00:25 < ybit> nice, someone from instructables just sent me the pdf: http://ybit.ath.cx/docs/papers/Build%20a%20Microwave%20Transformer%20Homeade%20Stick%20Arc%20Welder.pdf

00:33 < katsmeow-afk> ybit, compare the power input on a good growlbox to that of a microwave oven transformer
00:34 < katsmeow-afk> my gowlbox kicks a 30amp 240v breaker when doing serious welding , you can't put that much into a nukebox xformer
00:43 < katsmeow-afk> he talks about 1/16 rods, 3/32 rods, and 1/8 rods , i burn thru at least 100lbs of 1/8 rod every year, but never as much as 5lbs of 3/32, and i never use 1/16 rod
00:43 < katsmeow-afk> and 60xx rod is crap, do not trust your life to 6013 or 6011 rod
00:44 < katsmeow-afk> i use 7018 exclusively
00:46 < katsmeow-afk> dc is best
00:47 < katsmeow-afk> i used 600v 300amp low-drop diodes, i seldom go over 120amps
00:59 < ybit> thanks katsmeow-afk, that will probably be useful to know when i start welding
01:01 < katsmeow-afk> <curtsey>

10:13 < fenn> then when i want to walk the chain of transformations from one part to another, i traverse the graph and apply trsf's at each node

10:36 < ncravens> I'm watching some folk play with something called tent at #esp http://wiki.openkollab.com/wagn/Tent_Help 
10:37 < ncravens> the prompt: skdb-make robot-maid: failed: @#@#@$@SDL!!
10:42 < kanzure> hey ncravens
10:43 < kanzure> yeah fenn's working on that at the moment
10:44 < kanzure> ncravens: nice to see you in here
10:45 < ncravens> its nice to see you out there too man. 
10:45 < kanzure> what?
10:45 < ncravens> yes.
10:45 < kanzure> you never show up in here, why is that?
10:45 < kanzure> just wondering. thought you'd want to be up to date on the latest and greatest versions.
10:45 < ncravens> because , well, I got burnt on chatting years ago, but now I realize ... there's stuff worth chatting about now
10:46 < ncravens> latest and greatest versions of pink fluffy?!
10:46 < timschmidt> Hey guys, I've designed, and am starting to manufacture some Arduino clones with additional features (relays, power mosfets, temp and light sensors, and the like) for sale.  What would you like to see a purpose-built Arduino made to do?
10:46 < kanzure> oh, you're selling them?
10:46 < kanzure> you didn't tell me that, tim
10:47 < timschmidt> sorry
10:47 < timschmidt> didn't intend to not tell you.
10:47 < timschmidt> designs will be FOSS, of course.
10:47 < timschmidt> just building and selling for those who can't themselves.
10:49 < timschmidt> The one I'm nearly done with is based on a clone that was licensed GPLv3, so it will be too.
10:49 < fenn> i'd like a $10 temperature logger with optional 7 segment display
10:50 < timschmidt> easy enough
10:55 < ncravens> so how's the Austin lab shaping up?
10:56 < kanzure> it's moved to california
10:57 < kanzure> timschmidt: so, I think you should package up your kits into skdb
10:57 < kanzure> this is the exactly right scenario
10:57 < kanzure> they're GPL'd, you want to make some cash, and you need to get some more widespread knowledge of them, or something
10:57 < kanzure> and even if you don't want to make them forever, still making a couple hundred or something would make you happy (right?)
10:58 < ncravens> where in california? ;
10:58 < CIA-31> skdb: fenn * r 27d6e13 /doc/todo/TODO: doo
10:58 < CIA-31> skdb: fenn * r cd02214 / (geom/geom.py paths.py): now make_lego puts the brick in the scene such that interfaces[0] is at the origin and oriented along the Z axis
10:58 < kanzure> the coast
10:58 < kanzure> LA possibly
10:58 < kanzure> ncravens: the austin fabratory is still ticking away
10:58 < kanzure> however I might not stay here forever
10:59 < ncravens> where you have in mind?
10:59 < fenn> by "ticking" you mean that cricket noise when nobody's there?
10:59 < timschmidt> kanzure: first batch will be 100.  I would not be disappointed to make a few thousand.
10:59 < kanzure> ok, that's a lot of manual labor, but sure
10:59 < ncravens> kanzure: fenn: I'd like to get your input on this: http://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0ATsf-IaJ1pQxZGcyanpkZnRfMjc1aGN2YzdnZ2Q&hl=en
11:00 < kanzure> last I checked there was a few people over there
11:00 < kanzure> ncravens: if this is another openkollab thing, I'm going to puke
11:00 < ncravens> hehehe
11:00 < kanzure> i'm tired of you not listening
11:00 < kanzure> so I'm putting my foot down.
11:00 < ncravens> I'm listening. ;)
11:01 < fenn> i'm busy
11:01 < kanzure> did you see the skdb presentation, ncravens ?
11:02 < ncravens> where?
11:02 < kanzure> ncravens: http://adl.serveftp.org/lab/presentations/updates-from-austin.pdf
11:03 < kanzure> timschmidt: there was a huge thread on diybio once about this
11:04 < kanzure> timschmidt: http://groups.google.com/group/diybio/browse_frm/thread/f283180392f16cdd/7362d9da4b8bffdf?#7362d9da4b8bffdf
11:04 < kanzure> you might get some ideas there for stuff that people want
11:04 < kanzure> and have publicly admitted that they want :)
11:08 < timschmidt> thanks
11:08 < ncravens> kanzure: so what do you think of these espian folk?
11:08 < kanzure> not interested
11:20 < ncravens> have you talked to them about skdb? 
11:24 < kanzure> I mentioned it in #openkollab, no one was interested
11:28 < ncravens> have you mentioned it to #esp? 
11:29 < ncravens> slide 36 'Consideration: product as graph' reminds me of Minsky's model of AI.
11:30 < kanzure> luckily this doesn't require ai
11:31 < ncravens> for the parts that require hand entry... ai would be nice?

11:33 < ncravens> your friend Sam Rose is having a chat with Suresh Fernando at #openkollab
11:35 < ncravens> what does "f.s. c.f.g. d.a.m." on slide 36 mean? 
11:37 < ncravens> What evoked the ANGRY?
11:53 < CIA-31> skdb: fenn * r e386cbb /geom/geom.py: added skdb.Interface.get_transformation()
11:53 < CIA-31> skdb: fenn * r 6f809f8 /paths.py: playing with get_transformation(); implemented make_arrow_to()
12:01 < kanzure> ncravens: "FS" means "function structure"
12:01 < kanzure> "CFG" means "Configuration Flow Graph"
12:01 < kanzure> "DAM" means something about a matrix regarding assembly of a part
12:01 < kanzure> honestly that slide was thrown in from the lab professor
12:01 < kanzure> it's not really as useful as you might think it sounds :p
12:01 < ncravens> ahh... ic
12:03 < ncravens> I just saw nodes and links from what appeared to be baser or simple objects below creating higher level stuff; just applying a similar pattern Marvin Minsky used for AI... am I close?
12:03 < kanzure> no, the graphs have nodes which represent parts and the edges represent connections between parts
12:04 < kanzure> however, the lab's format for this is not developed- there's some software that uses it, but it's too generic and not useful for engineering
12:04 < kanzure> (it's for "conceptual" design)
12:06 < ncravens> which means?
12:06 < kanzure> that the computer can't use the information to do anything useful... so don't confuse it with skdb.
