katsmeowi am not seeing it as better than a poured form, unless you can't do forms00:00
ybitkatsmeow: poured form?00:01
katsmeowmake form, pour concrete intoit00:01
katsmeowit's intoitively stronger00:01
katsmeow;-)00:02
ybitah, we have a witty one our hands00:02
katsmeow:-)00:03
* ybit is reminded of eddie izzard's "ah yes, i can be a funny man, see"00:03
ybit..one of his god monologues00:03
ybitwow, i'm going to hate myself for staying up too late, gn Noahj, katsmeow 00:04
katsmeowjust remember, you are building underground, figure 200lbs/cuft of dirt load, and for every bit of concrete youleave out, or don't have in contact with the next concrete, you have weakness00:04
katsmeowk, gnite00:04
katsmeowi wonder if i can make a cheap low tolerance roller bearing for a 20 deg oscillating load, using drill rod, and sealed simply by gooing it with plain silicone sealant00:09
katsmeowbecause basically, i suspect no matter what, i'll be replacing them often, and if they are 10x cheaper and i replace 2x as often, i am ahead00:12
katsmeowidiot bearing site: they organise the bearings by OD, and list the ID as radius00:24
katsmeowwhat size shaft? oh, .25 radius00:24

bkeroBTW I got my bearings out :)01:41
bkeroExtraordinarily easy when you have the proper tools01:41
any73000628so they are replaceable?01:41
-!- genehacker [i=genehack@wireless-128-62-59-150.public.utexas.edu] has joined #hplusroadmap01:42
bkeroOh my yes01:42
bkeroThere's just a dust cover, and beneath that there's a small retainer with 6 bearings.  My retainer was smashed.01:42
any730006286 bearings?!01:43
bkeroI just greased it up, added some floating bearings, and it's good again.01:43
bkeroSorry, 7 on one side.  9 without the retainer01:43
any73000628most just have one bearingon each side01:43
bkeroI meant 6 balls01:43
bkero7 balls01:43
any73000628oh01:43
any73000628that's about right01:43
any73000628so, you now have a good-as-new rear axle for cheap :-)01:44
bkeroWell, no01:45
bkeroThe outer races of the bearing IS the wheel01:45
bkeroand that had terrible pitting01:45
bkeroSo I had to get a new wheel.  WHich came with new axle, bearings, etc01:45
bkeroand was $2901:45
any73000628sonds right01:46
any73000628i bought new front wheels, tires included, for ~$6001:46
any73000628it was actually a bad deal for me, but i needed the rims and spokes, tire and tube, that as all01:47
* any73000628 waves gnites01:50
bkeroNice01:53
bkeroWheels include rim, spokes, and axle.  Mine also included a quickrelease mechanism.01:53
bkeroHad to get a crappy new tire01:55

katsmeow-afkpicture a warehouse, 3ft elevated floor, filled with racks of backplanes with racks of transmetas on them, so much ram the harrdrives are all merely backup, and a row diesels for power, and a row of diesels for a/c, rows as long as the building is16:00
katsmeow-afki am sure they have extended the building by now, and prolly changed out the hardware since it was a DOE project back then16:02
katsmeow-afkit had it's own trunk str8 to a local power plant16:03
katsmeow-afkthey found the diesels used so much fuel that it was optional to install a small nuke power plant for long term power, trucking in fuel would have been cost-prohibitive,, i was thinking "pipeline?"16:04
