connection

heavy siren
#

WOW, what a setup for an overhead.

waxen thistle
#

Everything in life is a workaround 😉

eager sapphire
#

That is a mighty fine studio setup

proven lintel
#

Are the NeoSegments fully modular? Are they each individually adressable?

inner spade
#

You need to convert to Monster cable. 😉

proven lintel
#

@inner spade no one is that rich or silly 😛

inner spade
#

... the size of a garden hose, of course.

proven lintel
#

So you could build a matrix of them for simple animations?

heavy siren
#

Set the green value to i*20 to vary the segment alone.

proven lintel
#

I remember that one, the defusing on that build was nicely done.

7 Segment cube sounds fun!

Nice job John.

Typical example of why I love the Workshop. John doesn't flinch a bit. He deals with the issue and gets back on track.
Humming along..... ><>

there's a bit of intermittent audio buzz - maybe your USB hub needs power assistance?

heavy siren

I've got good audio.

runic acorn
#

Your process for making the enclosures make for a really professional looking end product. I cheat by using a box generator. http://www.makercase.com/

I am about to cut my case soon, which has the repeated tabs. It is a timesaver, but does not look as good.

@haughty quiver what's the program name? is there a windows equivalent?

runic acorn

Yes, it is an SVG that I bring into Inkscape to add other cuttouts

@dire bane the nylon screws are M2.5, I think.

dire bane
#

nylon? looked powder coated to me 😃

inner spade
#

The black ones are from the Adafruit assortment, I think.

#

I use those a lot. Also translucent white nylon, too.

dire bane
#

don't those pots have a keying tab?

#

ok

heavy siren
#

The keying tab can be snapped off easily.

dire bane
#

yeah, he answered it after I typed it

inner spade
#

@haughty quiver That's a great enclosure design. The raster markings look very good.

heavy siren
#

Is that USB panel mount extender available from Adafruit?

inner spade
#

@heavy siren Yes. They're a go-to for many of my projects. Adafruit has a nice assortment.

heavy siren
#

@inner spade Thanks, I have many applications for those.

inner spade
#

@heavy siren They work well with just a round hole for the rectangular USB connector, too. Handy if you don't have a CNC or laser cutter.

heavy siren
#

@inner spade I'm a bit more old fashioned. Chisel time.....

#

Or whittle...

inner spade
#

This is what I use for the micro USB panel cable. Just use round drills. My chisels aren't sharp enough...

dire bane
#

yes, the no signal box is still there

eager sapphire

The humble x-acto knife works well too

heavy siren

Dremel tool works, too.

dire bane

I use a "nibbler" for cutting square holes in my ABS boxes

heavy siren

This project has really got me wanting a laser cutter. Can Santa Claus make them in his shop I wonder?

#

@dire bane Yes, a Nibbler works well to.

Isn't that where all toys come from?

When you are your own Santa Claus, it kinda....well cancels itself out.

I think we've switched weather patterns somehow. It's 45 and raining here...

glossy glacier
#

I spent some of today figuring out how to seal up the garage door. I have a plan now that should work though.

inner spade
#

What will be your approach? I assume that you'll still want a functional door, too.

glossy glacier
#

Yeah, I am going to have to do a bit of work though if I ever want to open it.

#

The door is actualy too big for the size of hole in the wall, so there is a big gap around the top edge. So I am going to take that panel off of the rollers to get it straigth, and the pack pipe inulation around the door to creat an air seal. After that, I am putting reflextex over the surface of the garage door. If I want to open it, I have to take the foam insulation out, screw the top pannel rollers back on, and just open the door.

inner spade
#

Sounds workable, particularly if you're going to insulate. It's pretty tough to fully seal a garage door.

muted mesa
#

@glossy glacier have you thought about using enclosure heaters for the SEM? I know that overall comfort is a factor for you, but it might be cheaper and keep your garage openable (is that a word?).

glossy glacier
#

SEM is probably not going to be online for show and tell, I am going to try and run some leak detection hard ware on it over the next few days.

#

@muted mesa Alot of other things dont like to freeze either, some of the chemical procese I am going to be doing need to stay warm, and over the winter I really dont want to be frozen all the time I am working...

muted mesa
#

gotcha. garage heating is a process i hope to never research again.

glossy glacier
#

It should not be that hard to fully seal up the door becuase I am planing on not opening it while I have the seals in place. When I want to open it, I spend 10 mins pulling them off and going for it.

#

yeah, it's really not that fun...

muted mesa
#

is it insulated?

glossy glacier
#

It's all CMU

#

or cinder blocks as they are more comonly known.

inner spade
#

The walls are concrete block, right? Will it be possible to insulate overhead in the ceiling area? Doing the ceiling will help tremendously.

glossy glacier
#

@inner spade Yeah, plan is to do the cealing at some point to.

muted mesa
#

not gonna lie. i googled CMU...yeah, cinder blocks. hehe

inner spade
#

The problem with cinder block walls is that you end up with exposed insulation if drywall isn't added. Fire codes are picky about exposed insulation.

glossy glacier
#

Yeah, I dont think I am going to spend enough winters in the shop to warnd all of that work...

muted mesa
#

yeah, overhead insulation is where you'll get the best bang for buck. after that, it all comes down to how much power you have available.

#

and which type (electric vs gas)

inner spade
#

I know 'cause I remodeled my garage a couple of years ago. Tore the roof off, moved the ceiling up 2.5 ft, then insulated the rafters up to about R30.

muted mesa
#

R30...that's well planned.

inner spade
#

R13 in the walls. Replaced the big door with one rated at R9.

glossy glacier
#

lol no way I am getting to that

inner spade
#

You can get 3.5-inch R13 if you look around.

glossy glacier
#

right now, I have this giant 8 inch gap runing along the top of my garage door, so its pretty much imposible to heat.

inner spade
#

Yeah, it's probably not about R-value, but more about CFM leakage!

glossy glacier
#

I keep a fan runing right now to make sure that dew isint that big of a problem.

#

CFM is really bad right now...

muted mesa
#

wow. tarp, blankets, and duct tape would improve your situation at this point.

glossy glacier
#

Yeah, thus why I am working on the garage door right now.

muted mesa
#

or newspaper. suprisingly good insulator.

#

how many sq ft? the little 240v 5kw heaters can heat a space pretty well (all other things considered).

glossy glacier
#

370

#

With the SEM going, I dont have that much power left over. I can do a pellet stove where I live.

#

Last year we had a lot of days bellow freezing.

https://www.pololu.com/product/1931

These female pins can be crimped on 22-28AWG wires and snapped into our crimp connector housings to create custom cables that are compatible with standard 0.1"-pitch headers and solderless breadboards. Our wires with pre-crimped terminals use these same pins. One female crimp pin pack consists of 100 pins.

These male pins can be crimped on 22-28AWG wires and snapped into our crimp connector housings to create custom cables that are compatible with standard 0.1"-pitch headers and solderless breadboards. Our wires with pre-crimped terminals use these same pins. One male crimp pin pack consists of 100 pins.

Nice. That is cute! I ended up getting the new Prusa kit. Big enough to make some useful project enclosures and such.

I went with the Prusa for it's bulletproofness., and the ability to snap a Pi0w on it for Octoprint.

I.e. I'm not interested in being "into" 3d printing. I just want to be able to print 3d things without much fuss. That said, building it from a kit will give some deeper understanding of how it works. Not to mention being a fun evening/weekend project.

#

Saw what spools?

#

@odd stream yeah, same here with it being online, but I did find out my local library supports a small maker space

#

so I'm going to go check that out.

#

@proven lintel I'm running my V6 with a PLA mount. It mounts above the fins, so it is fine. If t is being cooled properly, the hot end should never get hot enough up there to melt anything. Mine stays cool enough to touch near the mount.

proven lintel
#

@peak bloom Yeah I think PLA would be fine too, except it puts me in the same boat, still no one to print me the 0 offset V6 mount

#

So I'm stuck printerless until I figure that out. I wish I could just order it from somewhere. I'd gladly pay for it.

peak bloom
#

Do you have direct drve or bowden? I have a bowden set up, and once zip tied my hot end on so that I could print long enough to get a proper mount. lol

proven lintel
#

Bowden

#

@peak bloom haha, that's awesome. I'm also having issues with my be wiring. Contacts look fine but getting a discconect so I need to finish drilling my rewire holes.

#

I guess I should just finish that up and then try and print the mount with the one I currently have (which isn't 0 offset, so home is slightly off the print bed)

@proven lintel the spools of filiment

#

Might be able to print what you need

#

Also, it looks like the Mini V2 has a basic web interface but I wasn't having any luck with it. I'm going to fiddle with it more tonight

#

OctoPrint seems pretty cool though.

blazing atlas
#

@odd stream octopi is easy to modify to have two cameras! :3

#

@river peak octoprint is convenient 😃 CURA has a "print to octoprint" support

river peak
#

Heh, nice

#

I'm not bothered. It's half a step if the web interface works. If it doesn't, it's just up the stairs. Woo.

odd stream
#

@river peak Yeah, mine will be about 5 feet away from my desk. But it'd be nice not to have to spin in my chair to check on it, ya know?

river peak

The camera bits are the cool parts

We are ready here, sir.

Video and audio okay!

#

@haughty quiver Would using the EN pin for power on-off work with your setup?

#

It would allow you to charge the battery via usb when the power switch is off.

inner spade
#

Nice to not have open flames, too.

inner spade
#

Nicely done, @haughty quiver ! Very cool. Takes me back...

@inner spade thanks so much for the excellent idea on EN pin!

@haughty quiver nice that it's on ble as i have watched bleHelper a lot lately

sweet kernel

Well if you ever have to install electron onto ubuntu after you install all the dependencies you have to use this command.
sudo npm install -g electron --unsafe-perm=true --allow-root
Might save someone a day of trying things that don't work. Of course this is only after you figure out how to get the rest of the dependencies working on your machine. However, the --allow-root directive isn't exactly clear because the directions they give don't include it. With that ubuntu

Does @open girder give out sparky stickers or patches for horror stories?

strange mantle
#

@odd stream maybe. if the horror story is some kind of electronics mistake / learning experience, then yes:
https://blog.adafruit.com/2017/08/29/celebrate-mistakes-together-with-sparky-the-blue-smoke-monster-adafruit-discordapp-adafruit/
but if the horror story is just about being chased by a monster or something, then maybe not...

Celebrate mistakes together with Sparky the Blue Smoke Monster :) (video). We’re giving away some Sparky The Blue Smoke Monster pins in our Discord chat in the #showandtell channel. CLICK HER…

odd stream
#

Ah pins. Cool, thanks.

#

np. actual blue smoke is not required, just a bonus.

what if it is purple smoke...

Then you've found some Nitrogen Triiodide

I wanted to thank Phil & Lady Ada for giving my class some Circuit Playground Express devices. My middle School class made a number of projects with them and then showed them off to the 4th graders. My class has really enjoyed learning about programming and the younger kids really loved seeing the projects. I thought I'd share some notes the 4th graders wrote as they really seemed to love the Circuit Playgrounds as well. Consider these notes to Adafruit as well as my class, as you guys have been very generous with your time and learning resources.

#

Thanks again for your generosity!

river peak
#

@soft dawn I do believe this should be repeated in #hug-reports and probably e-mailed to them. I'm sure they'll love to see it

soft dawn
#

You're right, sorry! I meant to do it there! 😩

river peak
#

No worries!

@soft dawn thanks for sharing. those are awesome. and thanks for teaching!
