Re: [Emc-users] FW: Cardinal Engineering - MAZAKS for sale

[Rainer Schmidt]

Those are grim times... I helped dissolve a shop here in NJ and every  
single machine a tad larger than a machine of interest for a hobbyist  
went for the scrap metal price. Large machines only 5 years old were  
flying into the trash.
A large precision lathe made in Germany... tight and flawless... went  
for $800.
The low offerings might be what is normal right now...
Best of luck!

Jeff just changed this yesterday.  The "configure" file is actually a 
generated file, and as such never really belonged in the repository.  It 
is made by the new "autogen.sh" script that was added when the configure 
script was removed.  So the compile procedure now is this:

cd emc2.git/src
./autogen.sh
./configure --blah --blah --blah
make
sudo make setuid


By the way, you can sort of look up the current canonical way to build 
the software by looking at how the buildbot does it.  Go to 
, look across the 
top row to find the build that's most similar to yours.  For example, if 
you're building Trunk (aka master), realtime (as opposed to sim), 
run-in-place (as opposed to .deb), on Hardy, on a 32-bit machine, click 
on hardy-x86-trunk-realtime-rip.  That page will show you the most 
recent builds of that configuration.  Click on the most recent green 
(successful) one.  That will take you to a webpage showing all the 
commands the buildbot ran, and their output.  From there it should be 
clear what to do.  (However, note that not every step the buildbot does 
is necessary or useful for developers following along at home.)

You need to run autoconf.  Since configure.in is a generated file, it 
was removed from the repository.

I think this can be done with "make configure" (this is just from 
looking at the makefile changes in the commit email).

Re: [Emc-users] Using MDI or Jog during a program?

[Leslie Newell]

That script will only work on a tool change. I don't think there is a 
way of running a script from M0 or M1.

Tim, is the weld line straight or a complicated shape? If I was doing it 
I think I would write a script to do all of it and bypass the g-code 
completely. Another alternative would be to write a script that grabs 
the current torch positions then generates a complete g-code program 
that you can then run.

This seems somewhat related to a recent request of mine. I had asked 
about being able to use MDI or manual modes during a tool change. Leslie 
provided me with a new hal_manualtoolchange which allowed me move etc. 
then hit continue and return to the program. In this case I would zero 
my z-axis or if necessary change other offsets as well. Then hit 
continue. I believe he did this in python. I can provide you a copy of

[Emc-users] FW: Cardinal Engineering - MAZAKS for sale

[Steve Stallings]

To all on the emc-users list,

Today I received an email from Roland. His auction is over and
he did not sell the Mazaks. His is offering them EMC folks since
one is already retrofitted with EMC. If you are interested, have
a look at the message below.

Cheers,
Steve Stallings

Subject: Cardinal Engineering - MAZAKS

Steve,
July 15, 2009
 
Not sure if this is still your email address but here goes -
 
As you probably know, I've been shutting down Cardinal Engineering - Health
problems and it's just time to "retire" -
 
I've had a lot of great messages, letters & phone calls from folks who
appreciated the CNC-Workshops, which is very gratifying - I had a lot of fun
doing it even though it was a LOT of work - HOME SHOP MACHINIST has made a
commitment to carry on with the CNC-Workshop in 2010 - I hope the economic
situation doesn't throw a spanner into their plans -
 
At any rate, I had an auction last week (July 8) and, refused to sell the
two MAZAK machining centers for the ridiculously low bids that were offered
- I thought that perhaps one or more of the EMC guys might have an interest
- I'm not sure how to contact them -
 
I've tried to contact Ray Henry and left messages but had no reply as yet -
Is he OK?
 
Could you put out the word that these two machines are available at any
reasonable (or even unreasonable) offer - A large forklift and a rigger will
be at the shop for the next two weeks - Loading is not a problem and might
cost $250 for each machine -
 
Hope your business is going well - I'm building a large garage behind my
house for a hobby machine shop and model airplane building area - Having the
car doors and insulation installed this week and next - (Not big enough for
a MAZAK) -
 
Unfortunately, our black cat, Boris, friendliest cat in the world, had a
stroke and had to be euthanized just yesterday - Everyone liked Boris and
the CNC-Workshops were his favorite time because he got to sit on so many
laps during the week - A surprisingly large percentage of the folks who
contacted me with regrets about the CNC-Workshop also mentioned Boris, so he
must have made a hit with lots of the guys -
 
I put a "Request Read Receipt" note on this message so that I know it got
through -
 
Roland Friestad
 
P.S. - My Cardinal Engineering e-mail is still active but I'm using this one
primarily - i...@fullsizeplans.com

Re: [Emc-users] Bug: Halui.spindle.forward is not the same as M03

[Leslie Newell]

The spindle on button in Axis exhibits the same behavior, though it 
initially commands a very low spindle speed instead of 500rpm. This is 
in trunk. I haven't tested the release version yet.

I have already switched over to using M3/M4 on my buttons.

[Emc-users] Bug: Halui.spindle.forward is not the same as M03

[Leslie Newell]

On my lathe I have spindle on/off buttons that are implemented using 
halui.spindle.forward and halui.spindle.stop. I have noticed some odd 
effects when using them.

Often the spindle starts at 500 RPM instead of the commanded speed. For 
instance if I enter M3S1000 in MDI the spindle runs at 1000rpm. Now if I 
use the buttons to stop and restart the spindle it often restarts at 
500rpm instead.

If using CSS, when I turn on the spindle using a button, CSS does not 
work until I use M03 or change the spindle speed in MDI or a program.

I just ran some further tests and you get similar results using the 
spindle on buttons in Axis, though the default speed is very low.
